Advanced Construction And Design

Libby, John and their crew finished my job in the time frame they had told me.Everything went like clockwork. The crew of workers that John and Libby have are wonderful people. This was a wonderful experience and was my first remodel.

I have been meaning to do this review for a very long time. Before 2019 is over I wanted to share my experience and how thankful I am. I had water damage a year ago in December that came from my upstairs master bathroom that went into my kitchen. After calling my insurance and making a claim I looked online and found advanced construction and design read the reviews and gave them a call. They came immediately and assessed my damage, dealt with my insurance and took the necessary steps which can be a lengthy process. Long story short they did such an amazing job with my kitchen I couldnt be more satisfied with the project. They gave me a calendar/timeline with who was coming what was being done. John and his crew were very professional at all times. His designer works closely with you to have the best result. They were even able to get me more money for my repairs. I cant express enough my gratitude. As a homeowner you want things done right, the quality of the cabinetry, counters and work is of high scale. I will continue to refer to them and use them for future projects because after a beautiful kitchen I need new floor. :))

We couldn’t be happier with John and Libby and the entire crew at Advanced Construction. Our 1970’s kitchen was in major need of an update. After years of thinking about it we knew we wanted to maintain the existing footprint in every way because it suited our needs. We had done A LOT of cooking in that kitchen and knew well how we used it. The idea was to change out EVERYTHING within that footprint with new and more functional cabinetry, surfaces, flooring, lighting, and appliances—on a strict budget. I knew from the first phone call with Libby that we would work well together. She’s a designer and I’m an artist who likes COLOR and Libby was so receptive. Their initial quote was clear and detailed enough that we could toss things out here and there that were beyond our budget without harm to the overall plan. When we made our first visit to the design studio, Libby and I were like gleeful kids, playing with materials I’d brought in and drawing from her collection of samples and colors. Demolition started right on time and the detailed schedule kept us abreast of what was happening when. The crew consists of delightful folks John and Libby have used for years, and who work together seamlessly. Communication was a breeze during every step of the project. Our new kitchen is beautiful. Advanced Construction gets an A+ from us.

Our kitchen remodel was a A+. Priced right and ahead of schedule. My wife and I couldn’t be happier. Upstairs bathroom next. Let’s go!!

Update: Six months later still no touch up paint as promised and still no final adjustment on cabinet doors as promised.Update 2: 4 months. No paintUpdate 1: 2 months after the owners wife promised us some touch up paint, no touch up paint. Unfortunately, this is typical behavior for her to tell a story that isnt true.From schedule issues to paint issues we never quite felt like a valued customer. Additionally, owners wife told me more than once that the cabinet guy would come back and adjust all my doors straight and show me how to adjust them. That never happened. Additionally, the owners wife promised us some leftover paint so we could do touch up. Again, no joy. Now she is telling stories about how great they did. They just arent trustworthy to do anything they tell me they will do. I caution everyone to be careful here. If I could give them zero stars, I would.

Updated to say that the company’s response is not entirely accurate. There was little discussion on finances during the walk through of our kitchen. I had been quoted a price higher than my initial budget over the phone and if I had been solid that it was out of our price range I obviously would not have had the company come out at all. The fairly major changes they wanted to make to the kitchen were not presented as options for keeping within our budget. Nothing was said one way or the other and I assumed knocking out walls etc would just raise the budget. When they left our house nothing was said at all about a “final review of our project to see if they could work it out.” We were literally told that we would receive a quote in three weeks. That was the only discussion of finances. I hesitated to post this update but it’s unfair of the company to represent the situation falsely.We did not use this company - this review is based solely on having them come out to give us a quote. Kind and personable on the phone and in person. But from the outset you could tell they wanted to make drastic expensive changes to my kitchen. I stopped that line of thinking as we don’t need more cabinets, just convenient cabinets (I have four blind corner cabinets). They make it sound like this company can customize your cabinets to what you want. Well, almost everything I really wanted and cared about they ‘couldn’t do.’ For instance, an 18 inch pantry cupboard with pull outs. They said it had to be 24 inches. (We just bought an 18 inch one at Home Depot. Obviously it can be done.) And the other things I wanted, the lady would give her own ideas/opinions and kind of just disregard mine. When they left they said it would probably be three weeks before we got a quote. But here’s the kicker - this visit was in March and here it is the end of July. We never received our quote. Maybe they could tell by the end of the visit that we were unlikely to use them. Maybe they thought the project was too small to be with their time. Whatever the reason we’ve had zero communication from this company and I find that incredibly unprofessional.

I would highly recommend John Strain and Advanced Construction and Design and have given them a 5 star rating! Not only did John and his crew do a fantastic job, but I was under strict time constraints as to when the job had be be completed. He and his team worked literally night and day to ensure that it was finished on schedule. The workers were friendly, professional, on time and thorough. They did a variety of jobs including bathroom/kitchen remodel with great design suggestions, painting, plumbing, and electrical upgrades. They even did some extra small jobs for me to help me out! His price was very fair, and if there was a problem, it was taken care of right away. (We realized the roof had a leak.) I felt like this company not only does quality work, but truly cares about their customers.

My Hero!!!! The expert designer came out right away and helped me choose beautiful colors for the outside of our home. We will enjoy this new look, AND it will surely help when it comes time to sell. She was also affordable, and so very kind. I cant say enough about her. :)

Last year, Advanced Construction and Design remodeled our guest bathroom. We were so impressed with their designing, scheduling, and workmanship, we hired them this year to up-date our kitchen. Again, we are thrilled with the results. It was a pleasure to work with Libby and John. We certainly appreciated their quick phone calls or texts back to us when we had a question or concern. Their team of craftsmen did beautiful work, were friendly, and very respectful of our home. They are a company with heart and take care to keep customers comfortable, informed, and happy. We highly recommend Advanced Construction and Design.--Cheryl M.

I would highly recommend using Advanced Construction and Design! They were professional, quick, and detailed with care to my home as if it were their own. I will be using them again in the future! From start to even after care , I am happy I chose them . Thank you so much.

I could not recommend this company enough. We had a fantastic experience from the very first call. I felt like they always wanted to make us have a great experience and really cared about their customer service. Our new island looks amazing thanks to Advanced Construction and Design! Thank you!!!

John and his team did a great job with our small upstairs bath. It was a tight space, but the vanity and cupboard they added were custom and made a huge difference in the functionality of the space. The designer we worked with understood our vision and gave us many options. The fixtures and finishes they suggested were within our price-range making the whole experience pleasant rather than stressful. The team finished the project on time and followed the timeline. Overall, we recommend Advanced Construction and Design.

John and Libby are an absolute joy to work with! They turned our gross, old main bathroom into a gorgeous space that look forward to spending time in. The custom cabinets are premium quality as are all the other materials they work with, so know my bathroom will last and add value to our house for a long time. was definitely well worth the cost. Thank you Libby, John, and the whole team!

This company is so helpful and gave so much information to make our little project smooth sailing. Libby is amazing and so helpful. Highly recommend. Thanks so much for going above and beyond.

Advanced Construction and Design have been our go-to for several home projects (big and small). We love working with them!

John has helped us with all kinds of house projects, from broken pipes, to putting up drywall, to fixing a leak on our roof to installing a proper drain for our water heater. Each time he completed the work skillfully and exactly as promised. I can tell you from experience that John is a trustworthy contractor and would definitely recommend him!

John was exceptional! On-time! Polite! Superb Service! Explained every step that was needed! Kept everything clean! Fast! PROFESSIONAL! Highly, Highly recommend for all your home construction needs (new/maintenance/repairs)!!!

My family and I had an amazing experience working with John and his staff. I have to begin by saying that Johns staff werent people he employed, he treated them as family and everyone we encountered worked well with each other. That dynamic helped to make our remodel smooth and pleasant. Johns designer was marvelous to work with. She had an intuitive grasp on my design aesthetic and always let me bounce ideas off of her while keeping me grounded, realistic and most importantly on budget! In addition, she made sure to see things from all angles, thinking and suggesting things that I never would have on my own. As a result, our kitchen and pantry are not only beautiful but extremely efficient and functional. In my opinion, the thing that made our remodel so successful, pleasant and smooth was the collaborative nature between the designer and I. We came together to create something beautiful and John and his fabulous team made the kitchen and pantry a reality. The execution, craftsmanship, and professionalism that went into our kitchen will last the test of time. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for helping us realize a dream!

John and his team did a small bathroom remodel for us and it was really nice working with them! From the estimate to selecting the beautiful tile and cabinets was a great experience. John gave us a very fair price and did everything we asked in the time we requested. There were no surprises! Johns personality was a Bonus too! Such a genuine person. Thank you John and Advanced team! We Will be calling you for our kitchen remodel Very Soon!

John was at our house in a day to do the free estimate on a deck demolition and rebuild. His estimate was way below the other estimate we had. It was a quality job that was done in four days. He also gave us suggestions on how we could make other improvements. We will be having him back to do more work on the house.

John Strain at advanced construction and design as well as his crew and designer took my drab kitchen to fabulous. They did it on time and on budget, and made a stressful situation calm and fun. I received new custom cabinets, granite countertops, and new laminate flooring. I highly recommend advanced construction and design to anyone considering a kitchen remodel.
