We enjoyed working with A Better Home for finishing our basement. This was a big project! They were very collaborative, creative, and helpful with the design and planning from the beginning. The team and contractors were kind and great to work with. The effort and quality of work exceeded expectations. We love our new basement which includes a family area, guest bedroom, bathroom and home gym. We look forward to working with A Better Home again when we remodel our master bath and kitchen someday.

The A Better Home team completed our kitchen remodel during the midst of the pandemic. They were wonderful to work with, from the initial design through to completion. I most appreciated how well they communicated with us and that they were respectful of our time and space. We have been extremely happy with the quality of their work. Vashon paid great attention to detail and made sure that everything was done to perfection! We appreciated his craftsmanship and integrity. This company truly cares about doing the job right! Great people and great quality!

We were very pleased with our kitchen remodel project with A Better Home. The team adeptly handled all the details from helping us pick out finishes to our old-house peculiarities to the beautiful craftsmanship of the finished room.

After the flood in 2018 our entire lower level flooded. A Better Home not only fixed the damage from the flood, but they turned our wonderful house into an amazing home. They repaired things that were out of code, improved flow and appearance, and even turned one awkward room into two bedrooms for our growing family. This team of remodelers won't let you down - their work is beautiful, craftsmanship is on top, and their customer service is spot on. Most recently they finished replacing our old and scary deck. The new deck is beautiful, safe, and beautiful! We look forward to them returning to do some more work on the inside.
