Howard came and did an initial estimated and bid for my first bathroom. We walked through the process and the contract and were off to the races. His crew was always on time and communicated regularly if something may have shifted. Howard was always checking in on the job itself. The first job went so well that I hired them for a second smaller bathroom remodel a few months later.

They only negative thing I would have to say is their drywall person, by the

Designs in Glass completed 2 tear down ("to the studs") bathroom remodels for us, and we are extremely happy with the end result. The only reason I couldn't check "On Time" was due to the Covid-19 Pandemic which really did a number on our schedule, but through no fault of Howard, Bob, and the crew. The team is highly consultative, which was very helpful to someone like me that doesn't know what they want. Howard was able to steer us towards other experts that really helped us make great selections. Everyone on their team was very professional. We had water leaks, improper venting, mold issues,
