House Calls provides a critical element to any home owner contemplating a renovation project. That element is confidence. I found Jay Charendoff on HomeStars when I was considering how to update my 65-year old, mostly original bungalow. I was loathe to spend money piece-meal on a bathroom then a kitchen, then ventilation... and everything seemed tied to everything else. i just didn't know where to start. It also dawned on me that I have absolutely no expertise in how to "buy" major construction services and I needed an expert "in my corner". With Jay at the helm, we now have a clearer picture of what will happen - including moving the kitchen to the back of the house - something I would simply never have considered! I'm a firm believer in planning up front - especially if you're going to spend big bucks on a project. Planning saves costs and helps maximize value. Jay has already saved me thousands on the kitchen project by evaluating vendors and ranking them by cost/performance. I know once we get to the construction phase, it will be money well spent - all with proper engineering drawings, city permits, and inspections. I now expect to get exactly what we designed. I can spend with confidence. If you're like me and not quite sure where to start with your home reno, you should call Jay and chat about your project. I recommend him without reservation. Very Satisfied Customer, Thierry J

Company Response

Thanks for the very positive review. In this business, like most, one needs to be fortunate to have a great client. This is a project where the Owner has been very diligent and patient about "getting it right", including working with our recommended Interior Designer. Once it's finally built, it will be a fantastic place.
