Emily R. says, "I recently decided to remodel both my kitchen and bathroom in my 1981 home, and after meeting with seven different companies, I ultimately chose Benlo Remodeling. From the very beginning, Lorena and Benjamin stood out. They took the time to thoroughly explain every step of the process, answered all of my questions with patience, and made sure I felt confident in the decisions we were making."See more

The project finished in the time agreed upon even when we add another half bathroom to remodel that was not in the original scope of work. Really happy with Roy and his crew…definitely 5 stars and recommend to my friends and family."See more

Nancy Leaf says, "I needed handholding, as I had never done a kitchen remodel, and I was very nervous. I chose Dynamite because Spencer took a lot of time with me, listened, and was interested in helping make my vision reality. I found Dynamite on Angie's List, I typed in my info and project details, clicked submit, and literally within 3 minutes my phone rang. Spencer came to my home when it was convenient for me and wrote up a contract that afternoon. It inspired me to say yes and sign. The job timeline was basically met. The workers were smart, respectful, and listened to what I wanted. The finished product is wonderful. We did all new flooring, brand new kitchen, painting, lighting, a built-in unit - my house is totally elevated and I love it. The result makes all the pain and discomfort of construction worth it. I am so glad I found Dynamite."See more

Ashley Naillon says, "I cannot recommend JonesTown Builders enough! They are very professional and communicative. My house was trashed by renters and they went above and beyond to get it back in top shape, looking like the day I bought it. Pricing was great and they were so easy to work with. If you need anything done to your home, look no further!"See more
