Best Home Improvements have worked wonders in my home. After a very successful bathroom remodel, we started talking about a “small” project to accommodate a new, larger refrigerator in my kitchen. I soon realized what I really wanted was a full-fledged kitchen remodel. Paul took all of my ideas and expanded on them, turning an old, outdated galley kitchen into a vibrant, easy-to-work-in kitchen with fabulous new cabinets, appliances and countertops. Best Home Improvements also installed a new beam across the kitchen/family room connection, resulting in a larger open space for family gatherings in the kitchen, dining room and family room. The guys who worked on the project were skilled and friendly and always made sure they cleaned up every evening. I'm looking forward to our next project together.

Paul, Kevin, John and team are courteous and professional from estimate to project conclusion including protection of the home from drop cloths to plastic sheathing to cardboard protection. Project was 2nd story full master bath remodel except vanities but including 3 doorways reframing and pocket door removals, window removals, framing over opening where 2 were located and move of 3rd one, new shower pan and tile surround and free standing tub and faucet including feature tile wall / shelf ledge behind it, new toilet, tile floor and wainscot with Schlueters. They handled all job aspects including plumbing move for both shower and tub, electrical including new fan for 2nd bath added on, demolition, rough and finish carpentry and tile work.
Paul was always responsive to my questions as the project progressed and provided insight to our design along the way. I'm sure he may have tired of my clarification requests as enough knowledge to recognize quality install on job vs. shortcuts, none which were taken.
Any major remodel has bumps along the way but any that occurred were quickly addressed by the team. Project done per estimate with minor change orders done at our request. We had most design materias already on hand, as contractor prior to finding this team unable to perform due to injury. Fortunately Paul, Kevin and team available on short turn around from estimate to job start. Thanks Best Home Improvements for making what can be a harrowing experience a stress free event all along the way. Pat & Donna

Paul has supervised several small to medium projects for us since 1992. These jobs were in the cities of Seattle, Bellevue, and Renton Washington. They ranged in scope from room additions to complete bathroom and kitchen renovations.
Paul always stood out from most contractors because of his honesty, clear communication, on-time completion, and bringing the projects within our budget.
He thoroughly planned each project, made sure we understood what was being done, and kept us informed of the progress, and problems that arose, throughout the span of the job.
As Paul apprised us from the outset, construction goes without any hitches, only in heaven. We were able to be involved in all decisions, including change orders, and schedule or budget adjustments. What minor bumps occurred were dealt with promptly, courteously, and to our eventual satisfaction beyond our expectations.
Paul and his very reliable craftsmen/women were professional in appearance, manners, and respectful of our privacy and listened closely to our concerns. We felt very comfortable having them in our home.
Without sounding like a white wash job, Paul has obviously learned from the mistakes of other contractors, and made the adjustments that have made his company avoid most problems that arise due to lack of planning and his employees and subcontractors obviously reflect Paul's values of constant, and clear, honest communication between Company personnel and us, the client.
We would not hesitate to offer the highest recommendation for Best Home Improvements. Paul leaves a good impression of Home Improvement and Remodeling in our memories.

Paul has done a variety of work on my rentals and on my several personal residences over the past 20 years. He called my number by mistake in 1994, and it turned out I was looking for someone to build me some steps, so it wasn't a wrong number after all--it was a fortunate coincidence. He is skilled in every phase of construction, knows the code, and never takes shortcuts which jeopardize the finished work, be it plumbing, electrical, painting, or remodeling/construction. Paul knows what tools to use and that makes all the difference in time required to do a job and the quality when it is done. Paul has built two storerooms for me, rebuilt a porch, I've seen balconies he has rebuilt, he's installed linoleum in several of my rentals, laid tile, remodeled a kitchen picking out beautiful cabinets, remodeled several bathrooms, put in a jetted tub, repaired water damaged sheetrock, texturing/painting (he's done lots of that for me), repaired a water leak in foundation wall, found where windows were leaking and repaired them, installed dining room fans, redid the ducting and installed bathroom fans where there were none, switched out all the old interior doors for 6-panel doors, installed mirrored sliders, installed vertical blinds and window blinds, opened the stairway wall to facilitate air circulation, squared the exterior storeroom doors so they closed properly, replaced all the exterior locks, replaced the interior door knobs installed recessed lights, hid all the wires in the wall behind the TV, he's a master at making molding look great and fixing the weird spots so they aren't noticeable. The tile around my fireplace I love--it is marble and stainless steel tiles we found at Lowe's--he picked it out. To coordinate, Paul used stainless steel tiles again and burgundy colored glass tiles (from Lowe's again) for the kitchen. It coordinates so well. And that is one thing Paul has--a good eye for decorating ideas. He's replaced toilets, sinks, vanities, you name it. Once he found a pin hole leak in the bathroom wall behind the toilet that no one else had been able to find. I'm rambling here trying to recall all the various projects he has done for me. One thing where Paul has been a great help is acting as a consultant. When I had water in my dining room he was very helpful in filtering what the various contractors told me so that they could not take advantage of my lack of knowledge. He did the same with regard to slab jacking. Once [unnamed plumbing company] gave me a $3500 estimate to replace the pressure relief valve at the water meter, when I told Paul he steered me on the right path--the $600 path. He advised me when I had all the windows replaced in a triplex I owned. He did the same when I got a 40-year roof and new gutters. It is no small task painting a 3-story building and he supervised that too. Five stars aren't enough really. I've seen him manage a crew and I've seen him work alone. I probably left off some of the work Paul has done for me, he's my first choice for anything and everything to do with remodeling and new construction. It is too bad that my name and email are not shown with this recommendation because I would be happy to talk to you about the work Paul has done for me over the years. Since I'm an attorney, I can add, tongue in cheek, that I make this declaration under penalty of perjury under the laws of State of Washington . . .

My wife and I had a contractor who remodeled our kitchen and simply created a disaster. I hired Best Home Improvement and they were fantastic! John, Kevin and Paul have have one thing that is lacking in today's contractors, pride in workmanship. They are perfectionists, hard workers, professional and easy to work with.. We have hired many contractors over the years but John, Kevin and Paul are the very best of them all. I highly recommend them and they will be returning to our home for future projects.
