“We have worked with AJ for over 12 years through multiple major renovations and home projects. Among all of the other contractors that we have worked with (both good and bad), AJ is the only one that we have trusted for both major and related minor work. He embodies what we believe are the most important qualities of a contractor for large projects: he is detail-oriented, transparent about scope of work, timing, pricing, and process, and communicative throughout about good and bad developments. When there are issues or problems, he is great at listening, being patient, and taking a collaborative approach. He and his crew are respectful and mindful of how challenging and intrusive major work can be. We have never hesitated to recommend him to multiple other homeowners, including other friends, over the years.
For our first DC row home (built in 1907), AJ carried out a major floor repair (rotting subfloor and joists of a cantilevered portion of the dining room), a whole kitchen renovation that involved removing part of the original back wall and consolidating original house with 1st floor addition footprint, whole renovation of three and a half bathrooms, a whole basement renovation, and buildout of multiple new closets, both large (8 ft) and small(3 ft).
He also recently completed a whole DC freestanding house renovation (built in 1927) for us that involved removing a first floor load-bearing wall to create a open kitchen/dining space, tearing down an addition and building it again from ground up, and creating four new bedrooms, a laundry room, one new bathroom. He also renovated two and a half existing bathrooms and the basement as well.
