Yes go somewhere else. They are crazy expensive! Try American Dream Cabinetry and compare. Or any other remodeling company.

Ask whomever you decide to go with if they have an electrician to relocate the switches and outlets and make sure the holes are the correct size, I have seen 2 or 3 projects where the holes were too large and the electrical boxes had to be jury rigged to stay in place. In another case the hole was moved and the wires were too short. Also if you decide to get a new sink, check to see if they have a plumber if the air trap needs to be relocated.

I used Doc’s for significant renovations in my house and am very pleased. They were attentive, professional, managed the work teams and I was totally happy with everything. Every work team was high quality and did their work as scheduled. No complaints, and I did not find the costs our of line at all.

There have been many positive comments about Doc's in past threads. We asked them for an estimate for some work and were impressed with their presentation. However, in the end we chose to be our own general contractor rather than pay Doc's price.

We only had a couple minor issues that were not too difficult to resolve. If we had gone with Doc's they would have worked to resolve the issues for us.

Rafael on 301 in Oxford. He did our floors thru out with wood last March. Just completed our 2 baths.

Craftsmanship is outstanding and customer service the best. You talk to Rafael direct. Can’t be more pleased.

Crews cleaned up each day. The demo was seamless. No delays in scheduling. 2 weeks for both baths and laundry room floor. Tile guys know their trade.

“Do not” confuse Rafael with Roberto’s. They are two separate companies now.

I had Roberto’s come to give an estimate and when I called back with questions zero return call.

Get several estimates. Rafael is very fair pricing.

Meant to add Rafaels painted our kitchen and bath cabinets which now look brand new plus new counters. I used a leather granite for kitchen counter and backsplash. Took pony wall down.

Their granite fabricator Angel is the best. She is knowledgeable about the biz and her guys matched up the flow of the big pieces to perfection. Everyone comments how unique it looks.

I didn’t want quartz. Had in past and to me it’s a step up from cultured marble. Cheaper quartz will scratch.

They do excellent work but also charge top dollar. A good option for some, but not for others.

If you already hired them kind of late now to ask. Where were they compared to the other quotes and who did you feel most comfortable

Any company that takes out full page ads in the Daily Sun on a regular basis is probably charging more for their services than most.

Yep. I got quotes from them and they were way higher than anyone else.

They bid on our kitchen and baths. Were 50% hgher than others and admitted that they were higher. For a 1-2 trade job(like yours) go to a a kitchen re modeler

We used Ultimate Granite for all our countertops. They take care of the whole job including the plumbing. Zero complaints.
