Reviews and Testimonials for O'Brien Construction
Organization and trust are Kevin's key attributes. His proposal is detailed and understandable. He takes pride in his tile work and is a perfectionist. The shower turned out beautiful. We highly recommend Kevin.
We just moved to the area and had no local contacts for remodeling. We interviewed several remodeling firms and after meeting with Kevin, it was clear who our choice was going to be. Kevin showed up prepared and early to every meeting we had with him. We needed a one stop contractor that could provide a design for our basement finish, vendors for materials and sub contractors for the labor. The process was easy for us and Kevin made sure what our responsibilities were and how to accomplish them. Once work began, the progress he made in just the first week was amazing to us. Kevin met with all the building inspectors to make sure everything passed on the first inspection. Kevin along with his team have amazingly high standards to which they fiercely adhere to. Our new basement looks like it was built right along with the rest of the house making the whole house feel as one. From the first meeting through the design phase all the way until completion, Kevin handled everything like a true professional. Please do yourself a favor and hire Kevin and his team for your renovation, you will be glad you did!
What to say but Thank You! We want to let everyone know what a fantastic job O'Brien Construction did on our bathroom renovation. We hired another contractor who tried to remodel our bathroom to no avail and we promptly fired him. We were stuck as we had already paid the other guy way too much. I contacted Kevin based on a recommendation from my neighbor who used him a couple of years ago. By this time we had a un-usable, partially completed bathroom and needed it to be completed. Kevin met with us and gave us a new direction for our project. In 2 weeks Kevin and his team had taken our bathroom from un-usable to complete and functional. His tile work is impeccable as I watched him remove a tile that was slightly off and replace it with one that was perfect. Kevin is a perfectionist and demands his sub-contractors give the same type of service to his clients. We are having him back to renovate our basement later this year. Thanks again and we look forward to having you back!
To Whom it may concern: I had to write a note to let you know just how fantastic our new bathroom looks. We had a party over the holidays and all of our guests simply loved the new bathroom! I think it was a bigger hit than the party itself! The heated floor is just too good to be true, as this bathroom was always cold and never seemed to warm up. Kevin removed the bathtub and installed a new jetted bathtub, a shower with a bench and new vanity's. Kevin also made us 2 custom recess shower niches that hold all of our shower products. We can't say enough good things about Kevin and his company other than, hire him, sit back and relax.
In a business where average makes the grade, Kevin shines above all the rest. He is attentive, returns call and emails promptly and offers a strong warranty. I know because after I hired Kevin to remodel my basement bathroom, I had a leak coming from the shower. Kevin was at my house the next morning before work so I wouldn't miss any time. He and the plumber diagnosed the problem which was a faulty shower door threshold. Kevin's glass company came by at noon and by the time I returned home from work that day it was fixed. I can attest that not only does Kevin talk a good game more importantly he follows through. Thanks for being a reputable contractor!
When the time came to finish our basement we had many choices for contractors. After meeting with 3 others that we felt just didn't match our expectations we called O'Brien Construction. Kevin sat with us for over an hour listening to what we had planned and offered alternatives without disregarding our original ideas. My wife is a very visual person so it was important to me that she could envision her new workout room. Well when Kevin came back for the proposal presentation, he had a surprise for us. A full color rendering of what our new basement and more importantly my wife's workout room would like with the colors she wanted. We knew that we had found our guy. In just a couple of weeks we had the permit and construction began. Kevin is very well organized and our project ran like clockwork, which to me is amazing because at times there were 4 different sub-contractors all working together under Kevin's watchful eye. Fantastic finishes, well thought out design and great project management made our basement project turn out exactly like we wanted it to.
Thanks again for the basement remodel. We wanted to thank Kevin and his amazing team of sub-contractors who are experts in their field for completing our basement remodel on time and on budget. Our kids are always downstairs now and we can finally enjoy the basement with them. Kevin's level of detail is second to none. Ask about the 3-D design program, it's incredible!
We are please with our new bathroom. Kevin does incredible work and is very organized. Our new shower is amazing and better than we imagined it! We can't wait to do our other bathroom as well.
Before hiring Kevin we spoke with several contractors but didn't feel that we matched. Kevin was on time, every time, listened to our concerns and ave us a design that worked with our budget. I had remodeled a bathroom before with another contractor so I thought I knew how this project would go. A world of difference from Kevin to everyone else. He (Kevin) knows his business and uses some of the best sub-contractors around. Please do yourself a favor and hire Kevin for that basement finish today! you won't regret it.
WOW! 'Is this the same bathroom?' That is everyone's reaction to our remodeled bathroom. We had an outdated, barely usable basement bathroom in our Washington Park Bungalow. Kevin and his team removed the entire bathroom and re-did everything. We now have a walk-in shower, clawfoot tub, vent fan, and new lighting. I have to say that working with Kevin and his team was easy and effortless on our part. Kevin talks about his remodeling process a lot and we knew what to expect ahead of time. We will definitely hire Kevin to tackle our outdated kitchen.
We are thrilled to have our basement finished by O'Brien Construction! Kevin designed, built and completed our 1000 sq foot basement in Highlands Ranch, Colorado. We hired Kevin based on his experience, willingness to listen to what we wanted for our basement. Kevin offered suggestions and alternatives that made sense and helped us avoid some design pitfalls. When we were looking for a contractor, we met a couple other contractors but when we met Kevin he stood above the rest, his proposal was well over 8 pages long and un-believably detailed as was the 3-D design that helped us see what our material choices would like like before committing to any colors. He also employs sub-contractors of the highest caliber and the cleanest crews we have ever seen! We highly recommend Kevin and O'Brien Construction.
From the beginning I could tell Kevin was in a different league than the other contractors that I talked to. He is very professional and only hires sub-contractors that meet his high standards. We agreed on changes along the way as mold and other hazards were found. One of the things that I really appreciated about Kevin was his patience in explaining everything to me and never pressuring me to do additional work. I never imagined my basement could look so good We talked a lot about the look I wanted and he offered good suggestions. His tile work is beautiful. The clearance in my stairway was not up to Denver building code. Kevin worked with the building department to find an agreeable solution. Another thing I really liked about working with Kevin is he doesn't forget you when he finishes the job. He called me a few weeks after completion to make sure everything was okay and came back promptly to correct a couple minor issues. I've already hired Kevin to remodel my other bathroom.
We met with Kevin a few times before we decided to hire him. He always made sure to make his appointments on time. We wanted to hire someone with attention to detail who would do quality work and decided to go with Kevin after referrals and our meetings with him. This was not an easy job but Kevin knows old houses and knew exactly what he had to do to and more importantly, what kind of problems he expected to run into. He discovered some issues from faulty work done many years ago and was really good about communicating the problem and what our solutions were. Everything was done when he said it would be and his subcontractors were superior. I am very picky about remodeling and Kevin not only lived up to my high standards but he did a good job handling all my questions and issues. He is a very good communicator and that really helped during this project. I would highly recommend O"Brien Construction - especially if you have rooms in an old house that need remodeling. He really knows his stuff. I wanted a high end bathroom and that's what I got.
Kevin O’Brien is very professional and has great organizational skills. His subcontractors were sequenced very efficiently so that the project did not experience delays. Kevin knows the value of good communication with clients, and each time I spoke with him he always asked if I had any questions or concerns. He also communicated well with my condo management regarding water shutoffs, flooring noise-control underlayment, and the insurance policy he carried. He and his subs always showed up at the scheduled time, and the work areas (as well as the condo halls) were always cleaned at the end of the day. The subcontractors did work of exceptional quality. Kevin was a good problem solver, and came up with the idea of a steel bar to support one end of my granite bar overhang rather than a bulky corbel. The project was 90% done in five weeks (when he had estimated 6-7 weeks). And I moved back into the kitchen at that point. However, finishing the project took another four months! There were mistakes on the part of the distributor, manufacturer, and installer of the (high-end, custom) cabinets. (The fillers in the lower cabinets were not wide enough, so a drawer wouldn’t open because it bumped into the oven handle and two cabinet doors hit appliances. The pantry doors arrived configured differently than ordered. The re-ordered doors weren’t colormatched and had to be ordered a third time. Pantry roll-outs weren’t deep enough to use the available space.) Lesser contractors would have disappeared when these problems arose, but Kevin vowed he would finish the project to my satisfaction. He worked with his cabinet distributor to order some new doors, filler, end panel, roll-outs, and drawer fronts. He even had to recut granite and reconfigure a kneewall to solve the drawer-bumping problem. For only two days during the final four months was there any construction mess in my kitchen. Of course, I wish that the project had been completed in 7 weeks, but I am going to live with this kitchen for years and am glad that it was completed correctly. Kevin can be trusted; he knows the value of a good reputation. I felt like Kevin was my partner in trying to achieve a great project outcome, rather than just a person I had hired. I wanted perfection, a high-end kitchen, and warranted work and Kevin delivered. Even with my problems I can easily recommend O’Brien Construction.
I intend to have Kevin complete the remodel of my master bathroom in the near future, and I would recommend his work to anyone. O'Brien Construction is top notch!
Communication was easy, open and honest throughout the project. I would definitely hire O'Brien Construction again.
