Southern Maine Remodeling, Inc.

We cannot say enough about the great work and people from Southern Maine Remodeling. We had a major bedroom renovation done. We removed a horrible closet and built a brand new walk-in closet, complete with gorgeous custom shelving and drawers. Travis was wonderful at helping us imagine and choose the best floor plan. The crews were wonderful. The day they stood in the closet space patiently while I brought in pants, shirts and dresses for them to create the hanging rods at exactly the right height was pretty memorable. They were flexible and willing to do everything we wanted. We also worked with their companion company, the Skylight company. They were respectful and clean. You could eat off the floor every day when they left. No smoking, bad language, a real pleasure to have around. Highly recommend them!

MARCH 18, 2016, THIS IS OUR SECOND PROJECT WITH TRAVIS BLAKE. HE INSTALLED A NEW KITCHEN FOR US A DECADE AGO WHILE WORKING FOR MAINE PROPERTIES. THAT REMODEL WAS A TOUGH PROJECT BUT TRAVIS HANDLED IT WITH GRACE AND GOOD SPIRIT AND MINIMIZED OUR DISCOMFORT WITH NOT HAVING A WORKING KITCHEN FOR A SHORT PERIOD. THE QUALITY OF HIS WORK WAS AMAZING, A DECADE LATER WE STILL GET OH'S AND AH'S WHEN SOMEONE FIRST SEES THE KITCHEN. NATURALLY I CALLED HIM AGAIN FOR OUR CURRENT PROJECT. HIS BID WAS FAIR AND QUITE REASONABLE CONSIDERING THE QUALITY OF HIS WORK. HE AND I REVIEWED THE WORK TO BE ACCOMPLISHED WITH EMPLOYEES TIM MURRY AND CHRIS MACISSO. ONCE AGAIN THE WORK WAS COMPLETED IN QUICK TIME WITH EXCEPTIONAL CUSTOM QUALITY. STEVE MACISSO IS CURRENTLY PAINTING THE PROJECT WITH EQUAL LEVEL OF QUALITY AND WILL BE COMPLETED IN ONE MORE DAY. I DEFINITELY RECOMMEND TRAVIS AND HIS COMPANY, SOUTHERN MAINE REMODELING. SINCERELY, STEPHEN C. RENDALL SR. PORTLAND, MAINE

Southern Maine Remodeling was recommended by a former neighbor who had used them for a kitchen. Home Depot Kitchen Designer Donna Boylan (also recommended by 2 former neighbors) completed the layout, specified the appliances, cabinets, hardware, and lighting to purchase as a one time all in package. I also contracted SMR through Home Depot as part of the all in pricing for the job. Travis Blake of SMR did the estimates for the install, electrical, plumbing and removal of a non structural wall. The coordination was great and I love the result. Home Depot and SMR worked seamlessly and all subs were courteous and were great at communication.

I've used Southern Maine Remodeling for 2 bathrooms and a kitchen renovation. The entire team is very professional from quote to finish. They treated my home like it was their own--the job site was cleaned at the end of every day and while unexpected problems happen with every renovation, their commitment to satisfactory resolution is outstanding.

We have worked with Southern Maine Remolding's owner Travis Blake for previous jobs. When we decided to renovate our home to accomodate a studio space, we did not hesitate to contact Mr. Blake to bid on the job. We took an existing space above the garage and turned it into a studio space. The entryway features a 1 1/2 story book wall with storage space under the stairs as well as a custom steel railing. A mudroom was added with cubbies and a flip up bench for additional storage. An extra room was added behind the expanded entryway for guests, featuring a wood stove and barn door for guest privacy when needed. We took down a first floor bedroom wall to expand the kitchen and dining room space (and the mudroom). Posts and beams were added to create an open concept throughout the first floor. The central wall separating the kitchen from the living room was changed to expand the width of the kitchen, making room for an island. Hardwood flooring was laid throughout the first floor as well as in the studio, except in the entryway and mudroom where tile was placed. The first floor bathroom was updated, removing one closet and updating the other, while adding a pocket door. The stairs were also switched to hardwood flooring as well as the upstairs hallway. The master bedroom was dormered due to previous window placements, per code, which allowed space for a new walk in closet. The scope of the project was huge. We chose to stay in the house throughout the renovations, which made things slightly more difficult for the crew, and surely added to time it took to complete the job, through no fault of SMR. With young children safety is always a huge concern of mine. The entire crew was amazing to work with and always considerate of our family and our personal space. The subcontractors SMR works with, were equally considerate. We would not hesitate to contact Mr. Blake for future work, and have not hesitated to already recommend him to local friends looking for a contractor.

Travis Blake and his team did an amazing job finishing our basement. He and his team were prompt, respectful, and always available when we had questions. We are hiring him back to create a master bathroom and have no doubt that it too will look amazing when its completed. I highly recommend Southern Maine Remodeling, we have been very happy with their results.

Southern Maine Remodeling did a fantastic job remodeling our house this fall - from tearing down walls, installing kitchen counters and a new bathroom shower, replacing doors, laying floors to finish work of painting and crown moulding. Travis Blake and his team provide the highest quality of service, are competively priced, and completely trustworthy.
