“We used Jay Funkhauser to completely remodel two bathroooms and a kitchen and were so satisfied with his work that we hired him to install a finished attic and full bath the following year (2013). The things we like about him are (1) he comes up with creative, yet practical solutions to difficult design challenges (2) he is a good listener (3) he likes to do things the right way rather than cut corners (3) he communicates daily during the course of demolition and construction (4) for the most part, he hires very well qualified tradesman who are polite and respectful and (5) his pricing is reasonable, but not the lowest (see #3). For both the kitchen and the attic, he identified weaknesses in structural support members and took the time to reinforce floor joists and vertical support members. At the beginning of the first job, he asked us about the potential scope of all of the home renovation projects we had in mind. After each demolition phase, he installed extra piping and wiring in anticipation of future projects, which saved us a lot of money in the long run. His finished rooms are both beautiful and functional. His experience with granite helped us choose a tasteful blend of different stones which complement the surroundings. He was very helpful with picking out lighting fixtures and decorative hardware, but he always let us have the final decision. He has a good eye for color and style; he wasn't satisfied with the paint color we originally chose for a bathroom and, on his own, returned to the paint store twice to modify the color before he got what he wanted. As soon as we saw the final color, we know it was perfect. This is one of many such stories that illustrate his attention to detail and the pride he takes in a job well done.”

“Becker Home Improvement is my go to remodeler. Most recently, I remodeled most of the first floor of my home, which was an older home that had not been updated in many, many years. This was a big project, revamping the entire kitchen, removing walls, etc. It turned out just the way I wanted it - beautiful! Some specifics: First, I have been very happy with the quality of their work. Absolutely professional . Second, great communication! This is so important, and Randy does it right. He is responsive and great at working through any issues that might come up (as in an older home that might be a little crooked when you take it down to the studs!). Third, his pricing is reasonable and he has always been on budget -- and on time -- for me. Finally, his crew are all great people . Randy has done an excellent job putting together a team where each person is really good at their craft and seems to enjoy what they do. Fully recommend!”

“In late 2011 my wife and I decided to do a major remodeling of our en-suite master bathroom of a 30+ year old house that we have been living in for the past 13+ years. Based on our awareness of Frey’s strong reputation for their quality of remodeling work and referrals, we made the decision out of many options to go with Frey. My wife worked closely with the Frey Designer over a period of a few weeks to develop the design, selection of all of the equipment choices of custom cabinets, sinks, fixtures, toilets, reconstruction of the shower area, lighting and color schemes – we were also helped by the Frey Designer for appointments to the various suppliers to make our final decisions. We were surprised how efficiently the installation and construction process took when there were so many sequencing steps needed. The crew was always polite and very careful about working inside our house. And the Designer/Project Manager was always available to answer questions that came up during the process. And everything was completed on budget! In September 2012 when we noted our 30+ year gutters were beginning to leak, my wife and I made a decision to replace our gutters quickly, including leaf protection, so we would not have to clean out our gutters in the Fall, this year or future years. As mentioned above, we previously had Frey remodel our master en-suite bathroom and this work made a huge difference and exceeded our expectations such that we knew Frey would be our clear choice for either inside or outside remodeling. It is quite amazing the difference a beautiful bathroom area makes as to how you feel when you realize how many hours of your life you spend in your bedroom/bathroom area. Until the Frey salesman explained it to us, we didn’t realize how many options we had to get the right mix of choice for gutters to meet our needs. We chose the Absolute Gutter because it carries more water and it is seamless so leaks don’t develop like traditional gutters. And the patented Big Mouth downspout connection for better water flow away from the gutter made a lot of sense. And when we included the Leakproof gutter protection we now don’t have to worry about cleaning out leaves and debris from the gutters. The Frey installation team did a great job doing the work, was very friendly and took extra care to look after our garden plants and bushes around the edge of the house. However, when the gutters were installed late in September we got a big surprise when the job had been completed. The new gutters added a great architectural impact relative to the standard gutters we previously had. We now recognized comparatively that the old gutters had visually interfered with the line between the roof and the wall. The lines and texture of the Absolute Gutters totally merged into the lines of the roofing and the wood walls. Not only do we now have better functioning gutters, an aesthetically more satisfying look, no leaves to clean out each Fall, I know we have added value to our house. And seven months since the gutters were installed and after torrential and for what seemed like continuous rains in this past Spring, we could not be happier about how the heavy water flows immediately clear our house area. These experiences with Frey Remodeling made them the natural choice to examine the attic area in March 2013 when we discovered that too much heat was escaping into our attic area. Scott Frey came out and went throughout the attic and discovered our 30+ year insulation was no longer effective and that heat was also escaping through ceiling light fixtures. And the most critical discovery was that the 30+ year ceiling light fixtures did not meet today’s code and in fact were a potential fire hazard. The Frey team completed the insulation and replacement of 40 ceiling light fixtures during the next week, a very quick turnaround for what had become a hazard concern to us. And we have already noticed our house is warmer and will also save energy during the summer months. It is without hesitation that I can recommend Frey for any remodeling job to change the way you will feel about your house and potentially increase its value. And they have been on budget every time for major remodeling work at our home. And each time it has been with the full support of their design and production teams who always had our interests in mind as they did their work. I. M. Madison, Wisconsin May, 2013”

“Quality product , detailed in every aspect, 1st class owner is a people person. I recommend to my friends.”

“Larry and his crew brought great professional knowledge and experience to the estimating, planning and completion of our total kitchen remodel. They were enjoyable to work with, reliable and willing to go above and beyond to assure we were pleased with their job. They fine tuned things such as an under cabinet light fixture cover to make it look very finely finished and also redid a corner cabinet to allow much more storage - just a couple examples of their willingness to "make things right for us."”

“My experience with Simon Builders has been nothing but top notch! I like the fact that they quote me and unless I decide to make changes to the plans my cost doesn't change midway through a project. I don't like to have unexpected surprises. They make the highest quality most energy efficient homes that are thoughtfully planned and executed in my market. I have nothing but the highest praise for this company!”

“We've had Waunakee Remodeling work on our house several times, and the experience has been fantastic. They replaced all the windows in our house, and what a difference! Not only was the product fantastic (cut our energy bills, absolutely no traffic noise and beautiful windows) but the crew is efficient, polite and very skilled. The firm is now replacing the siding on our home, and it is a pleasure to work with them. The price is right, the consultation was informative and scheduled very conveniently. I know the work will be completed promptly with the highest skill. We wouldn't hire any other company to work on our house--they're that good!”

“Their slogan is "Listen, design, build" and they did a great job of that. We did a complete kitchen remodel, gutted down to the studs. All their subs were on time and knew what was expected. The only problems we had were the hidden ones that couldn't be predicted and they dealt with those very professionally and at a very reasonable cost, absorbing a significant portion of that cost. Excellent communication and follow up. Responded to our questions in a curtious manner. Started on time and finished on time with no outstanding issues. NO PUNCHLIST NEEDED!”

He demonstrates continuous development and support of the remodeling industry through ongoing education, certifications and industry involvement. I personally value his expertise, business sense and commitment to the association. James is highly respected, as both a person and professional, by colleagues, employees, suppliers and customers alike. I recommend James and his company for your residential remodeling projects. You will find him competent, fair, ethical and thorough.”

“Beckman Builders, LLC with Karl Beckman as the owner recently competed a couple projects for me and delivered an exceptional job in quality workmanship, efficiency and cleanliness during and after the completion of the projects. Beckman Builders provided guidance and selection for replacing 2 bathroom exhaust fans which needed a retrofit and they perform exceptioanlly well. A garage service door replacement was also needed and Karl advised and recommended a solution that is functioning very well and will provide a very long and maintenance free service life. The details of the finishing touches when it comes to appearance, function and cleanliness were well above my expectations. Thank you Karl and crew for your craftsmanship and attention to detail.”
