I highly recommend IHR. Bennett did a great job building and designing a balcony/porch for our 1926 home. Communication was great - we always knew what to expect and how how much it would cost. Exterior work included: design and building of the balcony including custom wrought iron railings and tile, replacing windows and window framing, stucco repair, gutters and painting a three story house, plus all the permit work it entailed. Interior work included kitchen cabinets and floor, electrical and painting.
Bennett worked with us to do a big kitchen remodel which involved moving the kitchen from one area of the house to another. We also worked with an interior designer (Kimberlee Marie Designs). Together they were an absolutely winning team that helped us create the kind of kitchen dreams are made of. If you want a 100% reliable contractor, a contractor who does what he says, turns up when he says he will and calls you back promptly when he misses your call Bennett is your guy! We really loved Bennetts fixed price bid. It was such a comfort to know we knew the cost going into the remodel and wouldnt be stung with any surprises before it all kicked off. Bennett was incredibly diligent in his getting everything right and working with us to make it all beautiful. Bennett is a real perfectionist and insists his sub contractors work to his same high standards. We were never left with sub-par work or any sort of job not finished, he completely on top of it. The cherry on top of it all is Bennett is just a really lovely guy and was a pleasure to have in our home whilst doing all of this work. I would highly recommend Bennett to anyone thinking of doing any sort of remodel in their home be it big or small, he is just wonderful and we cant thank him enough. Hes amazing.
We used Bennett Bottorff of Innovative Home Renovations to remodel a small bathroom in our condo in downtown Seattle. We wanted to replace the tub with a shower, add a wall-hung cabinet, new lighting, and additional storage – a pretty tall order for a bathroom that was less than forty square feet. The condo is in a high-rise, and he was required to navigate HOA requirements and work with the facilities manager as well as all the neighbors on several floors. From the beginning, Bennett seemed sincerely enthusiastic about our project. At our very first meeting, we felt we were in good hands. We appreciated his organization and integrity. Everything happened exactly the way he said it would; there were no surprises, no cost overruns, and no delays once the project got started. He had good ideas, but he also listened carefully to ours. We were pleased with all aspects of the project. His subcontractor team all did really outstanding work. Home Renovations has our highest recommendation and sincere appreciation for an outstanding job well done.
I am very pleased with the bathroom remodel recently completed by IHR. It looks beautiful and meets my needs perfectly. IHR offered great suggestions for fixtures and materials during the design process, and the final product exceeded my expectations. When changes to the schedule were necessary, they were promptly communicated, and a reasonable alternative was suggested. The workers were skilled, thorough, polite, hard-working and prompt. I highly recommend IHR.
We love our kitchen!! We worked with Bennett to open up our kitchen to the living room and dining room through a load bearing wall. With an old 1940s house, there were a lot of variables that could go wrong, but Bennett did a great job of communicating those things, and testing for moisture, lead, etc before even starting the job or opening up the walls.Bennett has an eye for our sense of style - modern / vintage / farmhouse look. We definitely appreciated his outside of the box thinking to our space problems - he could think of creative solutions we did not.While we were in the ideation / planning phase before any construction began, we realized that the scope of the project was going to make us exceed our personal budget for the project, so Bennett was very flexible and pivoted to letting us install the cabinets (via ikea) ourselves to save some cash. He still stayed with the project, checking in and offering advice, all the way through final inspection.He was always available via phone / text / email and meetings. He’s a very sweet guy that even gave our little toddler some books that his sons enjoyed when they were that age.
Working with Bennett and his team was a pleasure. They were responsive, professional, and did fantastic quality work. I would use them again for sure!
Bennett is extremely creative and brings an abundance of skill and thoughtfulness to each project. He has good design sense and is exceptional at problem solving. In addition he is resourceful, thorough, organized and detail-oriented. Throughout the project, he clearly communicated the next steps so I always knew what to expect. He clearly enjoys what he does and takes pride in his work. And he does a careful job of making sure the work is tidy and clean at the end of each day and at the completion of the project. A top recommendation is well-deserved.
We hired Bennett to perform a full kitchen remodel for our home - every step of the process was handled with professionalism and care. We worked through a design that worked for us, maximized the space available to us (and even found the best design to match the space, at the lowest cost of all the options available to us), and ended up with a transformative space for our entire home.We had a lot of questions throughout the entire process - Bennett was always gracious with his time and more than willing to explain every option available to us (even going so far as to find additional solutions for us on multiple occasions). Bennett was thorough and on top of everything. We always felt we had an advocate with every contractor in our home - with him even going so far as to clean our space because some dust had made its way out.We got the project done with only a few small delays (entirely due to a couple cabinets being delivered in the incorrect configuration - which Bennett was able to get fixed promptly and at no cost to us) and on the budget we agreed to.I would give Innovated Home Renovations and Bennett my full throated endorsement and recommendation for anyone who wants a top notch remodel for their home. Well definitely be going back when we want to get our bathroom done!
I had wanted to turn two rooms into an apartment and after meeting with a couple of contractors, was convinced that there was only one way to configure it.Bennett came up with a super innovative idea that was not only less expensive, but much more practical and beautiful. Bennett completed the job on budget and within the time estimated and allowed me to have input all along the way, which I loved. He was fun and kind and truely concerned with doing great, high quality work.
Bennett and his team are amazing. On-time, on-budget and excellent craftsmanship. His design ideas were great and he worked with me at every step of the process but I trusted his advice and it turned out beautiful.
