Testimonials

“Taylor and I just wanted to reach out and let you all know that we are LOOOOVING the kitchen. You all did such a tremendous job and we are so thrilled with how it all turned out. I know there is still a list of little things and odds and ends that need to be done, but thank you so much for all the hard work and long hours that you each put in to get the job done. It doesn’t go unnoticed, or unappreciated. Thank you, thank you.”

“We hired Solid Renovation for our older home’s main floor remodel and could not be happier with the high quality of their work and exemplary customer service. This company is a gem. Jer and Dave and designer Elise Post joined our architect during the planning phase and all worked well together. Solid’s remodel design ideas added significantly to the beauty of our remodel, honoring the character of our home while adding upgrades and tasteful modern features.

Solid’s integrity and abilities have earned our highest praise. Dave and Jer are honest, personable, experienced, knowledgeable, skilled, well-organized, detail-oriented, reliable, hard-working, and excellent communicators. They are well-connected to the industry with skilled subcontractors and excellent craftsmen. Several subcontractors mentioned how much they respect Jer, our project manager, and enjoy working with him. I really appreciated how Jer provided anticipatory guidance to me, I always knew what to expect and when (as much as that was predictable!). We always knew we were in good hands with Jer and the SR team.

We hired SR designer Elise and she was worth her weight in gold. Her vision and design talent added tremendously to the aesthetics of our beautiful new home. She was tenacious in finding just the right features and items for our project, always cognizant of our budget. I could not have managed without her.

The process and outcome of our remodel with Solid Renovation has exceeded our expectations. We love our new home and are forever grateful to Solid Renovation. We unequivocally recommend them to others.”

“I feel the same way as Kara. I arrived home Friday night and was blown away by how incredible everything looked! The pictures really don't do it justice. In person allowed me to see the quality, care, attention to detail, craftsmanship, and beautiful design/flow. I love the look and feel of everything.

Solid Renovation and J Studios have been by far the most organized and professional group we've had work on our home - and that's saying something since we've probably had over 50 different home service providers do something on our property over the last three years.

Thank you so much for all your hard work. Thanks for staying within our budget and working hard to hit the deadline. We'd love to work with you again on the exterior remodel.”

“We added a room to our home for a master bathroom and it turned out beautifully. All workmen were directed to the specific part of our home under construction which made it easy for us to remain in our home during the construction. The subcontractors were polite and conscientious, removing their shoes and cleaning up, if they needed to work in the area of our home that was not under construction. We were able to upgrade the plumbing and electrical for the entire house.

It was easy to get in touch with Dave, Jer, or Colby during the construction. They rapidly responded and resolved any questions we had. They were on site nearly every day and we had weekly meetings to review the previous progress and the future schedule. We were provided an agenda and meeting minutes for each meeting. It was great to receive photos each week of the progress.

We were pleased with the documentation for the budget. The budget included a description of each line item as well as any revisions or additions. We had a few change orders and they were well documented and completed. It was easy for us see what money was budgeted, what had been paid, and what remained to be paid. I appreciated receiving copies of the bills from the subcontractors or from the companies that had furnished supplies.

A few items were backordered. We received information about the new timeframes and were given the option of choosing a replacement item. We were happy with the communication when something had been backordered or delayed.

We also want to recognize the quality workmanship and materials that were used. We are not in the construction industry, but we know what a good job should look like. We also had friends and relatives in the construction business that remarked on the quality of the work being done.

We will be using Solid Renovation again for additional work in an adjacent bedroom.

Do we have any regrets? Yes! We should have done this sooner.”

“I rarely write reviews, but I'm delighted to share my experience in working with Dave Child on my 2020 renovation project on an older home in Holladay, Utah. I've worked with many contractors and project managers. Dave Child is exceptional and I give him the highest recommendation. Dave listens. Dave also brings experience and expertise to help in decisions as the project advances. He is careful and detailed. He is always there to oversee the work and has a remarkable relationship with all the subs. Although he does not interfere, the subs recognize that Dave expects excellence. He schedules exceptionally well to keep things moving, one item after the next. Dave also kept me informed of what was happening and when and why. I highly recommend Dave Child.”
