Our living room needed some work that fits our small budget and is done quickly. Melinda's experience and quote were perfect for the job. She creatively installed cork flooring and underlayment, a dividing wall, and a custom, hardwood threshold that runs the length of the room. Her resourcefulness and knowledge helped bring our vision to life and the finished work looks fantastic! Moreover, it was completed on time and within budget. We are thrilled with the updated living room and highly recommend Melinda and her excellent work.

Melinda is an absolute genius who made my dream of re-tiling my kitchen backsplash a reality after 10 years of waiting. She used hand-made outlet store tiles that consisted of three different sizes and at least six colors, but she beautifully managed to make them fit together like a well-crafted puzzle in a choose-your-own-adventure story. Melinda's honesty, methodical approach, and diligence are unparalleled. Despite being out of town during the project, I placed my trust in her, and she continuously kept me updated with photos and check-ins to ensure my happiness. Having hired contractors in the past, I know how expensive it can be, but Melinda was worth every dollar. She did a perfect job and even cleaned up after the messy project. As someone who values design and detail, Melinda is simply the best contractor I have ever worked with. She is not only a contractor but also a designer, and a lovely human being to top it all off. Though we live in different states now, I would hire her for every future project if possible. Even though my kitchen is still in the process of a budget remodel, I am proud to show off Melinda's beautiful tile work and attach a few photos for your appreciation.

With her expertise and proactivity, Melinda can effectively assess a prospective project and determine the optimal design alternatives that blend aesthetics and functionality. Additionally, she possesses a strong sense of dependability in accurately gauging the duration of the project. Melinda's exceptional work for us was both impressive and punctual. I genuinely endorse Melinda for any indoor or outdoor ventures, including landscaping.
