Testimonials

Heartwood Residential is truly a professional construction company. As a landscape architect, I’ve seen lots of contractors’ work, some great, others not so. After a competitive bid process, we hired Heartwood to remodel our 1980s-era kitchen. The work involved removing two structural walls and replacing a 30’ ridge beam. From demo through completion, Nick and his team were very easy to work with, well organized and communicative throughout. Five stars for service AND five stars for quality!Read More

Heartwood did a full interior remodel of my 3-bedroom 2-bath 1255-square foot home. The job included a completely new kitchen, removal of a wall, a to-the-studs remodel of both baths, new flooring, drywall resurfacing, raising a dropped hallway floor, and new doors, door trim, and hardware throughout. The beginning of the job happened during a difficult time, namely in February 2020. Because of the lockdown, communication especially early in the job was somewhat spotty, and not all design decisions were discussed. However, the designer, Michelle, might as well have read my mind, as she made choices that very much reflected my own taste. In the end, I could not be more pleased with the workmanship and the overall look of the final result. Even though the job ended up taking much longer than anticipated, it was worth the wait. I feel lucky every time I come home.Read More

We hired Heartwood Residential to remodel an existing two-story home. From the beginning to end, Heartwood Residential was a pleasure to work with. Our initial meeting was thoughtful and confidence inducing, their proposal was by far the most complete we received, and Nick was very responsive as we finalized the plan and contract. Once construction started, their crew worked diligently and kept a very clean construction zone. In the end, the quality of construction is incredible, and we are very happy with all of their work. Scope of work included replacing a 1st story load-bearing shear-wall with a moment frame, adding a large covered porch, new windows throughout, complete kitchen remodel (cabinets, granite, bead board ceiling, appliances etc.), matching existing hardwood floors with new (incl refinishing), base boards / door casings and adding a large structural steel garden window amongst other elements. Several of these improvements were quite complicated and required adding shear-wall, underpinning the foundation etc. Heartwood Residential took the worry out of what can typically be a very stressful process. I would absolutely recommend Heartwood Residential for any project you may be considering. Wouldn’t hire anyone else!Read More

Heartwood Residential remodeled our kitchen in 2016 and added a second story to our home in 2020. Both projects stayed on budget and the craftsmanship on both was excellent. Our expectations were exceeded when we saw the final product. It is also worth mentioning when we added our second story, we also had new windows and insulation installed throughout. On hot days we can get away without turning on our A/C as our house does an amazing job of staying cool on its own. We recommend Heartwood for any home remodeling needs.Read More

A few weeks ago, my husband and I had the true pleasure of meeting Nick, founder and president of Heartwood Residential. We were interested in finally remodeling our older home in these areas: small kitchen, both bathrooms, flooring throughout, taking down a half wall, remove popcorn ceiling, painting, etc. As a general contractor, Nick definitely went above our expectations at our first meeting in the following ways: * great people skills, meaning that he was personable, down to earth, calm and patient * great attitude as in being flexible about meeting our needs the very best that he could offer * great communication skills, clear and thoughtful; very comfortable to talk to him * professional in manner and in his approach to this work * knowledgeable and obvious expertise * most creative problem solver (gave us solutions that no one else offered) + eye for design and function * organized At the end, because our budget was tight, we were not able to hire Nick for our remodel job even though we were both impressed with him as a person as well as a professional. Bottom line, it is our pleasure to highly recommend Nick and his company, Heartwood Residential, for your serious consideration to do your home remodel!
