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.
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. We'll definitely be going back when we want to get our bathroom done!
Finding the right fit for a contractor/client relationship is one of the most important factors for a successful renovation project. Your home is likely one of the largest investments you have ever made, on a financial level, as well as an emotional level, so you want to make sure it is in the hands of someone who would treat it as their own, and that is what we found with Innovative Home Renovations.
One of the first things Bennett showed us in our initial meetings was a graphic that depicts the emotional rollercoaster of any renovation project. We definitely experienced the full-spectrum of ‘renovation consternation’ as anyone would, especially as working parents of three small children, doing a mult-faceted remodel, right smack in the middle of a global pandemic. Fortunately, when on the rollercoaster, the high-highs completely overshadowed any of the lows, and any time we hit what could be classified as a low point, Bennett and his team were always a text or phone call or in-person meeting away to talk us through it.
His communication style is thorough and transparent and he also has a sense of humor which really is helpful when dealing with anything stressful.
The thing we appreciated most about Bennett is his genuine approach to accountability. He is someone who is open to learning and won’t stop until even the smallest detail of the project is done right. He has impeccable standards so you can be confident that what you will be left with is a completed job that everyone is happy with. No corners cut, no stone left unturned. His attention to detail is unmatched to the point that right before demo, he found a rogue lego character behind the refrigerator when they pulled it out and it saved it for us in case it might have been important. It may seem like a small act, but those small acts are what make all the difference.
He also seemed to have a great relationship with all of his subs and was conscious of working within the parameters of Covid safety protocols, which was really important to us.
When we met with Bennett, it immediately felt like he was family and over the course of the months we spent together, that proved to be true. He is now very much a part of our lives, and our home, and we are extremely grateful for that. We cannot recommend Innovative Home Renovations enough.
