My experience with Ilan and South Land Remodeling has been excellent. Our family had a very unique circumstance in that we needed the bulk of the job finished in exactly 4 weeks in order for my family to move into the house and we were due to have our second baby in 6 weeks.
I met with 5 contractors on a Friday and a couple of them told me it would be impossible for us to move in 4 weeks. I immediately felt that Ilan understood the job, was honest about what was feasible and how much things might cost (and the current delays with getting products due to covid) and was importantly someone I could easily work with in terms of personality. He was the only one who followed up with me that same evening with estimated pricing and even a quote for patio doors we wanted. Given the urgency of our challenging job it was surprising not to get the same follow up from the other contractors (some didn't respond to me for several days). All of these factors led us to choose SLR and we signed contracts and he had workers in the house the following Monday morning.
For the most part, we knew what we wanted done and the type of materials we wanted to use and SLR executed our vision perfectly and Ilan was still there with me at every appointment to choose wood floors, tile, marble etc. and to help get discounts and guide me when I wasn't sure if things could logistically work. Ilan was wonderful to work with and was also so easy to communicate with - I could text him or call him at any time and he kept me in the loop at every stage.
At one point there were 12 different "teams" in the house working overtime to get the job done in time for us to move in. There have been a few delays but nothing that held us back from moving in comfortably on the date I confirmed and the delays were due to the product vendors, not Ilan's team. They honestly did the job faster than I even expected.
We are so happy with how everything turned out and love our house so much. I made last minute changes and additions and nothing came as a surprise price wise. I would absolutely hire them again and will when we have more time to completely redo our bathroom! It's such a personal decision and experience, but for me working with Ilan and SLR was the best decision we made. I honestly don't think anyone else could've done the job in the time frame we had and Ilan really worked to ensure all of his teams knew the urgency of the job while also ensuring high quality work.
