It was thorough, it was a joyful process from start to finish. It was over communicated.

Professional and personal experience

We had an overall positive experience while the bid was on the higher end of the range we received while obtaining estimates from a range of providers.

We love working with Ben Quie & Sons. They listen to home owners and create a design plan that will achieve the desired result. One thing we especially appreciated was their interior designer going with us to pick out plumbing fixtures, tile, carpet, granite countertop, and paint. Their carpenters and sub-contractors are exceptional in terms of quality work and responsiveness to questions or concerns. They do their very best to stay on schedule, and in 2021 that was sometimes challenging with supply chain issues and staffing (sometimes due to COVID protocols?). Ben Quie & Sons really respect their clients, and go out of their way to make sure everything is done right and on time.

Any home construction during Covid with all the supply chain delays and worker illness is difficult. Ben Quie and sons worked to keep us informed and realistic. The quality of the work is impressive, Ben stands behind it!

I am thrilled with my bathroom and the work done on my back porch.

Project design, quality of work, craftsmanship and project management was outstanding.

Great to work with. Quality work, responsive to questions, solved issues quickly and well.

Highly recommend Ben Quie & Sons to a friend and to family. I found the company to be professional and have a great deal of integrity. Their experience with older homes showed while working on my project. My home is over 100 years old!

The designer's ability to intuit what we wanted and to point us in the right direction was amazing and far beyond our expectations. The installation by Ben Quie and sub-contractors was as un-intrusive as it could possibly have been. The quality of work was outstanding.

Highly recommend Ben Quie and Sons! They remodeled our kitchen and now are completely a basement bathroom and finally a main level bathroom. We wouldn’t have anyone else remodel our house. They are professional, great communicators, trustworthy and all around great people.

BQS is an outstanding company staffed by wonderful people. I am a very satisfied customer.

They are worth what they cost. I value the work they have done for us quite highly.

Ben Quie and Sons is a fantastic contractor. Our kitchen is lovely and the process from step one to the kitchen being finished was exactly what was communicated to us and not painful. From our first meeting with Ben, Amy and Josh, we were beyond impressed. They worked well together and really listed to what we wanted in a kitchen. Amy provided 3 designs and her vision was exactly what we needed. We loved her input, but also loved her allowing us to make final decisions. She listened and gave us the kitchen design we had been dreaming of for a long time. Leaf the head carpenter was great. He kept us informed and was able to handle all that was asked of him. We knew if Leaf said something was going to happen, it would be done. He is top notch and we were very grateful to have him as our lead carpenter. The subcontractors were all very professional and great at their specialty. The communication tool that Ben Quie and Sons uses was so helpful. It allowed us to communicate to everyone in one website. It was beyond helpful. We only have great things to say about Ben Quie and Sons. They delivered what they promised and stuck to the schedule. We highly recommend them for any of your house remodeling needs.

Simply fantastic. Ben loves what he does and takes great pride in his work. This showed throughout the project and we couldn't be happier.

Extremely competent and communicative. They worked with my budget and recommended ways to reduce costs without compromising the quality of the work. I am extremely satisfied with my new space.

Ben Quie & Sons does top notch work. They are highly skilled at blending the remodel within old homes, like mine.

Working with BQS was an excellent experience. The final products (2 re-modeled bathrooms) were outstanding and better than I had hoped for. I would certainly recommend BQS to anyone looking to remodel any part of their home. :-)
