Project Team Performance

Project Team Performance - We've really enjoyed working with Katie. She responds very quickly to all questions, and works late to do so. (I hope the late hours won't continue.) She has great design ideas, interprets our wishes and we've had fun collaborating. Lastly, we've had many "quirks" to remove and/or address due to the previous home owner's poor work. She's had to capture and keep track of many details to address the "quirks" and issues. Thank you, Katie!

Project Team Communication

Project Team Communication - We hear from Gene (and Katie) regularly and they respond promptly to our questions. Gene also knocks on our door, and/or we stop out when he's on site, to provide updates, address questions, offer up options (refer to the "quirks" mentioned in #12 above). Thank you to Gene as well!

Schedule Accuracy

Schedule Accuracy - There is a little flex due to coordination with trades and the demand across the industry, but we expected that and Gene was very clear about it when we started. There haven't been any surprises - simply the normal give and take.

Additional Comments

Additional Comments - So far a very good experience. Thank you FBC!

Additional Comments

Additional Comments - Overall, we were very pleased with the way the expectations were set and the calendar was established. Project started on time, and the jobsite was kept clean (it didn't feel like a construction zone). There were short delays from the various trades that are out of FBC control.

Areas for Improvement

Areas for Improvement - We have done our basement with them, and now we are doing the master bath. That explains enough that we love the job that was done. There were a couple of misunderstanding about something. Otherwise, I couldn't ask for more. Gene works with us really well!

Areas of Satisfaction

Areas of Satisfaction - We are happy that every time there are things that need to get done, it is really clean. The stuff they have to remove from our master bathroom is not scattered everywhere. They do their best to clean it up. The people are polite and friendly. That is important too. They listen to our concerns.

Additional Comments

Additional Comments - Hopefully it will be done with how much we loved our basement. We will see how will it end, but so far we are happy with what is going on!

Areas of Satisfaction

Areas of Satisfaction - They are doing well with communication.

Additional Comments

Additional Comments - Overall, it has been really good experience, and I have been impressed. They do what they say.

I have already recommended to several that I believe have resulted in potential meetings. The process was far from perfect and there were a lot of frustrations, but I guess this is to be expected in the industry and I know that labor shortages are an issue currently.

Areas of Satisfaction

Areas of Satisfaction - Whole process has been smooth and as laid out changes well communicated

We had a few hiccups in our process that were not the fault of FBC (like discovering near the end of the project that we needed to replace the concrete slab). When dealing with those obstacles and when dealing with normal work flow, the team at FBC consistently stood out to us as exceptional. Carly/Kyle/Ariel always felt like they were true partners with us. The transparency, honesty, integrity and focus on customer service really make your company stand out from the rest.

Areas for Improvement

Areas for Improvement - There is really not anything that FBC Remodel can do better. They are excellent. The project manager and the designer are really really great communicators. This makes the change process easy.

Referral

Great overall experience once again. With the exception of a few items I think could have been avoided with better setting of expectations, it was a great remodel. Given the scope of the job (complete update of the top two floors of our house) I would say it went rather smooth. Both Brittany and McKinley did a great job understanding our vision and Dominic went above and beyond bringing the vision to life. He make sure the trades were doing the right thing and was very helpful with questions and me bugging him all the time. In fact. everyone was very responsive when I was bugging them. 100% would recommend FBC and have done so already on a couple of occasions.

Areas of Satisfaction

Areas of Satisfaction - FBC Remodel is great with communication. The back and forth regards to the design was fantastic. FBC Remodel is very responsive. Dominic is a champion when it comes to keeping things straight at the house. Mckinley and Brittany have been fantastic as well making selections easy for us.

Additional Comments

Additional Comments - I used FBC Remodel 3 years ago and was happy with their work and with their past performance. I will be happy to comment on their future performance once my current project is complete and we're back in our house.

Areas of Satisfaction

Areas of Satisfaction - Design, communication, professionalism, flexibility and consideration.

Additional Comments

Additional Comments - So far, happy with our decision to go with FBC.

There has not been strong leadership over the project and because of this many mistakes have been made. The contractors that are employed by FBC should not be making major decisions-this should be done by the project manager who should be in consultation with the homeowners. It all feels very disorganized and unprofessional. We are 3 months behind schedule and much of this is because of the time it takes to correct mistakes.

Schedule Accuracy

Schedule Accuracy - While there have been subtle adjustments its within what we'd expect for such projects and given the global challenges that all are dealing with.
