I highly recommend Top Notch Remodeling for any home remodeling needs. I initially worked with them on a basement finishing project and decided to work with them again when I decided to remodel my kitchen. Their exceptional service, attention to detail, and commitment to customer satisfaction make them stand out.They employ a team of skilled professionals who are not only experts in their craft but also genuinely care about the projects they undertake. From initial consultation to project completion, they maintain open communication with clients, ensuring that every aspect of the remodel aligns with the client's vision and expectations. Clients can trust Top Notch to handle every aspect of the remodel process, and I wholeheartedly endorse them for anyone seeking top-notch service and remarkable results for their home renovation needs

I’m just fully and utterly disappointed. This review is coming months after my project was “finished” because I don’t believe in reacting in anger. But I can’t sit in my tub or stand in my bathroom without seeing the mess that I paid good money for.This company is called top notch and yet I received some bottom rung remodeling work. Michael was referred to me by a friend who had his company do work in her house. She assured me that he and his team were the best in the business when it comes to tile work and remodeling. But it has become clear to me that I was sent the B team on my project. I’m sure in their world my $20,000 project wasn’t worth the time because someone was probably spending more than that, so their efforts went there.Let’s start by the false promises made. I hired Michael in September of 2022. Michael told me that they couldn’t start my project until March of 2023. I immediately said, no I can’t wait that long because another clown of a contractor already messed up and my bathroom was in ruins. To get my money, Michael promised he could move things around and start in Jan/Feb. I really wanted to work with him based on the recommendation so I agreed. The project was started on March 13th, so I ended up waiting anyway.The 2 workers in my house that did everything, tile, electric, plumbing, painting, etc were very nice but clearly are handymen and not professionals in any of those specific fields. Every single fixture in my bathroom has leaked since completion of the project - sink which ruined the vanity and they had to replace it, toilet the first time I used it, drain under the tub which leaked into my living room ceiling and ruined it, and the shower door that leaks out water every time I open it. You might be thinking, oh, that’s the door that’s a problem, but it’s not. The curb from the shower is angled out so the water pools at the door and then floods out when I open it. The leaks were seemingly fixed but Michael didn’t even address the improperly angled curb. He ignored it which means I just have to live with it I guess.The tile work is incredibly sloppy, with black grout from the floor smeared up the sides of the walls. The ceiling and wall drywall are messy and have cracks and lines in them. I’m basically waiting for the next thing to fail.My living room ceiling that was ruined from the tub leak was patched horribly. The workers also wanted to just paint the patch they made. I had to force them to paint the whole ceiling to make it look somewhat presentable. And, before they even fixed the ceiling they tried convincing me that the leak was from something else (my chimney, a tree root?, me being too rough in my tub and breaking its seal with Michael throwing in a dirty and inappropriate sex joke). Michael had the nerve to ask me to book another bathroom remodel with me in tears while his crew was tearing apart my living room.Michael is a schmoozer. He talks and smiles and pretends to care. I never was fooled by him but I let him make his over the top gestures all the while thinking, who cares, if he does the job right? But the job wasn’t done right. And to top it off, he got into a screaming match with my friend who stood up for me and called him out on his BS. Instead of profusely apologizing to me for what he put me through, I haven’t heard from Michael since.Think long and hard before spending thousands of dollars with this company. My bathroom is beautiful, thanks to my design, but it is tainted every time I see their shoddy work.Photos below: leaking water out of shower from improperly angled curb, “patched” living room ceiling, picture of pipe under tub that leaked before being sealed differently (no crack), picture of the resolution for the leaking tub (fingers crossed on that one), pictures of the leaking sink when it happened - nothing was placed in the vanity yet, aka I didn’t do it.

I took a risk in hiring Michael based off prior reviews. They were excellent, so I called for a consult. Michael was very professional and came with an extensive portfolio and references. I hired him for both the back porch deck and a bathroom remodel. Eric worked on both and did a fantastic job! He was on time daily and finished both jobs as promised! He cleaned the work area every day before leaving. The deck and bathroom look amazing and I will use Michael for future projects hands down! So thankful I found Top Notch!Services: Tile work installation

Top Notch & Michael K. were outstanding. The work was very professional, up front & on-time. Michael did a full basement for my home. He came up with some unique design elements that gave us more for less in comparison to other companies. We added a great room, laundry room, wet bar, full bath & office. His guys stuck to the time table and were right on the proposed budget. His pricing was very competitive also. Following my renovation I had a small plumbing issue & Michael was able to get guys out to help me finish that project in no time flat. I would highly recommend Michael for your project & will reach out to him first with any of my future projects.Services: Tile work installation

We just got done with finishing our basement and couldn't be happier with the entire process. We have worked with other contractors on past projects but Mike and his team are by far the best we have worked with. They were very professional, clean, stayed within the budget and came up with good suggestions when planning the layout. Quality craftsmanship, we are very happy with how everything came out. We will definitely be using Top Notch again for any of our other projects and will recommend them to anyone that asks.Thanks Mike for the great job!

Robert did great work on both our master bath and our hall bath. We love the results which are both highly functional and beautiful. The scope of our project was very large including a large multiple head shower with bench, stand alone tub, two large walk in closets and a utility closet, recirculating pump and heated floors.Michael is fair and stays very close to the work, responding quickly to any issue but also supporting his outstanding crew.Without hesitation, I recommend Top Notch Remodeling.

Top Notch, Michael Kennedy saved my parents from a total nightmare. They hired a company who did the worst work I've ever seen. Top Notch came in and had to do total tear down and finished so quickly with the end result....simply beautiful. Highly recommend to all. The photos with the dark wood is before and the one with the beautiful deck/stairs is after.

Our experience withTopNotch Remodeling was an excellent! We had a master bath completely remodeled. We had a 1970’s bathroom. Now we have a magazine dream master bath! Michael laid out a design for us and was involved in every step, and available for any questions we had. Eric did all the construction work and was so pleasant, efficient, and so skilled ! We are so happy, and will definitely call TopNotch for our next project!Services: Fan installation

We have had Top Notch now for 3 different projects and we have never been disappointed. We feel at this point Robert and Michael are part of our family! The quality of work is exceptional and they are more than reasonably priced. When you pick a contractor it's always nerve-racking! Strangers in your house that you are trusting to love and respect your home as much as you do. Hands down you immediately feel that Top Notch is treating your home as if it was their own. They do not cut corners. They do not rush thru to get to the next job. They make sure it's done right. And if anything isn't the way you want it or if something is not functioning, they are quick to fix or alter the plans. They are also very clean when they work. If you have never done a home remodel you may not realize just how important that is! Robert is like a ninja, you can't even tell that he was there except for outstanding work left behind. Seriously, if you are looking for someone reasonably priced, great work ethic and quality craftsmenship look no further, Top Notch is your team. Just look at our pictures. Just wish we had before pictures.Services: Paint indoors

Top Notch Remodelers remodeled just about my entire home. They replaced every floor (including removing a lot of old ceramic tile,) replaced all my doors, gutted and remodeled the entire kitchen, gutted and remodeled 2 bathrooms and gutted and remodeled my laundry room. They also installed new light fixtures throughout and installed new plumbing utilities in my basement.Two workmen were assigned to my project. They worked for almost 2 months. They were on time, polite, respectful and could not have been more decent. They also worked fast and did high quality work.Prior to starting my job, Michael Kennedy (the owner) gave me a list of vendors to use to buy my new items. Every vendor was knowledgeable and reliable. They helped me pull together all the elements of my remodel so that it looked professionally designed.Michael was wonderful before during and after my remodel. He was completely knowledgeable, always available and totally reliable. He gave me every bit of information I needed. He was available whenever I called—even on a Friday night! The workmen were in my home for almost 2 months which included Saturdays. Michael stopped in on most of those days. He was checking to ensure the work was going smoothly and to ensure I had no concerns or questions. A few times, a material exchange was needed or more materials needed to be ordered. Michael would go to the vendor and pick up the material and drop it back off the same day. Tearing apart my home was incredibly stressful. Michael alleviated all that stress. He had everything under control. He ensured the work was completed efficiently and was done right.I highly recommend Top Notch Remodelers for anyone considering a remodeling project.Renee’ FrischServices: Paint indoors

The owner Mike Kennedy is very unprofessional. Do not recommend using this company. He has angry outburst for no reason. Please find a different person for your remodel.

With a new baby coming we needed more space in our house. We knew that our loft would have to be turned into a bedroom. My husband called top notch and Mike was very helpful. He returned my husbands call right away and set up time with us to come give us a quote. Mike is very professional and had a lot of knowledge and very personable. The whole process was great he fit us in right away and a few days later work was started. Jack and Andy were great and made our loft a beautiful bedroom for our upcoming baby. They were also very professional and personable. I am in love with the bedroom and would recommend this company to anyone. Thank you so much top notch.Kelley and NateService: Remodeling
