Tommy C.
I highly recommend Texas Prime Contractor (TPC). I had the pleasure of working with Adel to replace our entire first story, including the floors, kitchen, master bath, half bath, and painting the walls. They finished the entire job within one day of the deadline. The workmanship was excellent, communication was prompt, and the workers were very friendly and honest. We are now back in our home, and everything is working. I even continue to communicate with Adel to work on smaller projects throughout the house, because they did good, honest work, on time. There were no hidden fees, and they were true to their estimates.
Like most customers choosing contractors, I initially feared that a contractor could potentially take our money, and then flee; I never felt this with Adel and TPC. At the first meeting, he came on time with a portfolio at hand. After describing our situation and our needs, he wrote an estimate for the job. He assured me that the cost of the job would be within the range of the estimate, and it was. Payment was based on multiple phases of the job. You pay an initial amount, and then after TPC finishes each phase, you provide the payment for that completed phase. I recall Adel noting that this method is safe for both parties (the contractor and the client), and I agree that it is. No other contractor I met was as thorough and honest.
After the demolition phases, we met with the designer. Her name was Mariana, and she was wonderful. She will work with you and Adel to redesign your home. For us, this included the floor plan, layout, cabinet designs (kitchen and bath), paint colors, materials, etc. After a few consults, Mariana provided full PDFs of the designs, so everyone, including TPC and Adel, are on the same page about how your house will look.
The rebuild phases were great as well. The wooden floors, tile, and backsplash was all laid correctly. The cabinets were properly built and installed correctly. The countertops were properly installed on top of the cabinets. The shower stall looks great with high quality glass. All the finishes and fits are great. TPC used contractor grades for all the materials. One concern I had was whether a contractor would buy cheap materials to lower their own overhead and maximize profits. TPC used very good materials. In fact, there were multiple occasions when Adel went out of his way to obtain higher quality materials for our flooring, countertops, and backsplash. He would text me pictures to let know which options were best. I went with all of Mariana and Adel’s recommendations, and everything turned out great.
Throughout the process, if I had any concerns, I would text Adel, and he would return a text within minutes, sometimes late into the evening. When there was a change needed, Adel took extra steps to absolutely ensure it would be to my liking. They finished the job within one day of their own self-imposed deadline, which is amazing. I continue to text Adel to work on additional smaller projects on the home. Adel, TPC, and Mariana did a great job, and our home really did turn out like the design renderings.
