Wake Remodeling

? Highly recommend Wake Remodeling — reliable, professional, and truly top-notch craftsmanship.

I have known the owner of Wake Remodeling, Luke Dobbins, for 31 years. We grew up in the same neighborhood, and his father gave me my first electrical job. Over the past 14 years, I’ve had the privilege of watching Luke build Wake Remodeling from the ground up, and the growth and success of his business have been remarkable.

Luke consistently takes on complex and impressive projects, and his team reflects the same level of professionalism. The staff is courteous, detail-oriented, and dedicated to understanding the customer’s vision before bringing it to life. Their workmanship, communication, and execution are truly top tier.

I am proud to give Wake Remodeling a 5-star review without hesitation. Luke continues to exceed expectations, and the quality of his work speaks for itself. His father would be proud of the business he has built and the reputation he has earned.

Mr. Luke and his amazing team at Wake Remodeling have done amazing work for my family at our house.

They have always been up front with cost, planning, and design. Not once have they gone over our budget. The design team has always listened to our needs and have applied them to our new look home. Our Kitchen is more open, with beautiful decor. Our new bathroom and laundry has more space and storage, while maintaining a beautiful, sharp look.

We will never use anyone else. Luke and his team are always available for conversation and will listen to our concerns. They also will respond after the project has been completed.

Its so nice to know that even after the job is completed, that we matter to them after we have paid for services rendored

Simply the best home remodeling company in the triangle!! If you are considering a large renovation to your house, you need to work with Wake Remodeling. We had a large project to renovate our entire first floor, including a laundry room addition, converting the existing laundry room to a mudroom, and moving/converting our centrally located early 00’s kitchen to a high end kitchen in the back of the house with a large island, separate butler pantry and more natural light. The project included refinishing all of the hardwood floors and other stained wood in the house including staircases and railings, and replacing the old white wood spindles with iron. Luke, Mia, and team helped tremendously with the design and recommending items that would make the space even more functional. They helped the entire way, through design renderings and help making selections. It was an extensive project that we expected to take 4 months starting from demolition without a functional kitchen and laundry, so it was important to keep the project on time. The Wake team worked like a Swiss clock. Our Project Manager, Carter, was outstanding. He was on site nearly every day, and was meticulously scheduling/rearranging activities so that we could get a functional laundry room as soon as possible, and have the floors done before school started. Carter even stayed on site one afternoon and assisted with a very challenging install with our range/oven that would have easily been delayed had he not been there. The quality of the work was top notch across the board. Overall a very smoothly run project, given how complex it was, and delivered on time and on budget! We could not be happier with the results! It's the kitchen of our dreams and otherwise like living in a new house!!

Our attic had become a catch-all for old furniture, holiday decorations and kids’ toys, but we always thought it had potential to be more. Lucky for us, Wake Remodeling saw that potential as well! Luke and his design team didn’t just come up with a plan to put up sheetrock. They designed a space that was functional, well thought out, added value, and captured the style and “feel” of our home. With their plan, 2/3 of our attic would be transformed into a living area complete with fireplace and kitchenette, a small office and a bathroom with a large shower and linen closet. The remining 1/3 of the attic would remain valuable storage space. But the crown jewel of the attic would be a beautiful, wood beamed ceiling in the living space! Wow! That’s more potential than we ever imagined! The task of endless decisions on paint colors, fixtures, and materials seemed daunting, but Wake’s designers were happy enough to consider our preferences, make choices, and present us with options. Communication was never an issue when working with the team from Wake Remodeling. We were given access to an online calendar that scheduled out everything from the phases of our construction to the sub-contractors to the invoicing. Additionally, our team set up a group text and a physical white board on site for messaging. Our project manager, Jessie, sent us summaries at the end of each week to re-cap the work that had been done, what was up next and any additional information we needed to know. Nancy in the office made regular phone calls to check in and accept feedback. When faced with hiccups in the project, our team was very transparent with us and always found a solution to the challenge. If we ever had a concern, it became Wake’s concern. They never discounted our opinions, wants, or needs. At one point I said, “I don’t mean to be picky” and I was told “Be picky!”. We always felt that Wake Remodeling wanted us to be totally happy and satisfied with their work. An important thing to note is that Wake wasn’t only focused on construction. They were very much aware of the unavoidable disruption a project of this nature can cause a family. If subcontractors wanted to work longer hours or weekends, Jessie would always ask us first. If the crew kicked up dust on the lower floors of the house, they were quick to schedule a cleaning crew. They truly tried their best to be as invisible and unobtrusive as possible. When our attic renovation was complete, we excitedly posted pictures on social media to rave reviews. We just can’t help wanting to show off our new space! Hiring Wake Remodeling was, without a doubt, the best decision we made. If and when we are faced with other home improvement projects, you can bet that the first call we make will be to Wake Remodeling.

The Wake Remodeling team was such a pleasure to work with during my bathroom remodel! I appreciated their detailed process of design selection, contract creation, change tickets, and the utilization of their builder portal. I loved being able to see the schedule online each day.
They were super flexible with any changes I requested, came up with creative solutions, and communicated frequently the whole time. Every team member I met was so kind and wanted the best result for me. I would definitely recommend!
