Jacqueline Vazquez on Wise Builders

We had an excellent experience with Daniel from Wise Builders on our kitchen remodel. From the initial consultation through completion, their team was professional, organized, and easy to work with. Communication was clear and consistent, so we always knew what was happening and what to expect next.

The craftsmanship and attention to detail really stood out — from the cabinetry and countertops to the finishes and overall layout. The crew was respectful of our home, kept the job site clean, and stayed on schedule as much as possible. Any questions or small adjustments were handled quickly and professionally.

The final result exceeded our expectations, and our kitchen looks and functions better than we imagined. We would absolutely recommend Wise Builders to anyone considering a kitchen remodel and would gladly work with them again!

Staci Scott on Wise Builders

I don't ever write negative reviews, and it has taken me over 7 years to finally write this one, but that is how strongly I feel about my experience. We hired Wise Builders to redo our two bathrooms after meeting with them and really liking their project managers and the ideas they provided to add to what we already had in mind. The project itself was going so well that we asked them to redo our popcorn ceilings in addition. To be clear, this is not an accusation but a stating of facts: We had to leave the house overnight for this part of the project. In the hustle of that I forgot my wedding ring sitting in the shower and when we returned my wedding ring was no longer there. The workers were in the only people in our house during that time as witnessed by our exterior security cameras. I have not found it since, and yes, I am aware that I should not have forgotten it but it also should not have disappeared.

Shortly after the project was finished we noticed substantial cracking in the tile. When I brought it up I was told that was normal veining in the stone but once I was able to provide proof that the cracks were growing larger and were actually cracks, the company agreed to come and redo the shower at their cost which I really appreciated and felt relieved that they would make it right. While redoing it, they discovered it had indeed been installed wrong the first time. I wasn't entirely pleased with the quality of work on the redone shower but at that point I didn't want to make them redo anything yet again and I let it go.

My bathroom sink also started cracking almost immediately and the company told me I must have dropped something but I know we did not. The crack continues to grow and I will have to have the sink replaced.

In the years since then we continue to have issues in the shower with cracking of tiles and grout, grout falling out, and uneven tiles. At some point I will need to have it redone yet again but definitely by another company.

I am grateful that we had insurance to cover the cost of my wedding ring but the fact that it went missing during this time is still very upsetting to me.

I wanted to note my experience because I know we hired Wise Builders based on their glowing reviews and since then have heard of other people having issues who told me they wished they knew my experience before hiring them.

Steve Byrd on Wise Builders

Our bathroom was outdated, and the narrow tub no longer worked for us. We decided on a full remodel and wanted to replace the tub with a walk-in shower. From the very beginning, our project manager, Michele, guided us through every stage of the process, including planning, measurements, and tile and fixture selection. Having someone so experienced made the entire remodel feel straightforward and stress-free. Michelle was truly a pleasure to work with.

Michele and the team were able to adapt to some unexpected architectural problems we encountered with our old house. They were able to keep the project on schedule and avoided any major budget changes. The crew was professional and respectful of our home throughout the process, and all work was completed to code and passed inspection without issue.

The finished bathroom looks incredible, and we couldn’t be happier with the result. We would absolutely recommend Wise Builders to anyone considering a remodel.

Jeri L. on Wise Builders

We spent almost six years dreaming about remodeling our kitchen, and this year, we hired Wise Builders to handle it. We could not have been happier!

The remodel included (among other things): taking the kitchen down to the studs/subfloor to check for damage, the removal of walls, the building of a pantry and additional storage closet between the kitchen and entryway, the replacement of a window, installation of new cabinets, countertops, flooring, fixtures, and lighting, the replacement of a standard water heater with a tankless water heater and water softener, and the installation of tile on a fireplace (dining room). They did this all while we continued to live in our house, and it was a good experience. They were courteous and kept dust in the rest of the house to a minimum.

Michael G. (the project manager) as great to work with. We interviewed four companies, but Michael won the bid. From the beginning, I knew that I was in good hands, and he guided us through every decision and unexpected circumstance. His foremen (Carlos and Juan) and their team (including Roberto and Kevin) worked really hard to make our vision a reality. Shout out to Michelle as well, who designed the cabinet layout. We would definitely hire Wise again, and I'd recommend working with Wise (and especially Michael) to anyone.

We hired Wise Builders for a custom bathroom remodel, and the results were outstanding! Michael and his team made the entire process smooth, organized, and surprisingly stress-free for first-time renovators. He guided us clearly, offered practical suggestions, and kept everything on schedule and within budget with creative ideas. Juan and his crew delivered excellent craftsmanship with impressive attention to detail, and they kept the workspace clean every day and respected our house, passed all inspections smoothly and the communication was consistent, quick, and always efficient and transparent. The final walkthrough was straightforward, and everything was completed to a high standard only in 3 weeks. We’re thrilled with the outcome and highly recommend to use Michael, Juan and the entire Wise Builders team to anyone looking for reliable, skilled, and honest contractors.
