I was very apprehensive when selecting a contractor to do our main floor reno. I know far too many people who have had bad experiences with contractors. I spent a lot of time researching and interviewing companies. I immediately liked Mike from the moment he came to my house.
We did an entire main floor gut, which included new framing, ductwork being moved, new plumbing in the kitchen, electrical, spray foam, drywall, hardwood, a new kitchen, a gas fireplace, a new handrail for our stairs, staining the stairs to match the new flooring, lighting, a new door (through the brick wall in the kitchen) to the backyard, and brickwork outside to patch up an old window. The quote Mike provided was incredibly reasonable, and covered a much larger scope of work than any of the others. Mike was very accommodating, and agreed to let me do the demo myself, to save some money(which of course we put back into upgrades anyways!). I was very impressed with how quickly the work started and how fast each phase was completed. Mikes right hand man Aldo is a big part of the process, and was always very friendly, helpful and provided a lot of face time on the job site. Any questions, or issues that arose were addressed immediately. All of the subs that came to the house were incredibly professional, polite and a pleasure to have in my home. I have never really been comfortable with workers in my home, but these guys made it a breeze. Tony the carpenter is an absolute master! His framing and trim work is incredible. Paul the hvac sub is fantastic, and didn't mind me watching what he was doing and explaining the process to me. Marco and Mike the electricians did incredible work (and so fast). Every sub that came in, knocked the job out quickly and masterfully. It is clear that Mike has spent a long time putting together his team, and the results of the house show that.
The job site was always kept clean (as clean as you can with a total gut), the workers showed up promptly at 8am and the work was completed on time and on budget. Mike was always very communicative through out the reno. His customer service is superb. Sonoma will not leave a job until you are absolutely 100% happy with the work.
Forget the other contractors on here, you will not find a better group than Mike, Aldo and the crew at Sonoma.
