Both my wife and I have nothing but great things to say about Walid and Kraydi Builders. When we purchased our first home we needed to do almost a full gut renovation of the property. Neither of us had ever been involved with such an extensive project before and the scope and cost was daunting. However, our concerns were put at ease when our realtor put us in touch with Walid. Walid came out to the property before we put an offer on our house and gave us a rough estimate of what the costs would be, and once were under contract he gave us a more detailed breakdown of the costs for the work and the timeframe for completion. During each stage of the renovations, Walid was in constant contact with us. He provided us with status updates on the project, and indeed, he insisted that we meet regularly at the property so that we could see the progress on the project and so that he could answer any questions. Needless to say, when you do not have previous experience going through a home renovation that kind of open communication helped put both me and my wife at ease.

This constant communication also extended to the costs of the project as well. Prior to the project, my wife and I had heard horror stories of contractors submitting invoices that were way in excess of the initial estimate. In working with Walid, each time there was a change in the scope of work he walked us through what had to be done, what was optional, the pros/cons of any optional work, and the costs associated with the change in scope. He always made sure to seek our approval before going outside the initial scope of work and to explain the need for the change.

Finally, I would be remiss if I didn’t also point out that Walid finished the project ON TIME! We had a hard deadline for moving into our new home. We expressed this deadline to Walid in the beginning and he promised us he could meet it, and true to his word, he did.

I highly recommend Walid to anyone looking for a contractor
