What our clients are saying…

We value everything you have done, and we are very pleased the way you have taken care of us.

My husband and I had a budget in our heads about how much it would cost to replace the flooring in our kitchen and all other non-bedroom areas, and totally renovate both our guest bath and master bath. Suffice it to say that after receiving several bids, we knew that our budget was unrealistic, but we could not spend the amount of money that many of the contractors had quoted (that is from the contractors who actually sent us a quote after meeting with us, or the contractors who even showed up for the appointment). Knowing that I could minimize the total expenditure with material selections, and based on a personal recommendation of Tamara from a close friend, we decided to engage Tamara. This statement is not meant as a slam to male contractors, but working with a woman contractor brings a whole different dimension, perspective and experience on a construction project. I selected and sourced some materials on my own, but Tamara and I also did some shopping together to pick out other materials. Tamara was always open to my choices, but she also acted as a great sounding board, and came up with ideas and options that I had not considered. She is a fabulous communicator (I was never left not knowing what the next step was, who was showing up and when) and “counselor” (letting you know that everything will be ok!). I cannot sufficiently express how pleased I am with Tamara’s subcontractors. The subcontractors showed up on time, worked diligently all day, were professional, did excellent quality work and cleaned up after themselves. During the project, I added a few additional smaller projects which, of course, caused us to go over budget, but the additional work was integrated into the original timeframe. Perhaps most important for me is how a service provider responds when there is a problem. There were a couple of “glitches” during the project (they were minor and not attributable to Tamara) which Tamara jumped right on and got rectified to our satisfaction. When I talk to other people about their contractor / remodeling experiences, I know that we lucked into getting the best, and will not hesitate to recommend Tamara to others.

I think the whole house turned out gorgeous. Tamara was great at letting me put in things that I wanted and when I had no clue, she made great suggestions. She gave me 2 flooring options for the bathroom and new living and they look great. I didn’t want to look for flooring and just told basically what I wanted. She picked the shower door with glass and granite halfway up, beautiful. She made granite suggestions and the counters look wonderful with the tile that I wanted. Her tile guy and carpenter did beautiful work. Tamara and Raul figured out the stained glass piece and I think it is stunning. I love the tin ceiling in the bathroom and the vintage lighting that I got. I never thought my old floors could look this good. I wanted a vintage, unique look with modern space and I got it! Thanks to everyone!

After moving out of state, managing some repairs to my home prior to selling became quite a challenge.  Tamara and her crew alleviated that. With outstanding professionalism, very reasonable pricing and thorough attention to detail, they came through in time, within budget and allowed me to successfully complete the transaction.

Thank you Tamara!

We are really enjoying our new kitchen, love it!

Thank you again for the great work and follow up on our project!

Tamara did an outstanding job at helping me update the kitchen. Her team was also very trustworthy and dependable. Indubitably, we'll use Tamara's services again.

Thank you, it looks fabulous! I love my renovations and will pass the word on to future clients.

We had a great experience with Total Renaissance Renovations.  We called them after a broken water pipe in an upstairs wall caused water damage in several rooms of our home.  They worked with our schedule and sent friendly, highly-skilled people to restore our home.  We highly recommend Total Renaissance Renovations to anyone who needs quality work in their home.

Tamara is working on my daughter's house and worked on mine in the past. She is renovating my daughter's kitchen and painting every surface in the house. It was like having a contractor and decorator at the same time.  She is fabulous, honest and dependable. She always finishes on her deadline.
