I’ve engaged Igor/Olga’s services for several projects over the course of 2 years and I couldn’t be more satisfied with outcome. All of Igor/Olga's trades have been top notch; My OCD appreciated Igor's attention to detail, overseeing every aspect to ensure it was the highest quality. Their team also did some custom carpentry work which was incredible. There is also a lot of attention put to getting the work site and surrounding area clean and tidy. Overall, they are highly communicative and responsive throughout the project, provided clear explanation of costs and were very professional and organized billing system and documentation. What impressed me most was how situations throughout the project were handled; we discovered some major problems with our house and Igor/Olga were flexible in accommodating the additional work scope and provided a reasonable solution to the problem. Furthermore, anytime we ever had a concern about a work product or situation, without hesitation Igor/Olga would make it right. They stand behind their work, even long after the project was complete. We will DEFINITELY be using their services in the future!!!

Update Renovate is incredible. We had a unique project that required masonry, hardscape, and a large two-tier deck. The team also had to contend with a unique property with challenging elevations. Out of the gate Olga and Igor were extremely responsive. They reviewed the property, and got to know more about our style and preferences. They came back with various concepts that opened up a world of design options for our property. We loved the concepts and felt we'd be in great heads moving forward with UR. DESIGN They delicately balanced functionality, design, and budget. Every decision elevated the aesthetic of our property and made things much more functional for us. The only regret we had was not listening to their recommendation on one of the design details. While everyone that sees the property is completely wowed—we know what it could have been. Lesson learned—always listen to Olga. THE WORK The team showed up early everyday. Setup, work hard, clean up. They're methodical and meticulous, but most certainly perfectionists. Their building process is wondrous to watch. The entire construction process felt more like entertainment than... well a messy construction process. Over the project, we got to know the team and can't say enough about how great they all are. Our 5 year-old keeps asking if they're coming back because the misses them. QUALITY From the foundation up, everything is above code and built with quality materials. You're certainly going to get a lifetime product. We had some freak instances where materials had the most minor of imperfections. Olga and Igor won't install anything unless its sheer perfect. We appreciate that level of commitment. ABOVE AND BEYOND The whole team always went above and beyond. Especially Olga and Igor. From meet-ups to review drawings and material samples, to reviewing progress, they were incredible. They continuously monitored progress, ensured quality control and provided constant updates. Olga even helped us pick up the perfect patio furniture to complete the yard transformation. CONS There are none. As with any major project, there are things that go wrong, but with their process and keen project management, nothing gets by. Everything is rectified and made perfect. CLOSING Hire them. Design, quality, and value are all there. The experience is amazing and stress-free. Just be sure to go with their recommendations on design and materials.

Update Renovate installed a new, large deck and pergola in our backyard. Here are things that we liked about working with them: 1) When we originally reached out, they were very responsive and quickly visited us at our home to discuss our ideas 2) They then provided us with detailed renderings to help us better visualize how the project would look, which made it easier for us to decide how to proceed 3) Once the project started, they always communicated what their schedule was week-to-week and what they were aiming to complete 4) They kept us in the loop with our options along the way and continually reached out for our review/approval 5) A few unexpected challenges arose during the process (as you might expect from a large project), but they always maintained their professionalism and strived to ensure we were happy with the outcome. Would highly recommend for anyone looking to update their backyard living space.

We cannot say enough good things about our experience working with Olga and Igor. We tackled many rooms in our house with some challenging spaces and they consistently displayed great partnership, were organized and impressed us with their problem solving capabilities when design or supply chain issues came up. We absolutely love the end product which includes a luxurious principle bathroom, beautiful laundry area, new hardwood floors and pocket doors to name a few! We look foreword to working with them again in the future!

Had Igor and his crew do my deck in 2020. Top notch craftsmanship, professionalism and pricing. No complaints at all.

Loved working with Olga and Igor. They both provided exemplary service in terms of communication, project management and ultimate delivery of our final vision. Exceptional attention to detail and I very much appreciate that they went out of their way to ensure that I was 100% happy with the final outcome. We had some hiccups with delays (to no fault of their own) but they did everything in their ability to try to find alternatives. Would definitely use them again in the future and have already referred them to several coworkers and friends as well!

From the first communication to the completion of the job, Update Renovate was the best. Olga worked closely with me on the design of a new front porch and walkway, and then she developed a work plan, schedule, and budget. Igor's team completed the entire project on-time, with tremendous professionalism, and with attention to every last detail. I could not be happier with my new front porch and walkway - and enthusiastically recommend UpdateRenovate.

Olga, Igor and the Update Renovate team were incredible to work with! They were extremely professional and always accessible. Olga understood what we were looking for and quickly provided renderings of options. Throughout the process the team was always prompt and stuck to timelines. They very clearly stated any unforeseen hurdles and always came up with solutions. Both Igor and Olga provided us valuable insight on other issues that weren’t initially part of the scope of work. We will definitely use Update Renovate again. Thank you for transforming our home that we will enjoy with our family for years to come. Special thanks to Steve, Dave and Mo as well for their efforts throughout!
