  • Bathroom vanity with two sinks, wooden cabinet, white countertop, three mirrors, gold fixtures, and wall-mounted lamps.

    "We engaged Houseal Construction to renovate our primary and secondary bathrooms this year. They were timely (in providing an estimate, starting and completing the project), easy to communicate with, and produced quality work. Meridith balanced between function, budget and design, and came up with options that we ordinarily would not have considered. We are glad we trusted her because we now have two beautiful bathrooms that we LOVE. Kyle and his crew were friendly, and kept things neat and tidy, which we appreciated because we were living in the house during the reno. It was truly a pleasure to collaborate with them on this project!"

  • "If you can imagine it, Houseal can design and build it. Recently hired Houseal for a home project and I don't have a single negative thing to say about them. They showed up promptly, they were all incredibly friendly, went out of their way to explain things to me and made sure the job was done perfectly. Kyle has a deep foundation of knowledge that extends across all the trades. On the virtual side of things, Lisa and Meridith made sure the project design was exactly what I imagined it to be. The Houseal team were all detail oriented and made sure everything was done correctly. If you have a home project, contact Houseal!"

  • Modern kitchen with wood cabinets, a white countertop island, black appliances, and three black pendant lights.

    “Kyle and his team was everything you want in a contractor and for the obstacles that where discovered along the way they always came up with a great solution. Kyle and Shawn would always listen to us and make sure we are happy with the design and construction as the work progressed. The quality of their work is outstanding with attention to details. Also want to acknowledge the amazing custom built railing and built in wall shelf with lights that Kyle designed and built. We couldn’t be happier with our renovation and feel lucky that Houseal Construction was the contractor that we ended up working with..”

    “We really love our new mini bathroom. Everyone involved in the job was very polite and friendly. We felt very comfortable having them in our house. Meridith was very quick to answer any questions or concerns that we had. We loved working together with Meridith to design our bathroom.”

    "We loved working with Houseal Construction! They were dependable, flexible, and excellent with communication. We never had to wait to hear back from them, and they kept us up to date with everything. They never complained when we asked to tweak a project and always worked with us to make sure things were to our liking. They had high standards for their work, and paid extremely close attention to detail. They were also extremely respectful of working around our living space, and always gave us very reasonable quotes. In sum, we had a great experience with them, and would not hesitate to hire them for any future projects!"

  • A modern bathroom with a white freestanding bathtub, white vanity with two sinks, two round mirrors, black fixtures, and gray floor tiles.

    "We’ve all experienced that contractor who ghosts us, who gets the deposit then stops coming to the worksite on a regular basis? This is NOT that company! They show up everyday at 6:50am (they said 7am and they were early every day. They quoted 4 weeks and today is 3 weeks and 1 day. They are packing up with some minor stuff to do tomorrow. They cover the floor with clothes and clean every day as they are leaving. The quality of work is outstanding. I now have a bathroom I’m proud of, that is everything I ever dreamed of! I’m never going to hire anyone but Houseal Construction ever again."

  • A modern kitchen with white upper cabinets, black lower cabinets, and a large wooden island. Features stainless steel appliances including a refrigerator, microwave, and oven, with a patterned backsplash and hardwood floor.

    “Kyle, Meridith and the entire Houseal team were awesome to work with. They did a complete gut and replacement of our kitchen along with some flooring and cosmetic work on an adjacent dining room, library and hallway. We can't say enough good things about them, but here are the main things: 1) They completed our project on time and on budget; 2) the quality of their work was excellent; 3) their entire team was polite and professional; 4) with one exception, they showed up every day they were scheduled to show up (they told us in advance on the one day they couldn't make it due to a scheduling conflict); 5) they cleaned up after themselves every day; 6) they listened to us and promptly addressed anything we brought to their attention (which was not much); 7) they paid great attention to details; 8) they are genuinely nice people to work with. We would use them again and would highly recommend them to anyone needing home renovation work.”

  • Modern bathroom with a glass shower enclosure, white herringbone tile walls, wooden shelving with towels and a plant, patterned tile floor, beige cabinetry, and ceiling lights.

    “We had Houseal renovate 2 bathrooms for us. We have done work on several houses over the years and worked with lots of contractors. I am very weary now and careful with who we work with. Houseal was by far the very best contractor we have worked with. They communicated regularly during all aspects of the process, created a beautiful design, and executed it perfectly. We trusted them to be in our home without us and they were very careful in our home. We had a few unexpected issues, and they were great to communicate and find a solution. We are very happy with the final product. They are true professionals and make it a painless process. We will definitely continue to use them for all future projects."

  • A bathroom with a glass-enclosed shower with dark green tiles, a white toilet behind a partially open door, and white cabinets with gold knobs.

    "We had such a wonderful experience working with Kyle and Meredith! Every other contractor we've ever worked with has asked "what's your budget" and then found a way to spend all of it. Kyle and Meredith asked "what do you want in your bathroom" and then told us what it would cost. That kind of transparency is so rare and so refreshing in this business. Meredith did and great job sourcing materials and turning our vague ideas into something more beautiful than we could have imagined. Kyle and his team were so efficient and left the house better than they found it each day so living through the construction was a breeze. We had such a great experience, we've already hired them again for a kitchen project. Highly recommend."
