“They were fantastic to work with! Our contractor had great ideas and her construction crew were so friendly, courteous and excellent at dealing with problems that arose—while still completing the project on time. Every day they left the construction area tidy. Plus I have a puppy who they graciously allowed to come visit every morning and randomly throughout the day to check progress! An excellent experience that took 3.5 weeks but ultimately felt like no time with how easy and unstressful it was.”
Nicole T., Arlington, VA“Sweeten found us the dream contractor for our project!”
Ray M., Dupont Circle, Washington DC“I had hit a lot of walls when comparing quotes and seeking a contractor prior to Sweeten. Without finding their page, this renovation may still be incomplete.”
Brandi F., Rockville, MD“This contractor made a nightmare situation for me so easy to navigate and rectify. From planning and coordinating with the Project Manager to working with the contractor and company for the actual remodel, I couldn’t have been more satisfied. Great communication, very responsive, and well knowledgeable. Great work, done with attentiveness and care. A+ all around, would recommend!!! Sweeten was a breeze to work with as well. So glad they matched me with a contractor who turned out to be exactly who I needed for the job!”
Marcus S., Congress Heights, Washington DC“I don’t think we would have found our contractor without Sweeten and he was a perfect fit for our project. The work was high-quality, the workers very professional, and the communication excellent (and rapid—our phone calls/emails/texts always were responded to in minutes). Everything was done with great care and, where appropriate, creatively. The results exceed our high expectations. Next time we need a contractor, he will be my first and only call.”
Ezekiel H., Dupont CircleGeneral contractors in Washington DC are in charge of managing all aspects of a major remodeling project. They supervise all planning and permitting, and oversee demolition and construction with their team that includes project managers and subcontractors. If the scope necessitates the expertise of architects or designers, your contractor will coordinate with them. They will also bring on expediters or engineers if a structural or procedural issue arises.
Experienced firms will know how to work with your board or HOA to get necessary approvals for a remodeling project, which is a typical delay during the early stages. Working with a Sweeten general contractor in DC will move your project from beginning to completion delivering quality results on time and within budget.
