Jim was wonderful to work with on this project. He maintained extraordinary communication throughout the entire project. Everything was done to our satisfaction. We love our new bathroom.

I interviewed several companies to do a partial remodel of my kitchen, mainly removing an old island and replacing it with something beautiful and modern. After talking with Jim with Cream City, it was clear they had the best customer service. Jim and his team were very professional with excellent communication and attention to detail. He walked me through the process from start to finish with timelines and what to expect. Jim was always willing to meet on site to discuss the details. He did an excellent job managing all the different trades required throughout the remodel. Cream City works very hard to ensure their customer’s satisfaction. I love my new kitchen with gorgeous woodwork, sleek appliances, and quartz countertops. Would recommend to a friend! I plan to work with them on future projects.

We can't thank Jim and the team at Cream City Construction enough. They were able to turn an under-the-stairs closet in our 1890s home into the most beautiful powder room, and we couldn't be happier. Jim was communicative throughout the process and they stayed right on schedule (and often ahead of schedule!). Would definitely recommend.

We wanted to remodel our bathroom by removing the original tub and creating a walk-in shower. We had several contractors over to get estimates including Cream City. Cream Cities estimate was right in line with the others. The one thing we liked about Cream City was the detailed design we were given. We then decided on Cream City.

Another challenge we had was we were leaving to go to AZ for two weeks and wanted to have this project completed while we were gone as this is our only bathroom. Cream City had their crew stop in and look at the project ahead of time and we arranged with entry into our house while we were gone.

We got daily updates on progress with pictures including finding that in our 100 year old house we had some wood rot behind the old tile. Cream City remedied this situation at their cost and completed the project before we arrived home.

Hats off to the Cream City team and their approach to our project. We are more than satisfied with the results and are now enjoying our walk-in shower.

Thanks Jim Grote and team for a job well done. I would highly recommend them for your remodeling projects.

My husband and I hired Cream City Construction to completely renovate our 1920s kitchen and back entryway. It would be an understatement to say that we are completely thrilled with our new kitchen and entryway. When Jim came over to first take a look at our space, he told us not to shove things in drawers or closets. He wanted us to let him see how we honestly used our unrenovated kitchen every day. At the time, I was thoroughly embarrassed by all of our clutter, but it immediately went away when Jim showed us the drawings for our new space at the second design meeting. He took the struggles we told him we were having (plus the ones he saw we were having) and gave us drawings that reflected kitchen dreams that we didn't even know we had. A built-in pantry, additional under-island storage, an extra large sink so dishes aren't piled up - Jim completely knocked the design out of the park, and then coordinated with his team to bring his drawings to life. I work with construction clients as part of my legal practice and am no stranger to home renovations. Despite the extensive nature of the renovations needed (including removal of a concrete subfloor!), it was the most seamless project I have ever experienced. Jim and his team were consummate professionals throughout the process, promptly answered questions, and provided us with frequent updates. They even delivered ahead of schedule! We will definitely be using Jim and his team for all of our future renovations - I couldn't recommend anyone more highly.

Throughout each phase of our project with Cream City Construction, Jim and Todd were professional, timely, creative, and responsive. Our project came in at our agreed upon budget and within our established timeframe, and they communicated with us actively the entire time. Their craftsmanship is outstanding. The work on our new master bedroom and bathroom is beautiful and timeless. We have recommended Cream City to our friends who are considering home projects of their own, and we will surely consider using their services again, should the need arise. Thank you again, Jim and Todd!

We recently used Cream City Construction for a bathroom update in our 1936 colonial home. Before meeting with Jim, we thought we would have to gut the bathroom to get everything we wanted, which I was having a hard time with. We liked the floor, bathtub and tile and really didn’t want to get rid of it. After meeting with Jim, he felt confident we could keep everything we wanted and still get everything we were hoping for. From start to finish, the project went very smoothly. The communication was great from both Jim and Todd. The contractors were friendly and did a great job cleaning up after themselves. The project came in under the original quoted price and we couldn’t be happier with the finished bathroom. It is both beautiful and functional. We would work with Cream City Construction again in a heartbeat.

We have undergone two renovation projects with Cream City. Our first project was a bathroom 4 years ago. It was a complete gut and the end product was beautiful. Jim realized our vision and has a great aptitude for maintaining the integrity of an older home. Our kitchen reno just wrapped up and, once again, we are very pleased. As per our first experience, we stayed on budget, communication was excellent, the team was respectful and the quality of work is outstanding. We highly recommend working with Cream City for your next remodeling project.
