Bathrooms

Chris just completed a master bath renovation at my Cary house in Lochmere Summer of 2023 that turned out really well. This is the 4th major project here, the 1st was 9 years ago for a full basement build out, then a master bathroom repair, then a full interior paint and guest bath renovation, and now finally this master bath re-do. He's dependable, goes the extra mile, communicates well, and has very friendly and trustworthy subcontractors for various trades like plumbing, electrical, tiling, and painting. He's even helped me pick up things in his truck at Home Depot that I've ordered for my projects like vanities, tubs, and so on. Really a great guy. Obviously repeat business speaks volumes. Several of my neighbors have used him too. Highly recommended.

CPR Construction just finished remodeling our primary bathroom in our home and we are very pleased with the result. Chris worked with us to achieve our design vision. He was always responsive and communicated what to expect throughout the project. Chris took tremendous attention to detail and provided us with an outstanding product. I would not hesitate to hire CPC Construction in the future.

I had been putting off a long overdue renovation, not knowing just what to expect. The work touched many areas as I redid my kitchen, master bath, hall bath, moved the laundry upstairs, and refinished the floors on the entire first floor. I was impressed when the subcontractors showed up with Chris to do the estimate. I realized that this gave them the scope of the work from day one, putting everyone on the same page. Chris was very hands-on, starting with demo day, and continuing throughout the four-month process. Communication was mainly by email and was very responsive. I was always kept informed of the schedule. On the days that I was stumbling on decisions, Chris was there to make suggestions and give me options. I am delighted with the results and am getting many compliments from family and friends.

CPR Construction recently completed a two-bathroom project for us, one of which was a complete remodel. Chris was friendly, informative, trustworthy, easy to work with, and flexible in rescheduling around our busy schedules. He made sure our house met the expectations of building inspectors and advised on any changes we contemplated. He listened to ideas that we had about future projects and was willing to schedule changes and additional requests as needed. Chris also made sure our cat was safe during construction when we were out of town! We are already planning a second home project with CPR. Good quality work!

CPR Construction recently finished our 1000 sqft basement. From start to finish, Chris was highly professional and communicative. He listened carefully to our needs and preferences, and worked closely with us to develop a comprehensive plan that met our budget and timeline requirements. Throughout the project, Chris and his team were very friendly, respectful to our home, family and neighborhood, and worked efficiently. We quickly started trusting Chris and could tell that he truly cares. The workmanship is very high quality, and every detail was carefully considered and executed. In the end, the project finished ahead of schedule. Chris was also incredibly responsive to any questions or concerns we had, and made sure that we were completely satisfied with the final product. Overall, I would highly recommend Chris to anyone looking for high-quality, reliable, and professional work. Thank you for a job well done!

I am absolutely thrilled with my master bathroom and bedroom renovation thanks to Chris. He turned the designs we created into a reality and I couldn't be happier as my bathroom looks better than I could have ever expected. I would say it is a masterpiece!!! From the minute I met Chis, when we were getting quotes for contractor selection, I could tell that Chris was going to be very detail oriented and hands on. My assessment was spot on because Chris was always at the house checking on the work that was being done if he did not do it himself. He definitely takes pride in his work and it shows. He was also always available if I had any questions or if clarifications were needed especially related to the timing of what to expect for the week and the completion of the project. I was also thankful that Chris was true to his quote as we stayed within our budget. You won't be disappointed if you select Chris for your renovation job. I will definitely be calling on him again for future projects! Thank you Chris

Our renovation was extensive, exterior and interior renovations and remodeling. Chris Raneri (CPR Construction) was the perfect person for it. He started by listening to us and asking questions and then gave us time and cost estimates for different scenarios. Once we decided, he walked us through his plan for all the work, the timeline for what he'd do and what we'd need to do, and then coordinated and oversaw that all the work was done efficiently and with such attention to detail. He juggled different trades' scheduling to keep work going continuously, identified any additional issues or possibilities as he saw them, and explained the costs, benefits, and impact of addressing them. He kept us informed on the scheduling, any changes, and any questions he had and welcomed any questions or fixes/changes we wanted. Since he's got extensive construction and remodeling background, he's developed relationships with quality subcontractors and suppliers, which meant good quality work and product and reasonable prices for us. Even with such a good relationship and confidence in his subcontractor crews, he still monitored all the work and had any fixes done immediately if found. The work was done in the planned time and to budget. And the finished product is even better than we could've imagined! It is absolutely wonderful and we couldn't be happier. We would (and probably will) use Chris again!

CPR just finished up my second home renovation project they've done for me. In 2022 it was a bathroom remodel and extensive painting and popcorn ceiling removal project, after in 2015 doing a 900 square foot basement construction from bare floor and bare walls. I am impressed by Chris Raneri who leads the company, and the quality of the contractors he has doing various trades like electrical, plumbing, painting, etc. Chris is great about communicating what to expect, has a great attention to detail, and has very high standards of his own work and other's craftsmanship, too. He's been super helpful on logistics, and is a very friendly, trustworthy guy. Having now done 2 significant projects for me, and referring my neighbors to him (who also hired him), I would not hesitate to recommend CPR. My projects have turned out great.

Our Primary Bathroom renovation with Chris turned out to be a great experience - even during a pandemic! Chris was thorough, organized, patient and responsive. Prior to starting the project, he set realistic expectations based on supply chain availability and offered alternative ideas and suggestions to help off-set even more extensive delays. He listened to our ideas and our "must haves" before making any suggestions to ensure he had a good picture of what we were envisioning. When a change was necessary due to structural discoveries during demo, he gave clear information and was open to talking through multiple solutions instead of just telling us what we had to do. All of the sub contractors he brought in for the project were professional, polite and efficient. We found the experience to be a positive one and are pleased with the final outcome. We would definitely recommend Chris and we would use him again for another renovation or addition.

This is the second project I've done with Chris now and his attention to detail, quality of work and fantastic subs are nothing short of tens across the board. After our first reno with Chris (our entire main floor including powder bath, kitchen, removing walls, etc) we knew that if we took on another major project he would be our guy - we didn't even call other GCs for quotes because working with Chris is just too good. In this project, we renovated our master bath, along with some odds and ends across the house (including adding recessed lighting, board and batten, updating some electrical, doors, etc). I was VERY particular on what I was looking for and he was able to accommodate everything physically possible. We went from an 80s style bathroom to a beautiful retreat that we will be able to enjoy for the years to come. Key things to note - he is SUPER responsive, including nights and weekends (which is great for two working parents); his subs are completely trust worthy (in two projects I have not had one bad experience with a single sub); and the quality of work can't be beat. I can't recommend him enough. In fact, it's all I do as soon as a friend or family member even mentions a project, I always throw his name out :) Thanks Chris! See you again in a couple of years probably because I can't stop adding projects on!

Chris completed a master bath renovation for us. The finished product was/is beautiful. There ended up being a hidden issue. Chris immediately came to our home to address. People always express how happy they are with a project. We were and still are, but I think it is a sign of character and trust that Chris addressed a problem months after the project was completed. He clearly takes pride in his work, his word and making things right. I would highly recommend Chris to take on your next project.

Chris and CPR Construction did a master bathroom and utility room remodel for us. Despite various nationwide supply issues during the Covid pandemic Chris was able to coordinate the various aspects expertly and true to the budget. His attention to detail and insistence on perfection for both labor and materials was unparalleled. Though Covid produced various twists and turns his regular timely communication with us helped make the project stress free. On a scale of 1-10 Chris and CPR would rate a 10 and we are very pleased with the result.

Chris just finished building a mother-in-law suite within our home and we truly could not be happier with the result. The rooms are sparkling from top to bottom with new walls, closets, doors, paint, floors and light fixtures. The old bathtub has been replaced with a step-in shower with handy grab bars, the doorway has been widened to accomodate wheelchairs (which we hope to never need), and a transom window has been added for natural light. The kitchen and bathroom cabinets from Chris's recommended vendor are gorgeous and fit the spaces perfectly. Chris also rebuilt our deck with Trex materials to allow direct access from the suite via a new exterior door. We appreciated Chris's hands-on approach immensely; he does much of the work himself and came by the house every day when other trades were working. He did not cut corners, dealt efficiently and timely with unforeseen issues found behind drywall and in the stressed supply chains of 2021 and 2022, kept the work areas clean and tidy (except for the dust, which I believe is unavoidable), and kept us apprised of progress and problems as they occured. We will call Chris for all of our future building work without hesitation. In fact, I did just that as this project was wrapping up. Our tweny-year-old hot water tank rusted through during the coldest January I have experienced in North Carolina. While swapping out the old tank for another would have been straightforward, we had planned to switch to a tankless hot water heater in a year or two anyway to make room for an additional half bath. Chris has spent the best part of his week putting together a tankless system, a plumber, an electrician, and a new high-pressure natural gas line, and handled the carpentry himself in order to get us back on line in three hectic days.

Chris made the remodel of our master bath an easy, seamless process. He was incredibly thorough in his work and communication, making the end result beautiful.. We are thrilled with the results and would highly recommend him!

Chris and his team did a complete renovation of my upstairs guest bath, and the experience was professional from start to finish. Chris’s knowledge and experience enable him to provide terrific feedback regarding material selection and installation. I appreciate how well-informed he kept me of the work schedule, and I am extremely pleased with the quality of the work. This was the second renovation CPR Construction has completed at my house, and I look forward to working with Chris again on my next project.

We hired CPR Construction to finish our attic into an additional bedroom, office, and bathroom. Chris worked patiently with us and provided expert guidance on how to turn our attic into livable space. Laying out a small bathroom in a tight space under the roof was an early challenge, and he worked interactively with us to figure it out. Throughout the project, Chris did an excellent job with communication. He stayed in touch and kept all aspects of the work moving along. All of his subcontractors (electrical, HVAC, plumbing, painting, floor) were professional and friendly. Our attic is now a wonderful living space and one of our favorite parts of the house.

We recently had our basement finished by CPR construction we are very pleased with the outcome. Chris kept us updated on the work being performed on a regular basis and the the project was completed ahead of time. We are happy with the work that we will definitely be considering Chris for future projects.

Three reasons we found CPR Construction to be an exceptional partner in the renovation of our master bath: Attention to detail - Chris is an outstanding project manager; he met all expectations for timing and cost. Quality of work - All involved had very high standards and were meticulous in their work. All sub-contractors were first rate. Working with the client - Showed great respect for the homeowner. Extremely responsive communicators, went out of their way in recommending features, helping with vendors, etc.

CPR Construction renovated the entire first floor of our house (kitchen, powder room, study, family room, sunroom) in under 10 weeks. The sheer amount of work that Chris and his team performed at such an accelerated pace is a testament to his planning, budgeting, and execution skills. The work was completed on-time, on-budget, and with results that are impeccable. We never once worried that a task would not be done perfectly as it was obvious to us after the first week of working with him that Chris takes tremendous pride in his work, and expects the same from his team as well. We highly recommend CPR Construction and look forward to working with Chris again when we renovate the upper floor.

CPR Construction has raised the bar for quality and service. I would highly recommend CPR construction for any remodel/repair work. They were very professional, courteous and helpful throughout the whole process. Chris Raneri kept us informed on a daily basis and answered any questions or concerns we had no matter how small. They took pride in the quality of work they did remodeling our kitchen. A refreshing change of pace from most contractors, the CPR crew showed up on time and got the job done within the anticipated time frame. I was amazed at how quickly things happened. When looking for the right granite counter tops, Chris went out of his way to make sure we found the perfect selection that we wanted. We will definitely use CPR again and encourage anyone looking to remodel or needing repair work to contact Chris. It was a pleasure working with them.

I hired CPR Construction to manage multiple renovation projects in my split-level home this past summer. The primary project was a complete renovation of our two upstairs bathrooms: the master and hall baths. Chris drew up a detailed scope and provided a solid quote. The only variations involved extra work that I authorized prior to completion. Chris was able to offer good advice on the relative cost trade-offs involved in the project, allowing me to spend my project budget on the changes that mattered most to us. He did an excellent job managing the project from start to finish. We were so pleased with the job that Chris did renovating our bathrooms that we decided to renovate the downstairs playroom earlier than planned. Painting rather than replacing was a suggestion that Chris made in order to fit the project to our budget, and we very pleased. Chris completed numerous other small projects to finish things off. He handled every project, big or small, with great organization, professionalism and wonderful attention to detail. He communicated very clearly and was always on top of every detail. We plan to hire Chris next year to undertake the renovation of our third bathroom and the addition of a screened porch in place of our aging deck. It has been a pleasure to work with him.
