Major Builders

After thoroughly screening five contractors for the extensive renovation of our 100-year-old South Tampa home, we chose Jonathan and his team at Premiere. If you don’t read this lengthy review, we highly recommend Premiere for all of your home improvement needs. Fantastic experience! Jonathan, owner, conducted an exceptionally detailed evaluation of our home, carefully considering the unique challenges and unknowns that come with renovating a century-old property. Jonathan’s knowledge, attention to detail, and thoughtful planning gave us confidence that our beloved home was in the right hands. South Tampa neighbors, Premiere is a solid contractor. Hire with confidence. The scope of work on our home was significant: bathrooms completely gutted and renovated, hardwood flooring removed and replaced, lighting and plumbing upgraded, kitchen cabinets painted, countertops and backsplash replaced, French doors replaced with windows, an exterior second-floor balcony overlooking a pool demolished, and new fencing, siding, trim, latticework, and paint to transform the exterior of the home. The craftsmanship throughout the project was outstanding. A highly skilled team installed glass, marble, and ceramic tile with precision and care. New hardwood flooring was seamlessly integrated with the original wood, preserving the character of our historic home while giving it new life. Plumbing, electrical work, appliances, and finishing details were all completed flawlessly. The days started early and the hours were long and we sincerely appreciate the dedication of each and every person that worked on our home. The project managers and craftsmen treated our home with the utmost respect, worked tirelessly, and genuinely cared about bringing our vision to life. They were respectful of our neighbors and kept the job site spotless. The cleanliness during the demo was unbelievable. We were living in temporary housing and facing a firm deadline, and Jonathan and his team consistently went above and beyond to keep the project moving and help us avoid additional expenses. Communication was consistent and thorough explanations were provided when necessary. Premiere has built an exceptional team of professionals over the last ten years who take great pride in their work. Their integrity, work ethic, communication, and craftsmanship exceeded our expectations. I would welcome Jonathan and his team into our home anytime and will absolutely use Premiere again for future projects, both large and small. Thanks, guys. And Miriam. ❤️

Renovations can be incredibly daunting, but Premiere Builders provided a seamless experience from day one. We met with several well-known remodeling companies in the Tampa Bay Area, but Premiere Builders easily won us over thanks to our general contractor, Shimi. From our very first consultation, he was incredibly detailed, professional, and compassionate. He took the time to thoroughly outline exactly what to expect regarding project timelines, transparent pricing, and the day-to-day "lived experience" of a major home renovation. What truly sets Premiere Builders apart is their impeccable communication and exceptional project management. Shimi guided us through every phase of the construction process, including demo, the build, and finish work. He was always accessible and there to answer any question or just give an opinion when I needed help choosing a fixture or finish material, truly going above and beyond to ensure everything was perfect. As the remodel was underway, we threw in many change orders, but Shimi made it extremely easy to add these things in. These additions never affected the timeline and allowed me to address everything and more in the remodel. Site management was equally impressive. The entire construction crew was wonderful—respectful, highly diligent, and dedicated to quality control. They treated our property with the utmost care, making sure to clean up the workspace at the end of every single workday. I am a self-proclaimed perfectionist with incredibly high standards, and I can admittedly get a bit dramatic or stressed when things feel out of my control. Shimi possessed an amazing ability to keep me calm and worry-free throughout the entire project. Ultimately, our home came out better than we could’ve ever imagined. The project stayed on budget with no financial surprises, and they adhered perfectly to the timeline, even with all of our added requests. If you are looking for top-notch craftsmanship, flawless communication, and a contractor who truly makes you feel like family, look no further. Premiere Builders and Shimi completely knocked it out of the park. We would absolutely work with them again, and we already have ideas for phase 2!

We have successfully completed two separate remodeling projects with Premiere Builders. Shimi was our project manager for both and we were extremely pleased! His attention to detail is only surpassed by his timely communication and follow through. Premiere has knowledgeable and talented teams of builders, electrical technicians, plumbers and finish carpenters who keep the job running smoothly. The tile installer did an amazing job! I was so impressed that the work was started quickly and constant progress was made everyday. They finished both jobs in a timely manner and stayed on budget. When design questions arose, Shimi had suggestions and ideas and he was an excellent problem solver! We are so happy with our bathroom and laundry. Can't wait for the next project!!

We hired Premiere Builders to create a new master bedroom and bathroom suite on our second floor. Working with Danes, the project manager, was a highlight. She kept us updated all the way through with clear, timely communication and always let us know what was coming next. It made the whole experience feel very organized and under control. The crews were here regularly and worked hard. There were very few days when something was not happening, which ensured the project moved along at a steady pace. Since we were living in the house during the work, I really appreciated how careful everyone was about keeping things clean and minimizing the disruption. They cleaned up at the end of each day and were respectful of keeping the rest of our home as functional as possible. The work and results were great. Any questions we had were answered right away and any small issues were handled without hesitation. We did have some change orders, which is normal in a remodel, but Danes made those conversations easy. Everything was explained clearly and the pricing felt fair. We are incredibly happy with the finished space. It turned out even better than we hoped. We have already started working with Premiere again for another project, which probably says more than anything else. I highly recommend them.

WOW! WOW! WOW!! Project Managed! DANES from Premiere Builders just completed our kitchen remodel.. DANESS was superior to work with.. We are transplants from MN and had no idea who to contact for our remodel project. We had 4 companies come and DANES from PREMIERE was the one we chose because we believed and now saw how she exemplified what we believe is the mission of this company that shows leadership, personality and workmanship. When working with clients she believes in empowering the client to what their wishes are for the remodeling project, when asked, she will give suggestions without being pushy bc she always says, it’s YOUR kitchenI . I need to add, she is a fun person to be around. We had little to no stress throughout the project due to DANES calming transparent conversations with us.(I’m not good at choosing pendents ….that was the little bit of stress I had throughout the entire project ) Thank you DANES for calming me down. 5-+ stars!! Look her up people, talk to DANES! You will not be disappointed by her or her working crew! DANES will be back in the fall to project manage our bathroom remodels! And because I’m a retired teacher…..
