“After some minor water damage in my kitchen, I made the decision to remodel the space now rather than waiting two years like I originally planned. I did a great deal of research on designers, general contractors, kitchen & bathroom re-modelers, etc., and I asked friends, relatives and neighbors for referrals as well. After several visits to big box retailers, cabinet dealers, designer showrooms and setting up several in-house consultations, I secured six (6) estimates to compare. My decision to hire Travis, Mike and “Team Epic” as I call them was based on the quality of their work, their professionalism & integrity, and their understanding of (and respect for) my wants, needs, priorities, concerns and personal style. Their creative ideas, recommendations, practical options and pros & cons for each major decision were invaluable throughout the process. I was thrilled with the end results and I love my new “open” kitchen! Not only does the style, look & feel tie in beautifully with the rooms & space adjacent to the kitchen, but the kitchen now provides a welcoming and inclusive vibe. Travis, Mike and their team (Jose, Victor, Marcos, Ivan, Joe) were wonderful to work with, and I will definitely hire them to remodel my master bathroom for my next big project!”

EPIC turned out to be a good decision
“I was nervous about hiring a contractor for our remodeling project. After all, we were spending a lot of money, and it’s impossible to know everything about contractors under consideration. Our choice of EPIC turned out to be a good decision. We are very pleased with the process and the final result. We recommend them and plan to hire them again. Every person with EPIC, from the owner on down, was professional and courteous. Travis, the owner, and his assistant Mike were responsive to emails and texts throughout the process. The workers were skilled, meticulous, and took pride in their work. For example, when a technician from a pest control company came to do some work, I overheard EPIC’s tile guy insist he put down a tarp to protect “my floor.” Workers showed up when they were supposed to and cleaned up their work area well each afternoon. Travis was initially reluctant about my unconventional choice of soapstone for the countertops. Once he accepted my decision, he did a great job of coordinating with a second company I hired, Soapstone Werks, to make it happen. For example, Travis made it a point to be onsite for the countertop template appointment and used the opportunity to work out several important issues I knew nothing about with the soapstone guy. Travis does an excellent job of designing a cabinet layout that maximizes space, and he was helpful in selecting cabinet style, backsplash tile, and flooring. I was on my own for other design decisions, such as wall color, faucets, cabinet hardware, lighting fixtures, and window treatments. If you are not confident in your own taste, you may need to hire an interior designer to help you. Cabinets were completed and the kitchen demolished earlier than projected – not the way these things normally go! My overall project took longer than expected, but the delay was entirely attributable to my choice of soapstone countertops, not EPIC. There were no surprises financially. Changes made during the process were priced out, discussed, and agreed upon.”
I LOVE MY HOUSE!
“Travis , Mike, and the entire team at Epic were outstanding! We had thought about this project for a long time and talked to several contractors. I was comfortable with Travis and Mike from the first meeting–professional, easy to talk to, listened to us, gave suggestions. I appreciated the detailed estimate–I knew exactly what to expect and the end result was true to the estimate. We started at the beginning of October and needed the entire project complete by Thanksgiving which included carpeting the entire upstairs and part of downstairs, wood floors in family room, kitchen , and through to the front door, complete kitchen demolition and new everything! Travis and Mike were on top of everything! We completed the project the week before Thanksgiving! I can’t say enough about Travis, Mike, Junior, Israel, Victor, and the whole team. All of these people were a pleasure to have in my home! They were extremely skilled, polite, friendly, and beyond helpful. I really appreciated that Travis and Mike responded immediately to any questions–communication was a breeze! Most important–I LOVE MY HOUSE! The kitchen and new floors are absolutely beautiful!! Lots of company over the holidays and rave reviews for the beauty and workmanship! Planning to do bathrooms in the near future and Epic is definitely my choice. Thank you Travis and Mike!”
My Kitchen Remodel
“Travis and team were great! They worked with us on a tight timeline, incorporated all my ideas and were very clean and respectful of our home. I have my dream kitchen now!”
Home Remodel
“We hired Travis Bowen and his team for a major remodeling of our house. This included remodeling of the kitchen (with custom-made cabinets) and bathrooms, installing wood floor, replacing carpet,Pex repiping of the whole house and addition of LED dimmer bulbs. Travis and his team were there for us at every step and just a phone call away. We were impressed by enthusiasm, caring and honesty we saw in various team members. They were good listeners who were involved in bouncing back ideas with us, liked to be challenged and to think outside the box and were flexible to incorporate what we desired even through unexpected twist and turns involved in large remodeling projects. I highly recommend Travis and Epic Interiors to those thinking of remodeling their houses in OC area.”
Kitchen and Bathroom Remodeling
“Travis and his crew were excellent. They were on time, kept commitments, and communicated. Work was well done and also on time! Couldn’t be happier with the results!”
Water Damage No More!
“The entire Epic team was excellent and the thing that really impressed me most was their commitment to getting every last detail right, to complete the job 100%, down to the last few inches of paint. We called Epic originally to help with our water damage but they ultimately became our contractor for replacing the floors and countertops. Their advice regarding materials was awesome – where to go, what was in our range (given the insurance estimate) – and we ended up with wood floors and granite countertops way beyond anything we imagined. We worked with Kelly Rogers and he’s a true professional and very good guy to work with and is extremely knowledgeable in the whole process we were involved in – from insurance to safety to construction, etc.. We’re contemplating redoing the floors in our foyer now and there is now doubt who we’ll call.”
Remodeling Plus
“Travis and his crew were very professional throughout the course of the job. We appreciated that he was very open with us in the process of deciding what we wanted our new bathrooms to look like and was a real partner in helping us figure out what would work and what would not. We did experience a couple of problems over the course of the remodel, but I think Travis does a nice job of either explaining what’s happening or taking immediate action to resolve the problem. A couple of our materials got delayed in shipping and Travis was good about communicating that to us and what it might mean for our project timelines. Epic generally outsources plumbing work to a subcontractor (but never uses subs otherwise). In our home the plumber didn’t properly cap a pipe, causing a leak in the floor between our bathroom and kitchen below. Travis’ crew was at our home immediately to resolve the problem – they redid a portion of our kitchen ceiling and repainted the entire thing within 24 hours, no questions asked. And most importantly, we are very happy with the quality of the work done in the bathrooms. They look great and everything that’s been installed works well. This is a company that takes real pride in doing the job well and they have personable employees who are easy to welcome into your home. When we had questions about various things in the house over the course of the project, Travis and his employees were unfailingly patient and helpful in discussing them and talking about our options. Overall, this is a really good contractor to work with and I would have no hesitation hiring them again for future work.”
Awesome Remodeling Experience!
“Nothing less than EXCEPTIONAL service was provided by everyone involved with this remodeling. We selected this company based on a referral and we are glad to have made the right choice. Our family needed assistance with restorations after a flood had occurred in our kitchen. There was a language barrier that limited communication which could have easily caused addition issues. The employees at EPIC had such PATIENCE and UNDERSTANDING of what our concerns were that the language barrier became a non-issue. Our remodel was completed within the time frame promised. The professionalism each employee carries within themselves at EPIC is unmatchable. We initially had no idea what to do but now that it’s all over, we couldn’t have made a better choice. I would definitely recommend them to any of my family or friends in the future.”
Exceeded My Expectations
“The project plan was very detailed. There were unforseen bumps in the road, but all were handled professionally and on a timely basis. Work order changes were estimated and handled in order. All our expectations were met and exceeded. This was a 6 week project that took 8 weeks. The extra time was due to conditions outside of Epic’s control. We communicated about this and all was good. Travis has an exceptional skill in design. We wound up with a finished product that we were amazed with. We downsized from a 2900 square foot 2 story house to a 40 year old 1100 square foot single story attached unit. He maximixed the storage available for every square foot of this place. Just ask for the pictures and you will also be amazed. “We are now planning expand the home to 1300 square feet which will include roof and room expansion (blowing out of exterior walls), all new windows, doors and a total kitchen remodel. Epic has a great team. We are looking forward to the next phase, probably 6-8 months long for the amount of work that has to be done.”
