Without a Doubt!

After interviewing eight different contractors we found Travis Bowen with Epic Interiors. The search was worth it, as we couldn’t be happier with Epic Interiors and our new home! We remodeled the entire first floor of our San Juan Capistrano home that was built in 1974; kitchen, living room, dining room, family room, and powder room. We wanted an “open concept” without adding to the footprint of the house. A wall was removed between the dining room and kitchen; and the kitchen was moved, yes moved, to where the family room once was. It wasn’t just a simple remodel to update the rooms.  It was an out-of-the-box, creative design, that specifically met our family’s needs. Epic Interiors & Construction was the perfect team for us to work with because they listened to what we wanted, gave invaluable advice, and produced exceptional craftsmanship throughout the entire project.   Here is a summary of our experience with Epic Interiors & Construction and why we highly recommend them to anyone considering a remodel. Epic estimated 3 months for construction (everyone else estimated 5 -6 months). Our project was completed within 3 months!  They were very professional to work with. Their initial quote, as well as add-on expenses, were fair and competitive.There were no surprises when we finalized the bill. Epic made it possible for us to stay in our home during the remodel, and took extra care for our indoor cat. The site was extremely clean everyday and our neighbors appreciated how respectful and professional the entire crew was.  Travis Bowen knows his stuff and he has built as exceptional company with Epic Interiors & Construction. Every crew member, sub-contractor, and laborer who came into our home were professional, highly skilled, and a pleasure to work with. What sets Epic apart from others is that every person on the job takes pride in their craftsmanship. Mike was our project manager and he was unbelievable! His attention to detail, daily communication, craftsmanship and professionalism is second to none. Our project had its share of hurdles along the way but they were never problems according to Mike; instead they were “opportunities to problem solve”! You gotta love that positive mind-set! I am pleased to share that every hurdle was addressed and all problems were solved, thanks to Michael. If you hire Epic and Mike is assigned to your project you just won the lottery! Junior (also known as Jose) was responsible for our new drywall finish, ceilings, paint, and many other important parts of our remodel. He did an amazing job – our skip trowel finish is the best I’ve ever seen! He is an exceptional craftsman, installing our pocket door and exterior door locks with extreme precision.  Don, the electrician, was also a problem solver. We had a few challenges with outdoor speakers, indoor speakers, and all the other high-end appliances we installed in a 40+ year old track home, but he never gave up. He responded to every question and request we had.  We were out of town while the plumbers were here but our neighbors had high praise for their professionalism and cleanliness. They ended up re-plumbing the entire house and provided new plumbing for the Meile steam/combi oven in our new kitchen island. It was an extravagance but something I really wanted, as a seasoned home-cook. It’s exactly what I wanted and I enjoy using it on a daily basis.  We couldn’t be happier with our remodel and the entire construction experience with Epic. Travis, Mike, Junior, Don; they all went above and beyond. Travis spent time helping us with things beyond the construction. He sent us links to bathroom vanities from Houzz, provided samples of flooring, and even gave us suggestions for furniture. His recommendations were always right on. Michael is like the gift that keeps on giving. His pride in a job completed well is second to known, and his drive for customer satisfaction is comparable to Nordstrom.   We are looking forward to remodel part 2 – upstairs! We won’t trust anyone with the project except Epic Interiors and Construction!
