Gilday Renovations

I have spent a good chunk of my lifetime and nearly my entire professional career working with construction contractors of varying size and focus and my experience with Gilday Renovations was my first such experience that was completely stress-free. The process at Gilday, from the earliest design consultations all the way to final punch, is characterized by professionalism, honesty, transparency and care. We contracted with Gilday for a nearly whole first floor renovation of our home, including a complete kitchen renovation, that was completed ahead of schedule and right on budget. Gilday was even able to pivot, mid-construction, to respond to an emergency flood in our basement and they were able to coordinate the remediation and repairs without impacting the remodel budget or schedule a

I highly recommend Gilday and its people. They are communicative, organized, attentive to detail and quality control, and creative about finding solutions when problems crop up. They have a variety of skills and the ability to retain specialists for any job. I began working with Gilday after the plaster ceiling in an upstairs bedroom of my 100-year-old house crashed to the floor. They took most of that floor down to the joists and made sure that the innards of the space were strong and level, and that I had electrical work that met modern standards. They also created a beautiful bedroom with a custom accent wall designed to display art. Gilday redid my front porch and some crumbling concrete steps. They replaced my old front door with a gorgeous mahogany door in a style consistent w

I hired Gilday Renovations to give me a fireplace and mantle in my newly constructed and purchased condominium. As well, I wanted to have pocket doors put in the two open doorways leading from my main living area into the den. They were BRILLIANT! They handled all communications with and obtained approval from the Board of Directors of the building, obtained permitting from the county, and did all the architectural drawings, construction, and finish work with great professionalism and expertise. Absolutely the best! I highly recommend them for your dream projects.

I highly recommend Gilday Renovations. Kevin Gilday and team gave me the kitchen of my dreams. I waited years to start this project, interviewing multiple design firms. Gilday was a terrific partner from start to finish. Their in-house architect, designer, and on-site project managers were all professional, caring, and talented. The kitchen project was a complete redesign & included the removal of a supporting wall. Then I made the decision to expand the project to also include hardwood floor installation on 1 complete level of my townhome, extensive painting, and a powder room renovation. All were coordinated by Gilday and completed beautifully. Their process is thorough and allows for collaboration, options, and compromise. No project is without it's challenges. What's most imp

We hired Gilday to do a fairly large renovation of our home in AU park/DC.  This involved the addition of a master suite, family room and basement as well as removing an old side porch to become an office space.   From the attention to our existing landscaping and preservation, to making our indoor space liveable while all of this was going on.....I can't say enough.  If you value quality craftsmanship, attention to detail, and customer service, Gilday is your contractor.  We really wanted to preserve the "1930 feeling" of this house and keep its charm.  They did that. Their standards are high and you should be prepared for what that means financially.    I always felt that we had the ultimate decision on the designs and selections.  We worked closely with the architect and designers to ke
