I am pretty sure I doubled the sales price of the house with the work

“Lauren excels in her customer service, in her planning and preparation, and in her knowledge and experience. I found in my dealing with her that she listened carefully, that she made helpful suggestions, and that her final product was tailored to my needs and was based on my input. I was really really happy that we worked together on my mom’s house. I showed Lauren the extent of the work needed and she was able to beautifully address each of my needs. I am pretty sure I doubled the sales price of the house with the work Lauren did on the living room (satin finish restored the beauty of the wood floor), painting the whole interior of the three floor townhouse, restoring contractor-grade cabinetry (they looked like new) - got me a buyer seven days after listing. Her experience with the wood guaranteed beautiful results all around - the refinished LR floor gleamed.

Lauren is dedicated and committed to seeing things done well and seeing them done right. I have been impressed by her interest in attending to each of the little details, examples would be replacing or rebuilding damaged pieces in my own 1932 DC row house. The flaws such as poorly rebuilt moulding and carelessly done rehab are things I can live with, however Lauren noticed some of the poor workmanship and suggested ways to repair them. And she respected my indifference to the repairs.”

She understands the customer’s wants and needs

“I recommend Lauren, owner of Noel Construction Finishing, for any project and truly look forward to using her services again. She researches the best materials to use for a job and makes sure that she understands the customer’s wants and needs. The quality of her work is excellent. She is both thorough and precise in prepping for paint and painting. When she was painting my house, she cleaned up at the end of each day, leaving everything tidy. I welcome a conversation with anyone considering Noel Construction finishing, LLC. ”

It was clear to me right away that she cared about delivering a quality finished product for a reasonable price

“When I first hired Lauren my home was upside down. I had begun so many Harry Homeowner projects, all with good intentions, but seldom had the time to see any of them to completion. I finally broke down and sought professional help. I had hired other contractors to attempt to tackle the many miscellaneous projects I had, but they were simply not up to the task. Then came Lauren. From our first meeting I knew she was a different breed of contractor because of the time she took to talk with me, understand my needs and goals and customize a way forward. It was clear to me right away that she cared about delivering a quality finished product for a reasonable price, with which we would both be satisfied. Besides the drywall and painting work I had, many of my door jamb, window framing and trim issues needed specialized finishing work so that doors and windows opened and closed properly, gaps were correct and trim was properly installed. Today, all my doors and windows open, close and latch with precision and the finished products are beautiful! Her finishing skills are amazing and there is not another contractor out there who can paint with Lauren’s speed and precision. She is truly a master craftsman, finisher, artist and rare find! ”

The result was a one of a kind project that kept the character of the mid-century designed bathroom with a fresh twist.

“When I look for a contractor, I want quality work tailored to my individual taste and aesthetic. I also want it done in a reasonable time frame with a contractor I can count on to know what they are doing, and to actually show up and do the work as planned. This is what I found with Lauren Noel. She explained the steps she was taking and asked for my input, while still providing her suggestions based on professional experience. The result was a one of a kind project that kept the character of the mid-century designed bathroom with a fresh twist. ”
