Atelier507

Dreams do come true! My wife and I bought our house in north Phoenix almost 2 years ago and have wanted to replace the original 1994 kitchen ever since. After talking with a few contractors, we met with Bobby of Atelier 507 and immediately had a positive feeling about what could be accomplished. He came back quickly with a presentation that clearly fulfilled my vision for our new kitchen, and his cost estimate was right where we wanted to be. Our new kitchen included all new cabinetry, granite countertop, tile backsplash, a custom island 3x the size of the old one, plumbing and installation of lots of new lighting. I could go on and on about what a great job his crew did, but what impressed me the most was Bobby's constant follow-up and communication. He also had wise input regarding some of my initial ideas, and I'm glad I took his advice. We finally have our dream kitchen, and now that it's complete, are delighted that we can highly recommend Atelier 507 for your home remodeling needs. They do both large and small projects, and even though our kitchen was one of his smaller projects, Bobby always made us feel like we were his most important customer. Atelier 507 delivered on every promise on time and on budget.

I would give 0 if I could. I sincerely wish that we had the positive experiences that other reviewers seem to have had... it is hard to believe they dealt with the same company. I would not recommend Atelier 507 to anyone, for any reason. I am writing this review because I've noticed an increase in Atelier507's advertising, and I think anyone considering this business should be aware of my family's experience.

We signed a six-figure contract with Bobby in December of 2020 for our home remodel. We ultimately paid that entire contract amount, plus about 60% more.

To this day, the work is not complete. Bobby abandoned the project before we were able to pass the City of Phoenix's inspection process. So, we have not been able to close out the permits with the City of Phoenix.

We were initially told that our home would be finished in March of 2021. It still isn't, 18 months latter. Bobby did find another company to complete the work when we informed him of our intent to file a complaint with ROC after he abandoned the project, so I am hopeful that we will be finished with this chapter in our lives soon. It has caused a lot of stress for our family.

The work that was completed required (and still requires) significant repair and "touch up" work. The work was rushed and not carefully completed. It seemed that Bobby wanted to complete the job as quickly and inexpensively (for him) as possible.

Some examples: The grout and drywall in and around our primary bath shower is severely cracking. The shower tiles themselves have begun to crack. The drywall around the title is cracking. The shluter around the shower niche is sharp and sticks out from the wall. Our child's bathroom tile has similar issues. The shluter around her tub is sharp and sticks out to the point that she recently cut herself while getting into the shower.

He purchased (basic, undoubtedly inexpensive, white) paint for the interior of the home without consulting us about paint color. We were told that was the color our walls would be painted, because the paint had already been purchased. The paint was thinly and sloppily applied.

The kitchen layout was not well planned. We are unable to open one of our refrigerator doors. We purchased our appliances prior to the remodel; still the kitchen design was not compatible with what we'd purchased. The kitchen backsplash was installed quickly and carelessly: the grout is cracking, and the square tiles are noticeably off center above the stove. The "under cabinet lighting" was screwed into our cabinets so that the sharp end of the screws were poking through the bottom of the cabinets.

Our plans included a pantry/mudroom, which had to be scrapped due to poor planning.

When we finally had no choice but to move in to our home in October 2021 (despite the fact that it was unfinished), we spent my. first few days there cleaning urine, grime, and pubic hair off of our "new" toilets. We still find cigarette butts in our yard. A custom-built entertainment center was damaged. A box full of our clothing was used as a trashcan (and cigarette receptacle). There is paint splattered on our flagstone patio and pool deck. Our kitchen cabinets were full of trash. The crew left behind their garbage and extra supplies for us to clean up.

We have paid Bobby every cent we owed. And when we were asked to make progress payments early to accommodate Bobby's vacations, we did. Still, when we expressed concerns, we were reminded of the fact that Bobby was "trying to run a business," that it "wasn't worth it" to him to have anyone come to our home to address issues, and that there was a "million dollar project" that was Bobby's priority. At the beginning, Bobby was professional and accommodating... that did not last.

I hesitated to post a review prior to our home passing a City inspection because I just want the project finished so that our family can move on. It's been a year since we moved into a construction zone, and this process has been a nightmare. I hope that sharing our experience helps others to make an informed choice.

This company was a joy to work with! From the first call I made to completion of the project they were professional, reliable and trustworthy. We are extremely happy with our remodel.

We used Atelier507 to remodel our kitchen, floors, build a closet and other misc items.  We are now planning on remodeling our master bathroom.  Not only are the professional and reliable but Bobby and his whole team are a pleasure to deal with.  Bobby's advice on the design was extremely helpful and made the projects less stressful than anticipated.  I would highly recommend them.

Working with Bobby and his team on our guest house conversion was a pleasure. Bobby is a very talented architect/designer. His overall design from the initial rendering to the final build out was outstanding! The fact that Atelier507 provides full project integration -- from design to full contractor services and project management -- made the process efficient and convenient. Bobby listened to what we wanted, was receptive to feedback, and the project was on time and done within our agreed upon budget. His team was professional,  reliable, extremely hardworking, and kept the workspace tidy throughout the duration of the project, which we very much appreciated. We definitely would recommend Atelier507 to anyone needing a talented architect or considering a remodel/renovation project.

We used Atelier507 to remodel the tiling of our master bathroom shower, add a niche, and update the water fixtures. Throughout the entire process, they were very responsive, provided 3D renderings of what the final look would be and would update the renderings for any detail we want to add/remove/adjust. Atelier507 also provided progress photos during and after the project. They did an excellent job and were very professional. We are very satisfied with the final look of our shower. I highly recommend using them!

Bobby and team completely remodeled two showers and a bath. They were terrific - customer-focused, detail-oriented, reliable, punctual, and excellent communicators. Bobby checked-in frequently and made sure I was happy with the outcome. Overall, they made the entire process easy and I am delighted with the outcome. I would hire them again and have also recommended them to other family members doing a kitchen remodel.

Bobby is absolutely fantastic to work with. From the second we met, you could see the level of passion and detail he had. He made remodeling painless and easy, wouldn't recommend using anyone else in Phoenix!

We didn't choose Atelier eventually because of availability but he showed on time for his quote, was very patient and took notes and measurements. He called later and apologized for his lack of availability.

As soon as I met Bobby I knew I wanted to hire him. He was professional, knowledgeable, and carefully reviewed and discussed the details of my project. I had just purchased a house and needed work done prior to moving in, so my timeline was tight, 2 - 3 weeks. I had new flooring put in, new interior paint, recessed lighting, new light fixtures and hardware installed. Bobby got it done quickly and efficiently and maintained excellent communication throughout the process. I was amazed at how hands off the process was. Bobby ordered the materials I had selected, and also helped me pick out some other items. He has great taste and a good eye for what will work best. Don't let the small number of reviews stop you from working with Atelier507. I was hesitant at first because when we started the process they were new to Yelp and did not have any reviews. Now I am so impressed with Bobby and his team I would recommend him to everyone and use him again on future projects.

We hired Bobby to design our backyard make over and some small projects in the interior of the home.  From the first time we met him until he finished the project, he was attentive to our needs, was in constant contact with us as the project progressed and was transparent about the cost and the process.  As with any project, there were always things that unexpectedly came up and Bobby always found a way to resolve the issues, keep us informed, and prioritize our concerns.  We have already consulted him with a carport redesign, which will also include an additional of a new room and storage area.  We are confident he will do a fantastic job and would recommend him and his team to any project.  He has great ideas, great taste and listens to what the customer's needs and desires are.  Highly recommend him!

Our project was a renovation of our kitchen. Our cabinets were 20+ years old as was the lighting. Bobby and  his crew demolished the cabinets, installed new cabinets which are more modern than the originals. Painted the walls, upgraded the electric outlets, including one I that I requested with USB. Also new LED lights were installed. Also new counter tops and backsplash all around the kitchen. The 4 four man crew was very professional, and paid attention to detail throughout the renovation. 2 of the crew did the demo work, the same 2 installed the cabinets and painted the walls. The third member installed the tile, while the fourth did some electrical, some plumbing and also did the grout work. The kitchen brand new, with new appliances whch the crew also installed. We have 2 more projects the Atelier 507 will be doing and I look forward to working with them again. Bobbi who is an archetect and designer was on site everyday to review the days  work with the crew and to review the progress with me and my partner. Again they were all very professional.
