Schott Development

So, I am in the middle of a remodel with Schott.  I have to give them extreme credit.  I am redoing my kitchen and building out my fireplace, as well as replacing all the counters in my bathroom.  To begin, they were very much on time and reliable during the quote process.  Their quotes were detailed and extremely easy to understand.  There were no hidden costs or details.  They ran through the project with me a few times, making sure that it was what I wanted and even made a few suggestions.

His right hand guys are Shane and Jim.  Both of them are amazing.  Shane will come out and bid the job and Jim runs the job.  Shane initially came out with Chris and we went through the job.  Then, he came out again to check things out.  THEN, he brought Jim and met with my interior designer and went through the job AGAIN to make sure that everything was correct.

Jim runs the job and he literally texts and calls all the time and gives updates.  He stays on schedule and really tries to accommodate the living situation for the person in the home.  For example, I needed my stove for Thanksgiving but we were installing the granite.  He made sure that I had a working stove so I could at least cook after the counters were installed.  It was just a kind thing to do, that he really didn't have to do, but he made it work just to make me happy.  I mean, that says a lot.   I seriously can't say enough about these guys.

The reliability and honesty factors are two of the most important things to me.  These guys won't walk off the job.  They have a portal where you can track progress and Jim is CONSTANTLY in contact with you, explaining what is going on and where the project is.  Sometimes, he will literally call me first thing in the morning to make sure I know what is going on for the day. He has even sped up some of the timeline, which was remarkable.  And through it all, he makes sure that his guys clean up as best they can, each day.

A remodel is a daunting experience, so it's really important to have people you trust running it.  That's actually really worth something.  These guys are not the cheapest, but definitely not the most expensive, either.

There have been some minor bumps with the remodel, but I was fully expecting that.  And, fyi, anyone should expect bumps and bruises during a remodel.  What is most important is that, whenever an issue popped up or a problem occurred, they immediately call and advised me.  They didn't try to minimize the issue or cast blame on anyone.  They just said, don't worry, we will fix it.  And they did.  You can't really ask for more than that, either.  Mistakes will happen - - but the question is how are those mistakes handled.    I will update this review when the remodel is done.  But, thus far, I would recommend them to anyone...

We're quickly closing on the completion of our master bathroom remodel. Chris (owner, Shane (operations) and Jim (foreman) have been fantastic throughout the project. They've been clear, honest, communicative and flexible. We're extremely happy with the finished product and hope to work with Schott again in the future for other remodeling needs in our house.

All of this said, we highly recommend Schott to any homeowner considering upgrades in their home. This is a team that you can trust and who will be straight shooters from start to finish. Kudos to the Schott Team!

There isn't enough stars for Schott Development, they deserve 1000x1000. Chris and his team are amazing and the work they do is beautiful. They take pride in ALL there jobs they do big or small. If you can think it, they can build it. I highly recommend them on your next project you have.

I had a big cable company come to my home for a service repair and the technician fell through the attic ceiling of my garage causing a huge hole and mess.

I hired a contractor recommended to me and they came out to repair the hole and they did a horrible patch and texture job, and they got paint on my cabinets and left it.  I had the company come back, and it did not look any better when they were done and the paint was still there. I would have said something to them, but the workers did not understand English.  I finally gave up on the contractor and told them not to come back.

I met Chris from Schott Development, and explained the challenge I was having trying finding someone to fix the patch job, and match the texture on the garage ceiling, and he said no issue, let me take care of it for you.

I decided to give Chris the job, and I love the results.   His team could understand English, they were prompt, very neat making sure everything was covered, and they went way beyond the scope of the job to make sure I was happy.

Instead of just patching and texturing, they took down all my hanging shelves above the cars and actually fixed every imperfection in the ceiling and on the side walls, and then painted the entire ceiling.  

Best part was my bill was exactly as quoted and Chris did not charge me a cent extra for all the additional work they did.  

So, in my opinion, I got a company willing to make sure I was happy, a great price, excellent craftsmanship matching texture, and a happy wife. Wish I would have found him sooner.

A Very forthright and honest Contractor!  I was lucky enough to meet with Chris Schott regarding multiple business matters. He was prompt, courteous and always ready to be helpful. Additionally he will give you an honest assessment of your situation, and not deliberately hide anything for later. (a situation I experienced with a lesser company)
I highly recommend him and his company for anything they say they can do. They Will.   Thanks!

We had rain damage a month before the upcoming holidays. To our dismay we needed a new roof and our ceiling repaired/restored. My parents worked with Schott Development and highly recommended them. They came out right away to assess the damage, provided very competitive pricing and were able to schedule us for repairs within weeks.

Their customer service, speed and quality was incredible! Their team replaced our roof underlayment and restored ceiling within 4 days. I highly recommend Schott Development. Save yourself the time and trouble of comparative quotes. Their responsiveness, price and quality is unmatched!

Schott Development, these guys are amazing !
Very knowledgeable, customer service is amazing!
They do residential and commercial remodeling. Would highly recommend them ..

I meet Chris through a realtor's design person who recommended Chris Schott Development to spruce up our kitchen with new back splash and tiling of a fireplace.   He sent the best tile man I have ever seen hang tile.  It was perfectly done, neat, and not over the top expensive.  It looks beautiful and it made the whole room look fresh and updated.  

Then I wanted to remodel our bathroom.  Afraid of the cost for such a large remodel, I asked around and called some recommended contractors, two of which never showed up and one who came by but then never returned my calls or sent a bid to do the remodel.  

So, I called Chris. He and Aaron arrived in short order taking in all my ideas (some pretty silly I am sure) and we talked through all the possibilities.   Chris and Aaron paid so much attention to detail and took the extra time to explain how and why things needed to selected or installed in a certain manner in the bathroom.

Chris and his team helped me with this remodel during a very difficult family time and showed great compassion.  Chris's team instinctively understand my struggles with selecting colors, making decisions on lights, and tile yet they remained patient and understanding.  

They are an extremely professional and talented team of hard working honest man. They were prompt, very neat making sure everything was covered, and they went way beyond the scope of the job to make sure I was happy with the end results.  The bathroom turned out very elegant.  I am so proud to show it to very one. Of course, taking people into your master bath is a little strange I suppose.

Chris and Aaron often helped with extra items without any additional cost.  The Schott Development firm has a great deal of integrity and drive to severe their customers in a fair and cost efficient manner.

I would recommend them to anyone for any construction project.
