We have completed several projects with Fradkin Fine Construction over the last 20years and the craftsmanship is always excellent. We continue to consider him for our upcoming projects.

Fradkin Fine Construction provides incredibly professional and thorough service, catering to the specific project needs of the client and design team. They strive to constantly improve the project. We have enjoyed immensely working with Steve Fradkin and his team on a custom home project in Seattle's Central District and are grateful for his knowledge and experience as well as his great approach and listening skills! We will always recommend Steve for any project.

The operative word in Fradkin Fine Construction is "fine". The owner Steve Fradkin and his crew did a fabulous job on a major remodel of our 1917 Craftsman, adding dormers for a bathroom, upstairs laundry, walk-in closet and a new bedroom. Steve met with us each week at the start of the project to go over details, providing a range of options and solid advice on where and where not to save money. We never felt pushed to make costly choices and he was honest about which options really had ROI. Steve was easy to work with, professional, and - most importantly - reliable and on-time! The crew was great, courteous and professional and foreman, Lionel, was exacting and detail-oriented in all the right places. They did some really impressive work creating an almost completely soundproof laundry room adjoining the master bedroom, and a somewhat complicated custom edge-to-edge skylight over the shower. As most all projects do, the cost did increase somewhat as various problems and options appeared, but throughout, Steve maintained a "guaranteed maximum" cost on the overall project. As the scope changed, the guarantee was adjusted, but if the cost exceeded the guarantee, we weren't charged. In the end we spent more than our original budget but we got way more value than we hoped. The remodel is beautiful and our family is happy. We'd turn to Fradkin anytime in the future and recommend them to anyone who wants high-quality work at a fair price.

Steve and his team at Fradkin Fine Construction are the best. We hired Steve to remodel a penthouse unit in our 1960's owner-occupied 8-unit apartment building and turn it into two separate living spaces. We worked with a great architect to develop the plans, and then Steve took it from there. Steve and our site manager Bent were so easy to work with. They were great listeners and very responsive to our concerns and questions. They were always thinking ahead to explain the impact of different decisions and give us options. We love our new home! The attention to detail and craftsmanship were beyond our wildest dreams. I wish I had another project so I could work with Fradkin Fine Construction again!

Thank you so much for your kind words. I t was a pleasure working with you and your family and I hope you enjoy your "new" homes for many years to come!

We hired Fradkin Fine Construction for a 7-month house renovation that involved taking down walls, hoisting in massive steel beams, adding on a kitchen, and more. The quality of their workmanship is impeccable, and, in addition to their own master carpenters and superb project management, they hire only the best subcontractors. Further, they also seem to only hire really nice people- people with whom you don't mind sharing your home and time. The project ended up being bigger and more expensive than we anticipated, but overall, we are thrilled with the results.

Fradkin Fine Construction has done several projects for me on three different homes in Seattle. All of the homes were along the west side of Lake Washington. All were older "character" homes, but each in a different style. He has worked with me in various teams: with a kitchen designer, with an architect, with various interior designers, with two different landscape architects. The only constant in each of the projects was Steve Fradkin. Steve has the highest integrity, he does what he says he will do, and does it right. I can't tell you how many messes he has had to clean up for me with poor work done by previous owners. I trust him implicitly. He will know the solution and he will execute it perfectly. In addition to his professional expertise, he is a pleasure to work with. And he hires fantastic crews. He is not the low bidder-- but you get what you pay for. He is not always the quickest-- he is in high demand, and has more than one project going at a time. That's the price you pay for quality. I would not hesitate to recommend Steve for any project you are doing when you want it to be done right.

Hi Kris,

thanks so much for your kind words. It's a pleasure working with you.

Steve and his team actually made the remodel of our kitchen a pleasure. With a 100+ year old farmhouse there were some surprises, and they tackled each irregularity with creativity and experience, keeping the project on budget and making our home safer and more efficient in the process. Along the way they made excellent recommendations about where and how to save money and where to splurge. Every professional, including Steve, was a master craftsman with an eye for detail. The end result is a light-filled, comfortable kitchen that incorporates and reflects the historic feel of our home, but with all of today's amenities. They were nice to our kids, kind to our pets, and completely trustworthy. Highly recommended.

Fradkin Fine Construction is superb. Steve and his team displayed exceptional knowledge, met deadlines and budgets; were up front about all costs; exceptionally organized. The weekly meetings kept us all on track and in good communication so there were no surprises; we understood exactly what was going on if they encountered something unexpected and we knew when we needed to choose appliances, tile, etc choices. We felt 100% comfortable knowing they were doing our kitchen re-model. It turned out fabulous and we would (and are!) hire them again in a heartbeat.

I have used Fradkin Fine Construction for many projects over the past ten years. The most recent being a new bathroom, a remodeled kitchen, painting of existing rooms and refinished hard wood floors. Steve uses only the best carpenters, plumbers, installers and painters. I liked the floor refinishers so much that a year later I used them to buy and install new carpet. Steve uses dependable workers that show up on time and leave the work areas clean. I like to do my own design work. Steve sent me to places so that I could make decisions about tile, flooring, accessories etc. His suggestions were so helpful, sending me to high quality companies with good customer service. I recently had some sewer problems that required Steve to restore the parts of the basement that were torn up. He has worked me into his already busy schedule. That is the kind of contractor you need. I love my new kitchen and bath remodels. They are beautiful. His estimates are fair and he always consults me if there needs to be a change. You'll have peace of mind if you use Fradkin Fine Construction.

My house was suffering from water damage. The project; took over a year to complete, involved a total change to the exterior, the building of a room over the garage, and remodeling and updating the kitchen, living room, den, downstairs bedroom, utility room, 2 bathrooms, the master bedroom and bath.I actually enjoyed the experience, and was very comfortable having them in my house! Steve Fradkin and his crew are expert craftsmen. Their work, from building large structures to the placement of intricate details, is executed with focus and precision. Creatively they are a wonderful group to work with. Their ability to problem solve when problems (opportunities) arise is outstanding. Because they are both knowledgable about design and materials as well as hold a great capacity for being creative, they are well suited to take on projects holding unique design elements. Steve and crew are integrous with communication, showing up on time, and being responsive to the quality of their craftsmanship. I highly recommend them!
