Review 1 (2024-09-26 - Rating: 5)
Beyond Outstanding. I don’t often write reviews, but the quality of work done by Elite Contractors Services has been exceptional. To begin with this large remodel plus addition (1,700 sq feet) was completed on time and on budget, with quality that far exceeded my hopes (a rare event in my experience). Ken’s team converted a two-car garage into a master suite with bathroom and laundry room and built an addition with two offices, a recreation room and an oversize two car garage in four months. The work was completed so that the addition exactly matches the architecture of our mid-century modern house. The addition looks like it was always part of the original home’s construction – right down to the tiniest exterior and interior details. Neighbors walking by stopped to tell us how impressed they were with the speed and quality of work. Ken was able to do this because he has a dedicated crew of seven guys with a foreman who started the first day and worked steadily on our project every day till it was finished (no hopping around from job to job). From the concrete foundation to the final paint, trim, and finish the work, every step met the highest standards. Ken and his team are a dream to work with, and they went out of their way to respond to every one of our requests as the work progressed. They were so responsive that this is the first time I ever had a remodel completed with no punch list at the end. Thank you Ken.

We hired Elite to renovate our mid century home. We presented Ken with a BIG challenge: to renovate almost every part of our home under a VERY tight schedule and to work with us as we made many last minute changes to our evolving design. We are very pleased with the outcome! He finished on time and the house looks amazing. He really does care about the quality of the work and pays close attention to the details. He is generous, patient, and wants your project to be perfect. Ana spent hours on her computer making sure that our kitchen cabinets fit our design perfectly, down to the centimeter. Contracts and estimates were straightforward. No unexpected overages. Thank you Ken and team! Well definitely use Elite for future projects.

Ken and his team were great! Responsive, clean, efficient and the quality of workmanship was flawless. Our project involved a 1000 sf addition to include kitchen, bathrooms and primary bedroom all on a 100+ year old home and required expert carpentry, management of aged plumbing and antiquated wiring. Unlike so many in the construction industry, Elite Contracting is truly a professional organization. I will absolutely use them for our future remodeling needs.

After seeing the work Elite Contracting Services did with my best friends home (a total remodel and new construction), and getting estimates from 3 other local contractors, we decided to use Elite to remodel our entire home... great decision. We love our new home and learned so much in the process. We had very little time, average budget, and needed lots of help to pull this off.With very little advance planning and even shorter notice, Elite helped us take my 1954 childhood home into 2021 for future generations to come. Every inch of the house was redone in some way, and we built a new addition for a primary suite.No project goes without challenges. The key to success if finding someone you want to go through those challenges, and we believe Elite was the best fit for us. Always recommend taking the time to plan each room/project carefully. Details matter. Elite will help you get there. The team is friendly, skilled, and clean up well after each day on the job. We are very happy with our home!Here are a few before and after photos.

If there were six stars, I would give them twice!!! This was our first large home improvement project and we had LOADS of questions. Ken met with us during the design phase of the project and explained options that allowed us to save money, but get everything we wanted in a high-end addition. Ken was also uber patient with this DIYer who wanted to be part of the build process and do less technical elements of the work. Lastly, Kens crews were super courteous, clean, professional, and always prompt!Today, we have a beautifully, functional addition to our kitchen and home. We consider Ken and his team personal friends and recommend them to everyone we know.Best Regards,Tolan & Kym

Excellent, could not have gone better. The owner and his wife run the business and they are both hands-on people and love their work. Very good communication. They provide excellent workmanship and materials and they pay attention to detail. Great warranty service as well. They also provide excellent help with making choices on cabinets, lighting, counter-tops, tile, siding, etc. Spotless cleanup after the work. We remodeled one split level built in 1958 and did a 1400sqft addition. It was a massive project and we had a construction loan. It was delivered on-time and a little over-budget, mostly due to our own oversight and enhancements. For larger projects I recommend a contingency fund which saved us. For another project it was a 3 level townhouse that was completely remodeled, and new siding, new portico, new windows, doors, kitchen bathrooms, floors, everything. It was done on-time and on-budget. I recommend a detailed review of your contract items so that you include everything you expect. You will also need to spend some time on-site to make choices about electrical and plumbing locations, how doors will open, how cabinets will fit, as well as time in their office making choices for materials. You will not regret having Elite do your project.

I recently purchased a new home that had hardwoods downstairs and wall to wall carpeting upstairs, both of which would have done very poorly with my dog. And the bathroom was straight out of 1981: dark, cramped, not a good set up. I had used Ken and his team for a much more major renovation project in a different home last year and had a great experience so I contacted him again to look at new floors (LVP) and a full bathroom remodel.I gave him my budget and my schedule (which was a little tight since I was trying to minimize the amount of time I needed to pay both rent and a mortgage). He looked it over, made great recommendations and then made it all happen on budget and early.Unfortunately I didn’t think to take “before” pictures but the new bathroom is terrific—bright, spacious, and modern. The floors look great. And Ken and his guys did all of this in three weeks—with Christmas in the middle.When I told friends that I had a contractor doing work for me on the new place before I moved in, they expressed surprise that I was able to find one. When I explained that I had worked with him before and had complete trust in him, the surprise increased. But Ken and his team met or exceeded every expectation I had, once again. (And Ana was great on helping to pick out tile for the bathroom).Ken and his guys are honest, professional, thoughtful, careful, and they do high quality work. I can’t recommend them highly enough.

Ana, Ken, and their entire crew were incredibly flexible, friendly, and competent. From design to execution to post-construction review and walk-through they exhibited personalized care, attention to detail, and a respectful and conscientious work ethic. Highly recommend!

Ken and team renovated our kitchen in January 2023 and did a fantastic job! We really felt like Ken was our partner during the project. He helped us think through our options, communications were clear and timely, and he and the team were professionals throughout the renovation. Looking forward to working with Elite in the future.

I used Elite Contractors to repair my roof. They sent a team of five professionals who worked very hard and finished ahead of schedule. I am a very satisfied customer and I recommend Elite Contractors for all your home renovations and repairs.

I never thought I would rave about an experience with a contractor, but this company is exceptional. We were looking for someone to renovate the downstairs. From the moment we called Elite, they have been diligent, hard-working, and responsible. And the work is beautiful. They completely reconstructed the walls to create a hallway, closed off and renovated a bedroom, completely renovated and enlarged the bathroom, completely renovated the kitchen, and added two windows. The owner is extremely knowledgeable and organized. From the first call, he came by when he said he would, and when the work started, he came by regularly to check on the progress and ensure we were happy with the work. He explained everything, talked through the permit process, explained the requirements to ensure that everything was up to code, and gave us a detailed contract which I have never seen from another contractor. The workers came every day, started working at 8am promptly, and worked until 5pm or after. They were polite, respectful, hard-working, and their work was beautiful and sturdy. They did great work that will last for a very long time. And promptly! They completed a complete renovation in less than two months, and the work is absolutely beautiful. Prior to this, we had had only horrible experiences with contractors. This experience was wonderful. We will call them for everything going forward, will certainly use them again, and highly highly recommend.

Ken and his team were great. I didnt worry about much. Everyday the team showed up on time like clockwork. Progress went as expected and communication was generally clear and concise. When issues arose it was easy to get hold of Ken or Ana. The project was big but it was completed in the time frame given. The workers cleaned up after everyday and our yard was kept as neat as possible during construction. I never felt like I was being taken for a ride especially given the trust one puts in a builder. Renovations are stressful but I think that this was as smooth and easy as it can be. The quality of the work was also really high and we feel confident that if there are any problems that it will be resolved quickly. Overall it was a great experience with an extremely professional company. They live up to their name.

Integrity, professionalism, expertise, and efficiency - just a few of the words that come to mind for our review! Elite Contractors Services, Ken and Ana, just completed another fantastic job on a huge remodeling project for us. A few years ago, Elite remodeled one room in our basement and when we were ready for a much bigger project (kitchen and second story master bedroom additions) we knew exactly whom we wanted to work with. Both a few years back, and during this project, his team went above and beyond anything we could have expected and were dedicated to getting every detail perfect. Another reviewer has written that Ken has assembled a group of artisans and we could not agree more. Many of the workers were the same folks who had worked on our basement a few years ago; the fact that his people stick with the company for many years speaks volumes for Ken and Ana’s integrity. We felt that the whole crew treated us like family. Ken was on site daily to make sure we were completely happy with the progress and understood each of the steps in the process. Ken’s extensive experience was instrumental in transforming our remodeling plan from something great to something phenomenal. In particular, he made suggestions for our kitchen design that dramatically improved the useable space, flow, and functionality. His team works with expert efficiency, and they completed the project in a spectacularly short period of time, even considering the many hurdles imposed by the ongoing pandemic. We couldn’t have asked for anything more professional and courteous from a better group of people. To Ken and his team: Thank you so much! Very few people can say they enjoyed their remodeling experience but we did and it was bitter sweet when you guys finished our project because we feel like we’re saying goodbye to friends. If you are looking for an all-encompassing contracting service, I suggest you call Ken and his team. There is a reason each of their reviews has five stars: they really are the best.

Elite Contractors Services Inc did an excellent job updating the first floor in our home. Ken was always available to answer any and all questions we had throughout the project, as well as offer suggestions, whether by phone or when he stopped in throughout the days while the work was being done. Everything was done in the amount of time promised and very efficiently. Kens team also payed significant attention to detail and were extremely precise in bringing our vision for our foyer to life in a way that exceeded our expectations. Should we have another project in the future, we would certainly call Ken, and we highly recommend Elite Contractor Services Inc for any home renovations.

Ken and the team at Elite Contractors recently completed a main bedroom/bathroom addition at our home and we couldnt be more pleased with the results. Not only were Ken and the team highly professional, dependable and flexible, but they were meticulous with details and very attentive to ensure we had everything we asked for. I will highly recommend Elite Contractors to anyone. Thank you to the team for everything!

Review 16 (2024-07-08 - Rating: 5)
When we considered an addition, after one failed hire we looked around again to try to hire someone on a really tight time schedule and feeling a little burned. We realized once we met Ken that he and his company, Elite Contractors Services, were different. As we explained to him our requirements (building an addition above our carport), he listened to us and actually heard us. He saw the design wed already paid another company to do and realized that it was completely wrong for us. He grabbed a piece of paper and a pen and on the spot drew a better layout on the fly that was not only a better use of space but also gave us much more of what we wanted.When Elite’s estimate for the work came in, it was very competitive compared to the other estimates competing companies gave us. We lucked into a situation where our first choice was actually a great deal too. And once Elite started the job, they exceeded our expectations. They were efficient, always kind, very professional and really made an effort to make the construction as low of a disruption as possible.On the planning side, Elite was with us every step of the way to offer advice, suggestions and even purchase bathroom fixtures for us. They even once met us at a tile store to walk through some options in person. Ana and Maria were thorough, helpful and never pressured us to make any decision before we were ready. Any large-scale construction involves having to make a ton of decisions, and we really appreciated and relied on their support during the project.As for the construction itself, Ole and the team didn’t just do great work; they always met us with a smile, explained thoroughly when any problems came up and their suggested solutions for it, and also managed to finish the job much earlier than they’d projected and on budget. We ended up with a beautiful new bathroom, a great renovated bathroom, more storage and two brand new bedrooms in an amazingly short amount of time. And the addition from the outside actually looks like it fits the rest of the house too, which doesnt always happen.So to quickly review, Elite performed the seemingly impossible task of delivering a large-scale construction project on budget, ahead of schedule AND without ever making us feel rushed while accommodating every special request that we had for them. If that isn’t Elite, I don’t know what it is.We want to thank everyone at Elite for everything they did to turn a drawing that Ken drew up on the fly into a much more functional house for us in an incredibly short period of time. (And sure enough, the house ended up looking just like the original drawing too.)We’re happy to give them 5 stars, and to tell anyone considering them to use them with full confidence.

I called Ken as one of my five quotes for a basement bathroom. Some of the reasons I chose Ken over the other four companies were: he was honest and straightforward from the start, clear in how the allowances worked, available to answer my questions, and transparent regarding permitting. The other four companies failed in at least one of those areas, hence choosing Ken’s company. I felt confident in Ken and his team.I worked with Ana to pick the various fixtures, and she made the process very easy by ordering everything. Riane also assisted with choosing some items so that they met code or worked within the measurements necessary. Both were great and I appreciated their follow up in communications. Excellent communication with contractors is hard to find, so this really helped the process go smoothly.When the job started, the first thing they did on site was post the permits. This is a small detail but with very large implications. It shows that they do things, even the smallest things, by the book. My basement didn’t even have a rough in, so there were a number of places cutting corners could be really bad down the line, and every day I felt better and better about my choice in companies.Ken also came to the site each day, something that other companies don’t always do. He was able to answer any questions I had and made sure to listen to the fine details in my overall design choice. His crew was respectful of my property and were pleasant to interact with when I would check in on the work. I have had a bathroom remodel in the past that was essentially the complete opposite, so it was great to feel like my money was well spent all around.I didn’t have any issues or set backs along the way, and we communicated well about fine detail adjustments like my preference for a different trim type than they installed (which I should have noted this earlier in the process). For those various details, all the way down to the type of light switch I wanted, I let them know and they delivered.I’m so pleased with the end result - it’s exactly what I had pictured in my mind. I would absolutely choose Ken’s company again for any project and have already recommended them to a friend. Hire them. You won’t regret it.

Ken and his team at Elite Contractors Services did a fantastic job building a mother-in-law suite on top of our existing garage (which was in much need of structural repair). We also added a dedicated spot for our car and workout room below. Ken handled everything from design to building, efficiently kept us on schedule, and adjusted based on our needs. This project also included running plumbing to the garage, which was no easy task. Ken was also very patient in assisting us with the DCRA permit process. We would highly recommend Elite Contractors Services and look forward to using them in the future!

They did a partial remodel of our basement, built a wet bar, gym, guest rooms and we are extremely satisfied. Ken, the owner/general manager was extremely responsive and always answered our questions. His crew was very professional and always on time every morning. They stuck to the timeline we agreed upon. The crew was very clean with tidying up the debris before the weekend started and after construction was completed. They did an amazing job! I highly recommend to anyone looking for major home projects and would definitely use them again for our own future projects!

We hired Elite Contractor Services to design, build and integrate a two story addition. Our main goal was to add a master bedroom with a brand new bathroom and walk-in closet and have a more open concept throughout the living area. The Elite team did a full renovation of our kitchen, and its absolutely beautiful. Ken had communicated with us during the entire project about the timeline for completion, met with us if there was any issues (which were minimum). Ana has great expertise on designing the bathroom and kitchen. She was honest, gave great advice and was open minded during the entire process. Both Ken and Ana went above and beyond to make sure we were satisfied. We are very pleased with the finished product and couldnt have asked for a better contractor with which to work. We will definitely be using Elite Contractor Services in the future for any additional home renovations.

It gives me great pleasure to write this review for Elite Contractors Services Inc. Our journey with them began when our dishwasher decided that we needed a kitchen remodel. Our neighbors referred Elite to us and had nothing but great things to say about the work Elite did for them. From the first time I met Ken I knew he was the one who could mend the damage done to our family home.During our initial visit, I shared my ideas with Ken. Some of the ideas I had could be done, while other ideas Ken advised against as he saw it as nothing more than spending additional money without achieving the results I wanted. It is rare to find a company that will provide this kind of advice.The contract we signed was based off a payment for completion timeline. For example, the first payment was due upon completion of the demo. This continued throughout the project; payments were not due until milestones were completed. When I asked Ken about this, he said, “It’s not your responsibility to make sure my team gets paid, that’s my responsibility. You will not pay anything to me until your project reaches each of these milestones.”Elite estimated 3 months to complete our project, but we were finished in 9 weeks. Your project is Elite’s priority and Ken is on site daily ensuring that every detail is perfect! His team is skilled, professional, courteous, respectful, and will not miss a single detail. This also extends to those with whom he sub-contracts.The other half of this amazing duo is Ana. Ana handles the design and selection of finishes for the project. Ana has a keen eye for choosing the perfect compliments to your desired outcome. She is honest and not afraid to share an opinion which my wife and I truly appreciated. Her knowledge of design, trends, and price points really set her apart from any of her competitors. She will never try to upsell you and when presenting options, all of them are within your budget.They are phenomenal communicators! Every time my wife and I had a question, they promptly responded. We were never left wondering about anything. I have heard horror stories about other contractors not returning phone calls or emails. This simply does not happen with Ken and Ana. Both of them told us if we ever have questions, do not hesitate to ask them. Even the occasional 8 p.m. question did not go unanswered!From start to finish, we could not be happier with our new kitchen and dining room. Their team delivered our project on budget, ahead of schedule, and gave our family a kitchen we never thought possible. My wife got her pantry, I got my bar area, and our family got a kitchen that will be a gathering place for friends and family for years to come.

We had a great experience with Ken and his team on our Rosemont, Alexandria, expansion project. After sketching out what we wanted, we met with several contractors to request bids. Not only was Ken’s bid competitive, but he suggested several significant changes to the plans that we ended up incorporating into our design.The entire design / build process was fast and efficient, and we are extremely pleased with finished product.Throughout the construction, Ken was onsite daily and responsive to any issues that came up. It was clear that Ken has a wealth of experience in the field and enjoys what he does.I can’t say enough good things about the crew – they were friendly, talented, and professional. Their attention to detail was impressive and they went above and beyond in all aspects of their work.We also enjoyed working with Ana on the kitchen and bath design and finish selections.At the end of the day, Elite Contractors Services exceeded our expectations, and we hope to work with the team again on another project.

We couldnt be happier with our basement remodel - they did an excellent job and made great recommendations. They also went above and beyond, showed up on time everyday and got the job done ahead of schedule - all while doing high quality work. We will definitely use them again when we remodel our bathrooms!

Ken and his team did an absolutely amazing job on our full basement renovation. Elite Contractors provided an extremely competitive quote for our Renovation and stuck to our budget throughout the whole project, despite me making several changes. The quality of the work for all components of this project, to include drywall, paint, bathroom installation, tiling, addition of an exterior door, etc, were all very professionally and cleanly done. The team always adhered to COVID protocols and were very friendly, professional, and trustworthy. If you want your project done right the first time, and with superior customer service, I would recommend Elite Contractors.

We contracted Elite for a major home addition including bathroom remodels. While our permits were pending, Elite did the bathroom remodels. The process from start to finish was incredible - good communication, on time everyday, good quality workmanship, and all the support we needed to make design decisions. Ken, Ana and their work crews were amazing! I highly recommend them!

Elite contractors renovated both of my upstairs bathrooms. The initial visit with Ken was great in that I gained a wealth of information needed to make an informed decision. The work was performed timely and the cost was not prohibitive. The outcome was amazing, my bathrooms look stylish and up to date. Elites work crews were professional in every respect and did not leave my home in a mess. At the end of each day or first thing the next morning, Ken came by to inspect and make sure that everything was done well. Any corrections that were required were done without hesitation. I highly recommend Elite Contractors Services, Inc.

Review 27 (2017-02-07 - Rating: 5)
Elite Contractors Services is an excellent business in many respects. The design work done by Ana is the result of carefully listening to the needs of the customer and the delivering a design that matches their budget and desires. The work is done well and the workers are respectful of the customers home, always leaving an orderly worksite at the end of the day. Even more important, Elite stands by their work. If there are issues needing correction, they are addressed quickly and made right. I found Ken extremely easy to work with and highly ethical in his dealings with me. I would not hesitate to use Elite again or recommend it to friends.

Elite Contractors recently updated our basement for us and did an amazing job! Ken came by every day to check on progress and confirm that the work was progressing as we had expected. Ken estimated a maximum of three weeks to complete the job and they were done in a week and a half! The room is stunning and I can’t say enough about Ken’s professionalism, integrity, flexibility, and willingness to work with our needs. He also provided reasonable advice regarding which design choices are worth the price vs. those where we would not see a good return on our investment. It’s clear that Ken prides himself on his work and his reputation and this was evidenced in the attention to detail while the project was ongoing and in the finished product. It’s been a pleasure to work with Elite Contractors and we look forward to working with them again for our future projects, and we wholeheartedly recommend them to others.

12/27/2013 – Gary GreggBottom Line Up-front: Yes! I would invite Elite back for a similar, smaller or larger job. | |A little background: Following the accidental flooding of our kitchen, dining and living room area due to a broken hot water valve the PuroFirst emergency services representative suggested Ken’s company; Elite Contractor Services. After this flooding mishap we decided to remodel our 25 year-old bathroom and kitchen. After Ken’s initial home-visit we met with Ken and his partner (his wife Ana) at their Annandale, VA office. While there we were shown samples of bathroom and kitchen tiles, cabinets, counter tops, tile and painted colors and fixtures. Ana then put all these ingredients together in a 3D computer kitchen model we could view at our leisure on our iMac. | |We decided to take a vacation during the week-long remodeling work. Upon our return we found both the bath and kitchen nearly completed – and from what we saw we knew immediately that Ken’s company was both a detail and artistic oriented concern. Plastic covered our furniture and after the work was completed his “clean up” crew did a superb clean-up job. We let him pick some colors and faucet designs and colors. Ken and Ana’s sense of color and design was perfectly coordinated with what we generally suggested. Communications with the firm were constant, clear and timely (calls, text and eMail) and we felt totally at ease is their collective sense of color and design during the remodeling period. And, since we live in a condominium Ken and his crew were responsive to following the guidelines governing use of loading docks, elevators and trash removal. We had our new ketches appliances (stove, microwave and dishwasher) delivered to Ken’s offices. These were then installed in our remodeled kitchen after the older appliance were taken away. | |We could not be happier with the remodeled bathroom and kitchen. There were minor items that required two return visits from his staff. These were scheduled with one simple phone call and the touch-ups were done in less that an hour each time. Working with Elite Contractor Services was a joy. Thank you Ken and Ana. | |Gary and Kristine Gregg |Belvedere Condominium |Arlington, VA 22209With our bath and kitchen completely redone ($48K total) Elite Contractors Services, INC. did a fantastic job. Included lots of timely customer service. I heartily recommend this VA firm. Ken (Elites owner) walked us through the design (with 3D graphics), material selection to completion stage. Timely work, fantastic clean-up. Plus, the firm worked seamlessly with the condo staff and mgt. Angies List also rated the firm highly.Since our first contact with Ken and Ana in 2013 we have had occasion to request follow-up visits for minor items. These visits included install new sink incinerator, newer shower head replacement and minor grout work. Ken was quick to arrange for these several visits by his professional staff.Whenever a neighbor in our condo seeks help with a unit issue I take the time to recommend Kens firm. His work is always timely and correct. I heartily recommend Elite,.

If you are looking for home remodeling and design, look no further than Elite Contracting Services. I do not have enough good things to say about working with Ken and his team. I recently got my basement/man cave finished and it turned out ten times better than I anticipated. Ken was very engaging, straight forward, honest, trustworthy, and enjoyable to work with. He is very experienced and did a phenomenal job of listening to my visions for the design of the basement and turning those visions into reality. Thank you to Ken and Elite Contracting Services for making my experience stress free and enjoyable. What a great group of professionals!

We give them five stars. We remodeled our entire house and added a three story addition to the back of our house. They were with us from the beginning to the end from the demolition to the rebuild to the final touches. Ken and Ana run a tight ship and work closely with you on every aspect of the design and construction. They have a team of dedicated workers that have been with them for years who are courteous and hardworking and pay attention to all the details. During the construction, they keep their work site clean and safe. They are very professional and delivered our house in the time frame that they gave us. It was a massive undertaking and they were the perfect team to do it. We are beyond thrilled with their very good work and cannot recommend them enough.

Review for a complete basement renovation, including adding a laundry room and full bath. We previously used Ken and the team at Elite Contractors to build a closet and partition a bedroom after reviewing their stellar reviews on Angie’s List. We were so impressed with their work and value on that project that when it came time for complete reno of our basement, they were already at the top of our list. From start to finish, Ken and his team helped us plan and realize our vision for a new basement to accommodate our growing family. PROS: Ken was extremely responsive and accessible throughout the entire project (rather than being handed off to another member of the company), their pricing was fair, but more importantly, very transparent (read: no hidden fees), the Elite staff was always courteous and professional at our home, and they were able to give us good recommendations when we didn’t know exactly what we wanted, but also worked to accommodate our customizations when we did. CONS: They were not able to start as soon as we’d hoped given their other work. However, above all else, they came in ON BUDGET and ON TIME! Highly recommend!!

Elite Contractors Services are professional, courteous and timely. I needed a basement finished within a short period of time. Ken and Ana coordinated the design and kept me informed of all the details. Their crew (not sub-contractors) showed up at 8 am and left a 5 pm, with the work area cleaned everyday. They also finished the basement a week ahead of time and it is gorgeous! Ive hired many contractors in the DC area over the last 20 years and Elite is, hands-down, the best. I wont bother looking for anyone else.

I had a great experience with Ken and his team! The work I needed done was completed ahead of schedule and with great professionalism! I had two bathrooms and a kitchen remodeled and couldnt be happier with the results. I have recommended Ken and Elite contractors to several of my friends and will use him again in the future!

I just had my master bathroom remodeled and I wanted to give a great recommendation to Elite Contractors Services Inc. Ken Rahim and his crew have done a beautiful job! They are professional, on time, clean up daily when finished, and have gone above and beyond...even fixing little extra things they saw that had nothing to do with my bathroom. But the main thing I like is that Ken is responsive. If I text or email him, he responds immediately! He also stops by daily to check in. Kens office/showroom is in Annandale and his wife Ana is the designer/office manger. She is patient and will spend time helping you pick materials and can show you pictures of previous jobs that have used those materials...tiles for example in my case, so you can see how they will look on a finished room.

Absolutely top endorsement. I am in the military and got back after being away for three years and needed help remodeling the front of our house taking down an old, dilapidated porch and replacing it with a nice portico. We spoke with three other contractors prior to finding Ken Rahim and Elite Contractors. They either blew us off (Zelaya) or came in way over budget. Ken responded immediately to our call and met with us shortly thereafter. We had a good conversation about what we wanted. He LISTENED closely and came back a few days later with a strong proposal. Ken took care of the permits with Fairfax county and was flexible enough and always available to discuss changes as the project progressed. He was at our house nearly every day checking on how things were going and making sure we were happy with his crew. His crew is the secret to success in my opinion. He hires his own people to do 90% of the work. There is none of the standard having to wait for an electrician or a plumber or the painter or days upon days of down time. Progress was made everyday - it was an awesome feeling. The team was at the house every day by 8 am and worked throughout the day. Orli, the team lead, is a master craftsman and wonderful person. They cleaned up at the end of every day which made us and the neighbors happy. The other key for us and another reason for the 5 star review was Kens personal involvement and accessibility. He truly wants the job done how you want it done while willing to give you his perspective based off of 20 years in the business. Great overall experience, we highly recommend Elite Contractors and will absolutely rely on Ken and ECS the next time we need work done on our house.

After interviewing numerous contractors, we decided to go with Elite Contractors for our DC bedroom floor addition and bathroom. I was very please with the work ethic of the company and the employees. The organization not only made our dreams of having a bedroom addition come true but they completed all of the work in less than 7 weeks! Even during COVID-19, the workers were very safe. They came in with PPE, were clean and neat and social distanced as much as they could from my family. This was a great experience overall and I will consider Elite for future jobs

We had Elite build us a Sunroom Addition that had a lot of special order materials and unique challenges based on the particular configuration our space. Elite was very professional and did an excellent job on this project, especially their finishing work.Elite worked with multiple vendors and installers to pull everything together for our space. While there were some bumps along the way, as is the case with every construction project, Elite made sure that any problems were addressed quickly and correctly making this one of the best contracting experiences we have had.Our new space is better than we envisioned and has already provided countless hours of enjoyment for our family.Thank you Elite!

I recently had the distinct pleasure of working with the team from Elite on an addition to my 115 year old house, which included a new kitchen and bedroom, as well as two bathroom remodels. Ken, Ana, Mike and the entire crew exceeded every expectation I had going into the process. The crew was clean and very respectful of my home. On the days that I was home to see, I was constantly amazed at how hard they all worked. Ana was wonderfully patient as I obsessed over finding the perfect backsplash tile; Ken provided sage advice on all aspects of the project; and Mike, the architect and structural engineer, deserves sainthood for his time commitment to the permitting process. I absolutely love the finished product. I cant thank the whole team enough for their work and I hope to find opportunities to work with them in the future!

Kens company finished our basement. The completed work is amazing!Ken has gathered a group of craftsmen who are artists. Their combinedwork is so beautiful, that our formerly dreary basement is now integratedseamlessly into our home. I cannot praise them enough for their skills.The crown jewel is the new bathroom. It is a masterpiece of master craftsmen. Ken is a pleasure to work with, and the guys are skilled, polite,and respectful of their workspace. Dont bother looking any further, this is the company that you want! Yes, we would love to use their services again and again!

The end result is beautiful and completely exceeded our expectations. We couldnt be happier and absolutely intend to use them again in the near future.

I just finished a complete renovation of the first floor of my house...Down to the studs. New kitchen, half bath, master bedroom etc. You hear nightmare stories about contractors. My experience was the exact opposite. I was out of the country for the first month of the project and I trusted them to move the project forward and they absolutely delivered. My project was delivered on time and on budget. I absolutely recommend using Elite. You will not regret it!

Review 46 (2020-12-17 - Rating: 5)
Absolutely ELITE! After 2 full bathroom remodels and a new office for my wife and since we have had such great previous experiences with Ken and his team. When it came to installing new handrails, pin top balusters, shoe rail and newel posts we once again elicited the professionals. Since staircases were so new to us we did our due diligence and contacted a couple stair experts for ideas and estimates. Importantly I should mention how difficult it was even finding someone willing to install a s-curve and gooseneck so that the handrail is continuous around corners. We knew what we wanted and I quickly learned not only was Elite one of the few willing to install a s-curve and gooseneck or was even capable of such but the cost was also less than estimates I received which would not include the continuous rail. Obviously there is a difference between doing something and doing something well and in this case we could not be more ecstatic with the final results! Im not sure where Ken found his carpenter but the guy is a rock star! The attention to detail is clearly evident not only with respect to the handrails, balusters and newel posts but also the shoe and base moldings. After watching the precision he works with and how perfect the final product is, Im more inclined to call him an artist. This all before we had 9 new doors with new hinges hung. I knew hanging new doors also requires a level expertise... if you want them to close correctly. Elite also provides this service and now we finally have doors in our upstairs bedrooms! In sum, the quality of work is unparalleled, as is the cost. Scale of 1-10, Elite receives 10s across the board! Thank you Ken and your team!

It was time to renovate the support columns and the ceiling our carport. After seeing the quality expansion construction work Elite Contractors performed on our neighbors house, I met with the General Manager and contracted the renovation of the carport. The quality of work was excellent and completed on schedule. The workers were courteous, uniformly attired and kept the work area organized and clean. Great company and a very pleased customer. Highly recommended.John A.

We recently remodeled our home with an addition to a 1950s Rambler. The ask of Elite Contractors Services Inc. was simple. Design, build and integratethe addition into the existing house to bring the house upto date with modern open-concept living and at the same time make it appear seamless. Wordsdo not do justice to the efforts of Ken, Ana and their crew led by Orly. Overseen by Ken from start to finish the project was finished ahead of time andon budget. He stayed on top of all aspects of the project, kept the lines of communication very open, supervised the work regularly without fail and anyand all issues were addressed in timely fashion. In construction little details matter and Ken understands that far better than many. In our casepictures will not do justice to the work done. The integration of the roof line for the addition with the skylights and the addition of the coveredporch in the front in place of the original stoop appear as if they were part of the original build. The end results are amazing and we could not behappier. Well done!!Rajesh & Shashi

I cant say enough about how amazing it was to work with Ken (owner), his office manager, Ana (his wife and the wonderful woman who keeps him in line ;)), and his team!Before starting my project, I met with 6-8 different contractors - all who I found on Angies List. Half of them NEVER got me a quote, a couple were outrageously high, and another was so low it scared me - lol. When I first met Ken, he was professional, personable, and wasnt concerned at all about executing on the many details I had in mind. When he turned around a very reasonable proposal, within a week, it was a done deal. Based on our meeting, his professionalism, and his timeliness, I new I had a winner.The team started work immediately and Ken came by daily to check on the job. The team was always respectful, polite, and, all-in-all, pretty CLEAN (for demolishing a brick wall, that says a lot!). If there were any questions or minor issues (so-in-so missed the molding on this window, etc) I could immediately call or text Ken and it was always an easy 1-2-3 answer or fix. Even when the guys accidentally installed my bathroom door incorrectly, because it couldnt be fixed, Ken completely replaced it - no questions asked!All the folks that he brought in (plumbers, electricians, engineers, etc) were always professional, friendly, and went above and beyond. The electrician helped (and taught) me how to replace my outside light fixtures (that was out of scope). The Elite Team (Elvin, Santos, etc) actually carried my Christmas Tree in for me off the top of my car! The plumber helped me replace my bathroom faucet (again, out of scope). This is all because the people Ken hires trust and respect him. He doesnt nickel and dime his customers and he treats his employees and subcontracts the same way. Hes just not nit-picky about those kind of things - some contractors could say, no, we wont install this other light fixture without a change order, but Ken is fair and true to his word.Oh and I forgot to mention, when the project was done he had the guys spend a half day actually helping me to MOVE all my furniture and boxes into the house that were being stored in the garage!!!All I can say is my house is BEAUTIFUL. My kitchen is TO DIE FOR. And Im SO HAPPY with the final product. But, even more important than that, I found a contractor, a person, and a team that I truly TRUST - with my home, my money, my expectations. I also found friends, in both Ana and Ken. :)

My house was built in 1959 , in Arlington, VA. almost every thing in it needed to be replaced .My good luck brought me Elite Contractors and Ken (owner), he came with his architect/designer and looked the house over,took measurement, within few days came back to me with complete plans and a proposal, I looked it over asked for a couple of upgrades and it was agreed upon. A couple of weeks later permits were obtained and work started.the whole house was gutted, changed all old wiring and upgraded lines coming to house and the electrical panel, all the old pipes were removed, new furnace and AC unit, cleaned all ducts (they brought a specialist).My wifes favorite part is the kitchen ,it is the most modern design from the lighting to the back splash it is all awsome.the bathrooms (3) two old ones and a new one added, they are the best in my opinion plus the addition (over 800 Square ft.)After painting was complete the house from the inside was a brand new house,(especially after cleaning the duct work) wich was Kens suggestion.And after the new roof and siding and new wider and longer drivway I almost did not recognise my own house.from start to finish it took almost 12 week which was within the time frame that was given to me. Ken came up with a lot of good new designs for the kitchen and bathrooms that were impressive.Project manager was always on top of every step of the work, they hired top quality trades men in every aspect of the work bieng done. Always completing every step on timeThank you Elite Contractors (Ken), I have a beautifull new house.When it comes to a major job like mine I would always go with Elite Contractors Service and I highly recommend them to all who want a great job done professionally.

The best contractor we have used. Keeps the same crew and focused on getting the job done (they dont suddenly disappear and are committed throughout the day). Ken and Ana listen to the customer - detail orientated. Used them for two bathroom renovations and the building of a new bathroom. Will use them again.

Choosing a contractor was as difficult as it was frustrating in the beginning. Many places were unresponsive, too “busy” or would only take your project if you’d spend “X” dollars. I hated this process and thought it would never end, but that was until I came across Elite Contractors Services on Angies. Their gallery on Angies doesn’t speak to the true breadth and diversity of work he has done (I’ve told him, he needs to put more photos up, LOL - a little joke between him and I) but after working with him I understand why he hasn’t; he and his wife are busy responding to and making sure his customers are happy. We met Ken soon after engaging him. He is a very pleasant man with a wealth of experience and knowledge in the construction industry, and although he loves to have a good laugh he’s also a straight shooter, which I greatly appreciate. To have a General Contractor be as responsive and interested in your project was a breath of fresh air; even better was that he continued this responsiveness throughout the entire project!Once we had a contract established Ken put us in touch with his excellent Architect Ned. With his excellent eye for design and helpful suggestions, we were very pleased with our final design and couldnt be happier. We were ready and so was Ken. Some preliminary engineering checks were performed on our foundation and it was discovered that we didn’t have sufficient footers to support a second-story. Ken gave us the options we had and so we moved ahead with the additional scope of underpinning our foundation and lowering our basement by two feet since the slab would be destroyed.It was January 2022 at this point and even with supply chain constraints (especially with wood), COVID and inflation craziness Ken as he was somehow ahead of the curve and prepared enough with our project to be able to provide us with a 6 month estimate for everything to complete (July timeframe). I was skeptical to say the least and especially anxious because I had a construction loan with an interest rate lock banking on this man’s estimate.The underpinning was completed in two months as promised, all done by hand, insane!! The second story began and we were able to meet the entire Elite Contractors Service’s family! The workers Ken employs are all amazing people and excellent professionals who work exceedingly hard and put their heart and souls into their craft. They were also so efficient, they ripped off our old roof, and put up the new roof within a week. and even though they didn’t have to during those few days in between, they placed a huge tarp over our place to protect our home. I felt they treated our home as if it was their own home. In comparison, a house down the street from us was roof-less for a month before they got their materials in to build; meaning it was exposed to the weather and elements. During the project I was introduced to Ana Blanco, Ken’s better half who helped us with expenses, material purchasing such as tile, vanities, fixtures, lighting etc. She was super sweet, helpful and made that process straightforward and worry-free. When the finishing touches were ready to be made, Ken’s team were once again so helpful. They would ensure every detail was accounted for, especially specifics, such as mirror, light heights, or the placement of vanities for example. They painted and touched up spaces part of renovation, but also spaces that were affected indirectly by construction, and of course corrected any issues you had immediately. Ken called this his “Elite Treatment”, and Elite it was!My wife and I put our faith in Ken wholeheartedly, and we are glad we did, even with a few ordering issues and special orders he and his team were still able to hit the promised 6 month mark almost perfectly! I think Ken’s new nickname ought to be the “Magic Man.” We feel blessed to have Ken and his team on the job for home renovation, because not only did we make our home beautiful we were able to make a few friends along the way.

I was in charge of a major office renovation project for my company headquarters in Alexandria, VA. We are the US subsidiary of a German financial institution. I had a very tight deadline and budget. Elite Contractors were the only vendor that was able to offer the job within my limits and they did follow through on their promises.We had some unusual ideas that we wanted to be incorporated like a huge curved glass wall as part of the conference room and they made it happen.I really liked how they worked with me finding solutions for unforseen obstacles, like HVAC ductwork not being where the old design drawings had them. Without their flexibilty and creative solutions this would have caused me some major headache.I will use them again for future projects.

I am very picky about my contractors and am often teased about my high expectations. Ken, Ana, and team exceeded them. The did an addition with the kitchen of our dreams, seamlessly blended our old floors with the new ones, installed a new bathtub, custom built an office/desk space. And, all of this in just over two months. Everyone was tidy, polite, and incredibly responsive. Ken was on site every day the guys were working and Orly was a very responsible site manager. I have already had multiple friends ask for their information after seeing the quality work and being wowed at how quickly it was done. It’s been almost four months since they completed the work and we have ZERO complaints. I recommend them without hesitation.

Recently purchased a two level home. Basically everything was original and out of code. I researched and saw Kens company. I made an appointment 3 weeks out. He showed up on-time without having to remind him or call him. We walked thru the house and provided a detailed project scope, room by room. I worked with Anna on interior designing/material selections. Both Ken and Anna was both very honest and straight forward, easy to work with. They communicated well, and was always reachable throughout the project. They provided a time-line of when each component of the house will be completed. Most component was completed early, never late. His crew of employees are HIS employees. Not day laborers, though I have nothing against them, but you want consistency of the quality of work so having same group is vital. They show up everyday they said they would, on-time and actually puts in a FULL DAYS WORK. I checked arrival and departure times throughout the project. They completed the project ahead of schedule. Are they the most in-expensive, no. Even they would tell you that, but they are competitive compared to other professional companies. The reviews and pictures you see on the websites is what caught my attention. Now that the project is complete, I can say they are as good - if not better, than advertised. Do you research, talk to Ken.

We recommend Elite 100%, and then some!Our experience working with Elite Contractor Services was fantastic. Ken and his team were professional, responsive, efficient, and conducted great work throughout the duration of our home gut-renovation. The crew showed up at 7am each day, and tidied up the work site before leaving in the evening - a full six days a week. The crew were extremely clean and polite! Ken, who owns the company, checked in with us daily via email, phone, or text - and met with us in person once a week to go over progress and address any of our questions at the site. He was personally involved throughout the project and was a pleasure to work with -- an all-around pleasant, friendly, and wonderful person.Not only did Ken provide creative ideas and solutions to meet our needs, but he repeatedly and proactively sought out more economical options for some of the required sub contract work - including our roof shingle replacement, and custom doors, for which he got us multiple quotes to review (and we didnt even have to ask!). He never tried to sell us anything we didnt need, and never charged us more than was required. On the few occasions when there was an issue or change required, all we needed to do was email or call Ken, and it would be addressed the next day.The crew did high quality work from top to bottom - with especially beautiful woodworking skills on our fireplace mantle and staircase. In some areas, Ken and the crew even went above and beyond what we asked for to create beautiful, custom details - and we were incredibly happy with the result.Kens wife, Ana, who manages the design side of the company, was also a pleasure to work with. She met with us several times to guide us through our kitchen remodel and created highly realistic 3D renderings to help us visualize our new kitchen and make decisions. She too was very responsive with helping us over email and text any time we had a question about an item for purchase or design element.The entire gut renovation of our 4-story town home - including replacing all of the plumbing, electrical, HVAC, floors, kitchen, and 4 bathrooms - took just 3 months TOTAL! We couldnt believe how efficiently the crew worked, while also turning out such good work.We have several friends who have remodeled their homes in recent years and NONE have ever reported a such a positive experience with their GC. Our neighbors, on the other hand, who recommended Elite, had only RAVE reviews. We are so happy with our decision go with Elite and encourage anyone considering hiring them to do so - it was a great experience, and we are extremely happy with our new and improved home.
