    I knew what I wanted, but could not create that picture in my ask. Big Monkey Reno understood, created, completed and this was reasonably priced. Good workers, attention to detail 👏 !!To describe : beams created, crown moulding added to tops of cabinets, and white beadboard backsplash added.

    Jared and his guys started the job when they said they would and we loved the end result of our new cabinets and bookshelves. We also had the old gas fireplace removed and replaced. We will hire them again for any future projects.Before and after photos are below.

    Jared and Tracy were very nice to work with during our home project. Jared is very knowledgeable and answered all of our questions. The job consisted of replacing our front door and exhaust vents on the exterior of our home. Kevin and Christina fromJared’s team did an outstanding job. They were very nice to work with, personable and their attention to detail was appreciated. We would highly recommend Big Monkey and look forward to working with them again for future projects.

    What a Difference!!A few months back we set out to improve our outdoor space on our back deck. We had a hot tub, table & chairs, and a drill all crammed into a 10x20 deck. There simply wasnt enough room, and the surround was deteriorating and very tired. So we designed a simple 10x12 extension and set out to find the right contracting partner to bid the work. I asked around, especially on the Dads of Southern Wake NC Facebook group and people told me, Go with Big Monkey Renovation and Repair...you wont regret it.Fast-forward to this week...Jared and his team came out Monday to get started working on a modified design to our original plan adding some more space than the original 10x12 extension. Jared helped come up with some options that sounded great to us. Work started and it went at a VERY rapid pace!The best part of this story, however, is that at the end of Day 2, there were things about the design we had agreed to that we just didnt like after seeing it built and in place. We wrestled with it a bit but decided we just werent going to be happy with it as-is. I texted Jared to let him know we had some significant changes and I would talk them over with him the morning of Day 3.We talked it through and it was, No problem, Jeremy...We want you guys to love your new deck. I quickly sketched the changes and showed them to Alex on the crew and they were off to the races. In ONE DAY they had fulling implemented all the changes involving adding all new hand railing, changing the stair sizes and locations, undoing some previous work around the hot tub, and installing the new privacy surround. ONE DAY. **AMAZING**The Dads group was right...I dont regret going with Big Monkey Renovation and Repair one bit. We LOVE our new deck and cant wait to cook out there this weekend and stain it in a few weeks.

    Jared was very thorough and explained exactly what was wrong with my shed windows from a prior builder. He showed me how they should work and how easy of a fix it will be. He said hed have some workers out soon. He saw my veteran flag in the yard and offered a veteran discount. This is solid appreciation for veterans and n awesome work model. Thanks Jared!

    Big Monkey recently completed a whole house renovation of my mothers home who passed in March of this year. I was a little nervous going in to this as I have had bad experiences with contractors in the past. Jared and his team relieved me from this stress by providing excellent service, timely communication, attention to detail and quality of workmanship. They showed up when they said they would. They were prompt with completing the 30 day punch list. As to be expected with a renovation of a 40 year old home, unexpected things popped up. Jared handled these with extreme professionalism and compassion. Special shout out to members of his crew. Alex, Angel, Kevin, and Christina were amazing and takes great pride in their work. Jared also referred me to Bianco painting, D&D Trees and Churchill glass who also were fantastic to deal with. I am so thankful I found Big Monkey.

  • Review 7 (2023-03-25 - Rating: 5)

    Thrilled with Big Monkey Reno! The quality of their work and service is unmatched, top notch, beyond my hopes and expectations - I feel like I’ve struck gold by finding them.Our original goal was to make our house more functional by installing two glass doors (one 6 foot double and one single) on our dining room, but we ended up opting to do more. During his visit for the door estimate, I decided to have him also give me an estimate on builtin cabinets by our fireplace, just for grins. I’ve had the builtin cabinet estimates by other contractors before where the value/cost ratio just didn’t make sense. But Jared immediately pitched this idea for exactly how he could make the cabinets seamlessly fit with the fireplace and other design elements of the house for HALF the price of estimates from other contractors. So we jumped on it, and had him do our builtins as well.The process was a dream. We had him do the estimate in like February, approved it and got added to the schedule for March, and everything was done on time (actually a little faster than estimated) over the course of 4 days. We had them custom build both doors and design and install the builtin cabinets. Throughout, we tweaked and upgraded a few things, and shockingly we still came in under budget (so much so that my husband asked me, “why do we have all this extra money left over”). It all turned out beautifully, beyond my expectations! It has really elevated the whole look of our home.As with most renos, there were a few snags, but Jared always had a great plan. Also, our AC went out during the process. I mentioned that something was up with the AC to Jared and that I had scheduled someone to come look at it. He was like, “I have a guy.” His guy called and was over in ten minutes. Within 2 minutes of being there, they had figured out that a nail had pierced the freon line. They told Jared. Jared called me and told me he was taking care of it no cost and we had our AC back in an hour. I was so impressed with the AC guys and how they worked together to just knock it out.Like I said, I feel like I’ve struck gold by finding Jared/Big Monkey Reno. The work and service was just SO IMPRESSIVE. And while we were wrapping everything up and just talking to Jared, he was like bopping around fixing our front door knob and caulking a few gaps in other baseboards for us. I’ll be calling him for everything from now on.

    Big Monkey was fantastic! Great work, great customer service. They got us on the schedule in good time. Work was finished in good time, and he even responded to follow-up emails/calls. (Ive had trouble with other companys finishing the work and never calling back when something needed an adjustment.) We will definitely use them for future projects and recommend them to everyone!

    Big Monkey remodeled my master bathroom and I am absolutely *thrilled* with how it came out. High quality work and very attentive to detail. We ripped out the old tile, vanity, shower, and wire shelving in the master closet. New tile, new vanity, shower, toilet, scraped and painted the popcorn ceiling. We even widened the bathroom door (I had to twist to get through it without my shoulders touching both sides, previously). Will absolutely be using Big Monkey again for my next project!

  • Review 10 (2024-09-11 - Rating: 5)

    I cant say enough good things about the entire Big Monkey team. They have done a TON of work for me this summer, fully renovating my kitchen, hall bath, and laundry room, removing popcorn ceilings in the whole house and installing crown molding, rebuilding a balcony, and installing two sliding glass doors, both of which required changes to walls and exterior work to match the house. I straight up love these guys. The crew have been a pleasure to have in my home, have gone above and beyond for me, improvised adapted and overcome on countless challenges, got me thinking about the things I hadnt considered, and were kind and patient with all my questions. Jared and Tracy are attentive thorough and highly responsive. Seriously dont bother calling anyone else. This is the one.

  • Review 11 (2024-09-11 - Rating: 5)

    This is my 2nd go around with Big Monkey after they did a great job on my bathroom remodel the first time. Once the materials arrived, the crew came in and had the whole thing done in a single afternoon. Jared even made a suggestion during the estimate on a better option for my crawl space door with cement board vs using traditional wood so it lasts a lifetime.Big Monkey now offers 6 & 12 month no interest financing so all I had to do was send them my choices and they handled everything else from ordering, delivery, and invoicing making bigger projects like mine possible. Easiest contactor Ive had and the only one thats made the cut to come back for a 2nd time.

  • Review 12 (2023-09-21 - Rating: 5)

    In January, we had our master bathroom fully renovated by Big Monkey along with some more minor renovations in our hall bath and laundry room. We had a wonderful experience! Jared and Tracy, as well as their crew, were very responsive and extremely professional. They listened to any concerns and resolved issues quickly. They communicated times and showed up when they said they would. They worked out a schedule with us so that we would be able to use our hall shower even though both bathrooms were bring renovated. They even came back after a couple months to check on a problem with our tub and had it fixed! We love our dream bathroom and would definitely recommend Big Monkey to anyone!

  • Review 13 (2024-06-14 - Rating: 5)

    Big Monkey Renovation and Repair just completed a big project for me. I had my entire back wall with two windows and a door taken out and replaced with a 3 pane glass slider door. Jared Watson, the owner, listened to what I wanted, gave me a fair quote and stayed in constant and transparent communication throughout the entire project. His crew arrived every day at 8:00 am and worked constantly until 4:30-5:00. They were very efficient and made sure my property was clean and tidy before leaving for the day. Alex and Angel led the crew and made sure I had all my questions answered every step of the way. Christina and Joe, the cleanup crew, made everything sparkle before turning it back over to me to enjoy. Jared, thank you for all you and your company has done for me. It has been an awesome experience.I highly recommend Big Monkey Renovation and Repair!!!

    Proverbs 22:29 summarizes the Big Monkey renovation and repair team: Do you see someone skilled in their work? They will serve before kings; they will not serve before officials of low rank. Big Monkey is a world-class renovation company right here in Fuquay! We love the custom made book shelves they build on site. The attention to detail, craftsmanship, and work efficiency was impressive. Worth every dollar spent!

  • Review 15 (2023-12-07 - Rating: 5)

    Jared and his team at Big Monkey Renovation were great! They were quick to respond for a quote, the pricing was very fair and the workmanship was detailed and well done. We had more than 15 lights and ceiling fans switched out and a patch of drywall repaired and repainted. Everyone we worked with on our job was knowledgeable and professional. We will definitely be using Big Monkey Renovation again.

  • Review 16 (2023-10-03 - Rating: 5)

    My husband is battling brain cancer and is recently immobile. Big Monkey was able to widen our bathroom doorway quickly so that I can get him into the bathroom with his wheelchair, and it looks great. I will definitely be calling them for projects in the future!!

  • Review 17 (2024-07-02 - Rating: 5)

    Highly recommend these guys for your contracting needs. Great communication and customer service. Just had an estimate completed and they were very up front about the scope of the project - even if it potentially meant less money in their pocket. Very impressed by their professionalism.

  • Review 18 (2023-07-03 - Rating: 5)

    I would absolutely recommend Big Monkey Renovation & Repair and already do to my personal contacts. Weve had Jared and his team out for a few jobs and have more planned for the future. We needed our kitchen ceiling job (adding textured boards to the ceiling and other wood work) finished out that we started and crown installed all over the downstairs and they did a great job. Next, I noticed our front porch pillars were rotting and Jared made sure to get out right away due to the issue at hand and also helped me identify we had other exterior siding issues and even a hole in the chimney, so we had his team fix and repair exterior siding and other issues. Because it was a water issue, they fit us in the schedule ASAP to ensure no further damage was incurred. I was so appreciative of the care he took in scheduling us in right away and was clear in estimates all along the way. Next, well have them out to help with a small bath remodel that weve already discussed.I appreciate the straight forward and transparent nature in which Jared and the team do business and theyve ensured that each job was done to their and our standards. I wont call anyone else at this point to do repair or renovation jobs because I already found someone we trust. Thank you Jared and the whole team!

  • Review 19 (2022-11-07 - Rating: 5)

    So very thankful for Jared and the crew. We needed to install 2 windows in an exterior wall ---- meaning we were cutting a big hole into our home to add two windows. Jareds crew actually came to our home for the project while we were out of town on vacation. To help us feel comfortable with the project, they would send pictures during the process.....but to be honest, it only took them 2 days start to finish....when we came back our house looked amazing. Project completely done and cleaned up. Highly recommend Big Monkey Reno.

    We’re thoroughly happy with the work that Big Monkey Renovations did to redo our backyard deck. They replaced the deck surface, added new railings, extended a section and built new stairs. Co-owner Jared Watson is great to work with, along with his crew who completed the work with no delay. The workmanship is top notch.Another good point is that Big Monkey Renovation is that the homeowner pays for the supplies. There is no markup on supplies.We’re already planning on BMR to redo our siding and windows.Highly recommended!

  • Review 21 (2022-04-10 - Rating: 5)

    Jared and his crew just did multiple jobs for us. New deck, rot repair, fixing things another contractor screwed up, and a new Master Bath. Wonderful job all around. We already have another job for him on the books. Jared is amazing to work with and his crew is top notch! Such a friendly and hard working crew! You cant go wrong hiring Jared and his crew. We are so happy we chose Big Monkey to help get our house ready for market!!

  • Review 22 (2022-12-25 - Rating: 5)

    Jared’s team flipped out kitchen that hadn’t been touched since 1985. Hands down best service we have had with any contractor as we work on remodeling our home. Great communication, amazing work, and absolutely recommend. Jared’s team are second to none, show up, work hard, are positive, problem solvers and genuine. We hope yo have them back for all of our home projects! 10/10 all day.

    I used Big Money Renovations to install a new tile shower and update a master bath, and install crown molding. Turned out beautifully. The crew was very detailed oriented and friendly; and they did a wonderful job cleaning up each day. I highly recommend the gang from Big Monkey Renovations.

  • Review 24 (2021-04-30 - Rating: 5)

    Jared is the best in town, his crew that came and did the work were the best around. His A-Team (Alex, Angel & Abelardo) along with Jason. They showed up early and were so respectful throughout the entire process. My husband is stuck working from home because of the pandemic and he said he barely noticed them. The crew was mindful of my husband and everything was done within the time frame they promised. We got a new patio door installed and of course some of the wall needed to be fixed as well. Let me tell you not one single piece of garbage was left you couldnt even tell they deconstructed the entire wall and put it back together. We plan on using them again in the near future for other home renovations.

  • Review 25 (2024-01-09 - Rating: 5)

    We had Big Monkey renovate our master bathroom and were very happy with the work completed. This was our first major renovation project and Jared made us feel comfortable about the process and what to expect. Jared had excellent communication and checked in on the job daily. We always felt like we knew what was happening and I appreciated the transparency throughout the process as well. Following demo day, we had some findings that altered some of the work done but Jared communicated everything in real time and updated /resent quotes if anything was adjusted. All of this gave us confidence throughout the process and we never felt caught off guard. The workers that came in were all polite, respectful and professional. We saw the same people throughout the week and felt comfortable with the crew that was in our home. They each had their roles and timing perfectly laid out and I appreciated the efficiency in which they worked; it was clear they had a process and had done this many times. After the project was completed, Jared expected perfection and comprehensively reviewed the work with us after it was done. I also appreciate that the final walk through was completed after it had been lived in for 3 weeks.

  • Review 26 (2024-04-28 - Rating: 5)

    We hired Big Monkey to update our kitchen oven/ microwaves and associated cabinets. Our renovation involved removing old oven and microwave and installing a double oven and separate microwave, augmenting an existing cabinet, install 2 additional cabinets, install new double oven and microwave, install quartz countertop and install tile backsplash. Before we contacted Big Monkey we struggled finding a contractor that could do all the work we needed done. One of the things that impressed me most about Big Monkey is there diversity in talent. They had a person(s) that were experts in the various jobs required to finish the job. They also are great communicators, invariably in any renovation things dont always go per the original plan. When an issue came up they quickly brought it up, explained my options and moved on. I highly recommend Big Monkey for kitchen renovations.

  • Review 27 (2022-03-26 - Rating: 5)

    In all honesty I chose Big Monkey to build a pergola for us because they were the only contractor to actually respond to me and come look at what we wanted to do! That, and based on reviews.Could not be happier with the results! In and out in two days, came back to add additional bracing, timber locks and power wash the patio area. That wasn’t part of the contract.Would not hesitate using them for future projects.
