    My wife and I were looking around for a contractor to make some changes to our master bath and kitchen. After speaking to several other contractors, we met with James about the remodel/renovations we wanted and he made us feel very comfortable from the beginning. He was very knowledgeable about what it took to make the changes we were interested in doing. And he gave us realistic, upfront information about what to expect.After going over our goals, James presented us with a detailed proposal that met our budget and timing. James stayed in touch throughout the process and was always willing to answer any questions we had along the way. His input was crucial to the decisions we ultimately made in changing our bathroom to a magnificent oasis, and our kitchen into a stellar family friendly cooking area.James and his crew were very meticulous about treating our home as if it were theirs. They did impeccable work, making sure to clean up every step of the way. We are so pleased that we decided to have Distinctive Renovations perform the work in our home. Were looking forward to the next project. We will certainly be using James and his crew. If you are looking for high quality workmanship, we highly recommend Distinctive Renovations for any of your home improvement projects. You will not be disappointed.

    I can’t say enough wonderful things about James and his team. They did a remarkable job on my kitchen, flooring and wall update in my living room. No regrets in choosing him and his team over 2 other quotes. Let me be clear, all three quotes from three different contractors were right around the same ballpark. I chose James because of his attention to my vision, his guidance and suggestions as we walked through the options and planning. I was even more impressed with his team. Enrique is a true right hand man. They made our living situation as comfortable as possible as they worked on the projects. They kept things nice and clean after every job. I was blown away on the final day when all projects were done and it looked like they had hired a cleaning crew but it was the guys who made it all ready for me to do the fun part. Setting up.I can’t forget Amy and her cabinet guys. They were precise and fast. Love my cabinets. Thank you so much, it was such a pleasant experience to work with you and your team James. Felt like family.

    James and his team truly saved our house after having terrible work done by a contractor team’s that compromised the integrity of our house. James hired all the right people to fix the joists, level the top floor, reinforce beams, fix dry wall and do new dry wall, lay flooring the right way, install tiles the right way, and this list goes on. There were so many horrible pieces of advice that we were originally told and James and his team came in to resolve the advice and get our house completely renovated. In addition to all the work on the inside they did great work on the outside. They extended the porch beautifully and did a wrap around staircase as well as installed front fencing. Anything you can name, literally, his team did. He even hired outstanding plumbers and an electrician. You can trust James and he restored my faith in being able to find a trustworthy and reliable contractor to do work in Galveston, TX. I’m so grateful James went outside his usual service area of League city and Texas City to come and fix our major house problems. I’m so thankful for the Beautiful work and his amazing crews!

    Not sure how to do this – but I’ll try to explain our last 8 weeks of working with Distinctive Renovations. I chose this company for the impeccable reviews of its owner, James Ogden. My personal advice is to choose wisely. Look at reviews. Really take a deep dive and see if the GC can deliver for your needs/wants. You want experience (they have), and you’re going to want someone local (they are).Before I begin with James, I cannot go any further without referencing Jessica Ogden and the entire crew who work at Distinctive. Thank you. Excellent work. Reviewers typically focus on James -because he will be your primary contact. Because our job was so big and complex – we got to meet everybody. This was #truly a #team effort. They performed exceptionally well and exceeded expectations. Very professional and friendly with the entire family.James Ogden deserves the high praise he receives in his reviews. They are, indeed, true as he exhibited them first-hand to my family. I cannot express enough gratitude for the patience and friendliness.We were YOU just 8 weeks ago. Searching for someone to “fix” our broken-down home. Our problem was unique in that our home is 100 years old with many, many more issues than a traditional, newer home. We needed someone who was skilled and passionate, so we were extra selective. Lots of General Contractor options so we were picky and honestly, scared. The only thing I can provide you is I chose James Ogden and Distinctive off the long list of positive reviews. Talk with him for 5 minutes and you will quickly discover no other contractor should be considered. I’ll never forget standing in my bathroom, tub is falling through the floor and upstairs toilet is visible from below…and after his initial inspection James says, “This house doesn’t scare me. It’s just old. I’m gonna fix it.” And fix it he did. A long list of crazy wants and needs.Distinctive Renovations had a very complex job that frankly we didn’t think could get done under budget or on-time. I mentally prepared myself.I went off the reviews I read regarding James Ogden and the company he helped build. He took a very complex rebuild and made it look quite beautiful. We are so thankful for the entire team. I don’t think there is anything they couldn’t do, to be honest. They were a one-stop shop for us and they should be for you as well. We have our needs and wants met – and I don’t think any other contractor could have pulled this off! Distinctive is a business that prides themselves in their work, their legacy, and their ability to provide customers a happy outcome. They DELIVERED! From our family to yours – a very well-deserved THANK YOU!

    My house had a pipe bust in the ceiling of my home when the freeze came through Texas and flooded my entire home. James and his company came in and looked at the damage and informed me of what needed to be done to bring the house back to living standards. He worked with me and informed me of how to handle the insurance company to ensure the property damage got taken care of. His company fixed all drywall, flooring, cabinets, redid a whole bathroom from wall to ceiling, fireplace, blinds, baseboards, ceiling fans, and all countertops. His work was AMAZING!!!! My house came out beyond incredible and I couldnt be happier. I would hire him and his company again for anything that I ever needed and highly recommend his company out to anybody.

    I highly recommend James and his team. We met and discussed renovation plans and was presented with a detailed quote and detailed payment plan. I never had an issue getting in touch with him regarding questions I had, it was always a fast response to questions. We were always kept in the loop as to the schedule of the day and who was showing up and what they would be working on that day. Great communication and dependable company. Project was completed in timeline we agreed upon. We will be using them again for future projects.Before and after pictures, we absolutely love the results!

    James and his team did a phenomenal job on a bathroom remodel at my elderly mothers house. I live out of state but James kept great open communication throughout the process.He is very trustworthy, honest, and demonstated great care for my mom.

    My husband and I recently bought a house that needed floor repairs. We knew it would be a pretty big job since the square footage was around 4,000 sq. ft. We started our hunt for a contractor, not knowing exactly how bad the damage was. When we met with James from Distinctive Renovations, we knew he was the man for the job! His understanding of our pier and beam foundation and many years of experience put us at ease. He quickly got us a quote and stated that demo of the old sub-floor would need to be done to figure out everything the job would entail. It turned out that our big project was actually an enormous one!! ALL of the floor joists were rotted and cracked. Every single joist got replaced and two layers of new sub-floor was put down across the entire 4,000 sq. ft. This was a huge undertaking that James and his uncle from Continental Foundations handled expertly! All of our concerns with the floors and also the need to keep water out from under the house in the future were addressed. On top of that, there were plumbing repairs, a new deck built for our A/C units, new vents cut in the brick and lots of clean up under the house from previous workers. James’ attention to all the little details is so refreshing. His coordination of this extremely complicated project was done very efficiently. Communication with James was amazing and he always responded very quickly to answer any questions and give updates on what was being done. We will be using James’ service as a contractor for many future projects. The professionalism of Distinctive Renovations cannot be beat!!

    James team did an amazing job on our remodel. We have an older home built in the 60s and had some poorly built framing on several external walls that caused the window frame to rot. Additionally, we had similar issues with our front and back entry ways.James came over and did a detailed walkthrough of what we wanted and provided a no-cost detailed scope of work.His work crew was lead by Enrique. They arrived ontime each morning and cleaned up everyday before leaving the job. Jame and Enrique were helped answer my questions throughout the remodel process. The crew was amazing and I felt comfortable with them working on my house whenever I had to step out.Overall, I would recommend them to anyone looking to take on a major structural remodal. Very few companies possess skills to do structual remodels. Distinct Renovations was definetly up to the task!

    Had the opportunity to work with James and his crew during the unprecedented freeze in February. A neighbor recommended Distinctive Renovations and I was delighted that they responded so quickly and began to repair my frozen pipes, removed debris from a ceiling that collapsed being mindful of our health and safety. James explained in detail what needed to be done and actively worked with my insurance adjusters to make sure every item was correctly addressed. I wish there were more contractors with the workmanship and thoroughness that this company brought to the table. They were professional, courteous and thorough. Best experience I have ever had with a contractor

    James and his crew did an outstanding job at my business! Our business had extensive water damage from a broken pipe over a weekend and James and his crew did the repairs. He responded to our needs immediately and had a crew on the job the moment it was dry enough to proceed. He worked with our insurance company to provide everything needed to make the building look better than it did before the damage. His crew was timely, professional, and COVID considerate. They cleaned up each day and completed the job in record time. They worked around us so we didnt have to close our business. I would definitely use James and his team in the future and highly recommend him to anyone in need of a job needing a professional team who works efficiently and rapidly and leaves with outstanding results.

    Scope: replace bathroom cabinetry as well as flooring in a bathroom and one bedroom.We didn’t know any contractors so we relied on reviews and we like to work with local entrepreneurs when possible.We always chose people who we feel, based on first impression, take pride in their job, know what they are doing and seem reliable. James and his team really met our expectations, and not only that; they went above and beyond to squeeze us in and finish the project during a very challenging time period.We appreciated that we were given good options and thought through solutions to choose from as well as information on the way. (as opposed to a simple ”one size fits all” solution). The result is great; we are already thinking about next projects for our home and will probably reach out again soon!

    We were looking for a someone to do home remodel. After several contractors not following through I found Distinctive Renovations by goggle reviews. Gave them a call and within days came to look at our home. James and his team did a great renovation on our kitchen/living room. We called and James would always respond and give feed back . His team also great guys. Professional and friendly. Couldn’t be more please on the outcome . Can’t wait to see what our second phase of the renovation will look like. !!! Photos to come!

    Highly recommend James and his crew! James is very knowledgeable and did a great job explaining things. His crew was awesome and courteous. Our bedroom had to be torn down due to water damage and some of the bathroom. They did a great job redoing all the walls, ceiling, fixing our closet, texturing and painting. In addition, any little things they found along the way they told us about and fixed! Some of the water damage was coming from outside the windows and they fixed the source by patching the mortar. We even had a water spigot outside we hadnt gotten around to fixing since the freeze that they fixed up for us. The work was finished according to the timeline they gave and they cleaned up great afterwards! Overall, a great experience, highly recommend James and his crew!

    Distinctive Renovations is WONDERFUL!! They make your dreams a reality.I was nervous doing a big renovation like this because of previous contractor but they made the process so easy. If you’re thinking about doing any kind of renovation, do yourself a favor and call them!! It doesn’t get any better than this.Can’t wait to use them in the future.

    We had extensive termite damage where we needed to replace basically half of our home. They repaired/replaced from the roof to supports for the floor joists (and everything in between). Roof, sheeting, rafters, studs, drywall, subfloor, floor joists, siding, hot water heater reinstall, electrical, plumbing, kitchen cabinets taken down and reinstalled, tile, deck repair, exterior and interior painting....they did an amazing job. We plan on using them again when we continue work on the part of the house we havent replaced yet.

    We are near the end of our exterior reno project. We couldnt be more pleased with this journey. All of the crews that have worked on the project have been meticulous, friendly, and professional. James, our contractor, is a true blessing. His understanding of the needs of a 102 year old home have made this project a success. He has been thorough, patient, considerate, and very professional. I highly recommend this company!

    Distinctive Renovations remodeled our master bath in order to accommodate my husbands health issues. James team removed the old tub and shower and built a closet and a huge shower with grab bars. They also replaced the flooring and toilet. James and Jessica were extremely helpful in guiding me when selecting the finishes. James and Jessica were always responsive to my calls or questions; and they, as well as their team, were very considerate of my husbands illness. The shower is fantastic and the bathroom is gorgeous! I will be calling on Distinctive Renovations in the future for a kitchen remodel. Thanks to James, Jessica and their team!

    We contacted James after talking to a few contractors that didnt give us the right vibe, and he made us feel truly comfortable during the initial meeting. James impressed us with his professionalism and we selected his team to remodel our master bathroom and update our kitchen. They were able to work with our schedule and overhauled the kitchen while we were out of town, keeping us updated and also meeting the tight time frame for that project so we wouldnt have to find a hotel or make other arrangements when we got home. The bathroom was completely gutted and he and his crew helped us design and budget the custom bathroom of our dreams. This company has an eye for detail and treated the project as if they were fixing up their own house - the little things were handled with as much care as the big things. James was communicative and talked us through our concerns that came up throughout this big project.

    Working with James and his crew with Distinctive is the best decision I could have made. From the moment I called to schedule an estimate, the planning process and the on going work James has communicated, explained and guided us. He has answered all questions from small, to big, to ridiculous with patience and understanding. If you are looking for a contractor to be there day after day, checking in and listening to you, go with James at Distinctive!
