Testimonials
WHAT OUR CLIENTS SAY
“I highly recommend Lofft Construction. They do quality work for a reasonable price, which is a combination that is hard to find in my area (Capitol Hill, DC). We are repeat customers -- they did such great work on the gut renovation of our townhouse that we hired them to renovate a relatively large (17 unit) investment property as well. We are happy with the results of both projects. Most importantly, the people at Lofft have proven themselves to be trustworthy. Also not an easy thing to find, or at least to be sure of. But I've worked with Lofft for long enough to feel confident in their integrity. They are also simply nice people, and pleasant to work with.”
“I have been very pleased with the Lofft construction. The General Contractor was very responsive to my requests, provided good advice on the options I had, and closely monitored the project to deliver high quality job on time.”
“Lofft did a wonderful job on our porch rebuild and patio, as well as a complete inside and outside paint reworking. I highly recommend them!”
"The Lofft team redid our porch last fall and they did a spectacular job. Great communication, open to feedback, accurate with pricing and timing, and their crew was careful, thoughtful, and clean. We are loving our porch and will most certainly work with Lofft again in the future."
"We had a wonderful experience with Lofft Construction while remodeling our kitchen. They were very professional and completed the work in a very short time. We are also very pleased with the quality of work. We would recommend them to anyone who is looking for a good construction company."
"After speaking to former customers who raved about them, we hired Lofft for a big, difficult renovation: digging out the basement, rebuilding much of the house, and replacing all the original wiring, plumbing, and HVAC system--all while preserving many of the house's original Craftsman details. The result is awesome. Our project manager, Luis, and everyone who worked on the house were skilled, thoughtful, and creative--and just genuinely nice people to work with. They treated it like it was their own house and they really cared about the result. Luis had many good design ideas. As with any big construction project, many unforeseen obstacles arose, and they dealt with each one with perseverance and good nature. As the crew leader Erick said: "no problems, only solutions." And they somehow managed to do it at a more affordable price than other contractors. They also were efficient. Luis planned everything so that the project was always moving rapidly, which allowed us to get back in the house after only a few months. We have friends who have done similar projects with different contractors and were out of their houses for over a year."
"Lofft Construction is exceptional. I strongly recommend them to anyone in the DMV area for projects big and small. We recently completed a complete full gut renovation of our Petworth rowhome, including a brand new foundation, structural underpinning, a rear extension, and everything from scratch on the inside. Throughout the year of construction, Luis and his crews were always on time, worked diligently & responsibly, and constantly went the extra mile to make our dreams come true. They kept an incredibly tidy construction site and were very respectful & courteous to our neighbors. Lofft performs so much of their work in-house with crew members who take pride in their work and have years & years of experience in the District. And they have strong relationships with specific subcontractors for the few trades where they rely on their partners. I trust them with anything and encourage anyone in need of a GC to give them a call. In a city where so many contractors (and developers) rip people off with sub-par work and cut corners, Lofft is a name you can rely on to do it right the first time. They're competitively priced and worth every penny. Five stars to Luis, Lee, Erick, Antonio, Manuel, and everyone at Lofft!."
"Hired Lofft to install architectural stone on a living room wall. Professional from start to finish. Alex was helpful and responsive in coming to my home, talking me through the process and promptly providing a quote. Lofft was not the cheapest estimate I received but based on my meeting with Alex and previous reviews, I decided to hire them for my work. Very happy with my decision. The project began and ended exactly on schedule. Eric and Freddie were easy to work with, dependable, did a fantastic job and kept the worksite clean during the project. I'm going to redo my master bath and will look to Lofft to do the project. I'd give them six stars if the system allowed.."
"Luis project managed an ADA compliant bathroom and bedroom construction project for my 93 year old mother. I was the intermediary and worked closely with Luis. The nature of the project and customer entailed challenges that were met with kindness and professionalism. The planning process included multiple iterations of the architectural plan. Luis and Carlos, the architect, patiently helped Mom think through her requirements to solutions. Knowing the construction phase would be very hard on my Mom I made requests to Luis that go beyond what would be normal expectations. Once started we needed the construction to move to completion without delay, the schedule to be predictable and communicated ahead of time, the construction site to be isolated from the rest of the house, the site to be secured at the end of the work day, and for the workers to avoid open doors as Mom was frantic about the safety of her beloved cat. These requests were a lot to ask, and I saw how hard Luis worked to meet them. Luis communicated with me every step of the way, and was very present to support the excellent crew led by Rudolfo. The work proceeded with great efficiency, the work product is excellent, and my Mother survived. What is needed is now in place. We are very grateful to Luis and his colleagues."
