Mike and his team are THE BEST! They did a few projects for my home (new floors throughout, paint and a full kitchen remodel). The work was done on the timeline he estimated in the beginning and the kitchen is BEAUTIFUL. I had a tentative design made up with the woman from the cabinet store he referred me to. Mike ended up making some tweaks to the layout/design based on some conversations I had with him in the initial consultation that were spot on and so glad he recommended them. Needed some minor repairs/touch-ups when the work was done and he had his team over the next day to get it all taken care of. Even after the work was completed, I reached out with a question and he responded almost immediately. He is amazing, his team is amazing, and their work is on point.

Expert Cedar Shake Roofing in Ashburn, VA
Cedar shake roofing is a premium natural wood option for Ashburn homeowners who want a roof that stands apart from the standard asphalt look.

Elements Home Remodeling handles cedar shake installation and repair for homes in Ashburn and surrounding communities including Fairfax, Chantilly, Sterling, Leesburg, Reston, Arlington, and South Riding.
