This contractor offers a large array of services. Normally, you have to hire someone to update your bathroom plus another person to lay flooring and tile and a third person to do a closet organization system. They provide all these services. John is detail oriented and maintained a clean work site.

The entire crew was awesome and completed the job on time and exceeded my expectations. Would highly recommend to anyone looking for any sort of home remodeling. 10/10

John did a fabulous job with an upgrade in my parent’s kitchen by adding subway tile to the wall over the kitchen sink and counter. His attention to detail is superb! You couldn’t ask for better craftsmanship than what you will receive from Down Home Contracting. I would highly recommend John to anyone! Plus, he’s a great guy! Thanks John!

John has a wealth of knowledge for home projects. He put together some woodwork that goes nicely in our laundry room, and he did a shoe storage rack for us as well. Attention to detail is important to me, and it is for John too. He puts out a quality product!

I needed a handrail for some steps in order to pass an FHA inspection, so I hired a builder. He had to cancel due to injury, and at the 11th hour, Down Home Contracting stepped in to save the day, and prevent the closing being delayed. Quality work comes at a price, and that's fine with me. You get what you pay for. It's not just materials and labor, but expertise and knowledge. I recommend Down Home Contracting unreservedly, and should I need further work done, they will be the first people I call.

He painted my bedroom and did a wonderful job. It’s a large bedroom, and it took a few hours one day. Very pleased with his work.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ I recently hired John from Down Home Contracting for a comprehensive home renovation in New Castle, Pennsylvania, and I couldn't be happier with the results! 🏠 John is a true professional who exceeded my expectations in every aspect of the project. He installed durable and beautiful laminate flooring throughout my home, giving each room a fresh and modern look. The bathroom renovations he completed were especially impressive, with both the primary and master bathrooms getting a full makeover, including a tiled shower with a sleek fluted sliding glass door. 🚿 John's attention to detail was evident when he repainted my courtyard fence and back deck, bringing new life to my outdoor space. He also sealed the roof and skylights for leaks, ensuring that my home is well-protected from the elements. 🌧️🔨 John handled everything from sliding glass door replacement to tree removal 🌳 with expertise, making sure that even the smallest details were taken care of. He also updated some electrical systems and replaced the old hot water heater with a new, energy-efficient model. 💡🔥 I was particularly impressed with the siding and soffit repairs, which were done with great care, adding to the home's curb appeal. John also installed new appliances and updated the pressure gauge for the well pump, ensuring everything was in top working order. 👍🔧 If you're looking for a reliable and experienced general contractor in New Castle, PA, I highly recommend Down Home Contracting. John delivers top-notch home renovation services, and his work truly speaks for itself! 🛠️🏡 #HomeRenovation #GeneralContractor #NewCastlePA #LaminateFlooring #BathroomRenovation #RoofSealing #SlidingGlassDoor #TreeRemoval #SidingRepair #ReliableContractor #DownHomeContracting

I contacted John about my chimney needing some work. I was on a slight time crunch as our roof was being replaced in a matter of a few weeks. John came to our place to assess the job and gave me a quote. After we agreed John showed up the day he said he would be there. He made the whole experience hassle free for me, he retrieved all the materials needed and kept in close communication during the project. He drove to many different stores to get the best price on the materials needed and through his determination he even secured a cap for the chimney free of charge! The chimney looks brand new and my wife and I are very pleased with the results. The price was fair and in line with the quality of work that was done. Would recommend John to anyone.

We LOVE our new basement. John had a great suggestion for how we could reconfigure the layout to create more space; he was the only contractor with that idea and it made all the difference. John really made sure that every step along the way was done correctly. His team was here at the house every morning while I was here with the kids; they were really nice, down-to-earth guys, and I always felt totally comfortable having them here. The work they did was excellent. I'm glad we went with John! Check out the pics!

Saxonburg Serenity: Transforming Spaces with Luxury Bathroom and Flooring Renovations

Saxonburg Serenity: Transforming Spaces with Luxury Bathroom and Flooring Renovations showcases the expertise of Down Home Contracting in creating elegant and functional living spaces. This project, located in the picturesque town of Saxonburg, PA, involved the complete renovation of two bathrooms and a significant flooring upgrade using premium luxury vinyl plank. Our goal was to blend aesthetic appeal with practical design, delivering a luxurious and comforting sanctuary for the homeowners. Key features include the use of cutting-edge materials and imaginative design techniques to efficiently maximize space and enhance natural light, while maintaining a seamless style throughout the home. One of the primary challenges was integrating high-end functionality within the limited space, which we overcame by utilizing a minimalist design approach with meticulously chosen materials. This renovation was achieved on schedule and within budget, a testament to our team's precise project management skills. The revamped spaces now offer enhanced durability and easy maintenance, providing long-term convenience and increased property value for the homeowners. By transforming these rooms, we've also elevated the daily living experience of our clients, enriching their lifestyle with elegance and comfort. To replicate Saxonburg Serenity's success in your own home or to explore how Down Home Contracting can bring your renovation dreams to life, contact us today.
