From the start Derek was responsive and clear on what he was able to provide for our full kitchen renovation. His quote was fair and he did not change... Read More the price at any point in the renovation other than when we asked him to do something differently that would clearly change the cost. For example, after demo we decide that it would be a good time to replace our old aluminum wiring. Derek was able to add that in a timely manner and obviously we knew there would be a cost change. Derek was always clear with costs and kept track of where we were at in payments.

Derek was also always on time and never seemed annoyed when we would ask questions about certain things before they were finished (I'm sure a homeowners and their kids sticking their head in and asking about various things can be irritating).

We love how our kitchen turned out and Derek even did a few Pinterest style things for us that were new to him. But they turned out excellent.

We will use Derek again and we would happily recommend him to others in the north OC area.

  Top notch service and new cabinet installation. I hired Derek at Timeless Finishes to correct a bad remodel of my kitchen. He was able to come in and accurately quote... Read More me on all work required and basically redo my whole remodeled kitchen exactly to my specs. He was there on time everyday and actually completed the project 2 days ahead of schedule. His tenacity and attention to detail is bar none and I know exactly who I will call when I need any home alterations that require a contractor. Thanks again Derek for solidifying my confidence in American workmanship and attention to detail. You have gained a customer for life.

  Derek was the best! Needed a remodel and he showed up on time and made our dream come true. Our cabinets came out perfect and I'm getting ready for... Read More him to redo my bathroom as we speak. His expertise is uncanny and can't wait to see how the bathroom come out (soon)!

  I have known Derek since he started his business several years ago. He has done work in my home from removing and laying new tile floors, painting walls and... Read More trim and staining woodwork in my kitchen, bathrooms and family room. He is the consumate professional, taking pride in his work and doing all he can to guide the home owner to making wise choices to improve the home. Derek is totally trustworthy also. I had no reservations with having him working in my home while I was at work. He maintains open communication with you to ensure the work being done is what you want. He is also conscientious to keep the rest of the house protected from the area he is working in.....taking care as much as possible to keep dust and dirt from spreading throughout the rest of the house. He is also conscientious to clean up after himself at the end of each work day so that the house is still livable and useable until his return the next day. His equipment is carefully put aside, unobtrusive and covered. I would not hesitate to call on Derek again when I'm ready to move onto my next home project.

  Derek was fabulous in every way! He was personable & a good resource & help for us in making decisions. He was great at communicating when & what he was... Read More going to do. He was clear & accurate in his bid. He was ON TIME every day & finished the project exactly when he said he would! He was neat, clean, respectful & friendly. I would use him again in a heartbeat! Best value, quality & speed of anyone else by far!

  I hired Derek and am so glad I did! He did an AMAZING job on renovating my bathroom and it was a really messed up bathroom! He had to... Read More replace everything down to the joists - I had leaks I didn't know about and a totally rotten floor. He did a beautiful job recreating the whole bathroom into a spa like experience - he is very professional, cleaned up after each day and really tried to keep my costs as close to my budget as possible. He helped me pick out paint, the shower glass doors - so his expertise in this was so valuable as I may have chosen things that wouldn't have looked as good. I am going to hire him again to replace my kitchen counters, backsplash and sink. He is the absolute BEST and was a pleasure to work with on a very challenging project.

  Timeless Finishes remodeled my kitchen with beautiful cabinets and granite counter-tops. It looked so nice I had to go out and buy all new appliances! I liked it so much... Read More that I am having them replace more cabinets and counter-tops and even adding cabinets to the dining area. Derek the owner is very hands on and easy to work with and goes out of his way to make sure you understand each step of the process and any costs vs. savings for changing or upgrading any part. Derek also goes out of his way to make himself available via phone, texts, and emails. He has a good eye and gives good advice too. This was my first remodel of anything and I am glad I used Timeless Finishes.

  3rd time using Derek for a big remodel. This time he helped make a handicapable bathroom for my mom who is in declining health. He made sure that every safety... Read More feature was utilized with all ADA requirements and still made it gorgeous. Every little detail to her bathroom and new master suite was perfect up to the lights outlets so she could see at night. He would even take the time to include her in the decisions even though it would take a very long time for her to understand. Especially with her dementia he made sure that she was comfortable and felt that this was all her decisions. The bathroom is perfect, the added closet and updated window openings to make it to code for a bedroom are exactly how we wanted and the work is amazing. Just waiting for my next project to hire him. An honest, hardworking contractor with great craftsmanship is hard to find

  I found Timeless Finishes on Yelp. Called left a message. The owner, Derek called back and we spoke a bit about what I was looking for in a... Read More my kitchen remodel. Derek asked the right follow-up questions about budget, finishes and counter tops. In my particular situation, I am planning on living with my new kitchen for several years and then my plan is to rent my property. So I was concerned about cost, durability and of course I wanted a new look for my 1964 kitchen. At the conclusion of our on-site meeting I hired Timeless Finishes. What I knew about the company was they are NOT the contractor referral services that you see advertised in the Newspaper or junk mail. I called them too, don't waste your time, unless you want to be visited by a smooth talking commission salesperson. You hire Derek, he is your only point of contact. He does a quality job and stands behind his work. Derek is clear about what will be extra and what is included. He works along with you to make sure you are happy with the finished product. His on-site advise is based on years of experience and he know what material work and how best to spend your budget.

In summary, I will recommend Derek to my friends and family.
