I have seen Doc's Restoration recommended in other threads. We talked with them about some work in our home and were pleased with their presentation but finally chose to be our own general contractor.

I have seen ads for Robertos new location, they have moved by the Street Rod store & Little Bits. Rafael's is a new place I do believe at Robertos old location.

We are having this exact scope of work done. We have entered a contract, but the work hasn't been done yet, so I am hesitant to advertise for them yet. If you want more info for them to add another quote (assuming you get quotes from others) feel free to message me.

Suggest Wood Kitchen and Bath, "Wood Kitchen and Bath, LLC provides kitchen remodeling, bathroom remodeling, home remodeling, custom flooring, custom kitchen cabinets, granite countertops. porcelain tile, quartz countertops, and vinyl flooring to residents in The Villages, Citrus Hills, Black Diamond, Inverness, Hernando, and Lecanto in Citrus County, Sumter County, and Marion County." We did a complete remodel of our kitchen 3 years ago and Todd's was professional and managed the entire project. They provided options that we wanted and the more local contractors tried to redirect our needs to what they wanted to sell. https://www.woodkitchenandbath.com/. We also replaced all our appliances through Aggressive Appliances, Luxury & Household Appliances for Sale in Orlando and Central Florida | Aggressive Appliances. It's amazing what you can find when you get outside The Villages, both in price and quality.

Try Bader Construction. Jim has just completed about $750k on three projects on Isleworth Circle. He is very knowledgeable, gets quick inspections, well versed in the ARC process, good subs, and is on site several times a day. Google Bader Construction in Fruitland Park.

Default Recommend Doc’s

I used Doc’s for a renovation that sounds somewhat similar to what you are planning, I have been extremely pleased with the designer, planner, project managers, and all the workers on the project. Excellent in every respect.

Look up Guidry home improvement. I personally know his work and Donald was married to a family member of mine. He does great work and has pictures of past jobs online. He did repairs for my brother in law after one of the hurricanes in Louisiana prior to moving his business to Florida. Check him out

We used Doc’s Restoration and were completely happy. There was a “manager” assigned to our kitchen redo. We were on a vacation on the west coast while the project was being done. The manger called us and said he wasn’t happy with one part of the work and would have it redone. Job finished on time and very happy with the job done.

If you’re looking at custom,Marco’s Atunes, American Dream Kitchens. Highly recommended and extremely reputable. Sometimes custom vs premade are not that much different in price. He can do everything you mentioned. He has the resources. 30 yrs in business. 352-702-7866.

Robertos is good though I had issues with customer service and a promise he made. He did our LVP.

Also, check Decorating in the Villages on FB. Lots on Marcos. Well worth a conversation with them.

I live in Deluna too. Great location! Never moving again.
