Critical: Professionalism I would never use this business. Jeff stole a yooperlite from me and a UV light. When I asked for it back he got aggressive and blocked me.

Cornerstone Kitchens and Baths remodeled my bathroom in 2008 and my kitchen in 2009. Both of these jobs were a complete gut job and required new walls, floors and tons of labor. Jesus was very professional and gave me a very fair price and he also helped me to choose paint colors and floors and tile designs.

I am very pleased with Cornerstone Kitchens and Baths. Since 2008 when I bought my first home, Jesus has done quite a few projects around my house. Complete bathroom remodel including new tile floor, new tile tub surround, and plumbing repair. He has been back to do other small projects, and most recently tiled my whole basement after we had to rip up the carpet due to flood damage.

Cornerstone remodeled my kitchen and from start to finish it was a wonderful experience. Jesus has great ideas and was really awesome. I will use Cornerstone for my future projects and send many of my friends to his business.
