New Lattitudes Construction

Howard came out to get me an estimate, and was super fast to respond in the beginning, but then nothing :( he sent an email with an estimate but it wasn't itemized the way he said it would be, and then when I try to contact him there's no response. My guess is he just doesn't want to do this job but I wish he would have just told me that instead of leaving me in the dark. I have a remodel I really want done and I was hoping on this company.

Howard is a true professional. He completed a fairly extensive remodel and addition for us nearly a year ago. We added two master bedrooms and did an extensive remodel of our existing kitchen and bathroom. Howard and his team completed the work in the exact time frame quoted. He was great in his communication and was very thorough in our weekly walk throughs. Since completion of the project, we have had a few loose ends that have needed his attention. Howard was great about following up and addressing any open items. I would highly recommend Howard for any remodel or additions.

Howard was wonderful to work with! He and his crew were punctual, polite and perfect for the job! I couldn't have wished for a better company to handle my remodel! 3 months later I am still extremely happy with the exceptional job they did! I purchased a tear down worthy vacation home and they turned it in to a 5 star vacation home!

We recently did a major room addition, and couldn't be happier with New Lattitudes. We interviewed several contractors, and concluded that their pricing was very fair. What we liked most was the ease of working with them. Everyone is very professional and well-versed in the field.

The quality of work was outstanding and every inspection passed with flying colors. His team is very professional and helpful in answering any questions or concerns that we had through the process.

We appreciated the fact that New Lattitudes treats you like family, and is honest and up front. I highly recommend New Lattitudes to anyone who is working for any project big or small. Make sure to tell them Ashley sent you!

New Lattitudes is currently adding a new bedroom, bathroom and kitchen addition to our home. Howard and his team have been courteous, efficient, and timely. We received a work schedule at contract signing and five weeks into our project, we figure they are two weeks ahead. Who does this?! They work hard and long every day and then leave the work area amazingly clean. We are so pleased with how beautiful our house is becoming. We count ourselves very lucky to have found them.

I have lived at my house for a little over three years now. Since the time I first saw it I've wanted to build a detached garage in the back yard so I can work on my projects and not use the main garage for these activities. I came across Howard, the owner of New Latitudes, from a family member. He seemed like a nice guy always punctual and answered my phone calls. What he said was special about his company was that he was a general contractor, architect and structural engineer all under one roof. That was exactly what I needed. After talking with him several times the only services I needed from him were a city approved set of plans as I was going to build myself. Six months after signing a contract I still had nothing. After putting some pressure on him he finally admitted his engineer had left. So long story short he could not deliver what he had promised. I do not appreciate the lack of communication. What a waste of time. Took my business else where.

This is what happens when Howard gets a bad review:

""Hi Joe. I just saw your Yelp review and think it was harsh and exaggerated as we did a lot more than ""nothing"" including the battle with the City Planner (who ultimately didn't even do the plan review). Unfortunately it did not work out exactly as either of us expected. I tried to do the right thing by you by nullifying the contract and providing everything we had done to that point for free. Anyway, it is what it is. Best of luck to you.""

I have my opinions and he has his. Communication is very important between client and contractor. Howard has a hard time relaying important information to the homeowner or me in this case. Make sure to get other bids before choosing New Latitudes.

Very happy with New Lattitudes! I initially contacted Rhonda to give me an estimate for a media center/ built in bookshelf unit with a mounted TV and fake fireplace. She came out and shared her ideas, brought her cabinet guy. Everything was fine until life changed a bit. I sat on the project for about half a year. When I called Rhonda back out it was as if no time had passed, they just picked right back up and started the project. Came out very nice and we are super happy with the cost/ work/ outcome. I highly recommend them!

It took us about 2 years of interviewing contractors until we finally found someone who seemed very stable and trustworthy. Since we decided to invest a huge sum of money by adding on nearly 800 sq feet to our home, it was important to find someone who we could trust. After meeting with Howard (who was always on time), we knew he was the right contractor for the job.

Pricing was reasonable, and quality of work is outstanding. He created a draw schedule in such a way, where there was no way we would be out money should something occur. His crew was very professional and customer focused. Howard went above and beyond numerous times.

While this was a 12 week project, Howard's team had the addition completed in 9 weeks. Other contractors who had bid on the job estimated closer to 6 months.

The build quality is amazing, and the best part is the addition doesn't look like an addition; it flows so well, that it looks like original construction from when the house was built.

Howard's attention to detail, reasonable pricing, excellent customer service, and overall pride of craftsmanship earns him and his team a 5-star rating.

The owner came by and gave me a bid on my bathroom. Although it didnt work out (timing issues) he was the nicest and courteous contractor to come to my house. Cant say enough great things about them.

Can't say enough about Howard and his crew. They've done some small jobs for me in the past and have always been great, so I hired them for a major remodel/room addition. I had a 1 month window to get everything done. They were always on time and worked long hours to get the job done by my tight deadline. Howard is a great communicator and does what he says he'll do. Even down to some of the most minor details that I mentioned during walkthroughs early in the job (I figured I would need to remind him), I was always surprised when they were handled just like I asked. Howard is fair, honest, and reliable; qualities that are often hard to find in this industry. I would highly recommend New Lattitudes to anyone looking to get the job done right, fast, big or small!
