Beautiful showroom

After doing quite a bit of research, my wife and I found AP Advanced in Mandarin. We were really impressed with the showroom and the customer service we received as soon as we walked in. They are a complete , one stop shop remodeling company and we really liked that fact. Our construction team was very polite and such hard workers! We received communication from AP’ superintendent all through the job as to what we should expect next and the office checked in to see how we were feeling throughout the process. We wanted to open up our kitchen and make things more accessible for me as I’m disabled and in a wheel chair. I supplied pictures so you can see our beautiful new kitchen and what a great job they did for us! We’re so tickled and we would recommend them to others in a heartbeat.

We used AP Advanced to remodel our master bath. We were happy with the finished job and highly recommend them. Some highlights: We entered this process with a general footprint of what we wanted. The combination of Benny, their designers plus the showroom, helped us to make design / aesthetic choices that resulted in an elegant, functional new master bath. Simon and his crew did the work from demolition through final details. Simon has over 20 years of experience in remodeling. The workmanship is excellent, his tile guy is an “artist”, the rest of his crew are detail-oriented building professionals. They are good folk and we enjoyed having them work in our home. Throughout the process the crew took steps to protect our home from the unavoidable construction dust and dirt. This included a covered walking path from the garage door to the work-area and covering all furniture and surfaces in the master bedroom during demolition and early-stage (pre-tile) construction. They even sealed off the bathroom and took construction debris through the bathroom window to minimize dust in the master bedroom. We contracted on 3/31, construction started 6/1, and finished on 7/3. Simon’s crew was in our home for 7 days during this time, 6 days at the start - demo through cabinet installation plus a day to finish the details after the countertops were installed. Overall an efficient process. (Countertops require a measurement after cabinets are in place, and take 10-14 days to acquire, similar for shower glass) AP Advanced has back-office people to manage the purchasing and logistics to offer a turn-key service on a remodel job. When questions or issues arose, the were responsive. Overall—AP Advanced Construction is an excellent choice for a remodel.

The amount of time and money I had to put into my bathroom remodel to FIX all their work is inexcusable. I would love to attach pictures of how they left my bathroom as “finished” but I can’t figure out how to add them. They also removed insulation from my exterior wall and never replaced it before putting sheetrock up. Besides the work being subpar, I’d call multiple times with no return calls. Their communication is nonexistent and when you point out a mistake or miscommunication you are put off or completely ignored. When you point out, to two separate people, that building codes have not been met they do nothing. No apology, no “we’ll look into this and fix it”. Nothing.

Just the initial meeting so far, but I look forward to continuing our work with Taylor at AP Advanced Construction to complete our home remodeling project.

I am so happy. My new bathroom is just out of this world. It really is beautiful. The people involved were just terrific

Did a complete remodel of my condo kitchen, including taking down part of a wall, removing and replacing cabinets, new sink, new countertops and backsplash. Great communication, quick turnaround and professional installation (i work from home and they always considerate of that fact). I highly recommend.

Called and they were quick to come out and look at the project. Artur the Vice President came out and spent several hours at my house doing drawings and told me to contact him. He told me to text or call him and gave me a card, however whenever I called or texted nothing was returned. I called the showroom to make an appointment and multiple time I was told by the assistant that they would call me back. No one ever called back and after days I just gave up. I guess they are too busy to work with new customers.

I contacted Diana at AP for a price on cabinets. She asked me for measurements so I sent her a 3 dimension Cad of my kitchen and bathrooms. After a couple of weeks and promises to have me the information I requested, she never bothered to contact me at all. I called her back several times but I got the run around and empty promises. I will spend my money with a company that values customer service and follow up.

My wife and I have lived in our home for 22 years without much updating so we decided to unify our flooring from rug, tile. wood in various rooms to tile throughout except bedrooms (1800 sq.ft). Additionally, we wanted to remodel our fairly large kitchen including tearing down soffits, adding recessed lighting, new appliances, the aforementioned tile and new cabinets and quartz counters. For us this was a big expensive undertaking. We got 3 quotes with AP Advanced being the last quote and the most competitive. But at this price point we needed to feel comfortable and confident in our contractor as we’ve had prior bad experiences . From the beginning Arturo and Benny provided that comfort level. Artur help us select the right components. He was patient, honest, and accessible. No matter how many times we changed our mind in the selection process, Artur always made us feel comfortable. Benny and I had a saying--”It’s got to work right, it’s got to look right” and Benny stood behind that saying 100%. There are always bumps in the road in construction and a couple of times Benny would visit and I say “does that look right” He said, “no it’s got to be better” and he proved true to his word. Our finished remodeling project is everything we expected and more. Benny said several times to me “ We’re in this for the long haul, we want you to be family”. And that’s the way we felt. AP Advanced proved that to us many times . I would recommend them without exception for any job.

We selected AP Advance when we first started looking to remodel our master bathroom. It was a real turn key operation where you make all your selections there in the showroom. I enjoyed meeting all the skilled contstruction workers and especially Debra in the showroom. She fields all the calls and gets things done! Would use them again! The bathroom looks great!

David Krocket

A comfortable atmosphere and very knowledgeable salesman.

We are well pleased with our new open plan kitchen. Benny was more than helpful with suggestions and Eric kept workers in line..With the covid virus going on I admit i was a little nervous but AP Advanced kept things under control and safe as possible..We would recommend this company.

Finally have a bathroom vanity that looks beautiful. We were replacing a vanity and cabinet in our master bath that was the original from1987. The remake was everything we wanted.. The entire staff was helpful and saw to our needs, especially working with our budget. Pleasant and welcoming atmosphere as soon as you walk into the showroom. Many, many thanks to all of those involved with our project.

I recently had my kitchen and guest bathroom remodeled by AP Advanced Construction. Throughout the entire process their staff was a pleasure to work with. Artur and Debra at the showroom were very helpful in the design process. They were able to answer all questions I had and any changes I wanted were made with ease. Benny and Eric kept me informed about when installers would at my house and what they would be doing. They also provided some helpful suggestions, like replacing the track lighting with can lights. The new lighting looks great and makes the kitchen much brighter. All of their installers were professional and I am very happy with the quality of their work. My new kitchen and bathroom look just like I pictured them after leaving the showroom. I've received many compliments from friends and family on how it looks. Thanks AP!

After living in our house unchanged for approximately 20 years combined with a disastrous water leak that occurred in our kitchen and laundry room areas, Becky and I decided it was time to remodel the entire first floor of our home. Our plans were to address the popcorn ceiling, redo the flooring, paint throughout, and completely update the kitchen and bathroom areas. We then interviewed a select group of local firms and decided upon A P Advanced Construction. This was primarily because of their unique ability to put us at ease and to identify our needs while also watching our budget. We immediately liked both Benny and Artur after we began discussing our plans. They were most helpful in guiding us along to determine exactly what we wanted and by giving us various options as to what we could update throughout the house. Debra, one of their primary contacts behind the scene, was also very helpful and kept us informed via telephone throughout the entire initial negotiation process. Once we had decided upon what we wanted to have done, the day of demolition and reconstruction finally arrived. We were excited and anxious to get started. AP’s superintendent named Eric led the team performing the actual work. He was informative and responsive throughout the process and led the remodeling like only a true expert can do. A hulk of a man named Simon led the day to day on site remodeling. He and his talented crew (Leo, Albert, Paul, and George) were possibly the best part of the process in that they are the ones that made our dream a reality. They performed their duties admirably and the final product is truly a beauty to behold! They also arrived each on time each day, cleaned up daily, and made sure everything was exactly as we wanted before they departed for the day. Needless to say, we are extremely happy with our “new” home! Because we did not move out and stayed in our home throughout the construction process, we were unable to truly appreciate the transformation until we traveled to our property in Tennessee for a short break and returned to Jacksonville. It was like we were in a different house! Let me finish by simply stating that A P Advanced Construction worked with us throughout the entire process to ensure our expectations were fully met. Yes, there were a few minor bumps along the journey. What you must analyze and base your opinion upon is how does your contractor respond to those issues and are you happy with the end result. In that regard, A P Advance shines like a star! In short, it was a great experience and a job well done!

They just finished my master bathroom remodel and it came out great! They were very accommodating and if I pointed anything out or made changes they took care of it quickly. Artur was always making sure I was happy with the whole process. Definitely plan to have them come do my guest bath and kitchen down the road.

My wife recently underwent hip replacement surgery which rendered the jacuzzi in our bathroom obsolete and inaccessible. The Christmas holidays were approaching with expected house guests. It was therefore critical that the bathroom remodeling be completed within a scheduled timeframe. AP Advanced Construction representative met with us, presented a very creative remodeling plan at a very reasonable price and promised project completion consistent with our needs. AP's performance was outstanding. They completed the project as promised. Our "new" bathroom was available in time for our visitors, adding immeasurably to the quality of our holidays. All of AP's workers were competent, professional and personable. We were very impressed that they took great pains to respect our home and our privacy. They invariably cleaned up their work areas at the end of each workday. In short, we were very pleased with every aspect of this project as performed by AP Advanced Construction and would recommend them without hesitation.

If you are thinking of using this company DON’T! We had a remodel on a very small bathroom. Below is a list of some of the things that went wrong: 1. Cabinets were installed off-center with two inches of cement showing between the wood floor and the cabinets. 2. When cabinets were moved there were so many gaping holes in the back that they put in a false back. Some of the cement was still showing. It was finally fixed. 3. Dry wall and painting were a mess and had to be redone. 4. When the counter top came it was cut for rectangular sinks but our contract was for oval sinks. I had to call to see what sinks were ordered. They ordered rectangular so we just went with that. 5. When the sinks were connected both sides leaked! 6. When the shower glass was scheduled to arrive they didn’t come. I got a text that they “lost the glass.” It has not been ordered. I could go on but I think you get the idea. They attempted to repair some of the problems but after two months of this I have new cabinets full of extra holes, new scatches on my wood floors, and my nerves are shot!

I’m very pleased with the outcome of my remodel. They took out the old garden tub and made my shower bigger and more open with beautiful frameless glass. New flooring, vanities etc. The guys were very polite and professional. Cleaned up every day after work. Superintendent kept me up to date and I felt like I didn’t have to worry about anything. I would certainly recommend them to my friends!

Zachary McKee

DO NOT USE!!! I hired them do redo my kitchen and this company was very hard to deal with. They were very unprofessional, they miss measured and ordered the wrong cabinets, and never gave updates of when people were coming to do work. They were always quick to ask for a check but horrible at responding to your questions. The work done was below par and when I asked to have my backsplash redone they refused and said "Well you aren't going to sit there and stare at it are you" and "That will be hard to notice once you put stuff on the counters." There are cheaper and better companies.

Love their design center, looking forward for our in-home estimate.

My husband and I had just purchased a new home with the intent of converting two smaller secondary bedrooms into one large bedroom, expanding the bathroom, replacing the tub/shower with a roll in shower, changing the vanity to an ADA compliant sink, swapping out the wall to wall carpet for laminate flooring and widening the doorways. The end result was to be a luxurious wheelchair friendly suite for my mother. We contacted multiple contractors, including AP Advanced Construction, to get cost estimates and timelines. Artur was the only one out of all the companies to provide us with an immediate estimate for the job. Not only was the price in the ballpark of what I was thinking, but he also said they could start the following week. This was a major plus because we could not move into our beautiful new home until the area was completed for my mother who is a paraplegic. The project got underway on time and finished within the quoted time period. Artur and his team were easy to work with, professional, and always available to answer any questions we had. I would have no reservations about recommending AP Advanced Construction to anyone. We will be calling on them again in the future to re-do our master bath and kitchen!
