"Mark did a fabulous job of remodeling our bathroom. We knew we wanted him to do the remodel when we met him and his wife, Beth...., primarily because he does the electrical and plumbing himself instead of contracting that out. Our home is older ...so he spent a good amount of time leveling floors and walls so the tiles would be perfect and indeed they were. He was a joy to work with, always cleaned up the space before he left for the day, and we felt confident with him working here even when we had to go out. We would not hesitate to recommend him to anyone wanting quality remodeling. We couldn't be happier with our new, beautiful bathroom!"
Margaret Li Seeley
"Mark was highly recommended by many people in our neighborhood and has many years of experience. He added a beautiful tile shower ...his craftsmanship is superb and the job site was spotless. Mark was also very sensitive to social distancing during this unique time and made us feel safe and confident as he worked in our house."
Robin Jackson
"Our experience with Mark at DeBow Home Remodeling was exceptional and my husband and I couldn't have envisioned a better result for our 5x7 bathroom. Mark's meticulousness and expertise in remodeling our bathroom made the project seamless and exceeded any expectation we had. He was extremely accommodating and ensured that even our pets were happy during the process! We strongly recommend DeBow Home Remodeling for any home improvements and we will definitely use him again!"
Derek DuVal
"Mark transformed an outdated bathroom into a work of art. It required creativity because of our tile choices, and Mark applied a laser-focused attention to detail to both the artistic and practical (plumbing, painting, light electrical, etc) aspects of the project. We love it!"
Susan Cecala
"Mark is a very talented tradesman- plumber, electrician, installer of tile and fixtures, etc. He is professional, responsible, amiable and reasonable. We will definitely use him again!"

"We were very happy with the work Mark did for our bathroom renovation. He was careful, prompt, and considerate, and his work was of very high quality. We also appreciated his cheerful disposition and how he always wanted to understand our exact ideas to make sure he implemented them properly. This is the second project he has done for us, and we will call him again whenever we need other home-remodeling."
Susan McGinnis
"Beth and Mark transformed our vintage 1959 kitchen into a bright and open contemporary space that brings much joy as the center of our house. I appreciate Mark's ability to see potential pitfalls and to come up with solutions for challenges like uneven subflooring, and both he and Beth have a very good eye for design and color as well. The project proceeded reliably and at a reasonable cost, and we enjoy the results every day!"
Clay Ford
"We used DeBow Home Remodeling to renovate a bathroom and were very happy with the results. Mark DeBow is very friendly, trustworthy and skilled. He didn't just renovate the bathroom but fixed things we didn't even know were broken. He was also very reliable. He always started when he said he would, and stayed in constant contact with us throughout the project. Can't recommend this company enough. To top it off, the final price came out much less than what we had been quoted by a similar remodeling company in town." https://www.google.com/maps/contrib/113162723258704847503/reviews

I can't say enough great things about Mark DeBow! He treats small and large jobs the same: he always gives 100%, which means extraordinary attention, consideration, integrity, quality, knowledge, skills and abilities for a fair and reasonable price. I feel like I can trust him and rely on him. I have been privileged to work with Mark since 2014. We're already talking about the next project!

"DeBow Home Remodeling has helped us with several projects now. Mark completed a beautiful bathroom renovation, in addition he also created an entryway bench and installed recessed lighting. He also helped us "baby proof" our split-level home! His attention to detail is amazing! We are very happy with each of these projects that he has done in our home."
Lisa & Jim Veale
"Mark has done two projects for us - finishing a family-room in our basement and building a new deck. His attention to detail and the quality of his work are excellent! Highly recommend DeBow for any home remodeling project."
Peter Dreyer
"Mark DeBow is the home remodeler you are looking for. It was a pleasure working with him." (Two bathrooms and a kitchen).
Diane & John Lahue
"Mark is a handyman MacGyver! Over the years, no matter what task we threw at him he figured it out. He takes great pride in his work and is extremely detail oriented. We love working with Mark and consider him a friend. He’s cheerful, fair, and very talented. He totally remodeled our kitchen."
Adela Su Karoliussen:
"Mark treated our work relationship like he treats all of his relationships, friendship or business; with honesty, respect, consideration and communication. I want quality work with quality products, great customer service and I expect to pay a fair price. When it came time to replace and expand our deck, of course I hired Mark again. I'm an architect by education at UVA so I knew what I wanted and Mark also had some great suggestions. "
Ron & Shannon Wilcox
"We have been working with Mark for several years now, on projects both large and small in our older, historic home. What initially impressed us about Mark was his intuitive understanding of how best to address complex restoration and maintenance projects. If there is something he is not capable of doing inside or outside of a home we have not found what that thing is. But perhaps more important than his technical capability is the trust he engenders. He is a comfortable presence in your home and a trusted advisor. Our kids love it when he shows up because he invariably ends up teaching them, and often us as well, things about construction while he is working. We feel fortunate to have worked with Mark DeBow."
JeAnne Frey, C/LMT
"Four Fabulous Things: I recently hired Mark for another project, this time to open a wall..
1) He gave me a target date for doing the work earlier than I anticipated.
2) He ended up getting the job done in less time than he'd quoted
2a) He worked on days that minimized disturbance
3) It came in on the lower end of the range he estimated.
4) Not only did his idea for finishing look far, far better than my idea of simple drywall, two of my clients (who had unflattering things to say about the interior paint job done by someone else) positively raved about how fabulous the opening looks.
Above and beyond, and not just in my opinion! Thanks Mark and Andy!"
