SOME OF OUR REVIEWS

“High quality in all phases of work including cabinetry, appliance installation, electrical, plumbing and painting for significant kitchen and utility room remodel. One of the very best remodel contractors in our experience. Excellent communications, everyone was courteous and careful with daily clean-up of the job site.”

Lynn Markel

“They did a great job, very professional, and I can trust them! They did our French doors and some other work. Will call them again for sure. The owner, Rick, is great, and there is always good communication from them.”

Sarah Waterman

“Manning did an incredible job with my bathroom tile. I highly recommend them and will absolutely be hiring them for future remodeling projects.”

Jonathan Flower

“Rick came to my house to give me a bid to extend my patio. I wish I had the opportunity to have him do the work. His quote was fair and I could tell from his references that he does quality work. I ended up selling the house before adding on to the patio so I will be sure to call Manning Remodeling + Construction if I need anything remodeled in the future.”

Bill Tennyson

“Rick and crew were the best people we worked with in the entire 6-month remodel effort. I just can't say enough good things about this crew! They were very agile and easily accommodated the few changes we requested. They expect 100% perfection from their work, and I can't say that I can find fault in anything they did.”

Angela

“Partial master bathroom renovation. I can't say enough good things about this company. I met initially with the owner, Rick Manning. He drew everything up and gave me a quote. I had 2 other quotes that were lower but what I liked about this group is they don't use subs. Everyone from tile guy to plumber to sheetrock are all employees, and they all work together on every job. The other thing that really said a lot to me is that they have never had to advertise, all referrals from previous customers … that's how my dad and grandfather ran their business, and it says a lot about Rick and his crew. Drew the tile guy is a rock star! I have never seen this quality of work by anyone ever. Amazing job!!! Can't wait for the next project!”

Marlene

“Remodeled an unusable master bath, new commodes in two other bathrooms, fixed loose kitchen floor tiles, and taped/bedded/painted the laundry room. We are extremely pleased with the bathroom remodel and other items they did. This project has hung over our heads for years, and we finally got it accomplished. Rick and his crew were friendly, clean, efficient, accommodating, and very knowledgeable. We were kept informed during the process, and Jana in the office was also friendly and efficient with the estimates for the additional items I kept adding to the initial work order. We will definitely use them again for remodeling. The bathroom looks great!!”

Susan

“Total master bathroom renovation project. Excellent quality workmanship. Rick was very responsive when there were concerns and very flexible with small changes. Tim, Drew, and the rest of the crew were very personable and professional. They genuinely want to ensure that you're happy with your project. I highly recommend this company.”

Rochelle

“Full master bath remodel. Prompt and effective communication. No surprises, exceptional attention to the details. Will use in the future for other big-ticket projects. Awesome experience.”

Diana

“Everything was great. They were punctual and professional and always made sure we were happy with each step along the way. The bathroom is beautiful and updated now.”

Bobbi O.

“This was a complete end-to-end rip out, tear down, and redo the entire bathroom from floor to walls and ceiling. Rick and his crew displayed professionalism from the start of the project until they finished this week. The project took about 6 weeks to complete, which was within the provided expectations. We are very happy with every step of the process and the quality of workmanship as well as every member of the work crew that came in and out during each phase of the project. Thank you Rick for all of your hard work, and we will for sure be calling you again when we start our next project.”

Thomas

“We hired Rick Manning and his company to take over a remodeling project after we broke up with another remodeling company mid-way through the project. Basically, Rick had to come in and figure out from a picture and other people’s rough estimates exactly what we wanted. It was a disadvantage for him and his crew, but they executed and completed the job perfectly. The employees were all great at their craft, trained in all aspects of remodeling (so you don’t have to wait for the tile guy to show up because the tile guy is also the electrician, and so forth), polite, friendly, and ridiculously clean. They clean up after each day of work so we never had a night of dust or equipment lying around waiting for the workers the next day. Example: The guy who cut the tile in our garage and driveway vacuumed and then mopped our entire garage floor! How great is that? They always arrived on time, kept us informed on who was coming and what they were doing, and what was going to happen next. As with all remodeling projects, there were some challenges the crew faced, specifically with our new fireplace install, but no one ever complained. They solved the problem without hesitation. Again, these guys came into this job and had to deal with vendors they don't normally work with so I give them high praise for making it easy on us. There were a couple of design decisions we had to make of which we were clueless on the direction we needed to go and Rick and his guys offered their opinions. This was much appreciated and spot-on. I know this review is heavy on the praise and I sound like I’m gushing but we have done A LOT of remodeling over the years with several companies, and honestly, our experience with Manning Remodeling + Construction is far and away the best. Rick’s project manager Tim, before he closed out our project, asked if everything was perfect. I said nothing is ever perfect but it looks darn close to perfect to me. Well, I’ve lived with the results for a couple of days now, and I can’t find a thing wrong. The tile lines are perfectly lined up, the paint is perfectly applied, etc. So, I have to say they did a perfect job!”

Taryn

“First and foremost, Rick Manning called me back within 10 minutes after I left a message on his phone and he set an appointment the following day to come by and look at what needed to be done. He had the quote for the work back to me in 2 business days. Once I made my decision to go with Rick, his EMPLOYEES (not subcontractors) were here within 2 days working on the house. This was an extensive repair job on the eaves and siding, and they worked very diligently to complete everything in a timely manner. They always came when they said they would, and they did a fantastic job. The best part is when Rick contacts you during the job, his question to you is, Is everything perfect? If it is not, he will get it fixed to your satisfaction. Rick has his own employees who are covered by workers’ comp, and they are very nice and very respectful at all times. They do great work. The only 2 subcontractors Rick used were the painter, Alfredo, and the roof repair guys. Alfredo was the most thorough painter I have ever witnessed. Fantastic job. The roof guys made the repair on my roof, and it has rained 3 times since then with no water coming through where it was previously coming through. Overall, fantastic job. I have already talked to Rick about doing more work on the house and I won't even call for a price comparison. Rick and his crews are fantastic, and I will not use anyone else for my home repair and renovation work. The best aspect of working with Rick Manning is that he does what he says he is going to do, and he wants you to be 100% satisfied with his work. It is a pleasure working with Rick and look forward to the next project.”

Tim

“Manning Remodeling + Construction has done 2 projects on my house in the last 6 weeks. Both have been done extremely well. The best thing about Rick is almost all of his work is done by employees, and he uses subcontractors only when he has to. His guys show up on time, are extremely courteous and professional, and do very good work. Best of all, if it is not right, Rick makes sure it is fixed until you are satisfied, and I don’t mean in a month, I mean right now. He has stayed in constant touch with me throughout each project asking me if I was satisfied. His guys get things done and don’t mess around. Rick is a no-nonsense, straight shooter who will tell you the way it is, not necessarily what you want or need to hear to feel good.”

Tim

“Rick, thank you for our beautiful kitchen. Your employees were so nice and efficient and professional. Everyone’s work was superb! Thank you also for addressing the few issues that came up so promptly. Best wishes, Laura & Dan.”

Laura & Dan

“Rick, Thanks again for the great job you all did. Give our thanks to Tim, Drew, Michael, and Pedro. We’ll definitely call on you all again.”

Gay & Robert

“Rick, everything looks beautiful! Your team members were professionals throughout, and it was a pleasure working with them. I was amazed at how clean they left the property every evening! This was a step above expectation.”

Debbie

“Rick, as always the work was done perfectly. Tim and Michael were both efficient, professional, and kind, and they cleaned up the area when they left. As always, above and beyond what any other company would do. Thank you.”

Kathy

“We are lucky. We had hired Rick on a recommendation of a friend to paint the interior of a house we had to sell. That house was 40 years old and looked it. I swear, I am so glad disco is dead. After Rick and his crew did such an amazing job painting, we had five offers within days and sold the house within three weeks. Fast forward to what this job is about. We moved into our new home, and while the previous owners had lived in it for 12 years and had made a few upgrades, the house needs to enter the 21st century. Our first order of business was to protect the repaired foundation. We called Rick and he came over. We told him ALL the jobs we wanted to work on, and he worked up a COMPLETE estimate for each. First was the exterior. Before we could add gutters, we had to repaint the outside. God, I think the previous owners had it powder blue. I likely gagged when I saw bits of that color all over the place. Anyway, after we made the decision to start transforming our home, Rick told us a crew would be out the next day! Yeah, that was the sound of my jaw hitting the ground, folks. We were unprepared but quickly jumped at the awesome timing. The team came out and power-washed the house on Thursday. We had looked online and chose a quality paint color. Rick told my husband to take a screenshot of the color, TEXT it to him, and then Rick or his crew bought the paint. The team returned the next day and by the time we returned home from our jobs, THE WORK WAS DONE. Paint AND gutters. I kid you not. Everything was painted, gutters matched the paint so well that I only knew they were a tiny bit off the color because the paint we chose doesn’t come in the gutter selection. On Saturday, the crew came back and did minor touch-ups. Rick came by on SUNDAY to see the work himself. I was busy working or I would have tackle-hugged him to the ground. He was lucky to get away with only a handshake from my husband. So, yeah. I kinda love Rick and his gang. I’ve dealt with NIGHTMARE contractors. People who should not be permitted licenses. People who should be in jail for shoddy workmanship and rip-off prices. We’ll be working with Rick Manning and his superhero team until this 1985 ranch house is mistaken for something out of Star Trek. The guy is awesome. We’re excited to get to the next project, and I’ll be sure to post here each time so you all know how it goes.”

Jon & Tricia

“Oh my gosh, what a wonderful job they’ve done. You know I always give you feedback good or bad. This team was wonderful, from their detail to their clean up and wanting to be sure everything works properly and looked good. I’m extremely pleased. You are my man!”

Judy

“Rick and his team started by promptly scheduling a visit to provide us with a quote. He was flexible in revising his quote when we were comparing companies and worked with us when we had design idea changes. His team was professional, friendly, and punctual. He was very receptive to feedback during the project and took care of changes. The job took longer than we thought to complete mostly due to waiting on a glass order. We are pleased with this experience and the final product. We will call Rick and his team for future projects we may have.”

Josh

“Please tell your guys thank you. They were super professional. Not often you have such thoughtful workers in your home.”

Melisa

“Great responsive owner. Came out and took notes then submitted an estimate. Work was completed on time and satisfactorily. I would definitely use again.”

John

“Absolutely blown away by the craftsmanship and attention to detail… The tile and trim are just awesome, more than I even imagined! …very high-end. Thank you!!!!!”

Melvyn

“Wow, Rick! What a spectacular job. Our kitchen was so dark and claustrophobic that we were desperate to get it changed, but our experiences with previous contractors had us scared. From the time we met you, we began to relax. Your explanations about the concerns we had were so clear that we immediately felt we had the right contractor this time. And when your teams began work in our house, we were thrilled to watch as they transformed our space into the bright open kitchen we had dreamed of. Everyone was professional, clean, and friendly – and we felt absolute confidence throughout the entire process. Plus, everyone was willing and able to explain the big and little changes that were taking place. Every day the teams cleaned before they left, and each day we saw major advances in our dream remodel. The final product is beyond our expectations. We can’t thank you enough. And we now feel that when we want to do any future projects, as long as we have you doing the project, we can proceed without worries. Thank you and please express our sincere gratitude to all of your people. Everyone was a real pleasure to work with – and we can’t stop grinning about the results!”

Salah and Lynn

“We had a bad experience with a prior contractor who worked on our master bathroom and other areas in our house. The experience was so bad that it took us 6 years before we decided to remodel our bathroom. We found Manning Remodeling + Construction on Angie’s list and decided to call him for an estimate. His business address is in the same city we live in, which we thought was very convenient. Rick was early for the appointment and listened to what we wanted to do with the bathroom. He was very nice and professional and offered suggestions but never tried to talk us out of tiling the bathroom walls. Rick sent us an estimate which we thought was fair, and we accepted his offer in December. We purchased the tile, vanities, and faucets (separate from the estimate) prior to the start of the remodeling. Because of the holidays, work didn’t start until January 7th. The whole remodeling took a little over 2 weeks. Rick and his associates were great. The crew showed up for work early in the morning and did not leave until early evening. They even worked a whole weekend so they could finish the tile work. What we really liked was that everyone was very friendly, respected our property, cleaned up every day before they left, and worked around a very nosy cat who thought he was part of the crew. Rick came by every day to check on the progress of the bathroom, and if we had any problems or changes, we could talk to him at that time. We thought this was great because our last contractor never came by to look at the mess his crew created - even when we called him. Our bathroom is finished and it turned out better than we expected. As with any project, there were a few minor problems after the bathroom was finished. Rick made sure that the problems were corrected to our satisfaction. We plan to remodel our kitchen in the near future and plan to call Rick Manning back to do the job.”

Patricia

“Having used other contractors in the Plano area before–most never get repeat business from me [but] Rick and his team not only did a great job but let me know they appreciated my business. All of Rick’s crew go above and beyond to provide excellent service. Rick is conscientious and very easy to work with which helps when money and time are at a premium. I’m looking forward to working with Rick on future projects.”

Marlena

“The shower is awesome! Thank you so much for your speedy professionalism.”

Niecey

“Rick, it is beyond perfect! I’m thrilled with the way the patio area looks. A neighbor was here when I got home, and she needs some exterior trim and painting done. I showed her what you did and said I trusted you like a brother! Your crew was great too. Very professional and courteous.”

Marsha

“We had the unfortunate experience of having a poorly installed shower with a leaky drain which ended up causing water damage to the carpet, wood floor, and Sheetrock in the adjacent rooms. Rick not only removed the old shower, fixed the plumbing issue, and installed a new shower, but he also took care of the water-damaged walls making our house whole again. While he was there, Rick and his crew also installed some new lighting in the master bathroom which we love. Rick was responsive, professional, and easy to work with. He was also easily available by alternate communication (text etc.) which was extremely helpful since I’m not always available by phone. Thanks again, Rick!”

Robert

“Rick was an utmost professional as were his associates. The crew was always punctual (both arriving and completing projects), which was a pleasant change from my previous contractor. He was very accommodating regarding scheduling around my deliveries and other work. They were great about addressing the inevitable surprises that come with remodeling. When I had complaints, he was sincere in making things right. I would say they went above and beyond. There were times that we had differing opinions on aspects, but Rick’s ability to communicate and negotiate really made the process go as smoothly as possible. I truly appreciate the thorough communication and realistic expectations he set. He seems to be a truly honorable and fair man, which seems to not be so easily found in this business. While I had cheaper bids, he was certainly the most trustworthy. It was a joy to do business with Rick. I would not hesitate to do so again.”

Melissa

“They did excellent work and had great customer service. They did such a good job that I referred them to my friends.”

Paula

“Rick and his staff are great! They arrived on time and completed all the work in a timely manner. Glad to know they do larger projects as well. I’ll use them again in the future.”

Julie

“Rick, we appreciate all of the work that your guys did. They were prompt and easy to work with. Much success to you! See you again soon!”

Rene & Bob

“We are very pleased with the results and how you handled the process. We have finally found the kind of contractor we’ve been looking for. You will be the first we call for our future projects!”

Shannon

"Rick came out to do a quote for me, and I was amazed by how knowledgeable and friendly he was. Also, he had a pay-as-you-go plan, no money upfront. That is extremely rare these days. He can do it because he stands behind his word. 5 stars!"

Adam Oliver

“We had an incredible experience working with Rick Manning and his team. We replaced most of the flooring in the downstairs portion of our home, plus changed a doorway from a dated column-banked entry to a cased opening. The work was completed ahead of schedule at a high quality. Even better, everything was QA/QC’d multiple times by multiple people, including the owner. Highly recommend working with them. Their pricing was very fair.”

Shannah Hayley

“We recently used Manning Remodeling + Construction for a custom built-in and fireplace makeover. Rick, Shane, and the team did high-quality work and were always responsive and helpful in answering our many questions as first-time homeowners. Would highly recommend!”
