Project Description

Coleman Residence, Olympia, WA
Walk-In Tile Shower

Transformed by selecting the right colors, lighting, fixtures, vanity, tile and wainscoting, this bathroom now boasts fabulous style and function.

Working closely with the home owner, the desired flow of the bathroom space was considered, along with how it was to be used all the while maintaining the feel, style and decor of the rest of the home.

“We were fortunate to find First Finishers because we are doing a rehab on a home that was built in 1927 and needed a lot of work. Flooring, creating a walk-in closet, bathroom remodel and a security gate placement have all been done to our satisfaction . . . First Finishers is the company that can meet your needs.”
~ Pam Coleman | Olympia, WA”

First Finishers demolished and removed the dated tub / shower combination and replaced it with a roomy walk-in shower with tile shower bench featuring 4″ x 12″ tile with pencil trim. Floor to ceiling glass shower doors were installed to create the illusion of a roomier and more spacious bathroom.

The new bathroom features a vanity by Bellmont Cabinet Company where towels can be rolled and stored for easy access. The tile shower set-up features a hand-held and regular shower head for the ultimate home-spa experience.

We had a great experience working with Kai and the First Finishers team for a bathroom remodel and dry wall repair. Kai was incredibly responsive and we appreciated his patience when having to deal with our home owners insurance contact person. We would absolutely work with First Finishers for any future remodels on our home.read more

I cannot say enough good things about this company. Kai was professional, friendly, extremely knowledgeable, and responsive and informative every step of the way in the repair of a leaking toilet upstairs that leaked through the downstairs ceiling.Four different sets of sub contractors worked on our house, and without a single exception, they were on time, did terrific work in the time frames they provided, left our home immaculately clean, and like Kai, were friendly, professional, and explained exactly what they were doing.Every person I dealt with from First Finishers was clearly committed to doing whatever was needed to provide outstanding work and customer service. I can and will recommend this company without reservation.read more

Not all heroes show up in capes and riding white horses. Some of them wear baseball hats and drive work vans. I was in dire need of saving from my late '80s monstrosity of the kitchen. It was bad. The previous owner fancied himself a handyman, so it was so much worse than being just a dated kitchen. I must have seen about five different contractors for estimates, and ultimately went with First Finishers based on their reviews and my gut feeling (which totally could have been the previous nights dinner, but that's neither here nor there). I told Kai what I wanted to do and how much I wanted to spend. Thankfully, he did not laugh in my face and came back with an estimate that was very close to my budget. He worked very closely with The Showroom (who I went to for my cabinets, floors and countertops) and kept me informed every step of the way. The whole process took about a month and the crew stayed either ahead or on schedule with every aspect of the renovation. I know kitchen remodels are supposed to be a nightmare, but with this crew, the whole experience was downright pleasant! Everyone was so cool to work with, even the subcontractors. I'm not lying when I say I actually enjoyed having them in my house and was a little sad when the project was complete. My new kitchen is absolutely gorgeous. It's literally like I am in a brand new house and I am in love with what they did. I almost hesitate to write a glowing review because I want them to be available for any upcoming projects that I might have! Who am I though, to deny anyone else a First Finisher experience? If you are looking for someone to handle your home renovations, look no further. Kai and his crew are amazing and will absolutely give you your dream house. 100% recommend.read more

We cannot say enough GREAT things about our experience with Kai and his team at First Finishers. They display integrity, excellent communication and unbeatable quality work. We will be using them for all future projects. We hired him and his team for an unexpected shower rebuild in a newer home and from the first conversation he followed through with everything that was discussed. If you don’t think you can trust a general contractor you can trust this one!read more

They did kitchen tile backsplash for us and the work was so detail-oriented and quality that we used them to redesign and remodel a custom-made shower that had 30-year-old tile job and was growing mushrooms. We will no longer use any other contractor/company. Got the recommendation from a really detail-oriented hardwood floor guy who said he was happy with work they did for his home so figured they were worth checking out.Our whole experience was phenomenal, starting from their itemized and transparent quote with realistic expectations for timeline and when they would be able to begin the project. We received in advance a detailed schedule of activities with exact dates or range of dates for each item. Most importantly we were shocked to find out they were actually able to hold to that schedule! And this, despite finding unanticipated problems with our bathroom including rot in the frame and inner aspect of exterior wall, which requiring rebuilding/framing and roofing/siding replacement (surprise for them and us!) Somehow they were able to get supplies and get people out to repair all of that within hours/days and STILL keep to the schedule they had provided. With the kitchen tile there was one single issue with some additional tile needing to be ordered which caused a slight delay but they were so kind and professional about it and the delay was pretty minimal - no big deal at all. With this current project they were so ethical and reasonable about minimizing additional cost as much as they reasonably could for the unexpected work, which was also a welcome surprise.Really quality work from this company with employees and sub-contractors you can really count on. A breath of fresh air after some of the prior experiences we had.read more

Where to begin.......First Finishers has exceeded my expectations in every aspect and I will absolutely recommend them to anyone building or remodeling. I still can’t believe what an awesome experience we have had with them. All I have ever heard about general contractors are horror stories so I was nervous but FF quickly set our minds at ease and delivered on every promise. We are incredibly grateful for everything they have done for us. If we could give more than 5 stars, we absolutely would!read more

After a smolder in my attic last may that resulted in having to remove all the ceilings, insulation, wiring, etc in my house, I was put in contact with Tim of First Finishers. He came out, assessed the situation and assembled his team. Tim was very patient with my pestering and asking a plethora of questions. What small things that needed corrected after each stage were efficiently handled. I will definitely use First Finishers again, but I'm hoping it will be under less distressing circumstances.read more

We highly recommend First Finishers. They set the bar high as a company. If I could, I would give them more than 5 stars. We worked with First Finishers on a shower remodel and the replacement of floor tile in 2 bathrooms. If you want a team that are professional, care about providing a quality product and meet budget and project timelines, then First Finishers is the team for you. Kai is an excellent project manager. He is responsive and a great communicator. He is committed to keeping to your timeline and budget. His team of providers are knowledgeable, quality focused and very personable. We thoroughly enjoyed getting to know them and felt like they were friends by the time the project was completed. If you choose First Finishers, you will have chosen a quality team for your project.read more

First Finishers LLC of Yelm are AWESOME! We had our 20 year old oak floors refinished and we love them, even better than when we had them installed. The two workers were considerate of my husband's health needs, put up with our 3 barking chihuahuas and kept us informed of their progress. Kai, one of the bosses, was very fair in pricing and kept us informed of the process. Thank you gentleman for your professionalism, your workmanship and your kindness. The only problem now is we don't want to leave our home, you made it so beautiful. We would highly recommend this company to any one.read more

First Finishers just completed a five week job at my house that included a complete master bathroom remodel, significant kitchen upgrade work, and new floors throughout the home (on both floors and stairs). Also, lots of fussy tile work, some electrical odd and ends...a hodge podge of different things. This meant plumbers, painters, cabinet guys, electricians, etc...all kinds of people coming out to my house. First off, this place looks gorgeous. They did a really good, quality job on all the work. They know what they're doing. Their guys are polite, professional, would stay late to get things done and did their best to leave my house as tidy as possible before leaving for the night. I initially felt a little odd having so many strange people in my house for so many weeks without being here all day to keep an eye on things, but quickly got over that - everyone was so pleasant and professional to work with. We got other bids, and couldn't beat First Finishers for the price compared to the other two we spoke with. Given the extent and multiple types of work to be done, we were very pleasantly surprised to come in a few hundred dollars shy of the bid. There were some hiccups - frustrating, but given all the little odds and ends that needed to be done that is to be expected. I give two big thumbs up to Kai and his crew for rectifying each and every little thing that came up, usually within the same day or the very next day. Can't ask for much more than that. I saw another review on here about not painting trim nicely - I will say that my trim was very well touched up and those painting guys were as methodical as anyone could want. They were very intent on making sure every line and coating was perfect, and spent a ton of time to make that happen. I would hire them again without a second thought.read more

Our experience with First Finishers and an associate, Roofing Pros has been the best imaginable. Sure there are the unexpected challenges along the way, but these are to be expected in a remodel and all were met and resolved to our satisfaction.The 4 projects have been: 1) Roofing and resolving original design problems, 2) Replace the front sidewalk and porch steps and kitchen counters and back splash, 3) Remove and replace back deck with fancy concrete patios and covered deck and 4) Remove and replace shower and upstairs flooring.Each project has produced results that are eye catching. We, with First Finishers help, have made our home a much more enjoyable place to live.Thanks to Kai and the First Finishers workers along with John from the Show Room for their artistic eye and focus on detail.Bruce and Danaread more
