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

In August 2018 we had a devastating house fire. We were recommended by a friend to call Tim Fyrst at First Finishers. We have never had such an amazing experience. Between First Finishers and our insurance company, Country Financial, they worked seamlessly, rebuilding a beautiful, well-crafted home. All the staff at First Finishers, including those in The Show Room, were kind, caring, understanding and so helpful. They turned our disaster into an incredibly smooth experience. I have recommended and will continue to recommend them. I give Tim and his crew an A+. Thank you Tim, Kai, Kim and staff Greg & Jody Rocheread more

First Finishers should absolutely be your first consideration if you want a first rate and thoroughly complete first class result. When you hire First Finishers you can expect, without exception, a professional and personable team of highly skilled crafts people to deliver fast, complete work that is artwork and function wrapped together in one package. Seriously, the short experience of having the crew in your home for a mere 5 weeks for a remodel is something that you wish might have lasted longer! Why would I say that? It’s said because the crew is so darn personable and skilled. It was our pleasure to have known them for 5 weeks. How does it sound to you to have a remodel done in just 5 weeks? It should sound terrific and it is. It is a great benefit not to have to give up your lifestyle for a longer extended time. Your benefactor who oversees the 5 week timetable is the one and only John Sullivan. John owns the SHOWROOM in Yelm and helps you design and pick out all the amenities, products and accoutrements you will want and need. John is also your point man, tour director, concierge, consultant, schedule manager, problem solver, coordinator, story teller and someone who is your friend throughout and perhaps beyond your remodel experience. John will always keep you up to date and tell you in advance what and who is coming next to get the work done. Your end result will be something that you will love and be very well done by skilled and friendly craftspeople in timely fashion. To cap off the relationship we entered into with First Finishers and John Sullivan was a $100 “Thank You” certificate from them to enjoy at a great restaurant. John presented a certificate to us for Ricardo’s Restaurant in Lacey. We went there about 6 months after our bathroom remodel was completed. It was fitting that this fine restaurant was on a par with the first class treatment and result provided to us by First Finishers and John. Thank you, John and the entire team at First Finishers. Carey and Pamela Finn Olympia, WA.read more

Working with First Finishers on a recent update in our home was a great experience. From the first contact with Kai to talk about our wish list to the finished project, communication was great. As novices working with contractors we had lots of questions which were answered thoroughly and promptly. The crew who did the work was professional and friendly. We had a new window installed. Great care was taken to match the existing wood trim and the hardwood floors we had installed are a work of art that we will enjoy for many years.read more

We have hired First Finishers for 3 different jobs ai our condo. The first job was to install approximately 500 sq ft of marble tiles i our laundry room, entry way and kitchen. The work was performed with great care by true craftsmen. The result was a beautiful floor and we are very happy with their work. The second job was to install a backsplash in our galley kitchen. The installation was performed quickly and with great care. Again, the result was a beautiful backsplash and we are very happy with their work. The third job was a new shower cabinet in the guest bath. The new shower enclosure was fabricated by Onyx and the new shower was by Grohe. Again,the installation was performed quickly and with great care. The new shower system is marvelous to use and the new shower enclosure is beautiful. We heartily recommend First Finishers to anyone seeking capable and hard working remodeling services. We will certainly hire them again for future jobs.read more

I hired First Finishers via Lowe's to complete a kitchen and bathroom remodel in Feb of 2017. They ended up taking care of some major rot damage for us as well that was found throughout the process. There are pros and cons with every contracting team and this is what I can let you know: Pros: Kai is excellent at communicating with you throughout the project and does his best to keep on a timely schedule. They were definitely fair priced in my opinion after receiving several bids. I was very happy with his tilers and electricians. Really everyone I came across with was enjoyable to work with. They would be willing to come by on weekends or stay late to stay on schedule. Overall I was very happy with how my kitchen and master bathroom turned out. Due to all the rot we found we also sought legal action against the previous owner of our home and Kai was more than willing to do whatever we needed to help us for that. Cons: I did read another review on here about them needing improvement on finish work and I would have to agree. Everything was really good in my opinion except for touch ups on paint and interior trim work. I found trim to have dents or scratches and touch up paint that just looked pretty bad. Basically when the lights are on you can see every little spot because instead of covering the one nail hole there would be patches of whatever wax/filler was used. Of course this stuff was shinier than the actual trim so it's pretty noticeable. HOWEVER, when Kai became aware of these concerns (months later) he was more than willing to send someone out for more touch up, but by that point I was doing it myself because I accepted I just wouldn't be happy with the result otherwise. The crew also didn't clean up that great where cabinets were installed. Dust isn't an issue, but when drawers and doors are installed on the cabinets I would think it be nice if the chunks of wood could have been vacuumed up before they became hard to reach. Also some miscommunications occurred with his employees about what we wanted, but those were taken care of as well. Despite the cons I still give them a 5 star rating because if they made mistakes they were more than willing to rectify them which I find very respectable. I only list the cons so that future clients know to stay on top of those things. Kai is more than willing to make sure the customer is satisfied. Thank you First Finishers!read more

First Finishers is seriously amazing! They are so committed to perfection, never have I worked with a group of master finishers who get the job done so quickly and perfectly done. We had our floor done for our family restaurant done (Don Juan's Mexican Kitchen) and their attention to detail and time was on point. We were happy that we didn't have to close down our business in order to have our flooring done. They worked around our schedule and floor was ready in time for us to open for business. We highly recommend them!! Thank you First Finishers!!!read more

Best Service & Quality Installation!! I hired First Finishers to dry out my house after I had a leak. They removed all of the old damaged flooring and trim and brought equipment in to dry everything out. The crew was very professional, clean and efficient. I was overwhelmed in the beginning, but after the first day dealing with them I was able to relax. They did an amazing job on the floor installation as well as the trim. You can tell that these guys care. Thank you Kai for being so helpfulread more

First Finishers built a beautiful new home for Mary and I in Yelm. The quality of work exceeded our expectations and the job came in below budget and on time. We highly recommend FF for any construction project. The company was highly recommended to us and we had seen some of their beautiful work at the Victoria Secret store. From our experience they seem almost anal in attention to detail requiring subs which may not have done the best job to tear out the substandard work and redo it. Any negative experience in our opinion would not be the "norm" for FF and I believe they would quickly respond to any complaints to fully back the quality of their work.read more

I had kitchen appliances installed for me by First Finishers which required the pre existing kitchen cabinetry to be removed then altered and then refitted. A tough job. It came out perfectly. The very expensive ovens were meticulously handled with white glove precision leaving the kitchen looking like a piece of art work from a 5 star kitchen show. At the same time I had an electrical nightmare in our cabin which had sockets burning out and catching fire. That was sorted out for me too. The entire experience with FF was professional, forthright and top notch. Definitely recommended..!!read more

Worst contractor experience we've ever had. Finish work is definitely not their strong suit. Replacing all of the flooring in our house was a big job, so we carefully chose a professional to take this on. Our first noted issue was a small dent in our washing machine, for which we were told they would fix "in good faith" (which was fixed with one coat of appliance paint). There were multiple little issues, including an employee "breaking a metal toilet paper roller" and not telling us, replacing it with a cheap plastic one. We won't even get into all of them. During demo and removing trim, multiple places ended up with the paint and texture removed in chunks. Fortunately I was able to find most of the pieces and glue them back on and repaint. The trim was caulked, but we didn't have issues removing it before when we had replaced flooring in the family room. While the flooring looks nice, there are multiple visible nail holes in our new flooring that are not covered by the trim. When they put the trim back up, the corners didn't even match up in height. We've ended up having to redo much of the trim. They didn't even putty in their nail holes. The demo ended up doubling in cost and there were other things not included in estimate. Although the flooring looks really nice, it's definitely not worth all the hassle, repair work, and lack of customer service.read more
