Excellent. Elite Development LLC operated business with great service. Ahmed porter and crew were punctual and the work was given a professional touch. Although I got a slightly lower quotation from another company, but felt more confident with Elite Development. When Ahmed was asked to match the second quote, he gladly did. Work was done in a lesser time than I anticipated with absolutely no problems. He obtained the necessary work permits and when the housing inspectors came to check, they confirmed that the work was done in compliance to DC Housing code and regulation.
Hey! my house has been transformed effectively without hassle. I would definitely hire them again if their service is needed. I would also recommend them to anyone who wants a job done with precision and by professionals.

We hired Elite to do several projects in our home--including adding two new bathrooms, remodeling the basement, trim, painting, electrical, and plumbing work. We are extremely unhappy with the quality of Elite's work, and the length of time it would take to get projects completed. For instance, the tile work they did in one of the bathrooms is so bad that we need to have it re-done. When I expressed that their work was not satisfactory, Ahmed chose to ignore my requests to remedy the situation. Almost one year after starting our home remodel, we still have projects that Ahmed and his team have not completed--paint jobs that were started and then abandoned, holes in walls, trim work that is partly done. They also caused damage to our home. They put a hole through a radiator pipe that caused a leak in our basement and family room. We had to have a plumber come out to fix it, and Ahmed refused to fairly compensate us for the cost of the plumber, and have his carpenter repair the damage to our walls, ceilings, and floors.

I have worked with Elite for two bathroom projects. The first was for my master bath remodel. His employees did a great job and cleaned up the job site daily. They arrived early (5-10 min) and knocked on the door promptly at 7:30 to 8:00, whichever was their arrival time for that day.
The second job was a basement "fix me please since the previous contractor did a horrible job". The quote was fair and his team was in and out QUICKLY which is a huge satisfier for me. I used my own materials for both jobs.
The only reason for 4 instead of 5 stars is Elite has an account with Home Depot. My materials/finishes were purchased from Lowes. In the instance Elite did need to pick up certain specific items, they were from HD and may not have matched exactly to what I had purchased.... This could have been avoided if I did all the pick ups, but I will admit, sometimes it was just easier and quicker for them to get the item.
All in all, I am pleased with their work and will use them for the third and final bathroom renovation for my home. Thank you Elite Development.

I hired Ahmed Porter from this company to complete a full renovation project. The job was supposed to be six months and two years later they still were not complete. There were issues all throughout the project because they tried to cheapen the job and cut corners. Not only did they do the job poorly, they did not know building codes and were ultimately not qualified for the job despite them having a business license and all the paperwork for a standard construction business. The project resulted in many code violations in the property and my basement being illegal. I pursued legal action to seek damages and won and I am still unable to collect my money from them. Please do not be swayed by the previous reviews which appear to be falsely made. They were posted around the same timeframe and by new users with no other review post history.

bathroom project august 2014 - I would recommend Elite Development to anyone! Professional service, explained what was to be done, cleaned up everything, completed the work before the date given...I had the floor, tub, wall around the tub and the toilet replaced... I love my bathroom...they even retouched the paint and put up the glass shelves for me. DJ

I worked with Elite in 2012-2013 doing a rather comprehensive renovation project on a historic home in Baltimore City. With all projects, there will be bumps in the road, but the overall outcome of the work I had done (Plumbing, HVAC, Electrical, Original HW floor restoration, tile work and more) was great. The professionalism and care they took with my job makes them a company that I would be more than willing to work with again in the future, as well as recommend to friends and colleagues.

We hire Elite to renovate our kitchen and bathrooms. It was a costly job and we paid $3500 to Elite specifically to obtain all the necessary plans, permits and schedule inspections. Months after the contract was completed, we were contacted by Montgomery County building inspectors who informed us that no inspections were ever conducted, no electrical permit was ever obtained, and that Elite's work did not meet code in multiple areas. They told us we will have to open up our ceilings and walls so they can further inspect the wiring, re-install the kitchen range hood, re-tile the backsplash to accommodate the necessary electrical outlets, the exhaust fans in the bath were not vented outside and so on. We contacted Elite but so far they have refused to take responsibility and want more money to do the job properly.

Mr. Porter and his Elite company did a good job of renovating our restrooms. First Seventh-day Adventist Church needed these done in a timely manner. Elite completed this project on time and the cost was more than competitive. It was an investment that expressed quality and money spent well for First Church. The cost of the project was around $150,000. The members of First Church and their visiting family and friends have had nothing but positives about their "new" restrooms they use to regularly complain about. Thank you Mr. Porter and Elite for helping First Church fulfill a portion of its mission and objective to nurture its members and be people-caretakers.

I am currently rehabbing a house with the world's smallest bathrooms. Two of them are less than 3 ft. wide. However, I insisted that the master bathroom have a bathtub. In order to make that possible, my contractor is building a small vanity in a corner. It's small but at least there's some place to put the toilet paper!

Elite Development were very professional! I got my bathroom renovated for $15,000 and my kitchen $25,000. The other quotes I received were double from what Elite's estimate was. My husband and I took a chance and hired Elite Development for the job and it was one of the best decisions we made! Although it took them a week longer, it was worth every penny because we saved a bunch! They always were available to answer questions and never left us out the loop of what was going on. I felt comfortable at all times when they were working on our project. We definitely would use there services again and/or refer them to anyone because of the overall experience we had with them!

Elite Development has successfully completed several projects for me. I'm a Real Estate Broker and they have not only worked in my home but they have done great work in my client's homes as well. They have remodeled kitchens, bathrooms, and basements for me. I use and recommend them because they do what they say they are going to do on time and on budget. I can't afford for them to do anything less. As long as they keep doing great work, I have no reason to think about calling anyone else.
