We did a full garage conversion with Blue Lake Construction and I honestly can’t say enough good things about Leo and the crew. We live in Shoreline and had a two-car garage we weren’t using, and after our third kid arrived, we really needed more livable space. We decided to turn it into a guest suite with a full bedroom, bathroom, and laundry room.

From day one, Leo came in super prepared—he already had drawings and permit info ready to go before we even signed. That gave us a lot of confidence. We had spoken to other contractors who were vague or gave us sketchy timelines, but Leo was honest and clear about everything from the beginning. Not the cheapest bid, but by far the most professional.

Permit process took around 3.5 months, which Leo warned us about upfront, and then construction went on for a little over 3 months. The results? Way better than what we pictured. The space looks like it’s always been part of the house. You’d never guess it used to be a garage.

The bathroom looks amazing, the laundry room is super functional (shout out to the tile guy—seriously impressive work), and the bedroom came out cozy and quiet, exactly what we needed for guests or even a possible Airbnb down the line.

All the guys on site were super respectful, cleaned up after themselves daily, and kept us updated. The office team was also great with handling all the materials, deliveries, and even helped us pick finishes when we were overwhelmed.

Big thanks to Leo and everyone at Blue Lake. You guys made this project smooth, stress-free, and honestly enjoyable. Highly recommend if you’re looking for serious quality and a team that acutely deliver.

This was such a positive experience. I live out in Lakewood, WA. I got introduced to Leo and Blue Lake Construction through a good family friend who’s an investor. Leo had done a big house flip for them over in Sumner and when I saw how good the work turned out, I asked if he could help us too.

My husband needed more space in his shop, so we wanted to build a loft for storage. It wasn’t simple; it needed to be designed right, with strong footing and framing so it would be safe for me and my hubby. Leo came right out, listened real carefully to what we were looking for, and right then and there he sketched out a full plan and explained everything.

By the next week, the work was already rolling. His crew showed up on time, the materials were all there, and they got right to it. In just a week they built almost 1000 square feet of loft space! The work was solid, neat, and the price was very fair too.

We’re so happy with how it turned out. We’re already planning on using Leo again for another project. If you want someone who really knows what they’re doing and actually cares about doing a good job, you need to call Leo. Thank you again for everything!

We found Blue Lake Construction after my husband searching on Google. We were looking for company to finish our basement, add stairs up to the master bedroom, remove the old furnace, level the floor, framing, insulation, vinyl flooring, paint, hang doors, do wiring and add lights and outlets. Big project!

We interviewed a few companies but after talking with Leo and Blue Lake team we felt most confident and comfortable with them. The price they gave was fair, not cheapest but honest and professional. Also, we were very impressed how they document their projects on Instagram, it gave us a sense of how they work; and we could tell they were legit. That gave us a lot of trust.

The project came out even better than we expected! Everything we wanted and more.

We got amazing new space for our growing family and we are really happy we chose Leo and Blue Lake. All the workers were very hardworking and respectful, they really cared about the quality. Also big thank you to the office team for helping with ordering all the materials and making everything easy for us.

Thank you Leo, thank you workers, thank you Blue Lake Construction!

omg i’m sooo happy we picked Blue Lake Construction for our kitchen remodel!! seriously leo is the best. from the first meeting he came with a full plan and layout already done like no other contractor did that. and he showed us sooo many past projects, you could just tell he’s super experienced and knows what he’s doing.

so we had this wall that just blocked the whole space and leo's team took it down and put a huge island instead and it just opened up everything! we also had a small window we didn’t want anymore so they removed it, insulated the wall, added siding outside and new sheetrock inside like nothing was ever there.

they also added wayyy more cabinet space which we really needed. we got two tone cabinets and a waterfall countertop that i’m actually obsessed with. the whole kitchen is like straight out of a magazine now lol.

we had hardwood in the living room and leo matched the kitchen floor perfectly so now it’s all one flowy beautiful space.

and the Best part?? they finished it all before my husband’s family came to visit. like just in time. i was soooo grateful.

honestly blue lake was amazing all the way. they were nice, super clean, and always showed up when they said they would. just good people.

100% recommend. thank u Leo!!

Had amazing experience with Leo and team , got Leo from my neighbor which did the same extension that I wanted to do. Permit took them 4 months and the construction took another 3.5 months. I’m very happy with the results and the extra sqft we got ! Thanks again Leo I will recommend on you to all my mechanics friends!

I found Value Max Construction through Yelp when I needed to repaint the entire interior of my house ASAP before I moved in. Roman responded right away, gave me a quote, and was able to fit my project in even sooner than my deadline. He was very nice, professional, and helpful. He was always quick to respond and answer my questions. His team took about 3 days to prep and paint my entire house to my specifications, and it looked great afterward. I definitely recommend using Value Max Construction for your painting needs!
