Build like a big company. Run like a family.

This is how Quinn Harbright describes Brindisi Builders, a storied full-service home renovation company that has been serving South Jersey and the greater Philadelphia region for nearly half a century.

"With us, customers get the benefits of a large scale operation, but if you visit our office, everyone for the most part is family. We have 20 in-house employees, but we're capable of large-scale work," explains Harbright, who serves as vice president of remodeling and design.

That work spans commercial to residential, from renovations in a high-rise to changing out a bungalow's front door—and everything in between. With more than 30,000 remodeling jobs under its belt, Brindisi Builders boasts a portfolio of extensive custom kitchen remodels, luxury bath transformations, additions and complete remodels, such as adding an entire second floor to a home. The company has built its reputation on accommodating all customers and all projects, which has helped establish them as a premier renovation company in the region.

"We handle all types of renovation projects," Harbright says, adding they're happy to work with customers with clear design visions and those who know they want something fresh, but may be unsure of the details.

Building for generations
There is longevity among Brindisi customers—not just through a single lifetime, but for generations.

"There are a lot of people that we did work for that now 20 or 30 years later, we're doing work for their kids," Harbright explains. "That goes to show how important customer service is to us."

Harbright estimates about 75% of Brindisi jobs come from either repeat business or referrals. This is a compliment, of course, but also indicative of the atmosphere the Brindisi team builds alongside new kitchens and baths.

"The better you're treating people on site the more likely you're going to get referrals in the future. It makes for a better work environment as well," Harbright says.

The longtime experience also means Brindisi Builders has seen trends come and go—and come back again—when it comes to home renovations.

"It's the circle of life. I'm watching things come back that we've gotten rid of," says Mike Brindisi, founder and president. "It's amazing."

Following the trends
White, blue and gray cabinetry has run its course, according to Harbright.

"People are moving back toward warmer tones, slightly off-whites. Linen-colored whites. Chocolatey-colored browns," he says.

Custom colors are also popular, which is no problem for Brindisi Builders. "With our cabinet company, if somebody wants to paint a cabinet, we can do anything you can get at a paint store," Harbright says.

Wood is coming back in fashion, too, although Harbright says it hasn't gained full steam yet. Wood accents in cabinets are popular, and wood is also being used to offset an island or bar. Mochas, espresso and browns are the wood colors growing in popularity.

"The turnover to going to stained wood cabinets will come quicker than getting back into the warm tones," Harbright says. "I don't think we'll go back to reddish-toned stains; it will be based in browns."

Apron-front sinks—like a hybrid farm/undermount sink—are still a popular choice in kitchens, where Harbright estimates about half of their customers are opting for the design. Islands remain popular, too, whereas peninsulas are typically only being chosen when it works best from a functional standpoint.

In bathrooms, a lot of customers are still opting for simple modern designs, which have been popular for the past decade, but Harbright is also seeing tile backsplashes getting more ornate as time goes on, such as herringbone, basket weaves and mosaic.

According to Brindisi, bathroom cabinetry is "still mixed" with painted cabinets and wood stain, and bathroom fixtures are staying away from chrome.

"The biggest colors are your brushed nickel, oiled and rubbed bronze, and black," he says.

First step is a phone call
Working with Brindisi Builders is as easy as picking up the phone. A member of the Brindisi team will then meet with the client for a free estimate, during which they establish the client's wants, needs, concerns and budget, and then build a project that fits within those parameters. And once the proposal is accepted and contracts signed, customers can rest assured Brindisi will deliver quality work and care from the first day on the job.

"We're family owned. Our employees have been with us a minimum of 20 years," says Brindisi. "Our attention to detail sets us apart, and most of our work is handled in house."
