KITCHENS / BATHROOMS

Kitchens and bathrooms are the two key areas in a home where a remodel can increase resale value and really change the overall feel of a house. We have designed and built hundreds of kitchen and bathrooms throughout Maryland, Virginia, and Washington D.C. – each one as unique as the last. Whether your cabinets are stock options, inlay design, or even custom hand built; we’ve done it and every single client has loved working with Great Eastern Contracting. The details matter most with every kitchen and bathroom – and that’s why our goal is communication and organization to make sure nothing is overlooked and every aspect of the build is considered. Our design team can create floorplans, cabinet layouts, and help select every finish to create your dream kitchen or bathroom.

HOW WE CAN HELP

• Full kitchen renovations

• Full primary bathroom renovations

• Full secondary bathroom renovations

Exterior siding / roofing

Curb appeal and exterior elevations are critical in determining that first impression of a property. The first look at the exterior of a house can really influence the overall feel of any home. Great Eastern has worked with all types of siding and all systems of roofing. Hardie board, Vinyl, Cedar, or even just an exterior siding paint not only changes the aesthetics of a house, but acts as the first line of defense against exterior element penetration and thermal insulation values which ultimately lowers your energy bill and saves you money.

HOW WE CAN HELP

• Full new siding and roofing

• Exterior painting

Landscaping /  hardscapes

Outdoor spaces can often be just as important as indoor spaces in your home. We discussed above the importance of curb appeal and creating that great first impression and landscaping is key. We can help create your dream outdoor space from design to completion. Whether it be outdoor kitchen, firepit, patio, driveway, outdoor pool house or anything in between.

HOW WE CAN HELP

• Plant selection

• Outdoor kitchens

• Outdoor firepits and patios

• Outdoor pools

From Our Clients

  • Judy & Andrew:

    What can we say? We love this crew! Good communication and trust are at the heart of any great relationship and key to how Great Eastern Contracting operate. As promised, they delivered our kitchen with connecting great room and front door arrival renovations in a timely fashion and with very fair pricing. And dare I say that we had fun with this group proving that renovations do not have to be painful.

    This was not our first home renovation. We were prepared for surprising discoveries after walls and ceilings come down and unexpected supply delays arise. And you never really know how it's going to go once you sign that contract. Great Eastern always operated in a timely open manner with creativity, excellent craftmanship and non-budget busting solutions. All without sacrificing our vision.

    From the ever-present design team to the contracting team, we could not have been happier with the people, the process and the results. If you are looking for reliability, a passion for excellence and making some new friends, do not hesitate to go with Great Eastern Contracting!

  • Mary Sue B:

    “Great Eastern, with Mac O'Brien in charge, built a second-story deck on our house. From start to finish, they were first rate. Their proposal was detailed and professionally prepared. Their price was fair. They handled all the permitting. The construction was solid, and the finish carpentry was carefully done. Best of all, Mac kept us informed of progress and promptly returned all calls. We will engage them again, with confidence.”

  • Arthur M:

    "I have a rental property in Maryland that has been a challenge over the years because I moved across country. Recently, the tenants reported a leak in the ceiling and after going through several failed attempts at identifying and correcting the source of the problem, Mac at Great Eastern Properties took over. He got a team down there, coordinating the dry wall rip out, mold remediation, multiple Plummer trips, re-drywall and painting. He kept the price down on everything but most of all communicated with me via email and phone calls throughout the whole process. I couldn't recommend this company enough and I will definitely be doing business with them moving forward. Thanks Mac and Great Eastern Properties! "

  • Liz E:

    "Mac was such a great contractor to work with. Incredibly responsive. No problem too big or small to tackle. We had two bathrooms remodeled and we are extremely satisfied with the completed job. Will be lining up my next project with Great Eastern and would highly recommend. "

  • Susan B:

    "I help to manage my elderly parents' rental property, and in so doing, heard about Great Eastern Properties. I began working with Mac directly on some exterior work that needed to be done in a hurry in order to meet inspection. I talked to him on a Wednesday and that Saturday he had his crew out there getting all the work done, which was rather extensive. He and his crew did a really quality job and went above and beyond! In addition, I felt that he gave us a very fair price. Since then, I have called on Mac to do interior work, as well--again for inspections. I like that he is pleasant and patient, and after working with him twice now I highly recommend him and his crew. I do feel that I can completely trust Mac to do a high quality job in a timely manner and with fair pricing. "

  • Charles:

    "I have worked with Mac at Great Eastern Properties for several projects at my rental property. I live out of state and Mac did excellent jobs in communicating over the phone or email. He made extra efforts (e.g. taking pictures or describing the issue over the phone) that I would have all the information that I needed to make a decision on repair or improvement projects. He was also very easy to talk to and bounced some ideas around. I will definitely reach out to him whenever I need help. Thanks."

  • Steve & Allison:

    Great Eastern Contracting was absolutely phenomenal to work with. Mac, Becca, Rachel, Hamilton and the entire crew were professional, nimble to accommodate changes, and incredibly responsive. They worked to understand the vision we had, and the end result was a remodel that completely transformed our home - and delivered ahead of schedule! Thank you GEC team!

  • Gary F:

    Mac and his crew from Great Eastern Contracting did a total remodel on my basement so we could set it up as a short term rental unit. The entire project went very smoothly. From initial meeting through design and construction and then final delivery. The group is very efficient and offer competitive pricing, the quality of their work and they’re willingness to make changes made them extremely good to deal with.

    I would absolutely refer them to you for any home project that you may have.

  • Mike R:

    Mac and his team remodeled our kitchen, and they did an outstanding job. The communication throughout the project was excellent; Mac was always quick to respond to any questions. His team worked efficiently and effectively, completing the project on time and to a high standard. We are more than excited with the results and are certainly looking forward to using his team again for future projects.

  • Deborah R:

    My husband and I recently moved from NJ to Annapolis purchasing a beautiful, older home.

    We were in quick need of a contractor for some remodeling and repair work. Mac O'Brien from Great Eastern Contracting has been instrumental in helping us settle into our new home in a new state. We have had issues ranging from emergency well repairs, leaks, electrical issues to the installation of new hardwood floors and remodeling projects both inside and outside of the house. Mac has been super quick with resolution, honest, fair quotes and quality work. Mac has a network of service people that can tackle any problem no matter how big or small. It has been truly refreshing working with a genuinely nice, contractor who really cares about his clients!!

  • Leslie J:

    My home is my happy place. It’s where family and friends gather to celebrate our blessings. So, when I was considering a company to remodel my home, I looked for someone with integrity, reliability, and a reputation for caring about the quality of work performed. I found all of this and more with Mac O’Brien and Great Eastern Contracting. The work is impeccable! Each person involved in the project was a specialist with outstanding talent, a great work ethic, and a pleasant personality. I felt like not only my home but my family was cared for. These are the only people I want to work with. 

THE EXPERIENCE

A SEAMLESS PROCESS BUILT ON RELIABILITY

Every project – no matter how big or small – should start with attention to detail. We believe organization, communication, and dedication are the steps to success.

  • We take this opportunity to introduce ourselves, learn what your goals are for the project, and help you understand our overall process from start to finish. Depending on scope and design – we always try and turn around a full bid proposal with the understanding that time is always of the essence.

  • Great Eastern – in partnership with Intuitive Design – can help bring your ideas and goals to a full build ready planset. This is where we like to focus on all the details. The more decisions, finishes, fixtures, measurements, and information we can establish before we start a project; means a much quicker and smoother construction timeline which benefits all parties involved.

  • Our crews take pride in the Great Eastern name as well – and we guarantee a product you will love. We have decades of experience between our team and have worked on every project from new construction down to minor bathroom updates. We have licensed electricians, plumbers, and HVAC mechanical technicians all in house to ensure that every process thorughout any project is completed up to whatever local code may be. Our techs are well versed in city / state / local bylaws to ensure proper operating procedures as required by local building code. Innovation is important as well – new technologies, products, and practices in the construction industry seem to appear more and more often and its best to work with a team that knows how to work with all of them.

  • We have found this is the most important aspect of any renovation / build. Communication on all fronts helps make sure all aspects move quicker and more efficient. A shorter construction timeline saves both the client and the contractor money. No body likes living through a construction project and we understand and appreciate that. Our goal – to make your next project as easy and enjoyable as it can possibly be.

  • Here at Great Eastern – we don’t settle for unhappy clients. We haven’t had one yet – and we don’t plan on ever changing that mentality. Turnkey and move in ready should be an industry standard for any project. This is everyone’s favorite part of any project and we are proud with every job we’ve stepped foot on.
