My husband and I are both really pleased we chose Calco for this investment. For context on our project, we needed the plumbing in our upstairs bathroom redone as it wasn’t up to code, and the set up was frankly quite sketchy (for example, when you turned the faucet on, the shower head and bath faucet moved along with it). We both figured since the tub and all needed to be taken out to address this, we might as well update them at the same time. I wish our budget would have allowed for floors and such to match the beautiful work done on the bath and sink/vanity, but we plan to do that in the future.

Mickey and Josh were our team for this project and we cannot sing high enough praises. Very communicative, friendly, courteous, prompt, and it’s very clear how much pride both of these fellows take in their jobs. They were meticulous at each step, informed us of everything going on with the timeline, and when they encountered unique problems, Mickey was sure to explain the solutions they would use and why. I REALLY appreciated how thorough Mickey was with explaining everything he was doing. I felt very much that they were taking utmost care with our home, and weren’t just there to do a job. They left the area clean every single day, and laid out a line of drop cloths in every path of movement which helped to keep our home clean of debris as they came and went. Big thank yous to both Josh and Mickey!!

Overall this was a great experience, and Calco for sure will be my first call for any future projects in my home.

I had Calco do the design and renovation of two bathrooms and a kitchen, I have to say the experience from start to finish was nothing short of amazing. I had become skeptical of this process from contractors that I had out previously and went into meeting Paul and his team with my guard up. I quickly let it down after there was transparent communication on pricing from the Calco team. They were very open and told me what options were most realistic for my budget. The men who came out to my home and did the work were respectful, clean, and pulled my wife and I into different aspects of the project. Drew even brought my wife and I coffee and donuts a few days each week. They were so polite and got along with our dogs well before Drew left us after project completion he actually begged to take one of our dogs for a walk!! With out hesitation, I would HIGHLY recommend Calco for any remodeling needs you have.
Michele S.
We highly recommend Paul and his company, CalCo Design. He is very professional, polite, and extremely informative. Paul was able to give great insight and ideas to our farmhouse remodel plan. We had an extremely positive experience and his reputation speaks for itself. Thank you.

The entire Calco team did an amazing job remodeling our kitchen. From the first steps of planning to the finishing touches we always felt like they had our best interest in mind and cared about the details. Our home is 100+ years old and had a unique and challenging kitchen area but despite the challenges the kitchen could not have turned out better. It took incredible skill, patience and hard work to complete, not to mention coordination between the many different people it took to get the job done. Whenever we had questions or concerns they were handled quickly and with care. We highly recommend Calco and hope to work with them again the future!

We recently hired Calco to remodel our master bathroom. Darryl and Noah were polite, professional, and cleaned up at the end of each day. They communicated with us throughout the entire project. We always knew what they were doing and what to expect. The project ended up taking alittle longer than scheduled, but we never felt that they were rushing to get it done faster. They worked hard to make sure everything was done right. Thanks guys for an amazing job. We couldn't be happier.
Zachary W.
I wish I could give 10 stars when above and beyond on your kitchen remodel. Professional clean lay down, drop cloth and cleaned up after themselves every day. 10 out of 10 .
Catherine K.
After completing two different projects for me over the past year, I am very happy I chose Calco to do both my bath and kitchen renovations. Overall, five stars for every aspect of each renovation, from design, quality of product, craftsmanship, attention to detail, and most of all communication with a sometimes nit-picky client. No doubt we’ll be doing business again in the future.
Mark O.
Recently had our 30 year old master bath completely remodeled by Calco. Micky and Josh did a terrific job. They worked hard, respected my home, had good ideas along the way that made our project turn out even better, and cleaned up at the end of each day. They worked seven days straight to get the job done.The materials used were all high quality. The whole team was great to work with. Turned out beautifully! Highly recommend.

We decided on updating our secondary bathroom this year. We wanted a quality product at a good price, and we also wanted knowledgeable installers. After a few interviews with different remodel companies we decided on using Calco for our bathroom tub/shower remodel. On the first day of the install, Daryl and Noah went over the work to be done. Each workday they placed floor protectors down on our floors to protect them from their activity and removed them when they left for the day. They also cleaned up any mess they made.
Daryl and Noah accomplished our project within 3 days. They were very professional and polite. We really love the new shower and most importantly our kids do too.
We would use CALCO again!
Doug S.
Ed and Pearce did a fantastic job on our bathroom. They were both so easy to work with and went out of there way to make sure things were done correctly. We are so happy with the end result and would definitely engage CALCO again on another project.

I was in desperate need of a new bathroom. My bathroom was falling into my dining room. Hired CALCO and they sent Mickey and Josh and they started right away after everything dried out. They involved me with everything. That is exactly what I wanted. Every night they showed me the process they made for the day and we talked about what they expected to accomplish the next day. Mickey and Josh are kind, professional, clean, and perfectionists. They did a wonderful job with my bathroom. And they cleaned up every night before they left.

CALCO sent Darryl and Josh to work on my dining room ceiling. My ceiling tiles were falling from all the water damage. CALCO wanted to finish the job. Excellent customer service! What other company would fix something else so you wouldn't have a big hole in your ceiling.
Allie L.
We had CalCo renovate our children’s and our master bathroom. I was so impressed with their professionalism and their craftsmanship. During our initial sales meeting with Ben we were offered great education and learned they only sell quality products. Luis and his Dedo did our work and we couldn’t be happier. They were wonderful. Luis did a fabulous job with both bathrooms and completed both in such a timely manner. It was an absolute pleasure having them work in our house. We are beyond pleased with how both bathrooms turned out and I would recommend the company to anyone.
Christopher D.
Mikey and Josh were yhe installers for our new shower. They did a wonderful job. It took them two days to convert our old tub into a beautiful walk-in shower. Calco did a wonderful job would definitely recommend them to anyone. Quality of product is amazing.
Debbie G.
My husband and I just had our Masterbath remodeled by Calco Design. The entire team starting with the quotes and design recommendations by Paul were very professional. Darryl and Drew were the main contractors from the team we worked with. They were very detail oriented and flexible when changes needed to be made. They arrived on time each day and finished with vacuuming and cleaning up after themselves at the end of everyday. Darryl really went the extra mile with all the finishing touches he helped us with. Coming over the weekend and through snow storms to make sure our bathroom would be finished on time. I would highly recommend this locally owned business for your next remodeling project!
Michael W.
Calco's mission statement of turning families dreams into reality has been what my family and I have experienced. Their install techs Mickey and Josh have taken the utmost pride in their work. All while treating my home with the respect it deserves. They were polite and well mannered and kept their work areas clean. The materials used to rebuild my bathroom are top notch. The craftsmanship of Mickey and Josh was outstanding. My decision to hire Calco for this remodel has proven to be an excellent choice. Thank you to everyone at Calco, for helping make my families bathroom dreams come true!
Anna D.
After several interviews, we decided on using Calco for our bathroom total remodal. Although it started later than previous scheduled, they accomplished our project with in 7 days. Their team member, Josh was especially courteous and helpful. The whole team was professional and accommodating of our personal schedules and needs during the holiday season.
Valerie G.
Our bathroom remodel started off a little rocky but CalCo Design & Renovation met each challenge with professionalism and dedication. Paul and Tim were empathetic and determined to give us the bathroom of our dreams. Brian is a trim master and true professional. Luis did an amazing job on our new walk in shower and bathroom floor. Luis treated us like family and like our home was his. He had amazing communication and kept us apart of the project ensuring our satisfaction. We love our new bathroom and floors. Thank you all!
Robert H.
Calco was amazing to work with. The guys are so accommodating and patient. They put up with us and our two dogs every day to get the job done. Call out to Andrew who can do absolutely anything. He is amazing. Also, Travis and Daryl are awesome. They all felt like family. Highly recommended and great work.

Dear CalCo-

Thank you so much for all you have done to make our bathroom remodel a seamless experience. During the consultation, your thorough knowledge of materials and products ensured that everything stayed true to the design of our older home.

The workmanship was outstanding, showcasing incredible attention to detail. The installers (Luis and Eddie) arrived on time, were friendly and worked diligently over three days of installation. They consistently maintained a clean workspace, which we greatly appreciated.

Moreover, they took the time to walk us through the new shower fixtures and functionality at the end of the remodel. Your guidance made the transition smooth an stress free.

We couldn’t be any happier with our new bathroom, and we have gotten amazing feedback from our loved ones as well. Thank you again.

Calco did a phenomenal job on our bathroom. This process was new to us as it was our first renovation to our first home. All of Calco’s team were extremely polite, professional, and honest. We were able to watch and be a part of the entire process, allowing us to make decisions every step of the way. Definitely would recommend!
Kristen G.
I hired CalCo Design to remodel my kitchen, and I couldn't be happier with the results! The cabinets, countertops, and tile backsplash are absolutely stunning. The team was incredibly helpful throughout the design process. Tim and Paul made sure that everything went smoothly. They were also very considerate of our comfort during the entire remodel, ensuring we were informed and comfortable at every step. Their attention to detail and the quality of their work is outstanding, and I would highly recommend CalCo Design to anyone looking for a top-notch kitchen renovation!
Henry Y.
Very happy with my experience with CalCo. Tim actually listened to what I wanted for replacing my two showers and worked within my budget without trying to up sell me. Luis did an awesome job with the installations and kept the work area clean everyday. You can tell he takes pride in his work. The job took longer than estimated but I was perfectly fine knowing that they were taking their time to do it right rather than rush to the next job. These guys were very professional and kept my stress level to a minimum which is saying a lot!
Sarah J.
We have been putting off remodeling the second floor bathroom for a few years now. I could not be happier we chose Calco to do this project for us. Paul walked us through the whole process from start to finish making sure we were comfortable every step of the way. Luis and drew were professional and dedicated to making sure we loved the results. I was especially impressed with how quick they were able to get it done and how they cleaned up each day. I love my new bathroom and cant get over how beautiful my shower is now. Thank you Calco for remodeling my dream bathroom.
Donna T.
I got 3 estimates for my kitchen remodel. They were more than the other two but when I compared the materials that they use, and I met Paul I knew they were the ones for the job. Paul worked with me to find an affordable price and gave me a superior product.I felt like it mattered that my business was important. Tim was very nice too. Day 1 of my project I met Mickey and Matt who did the installation. They were on time, respectful and made sure that my floors were protected. Every day they cleaned up and informed me of every step. Mickey installed the tricky backsplash with the skill of the craftsman that he is. Matt also was very knowledgeable and brought a bright spot to my day. When the job was completed, it was important to them that I was completely satisfied. Paul followed up with a phone call to see how it went. I told him that when I have my bathroom done that I will definitely use their business again. Great job all around!!
Brooke C.
Calco Design & Renovation exceeded all my expectations! They set an appointment within days of me calling. Tim came to the house and really listened to what I was looking to accomplish. He was very professional and knowledgeable about all of the materials. He put together a perfect rendering of the design. The entire install process went seamlessly. The crew was very professional and no detail was overlooked. It was very important to me to incorporate the original vanity lighting in the new bathroom and they were able to do so. It looks incredible with the new bathroom design. I look forward to working with Calco Design & Renovation again!
Ted M.
Would like to express how beautiful my bathroom turned out.Was a wonderful experience it was dealing with Tim and especially Luis and Eduardo.
Kiersten L.
I cannot speak more highly of Calco Design! From the very first consult meeting, Tim was extremely helpful with providing us samples and helping us develop our vision for our kitchen. All of the products Calco Design uses are top notch quality. Communication was always timely and professional. When it came time for the real work to begin, everyone was knowledgeable and efficient. Drew paid special attention to all of the details - not one thing was missed! The whole team went above and beyond our expectations. The final product is absolutely gorgeous and we could not be more in love! We already have Calco lined up to complete our bathroom remodel next!
Jim D
Awesome job, great quality on everything. Paul was outstanding and Lewis was very knowledgeable on putting in the shower. Highly recommended. Customer Service was great.

We were impressed with the exceptional service provided during our initial consultation with CalCo design. They showed professionalism and outstanding customer service. Moreover, we found their pricing to be fair. Without hesitation, we would suggest CalCo design to anyone seeking kitchen renovation services.

I had been living in a house that hadn’t changed since it was built 36 years ago. Cabinets were collapsing, draws falling out. The kitchen counter was Formica and the kitchen floor linoleum and they were all beat. I was ready for a big change and Calco gave it to me. I interviewed several contractors and got estimates from a few. Calco wasn’t the cheapest, but I knew from the start they were just better. Paul, the chief designer, got me. He understood what I wanted and figured out how to make it work.

We opened up the first floor of the house, moving a laundry to the basement and taking out the walls where it used to be. The kitchen is a dream with Calcutta gold countertops, beautiful Shaker white kitchen cabinets, huge white farmhouse sink and large oven range. The white subway tile ties it all together.

Putting that all together were Drew and Brad. Drew is a master craftsmen in carpentry, plumbing and electrical and he worked wonders turning this old house into something modern. Brad was super helpful and did a fantastic job on the flooring and high baseboards. They were also extremely nice great to have in the house, especially for several months, every weekday. They were also very kind and patient with our dogs, especially our Golden who followed Drew everywhere. I was actually sad when they left, great guys who did amazing work. I’d definitely have them back for the next renovation.
Lisa B.
Paul and Drew are amazing! I absolutely LOVE my new shower!!!! Not only did they do the normal stuff you would expect from a contractor like show up when they said they would, clean up before they left everyday, and complete the job in the time they said they would. But they are artist! They took my vision and brought it to life! The craftsmanship and pride they took in the job is outstanding! I wanted it to look beautiful, but I was also concerned about safety. I have fallen in the shower a few times already and I needed the shower to be safe. Not only did they add the hand grips but Drew took his time and put thought on the placement of the bars. He would have my husband and I get into the shower and see what would work best for us for the placement. Also the bench that they installed is so strong and looks great! I love the shower doors! Everyone said don’t put up glass doors they are so hard to clean. But let me tell you when the doors were installed it just completed the whole project! The products they used is quality, and the price was comparable to the other quotes we received. Every time I take a shower now I feel like I am at a fancy hotel! I highly recommend Paul, Drew, and Calco designs.
Keith E.
Genuine guys with incredible skills. We hired CalCo to redesign and remodel our kitchen and guest bathroom. We absolutely love the way everything turned out. If you are looking for a company that does things the right way you should give CalCo a call. 10/10 recommended them, best contractors in Lancaster!
Peter A.
CalCo did an incredible job remodeling my kitchen. Drew and Paul went above and beyond to make sure the project went as smooth as possible. Their commitment to quality work & materials, cost transparency, and responsive communication sets them apart from other contractors that I have hired in the past. The entire process was nothing short of exceptional and I would highly recommend them to anyone who is interested in a home remodeling project.
H S.
CalCo Design tiled my mudroom and added baseboard. They were professional, communicative and showed up! There were no surprises in the final bill and no setbacks in completion. I recommend, and will call them again.
Joy G.
Calco Design remodeled our master bath and did an amazing job! Can't say enough about the beautiful results and attention that was paid to all the details. Their experience and expertise enabled them to make suggestions along the way that helped both the process and the beautiful results. They were great to work with and Andrew did a great job with cleaning up daily and appreciated his meticulous work on everything. Would definitely recommend Calco Design.
Randy L.
At first, I unfortunately chose the wrong contractor and ended up with an unfinished mess in my house, with open walls, no tile on some floors and half finished electrical work. Yeah, def my worst nightmare!

However, One call to CalCo and Andrew stopped by and carefully evaluated my house situation, was honest and upfront of what needed to be done, how much it would cost. They even made great suggestions that I would have never thought of with additional design aspects! Andrew was all about professionalism and detail; from the precise tile layout & finishing, stonework, woodworking craftsmanship, detailed painting and even thorough cleanup everyday before he left!

The guys from CalCo came to my rescue. They helped give me the renovation I’ve been wanting for 25 years to my tiny row home and did a tremendous job! My only wish I that I called them first.

I highly recommend Paul and Andrew at CalCo! They are an amazing team that are no strangers to the latest styles, product knowledge, design, professionalism & detail.
Robin M
I had an excellent experience using CalCo for a bathroom renovation in Lancaster.

The work itself is impeccable with great attention to detail. Communication was prompt and professional. High quality craftsmanship. Best contractor in Lancaster County!

Signs It's Time for Home Remodeling in Reading, PA

In a place like Reading, where homes range from historic charmers to mid-century builds, it’s not uncommon for homeowners to feel their space no longer suits their needs.

A well-executed remodel can significantly boost your home’s resale value. Kitchens, bathrooms, and finished basements are some of the top areas buyers look at when evaluating a home. Even if you’re not selling right away, added value is a smart long-term investment. Quality home remodeling in Reading, PA ensures you’re building equity while upgrading your space.

Beyond aesthetics and value, remodeling simply makes your home a better place to be. Upgraded materials, improved lighting, and a layout that makes sense can transform the way you feel in your space.
