Client Testimonials

Just completed a nine month complete condo renovation with Revive Properties. Jake and employees were awesome while completing the project. We live three hours away from Destin and Jake was always keeping us updated and informed on the project with pictures, videos, texts and phone calls. He was always available and accessible. Most of all he was always optimistic about any surprises that came up during renovations. The renovation is beautiful and I would highly recommend Jake and Revive Properties to anyone and would certainly employ their services and expertise again. Thank you Jake and Revive Properties.

Earl and Debbie Folsom

We have been remodeling our home several times over the last 3 years from a new laundry room, an extended driveway and two bathrooms. When we started our kitchen remodel we were nervous from past experience. This was our first experience with Revive and Jake Armstrong. They surpassed all of our worries and eliminated much of the issues we had experienced in the past. Jake keep us updated weekly on progress and also let us know what the plan was for the following week. As in the past we experienced hollow promises and meaningless updates. Revive not only showed up and did the work as promised and planned but surpassed expectations by exceeding planned improvements and progress. With the issues around Covid and supply chain, Revive often had to replan or make last minute changes which not only kept the remodel moving forward but kept us informed also. Our kitchen remodel was functional before Christmas as promised and there was never a time that I was misinformed or not updated with changes as the remodel progressed. We are so grateful for the guys who work for Revive and can not thank Jake enough for making our kitchen remodel as painless and beautiful as possible. We have already engaged with them for our last bathroom addition planned for the coming fall.

I picked Jake and his crew from Revive by looking at photos and reviews from other homeowners, so I hope this review gives you the confidence to hire Revive for your next project. My project was a complete floor to ceiling renovation of a beach condo. Jake was a great communicator. He listened to what I needed for my renovation, put it in writing, helped me stick to my budget and told me up front how long it would take to complete ( and accomplished it). His crew was professional, personable and respectful. Jake clearly communicated with me thru text, e-mail, phone calls and sent pictures and videos to show me the progress because I live out of state. I would absolutely recommend Revive to anyone who wants quality workmanship, dependability and someone who will keep your project moving forward. I would not hesitate to call this company for future projects.

Our experience with Revive Properties Jake Armstrong went above and beyond our expectations! Not only did he help our vision come to life in the complete renovation of our beach condo, but he made the process so easy! Not living in the area, communication was so important and Jake’s communication during the process was exceptional. He and his crew covered every area of our want list, were trustworthy, provided quality work and on time! By the end of the project, Jake felt like a family member and we love our updated condo!
