Welcome to the inspiring story of Maribeth and her grandmother’s house. This story is one that holds a special place in our hearts. After her uncle’s passing, Maribeth inherited her grandmother’s house and felt it was time for a change. The house had seen generations of memories, and she wanted to honor her grandmother’s legacy while giving it a modern touch.
That is when she found us – Matrix Company Solutions Corp. We were delighted to join Maribeth on her renovation journey, and her testimonial beautifully showcases the magic that happens when sentimentality meets innovation in a home renovation project. As a trusted general contractor in Philadelphia, we take pride in helping people like Maribeth turn their houses into spaces they can truly call home.

Choosing Matrix: The Initial Contact
The beginning of any journey is important, and the first contact with Maribeth was truly touching. When she reached out to us, she shared the story of her grandmother’s house and her desire to make it a home once again. During our conversation, Maribeth shared everything she expected from a home renovation. From the moment our General Manager, Rob, met her, he knew this project was something special. Maribeth recalls, “From the day Rob first came and we talked, the amount of professionalism and the design process explanation stood out to me.” Our transparency and thorough explanation of the design process gave her confidence in our ability to bring her vision to life. We, at Matrix, value such meaningful connections with our clients.
Let’s Talk About the Design
The plan was to renovate the kitchen, bathroom, and living area. As a trusted general contractor in Philadelphia, we know how important it is for clients to picture their home renovation before it begins. That is why, after talking with Maribeth and understanding all her wishes, we created detailed 3D designs of the proposed renovation. In Figures 2 and 3 you can see samples of our 3D designs. Maribeth happily shared, “The 3D designs were fantastic, and I could finally see how my house would transform!” Once Maribeth confirmed she loved the designs, we were all set to begin the renovation!

Working Together
When Maribeth chose to stay on-site during the home renovation, it added some complexity to the project. But you know what? We saw it as a chance to connect with her and make sure we met all her needs. Our team put in a lot of effort to provide her with the necessary facilities and comforts for everyday living. Throughout the entire project, open communication was our top priority, and Maribeth loved how we kept her informed every step of the way. “Living here during the construction could have been tough, but Matrix made it easy. I wasn’t working around them. They were working around me.” she said.

Keeping the Memories Alive
One of our main goals was to preserve the sentimental value of Maribeth’s house. We have been a general contractor in Philadelphia for more than 25 years, we know how important it is to preserve what truly matters to our clients. For Maribeth, we were determined to keep certain items, like her grandmother’s stove (see Figure 5). So, we took extra care and made sure to incorporate the stove in the new design. Maribeth was thrilled with the result. This attention to detail allowed us to honor Maribeth’s family history while giving the space a perfect mix of old memories and modern touches.

Staying on Budget and Schedule
As a responsible general contractor in Philadelphia, we know sticking to the budget and schedule is an important consideration. For Maribeth, this was a big concern, and she was truly grateful for how we handled it. Here is Maribeth’s testimonial in this regard:
“When we signed the contracts, I had to wait for the money due to my uncle’s passing and settling the estate. But Matrix completely understood and was okay with it. Once I gave them the initial deposit, things started smoothly. Of course, you can’t predict everything in a renovation, so you can’t set an exact schedule for each task. But I have to say, for the most part, things went as planned. There were no long gaps between finishing one part and starting the next. It all flowed really well. Sometimes, there might have been a day or two delay, or I remember once something came up at another location and the workers had to go there, so they were a bit late. But I always got a phone call if there was any delay. Overall, the whole process went pretty smoothly and everything was handled efficiently by the team.”
More Than Just a Home Renovation in Philadelphia
At Matrix, we believe that home renovation is not just about the work; it is about the people and their stories. For us, forming real connections with our clients is a top priority, and Maribeth’s testimonial truly captures this. Here is what she had to say about her experience with us: “During the renovation journey with Matrix, I actually felt like I had made new friends along the way.”
The relationships that Maribeth built with our team went beyond the typical client-contractor dynamic. She felt a genuine connection with us, and these new friendships had a lasting impact. As she put it, “When everything was done, I was almost sad that it was over. I felt like I had met a bunch of new friends, and I wouldn’t be seeing them anymore.”
Throughout all these years working as a general contractor in Philadelphia, we have always valued human connection and tried to make our clients feel like they are part of our extended family.
The Amazing Renovated Home
When all was done, Maribeth could not have been happier with the final outcome. As she put it in her testimonial, “The work on the kitchen and bathroom was absolutely phenomenal!” She was especially thrilled with the renovated kitchen and bathroom. And you know what? We were so happy to have such a satisfied client. At Matrix, nothing brings us more joy than knowing we have renovated a home that our clients truly love.
