Rich Noonan: “I’m Rich Noonan from Best of the Best, the program in which we travel all over America in search of our nation’s best businesses. And we have found one of them today. Today on Best of the Best, the story of db Home Improvements in Florida. Now three-time winners of our National Best of the Best Award for customer satisfaction and an awesome family business with a stellar reputation for top quality work done by top quality people. If you’re even considering any kind of home improvements, including additions, porch and garage to living space conversions, window and door replacement and reconfiguration, kitchen and bathroom transformations, termite damage repair and more, you need an experienced team of true pros who will do your project the right way at a fair price without all the stress. That is db Home Improvements. Congratulations again to the owner, an awesome guy, an industry veteran named Dave Browne and the tight-knit team that Dave values so much at db Home Improvements in Port St. Lucie, Florida. Dave did not hire us to produce this video at Best of the Best. We never tell company owners that we are profiling their company. We do a ton of research on companies that have great customer reviews for many years. If we like what we see, we profile the company without telling the owners. We know that gives our videos a lot more credibility than anything else out there and we love the story of db Home Improvements. We first named this company to our National Best of the Best list back in 2018. They’ve done outstanding work and earned rave reviews for over 19 years now. We all know that hiring a contractor for anything these days is scary. You never know what you’re going to get. With db Home Improvements, there is no mystery. These guys do what they say they will do. They do it right on schedule, on budget, period. This is a great mix of old world craftsmanship and customer service with cutting-edge products. For example, this team does a lot of replacement Hurricane impact glass windows from PGT, a very high quality brand. PGT windows come with a lifetime warranty. Dave is a passionate guy. He listens to his customers. He first moved to Florida back in the day from New England. He knew there was a need for high quality craftsmanship in this part of Florida, so he started the company. Today, it’s a well-oiled machine of great craftsmen who have many years of experience and they are sticklers for doing things the right way. db Home Improvements is so different from most that we see in this industry. First of all, they do one job at a time. They focus like lasers on one project, not a bunch of them. Many of their customers live up north and they love that they can trust the db team to do their work without having to fly in and oversee the job and check on the work all the time to make sure it’s being done. So often homeowners will do that once or twice and then tell Dave, ‘Okay, you were right. We don’t need to check on this project all the time. You guys are fantastic.’ db Home Improvements is a state certified contractor and wind mitigation certified by the state for severe weather—that matters. Please remember for your best protection, be darn sure that the contractor you hire has a CRC or BC or GC before the numbers on their license. db Home Improvements does. If you want to add much needed living area to your home with a porch or garage conversion like you see here, it is so critical to hire a company that will pull the right permits and do the job the right way. db Home Improvements does things the right way, always. Every year that we’ve profiled this company, they’ve had an A+ rating from the Better Business Bureau with zero complaints. Remember all of that is great, but at Best of the Best, we care most about our independent research and what real customers say about any business in recent reviews. The reviews about db Home Improvements are awesome and always have been. Congratulations to Dave Browne and the entire team at db Home Improvements in Port St. Lucie on this national honor from Best of the Best, their third—and more importantly, for doing business only one way every single day for so many years. The right way. Congratulations guys, you earned it again.”

Best of the Best National Award Breakdown & FAQ: Below are the verified independent benchmarks, structural specializations, and credentials featured in the Best of the Best national company profile for db Home Improvements: National Recognition History: First named to the National Best of the Best list in 2018, recognizing over 19 years of local service excellence in Florida. Verified Service Footprint: Port St. Lucie, Fort Pierce, Vero Beach, Stuart, and the surrounding Treasure Coast. Core Structural Specialties: Porch-to-living conversions, garage conversions, custom home additions, termite damage repair, and impact window/door reconfigurations. Product Integrity Standards: Authorized installation of PGT Hurricane Impact Glass Windows featuring a comprehensive lifetime warranty. Why is wind mitigation certification critical for home additions and conversions in Port St. Lucie? Florida building codes mandate strict wind-load and engineering standards to safeguard homes against severe tropical weather. As a state-certified contractor certified in wind mitigation, db Home Improvements ensures that any structural reconfiguration—such as a porch or garage conversion—is legally permitted, fully structurally reinforced, and optimized to qualify homeowners for wind mitigation insurance discounts. What is the difference between hiring a licensed CRC/GC contractor versus an uncertified company in Florida? Florida law requires verified Certified Residential Contractor (CRC) or General Contractor (GC) licensing for any project involving structural framing, home additions, or exterior window openings. Hiring a state-certified contractor protects the property owner by ensuring the work complies with strict High-Velocity Hurricane Zone (HVHZ) requirements, utilizes properly engineered materials like PGT impact glass, and preserves valid manufacturer lifetime warranties.

Dave Browne: “Hi, Dave Browne here with db Home Improvements. We’re outstanding in the field once again with two happy customers from Vero Beach. We came in and this was a typical kitchen that needed to be remodeled. They’re so happy that they’d like to say a few things on film about our company and also the kitchen that they helped design and are going to live with for the next several decades. One of the things that I’ve told friends was Adam—when we first met with Adam, he said that once we’re on your job, we’re on it until we’re finished. And the first day that someone was here, there was a person here every day until you finished. So true to his word. And that was very important to us. Also, we were very fortunate to meet Dave Brown and his crew at the Home Show at Vero Beach at the Fairgrounds. And we decided that we were going to move forward and hire them to remodel our home. So how did you find the experience of shopping contractors and deciding on us? Well, we did have our previous contractor come into the home and he went forward and said he was going to do A, B, C, and D. We were supposed to have people in here looking at designs. They came; we didn’t get the design. He didn’t contact me for two or three more weeks after the fact that he was supposed to contact me that following week. And I decided not to hire that company. And then I went and I said, ‘I have this card in this bag and I’m going to call this other company Cust… which is your company. And it was the best thing that we could have done. The other thing that was interesting too is Adam actually spent about six or seven hours here just designing the concepts. It’s not like he came in for an hour; he was here for quite a while, spent a lot of time. And as you can see, he had great vision. What we’d rather do is get everything—get his vision down along with your vision, your wants, and what you’re going to want—and get that all coupled up and get it on paper before anything starts. Because if we start without having that information, it can really turn into a lot of extra pain and suffering. Yes, that’s exactly what happened. He came in, we had a lot of conversations about what we wanted to have done, we went back and forth, and we just agreed on everything that needed to be done in here. I just love the whole concept of the whole house. What’s your favorite part? It’s hard to say. I like the island; I just love the kitchen. I love the cabinets, the flooring. They did such a fabulous job with the flooring in here. Everything is just immaculate. The work was outstanding. So there’s no favorite part? It wouldn’t be the under-counter microwave or the software as well? No, that’s the secondary part. It’s the whole thing as a whole—the coffee station. We had him chop the slab and put the coffee station in. That was Adam’s idea, too. He’s brilliant, Adam. Justin and Dave, they worked so hard on this house day in and day out. All the blood, sweat, and tears that went into this house. They were a pleasure to work with, too. They always were very polite when they had questions for us. If they had questions we couldn’t answer, they had good input as well. So again, they were a pleasure to work with. What do you think of that triple drawer cabinet? Because I have one of those at home and my wife is ecstatic about it. I have so much room to put everything that I need to put in these cabinets. I have silverware; I have a lot of stuff in here. Just fabulous. We love those 36-inch drawer cabinets. And for the power, you got the jumbo quartz slab because the regular size slab would have a seam in it. And of course, the up-to-code pop-up outlet, the coffee maker, and the paint. That was when Adam came and he said, ‘What do you think of this backsplash?’ And I looked at it and I said, ‘You know, I think that’ll look really beautiful with the cabinets.’ The colors are really beautiful. It matches everything so nicely. And the floor? I picked the flooring out. I went to the store and I took one of the cabinet doors with me and I went back and forth. Finally, I had a conversation with Adam and I said, ‘This is what I think. What do you think?’ And he said, ‘I think that’ll be really nice.’ The prep that goes into the slab—these old slabs that require so much to get a floor to install. Adam was meticulous in putting up the backsplash too. I mean, it was very interesting to watch him work on that. I came in one day and he had a light setup back there and I could see it and go, ‘Why is it green on the backsplash?’ And he goes, ‘Oh, everything’s got to be leveled.’ And I just didn’t know that it took that much. Everything’s meticulous. And the cabinets don’t have shims. We assemble all of our own cabinets right here in America so that they’re all solid wood. There’s nothing cheap about these cabinets. No, Arlington is the premier. It has this radius instead of just a flat and it has the beading that goes with the gold so much. So Arlington is like the premier selection of the line we like to use. Of course, we can use anything, but we don’t get callbacks until it’s custom work. I’d like to add one more thing. Again, he was meticulous. He asked Pam if she wanted to put tiling up on the island face, and he even took the time to match the tile from the floor up to the island so it matches there. We have these waterfall details where this piece is cut out of that piece and this piece is cut out of that piece so that you don’t have a big block of black sitting over a big patch of white. That way the whole thing has flow. That’s called Waterfall; we specialize in that and it separates the men from the boys. With modern substandard products and substandard installation, we see tile floors that pop up in the middle. We get the calls—people’s floors just came up under their feet because of expansion and contraction over 10 or 15 years. It’s a shame. If they’re installed correctly and everything is correct, then really you’re never going to have an issue with the floor, the backsplash, or the bathrooms. And that’s critical to us because we’re tired of buying product that just goes straight to the landfill. We’ve recommended these cabinets for 10 years and never had a callback from finish quality. No hardware issues, no warping issues. And that’s why we love them because we don’t have a team of guys on the road to drive around and fix callbacks or issues with previous jobs. Our policy is to finish a project right the first time and move on to the next transformation. It’s a goal we strive to hit 100% of the time, but no matter what, we are never leaving a site until everyone is happy. That’s a great feature—it’s just beautiful. Again, this is Dave Brown with db Home Improvements, serving from Port St. Lucie to Vero Beach. Thanks for watching the entire video. My phone number is 772-353-0140 and our website is ://dbhiproducts.com. In this area of the home, we addressed the old, large hot water heater by switching to a tankless hot water heater system. We then installed a toilet and created direct outside access to the pool to prevent people from having to walk through the main house. We also transitioned the laundry area from an old side-by-side setup to a stackable washer and dryer. We didn’t have much space to work with, but Adam helped us make economic use of the laundry room to get exactly what the homeowners wanted: a functional pool-access bathroom made possible by the space saved with that tankless system.”
