About Renewal solutions

In a world where contractors disappear mid-project and take months to finish what should take weeks, we built Renewal Solutions to be the exact opposite.

Scroll down to discover our values and why homeowners across Monmouth, NJ, recommend us.

Welcome to A Remodeling Experience That Feels Like Progress

Hi, I’m Thomas Cougan, owner of Renewal Solutions: firefighter, father of four, and someone who had to rebuild his own life before he ever rebuilt homes. Most homeowners we meet feel the same way: anxious, unsure who to trust, and worried this project will turn into a drawn-out mess.

That’s why this company exists. Because you deserve a team that shows up when they say they will. That keeps you in the loop. That finishes the job without disappearing halfway through.

This is the kind of remodeling experience I wanted for my own family. So I built a company that delivers it for you.

My family and I really recommend the Renewal Solutions team. We had them come in to repair water damage in a few different rooms in our house and we just have to say Joey, Tom, their dads and the whole crew were awesome.

The work was done in a timely fashion and they were super easy to communicate with and answer all questions.

The crew was very respectful and worked around my disabled dad and did a perfect job cleaning up every room and keep all the work neat and tidy.

Very great attention to details! We definitely will use this company again in the future!

Easily the best contractor experience we’ve had since moving to NJ. Tom had great ideas, gave us a good price and the entire job was complete in like two weeks of initially meeting.

The shower remodel was down from head to toe and cleaned up.

We will definitely be using Renewal Solutions again and I highly recommend them if you’re looking for someone to take care of a project in it’s entire scope

The Values That Keep Us Grounded And Keep Your Project on Track

Remodeling isn’t just about the build; it’s about the people doing the building. Their mindset. Their standards. Their word. At Renewal Solutions, our values shape every decision we make, from the way we answer your calls to the quality of the final walkthrough. Here’s what drives us and what you can expect when you hire us.

F

Faith: We lead with purpose, not profit. That means you get a team grounded in trust, guided by something bigger, and fully committed to doing right by you. You’ll never feel like just another job on the list because for us, your project carries real meaning.

I

Integrity: You’ll always know where things stand. We keep our word, communicate clearly, and show you exactly what’s being done. When surprises pop up (and they do), we’ll bring the solution before you have to ask.

R

Resilience: Remodeling rarely goes perfectly, but with us, you’ll never feel stranded. We handle problems quickly, stay calm under pressure, and make sure things keep moving. So even when challenges hit, you can count on steady progress and a team that’s got your back.

E

Excellence: You’re not hiring handymen. You’re hiring craftsmen. Every cut, tile, and finish is done with care because we want you to walk into your home and feel proud. That means fewer fixes later, and a result that still looks good five, ten, fifteen years from now.

S

Service: We treat your home like it’s our own… and you like someone we’ve known for years. From answering your calls to keeping your space clean, we’re here to make the process easier on your family. You’ll feel supported, heard, and taken care of from day one.

You Don’t Earn Someone’s Trust by Talking; You Earn It by Showing Up

Our Clients Don’t Just Leave Reviews. They Stay in Touch

Letting someone into your home takes trust. And around here, trust isn’t earned with fancy sales pitches; it’s earned by doing what we said we would. Showing up on time. Picking up the phone. Leaving your space cleaner than we found it. That’s what our clients remember.

[…] From the very beginning, Tom was professional, knowledgeable and responsive. They showed up every day and always came ready to work hard and make progress.

I never had to worry about anything while they were working because I knew I could count on them to get the job done right.
They always listened to what we had to say and what we wanted to be done.

They genuinely care about their customers and their satisfaction.

I highly recommend Renewal Solutions to anyone looking to get work done!

Reliable, works with you to create a better version of your vision.

Once the job starts, it continues until finished. They work within your budget.

They turned my basement from a space only used for storage into a modern-day livable space for my growing family.

Thanks to them, we now have another living room in the house that’s safe and where we can create new memories!

First off lemme talk about true honesty!

Tommy Cougan and his crew are absolute gentlemen!

My man cave is absolutely hands down my spot to be because of Tommy’s ideas and design.

The custom cabinet touch was spot on. The extra large is even better.

I can’t say enough about this company — honest, dedicated, and true to their word.

Thank you!
