Los Angeles Hardie Board Installation

Nir is a conscientious contractor and was very responsive. I am happy the way the work eventually turned out but it was a struggle to get what I wanted to have done. From my observation a siding project like this is not something that this company is used to. I also paid 20% additional in change order for a waterproofing issue that, in my opinion, a contractor like Nir should have been aware of or at least aware of the possibility of it being found given that the main reason for this project was because of a waterproofing issue. The change order also included a cosmetic issue that was discussed with my wife and I but never got in the contract. Other things of note: (1) the project took way longer than is should have. This is partly due to a mistake by the Hardie Board supplier, but also, again in my opinion, other preventable matters. I had to consistently follow-up and ask when the next phase was going to start, (2) Nir does not get on ladders or scaffolding. He relied heavily on pictures and my inspection of the work. (3) Nir helped me obtain financing. However, as part of the financing a completion certificate signed by the customer is required. Nir wanted me to sign this document at the beginning of the project and was a little put off that I didn't. (4) the contract calls for leaving the project "broom clean". Just for anyone reading this review this means *ground floor only*. This project created a lot of dust and debris above the ground floor which was not left in "broom clean" condition. Nir thought it odd when I suggested that some get on the roof to clean the debris and to at least give it a blow down. I understand they are not a professional cleaning company but I did not think that this was unreasonable to ask. (5) Nir was extremely surprised when I asked for lien releases at the time of signoff. I think the comment was "I have never been asked for that!". Folks that is the whole point of lien releases - you don't pay the General until you get all the lien releases. Nir is a upstanding contractor and I never was concerned about a mechanics lien but i cant believe that he would be surprised about this request

Victor's team consists of skilled professionals that deliver a final product that is pure artistry. Everyone showed up on time and worked diligently each day. Victor provides a hand's on approach and would visit the work-site at least each morning and at the end of each day. This gave us ample opportunity to discuss the progress and make changes or adjustments as needed. The Team consists of artisans that have been with Victor 15 - 20 years. That says a lot about Victor's management skills and the individual skill level of his employees. There are always unforeseen events and challenges when you pull off the siding of a 1960's home. Victor rolls with the events and works to achieve the optimum outcome. I trust Victor, Scott, Morgan and Jose - they will give you nothing short of perfection. I will gladly hire V.O. Larey for any future work on our home.

I cannot say enough good things about this company. The sales person, Dave was out to the job numerous times to check the progress. I called the office several times with questions and these were addressed immediately. I pointed out a couple of areas that were of concern to me and Dave had the crew redo those sections. The owner of the company, Mike came by the house to check the work as well. I am very pleased with the new look of the house and would and have recommended this company to anyone who wants to replace wood with the Hardy Board product.

It went great. The best part was that the owner, Roland Flores, was extreamly responsive to all our communications, emails, and phone calls. He showed up every morning at about 7AM to talk to us, give his crew directions and ask if we had any issues. One nice thing that Roland requires of his work crews was that the last 30 minutes of each day is spent cleaning up the work area. When the crew leaves, all tools are put away, and the work area are swept clean, and any trash and debris is bagged and stacked out of the way. The total job lasted two weeks and the crew's workmanship was excellent. Everything looks great. Thanks to Fernado, Johnny, Francisco, and Ricardo.

Specialty Siding did a great job from getting the permits to completing the work. They always showed up on time, worked hard for long hours, and cleaned up the site every day. Extremely professional. I can't get over how incredible the house looks now. The closer I look at the work they did, the more impressed I am. The Hardie siding is definitely high-grade and rock solid. They re-routed the exterior wires on my house (cable TV, etc.) and hid them neatly. They did everything they said they would do, on time and on budget. Very, very happy with them.

Shaunak and his team are fantastic. They worked endlessly on our behalf to get us what we needed at a price that was fair. For the things they don't do outright, Shauank has connections for just about anything we needed. In a world of no-shows and price gouging contractors HX is a rare find.

The carpentry and painting were done very professionally and looks amazing. Everything about this was done cleanly and with utmost respect to my property. The crew worked non-stop and I could barely hear any noise. Looking forward to hiring Roger and his team again in the future.

It went great. Jared is very informative and helpful. Offered advice in the areas I was unsure of. His guys showed up early each day, cleaned up at the end of each day and We're very happy. We are now having them re stucco and paint our exterior. I highly recommend.

The folks at Specialty Siding were very responsive and professional. The installers did a very good job. That said, the work was done be another contractor working for specialty siding. Knowing this I might have hired the installing contractor, whom I had previously dealt with directly, and saved the overhead.

We installed Vinyl Siding in the front of our house. Raoul, our installer was very meticulous with each stage of construction. Mark was terrific in supporting our design needs and communicating these needs to his crew. I highly recommend this company.

SAE Builders (Scott Egbert) was hired to install 6 new replacement windows and replacement exterior siding. Scott and crew removed 500 sq. ft old wood siding on exterior walls, old windows and old wood trim around windows. Installed 1/2and quot; plywood sheet, moisture wrap and new Hardie-Plank Siding. Installed Hardi-Plank trim around some windows where necessary. Windows installed were; 3 each nail-in and 3 each retrofit windows Delivered quality result despite several errors made by the window factory chosen by owner. These factory errors caused problems which SAE identified. SAE made necessary corrections w/ factory to make sure the project was completed on-time. Scott worked with factory to re-make 2 of the windows measured wrong and written up wrong by factory rep and had them deliver correct windows within 2 days to keep job on-track. SAE made corrections to unforeseen problems he found when he removed siding installed by original builder. The original home builder (starts with a and quot;Cand quot; and ends with and quot;Xand quot;) installed only 50% of the required fiberglass insulation in the walls covered by the old siding removed / scheduled for replacement by SAE. Scott bought the insulation required to fill empty wall cavities in this area and installed it at no additional charge. In addition, he replaced 3 roof tiles that were cracked in error by his crew promptly. SAE cleaned up with vacuum inside house where required by their installation. SAE delivered a quality job that looks great. I am planning on using Scott again on future projects.

We were so happy with the work done at our house! I very picky and they did flawless work. Thank you so much!

I cannot recommend Ron Schwartz and Halo Construction strongly enough. Our house is beautiful and the work completed is without a doubt the best and the most complete and professional job anyone could ask for. Ron's crew of workers were amazing, working hard to make sure that everything was done perfect. Ron was here everyday to ensure that all was going to plan, that we were satisfied with the work that was completed and all our questions answered. Ron's estimate was accurate, there were no surprises at the end of the work. Ron's treated the work on our house as though he was doing the work on his own house. We have received many compliments on our house and we feel like it is the prettiest in the neighborhood. Anyone looking for contruction or work on their house would I am sure be happy with Halo Construction Group and Ron Schwartz's team. Out of 5 stars he gets 10.

They did a wonderful Job! The siding on the house looks great! The staff at Approved were very responsive and their workers who installed the siding were courteous and respectful of our property. They worked hard & Finished the job ahead of schedule.

THEY OBTAINED ALL THE NECESSARY PERMITS. STATED THE WORK WOULD BE DONE IN THREE DAYS AND IT WAS COMPLETED ON TIME. VERY COURTEOUS AND PROFESSIONAL. WOULD USE THEM AGAIN.
