Athens Shed Remodel

Warne Construction will be building a garage with apartment for me starting soon. I look forward to my continued association with this fine group of people.

Was able to do as much or as little as I wanted online.  I shopped, figured out exactly what I wanted, and placed an order.  25% deposit.  I had gravel delivered, as instructed by Brian Miller.  They built the shed in modules in the shop and arrived with a pick up truck and a trailer.  They dug out the area and used the gravel to fill it for drainage.  Then they assembled the modules, put on doors, shingles, etc.  I really liked these guys.  Trust them and they do good work.  I don't know where I would have found a better value.  All I had to do was order gravel and tell them where I wanted it!

Bob was on time and was pretty cool. Everything looked great when he was done. I will use him again if I break another ankle!

I had an old shed on my property that was delapidated and falling apart. My girlfriend decided that it needed to go, and she wanted a place to sit outside. So she decided a gazebo would fit the bill. We spent a little time with the contractor (Ryan) and came up with a nice design that we both liked. Ryan and his crew came in and removed the old shed and cleaned up everything very nicely. Then started framing up the floor in the first day. The second day they had everything framed up including the roof. Then on the third day as promised they shingled the roof, and even went as far as hanging the swing, which wasn't even part of the contract. We really loved the fact that Ryan and his crew took the extra time to make sure everything was as promised, and even went beyond the contract.

Responded quickly to phone calls. Always arrived on time. Maintained a very tidy work environment. Materials estimates were very accurate which meant fewer incidental trips to the lumber yard and no material to return at the end of the job. Aaron is also a boat builder and the attention to detail required by that craft comes through in his construction projects. Visible joints that would normally be lapped were mitered to protect end-grain and improve appearance. All lines are straight, square and plumb making finishing work easier. He seems to have a thorough knowledge of good construction methods and best practices.

Fabulous!!! You're going to think I am a family member after reading my review. I'm not. I am someone who is very wary of contractors. I've had people come to my home in the past and do a poor job or be less than trustworthy. I had gotten to the point where I figured I could screw something up myself and I could do it for free so why pay someone??? Well, I have a friend who used Greg Hughes Handyman & Home Improvement in the past and really likes his work. I saw their reviews on Angie's List and nervously gave them a try. Greg came to my house and gave me a great price to build me a new deck with a 10x10 sub deck for a hot tub. I choose him because his price and availability were good. He and James removed the old 10x10 deck, propping up the aluminum awning that also needed repair. They built a rock solid deck (my horses can walk across it) exactly how imagined it, only better. The "better" came from details like installing a handrail down the steps, trimming it out and angling the ends of handrail, running the wood from the steps right into the 10x10 pad to avoid a seam between the deck and the steps, and installing boards across the bottom (because I dislike the lattice) all without me asking! They also repaired the aluminum awning and replaced split gutter and ran it off the deck. They did several things other than the deck. Multiple interior and exterior electrical projects were tackled with ease and professionalism. A sanitary hydrant that has not worked properly since a PLUMBING COMPANY installed it (Mr. Plummer, Circleville) now works as it should have all along. They repaired an aluminum awning and replaced the gutter that attaches to it. They also installed duct work which should have been installed when the house was built. The final chapter was a power wash of the deck and a clean up of the site. There are things about this contractor that make him better than most. Quality is superior. Price is fair and reasonable. Greg Hughes will clearly tell you if a task is not within their expertise instead of going ahead and doing something sub par. They are very trustworthy (I had no problem leaving the house open when I left for work) and considerate. An example of being considerate: they dug some holes while I was at work. When I came home each hole was clearly marked so I would not step in any of the holes. Honestly, I have never had a contractor behave in these ways. By the time all was finished I really felt that my experience of the process was important to Greg. It is really nice to know that you don't have to be wealthy to get great work and be treated really well. Thank you Greg, and James, for everything you did.
