"Mike and his crew were a pleasure to work with. They were very professional, friendly, and went above and beyond to ensure the process went smooth as possible and that our covered patio turned out exactly how we wanted it. They were very knowledgeable and paid close attention to detail to ensure everything was perfect and to our liking. We are planning to remodel more of our house in the future. We will be using Cahaba Building Group again because of how much we enjoyed working with them and how great of a job they performed. We highly recommend them to anyone who is wanting to remodel their home!"

"I was very happy with them at the beginning but was more irritated than happy with them at the end. The two workers that did the demo, carpentry and painting were excellent. The guy that did the tile did okay with the tile but I found a place in the shower floor that was filled with caulk. It came out when I was cleaning and left a hole in the grout. There were several things they did at the end that I thought were sloppy. The supervisor told me to and quot;trust him and quot; and go ahead and pay him and he would come back the next work day and install the insulation that I paid for and I still haven't heard back after more than a month. I had someone else fix the things that were not right or undone.

"Exterior Waterproofing, Philip Madden and his crew, are superb contractors. They are not cheap, but their price is fair and reasonable for the work they do and it is a pleasure working with them. They are one of the few contractors I've hired who have done the work on schedule, on time, at the highest quality and at the agreed upon cost. I heartily recommend them to anyone needing waterproofing work. Scott Williams [email protected]"

"When my husbands work schedule changed allowing him to complete the work, Al was flexible about the change. I called and spoke to Al and he was gracious and understanding. Al performed everything as discussed and kept me informed as we went along. While the work was not needed, his service is great! I kept his card and plan to call him with future jobs."

"Very professional. The work was exceptional. I would highly recommend them to anyone looking for a remodel."

"Ken was very knowledgeable about our problems.  We asked him about several issues; some needed fixing and some did not.  I respect his opinions.  Our major issue was a two story wall that was sagging because it was built between floor joists.  We had an extra joist and supports installed.  The workmen were courtious and effecient.  Our floor feels very stable now.

"Collins was great to work with. He finished on time and on budget. We couldn’t be happier."

"The work has been done very well. He does a very good job, he goes above and beyond, when he’s done he walks around with you to show you his work and if there is anything wrong he asks me to point it out and he fixes it with no problem."

"It was done in a timely manner and I was very pleased with the results.
