Don't use them!
Description of Work: Let me just say that this company is so overpriced it's beyond ridiculous. They use high pressure sales pitches and for their best "deal" you have to do it right then. I would never recommend this company to anyone. They also continue to call us about once a month even though we have told them not to.

THIS IS THE ABSOLUTE WORST COMPANY WE HAVE EVER ENCOUNTERED IN OUR 14 YRS OF HOME OWNERSHIP! OUR CONTRACT WAS SIGNED 5/21/04. IT TOOK UNTIL 9/6/04 TO HAVE THE DEMOLITION SCHEDULED. ON THAT DATE THEY DIDN'T SHOW UP OR CALL. WHEN I CALLED THEM, THEY SAID THE TRUCK BROKE DOWN. THIS IS ONE EXAMPLE OUT OF NUMEROUS PROBLEMS WE HAVE HAD FOR A YR. TO DATE 5/2/05 THE JOB IS STILL NOT COMPLETED. LISTED BELOW ARE SOME OF THE PROBLEMS WE'VE HAD. THERE ARE TOO MANY FOR THIS REPORT. CHANGED THE QUALITY OF OUR CABINETS W/O CONSULTING US. THE CABINETS WERE SUPPOSED TO COME IN COMPLETED AND HUNG. WE WERE TOLD IT WOULD ONLY TAKE ABOUT 3 WEEKS TO COMPLETION. INSTEAD THEY GAVE US UNCOMPLETED CABINETS AND STUCK CHEAP LAMINATE ON WITH GLUE. WRONG SIZE ON A FEW CABINET DOORS, WRONG GLASS, CABINETS NOT CENTERED TO WINDOW SURROUNDING IT. WRONG SIZE CABINETS. ALL THESE ITEMS HAD TO BE REORDERED. ONLY WORKED ABOUT 2 HRS A DAY. SOMETIME NO WORK FOR A FEW WEEKS. REALLY BAD CUSTOMER RELATIONS.
Description of Work: COMPLETE REMODEL OF KITCHEN. REPLACED CABINETS AND COUNTERTOP. ORIGINALLY WE ONLY WANTED RESURFACING, BUT THE PROJECT MANAGER SUGGESTED COMPLETE REPLACEMENT. HE SAID THIS WOULD ELIMINATE HAVING ANY BLACK SEAMS SHOWING. ALSO IT WOULD TAKE A LOT SHORTER TIME BECAUSE THE CABINETS WOULD COME IN READY TO HANG. THE CABINETS THEY'VE BUILT US HAVE BLACK SEAMS SHOWING WHICH THEY TRIED TO COVER WITH TRIM. ALSO THE UNDER CABINETS ARE UNFINISHED. THE HEIGHT OF THE CABINETS DIDN'T ALLOW FOR A FACADE TRIM TO BE PUT AROUND THE BOTTOM. TO FILL IN THE BOTTOM THEY WOULD HAVE TO COMPLETELY RE-DO THE LAMINATE WHICH WAS GLUED ON. THERE WERE SO MANY DIFFERENT WORKERS FROM THIS CO. WE LOST COUNT. SHE DOESN'T SEEM TO HAVE A REGULAR CREW. WE HAD A LOT OF UNANSWERED PHONE CALLS AND LATE APPOINTMENTS AND NO SHOWS. THE CUSTOMER RELATIONS ARE INCREDIBLY HORRIBLE. THEY HAD NO REGARD FOR THE INCONVENIENCE TO THE CUSTOMER. THERE ALSO WAS LITTLE OR NO COMMUNICATION BETWEEN THE EMPLOYEES.

I AGREE THAT THIS JOB HAD SEVERAL TECHNICAL DIFFICULTIES AND THE JOB TOOK LONGER THAN EXPECTED TO COMPLETE. AND YES THE MEMBER WAS FRUSTRATED. WE AT NU-COTE ARE NOT SATISFIED JUST COMPLETING A JOB SATISFACTORILY. WE ARE DEDICATED TO TRYING TO ULTIMATELY PLEASE OUR CUSTOMERS. SO IN ADDITION TO COMPLETING THE JOB, WE GAVE THEM FOR FREE A GORGEOUS TINTED ROUNDED UPPER- END GLASS SHELVING UNIT THAT WE HAD CUSTOM MADE JUST FOR THEIR KITCHEN AND POSITIONED STRATEGICALLY AS A FOCAL POINT AT THE ENTRY AREA FOR MAXIMUM VISUAL IMPACT. IT IS A SPECTACULAR ADDITION TO THE KITCHEN AND WAS NOT PART OF THE ORIGINAL CONTRACT. IN SPITE OF THE THE TECHNICAL DIFFICULTIES AND VARIOUS CHALLENGES THE END RESULT IS ONE THAT WE CAN BE PROUD OF.

NO OTHER CONTRACTOR ASKED TO BID. TOOK THEIR TIME. NEW TO THE COMPANY CREWS MOST OF TIME. LONG TIME BETWEEN CREWS. I HAD TO CORRECT WORK DONE AND TO GET IT FINISHED. DID IT MYSELF THEY SENT A LARGE BURLEY MAN OUT TO COLLECT THE FINAL PAYMENT WHEN I SAID I THOUGHT THEY OWED ME $3000. THE KITCHEN IS 10 FT X 12 FT AND I HAD NO SINK FOR THREE MONTHS. I WIRED THE RANGE AND INSTALLED THE PLUMBING FOR THE SINK SO THAT IT WOULD GET DONE SOONER.
Description of Work: REMODELED KITCHEN SINK, RANGE, CORAN COUNTER TOPS, STONE TILE FLOOR, INSTALLED 6 LIGHTS AND A CEILING FAN WITH LIGHT, INSTALLED NEW DOORS AND FINISHED CABINET SIDES. FINISHED, PAINTED WALLS AND CEILING. DAY 1 1ST CREW LEFT AFTER ABOUT 2 HOURS, REMOVING SINK CABINETS AND COUNTER WHEN THEY FOUND A DEAD RAT IN NEST. THEY LEFT-BOARDS WITH NAILS ACROSS THE WALK WAY NEVER TO RETURN. SAID THE SMELL OVERWHELMED THEM. WHEN I CAME IN I COULD NOT SMELL SUCH A BAD ODOR. DAY 7 OR 8 A CABINET MAN ARRIVED TO CONTINUE. HE WAS GOOD WITH CABINETS BUT THE COMPANY FORCED HIM TO DO DEMOLITION AND ELECTRICAL. HE BURIED TWO SPLICES IN THE WALL. I BROUGHT THEM INTO A BOX AND HAVE ACCESS TO THEM NOW. HE FINISHED THE CABINETS. THEY SAID FLOOR WAS NOT SOLID ENOUGH FOR TILE SO I SPENT $2000 SHORING UP THE FLOOR. ANOTHER COUPLE PUT ON DOORS. SEVERAL TRIES TO GET DRAWERS WORKING.
