"We hired McCormick Home Builders to remodel our living room, and we are beyond pleased with the result. The team was professional, worked efficiently, and Aris design ideas made a huge difference. The room feels so much brighter and more spacious. This was the best decision we made for our home, and we were already planning our next remodel with them."

"The job went very well, from the initial walk-through of the landscape clean up project through the planning and execution of the work. Jorge understood our needs, offered suggestions, was very knowledgeable and professional and prompt and on time in all phases of the project. The landscape cleanup involved over 40 hours of labor. We felt the total cost was quite reasonable. His team continues to provide monthly maintenance services."

"I would definitely recommend Thomas Parks. He and his team arrived on time, and completed the job of cleaning my gutters in a most professional and respectful manner. Mr. Parks explained to me in detail all of what he would be doing and why. He even went above and beyond. (Note: It was Mr. Parks who originally installed some of my ground gutters more than a decade ago.)
After doing business with Mr. Parks that day, I hired him to do my Roof Waterproofing with Kool-Seal Coating. Again, I was very pleased with Mr. Parks' work. I would enthusiastically hire him again for future work on my house. In fact, he and I have talked about putting a new roof on my shed out back. Thank you, Thomas Parks. I look forward to working with you again soon.

"I have used Reiko plumbing many times in the past. I was very satisfied with all aspects of their work. The labor charge was $75/hour.
In the last month they offered to change my garbage disposal for $778.42. There would not breakdown the cost of labor and replacement parts. I went to Home Depot and brought a top of the line InSinkErator for $223.00. I replaced the garbage disposal unit myself in 30 minutes.
I think it unprofessional to not divulge the cost of the replacement parts and their labor costs are unjustified.

"not that great. basically paid $99 to get an estimate. included cleaning roof and minimal repairs. took a while to get appointment, and then when they came, they didn't even do the work! gave a really big estimate and then re-seheduled to have someone else do the work. they wouldn't totally replace the roof, gave different estimates to repair, I went with a different company to do a full roof rplacement."
