"Margaret is artist, repaired 8â x12â curved glass piece in a 4â x6â window 10 feet in the air above our front door. While others told me the window would have to be removed, taken to shop, disassembled, repaired and reinstalled with costs as high as $3000. Margaret did the job for far, far, far less! Margaret, thanks again, Mel"

"Nate did an excellent job replacing a broken window pane. He was prompt, responded to my questions and emails quickly, and was very efficient. I requested a quote from Angie's List on a Sunday afternoon, and the broken window glass was replaced less than 24 hours later. The glass that needed to be replaced was frosted and textured. I sent him a picture of the glass, and he was able to match it perfectly. The new pane is an exact match -- it looks perfect. I highly recommend Nate from Different Group Glass."

"Did a good job initially. Did not install small plugs that cover the screws holding the window to the frame. Failed to respond to come back and do it. Some cosmetic drawback to their good job. Weak customer services!"

"GoodFellas did the master and guest bathroom in our home. My wife and I are expecting a child in Nov and wanted to get as much work done on the house before the baby was born. GoodFellas was able to finish the work in a timely matter and exceed expectations. Even though the company is handling multiple jobs at a time, they are able to make us feel like were the only ones, giving us complete attention when needed. They aren't cutting corners so it is well priced for the quality you get. Our project manager was there when we needed him including picking out the tile, glass and marble.

"It went fine Sales guy was on time ,explained the products and cost with on going prmotoon Only thing I did not like was he took out on the street to show window so the other neighbor can see it like advertising while doing presentation"

"Manuel showed up on-time. His work can be characterized by the following: 1. Careful with his repairs (put down protective paper, takes his time in approaching the problem to minimize damage to surroundings when removing doors, frames, etc.) 2. Communicative. When he ran into unexpected hurdles, he found me and explained what he will try to do. 3. Problem solver. My repair jobs involved dealing with original doors, windows, and hardware of a 1930s house. Manuel had to come up with solutions to fix my problems without replacing or compromising the doors and windows. The only complaint I have was that the work took much longer than he estimated (6 hours instead of 3). The jobs were more challenging than he anticipated. With that said, he actually worked closer to 8 hours but charged me for 6. I will hire him again for other jobs around the house but will ask for more accurate time assessment (for his and my sake)."

"Excellent craftsmanship. Very reasonable price. Quote was right on target. New bathroom floor tiling. New extended glass shower enclosure with all new tiling floor to ceiling. New lighting and vanity with sink and custom fixtures."

"Having done numerous home projects over the past 20 years with and without contractors, I knew a complete bathroom remodel would take a lot of coordination between subs, so my wife and I decided to hire a contractor for this project.  We hired an architect several years prior to draw up plans for our remodel and we had done plenty of research on which items we would purchase. We weren’t doing anything extraordinary, just replace tub, vanity, tiles, repaint and remove shower to make room for a stacked washer & ventless dryer.  I had been on my building’s board of directors for the past 6 years, so I knew exactly what needed to be done to ensure condo and code compliance. Unfortunately, it didn’t go as smoothly as it could have.
In case you don’t want to read all the details:In summary, Rani, the owner, is a nice guy who communicates well.  Unfortunately, the people he subcontracts work to aren’t necessarily highly skilled. For our remodel, the electrician did very good work, the plumber did average work, the tile person did good work on the floor, but horrible work on the wall, and the supervisor was below average. The main overall problem was the workers’ lack of detail. While I would not use Inception again, I think they’d do an acceptable job for most people on simple projects or for “fix & flip” people who plan on selling their home right away.
The details:From the very beginning, instructions were missed. We requested several times to create a plastic barrier to block off the living room to limit the amount of dust that would go on my desk/computer area, TV, couch, etc. They said no problem, but it never happened. Also, our HOA requires that no supplies be left in the hallway after 6pm during the week or over the weekend, but 2x4s, metal pieces and runners were left out there multiple times.
The main problems started after demolition. The tile guy did a very good job on the floor with the Italian tiles, but did a horrible job with the white subway wall tiles. One evening, I came home to find that he used the wrong color grout – I had specified the exact color to be used and wrote it down in several places, but he ended up using a much darker color because it was in stock at Home Depot. So, I was happy when he redid it with the correct color, but then horrified when I realized that he grouted all the corners – expansion joints should be caulked, otherwise the grout will crack right away. And that’s exactly what happened after 1 day!  The tile guy came back to fix, but instead of cutting out the grout and applying caulk, he just caulked over the grout…with the wrong color!  At this point, I was done with the guy and just did it myself, spending 2 nights after work using a grout saw to cut out the grout and applying the correct color caulk.
After all the wall tile work was done, the supervisor hung the shower curtain rod and in the process stripped several screws and cracked a tile where the rod was mounted. Then the worst part appeared after a couple days – he obviously put too much pressure on the tile with his hand to cause it to crack, but that pressure was also on the metal corner bead, which caused movement that cracked 12 bullnose tiles.  This ended up being another multi-night project for me, since I no longer trusted the tile guy nor the supervisor to fix things correctly. 
Mounting a 40x30 medicine cabinet should be pretty easy, right? Well, first they chipped the mirror in several places. So, we had to order a replacement unit from Kohler. Then, the guys mounted the medicine cabinet upside down. After being notified, they said they’d fix it the next day. Well, after coming home from work, I found that instead of correctly installing it, they just rotated an interior product sticker to make it look like it was right side up. This dishonestly was truly disappointing. Yet again, this was something that I needed to spend time fixing. And upon removing the cabinet, I realized that none of the 5 screws they used to attach the top of the cabinet to the wall went into a stud. Really? It took me a few minutes to find the studs, but at least I know it’s secure.
From the very beginning, one of my requirements because of HOA rules was to have a drip pan installed under the washer. This was never done, so I had to order one and then hook up the washer and dryer myself. But during the installation, I realized that the water drain pipe was mounted too high – while the washer & dryer had been sitting around the entire duration of the remodel project and the installation manuals were provided to the supervisor, the workers just mounted the water lines like they’d do for a full size washer. Our Bosch units are compact and have certain requirements, so I had to come up with a workaround. 
The project seemed to be finished until I tried taking a shower.  First, the tub diverter handle was so loose, it felt like it was going to break off. Then, the shower spout was loose.  The Speakman tub diverter handle was an easy fix – I just removed the handle and tightened a few bolts. But I wasn’t happy when I removed the shower spout collar – the shower spout elbow wasn’t anchored to the stud. It was just next to the stud and it could easily move an inch laterally. After a few years of movement and stress, I envisioned the copper pipe cracking at some connection, so I immediately mounted the pipe correctly. 
This project was filled with many mistakes that could’ve been avoided. While subcontractors are bound to slip up occasionally, a good supervisor will notice this and have the mistake corrected before the client notices. My advice to Rani is to find a core group of supervisors that are capable and trustworthy before trying to grow Inception further."
