Description of Work: The gentleman was 70 or so years and would have to get someone else to help him. He could have said a cement slab (16 x 8) was not down his alley. But he did come to Petaluma from Sonoma to check out my job site and give me a quote. I then decided to look elsewhere to get that job done and have. He might describe his capabilities a bit better. Light house hold jobs. As this was my first and only experience with Angie 's List... I was a bit let done. K. Walker

Description of Work: Mr Allen could barley make it up my stairs and was confused by what I told him. He did take some photos but I have not heard from him and want to get my money back.

Response from Allen Design & Construction
I took detailed measurements of this person's master bath and prepared a scale drawing of the new layout including the changes that she wanted to make. I also prepared 3-D renderings of the vanity area along with the pricing of the new vanity cabinets. When completed, I called her and left a message that I had this material to go over with her and when would be a convenient time to do so. I never heard back from her and concluded that she had changed her mind about the project.

Mike is great to work with. We tolled him that we are working on a tight budget and he really was mindful and considered about that. My husband and I are both hands-on kind of people, to keep the cost down Mike worked with us so we could do part of the work ourselves. Mike is a great planner and thinker and always is prepared for the next step. He takes his time and does not cut corners. He consults with his clients and explains everything very clearly. He keeps his working area tight and clean. He is the kind of guy you can trust to have in your home even if you are not there. He works a bit slow, but it is worth the wait, his work turns out beautiful. We are very pleased with Mike's service. --
Description of Work: The last time we used Mike Allen, he installed a water line in the crawl space under our house to connect to our new refrigerator. Back in 2009 we hired Mike to remodel our bathroom and laundry space facing the kitchen. Since our house was built in 1959 there were a lot of technical parts Mike had to figure out how to work through, such as plumbing, electrical, and of course construction. Mike is a great planner and his work quality is precise and meticulous. He is also a talented designer, he designed and built our bathroom vanity for us.

During a visit, my sister suggested that my house needed painting, but also mentioned that I should have a few things fixed before I did that. I hired Mike Allen to fix those things. He finished the work in three days. I liked his work so much that I asked his advice regarding another, larger, problem with the house, and the following month he started that project (which I will mention in a separate review).
Description of Work: He installed under-eaves blocking, boarded up a broken window on a storage room, installed exterior wood trim in several locations, replaced the eaves trim along one side of the house, and replaced missing redwood siding in two locations.

Mike did a garage conversion to create a one bedroom apartment in the downstairs unit. The garage was converted to a living room, and the walls had to be cut through to join the new living areas. The new apartment also has its own bathroom and laundry area. The entire area that was remodeled is approximately 750 sq feet. He also installed hardwood flooring and LED can lights, among several other things. Mike definitely has a lot of attention to detail. His price is very competitive and I have been very impressed with everything he has done. He does just fantastic work! All the detail work-window sills, blinds, granite counters, hardwood floors-everything is fantastic! I am very happy with all the work and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend him to anyone. I would give give him 5 stars!
