CONSTANTINE VARDAL- CONTRACTOR

Dean was responsive and got the work completed in a timely manner. Because it's an old house and I knew the previous finish job on the basement wasn't done well, I knew we'd have some surprises as walls came down. Fortunately, none of them were big and Dean was able to take care of each one fairly easily. Most importantly he kept me up to date on the details of all overages in time and materials so I had a good idea at any given time where I was in my contingency budget.I would recommend Dean in a second and actually already have to several friends. I'll definitely have him back to do more projects!

After speaking with another company, Constantine came in with a bid that was about $500 lower. Based on this low estimate and his positive reviews on Angie's List, I decided to go with him. The service was excellent. He was able to squeeze me in even though he had a very busy schedule. The workers he had helping him were very polite and courteous. They did an excellent job, and they were always punctual. I would definitely recommend them.

If you are looking for a contractor, we would highly recommend Dean Vardal.  Dean renovated our master bathroom and did a beautiful job.  We are extremely pleased with the final result.  Dean is professional, trustworthy, and respectful.  His attention to detail is unsurpassed and he is very good at communicating suggestions as well as concerns before and during the project. 
He did all of the work in our home himself, so we didn?t have an endless stream of people coming and going.  He was also very patient when our cabinet order was delayed, which surely impacted his schedule.  He went above and beyond to keep his work areas clean and always picked up at the end of the day.  If you have to wait a bit before he can start on your project it?s because he is busy. Believe us, it will be worth the wait!

Dean is awesome! Super friendly, knowledgable, fair, accepts ideas from the homeowner, and provides solutions to obstacles along the way. Dean completely transformed our house with this wonderful, open, high-end kitchen remodel that we have been enjoying ever since. We highly recommend Dean and plan on hiring him again for our next big plans.
His subcontractors also did a great job but I had some issues with the plumbing contractor. Dean subbed out the electrical, plumbing, and flooring since there was so much work to do. In other situations, he's handy in all those areas.
Spotlight Electrical - super friendly, awesome work.
Knotty Pines Flooring - Terrific job blending oak floors in our 1945 house. Can't tell where old flooring stops and new flooring begins.
MNM Plumbing - Owner was helpful and fixed mistakes after his employees did a mediocre job the first time around. I would not have MNM Plumbing do any work for me again.

Overall they were good in services.

He has to send me a quote for fixing my tub, because he is doing my tub, but he has not sent me the quote yet though I have called him three or four times already, so he is not very responsive. I would love for him to call because he is famous and I really need to have my tub done and I don’t know what else to do. I hope he will just show up and do this for me. His prices were good and he was professional and friendly.   

With his expertise, he was able to determine the trap and did an entire replacement. It is perfect. He did a perfect job. I think the price was reasonable.

The job started with tear out of the carpet, then replacing the plywood on the ceiling and then removing the paneling on the walls.  The area was painted with my chosen colors and then tile on the floor was installed.  Being a very old house, there were quirky features that Dean worked around very well.

I searched Angie's List for a highly recommended handyman. I interviewed one other before Dean, but learned that he staffed others to do the work and I'd never know who might be coming to the house. I wasn't comfortable with that and learned that Dean does all his own work, unless it's a larger project. I was able to get on his schedule within a couple of weeks and he did a fabulous job in handling all our various needs. His personality was great, he educated me on what he was doing and brought up other issues I had not noticed yet in our new home. He was affordable and he cleaned up after himself (a big plus)!! We are already compiling a list for his next visit. We are very happy with his work and I will definitely refer him to friends and clients.

My husband worked with him and met him. He was on time. He was friendly and knowledgeable.

Dean did an excellent job for us.  He was the second bidder on the multi-part project and his bid was much lower.  Plus, he does all the work himself, rather than sending in various sub-contractors.  He is very polite and professional,  and seems to be skilled in just about any job you might need in the home.  I would not hesitate to call him again.

He is clearly very popular, so there may be a slight delay in returning a phone call or a couple of days' wait to have the services performed. But, he's self-employed and solo, so this is understandable, and he's focused on the job (as opposed to taking lots of calls).  He may not be the person you want to call in an emergency for this reason, but we think he's worth the wait for most projects.   

Dean is prompt, professional, attentive to detail and did excellent work. He returned calls right away, showed up on time, and kept to the schedule. He helped me find a good deal on the type of bamboo flooring I had researched - and I love these new floors! He left everything very clean at the end of the job and even changed some light bulbs and tightened loose door pulls as he worked. While installing the floor he discovered a slow leak in a radiator and not only pointed it out but explained to me in detail how it could be repaired. He has a lot of expertise in many areas - I would not hesitate to hire him again for any kind of handyman project. I've owned a lot of older properties over the years and worked with a lot of handymen on various fixes - Dean is top of the list.

Dean was great to work with. He was very quick to return our call and was able to start the work the next week. He did a thorough walk through to ensure he would be able to complete all the tasks and to know what materials he would need. He spent 2 full days completing the work - fixing doors, drawers, hinges ets. All the work he did was superb! He was extrememly clean and neat and did the work just as requested. We will definitely reccommend Dean to our friends and will absolutely be using him again in the future.

Dean returned my call within 24 hours, said he could do the work I described, and arrived on time for our appointment about a week later. He also arrived on time for the second day required to complete the work. He was very professional, efficient, and well-organized and had all the tools and equipment for the job. All the work he did was of the highest quality. He is a general contractor who also does complete remodeling. His prices are very reasonable. I wouldn't hesitate to use him for any job, large or small.

He returned my calls fairly quickly and arranged to meet me at the house to walk through so he knew what materials he would need. We arranged a time for him to do the work and he completed the job in the time he quoted.

Great. Dean did a great job. He was punctual, and the work was excellent. The price was very reasonable.

Dean is very professional and all of the work he did for us was high quality. Dean spent the time to walk through our house and give us a detailed estimate for the various projects. He arrived to work on the projects when he said he would be there. Dean completed the projects in a timely manner, but we never felt like he rushed through the tasks just to complete them. We feel like Dean takes pleasure in doing a good job, which we really appreciated. We were so pleased with Dean that we had him come out to work on our house on three separate occasions.

He was very timely and did a good job. I felt like I got what I paid for.

He did a great job. As a matter of fact, I have a list of things he is coming back to do. The price was fair for the amount of work he did. He was professional and hard working. He always returned phone calls. He built the cabinets the way I wanted them.
