My clients have all been very pleased and I'm happy to give you referrals. Let them tell you how I do. "A passion for precision"--that's my motto.

"I highly recommend Dylan, here's why: - he showed up every day - he was thoughtful in the placement of the tiles in my bathroom remodel - he willingly met my requests to customize my bathroom - he's fun to talk to - the punch list was the smallest I've ever had - he was done 3 days early - he cares about doing the job right - he does amazing work -- I'm so pleased with my bathroom"

As a family owned and operated company, we believe that your remodeling project is more than just another fix. It's a way to transform your house into your home. It's why we've made it our mission for over 30 years to treat our customers like our own family, and ensure complete satisfaction every step of the way. We stand behind our work for a lifetime. So you can rest easy knowing that no matter what happens, we'll be here to make it right. This unique, worry-free experience is why Colorado chooses Bordner.

"BLUF: Quality of work is superb, administrative management/communication atrocious. For cost, would expect a seamless experience. Background: My wife moved into a house made in 1969 with a fair amount of work necessary to really modernize the house. It was by luck, while at a farmers market we would run into Bordner. The two girls at the farmers market, gave minimal information but scheduled the follow up with a professional to do measurements and give the shpeal. We asked for a consultation for a front door/side window project. Official Consultation: The rep showed up on time and went through the entirety of customization, quality, etc etc. He was very professional. He did some basic measurements and we agreed on two side panes and the main door. The project was quoted roughly 8,000 dollars. At the end of the consultation they had a cheesy free vacation deal that felt a little scammy/time share based so we just ignored that. We were told it would take roughly 2-3 months for the door to be made and to expect an install date at the end of November. Communication: No communication gain to until 1. About a month in when we were told the door width was too small and to change the design--we agreed as the house has many quarks such as this but, would have been nice to know that earlier on... Next Communication 2. About another month goes by and we are hearing nothing, so we call and the person who picks up no longer works for the company? He gives us numbers that go to random people not affiliated with the business. We reach out to the general Bordner phone line and are told someone will get back to us Sometime later it is communicated to us that the rep we spoke with screwed up and that we needed new measurements. Jerry the owner comes to our house to redo the measurements--cool, shows some level of care. Following Communications After this the project is delayed and it requires me emailing Jerry to get any sort of update on the project. The door is delayed due to a "defect" at the factory. Then finally we have a scheduled install date of January 2nd, then the installer is sick. I understand people get sick but, I would think the company would reschedule someone else as we've already at this point been delayed, rescheduled, and hassled. The next install date, it's too cold. The finally install on 1/24/24--roughly 2 months delayed. Project: The installer called prior to the install gave an Estimated Time of Arrival. Very professional kept the work site clean. Good deconstruction of old material and high quality install of the product. Worked with us with a couple of hurdles. Slightly, standoff-ish but, I am not paying the guy to be my friend or make conversation--he loved my son though and hell that means the most to me haha. The door install at this time appears to be of high quality and no issue. There were a few blemishes on the siding--which I am resentful for because I had to wait so long--but I place no blame on the installer for this. Overall impression: The end goal was accomplished, but for 8,000 dollars for a front door, frame, side pane install I would expect better customer service, project management, and communication. I am not running their business nor do I wish to, but they are likely making decent margins on every install so it's not like it's a general contractor doing everything on their own. I would not recommend the company in the future, simply based on the cost and the headache I had to manage. If the company was more affordable with the headaches it would be understandable or if the cost was the same and the company was as easy as order and install cool fine, I am will to pay for that. It felt like I was on my way to becoming an employee with having to continually communicate."

"We hired Groundworks to install a sump pump, expecting professional work and peace of mind. Unfortunately, the experience was anything but that. First, the team showed up 2 weeks after the initial visit. Worse than the delay was the complete lack of communication throughout the process ? getting updates or even basic responses was frustratingly difficult. The biggest issue, however, was the quality of the work. Their installation was poorly executed, and we ended up having to hire another company to fix their mistake ? costing us even more money on top of what we already paid Groundworks. We trusted them with an important job in our home and feel completely let down. I would not recommend Groundworks to anyone looking for reliable, professional service."

"I hired this company to build a new deck in the beginning of July. It is now the middle of September and my deck is still not finished. While the time frame is not completely their fault due to material delivery they wouldn’t show up for days at a time when material was available to work with. There were times they would show up and only stay for a couple hours. The whole process was a nightmare. Their lack of quality shows in all areas of the deck. I drafted the plans myself and they were approved by the building department. I provided them with copies of the plans. They messed up 4 of the 5 concrete piers because they measured them wrong. Instead of redoing them. They poured square pads over them that were only poured on the surface for three of them. One of the outside piers was supposed to be 10 inches. They messed up the measurement then poured a 16 inch pier over it that is approximately 1.5 ft above ground. They also cut a sprinkler line that went through the pier instead of pouring over it like I explained to them. I had to replace one piece of siding that met with the deck. I bought matching siding to replace it. The workers broke the siding while moving it. They bought new siding that was cheaper and did not match the existing siding. They additional broke off another small piece of siding that was not fixed. They left material all throughout my yard for weeks, leading to my grass dying and my sprinklers unable to work because they were covered up. Nails and screws were everywhere until I picked them up. The posts were cut short for the railing, so they nailed pieces of extensions on top of the posts. They messed up fastener spots for the rails leaving holes in the railing. They originally used screws for the framing. They had to be replaced with nails even telling them before they started nails had to be used and it was in the plans from the building department as well. They used facia board for the steps until I explained to them what the facia boards were for. Leading me to be short on facia boards for the rest of the deck. They also started the deck flooring using a facia board, realized the mistake and replaced. But at that point the facia board could not be used elsewhere as it was notched for posts. I bought flashing for the ledger that was never used. When I questioned them about it he stated the siding and ledger were already put on. The quality of work was below average at best. They cut corners and I found it very concerning I had to explain to them parts of building a deck."

FAQs for drain cleaning projects in Breckenridge, CO

On average, a plumber will take 30 minutes to two hours to clear a clogged drain. If the clog is located close to the drain or an access point and isn’t severe, the project will take about half an hour. If the clog is deep within your plumbing system or is a severe blockage, it can take two or more hours to remove the clog. For this reason, main line clogs tend to take longer, usually between two and three hours.

It’s possible to snake minor drain clogs yourself, provided they sit within a foot or two of the drain itself, but it’s usually best to hire a professional plumber regardless. Even experienced DIYers have a high chance of accidentally pushing the clog further into the drain using a drain snake or another tool, so hiring a plumber is the ideal course of action. A professional plumber can use camera equipment to locate and identify the clog, and remove the entire blockage to fix your issue permanently.

In most areas, drain cleaning professionals don’t technically need a license, as they aren’t altering your plumbing system in any way. However, we recommend hiring a drain cleaning professional with a plumbing license and certification. Certified plumbers are more likely to provide professional solutions to drain clogs without damaging your system. They’ll also have the diagnostic tools and experience necessary to remove the clog entirely rather than providing a temporary solution, as a handyperson might. Use Angi’s state licensing tool to check your plumber’s professional licenses before hiring.

Applying drain cleaner is a common DIY solution to clogged drains, but it can be extremely harmful to your pipes and lead to corrosion and leaks. It is almost always better to try snaking a clog than using a drain cleaner, but the best solution is to hire a professional plumber. They can locate the clog and gauge the severity using a camera system and then decide if using a plumber’s snake, auger, or drain cleaner is the best option to remove the clog and limit damage to your plumbing system.

The average cost to unclog a drain is around $200, with prices ranging between $110 and $800, depending on the type of drain and the extent of the clog. Hiring a professional to snake the toilet or sink will usually cost between $110 and $275, a bathtub or shower typically costs around $225, and a main line clog can cost between $100 and $800 based on the severity of the clog and how far beyond the access point the clog sits. Since the labor involved varies, most plumbers will charge an hourly rate for drain cleaning.
