TechWPS Remodeling

I worked with John on my basement. He really went out of his way to put my vision to paper and put us a great floor plan together. All his guys he had working with him, plumber, electrician, hvac guys all seemed friendly and knowledgeable and John passed all of the inspections on the first try. That was a testament that he knew what he was doing. At the end of most days he would ask me or my wife to come down and do a walk through and we felt like we knew exactly where we were in the project and when next payments were coming up. As we worked through the basement, I really liked that each stage was defined and that John set expectations with us and we knew what to expect. Our basement turned out great and we love it. If you want someone to bring your vision to fruition and to have a partner to collaborate that vision into an amazing basement, I recommend John. I have referred them to my neighbors and am happy to be a reference.

I had no idea what was involved in a basement remodel. I hired TechWPS Last year and I was really happy with how they walked us through what was involved and at the end of the day what was completed. We never went outside of what was quoted to us, so the budget never changed. We added a theater, a small bar, a bedroom and bathroom. I really love how the bathroom and theater turned out. We use the theater for movie nights.

I worked with these guys last year and they did a great job. I liked that they provided a line itemed quote, so I knew exactly what was included and what was not. They did a great job on the basement which included a bathroom, bedroom and kitchenette. We use the basement everyday and the kids love playing down there.

I am writing to share my experience with the recent home remodeling project undertaken by John, whom I hired through Thumbtack. I was impressed by the positive reviews and anticipated a seamless and quality project based on those recommendations. Regrettably, my experience with John's work has not met the standards I expected. As someone who has had three homes remodeled, I believe it is crucial to communicate my concern so that someone else doesn't walk into the same issues. Our basement, measuring less than 900 sq ft, incurred a cost of $59,000. During the drywall phase, it became apparent that John's absence during critical stages, particularly when subcontractors were working was an issue. He left us with curved edges, patches everywhere, nicks down the corners of the walls, and slanted walls. The newly installed egress windows, not included in the initial cost, have paint and drywall residue all over, with visible cracks in the surrounding drywall. The paint application on the walls is splotchy and has so many missed spots. The vanity lights don't line up, he couldn't have even been bothered to caulk the back of the sink. Despite offering multiple opportunities to address these concerns, it became evident that John lacked the necessary skill set to fix any of this. It is important to mention that attempting to discuss and resolve these matters with John proved challenging, as he tended to dispute disagreements rather than collaboratively finding solutions. He does not want feedback unless it's positive. In retrospect, I regret not exploring alternative options, whether more expensive or budget-friendly, as the work delivered by John is, in my assessment, unacceptable and incomplete. In light of these circumstances, we had to make the difficult decision to conclude the project and fulfill our payment obligations. I can only ask you to save yourself the headache of hiring this man. Accountability and quality are lost on his work

John was always responsive. Working with him was great. He always was upfront about everything and had good foresight
