Rafael and his crew were very professional. He kept me up to date with all work done and communicated well through the entire project. The work was outstanding and will hire again for my next project.

Rafael replaced my gross old linoleum floor with subfloor and LVP, replaced the toilet and vanity, and finished the floor work with a quarter-round trim. The finishing work was well done; the floor was in bad shape and he fixed it and made it look amazing. If I had more $$ I would have had him redo the entire bathroom. Rafael arrived early, worked the whole day, and consulted me on every step of progress made. Rafael was always professional, polite, respectful, and well-tempered. I have had workers who have come in with foul language, loud music, and on their phones the whole time. Rafael is a rarity - he and his co-worker completely respect the client's home. I definitely would hire him again!

Rafael did great, prompt work on my fix & flip. We had good communication throughout the whole project; he's extremely responsive via phone, text or email. The work was good AND fast - which is hard to find. He knowlegeably answered any questions I had about any items, and was great at coming up with solutions to any issues that arose. I'm looking forward to working with him again on my next project!

I hired Mr. Mendes because of the Super Service designation, and the large number of positive reviews. Mr. Mendes made several visits to my home for completion of the two projects. Each time, he arrived promptly, and was very pleasant and easy to talk to. He did a beautiful job with the medicine cabinet, but the bookcases were another matter. The core issue I had with Mr. Mendes was that some of his actions had the appearance of taking shortcuts so that he could leave as quickly as possible to get to the next customer. Examples: (1) He (knowingly) used two pieces of damaged wood in two of the shelves. Both pieces had four inch chunks missing on the backside. The damaged area on one of the pieces was large enough to be able to see straight thru floor to ceiling. (2) He (knowingly) left about 12 exposed nails. Specifically, either the nailhead was left projecting about 1/4 inch, or the nailhead was cut off but with a spike remaining of 1/8 to 1/4 inch. This is a safety issue. Accidently bumping your hand on an exposed piece of nail can produce a nasty cut. (3) Painting the bookcases -- numerous drips, runs, and puddling. This is what happens when you use too much paint instead of using less paint with a first coat, letting it dry, then re-applying.. Again, I wish to state that Mr. Mendes is a very pleasant person, and did a wonderful job with the bathroom recessed med cabinet. Nonetheless, the problems with the bookcases overshadowed this.

"So sorry that you feel this way [Member Name Removed] but some of the statements are not true, I didn’t left nails intentionally and the damage wood could be easily fixed with putty however I replaced the wood and fix everything you asked me to same way was the paint I even relief you $150 just because you wasn’t happy."

bathroom tile installed
Response from Agile Construction and Home Improvement
"Hi [Member Name Removed] I don’t understand this review the project I did for you didn’t involve any shower and wall tile.... I did only floor which was nice and even I went back many times after the tile done so I checked the grout that was good and always put myself open to come back for ANY imperfection to be fixed and I have pictures to confirm that...."

OMG, I had the privilege to meet Rafael the owner. He personally did the job at my home. He is a total professional. He knows the entire home and im not aware of a job in the home he could not do. I recommend this great company all day long. His rates are very very good and he is willing to work with you on payments. He's me go to handyman.

Rafael was able to give us a quote the same day we contacted him. He’s professional and responds quickly to texts/messages. We’re very happy with our new shower/tub and would work with him again in the future.
