Description of Work: I paid for this Big Deal on 9/11/2013. I called to schedule the work on 12/19/2013. I left a message to call back. No response. I called again in March or April, and again in June (I do not have the exact dates). Still no response. So I would like to get my money back since I cannot get hold of a person at ABX.

It went very well, the guy came in, fixed a couple of the door frames that were broken, he was very professional, the price was reasonable and he did a good job. I ended up spending $150. I had another guy who came in who told me that the whole door had to be replaced and this guy came in and told me only the frame had to be replaced and it would have taken care of the problem. It saved me a lot of money.
Description of Work: I used ABX Contracting for a couple of my small repairs. My last interaction with them was about 3 weeks ago.

ABX Contracting is very professional, prompt and professional. After purchasing their deal, I was contacted within the same day. I advised Chris of the job I needed to have done and he clearly explained my options. I chose to have 2 guys for 2 hours (since it possibly required removing fence posts and sections). ABX Contracting arrived approximately 10 minutes before the start time, items were purchased within budget for the project and completed within the 2 hour time frame. My fence is sturdier than before, the job was a success and the guys were wonderful.
Description of Work: ABX Contracting repaired my falling fence. After coming out, they discovered that I had a rotten posts and my fence posts were not in cement. So they replaced a post and put the other posts in cement.

We really had a good experience with Chris and his partner. They left a form to send in and we are just in the middle of a move so it is hard to find time to do that. Chris is an amazingly responsive person to work with. From the time he came out to give the first estimate and through the last day he was always good about checking in and confirming. I'm a texter and we were texting back and forth at whatever time of day. I felt that he was a very accountable and very responsive. The work that they did was wonderful too. It was exactly the way we wanted it. I thought his prices were good. We had a couple of other people quote the work. He wasn't the lowest but he was close to it.
Description of Work: I last used ABX Contracting last week to finish things up. They did a couple of different things. He replaced some rotted windows and shored up some floor joists. He did some caulking around certain parts of the roof. He did some electrical work and tightening down the carbon monoxide detectors.

David came and did a fabulous job!!!! Arranging the job was easy with Chris at ABX Contracting. David came on time, cut and replaced the wood efficiently and neatly. He took the old wood and helped with a problem with a window that no one had been able to help me with for two years. I am very pleased with the work and will definitely call them again. I will also highly recommend them to friends. He was very friendly, very accommodating, very efficient, very competent, very helpful, and very pleasant to work with!!!

David Strutton of ABX arrived promptly and assessed the areas of the house exterior that needed wood rot repair. He told me he would not be able to repair the rot on my windows at this time because of the Big Deal time constraints. Because I had called ahead with my problems, I knew this was a possibility and I had enough work to fill the three hours. Dave went to buy the lumber he needed and promptly returned to start the job. He worked tirelessly and efficiently until the job was completed. The new wood repairs look great and I am very pleased with the craftsmanship. I am planning to have the windows done in the future as his estimate for their repair was reasonable and I appreciated his honesty and professionalism.
Description of Work: Replaced multiple areas of wood rot with new lumber.

This work was done as part of an Angie's Big Deal so it was a very good value for me, the homeowner. The provider was professional in every sense, was on time, did the work correctly and professionally, and with good humor and personality. I would definitely all them again for future work.

The coupon was $149 for four hours of work; they charged an extra $90. They arrived on time, were very professional and clean. They installed a latticed wine rack over the refrigerator and about 8 feet of baseboard in a pantry. In addition to good building skills, they have excellent problem-solving abilities and a willingness to take on challenges. They were very courteous. I would definitely hire them again, without a doubt.

They did an amazing job. On time, very personable, and great quality. They built every aspect of my addition, from pouring my foundation to framing all they way to finish carpentry work. They also built a porch on the front of my house, and did a lot of custom woodwork. They have a great team of guys, all of them very pleasant and respectful. They were also very tidy with there work during and with cleaning up at the end of the day. I couldn't be more pleased with the outcome.
Description of Work: Built a 1500 sq.ft addition w/ garage and added porch with roof onto my house.
