They were okay. I thought they were a little expensive. They were all right. I think we ask them to come back and do something else but they didn’t want to do it. I’m not thinking badly about them but I wouldn’t truly recommend them. We tried to communicate with them and then they back and did different to what we said.

What a great job, very nice guy, and detailed work. More than extremely pleased. Due to my crazy schedule, it was hard to find a time for him to come. He was always extremely patient and never made me feel I was an inconvenience.

There was some miscommunication about when the work was to be done, which caused me to have to take additional time off from work (although I thought I had made my expectations and understandings clear), but other than that, everything went splendidly. During the estimate phase, he correctly sensed that I wanted to maximize my benefit by doing what I could on my own, thus leaving him more time (within the hours paid by the coupon) to do what I couldn't. He was very informative. I mentioned that I hate textured ceilings and walls because they're hard to patch cleanly, and he told me what product to buy and how to apply it to correct that problem. Great service; I highly recommend them.

It went very well, Myles came on time and was very professional. He fixed the ceiling hole in the garage and even built me a new cover for my access entry there. Then he built two six foot wide headers for the closet openings so he could hang the new bi-fold doors that I had purchased.
He arranged for his finisher Tony to come out to mud the work so it would blend in to the original surfaces. Tony did a great job, the repairs have almost disappeared.
He then came out to hang the new bi fold doors and I now have two wonderful new closets and no hole in the ceiling.

Myles came out and inspected job, then a few days later he submitted quote. two weeks later he removed pantry and started drywall. He made arrangements with my husband to run electrical wires and he would come back to Finnish off the holes in the ceiling and walls. After he left he told us via email that he was scheduling work two weeks out, tried repeatedly to reschedule a time for him to complete work and close off the gaping holes in our ceiling into Attic as well as hole around electrical outlets. He did not reply to several attempts to schedule work. We had to hire new contractor to complete the job.

well, no problem with installation.

"This customer had a 1" dip in the middle of her 5' wide bathroom ceiling from a previous leak that damaged the drywall. When the molding was touching in the middle the ceiling, there was a 1" gap on both ends. I explained to her the issue with the ceiling needed to be fixed for the molding to fit correctly. She told me she had friends that were contractors, and they said just to bend the molding. You can't bend molding and make the joints tight, so unfortunately there were gaps up at the top between the molding and the ceiling."

Fantastic! South Shore did an awesome job! The extra cost above the big deal was reasonable for what they did. I did have some final finishing details that I wanted taken care of and it was done promptly. I would recommend their services and plan on using them for other work around our home.

It went very well and I am very pleased with the result.
Response from South Shore Construction LLC
"The big deal offer the customer purchased was for carpentry, drywall, and framing.The customer asked if I painted, and I nicely explained I do not paint, I also explained, any caulking needed is usually done by a painter. When we got to the home, she had bought book case molding that she wanted to use for crown molding, the walls were tiles right up to the ceiling which made is very difficult to fasten the molding correctly. Right in the middle of the 4' ceiling, the was a 1" sag where the ac unit had been leaking, and allowed the ceiling to dip. This caused the molding to hit in the middle and leave a 1" gap on both edges. When I explained to her the problem, she said, The ceiling was fine, and she had contractor friends tell her to "just bend the molding to fit the ceiling. I told her I was not comfortable with that, and the right way was to address the 1" dip. She said no just do the best we could. All I could do is cut up into the sagging drywall and install the molding as tight as we could. This obviously left gaps. I am unsure as to why the grade was a C"

Exceptional. Called ahead of time and talked through project. Exchanged information and was quickly responsive when I contacted them. Showed on time day of job and quickly set up and went over project again ensuring it was fully understood with no new changes. Kept me up to date on progress throughout the effort. When complete we reviewed everything together. I will certainly use them again.

They showed up right on time over two days and worked consistantly the whole time they were here. Both workers were easy to get along with and asked questions about anything that came up which could be a problem for me later, like removing the toilet. We agreed that taking out the toilet at this time would be an inconvience to the household, so Myles offered to come back when the floors were finished to texture behind the toilet and do touch-up work for free. Myles, the owner, went out of his way to give me the best price he could. Angie's List ran a special for $299 after I bought my $99 special, and Myles was happy to combine the two for me. I believe $399 for almost 18 man hours of work was more than a great deal! Especially for the wonderful job they did. I couldn't be happier with Myles, Tic, and South Shore Construction. I highly recommend this company.

Myles and Tory showed up on time and worked steadily to accomplish everything, even though we found some surprise wood damage. They said "don't worry we'll take care of it" and they did. They were knowledgeable, thorough and professional, taking care to do a good job. They were also friendly and flexible and explained what was going on.
We will definitely be calling South Shore Construction again when we have home projects.

"This couple has done alot of work to their home themselves. Because of the hard work they have done, that combination usually equals very protective customers. I am grateful they took the chance by purchasing "The Big Deal", and are happy with our work!!!"

The owner was excellent in his approach and to deal with. I believe he honestly wants to do a top notch job for his customers. The man who actually did the job had a few communication problems in understanding what was to be done. I don't know what the base problem was but there were a couple of problems. He also did not cover everything, grabbed a new phone with mud/plaster(?) on his hands which got into all the soft buttons and will have to be replaced even though I tried to save it. That plus some stuff that fell into a printer could have been avoided by taking time to cover things up. He definitely did seem to know what he was doing, was polite and punctual so even though there were some problems I am going to give this company a top rating . I think these were just glitches and look forward to dealing with them again in the future. They get extra credit just for great attitude and I am betting covers will be on the top of the list from now on.

"We appreciate all the work we get, and strive to do our best. This was a Big Deal for 4 hours of drywall. It ended up to be 10 extra hours at "NO CHARGE" . My employee went back 3 days in a row. It was 14x16 living room stacked with boxes to the ceiling, in every corner. The drywall had been hung years ago and never finished. There were 1/2" gaps in between the sheets, screws that were not properly installed. My employee spent 2 hrs just in prep time clearing the area, and covered everything the best he could. He put 3 coats of mud on all the joints, orange peeled the ceiling, then rolled 2 coats of paint, he then went back the 3rd day, on his own time, and installed her register grills.He did this because of the conversations he had had with this customer and really felt bad for her situation, and wanted to help make a difference. I appreciate the "A" rating, but am disappointed she was still unhappy with our efforts."

The soffit and fascia on our 20+ old house had water damage and soft wood that allowed "critters" to come and go from our attic. We needed to have those areas replaced with new wood. We were very pleased with the work that Myles at South Shore did for us. They responded quickly to our request for service and arranged a day to take a look at the work needed and prepared an estimate that was priced well and professionally presented. They worked with our schedule to find a time that was convenient for us. The work was done quickly and neatly and everything was cleaned up when the work was finished. We are delighted with the finished work. In fact, we have several more small projects that we are looking forward to using South Shore Construction again. We look forward to working with them in the future and will be recommending them to family and friends.

This is a responsible and honest company! Did not mark up the material they use(even saved me a trip to buy it myself). The employee was patient and skillful and successfully got the job done. I really appreciate this company and angie's list after suffering so much from purchasing "deals" from random companies on Livingsocial and Groupon

He did an excellent job with the repair and was able to fix more cracks in the four hours than I had anticipated. He is punctual, reliable, clean, and very professional. I am going to have him do some larger repair projects on my house in the near future and would recommend his services to others.

This was an excellent experience all around. There was great communication from the start. Myles La Garde, the owner of the company, was friendly, attentive, and professional. He told us when he could be at the project, and arrived on time when he said he would. He was prepared for the work.
Myles is someone I would characterize as a Yankee craftsman. By that I mean his work is marked by a high level of skill, attention to detail, and ingenuity. And he's from Boston, where a shoddy job would never pass! He works quickly and efficiently.
I highly recommend South Shore Construction (in Apollo Beach - make sure you get the right one, since there are others with similar names), and I would definitely request their services again in the future.

"This was such a fun project!! You very rarely have staircases like these in Florida, never mind in a house that was built in a 1925. These members are high quality people. They knew exactly what they wanted, and were very accommodating. One look at their home, you will understand that preserving its integrity, and originality is extremely important to them. It was my pleasure to help restore the history of their home. Thank you for such a great review."
