Angi Approved businesses meet our standards for certification which include: <ul><li>The owner, principal, or relevant manager passed a criminal background check</li><li>Required to have applicable state and local licenses</li><li>Maintain an average star rating of 3.0 or better on our network, if they have at least one review</li><li>Paying to advertise their services</li><li>Meeting any other eligibility criteria required by Angi</li></ul> Keep in mind licensing is different from certifications. A license is a legal requirement to operate a business, while certifications are voluntary.</div>

The first subcontractor didn't know what he was doing. The owner of that company came out and completed the job. He did excellent work once he was out here. However, I don't ever want to go through the hassle again.

Worst possible experience ever. Cannot say that enough. Many days didn't show up when scheduled, WAY over budget, and very shoddy/sloppy work. Initial quote was roughly 8,500 and ended up billing for over 34,000 then put a lien on house for just over 5,000 without even informing us. Actually...
