"The client did make an appointment and I asked the client for directions to her home she gave my directions and I still could not find home when I called back to get help finding home client did not answer the phone sorry"
"This client tried to tell me how the job was done and that how much other people were charging for the job. The work she wanted exceeded the amount of she wanted done at that point I was no longer interested in working for her"
"Whent to clients home discussed the work he needed done I told the client I would have to come back with one of my employees that was small enough to fit into the crawl space oponening when I came back from vacation I called client but he already had someone to do the job I've been in this business for 47 years and I'm very punctual if I'm gonna be late I will let you know I realize the client time is precious"
I had such a good experience with him I hired him to make many other repairs around my house (built in 1935). He and his workers repaired plaster, painted interior walls, painted the entire exterior of the house, removed repaired and painted 20 shutters, repaired roof leaks, installed ceramic tile, restored woodwork, renovated the laundry room, rebuilt an outside gate, replaced three windows, and cleared out and insulated an outside air handler storage space.
It was a pleasure working with Emo. He had many, many great ideas for improvements and finishing touches. His work is extremely detailed. His prices were very fair. He always arrived on time and if for some reason he was not coming a certain day, he always let me know ahead of time. He and his crew were always polite and a pleasure to have in my house. As a result of all his hard work, my house looks better than it ever has in the 14 years I've owned it. I would hire him again in a minute.
We hired Mr. Vargas after reading reviews on Angie's list. He ranked high. The initial job was to repair drywall damage on an interiior wall caused by a roof leak. The work needed to be done on two sides of a wall and then painted. When he came to give a quote, he was so convincing and confident that we hired him also to paint a large part of the interior of our house too.
We waited until he had availability to begin so he had complete control over bringing in his best workers to complete the job. It was on his schedule.
Well, while his workers were courteous, there work was not conducive for the work in a private residence. It was all about rushing, rushing, rushing to get the job done in the time allotment he had allowed them for the job. Prep work was sloppy, nail holes poorly repaired before painting, paint just slopped on, double coats not completed in several areas, no plastic sheets used over our new furniture in spite of our numerous requests, no paint tape used even though we were asked to buy it for them (they had a woman wiping up drips behind them with a dirty rag that left a film of diluted paint on whatever surface she wiped). I had to point out numerous areas that they missed or had to give a second coat to. Had I not, they considered it complete.
The paint job was shoddy at best and, in fact, only three months later is already chipping in certain parts of the house. The drywall repair had to be halted when it was discovered that we still had a leak in our roof . We thank them for their honesty in pointing out that we still had a roof leak. However, I could tell that they did NOT have the drywall expertise that Mr. Vargas promised they had. The drywall work was inferior and still showed the seams of where the repairs where done. I had indicated that my goal was a seamless wall. They would not deliver on that request.
We halted the job to allow time for the roof to be repaired and we never asked them to come back to finish the job. We just completed it ourselves. Nor did Mr. Vargas call to schedule a time to finish up. We paid him for work performed and he agreed to that.
The work performed was more appropriate for an office or commercial environment where the inhabitants may not care as much about detail.
This job was a waste of our money and I plan to hire someone else to redo what Mr. Vargas was unsuccessful in accomplishing to our high standards.
Sincerely Ron Brooks
Great job on painting accent color walls in the house.
Gracias!
I did have two MINOR problems once the remold was completed. I called Emo and Jesus returned the next day to fix both problems.
I am impressed with the cleanliness, professionalism, punctuality, and level of craftsmanship that Emo and his team exhibited.
agreed to it.
Eufemio was pretty much on time both times I met him to
assess repairs on my condo.
Unfortunately, there was lack of communication regarding what he needed
for us to do so that he could have assessed the problem correctly. The second time he came he did not even bring
a flashlight to see inside the wall.
When I had all parties ready to meet at the property for a third time,
as he had suggested, he backed out of the deal, even though we were willing to
pay for his time and expertise. I was
lucky enough to find another Angies' List contractor that could step in and perform
this crucial inspection without having to reschedule with all the other
parties.
One of my favorite things about working with Emo was that every morning by 7 or 7:30 am his crew was there and were hard at work. Emo always communicated with me about the progress and always stayed on schedule. We would talk at the end of everyday, and we would review the work that was accomplished and he would outline the next days work. Having this type of communication was really important to me. Emo and his crew were overall a pleasure to work with, they did great work, were fair on price, and just really good people. Im very picky with the things that get done around my house and Emo always took care of me and made sure things were up to my standards. Its been such a pleasure working with Emo that Im already planning our third major project.
Please feel free to reach out to me if you want further info and personal reference on EMO.
Finally, Emo and his crew are just a group of really good, skilled, hard working, and even more importantly HONEST people. It was a pleasure working with him and I plan on inviting them back for future work.
HIGHLY RECOMMEND.
The company checked on them every day and there were no issues at all.
