Get matched with top wood stripping pros in Nokomis, FL

"This was our second project with Smith Remodeling (see review of 3/22/20) – this time a complete kitchen and bath renovation. Once again, we got superior workmanship, quality materials and great communication at a fair price. We were away for the summer, but we knew from our first experience we could invite Lisa, Mark and their crew into our home with confidence. Smith uses only its own crew, no subs, and has a great network of suppliers for cabinets, tile, countertops, fixtures, shower enclosures and whatever else you need. Lisa coordinates and schedules them all. Once work began, Lisa was in steady communication via text, email or phone. She sent photos almost every day. If she had a question, she consulted us before proceeding. If we had questions, she answered them promptly. The job was done in less than a month. The results were beautiful. This small company is in high demand with good reason."

"Ray and his team of professionals remodeled our bathroom installing a new shower. The shower was gutted down to the studs and they waterproofed the area and then proceeded to install the proper drywall and 24’ ceramic tile. Flawless seems and grout work. I enjoyed watching the crew at work, they gave me confidence that they knew exactly what was needed. When they were done they cleaned and left the bathroom extremely clean. Would recommend. Do not hesitate to call 💪💪"

"Armor Guard Review In August 2023 I had Barry the Field Manager of Armor Guard come to give me an estimate to repaint my 7 ft by 14 ft deck. The price I was quoted was more than double of other estimates with other companies. The reason I chose them was for the warranty. 5 years labor 20 years material and the warranty was transferable if I decided to sell my home. I should have realized at the time that the warranty was too good to be true. They were supposed to send a crew to pressure wash, fill all cracks and holes, sand, apply primer, and apply two coats of Sherwin-Williams Super Deck paint and sealer. Little did I know at the time the warranty by Armor Guard was a ploy. They sent one man a subcontractor to do all the work himself. I am retired and was able to be here to monitor each day with step by step photos that I took. First the man who came was told only to power wash and paint. This was my first interaction with Rodney the President of Armor Guard. Rodney was not helpful and was argumentative. He then agreed to prepare and paint my deck as was written in our contract. My deck was then primed and painted in the rain. The man who did all the work was being pushed to get it done quickly. As a result one week later I could see spots of primer and bare wood showing through the paint. Again I called Rodney and he told me that it was bird droppings and they left the paint so I should just paint it myself. He did send his subcontractors to look at it and they agreed that it did have many areas showing primer and wood. He agreed to have them come back to apply a third coat. They did. In April 2024, 8 months after the original painting it was showing primer and bare wood through the paint again. I contacted Rodney again he was rude. He did agree to have subcontractors come on June 8th to pressure wash the deck and then they would return on June 10th to repaint the entire deck. On June 8th two men from { removed company name } showed up at 8:00 a.m. One of the men said that they would pressure wash and touch up but not paint the entire deck as Rodney had promised. He said that Rodney had only paid him $300 and told him to pressure wash and touch up. At that time I told them to just pressure wash and I would take this up with Rodney. They left my furniture in my driveway they left my hose on the ground with the nozzle off. They did not do a good job. They were only here about 15 minutes total. Rodney has not made an attempt to come to look at the work himself or do a final inspection. I have caught Rodney in lies and have gone through continued stress and anguish because of this. I have two photo albums on my phone with day by day pictures of the work from the beginning until now. I also have screenshots saved of every text message between Rodney and myself since August of 2023. He texts instead of phone calls and actually in this case it turned out to my advantage. Rodney then offered to come and have the men paint the entire deck but he also added it would be the last time. That to me means he was not going to honor his 5-year warranty. At that point I made the decision not to respond. I no longer want anymore to do with Rodney or Armor Guard. He made a statement that my deck was dirty and that's why I was having issues. He is a narcissistic liar and impossible to do business with. My complaint and his responses are on the BBB website. I am considering contacting a reporter since I have so much to show as far as photos and screenshots of our text messages from the beginning. I think it's important to show other people what happened to me so that they don't fall for this sham."

"They installed a concrete driveway for us. Professional, timely, courteous. They showed up when they said they would, did great work, cleaned jobsite, clear communication throughout process. Highly recommend!"

"J Corrigan and his team were great! Our home is old and needed a lot of repair and prep before they could start painting. But they worked efficiently and did high quality work. The house looks great and Jay was highly communicative throughout the process. We couldn’t be happier with how the project went."

"The company did not finish the project outside of the house. I called them and they told me they would show up like a week later, and they still did not show up. This happened five different times and the project is still unfinished today."

"Dave is a no nonsense guy to work with and now the house looks great. The job appears flawless as he paid a lot of attention to prep work before a single drop of paint was applied. The prep included repairing stucco that bubbled up from flooding and gouging from debris. He dug out the base of the walls to repair the stucco damage. He was on time and accurate with the job estimate and finish time. I would hire him again."

"Very well. A wonderful company with great guys with solid skills. A pleasure to have such professional work done and at such a fair price. I would definitely hire this company again."

"Jesse reached out and listened to what we needed done. He promptly got us a quote which we ended up hiring him for the work. There were a couple of hiccups arose during the job, which were quickly addressed and taken care of for us. We appreciate the prompt and conscientious job they did for us and we would definitely hire them again."

"We hired Golden Beach Painting to paint our entire house, interior and exterior. Professional service from beginning to end. Scottie guided us with beautiful color choices. Honest, hard-working crew and fairly priced,. I highly recommend Golden Beach Painting!"
