Extremely well. Gorilla Builders' crew and all subcontractors were highly skilled, professional and courteous. In addition, Burt Davy was always mindful of costs and went above and beyond to keep them down.

Remodeling is a tricky thing. No matter how dated that tile or how dysfunctional that space, they are still elements of YOUR HOME. Even if you are not at all sentimentally attached to the "old junk", or impressed by the old school craftsmanship and materials, no one looks forward with glee to the dust and mess and parade of new faces which are necessities of such change.
   Before I met Burt (in Oct. 2014), I interviewed a half dozen contractors. Some showed irreverence for my space, my schedule, my biggest investment-- or all three. One led me to believe that through the entire process of gutting my 1950's bathroom down to the studs, I'd only be without that toilet for 3 days! (Having never been close to any reno work, I had no basis for disbelieving him.) Some clearly had a stock or standard plan of the vanilla room they'd leave in their wake. Some clearly were in over their heads, once they saw the space and methods used... but were not keen to decline the work. One suggested we combine the 2 rather modest baths into a "spa retreat"-- completely disregarding the reality that we have two teenagers under this roof!! Frankly, I was ready to settle for merely tolerating my contractor.
   Burt Davy is head, shoulders, and waist above the rest! He came in with a positive attitude, a patient ear, a willingness to offer input when requested, and an inspiring-- and not at all oversold-- confidence in his crew. Burt clearly makes thoughtful choices about his crewmen and subs, considering their workmanship, professionalism, and demeanor so that no aspect is left lacking. Everyone who came through my door to work did so with a cheerful, courteous manner, the skills to get their part done well and timely, and the grace to handle the inevitable setbacks, frustrations, and complications which a job of this scope will include.
   Each bathroom took about 3 weeks from start to 90% complete (100% functional); one was completed in Dec. 2014, and the other in Feb. 2015, accommodating various schedule conflicts we had; this timeline was perfectly acceptable to us. Each day the site was left not just livable, but safe and tidy. I was kept informed of whom to expect when, and this was honored faithfully-- with 1 exception near the end of the 2nd bath, when there'd been some crewman changes-- a temporary situation.
   I was so pleased with Burt, his project manager, Rob, and his crew that I am almost looking for another major project to give them!

We have been working on these plans for over a year. They are being very patient and professional with us. We have changed the plans a few times. They are being great about everything.

Called Burt, - I think on a Friday- told him what we wanted, and approx. budget for the job. Monday morning he met with us, providing an itemized plan for the work. We told him that timing was essential, since we expected guests. Within 3 days we had a schedule with starting and completion dates - they finished as the schedule stated: demolition, new fllors, painting, cabinets/counters, appliances all went in smoothly. When there was a minor glitch with a subcontractor, Burt went into action, and had his crew take care of it. They finished on time and within the original budget.
What makes working with Gorilla Builders a pleasure is to know that the "boss" will take care of things. During the work Burt would come by and tell us the general progress and what to expect. While talking to contractors can be quite stressful, these meetings were not only informative but a very pleasaant start of the day.
The other outstanding qualities of Burt are his professional knowledge, and dependability. He will work with you, and give you as much advice as you want. If you need a company that does quility work and you can trust - Gorilla Builders is it.
