Work itself was acceptable at a fair price. Installers showed no regard for protecting floors and walls from damage from tools and hoses.

Sam Folster is the best of the best without doubt. He rebuilt a custom deck and added a huge ramp for a wheelchair. He is reliable and prices are very reasonable. He not only does decks but is able to do just about anything you need. Highly recommend his professional services.

Carpentry Framing Repair
Baited with low price, then double and tripled cost without justification. I never received any typed invoices detailing their services from Sam or his subcontractors. Sam insisted on painting before construction work were finished, then claimed each drywall patch is my change request. All of his bills were handwritten on a piece of paper with his billing hours and amount owed but no itemized service listed. I requested many times for him to provide itemized invoices detailing him and his sub contractor s services and he never provided them. Requesting to fix 9 drywall patches does not justify a low five figure original estimate to over six figure renovation cost. Contractor requested 20% commission to warranty his sub s work. I have can lights falling from ceiling and missing drywall spots and asked Sam to return to fix them, as his stated warranty covers 1 year labor. He refused and told me to contact electrician myself and wanted to charge me extra for his return. After we had argument, Sam changed his mind and request to fix holes only at no extra charge but nothing else. I asked him not to come back because I rather pay new team with typed invoices instead of getting surprised handwritten bills from him. Contractor has selective hearing, he insisted on collecting payment for services he refused and failed to provide.
Response from S & F Construction Services
"This review is of no merit, the homeowner was heard saying how great everything looked, how fast the project was moving along. I have multiple witnesses to this. She entered a agreement to have her house remodeled at cost plus. total labor +total material + 20% = final cost. She made multiple changes to the project, all of which we accommodated. after all changes were done, she was not happy with the charges. I had nothing to do with what she was being charged by the subs. I do not tell them what they charge, they make up their bills. I just make a commission on their work. she has prevented me from going over all bills for the project and has not allowed me to fix a problem that I did not cause, but she wants to hold me accountable for. All estimates on work were stated as just that estimates only. it was known up front that the actual bill might be different. She agreed to the terms at the start, but does not want to pay what she agreed to. I never changed my rate or did any bate and switch. The rate for my work remained constant throughout the project. All subs charge for what they do and any changes are charged for. She got what she wanted but was not happy with the cost of the multiple changes. I have no control of the subcontractor's charges."

We hired Sam to build a closet in some unused space. The space wasn't your typical square/rectangle and required some angle work to create a usable closet. He did a great job and was able to change our unusable space into usable space that blended in with the surrounding area. He cleaned up the workspace each day prior to leaving and treated our home with care and respect. I would highly recommend Sam for any remodeling projects you may want completed in your home. This is the third project we have had Sam do in our home and would not hesitate to hire him again for any future projects.

Sam was very easy to work with throughout the entire process. He and his crew were punctual, and provided excellent workmanship with attention to detail. The project was a deck rebuild with some non-standard features in which Sam was able to accommodate and it turned out beautiful. This was the second project we have had done by Sam and his crew, and would not hesitate to hire him again for any of our future needs.

Sam Folster was easy to work with and listened to my project needs. He didn't try to sell me more than I wanted. Did an excellent job and cleaned up so I couldn't even tell he had been here. I definitely recommend him for interior trim work - new and repair.

Sam did an amazing job on my window and door replacement, which required the repair of rotted wood for both. Sam was very thorough and I could definitely tell that he has been doing this for years based on the quality of his work. He was very professional and always on time. Everything looks amazing. I will definitely use him for other repair work and upgrades in the future.

Sam has worked on many projects in our house. He is a master carpenter, who is professional, precise and reliable. He is always present on the job to make for smooth delivery. Aside from framing our unfinished basement, bathroom remodels and flooring install Sam recently built us a new deck addition and a Pinterest worthy pergola on top of it!

R and S were very professional, efficient, and respectful. They cleaned up at the end of each work day they were here. They were very flexible with changes and schedule. I did not have any issues with communication when it came to making decisions for the job. They got back to me in a timely fashion and have shown up every time. I am very happy and pleased with the way my bathroom came out. It is exactly what I wanted. I have referred them to family and friends I will also continue to have them come and do work for me in the future.

Exterior Trim Repair
They weren t bad, however the owner was aware my job was small and I felt was deceptive in his pricing. He didn t tell me he expected what he required as a minimum payment for his day. He also didn t come prepared to complete the job, he asked if I had paint (the trim needed to be painted). I think he could do a good job, just understand the cost before you have him complete the job. It changed when he was done because I had him only paint the trim, but it changed the cost of my job by $250 more meeting his minimum fee of $600, not what the job might have been worth.
Response from S & F Construction Services
"I was not at all deceptive with the pricing. I broke the job down into two projects, each with its own cost, so that if she wanted to do one without the other she could. 1. Repairing the damaged corner boards & chalking them. 2. Painting the chimney I asked her if she had the paint so that I could get a exact match; not because I wasn't prepared to complete the job. I painted the corner boards only for her, because she didn't want to paint the whole chimney. Still had to climb that 40' ladder to paint them. That is what cost her the extra money not a daily minimum. I did complete her job just as she asked in one day, just not as cheap as she might have wanted. Sorry but when ya risk your life 40' off the ground, it cost money. i break down all my jobs into projects so that the homeowner knows what they are paying for. Never had any problem with anyone else understanding the bill. We did a good job for a fair price. That's all we can do."

Sam and his partner did a great job with our deck repairs. Although the weather didn't cooperate throughout the project, Sam kept me posted daily on their plans. They showed up when they said they would, completed the work exactly as quoted, and were very polite throughout the process. Highly recommend!

Sam was very good at communicating with me at all times during the work. He would call every time he was going to be coming to my house and even if he was going to be 10 minutes late he would always keep me updated. Great quality and would use them again for projects around my home !!
