We serve both residential and commercial, we have been constructing and remodeling for over ten years now. The customer satisfaction is our goal,

"Worst tile job I have ever seen!! Cal recommended marble for the kitchen floor which is the worst kind of tile for a kitchen it stains scratched and it high maintenance. also the tile is uneven it has chips because it looks like the spacers where broken off. they installed a backsplash with beveled edges and put so much grout that you couldn't even see the beveled edges it took me 2 days to scrap out all the grout. They also had to come out twice to fix the strainer in the kitchen sink!! They installed a new tiled shower and those tiles are also uneven also the shower floor puddles in the center. I asked them to frame out the mirrors in both my bathrooms and they screwed that up but I ended up paying for the oak trim and ended up cleaning up after them. I have reached out to Cal several times and at first he told me he would come and talk to me about the kitchen floor and now he won't even respond to my text messages."

At Bustos Contracting we are a family owned business that treats every project like if it were our own house. We offer discounts to our first time customers. We offer quality work and will make sure your dream project is to your expectations.

"Absolute worst decision to go with this group of scammers. This is not a company, just bunch of pathetic liars especially Conan Bustos. Just like the other reviewer said, they came in under budget and did everything to get the job. It was an entire home remodeling project. If I go into details of what went wrong and what they did throughout 6 months this review will probably be 10 pages long. Every single day was a lie. Every small thing was a lie. No one was living in the house, day in and day out they lied about what was being done, when they come in, when they leave. And just like textbook liars, every time when confronted with evidence they would do anything for you to believe that you are wrong. Whenever it was undeniable they he would claim that one of his family members were in hospital , or someone died, or another pathetic lie. As for the job itself, the quality of their work is nonexistent. Every single thing they did had to be redone including putting plumber’s putty when they couldn’t run it properly, running electrical wires in plastic tubes that are not meant to be used in homes for many reasons including safety, wrong installation of 14 ft beam. Never used a level, every single 2x4 was unleveled. Every tile he out in is unleveled. They would paint the ceiling without patching, without Finishing structural work. It’s just too much to mention in a single review. At the end, they run away from job site with big chunk of my money and tons of problems left behind. Good thing is I have evidence of all of these in text messages and emails as well as recordings and photos. Now that I hired an actual contractor who got the job done in 2 months, I am preparing paperwork to sue these scammers. What’s funny is that they realized they are getting exposed, shut down their Facebook page with lots of negative reviews and opened another one. At the same time they are running ads on all Facebook groups in the area trying to scam more people. Do yourself a favor and stay away from these people!!!"

"2 months after the manhole was rebuilt cracks started appearing in the concrete pad around the manhole. The concrete was rated 10,000 psi and the work guaranteed for life. 6 emails from the purchasing manager and controller and numerous phone calls over 2 months failed to elicit the courtesy of a callback. The fear is the water will infiltrate the manhole shell through the cracks and damage the new manhole. The work cost $8,775.00. T Dotson's Draintech does not stand behind their work. They run and hide!"

Drain Cleaning questions, answered by experts

A sewage smell in your crawl space is usually from a damaged or clogged pipe leaking sewer gasses or actual sewage underneath your home, but there are some other common causes. Moisture, from poor or damaged encapsulation or a malfunctioning sump pump, can harbor mold and bacteria, causing a musty smell. Pests can also get stuck in your crawl space and die, which causes a sewage-like odor.

No, some window wells aren’t connected to drainage systems and instead are partially filled with gravel or crushed stone. In that case, water entering the well will drip down through the stone and disperse into the soil below. Window well drains might be required in areas with heavy rainfall or expansive soil—the lack of them could lead to foundation damage without a proper drainage system.

There are several signs that can indicate your leach lines are broken, failing, or in need of repair, including puddles of water or a marshy consistency to the ground above or around the pipes, slow drainage or plumbing backups inside your home, and noticeable odors or gurgling sounds coming from your leach field. Keeping your septic system properly maintained, including having your septic tank pumped at regular intervals, can help ensure your leach lines stay in good working order for a long time.

In the majority of cases, homeowners insurance will not cover a main sewer line root clog. The reason is that most insurance companies consider tree root damage to sewer lines as common wear and tear, which is also preventable. However, you may be able to buy optional add-on coverage, such as "service line coverage" or "sewer line endorsements," that would protect against root damage to your sewer line.

If you drop jewelry down your sink, it can cause a clog, especially if it accumulates other debris on its way down. However, that is the least of your worries if you drop your favorite jewelry down your drain. If your gold band goes tumbling down the sink drain, don’t panic—refrain from running more water down the sink, and follow the steps above.
