I have been using the company for about 8 years. They are a great company and wonderful work with. I believe they can handle any project big or small. The staff is very knowledgeable and polite. They go above and beyond as far as cleaning up after themselves and taking care of things in my home. I typically contact them through email and it is easy to schedule a service when I need. If I have had an emergency they can come out right away.
Description of Work: I hired the company to do a major addition to my home. They most recently leveled the front porch and leveled and enclosed a bay window. They have repaired squirrel damaged windows.

We have used Building Vision twice now for home renovation projects. I can't recommend them highly enough. We would not use anyone else for any future project. Paul Baliles worked with our architect's design and also provided numerous interior design improvements and tweaks. The carpenter who did the new construction and framing is a perfectionist; this paid dividends after the interior walls went up because everything ended up straight and level. The edges and lines are straight and sharp where planes of walls and ceiling meet. Building Vision also has an excellent tiler. Our bathroom had tile on the floor and halfway up the walls, as well as in the shower stall. He and Paul worked out carefully how the several varieties of tile we chose would transition between each other gracefully before they started in. Building Vision's sub-contractors all were competent, timely and were carefully supervised. We had Building Vision in our home for months on this project, and they were always neat and respectful of our time and home. Once they started work, they worked steadily until the job was completed—no disappearing act for days in the middle of the job. Five years later we've had no trouble with any part of the work Building Visions did. Again, on our second project, the work was done quickly and the tile work was perfect.
Description of Work: Our first project was a $100K expansion and master bath project in 2008, done when Building Vision was a fairly new company. Our entryway was altered inside and out, requiring new windows and matching the hardwood floor. A roof over a new front porch provided the floor for a new master bath above. The job required nearly everything: concrete work, brickwork, window and door installation, hardwood flooring, new construction and framing, roofing, insulation, plumbing, electrical, HVAC ductwork, drywall, cabinets, marble countertops, and tiling. The company has since done larger projects that I have toured. Our second project was much smaller, powder room walls and fixtures in 2010.
