"Dave was great.  The day I called asking about obtaining a price quote, he was able to show up at my door an hour later.  I just bought the house and I didn't know that I wanted to get it painted until I actually was in possession.  I wanted to get it painted before I moved in, but mid-December was a busy time of the year for him. Dave gave me the news that I would probably have to wait until mid-January to get the house painted.  I was understanding of this, and decided to still continue getting the price quote. At the time I only asked for 3 bedrooms, the living room and family room to be painted as I was trying to be conscious of costs and my budget; and once we were done he gave me a fair quote.  When I told him I would accept his offer for the service, he told me that he would also paint my kitchen and 4th bedroom.  I was ecstatic!! To top it off, he then added that he was going to do everything in his power to start my house as soon as possible so that it would be fully painted before I was ready to move in.  So not only did he paint more than what I could have asked for at a fair price, but he also was able to finish the entire house within a week of me asking for the service.  I don't know if that is how he treats all his customers, but he really made me feel special, and he was able to bring me more than what I could have asked for.  In addition, he really helped me out in figuring out a good color scheme for the rooms.  I would highly recommend Dave and AOM to anyone looking for painting services.  They do floors also, and he's already on my list of who I would want to complete that service as well.

"The whole Regency family was a dream to work with. They paid attention to details and responded quickly and very professionally to all of my questions. So nice to be able to sit back and have no doubts that the job is done well with no hiccups. Would totally recommend Regency to anyone looking to build a quality garage."

"We had a bump. We had a water line that burst from the street to the house about three years ago. The person that did the line never smoothed out the yard. We had that fixed. We had railroad timbers that was lining our garden taken out. Grass put in in the garden in the back. Some planting, weeding, mulch everywhere, tree trimming. A quite a few things. We had two other estimates and they all had completely different ideas. Some just wanted to put stone everywhere which we did not want. They were most expensive but they were the more creative where they put plants on the south end of our house. The other two people did not and their prices were almost as much. I think they would have responded faster but we had a lot of rain here. They had some family issues and so did we so it was later than we wanted. If they said they were going to be here, they were. There was two guys and they were here a couple of different days. Maybe four hours each time. I like their work. It is a husband and wife team. They are very friendly. They do listen to what you want."

"I left an email on Monday night and didn't get a response so I called the next day just in case my email didn't get through. I talked to John and he was great. Gave me an estimate over the phone and was out the next day, which was huge for me since I was leaving for vacation that evening after work and had somebody house sitting. John showed up within his scheduled time slot and did the job as he said he would do and even worked around my Corvette that my wife was afraid to move. The only reason I didn't give them an A for quality is that I think the springs that were on the door before were more heavy duty and the door doesn't seem to go up as fast as it did, and I should have requested a heavier spring. I will recommend them as well as call them in the future if I have any garage door needs.

"They made a mistake when fixing the gutters and when made aware of the mistake they came back and fixed them right away."

"Green T showed up on time and the gentleman explained everything he was going to do and asked if I had any questions. He went to work and did a wonderful job. I certainly recommend Green T, for Wood floors."

"We had the absolute pleasure of working with Nick Martinez on a master bathroom with a steam shower remodel project. We would most definitely use him again and would highly recommend him to anyone considering a project. Background We had been planning this project for a few years. We spoke to no less than 5 contractors over that period of time. The first three contractors were turn-key, full-service design firms. It was uncanny how close those three companies came on price quotes (more on that later) and that the price was in the range of a new sports car. While these companies offer nice showrooms and hand-holding through the process, we felt that we had a pretty clear idea on what we wanted. We decided to look more at an “a la carte” approach – where we pick the design and materials and sperate contractor to handle the installation. We had two contractors – Nick and another - offer a price that was exactly the same – to the penny. (Turns out they all subscribe to a database for estimates that uses project scope, square footage, and address to estimate a price. That’s why all of the contractors were close in pricing.) We decided to go with Nick for these reasons: - Portfolio of similar projects. His showcase of projects is excellent and similar to what we wanted. - Great references. His references raved about him and one even invited us to their house to see the work. - Superior knowledge. Nick obviously had a lot of experience and good ideas about our project. (I think he’s older than he looks.) He was also the only contractor that recognized that our steam shower would be 220 volts and required special wiring. - Included Painting. Every other contractor required that we handle the painting separately. - Wholesale pricing on materials. Nick was agnostic about where we bought materials. But he has relationships with local suppliers. Most contractors have you pick your materials and then pay the contractor. Nick had us work directly with the suppliers and pay the supplier – at his discounted wholesale rates. Some materials were more than 40% cheaper than retail. That was a huge unexpected saving on the overall project. We also used HomeDepot for some of the other basic materials. When the contract started, working with Nick and his team was a pleasure. An unexpected surprise was how he worked around our schedules. Nick arrived after we were done preparing for work. Then he would drape all of our furniture and carpeting to keep things clean. At the end of the day, Nick was usually done before we returned from work. All of his tools were moved out of the way and draped as well. Remodeling can be a huge inconvenience. Nick realized that we needed to live here and he worked hard to minimize the impact on our lives during construction. Another major factor in our satisfaction with Nick was that he had a lot of experience and ideas. He had suggestions about details that would really add to the projects appearance and usability. Minor details like slight slopes on sills so water would not pocket there, size and location of niches, penciling around tile edges, placement of lighting and shower fixtures, etc... And, because he was agnostic about the materials, we didn’t feel that he was trying to push us one way or another to more make money. We had some additional side projects that we were able to get done at the same time. We felt that his pricing was fair and reasonable for those scope changes. Nick also accepted mobile payment (Chase Zelle) which was convenient. There was one setback that had to do with one of the suppliers. They didn’t provide us with all of the right materials. The impact was that it set Nick back three days because materials needed to be special ordered before the project could proceed. Nick did not charge us for that delay. I think the way that he handled it was very professional. He even got the supplier to give us the extra materials ($600) for free because it was their mistake. We honestly felt that Nick had our best interest in mind. He’s called several times to check-in with us to see how things are going. We sincerely look forward to our next project with him.
