Carmar Remodeling & Handyman Services

This guy obviously doesn't need the work. He basically put me off and never contacted me again.

He seemed very likeable and professional to begin with. Said he was busy but would work us in on the weekends as he really wanted to do the job. He ordered the supplies and had them delivered within the week. We payed for them. The stuff sat in front of our house for two weeks. He finally started, coming on a Sunday, arriving to start work at 10am. Porch faces west, which my husband warned him it gets hot in afternoon. So, he only worked til about 2 because it got too hot. Then we had some really hot humid weather, so he couldn't work at all. It took him nearly two months to finally get it finished. Only came on Sundays til the end. Said he would work every day til finished------well he worked one, skipped two then one, skip one and then finished up. I would not consider him a professional at all. A professional does not leave his tools and equipment here and ask us to charge his batteries so they are ready when he returns. Never knew for sure when he was returning. A professional does not become upset because you do not wish him to use your restroom. A professional knows what he needs for the job and has it with him. He had to leave to get sponges to wipe off grout. Also he wanted to borrow towels for the same purpose and then wanted me to wash them so he could reuse them. That to me is not a professional. To top it all, he did the worst tile job I have ever seen. Anybody that has seen it has said the same thing. Tiles are uneven, big grout gaps, little or nonexistent gaps. AND.....he added something to the grout besides water and did not get it wiped off the tiles in time. There is grout on the tiles that won't come off and now we must hire someone to try to fix it. It is the sloppiest grout job we have ever seen. I would never recommend him to anybody. I guess this is all for naught because he is moving from the area. I wish his reviews could follow him so other people could be warned. The only thing this does is make me feel better for having told someone.

He made mistakes and I had to hire someone to fix them. He did not clean up after himself at the end of the day. He made verbal threats to the resident.

Carl did a great job.

lady that answered the phone said they had no time for me

The flooring turned out really well. He did a real good job. He did go a little over the estimated price of $650.00 it was a little over $775.00. He went around the tile with trim did not leave room for vanity to slide in or the trim on the doors.

Carl came and surveyed the situation and assured me that he could repair the damaged areas of my sheet vinyl flooring with the extra material that I had on hand. He asked for a down payment of 10% and then went to pick up the materials needed to repair the floor. He returned the next day and did a great job of removing the damaged areas and replacing them with an exact fit with pieces he cut out from my extra material. After gluing them in, you could not see where he had done the work. It looked perfect. It had to set for 24 hours. He came back the next day and sealed the seams. Again, it takes 24 hours to set. He came back on the third day and removed my rubber floor molding. It was tricky as I have wallpaper butting the molding. He removed the old molding without any damage to the wallpaper. I was extremely happy about that. He then purchased the wood replacement moldings and did a very good job on installing it. I was very pleased with his work. He has all the tools and talent to probably handle any job needed around the house. I am thinking of hiring him to refinish my living room hardwood floors in the spring.

Carl shows up as promised, and gives you a full days work, with excellent results.
