Very simple, very easy. Made a call, they came out and gave an estimate. They finished the work on time and it looked great.

He came by, he checked and everything, but the price was too high for me.

It went okay. The cost for the work was by far the best out of all of the quotes we received. The man that came to the house to give the estimate impressed my husband as being very knowledgeable and capable. He was not a salesperson, but someone that sounded like they knew what they were talking about.
Once we decided to go with Stash it seemed like it took a long time to actually get them scheduled to come and perform the work, but I think we had unrealistic expectations that they would be able to schedule us in the next few weeks. In reality it took about a month and a half to get an actually date scheduled for the work to start.
The pump and fan installation were done in one day with no issue.
The tiling work was great. Only issue that arose was when the worker tiled around vanity and toilet instead of pulling them out. I would not have caught it myself, but my husband went down there to inspect it once the man was gone for the day and noticed. I found it unsettling that he would have decided to take that shortcut, especially considering that pulling and replacing the vanity and toilet were specifically mentioned in the quote. My husband called the project supervisor and left a message that it needed to be redone according to the quote. The project supervisor never returned the phone call. Instead, the worker came in the next day and asked my husband what the problem was. My husband told him he had to pull the vanity and toilet, not just tile around them. The worker explained that he had decided not to pull the vanity sink because he was concerned it might break. My husband had him pull it anyhow. The issue was fixed that day.
We ended up replacing the toilet, instead of putting the old one back in. The worker said he would haul away the toilet. Unfortunately, it did not fit in his truck so he told us he would come back for it. After two days, we figured he was never coming back for it. Not a big deal though, we just put it out with the rest of the garbage.
All in all, not a horrible experience. The floor looks awesome.

Good. The material is great, the work was done professionally and they finally repaired the mystery leak that has plagued us for the past 8 years.... other contractors did not.

I am a single woman that need another bathroom added and minor updated changes ....So I contracted Stash ...Big, Big, Mistake, It was a disaster, along with over three months of h*** for a small project. Wrong shower installed. Wrong toilet installed. Wrong flooring installed. Every week I had to have them take out the wrong and put in correct product. All material was discussed and written down in office, but not one of the material I chose made it to my project site. Stash Construction tried pushing crap, rejects, or 1980 flooring on me!! FOR BIG MONEY!
After replacing flooring, for the second time, they put the old cheap crappy molding in, I had purchased new molding for bathroom..It disappeared!! Yes stolen! Electrical outlets installed east west, north south... no reason.. plain .sloppy..I will just say... electrician. a reject like everything else that Stash tried pushing off on me..FOR BIG MONEY!!!!!
Can not hang bathroom mirror flush to back of sink counter due to electrical box positioned wrong..and this is a 7 x 9 bathroom, plenty of room to make it smooth..they had no clue what to do.
Door to bathroom had to come from a garbage dump they pulled it out from. When installed the door knob it is 29" from the ground.!! Painters treated my clean basement that has living quarters, like a broiler room!!...Mud, glue, paint spilled and tracked everywhere, on floor, stairs, new utility tub, HD washer and dryer...and I left sheets down there to have them use ..I never new when workers would show up sometimes for 2 days then not for 2 weeks..They even had the nerve to use my tools, and my supplies and yes electrical items missing, gone, STOLEN!
Wood railing /spindles, were not the ones I picked out, again, that all had to be replaced, and re-installed, Installer had NO clue how to incorporate with wall plan..left holes where he had to use saws all to correct mistakes..Never patched, painted or cleaned up any messes or errors!!!

They went through a two or three step process, with what they were going to do, and then the following week they sent out a man to actually do the work and he did it. I was at my insurance agent a couple of months before this and I noticed that they had some business cards there from Stash. They do all other kinds of work too. I am happy with the work they did, no problems at all. They cleaned up their mess, and they were very honest and respectful. They were very prompt and responding to my request, and they sent a man out to give me an estimate. He said he will get back in touch with me by e-mail and he gave me the estimate by e-mail and then I was able to contact him by e-mail and accept their offer, and everything went very smoothly. They quoted a fair price. They were right on time and the guy did a very good job.

We chose STASH Construction for four reasons:
1. They were highly reviewed and rated.
2. They are local.
3. They were listed as a "preferred" company by our insurance company, The Hartford.
4. They were significantly lower in their estimate for the non-covered work, compared to two other highly reviewed companies.
All contacts with the company were handled in a professional and business-like manner; from the
first phone contact with the office, several visits with Josh, the estimator, even interacting with the workers on the crews, especially Mike, who accommodated some special requests, including the follow up visit to perform the final touch-up and detailing.
The work was done according to the agreed upon schedule and price. To help in our decision of roof shingle type and color, they provided online photos and addresses of completed jobs so that we could see the work for ourselves. Some special requests were also made to Josh such as: cutting extra vent holes along the entire length of the house soffits, which was not a part of the claim, and for which there was no charge; installing a bath vent and flashing, again no charge; and finally, the special and careful attention which Josh applied to the color matching and hand painting of the very visible chimney flashing. This special attention to detail and to the attempt to satisfy this client made a very positive impression on me.
I approached the process of finding a contractor and then dealing with the daily oversight of the details of the project with great concern. The reviews and advice provided on Angie's List greatly simplified my work in this case. I will certainly contact STASH Construction first for my upcoming interior remodeling projects. Based on their fine work and the overall excellent experience, I do highly recommend them.

Out of the 3 companies I called, they were the first to call me back and came out the next day. The gentleman went on the roof, accessed the problem, gave me a price, then went to get the parts he needed, He was back promptly and did the repairs. Charged $400 and said the estimate I got from another company weeks prior was for repairs NOT needed; other company's estimate was $900.
The gentleman was Stash was professional, cordial and I have had no problems since. I would definitely use them again in the future.

Josh & his crew are honest, respectful young men. They were always on time, performed the work efficiently and cleaned the
area thoroughly. Josh and Aaron went out of their way to make sure I approved their work. Very satisfied. Will probably
hire them to do future projects.

We hired Stash Construction in April with a finish date of 2 - 3 weeks. Unfortunately, due to the rainy weather and some uncontrollable situations, the project actuallly took more like 5 weeks which, in my experience with other contractors, was pretty punctual! Josh was our sales rep and he was VERY accommodating as well as Brock, our project manager. They were always anxious to make us happy and do a great job. Having been involved with $1M+ projects before, this project went very smoothly and my husband and I are pleased with the results. All of the workers were professional and personable and truly wanted to do a great job. Only a couple of cons here which included a crack in the newly poured cement (within 1.5 weeks of the pour!) Josh, Brock and the rest of the folks at Stash bent over backwards to make things acceptable for us and it was a refreshing surprise. Also, communication broke down a little toward the end of the project in regards to letting us know when parts of the job were going to be worked on and on some finishing touches. All-in-all, it was a great experience and I look forward to working with them again!

Had a great experience with Stash Construction. They were quick to respond, easy to communicate with, and worked like I would expect. There is a good reason they have been around 30 some years. My roof looks great and zero leaks! Thanks! A+

Stash and the crew were always available in person, by phone, or email. The crew was great around kids and pets. The workers were friendly and explained the work that was going on and kept on task. We had a great overall experience from the free and fast estimate to the excellent work that was done to our home. We would definitely call them again!

Replaced shingles on my roof. They used shingles that were light grey when my roof is dark grey. They told me it is the exact same color which it clearly isn't. And, the date is of this month because they even told me since the shingles were the same color they would blend after a year, well, its been a few seasons and no color change has occurred. It was like if they told me it enough times I would believe it. They wouldn't re-do it (at that time). In MY own opinion, I think they just used shingles left over from another job. Also, the price. I was mislead. Beware, in my opinion they told me what I wanted to hear and it wasn't what was. Really disappointed.
OH, SO I POSTED THIS ON HERE AND THEN RECEIVED A LETTER IN THE MAIL FROM A LAWYER STATING THAT IF I DON'T REMOVE THIS POST FURTHER ACTION WILL OCCUR AS DEFAMATION OF CHARACTER AND FALSIFYING INFORMATION. THEY ALSO WANTED TO ALL OF THE SUDDEN FIX WHAT THEY HAD DID WRONG (THIS WAS STATED OVER A PHONE CALL) NOW THAT I'M POSTING IT ON SOCIAL MEDIA AND REPORTING THEM TO THE BBB. I DON'T WANT THEM TO FIX IT, I WANT TO MAKE SURE EVERY TIME SOMEONE COMES TO MY HOME THEY SEE THE POOR JOB THAT WAS DONE. AND, I WANT TO WARN EVERYONE OF WHAT COULD HAPPEN IF THEY ARE NOT CAREFUL. THEY WILL NEVER BE WELCOMED ON MY PROPERTY AGAIN, SO, I'M NOT SEEKING ANYTHING BUT MAKING SURE THAT PEOPLE BECOME AWARE. PLEASE CHECK OUT THE PICTURE AS IT SPEAKS FOR ITSELF. IT SHOULD HAVE BEEN REDONE RIGHT AWAY.
OH, AND THERE IS TONS MORE I COULD PUT ON HERE ABOUT HOW HORRIBLE I THINK IT WAS WORKING WITH THEM BUT THERE ISN'T ENOUGH TIME IN THE WORLD, IN MY OPINION. ALSO, IN MY OPINION, JUST MAKE SURE YOU GET EVERYTHING IN WRITING FROM QUOTES TO WARRANTIES!! PLEASE LEARN FROM MY LESSON. YES, I AM SCORNED AS THIS WAS MY FIRST EXPERIENCE WORKING WITH A CONTRACTOR, I WILL PROBABLY NEVER TRUST A CONTRACTOR EVER AGAIN AND IT HURTS KNOWING THAT PEOPLE CAN GET AWAY WITH CERTAIN THINGS. AND YES, THIS IS ALL BASED OFF MY OPINIONS BUT I ADDED A PICTURE JUST TO SHOW THE DIFFERENCE IN COLOR OF THE ROOF. AND, I WOULD HAVE POSTED ON HERE SOONER BUT I DIDN'T WANT TO RUIN THE CHANCE OF HAVING MY WARRANTIES FILLED IF SOMETHING WENT WRONG. BUT, SINCE I HAVE BEEN FIXING THE MISTAKES THUS FAR BY MYSELF, I FEEL I NEED TO WARN MY PEERS.

Response from Stash Construction
"Member, we are sorry for your experience. However, there are a few important details that have been left out of your version of the events. My response is inline: Approximate Cost: $4,700.00 Stash: The cost bid to do the entire slope of the roof was $4200 to include all other work stated below. She chose to do work totaling $2919.00 Description Of Work: I had some work done on my roof. I may be off on the pricing! Stash: She had us perform many more tasks than identified here, for far less money then noted. Please read below. Member Comments: Replaced shingles on my roof. Stash: She had us remove three skylights, reframe the voids, re-roof, reflash around entire roof, perform some maintenance around the chimney and some other items like permits, dumpsters, etc…(total cost $2919) They used shingles that were light grey when my roof is dark grey. They told me it is the exact same color which it clearly isn't. Stash: Although the color of shingles on her home were no longer available, she chose the color with the help of a roofer and his assistant. Once the shingles were selected, the project manager was notified as he was on-site. And, the date is of this month because they even told me since the shingles were the same color they would blend after a year, well, its been a few seasons and no color change has occurred. Stash: Please see the attached pictures. The orientation is off because there were taken on the roof…but the color is clearly much lighter in them. These were taken in November of last year when the work was performed. In MY own opinion, I think they just used shingles left over from another job. Stash: The shingles were ordered from Allied Supply in Merrillville according to her selection Also, the price. I was mislead. Stash: She was quoted a price of $4200 to re-roof the entire slope and remove three skylights, reframe the voids, re-roof, reflash around entire roof, perform some maintenance around the chimney and some other items like permits, dumpsters, etc… Stash: In order to save money, she chose to only replace the portion of the roof that covered up to the voids left by the skylights. That is why the distinct line is apparent in her picture. In response to our lawyer: Member, Our lawyer did reach-out regarding the posts. As noted, the accounts you’ve represented are not complete and do not share the actual events. Since we have offered to rectify the situation and that offer has been declined, our hope is that you choose to accurately portray the events here and with visitors to your home. Once again, we are very sorry for your experience. Our 30 year record in business and our long history with a BBB A+ rating stand on their own. As with all home owners that become clients, we are willing to visit and check the home for warranty issues or defects… we can also make some suggestions on how to match the rest of the slope if aesthetics are your main concern."

We had a house fire caused by electrical wiring in the attic. Stash Construction was on a recommended list of companies which our insurance company provided for fire damage repair. Stash has a good relationship with our insurance company, so I was able to initiate repairs through my insurance agent. This made our needed fire repairs a much smoother process. Immediately, Josh Milton of Stash Construction contacted me. We walked through the house, and we discussed what needed to be done. Josh kept everything moving smoothly. I could contact him with questions via text, email, and calls, and he always made himself available. Upon request, he would meet me at the home throughgout the process. Josh worked with me and my insurance provider to help me get the most out of the restoration that had to be done. He did an excellent job with communication and quality. I would say that he treated me like a person, not just a client. After it is all said and done, my wife and ai have never been happier with our house. Stash did and excellent job at going above and beyond in their service. I highly recommend Stash Construction! John Cole

There was storm damage to my house. They came out and did a temporary fix while waiting for the insurance claim to process. They sent out plenty of workers to have the roof stripped & re-shingled in 2 days. Then they came in and did the repairs on the inside (drywall, paint) in another 2 days. They also came back a week later when additional damage was noticed & fixed that promptly.

I would highly recommend. All work was complete within one month of initial call. During every step they kept me informed of progress and concerns. The crew cleaned the area ever afternoon of siding, nails, etc. They even went out of their way to assist me with an unrelated chore of lifting an item.
