+ 3 moreOnly one major issue which had to due with punctuality on the agreed upon start date. This was very unfortunate as I had just retired and the project was to start the next day. I didn't find out until the morning the guys were suppose to arrive. It was delayed from starting on a Wednesday morning to the following Monday. I was bummed and somewhat depressed as I had an opportunity to go to Florida had I known ahead of time. Knowing Walt's attention to detail this was disappointing to him as well. Other than that the only other issue I typically have with contractors is clean up at the end of day. I would need to make sure I vacuumed the garage (they used it to work) to make sure their were no nails and general sawdust etc....also the inside could have been cleaned up better daily as well. The guys were always professional, courteious and easy to work with. I was impressed at the relationship they all had with Walt and appeared to work with him as a crew for many years. Pretty unusual from my experience. While it wasn't a huge project it took close to 7 weeks but didn't feel like it. I am very happy with my new walk-in closet and the feel of the landing with the new lighting and alcove where the old closet was. I would say it was one of the best construction projects I have experienced! I gave him two referrals as a result, which I have never done with a contractor.
Description of Work: Enclosed a second floor balcony to create a master closet space. They also demolished a old small closet on the 2nd floor landing, installed new window and recessed lights on the landing. General spruce up on the outside of the house as well to include shutters, lighting and painting of the chimney.

+ 1 moreAll work was perfect. And if we had any concern about any aspect of the job, it was addressed, and if need be, remedied. One of the things we really appreciate about this company is that they really listen and let the owner drive the project. We have worked with Maxson Remodeling for two projects 14 years apart and on each one we found the project managers to be friendly and easy to work with. Mr. Maxson himself was often at the project and came whenever we had a concern. We also found that the subcontractors that Mr. Maxson chose were competent and personable. During the project, we made several changes that were accepted with grace and immediately implemented. Ultimately we are immensely pleased with the result of the remodel. Mr. Maxson listened, and provided us with great service. The result was even better then we had envisioned. This remodel involved wall removals, plumbing and electrical changes.
Description of Work: Mr. Maxson himself looked over our project, gave ideas, listened to our concerns and ultimately found some issues under our house that needed to be taken care of before we could start our project. They handled that issue and presented us with a very itemized (much more detailed then any other estimate we received. The estimate was a bit more then some of the other estimates but was so detailed that we felt there would be little deviation from the estimate unless WE made changes. Also, we had used Maxson Remodeling 14 years prior and had been so pleased with the work and professionalism that we ultimately chose them for this project as well. This was a kitchen remodel.

+ 9 moreWalt Maxson and everyone on his crews and subcontractors are professional in every way. Competent, punctual, clean, neat, thorough, friendly, easy to work with, and the kind of people you want to have in your home for projects large and small. They designed and built a large master bedroom and bath and walk in closet for us. Also built a garage addition / workshop which involved wall removal and structural rebuilding. They also added a large deck to back of home and subcontracted landscaping and exterior wall building. Walt and office staff and specialists (electricians, plumbers, wood flooring installers, concrete workers, carpenters, dry wallers) all are just excellent workers. That is a tribute to Walt Maxson desire to do work that will bring clients back again and again! You will not find a better remodeling contractor!//
Description of Work: Designed and built two additions to our home. As well as doing interior wall removal and door replacement.

+ 3 moreCame as promised to provide estimate and multiple options. When decision was made to proceed, gave us a date to start, and showed up as expected on time. Employees worked nonstop to get the work done (it was January after all), and completed it on time. Did excellent cleanup afterward. Owner then came out afterward to inspect the work before being paid. All employees were professional, polite and hard working. Walt Maxson remodeled our kitchen, dining room and living room ten years ago, and I would trust that company to do any kind of home maintenance, repair or construction. Good people and excellent workmanship
Description of Work: Installed new windows and window framing in a large 15x30 sunroom.

+ 1 moreMr. Maxson provided an estimate in a timely manner. The work began shortly thereafter. The workmen were prompt and efficient. They contained the construction dust and provided a thorough clean-up. The final product is outstanding. I have used Maxson Construction many times and they always provide quality service and an outstanding product at a fair price.
Description of Work: We had a traditional brick fireplace and hearth in our family room removed and replaced with a marble fireplace and granite floor hearth. The re-build included the installation of an electrical receptical and TV cable jack. A television was mounted over the fireplace. The crown molding was removed, saved for re-use and re-installed.

+ 2 moreOverall: excellent. Maxson Remodeling offers true service, with professional, polite, prompt, excellent craftsmen. They respond quickly to any question, arrive on time, work diligently, clean up (as much as is possible) after themselves. How great it would be if they could do all this at a lower price. :)
Description of Work: 1. Moved laundry area to 2nd floor, requiring demolishing 2 bedroom entries and rebuilding them, along with the laundry closet. 2. Remodeled 2nd floor bathroom from floor to ceiling, including "floating" damaged walls, new tub/shower, new vanity, sink, and countertop, lighting, heated floor. 3. "Floated" damaged walls in main floor half bath, installed new vanity, sink, countertop, lighting. 4. Added beam and supports to garage to provide stability upstairs, prevent sagging. Repaired walls and ceiling. 5. Patched holes in wall from old laundry area and removed the 220 line there; this was not even in the job price but was a very nice extra for us.

+ 7 moreExtremely knowledgeable company concerning engineering and architecture especially as they concern structure integrity. I contacted the top 5 contractors per Angie's List. Mr. Maxwell was the first to respond and the first to quote. He was extremely thorough in his evaluation of the structure and the new loads it would take on with a 48 x 48 skylight with built in blinds and a structured tunnel that was about 8 feet high and had an opening of 80 x 48. After building several custom built and complicated homes I was so surprised to his knowledge level and time of his inspection, especially since it involved spending so much time in a 120F attic and then crawling through the crawlspace. His start date came within one day of his estimate and the job was competed one day early. There was one problem where the boards were placed to protect the granite and stove top must have shifted and because a small crack in the ceramic cooktop. A new $1000 cook top was delivered within 2 days, very impressive ? I expected to have the stove top sent out to be repaired which was something we would not have like but the company did not even ask to this. Their price was very competitive and probably low considering all the extra bracing that was put into the structure. The remaining kitchen remodel with new drywall and removal of dry paper went as planned. Very good communication with all questions answered promptly. I hope to use them again next year in a 3000 sq ft addition.

home remodeling
+ -1 moreMr. Maxson was very nice and I feel if I had chosen to go with his company they would have done a good and very thorough job. However, I chose another company because although he warned me in advance that his estimate would be more detailed and higher than most others, I hadn't anticipated that it would be quite that high ($5000 higher than the two next highest estimates!) I also have to grade them down on responsiveness because he told me it would probably be a week before I received the estimate, and it was actually 3 weeks.

lighting, remodeling, water heater repair, home remodeling
+ 2 moreOur kitchen was over 30 years old and really showing wear & tear. Decided to have it completely remodelled (in spite of husband swearing that everything was just fine). Also decided to replace the hi-flow toilets and the original water heater (which still worked fine but for how much longer?) Mr. Maxson had done work for us before & we had been very happy with his work. All the work went smoothly and all the workers were super professional. I felt sorry for the electrician crawling in our attic some of the hottest days of the summer, and the plumbers had a difficult time with the new water heater because of installing it in a small space. Never heard a word of complaint from any of them. I would definatly use Mr. Maxson again. Maybe a little more expensive, but he uses the best and you get what you pay for.
Description of Work: New cabinets, new flooring in kitchen and downstairs bath, new lighting & whole house smoke detectors, new water heater and toilets. Painting and appliances were not included in the contract.
