Description of Work: After my husband broke his hip, which required a lengthy hospital stay. I had only three days notice from his doctors before my husband's discharge to outfit our multi-level home with new grab bars in bathrooms, new ADA-compliant toilets, and double handrails (with textured paint for traction) on all of the staircases in our house. Under the pressure of time and very stressful circumstances, I phoned Natural Breeze to request their advice and/or recommendation of someone who could assist me right away. Terry Finton, one of the Natural Breeze owners, responded that our needs were significant and immediate, and that Natural Breeze would "drop everything" to help us. Mr. Finton, who happens to be certified to evaluate and outfit a home for assisted living, came to my rescue that same day. At our home, he assessed what we needed and he took charge of the entire project. Via FedEx and Amazon.com he ordered some of the necessary items that were not readily available in town in order to expedite their installation. Mr. Finton also made arrangements with a local plumber to install the new ADA-compliant toilets. Within a total of three days from my initial phone call, everything was installed in our home in time for my husband's hospital discharge. Natural Breeze did an OUTSTANDING job in every context: customer service, including the compassion and support they demonstrated given my situation; the exceptionally high quality of every aspect of their work; and the very reasonable cost of the finished job. I cannot emphasize enough how impressed we were with Natural Breeze's professionalism, fine workmanship, and kindness.

Description of Work: Full bathroom remodel. Everyone at Natural Breeze was easy to work with. The quality of their work is high, which means we probably paid more than we could have had we gone with a "builder grade" remodel, but their care and concern for quality work made the additional cost worth it. It was difficult to get on the schedule for a relatively small project, but worth the wait in the end.

I didn't spend anything with them because their quote was way higher than I was willing to pay. I thought there were slow to respond also. They are overpriced. They were professional.
Description of Work: Natural Breeze Remodeling gave me a quote for exterior painting on our single story house.

Response from Natural Breeze Remodeling
Thank you for the feedback we are always looking to improve. With that said, we turned our quote around within 1 week of the initial phone call and cost is relative. Due to the age of the rental homes you requested we quote we had to include the cost of Lead Safe Work Practices. This is required by law and will add quite a bit to small exterior house paint.

We have been pleased with all the work done at our home by Natural Breeze. Each worker has been professional, pleasant and efficient. There has never been a problem with clean-up. In fact, the area was cleaned each night even though the worker was returning the next day. Contracts and billing from Natural Breeze are extremely detailed, itemizing each part of the job and the material required for that job. Terry Fenton, one of the owners, has helped us in many ways. He has helped us find other contractors to do electrical work, heating and air conditioning, landscaping, etc. Each of those companies referred has done excellent work at our home. Natural Breeze does not pressure a home owner to do work that is not deemed necessary. For example, we suggested that because we were getting several pieces of new siding that it might be a good idea to paint the entire house. Terry told us that in his opinion we could wait until next year for that job. Such honesty is appreciated. We will continue to use Natural Breeze Remodeling whenever we have a need.
Description of Work: We first used Natural Breeze a year ago to repair siding and window casings that showed evidence of dry rot. That same year they power washed and stained our wood fence. This year we had a contract with them to perform a complete inspection of our home including small details such as testing the sump pump, cleaning and oiling ceiling fans, caulking, etc. A professional report was presented in person and explained thoroughly to us. As a result, Natural Breeze replaced more siding on our house. They also installed and painted the trim around our patio.

This was a big job and took about four weeks, with a week or so lost to rainy weather. They were very particular about the materials that were used and twice sent back wood and railing materials that were not acceptable. All hardware and fasteners were new and top grade. No leftovers from other jobs or shop parts. Before any work started we talked with about what we wanted and they provided detailed sketches of what they planned to build. We were able to make a few changes and additions based on these sketches, so that our bid price included what we wanted, and we had very few added items. We always received a quote for any additional items before the work was done. One item that we really liked was that they did a good job of cleaning up at the end of every work day, and they did an excellent job of managing their material deliveries. They had their materials delivered when needed, and they did not use our yard to stockpile material ahead of time. Their foreman checked daily to make sure that the work was being done to our satisfaction. Once all the work was done we had a short list of minor items that needed to be adjusted or finished and this work was completed promptly. We decided to change the deck door from a swing out to a swing in, to open. This wasn't detailed in the plans but this work was done at no additional cost to us. We also asked for a modification to a support post foundation, that would save us several hundred dollars, and they agreed to work with a City Inspector to accommodate our request. They also paid attention to the small details like fitting the sides of the new screen supports to the house, with overlapping corners to hide end but joints. They incorporated our request for a coffee cup ledge in the new railing that worked our just great. One last item, after a recent wind storm we noticed a small hole in one of the new screens, and when we mentioned this, they replaced the screen free of charge, even though the damage was caused by the storm. To us, they went above and beyond what we expected.
Description of Work: They rebuilt our screened porch to replace a flat roof with a sloped standing metal seam roof, replaces large fabric screens with smaller metal screens, removed delaminating composite deck with cedar decking, replaced all wood railing with wood and steel railing, replaced a plastic screen door with a metal door, and built a custom gate at the bottom of our refurbished stairs, and provided a new column support for a corner of the roof. They also stained all the new wood decking and painted the exterior wall side of the porch.

I bought my house several years ago, the first thing I knew I wanted to do was remodel my bathroom. I called Natural Breeze, and three years later, they are still working with me. They did such a great job on my bathroom, I had them remodel my kitchen, fix my deck, and paint the outside of my house. They are professional, courteous and tidy. They show up when they say they will, there is always someone working on your job, and they leave their work site clean Neal Gaston listens to what you want and is able to translate it to his workmen. He has good suggestions too. I have never had them go over budget. When one of the sub-contractors accidently destroyed a printer, Neal replaced it without any problems. They are tad bit expensive, but I think it is worth it because you can trust what they say. I highly recommend them.
Description of Work: Over the past three years, Natural Breeze has replaced a bathtub and commode, and installed new tile and flooring in master bath, has replaced rotten piers, stained and leveled my deck, has stained fence, built a gate to match one that needed replacing, painted outside of house, replaced a window, and installed new counter tops and back splash in kitchen.
