After Fernando removed old flooring, he found hard-to-remove glue on the subfloor. He took time to carefully remove the old glue using a hot gun. Everything he did was done thoughtfully and meticulously. After new flooring was installed, he choose to return to improve one detail, so everything would be done perfectly. Fernando is honest and pleasure to deal with. I highly recommend him.

Couldn't have gone any smoother. He arrived on time and went right to work. He completed the work promptly and performed a thorough cleanup. If similar services are needed in the future, I would definitely rehire him.

Excellent work at a decent price by an honest guy! From start to finish, Fernando was punctual, communicative, and professional. His pride in doing a good job was obvious. He completed everything on the list, as well as a few things he detected along the way, at the agreed-upon price and cleaned up beautifully at the end of each day.

Fernando responded promptly and gave us a very reasonable estimate for the work. He followed through and came to do the work exactly when he said he would. He is a perfectionist and did an excellent job. He told us what he would be doing and how, gave us options and proudly showed us each element of his work.

I had hired Fernando for some work last year and was completely satisfied, so I called him again for this small project. Once again he came out promptly to assess things and had great ideas to fix the problem. He also did a few extras such as filling foundation cracks with mortar and securing a cable wire that had been hanging loosely. He spent at least half a day, did great work, and cleaned up afterward. Fernando Fonseca will my first phone call for any more home repairs.

We contacted four contractors for three jobs in our around our basement. All four looked at the work. One never returned an estimate. Another (with an Angie's List A grade) gave us a prompt estimate for the total but never responded to our request to break it down. Another gave a complete estimate but was 30% higher than Fernando. Once we agreed on the work, Fernando was the first to respond, the first to view the jobs, and professional in the work.

Fernando has helped us before with exterior carpentry. Because of our prior excellent experience, we asked if he’d be able to help us again. I ordered the flooring that was used for the initial installation. Fernando was very responsive and we made plans for the work to be done. He was able to remove some flooring and weave the wood back in to make it look as if there was never a hole at all. This had to be done for 2 bedrooms. He covered the furniture and our belongings to protect it from dust. He’s very neat, precise, and clean with his work. He was able to hunt down matching baseboard that was not carried at the big stores. He explained everything that needs to be done. He is very thorough. The project took the equipment of one day to be done (was spread out over two days).

Fernando returned my initial phone call and came out to provide an estimate promptly. He had some great ideas I had not considered and I completely agreed with his concept for the work. He provided a time frame to do the work, called me the week before to schedule, and arrived exactly when promised. All work was done completely and professionally, by Fernando himself. He stuck to his original estimate, even though some of the materials were more expensive than expected. I am 100% satisfied with the repairs and will definitely hire him again.

It went extremely well. Fernando was very clear explaining the work to be done, when he would arrive and finish each day, and when the overall project would be completed. He made thoughtful suggestions for how to repair the damage around the house and came up with reasonable and economic solutions. He is very careful and responsible about his work. When he could not purchase fluted boards to match the existing ones, he made them himself. I paid exactly what he estimated.

If I could give Mr. Fonseca an A++ I would. He did excellent, careful work, He is clearly very knowledgeable and competent. He noticed details, and made excellent suggestions. His estimate of time involved was on the nose, and the cost was very reasonable.

Fernando was terrific. He spent most of a day at our house, and got everything done (except for a couple of tasks that required parts we did not have). He was extremely professional and pleasant. Very thoughtful about how to go about fixing things. Altogether a great experience.

Fernando got to this job much quicker than I thought. He called and arrived right when he said he would. His work was absolutely excellent. He is going to come back to do three other jobs that will be outside the house.

great work. Replied promptly to my inquiry. Scheduled it shortly after my initial contact. Work well done. He contacted us the next day to confirm that we liked the work done and was willing to come back to redirect the lights if needed. He was very up front that $300 is his lowest price. It's a little more than the job might cost but we needed it done promptly. I would absolutely use him again.
