Peter Glaser Construction Inc

One sink was installed at a slant and had to be redone. That sink has very noisy drain, the  stopper does not work, and a $400 sink will not hold water. We then requested different workers for the main bathroom but were ignored. We will have to hire a plumber to redo the sink again.
Did not replace broken tiles broken in installation, offering almond color after promising to match salmon color. A tile specialist will charge us  $250 additional for installation after we found the matching tile color locally.
 
Employed a jack of all trades and an assistant instead of electrician and plumber specialists. Entire house electrical power was shorted out while installing electrical outlet in medicine cabinet. No precautions were taken to switch off relay power first.  We had requested an electrician to do this since we had doubts about the workman's ability after discussing the cabinet installation. Mr. Glaser refused that request. Mr.Glaser did not come to review the finished work nor call us to discuss the remaining issues. He never saw the completed work.
Seven to eight days work of two men plus the delivery of the fixtures we purchased separately cost $8,000 or $1,000/day for labor.

This job was a lot more complicated than my wife or I had expected as it first involved extensive demolition work and then the painstaking task of tile installation.   Peter Glaser showed patience and understanding in helping us to develop a plan and was very responsive as the inevitable challenges arose.    Francisco, the painter and tile setter who performed the actual installation, was first rate.   Richard Reeves, who performed the electrical work, was also very competent and helpful.  The first plumber that Peter offered to us was a substitute, who did not meet the high standards of the other workers.  As a result Peter had to do some troubleshooting towards the end of the project, but the end result was highly satisfactory.   I believe that the price that we paid was fair for the extensive work that was performed, and would strongly recommend Peter Glaser to others who may be contemplating similar projects.

He arrived on time and finished the work within the time frame established.

He is just finishing up with the work.  I got him through Angieslist.  He is great.  The weather for the last couple of weeks has not made it easy for him.  It could be too cold to paint and it could be too rainy to do anything.  But he is pretty much done with his work within the timeframe that he said he would be done with his work.  We probably have one more day’s work.  He was on top of it.  He didn’t make any promises that he couldn’t keep.  He seemed to use quality materials.  We did a comparison with another bidder and it was in the same range as the other bidder.  We had no reason to think that his cost wasn’t reasonable.  We would hire him again.

He did a really good job.  Some other people wouldn't do the tile job because it was glass and so required a little bit more (1.55).  He did it, it looks great and I'm really happy with it. 

He helped us do a fast-turn-around re-model of an entire upscale rental bathroom.  The job required ripping out most of the bathroom, including a Jacuzzi.  He had to remove the flooring, jack hammer out sections of concrete slab, move pipes and drains, replace the concrete, build out an entire new Italian style walk in shower with decorative tile and glass, and install all the new fixtures.  Also installed a new tile floor for the whole bathroom.  The kicker is that we had to do this - start to finish - in less than three days.  I was nervous.  I asked if he could, no kidding, do it in that amount of time - because I was going to be in trouble if we didn't finish on time.  He said he could, and he did!  And it was excellent work - perfect.  Also, he thought to put down plastic over everything to protect from the concrete jack hammer dust which was hard to contain.

Subsequently we did a kitchen remodel and moved some floor drains, put in a new floor, changed the location of a door, put in a whole new breaker box, ran new outlets and switches, and took care of some cement patch work needed behind a wall when we tore in there.  All went great.  Total success.  There were some other contractors (granite and cabinets) involved and the integration was very smooth.

Most recently we needed to put in a trench drain in a cement and slate patio to prevent possible flooding into a basement.  For that project, I was tied up with other work so I just described what I needed over the phone.  He knew what was needed, he got it done perfectly.  I wouldn't do that with most people, but he is smart, he listens well, and he knows what he is doing.

This guy really knew what he was doing - said he's been remodelling bathrooms and kitchens for over 30 years - I was amazed. He came in, gave me an estimate of what it would cost and how long it would take. His price was in the middle of the bids I'd gotten quoted, but he took responsibility for things that others told me I'd have to contract elsewhere! I didn't want the hassle, so went with him. Then he did exactly what he said he'd do in the time he said it would take. There was a lot of Tile work, some intricate mith custom mosaics. I had been worried about this and how it would turn out. But the tile work was flawless! His crew was clean and careful. The job turned out perfect. I'd recommend Peter for any Kitchen or Bathroom Remodelling job, or really anything. He was fast, careful and really knew what needed to be done.
