"Outstanding!!! By far one of the finest installations that I have had performed in my home over the last 30 years. Eric who performed the installation is a master at recessed light installation. After a brief survey of my existing lighting and my new requirements he went right to work. He made only two (2) 6"x 6" drywall ceiling cuts to complete the 11 light installation. I envisioned that my ceiling would require major drywall work when he finished and my requirement to hire a drywall contractor. In fact he did such great job in his ceiling entry work I completed the drywall patch work myself. He took advantage of my existing wiring to tie all lights in and replaced existing switches with ones that provided a dimmer capability. If you are thinking of having recessed LED lighting installed and don't hire Murphy Family Services and Eric specifically you're missing out on a great opportunity to spruce up your home with a quality lighting job (Oh! don't forget that you have to buy the LED lights and switches but at today's prices they're a real bargain. Extremely pleased, Joe Vercellone"

"I am at fault for not activating their service until near the end of the year it was in effect. My remodel kept getting delayed and delayed. My initial contact was great from the Homemade Design contact person. He assigned me Amanda Z . We conferenced by phone for an hour after she missed the 1st scheduled phone conference. I emailed photos of my preferences, room dimensions, photos of the room and filled out their online style questionaire. She e mailed me a design. A few months later, I did the remodel with MJM Cabinets. Great assist there. We designed the Murphy bed/storage. I emailed Amanda a question sometime before the start of the remodel. Did not hear back from her for the months I was remodelling. Finally she emailed that l was labelled as Spam. No ahswer to my months old design question. Finished the project. Amanda's contribution was the positioning of the murphy bed/storage unit and a reading chair. Emailed her the photos of the room after the contractors left. Asked her assistance. She said no need. That was it. Got $29 worth of design."

"Purchased coupon on August 11, 2011. Because I was remodeling my kitchen myself after work and weekends, I didn't have time to deal with the creating the room drafts, plans, layouts or measurements she required. I did contact Jill and explain the situation and she was very understanding. She said because I contacted her, not to worry about the deadline. I remained in contact with her over the next few years (that's how long it took me) and when I was ready around the start of 2014, she worked hard to provide her new design.
A true professional and great person to work with. The design was spot on and my wife and i were very impressed. Thank you Jill.

"They did a good job on the basement but there were too many issues with the kitchen. The main issue was that when the sales person got the sale there was a gap with the project designer. The sales rep did not pass along what I wanted to the designer. An example of this was that I wanted a pot filler and the contractor had no idea of this. This is kind of a big deal since this includes running new plumbing. Since they had done my basement, they said that I could have my kitchen done at cost, but they would never give me a breakdown of what I was saving. When it came to the warranties for the products used, I had the hardest time getting the information from them for the warranties. There's still one warranty that I haven't received almost a year."

Generally, general contractors charge between $50 and $150 hourly, though not every contractor charges by the hour. If charging based on the project, you can expect a markup of 10% to 20% of the construction cost. You can expect to pay between $300 and $500 daily if charged by the day.
General contractors are the ones that coordinate home construction projects. They are in charge of the day-to-day oversight of the subcontractors to ensure that the project is completed on time and to resolve problems as they arise. General contractors:
Complete pre-construction planning, both with the customer and crew
Provide realistic cost estimates
Develop construction timelines
Ensure deadlines are met
Acquire permits as needed
Purchase supplies and materials
Before hiring a general contractor for your home project, it’s a great idea to write down a list of questions to discuss with each prospect. Some example questions to get you started include:
Which types of insurance do you carry?
Can you provide a list of references?
What is the expected timeline for this project?
How will my project be supervised?
Will you hire subcontractors for the job?
What is the best way to communicate changes?
Will you obtain all of the required building permits?
While city and state laws vary on general contractor licensing requirements, hiring an unlicensed general contractor could lead to poor quality work, costly future expenses, and potential code violations. Be sure to check our state licensing tool to review the local general contractor guidelines for your area.
As you browse our pro listings, take note of the “Angi Approved” badge. Angi Approved businesses meet our standards for certification which include:
The owner, principal, or relevant manager passed a criminal background check
Required to have applicable state and local licenses
Maintain an average star rating of 3.0 or better on our network, if they have at least one review
Paying to advertise their services
Meeting any other eligibility criteria required by Angi
Keep in mind licensing is different from certifications. A license is a legal requirement to operate a business, while certifications are voluntary.
Yes, most general contractors require a down payment for project completion. A reasonable down payment for a contractor is 10% to 25% of the total project cost, though that will vary based on project size and location. The down payment helps cover the upfront costs of materials and permits and helps ensure payment for the project at hand.
