"SAR does great work. An intoxicated driver took out the culvert and rock flower bed in the front of our home. I had a hard time getting someone to give us an estimate and our neighbor gave us SARâ  s name. They gave us a fair price and the the project was completed in two days. The best part was that they do very neat work and I would recommend them to others."

Seven Six Two Removal
Seven Six Two Removal
A Veteran Owned Demolition and Removal Services company. Started by Owner Matthew Hull a 8 year Marine Corps Veteran. We Cover Demolition, Removal Services, Concrete and Excavation. We strive for the best and settle for nothing less!
"Matthew (Matt) Hull, Seven Six Two Removal, and Brim Contracting LLC deserve ZERO stars. I rue the day I contracted with Matt Hull for my whole house renovation project, and only hope my warning can save others from a similar experience. Unless you enjoy paying twice for shoddy work, chasing down contractors, receiving false promises about timelines, being told repeatedly that your project isn’t making the contractor any money, having your project abandoned, and flirting with financial ruin, steer clear of Matt Hull and Seven Six Two Removal. Matt’s actions caused me significant financial losses— from the additional months of carrying costs, the extra payments in the tens of thousands to subsequent contractors to repair all his mistakes and finish the project, and from the lower sale price and incentives I had to offer to finally close a sales contract, a full 15 months after engaging with Matt Hull and Seven Six Two Removal. I don’t know if Matt is malicious or incompetent, but the results speak for themselves. Here’s just a sample of what I endured: -Mounds of trash and dangerous debris left everywhere. -Not a single room in the home was finished after six months—just a patchwork of poorly done and half-done jobs. -Only 50% of the interior was painted; the exterior was left half-painted with random substantial holes left open in the exterior brickwork of the home, resulting in dead birds and bird feces inside the house -Matt drywalled over the only kitchen HVAC vent (located in brand new ductwork in the ceiling bulkhead) and then installed a wall cabinet directly underneath the drywalled-over vent location. This was only discovered when investigating why the newly installed HVAC system wasn’t properly cooling the main floor. Correcting this issue cost additional time and money and risked significant damage to the new HVAC system. -Upstairs bathroom tile work was so bad that it looked like a middle school project—uneven, crooked, and sloped. It had to be gutted and reinstalled. -A toilet was installed incorrectly, causing plumbing headaches and extra bills. -Shower head in newly constructed basement bathroom installed off-center and, rather than correcting this obvious error, Matt tiled around it- making any future fix a major, expensive undertaking. -Vanity lights in the new bathroom installed off center on a tiled wall, requiring re installation and retiling of the area -Kitchen canned lights installed unevenly spaced, disregarding architectural drawings, and the kitchen feature light was not installed at all. Had to hire a professional to relocate the lights, patch and repaint multiple holes in the ceiling, and run new electrical wiring to properly power the fixtures that should have been installed in the first place. Kitchen cabinets and peninsula installed to the floor and walls incorrectly—had to pay a specialist to fix and reinstall. -Doors and doorways were measured and framed incorrectly, leading to wasted money, multiple door orders, and more delays. -Windows trimmed so poorly that standard coverings wouldn’t fit—had to customize every window covering. -Smoke/CO detector placed right next to a vent, a code violation. -Fence gate latch installed upside down, plus random holes cut in the fence. After abandoning the project nearly 11 months ago, Matt promised to return to work on my property “as soon as our schedule frees up.” Despite that promise, I never heard from Matt Hull or Seven Six Two Removal again. I have contracts, receipts, photos, videos, security camera footage, audio recordings, emails, and witnesses to prove every word and have shared this information with my attorney in anticipation of litigation. I am also reporting Matt Hull, Seven Six Two Removal, and related entities to the appropriate authorities in DC and Maryland, so no one else has to endure the anguish and financial jeopardy I experienced. If you value your time, money, and sanity, avoid Matthew (Matt) Hull and Seven Six Two Removal at all costs."
