We did all of the work in choosing styles of fixtures, colors, the counter-tops, the flooring, etc. We made several trips to Hammond to coordinate this and even went to the manufacturer of the counter-top to select the largest piece ourselves. This process, though a little overwhelming at first, proved to be the best part (and the most important) of the job because, in the end, its these things that are on display. I would highly recommend choosing the large counter-top piece oneself because then you know exactly what it will look like and can plan accordingly with coordinating colors. All Season workers performed the excavation work and concrete foundation work, and this crew was very good. They were courteous and really got the job done (particularly considering that it was January in Maine!). They also performed the rough framing, and again this crew was exceptional. Carl and Peter were the main persons who were with us during this time, and they were friendly, informative, and worked hard to keep things clean and moving along quickly. We enjoyed having them work at our house every day. They also installed all of our new windows and did an excellent job cleaning up after themselves in each room. Then the finish work (painting, fixtures, flooring, etc.) crew took over, and that's where the job went somewhat wrong. Arthur and Jake were the main persons in this crew (Arthur was also the foreman overseeing the entire job from start to finish). This crew was polite, but didn't interact with me well. For example, I had to stay with our dog locked in my guest room while they were onsite. It was necessary for me to do this every day for weeks. Instead of letting me know that they were leaving for lunch or for the day, they chose to ignore me completely...causing me to have to stay in the room for 6-hours or more at a time. I found this to be quite discourteous. They also created huge messes, but were lacking when it came to cleaning up well. Obviously with the amount of work we had done we knew that we would have to clean the house several times. However, we also had to sweep up messes left by the crew on several occasions, and that was truly unacceptable. All Season subcontracted the plumbing and electrical work. The electrical went off without a hitch, but the plumbing was very poor. Our showers do not have sufficient hot water for the time it takes 1 person to take a shower (we suspect that the mixing valves are not set correctly, resulting in too much cold water). We asked them to fix it, but they failed to do it correctly. I am actively searching for a plumber here on Angie's List who can come and fix this issue (at the time of this review). The installation of the master bedroom carpet was done well. They moved all of our furniture in and out. The kitchen counter-tops were done very well (subcontracted out). They also subcontracted out the cabinet work, and that was done very well. The kitchen floor work was a bit hairy. The demo of the existing floor caused a tremendous mess, which could have been better maintained frankly. The installation of the floor was done very well, although the area they used to cut the floor tiles created a huge mess that they failed to clean. I am not sure if they subcontracted this work or not. As to the overall quality of job, I have to say that the improvements to our home are exceptional, and that speaks to the design, our choice of finishes and fixtures, and their workmanship. There were a few things that did not meet that exceptional standard though. One was the painting in our new sunroom, where there were uneven seams between the ceiling and walls. Also, the back splash to our counter-top in the kitchen was sealed very poorly, and even when we asked Arthur to correct it, he still couldn't do a good job. Ultimately the company owner agreed to cover the shoddy work with a piece of frame that matches the windowsill in the kitchen (we are still waiting for this to happen as of the time of this review). Another problem we had was with the estimate itself. Apparently the company didn't include the external painting of our new addition. This was not explained to us. Instead, the language of the contract simply stated that they would "match existing"...which we thought meant color as well as the wooden shingle siding that we have. It was not clearly excluded either. So we felt that this was a shady move by the company (as the estimate was prepared by the owner of All Season). In the end we had to pay additional money to have our new addition painted to match the rest of the house (we are also waiting for this to happen at the time of this review. They also need to finalize relocating our existing deck...which we will probably have them paint as an addition to their original scope of work). All in all, we would hire them again. Despite the rough patches, we endured the experience and are happy with our remodeled home. However, now that we are a bit more savvy as to the process surrounding a home remodel, we will ensure that we have our estimate clearly explained (step by step, including all exclusions or omissions), and we will ensure that the finish crew cleaned better (that is, if we ever feel the need to do another remodel).

My husband and I were having trouble deciding on tile, wood flooring, lighting (everything!) but in one meeting with Jana all decisions were made. In the Clear Choice Flooring and Design showroom there is a large assortment of materials to choose from and with Jana's discerning eye the decision making process was a snap!
The project begins with a pre-construction meeting (held at the home) in which all the sub-contractors attend. The homeowner meets the crew, has any questions answered and then the typed schedule is reviewed. I really appreciated the schedule so I could plan when we had to make other accommodations when the kitchen was under construction, knowing the pay schedule and just being aware of each step in the project. The project manager stops in every day to make sure the crew is there and on schedule. Every sub-contractor showed up when they said they would -not one "no show"! All sub-contractors were respectful and cleaned up at the end of each day. On the last day of the project a cleaning crew comes in and cleans all rooms/areas that were affected by the remodel!

FAQs for floor sanding projects in Manchester, ME
The cost to refinish hardwood floors is $1,900 on average, ranging from $600 to $4,500, depending on the area size, the floor’s condition, the type of wood, the type of coating, and the refinishing method. Traditional refinishing includes sanding the floors, which can be very dusty and costs about $3 to $8 per square foot. Dustless refinishing uses a vacuum to collect dust during the sanding process, reducing the amount of dust produced, and costs about $5 to $8 per square foot.
You should aim to hire a professional floor cleaner once or twice per year to remove any set-in stains, resolve scratches, and make your floors look shiny and new again. If you have a bustling household with many children, pets, or severe allergies, having your floors cleaned four times per year is worth the investment to maintain the integrity of your flooring. Don’t forget to prioritize cleaning your floors yourself in between professional cleanings, too.
The cost to install hardwood flooring is about $4,800 on average, ranging from about $1,000 to $12,000. Nationally, the average cost to install hardwood floors ranges from $6 to $12 per square foot for labor and materials. High-end woods and large spaces may cost $13 to $25 per square foot.
Additional cost factors include:
Square footage of the area
Type of wood
Preparation requirements
Type of finish
Location
Floor style and pattern
Plank thickness
Wood grade, color, and grain
It’s time to refinish your hardwood floors when they show signs of age that diminish their overall appearance and function. A few surefire signals that you should consider refinishing your hardwood floors include:
Gouges, scrapes, deep scratches, and dents over a significant area
Discoloration from stains or sun exposure
Water damage causing rotting, warping, or bowing
Weak, spongy, or soft spots in the floor indicating damaged subflooring
Dull and worn appearance across most of the floor
The cost for professional floor cleaning is $250 on average. This cost can range from $100 to $1,500, depending on the type of flooring and its square footage.
For example, natural stone flooring requires specialized techniques and care, so you'll spend closer to the higher end of the cost range. The cost of cleaning tile and grout is more cost-effective, where you'll pay an average of $0.50 to $3.50per square foot.
