"One of our rental homes had a bad house fire. We had to gut it down to the studs, kept the exterior siding, but everything else had to be replaced, plumbing, electrical, HVAC, plus walls, floors, ceilings, bathroom and kitchen. The works. Tyler from SimpleFix ran the project with his crew, kept in great communication, and stayed on it until we were satisfied with the finished work. His estimate was accurate, and we have received rave reviews from tenants about how grateful the place looks since then. We've continued to use SimpleFix for many projects since then, and we keep coming back to because they communicate promptly and get the work done right. We highly recommend SimpleFix, and we often refer them to friends and family, too."

"Jeff did an amazing job. He designed a gate to go across the stairs that works perfectly without taking up space. I still get compliments on the job he did. I would HIGHLY recommend him for a job."

"After a terrible bathroom remodel several years ago from another contractor, we decided to use Angie's List to find someone who could the job right.  We called several contractors and received a few quotes.  We were impressed with Todd because he took the time to explain what needed to be done.  He also provided some ideas that would improve the look of the bathroom.  I took care of the demolition so we could minimize the number of surprises that would come up during the remodel.  Todd was able to correct a wiring problem and partially correct a plumbing issue in the first couple days that was caused by the last contractor.  Todd had mentioned that there was going to be additional cost to correct these issues.  
During the project, Todd and Dave took their time and were very diligent in replacing the drywall and laying the tile. They did an excellent job with laying the tile.  However when they reinstalled the double vanity, the right sink was leaking.  I notified Todd of this and he stopped by the next day to complete the repair.  He said the sink should be fixed and we could use it the next day.  When we used the sinks, I noticed the right sink was still leaking.  I called Todd and he stopped by a couple days later.  He mentioned that he had worked on both sinks, tested them and everything should be working fine.  Unfortunately, the left sink was leaking.  I notified Todd early in the morning.  He responded the next day and mentioned he could stop over the following week.  Since this was the fourth time the sink leaked since it was reinstalled, we ended up reaching out to another plumber on Angie's List to fix the problem.
Overall, we are happy with the bathroom remodel but disappointed with the last two days of the project since it seemed there was a rush to the finish.  Some of the small details were overlooked and we have a sink that will be fixed by another plumber.   
I would grade the tile work and drywall replacement an A but lower marks on the plumbing.

10/12/15:  7 months since the remodel, we noticed the grout had a couple areas with hairline cracks.  Todd came out within a week and repaired it.  No other issues anywhere else.  The bathroom still looks great.

"My house was in a need of a major face lift. In preparation for the approaching cold months, and inevitably spending more time in doors, we wanted to make sure that all of our major updates were finished before the cold Michigan weather came sweeping in to spoil the summer fun. So naturally it was decided that the time had come to remove the awful wallpaper in the den and master bathroom!
 I met with four contractors, Elysium's bid was admittedly higher in price. However, based on their outstanding reputation and the detail and clarity that their estimator brought to the table we signed the contract.
All of the work was completed as promised and within the given time frame. There were no nasty surprises when the materials invoice came and the ghastly wallpaper is gone for good. Looking forward to spending time in my updated den this winter, thank you Elysium for doing a great job!

FAQs for contractor service projects in Auburn, MI

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.
