The work was performed at a high level of quality. He added many extra things without complaint and without raising his prices.
Description of Work: Mr. Bishop did a large-scale renovation on a rental property that I own. He re-painted all the rooms, replaced sub-floors and flooring in the kitchen, installed all-new cabinets, sink, disposal, gas range, and lighting. He also renovated the bathroom which needed extensive plumbing repairs along with a new sink and flooring. This was a major project that he handled all subcontracting for as well. He was always flexible and his prices were very reasonable considering all the work he did. Highly recommended!

Robert is tidy and effecient, a true professional. He arrived with drop cloths and help me move my furniture out of the way. The job was done on time and under what he quoted (I got my receipt for the materieals handed back and the change!) I have told many people about Robert and a friend used him to fix a leak in her basement plaster up the damage and paint the walls. She too was extremely impressed by his work and ethics. He suggested other work she may want to consider having done to avoid problems in the future and did not charge her for the consultation. You don't meet many contractors like Robert Bishop. When you do you count yourself lucky!
Description of Work: Robert did some repair work in my living room after I had a swing arm TV mount installed. He patched the holes the installers left and repainted the entire wall so that I would have a good paint match. He took the time and effort to take a paint chip to the store to get an exact match for the paint which was a few years old and had shifted in color a bit. When he was here I asked him for an estimate on some other repairs I wanted done and he said he didn't do that type of work but gave me a good idea of what it should cost to get it done. That made it easy for me to negotiate with the contractors that showed up since it sounded like I knew what I was talking about. I plan to use Robert again when we get our home ready to put on the market. His eye for detail and excellent work makes this a no brainer!

Robert came out to our house, gave estimate, gave us a date to do the work. Arrived on time, completed the job ahead of time, and charged less than original estimate. The work was excellent.
Description of Work: Robert did a Drywall repair on the ceiling around our chimney. Original estimate was apprx $300. We were very pleased with final price of $140. He was knowledgeable. professional, friendly, and did more than what was promissed. We are very satisfied and recommend him highly.

Before Christmas my wife used Angie's List to find a contractor to tape and mud our basement drywall after we hung all the drywall. Before we finished hanging all the drywall ( 2 small walls were left, and the bulkheads) we contacted Robert to come out and give an estimate to finish hanging the drywall, tape and mud the seams, fix any of my imperfections, sand the seams, cleanup and leave the basement walls ready for primer. Robert showed up the next day and showed my wife what we had done wrong and how he thought he could fix it. She was impressed with his knowledge and is experience of working as a union drywaller for 28 years. He gave an estimate of $700-800. He called her back 2 days later and said he had an idea of how to fix (straighten out our bulkheads) and could do all the work for $600. I've never had a contractor call and LOWER his price! After hearing this I called him back and asked if he could come out and show me what he was going to do and to make sure we worked out my expectations of the work he was going to do. He explained his fix for my bulkhead and said we would just have to pay for the plywood and glue he would need (approx $150). He agreed to show me the receipt and I would reimburse him for the materials. He said he could get the work done in about 6 days, working from 9am-4pm. We agreed for him to start the Monday after Christmas and I was done the Monday following New Years. He did a great job with fixing my errors and making the walls as flat and smooth as he could. Some of the framing behind the drywall wasn't perfect so the wall isn't totally flat, but that was my mistake, not his. And he did a great job of trying to minimize the "wavyness". Overall Robert is a great drywaller and I'm happy with the price and time frame of completion.

The brick was beginning to flack and powder. Robert washed the foundation brick, primed with a tinted sealant, then applied 2 coats of paint. The first he rolled on for coverage, the second he sprayed to get into the deep cracks. He had to crawl under the deck to finish the back of the house. Another great job. Labor and materials were included.
Description of Work: Power washed brick foundation on rental property. Applied sealant and rolled on first coat of paint. Sprayed on second coat including under back deck.

Robert took a shabby deck and breathed new life into it. I thought the deck was a goner and would have to be replaced but Robert replaced the handrails and steps and railing and with the wash and stain it looks great. The plastic storm window is now more kid friendly.
Description of Work: Repair and replace where needed boards on a rear deck on a rental property, Power wash and apply sealant. Install Plexiglas security storm window over deck access window.
They came in and patched and painted with such care and attention to detail that my 60 year old walls look like brand new drywall!!! I was so pleased with their work I hired them to do additional light carpentry and tile work last year and they are now working on my sister-in-law's home in Grosse Pointe right now. Robert is a master drywall installer and his son does beautiful tile work.
Description of Work: Robert Bishop and his son patched and repaired my walls which were damaged by the installation of foam insulation. The paint was shawling off the walls in huge patches and falling to the floor. They removed the old paint, sanded and filled the voids, sealed the patches, helped me select the paint colors for all the rooms. They corrected the finish work in my kitchen, installed an inset spice rack for me and trimmed out my soffit. They were the cleanest, tidiest painters I have ever experienced.
