This company is terrible at communication. I knew exactly what I wanted, I just needed someone to buy cabinets from and they would never get back to me. Apparently they aren't interested in doing work or making money.

Christians Inc did a great job in drying out our home after a pipe burst. They were very professional, quick, responsive, and very helpful. The owner of the company came out and was very easy to talk to and work with. He was also knowledgeable on how to work with the insurance company. I would hire them again to dry out after a flood. However, we also used them to rebuild our house (laundry room, bathroom, entire house carpeting, etc.) and that was not a pleasant experience. Specifically the project manager assigned to us was extremely unprofessional and difficult to work with. If we had not dealt with him, I think our overall experience would have been much better. Since we had two very different experiences (one great - for drying out our water-soaked home and the other bad - for the rebuild) we gave this rating an even split right down the middle.

This company took 1.5 years to complete project and it is still not done. The company refused to cone out and fix nail pops, cracked drywall, broken window, carpet, uneven drywall, outlets, and other items in the room. We would not recommend this company because of their nonprofessional actions that they showed us,we would not want anyone to go through what we did with this company.

They were great. They did beautiful work. Cleaned up after themselves meticuously. Offered great advice. They were responsive and professional. I would advise checking out everything before they leave though (always a good idea really) as I did find one small spot on a door frame where I think the painter accidentally peeled up some of the paint on the frame, but I know that if I had called them and asked them to come fix it they would have done it ( I just decided to leave it as is). I give them the highest recommendation possible. They are a little pricey, but if you have the money I would use them instead of another firm. Note that I can't really remember what their service cost and that the amount I listed above under approximate cost of service is probably an underestimate. All I remember is that they cost a bit more than some other providers but were worth it.

My contact person was very responsive and they performed all work as promised and as scheduled. I was a little disappointed in the quality of some of the workmanship. Some of the carpentry and sheetrock work were a bit sloppy. If it had been my own residence, I would have complained but because it was a rental, I didn't worry about it too much. For example, a couple of the new doors were binding and not plumb. Also, they removed an outlet for the new sheetrock and after they finished, the outlet and wiring were still laying in the crawl space because they completely forgot to reinstall it.
Description of Work: Christians performed flood restoration at my rental property (single family home) in Shorewood. The lower level flooded due to a sump pump failure. Sheetrock, doors, and trim had to be replaced on the lower level. Area had to be dried out and treated for mold.

We contacted Christians Inc. with a list of issues we needed repaired to sell our house and Chad immediately scheduled a time to come out and look things over. Within 24 hours I had a breakdown of how they would handle the repairs and a competitive bid. We went with them and all of the work completed in a very timely manner. Every contractor sent out by Christians was extremely courteous and performed excellent work. The final bill even came in a little less the original bid. I will not hesitate to use Christians Inc again.

Christians provided large fans and a dehumidifier to help dry out the area. They removed a portion of the carpet pad since it was incredibly damaged from the water. They also arranged for our carpet to be cleaned when insurance decided not to pay to replace the carpet. The cleaning didn't help (which was not the fault of Chrsitians), and we ended up having the carpet replaced anyway. Christians was very prompt to come out and set up the fans after the initial call and they were always in contact with us, ensuring we were happy with their service.
Description of Work: A water pipe froze and burst in our basement, damaging drywall and carpet. Christians was recommended by our insurance provider to assess the damage and start the clean up process.

Excellent job overall. I did notice later that some paint was peeled on the trim of a door in the room they had painted and I think (but am not sure) that the painter knocked that paint off the door frame.). But we never mentioned it to the company as we noticed it quite awhile after the work they did so we can't gage how responsive they would have been to that issue. I did find them super responsive to other issues and questions, excellent at their jobs, and great at cleaning up after themselves. They probably won't be the lowest bidders on a job but if you have the money they are definitely worth it.

I have given 13 reviews on Angie’s List. 12 have been A’s but this one is only a C. I had repair done for water damage in the ceiling of 2 rooms: family room and kitchen. The family room looked OK so I gave this an A rating. However, I would have to give the kitchen an unacceptable rating because of the following reasons: 1. According to the report I received from my insurance adjustor, 60 sq. ft of drywall would have to be replaced along with the attic insulation above it in order to repair the water stain damage to my kitchen. 2. I noticed the next day after Christian’s employee, Keith, had completed his work, that he must have forgotten to paint the ceiling because of discoloration caused by sealer in about 1/3 of my kitchen ceiling that was not there prior to him working on my house. 3. I then noticed that the water stain [that extended about 3 feet long just to the right of the light fixture] was still there. It wasn’t real obvious because some popcorn had been sprayed over it but if I used a flashlight, I could easily see it and so did 3 other people. So it appeared that no drywall repair had actually been done. 4. I then called up Matt and asked him to return because I wanted to show him the problems. He explained that the discoloration came from the sealer so he would give me a deduction for the sealer of $53.45. Then, after showing him the water stain, I assumed that Matt would be upset with Keith or apologize or offer to give me a refund or something but to my surprise, I don’t recall any reaction at all. 5. I recall no offer being made to “come back and take care of the issue”. However, I would have a genuine concern that this might mean Keith would simply come back and paint over the problem rather than fix it. 6. No mention was made of payment for any paint job by either party. I never requested this because what I needed instead was a refund for kitchen repair on water damage [which cost me around $600], not for a $100 paint job, which would only cover up the problem. 7. There was also no discussion or agreement with Keith about any insulation. I was not even aware at the time that no kitchen insulation as done. 8. No deduction or reimbursement for any of this was ever given or offered, [only a small deduction for the sealer of $53.45 but that had nothing to do with fixing the original problem.] In summary, I paid around $600 just for them attempting to cover up the problem [large water stain in kitchen ceiling] rather than actually fixing the problem [dry wall repair].
Description of Work: I had an ice dam removed back around March 11, 2014 and then someone from another company came and dried out the rooms so there was no more moisture. There was still damage done to ceilings/drywall in 2 rooms so I later hired Christians to send someone out to repair the damage. This was done on May 9 and May 12, 2014

Response from Christians Inc
It is very disappointing to see [member name removed] had filed this complaint with Angie’s List. Christians, Inc. informed [member name removed] that the ceiling may show some bleed through after it dries. This in is not uncommon when re-spraying/texturing ceilings, and is not related to the ice damage. We told [member name removed] we would come back to address the issue if and when it occurs. When Matt me with [member name removed] and collected final payment, we again offered to come back and take care of the issue. [member name removed] did not want us to come back as she was having the entire home painted and would have the ceiling repainted by the new painter. She asked for a credit for the painting and we honored her request. The first mention of uneven texture to Christians, Inc. was in this Angie’s List complaint. Neither Matt nor Keith saw any unevenness. Again, Christians, Inc. would have no problem coming back and addressing this issue had we been given the opportunity. Christians, Inc. did not charge [member name removed] for a dumpster. Per our estimate, we charged her to “haul debris per truck load – including dumping fees”. Spraying texture and repairing ceilings requires a lot of plastic to cover the walls and floor especially due to the fact we actually put plastic up twice in the basement. (Once when we scraped and sealed the ceiling, and a second time when we returned to spray the new texture.) This was done to give [member name removed] her TV room for the evening. Regardless, the debris was loaded into Keith’s van, driven to the Christians, Inc. office, and disposed of in the Christians, Inc. dumpster. Drywall was repaired. There was water damage around the light fixture when it was taken down. Keith repaired and skimmed out this area. No insulation was replaced in the kitchen. Keith and [member name removed] agreed to replace the insulation in the basement as it was full of rodent feces and urine instead of replacing the insulation in the kitchen as this was not damaged. The light fixture is removed from the junction box, but the wires were not disconnected. The fixture was then wrapped in plastic to protect it during spraying, and then reinstalled. The ceiling fan was done in a similar fashion. Christians, Inc. values customer service, and for nearly 26 years we have relied on customer satisfaction as our advertising. We expect our employees to go above and beyond for our customers. For example, Keith points out a caulking issue around [member name removed] patio door and took care of it as a customer courtesy. Christians, Inc. told [member name removed] it would be no trouble to come back and address the ceiling issues. [member name removed] never informed Christians, Inc. of her concern that the texture was uneven, rather she elected to hire another contractor and file a complaint. Christians, Inc. will not honor [member name removed] request for resolution and will not make any counter offer. Sincerely,

Jennifer S.

I had a hard time finding the right kind of service provider to replace a hail-damaged metal shed (it was a small project for some of the contractors but dealing with insurance seemed more than the handyman services were used to). I called Christians since their website says they specialize in working with insurance and restoration issues. Adam was great, he came out once himself to look at the site, and then a couple days later the actual installer came to look, in the process of putting together a quote for us. The cost came in within the amount allocated by insurance. We were out of town when we finalized the contract, and Adam was generous in stopping by our house in person to pick up the deposit check when we got back so that we could get everything started a few days sooner. Adam also hauled away some scrap metal that we needed to dispose of (that had to be moved in order to take the old shed down), at no extra charge which we were grateful for. The work was done over the course of two afternoons. The crew was polite and cleaned up after themselves, and the new shed is pretty much exactly like the old one. We are happy with the experience of working with Christians and with the work they did for us.

They were on the list that were recommended by my insurance company. They really did a wonderful job with that so I was able to see that and so that made it also a little bit more competent in the aluminum siding. I think their quote was reasonable given that this particular division had custom colors and in order to match the colors you have to replace everything. Initially I wasn't sure with the process so I started with them, I wasn't too clear on the process being a new homeowner and working with an insurance claim and all those stuff. Part of it was my learning experience too so they certainly helped me along with that so I kind of knew what I needed to do as well from my side. I think they had the impression that I knew what I was doing and I really didn't. He walked me through the whole process and once he has learned where my level was, then he was able to pick up really good and I think that was pretty cool. It was on the phone initially so there's really no interaction. They're really good about keeping me posted on the progress by e-mail and that's been very helpful so I knew that the guy was going to come out and measure the house, I knew when people were going to be at home and stuff like that. He has always been on time and has always responded and he messages me because sometimes I forget to respond.
Description of Work: I had a quote from Christians Inc in the fall for siding services and I also have some other damage that needed to be replaced resulting from winds where my sockets flew and they replaced those.

Overall, I felt like the project was in very good hands throughout, and the work was done with quality as well.
Description of Work: We had water intrusion that necessitated ripping out a finished room in the corner of the basement. In addition, we had much outdoor landscaping done to correctly sculpt the land's angle away from the house. Multiple subcontractors were involved, but Christian's did an excellent job of orchestrating all of them. They specialize in water intrusion/abatement jobs, so their work was meticulous in my opinion. They did everything from haul away the carpet to clean and sanitize it (for the mold that had grown on it), to sanitizing the interior walls with an antimicrobial solution and then covering the block with a sealer, to re-framing and sheetrocking and all the finishing work that comes along with that. They even discovered and corrected a framing issue on the exterior of the egress window (somewhat outside the scope of the project). The framing had to be creative since there were some utilities that ran along one wall of the bedroom. Their painting crew, who also did the sheetrocking, said it was some of the best framing they had seen. The paint was a dark color and did not cover to my satisfaction even with three coats. I asked them to return, which they readily did and added another coat of paint.

They are a preferred provider for state Fam. A principal from the company came and estimated the damage and got approval from state farm to do the work. He hired the painter and drywall person. He sent an electrician when the circuits got fried during the renovation. He sent a carpet cleaner. In other words, Christians handled the whole project from start to finish. They did good work.

Good job overall. But the following problems -. crushed a downspout - gave us a new length of the material (but didn't cut it for us and we don't have the tools to do it) - used too long nails - attic storage area is now dangerous forbhitting your head on a nail - left huge mess of debris in attic storage area - I had to buy a shopvac and cleanup myself - quoted $200 to make a saddle for where roof meets fireplace but only reduced price by $100 when we provided it ourselves. Otherwise,the speedy and good quality.
