"These guys were great! They were friendly and very knowledgeable about what they were doing. They looked at my steps and didn't exaggerate the problem. I was told what needed to be done and that they were going to drill a few holes to inject the limestone grout, and then did exactly what they said they were going to do. I did call around to get quotes from other companies and was quoted $3000 as a starting point. I paid a fraction of that cost and got my money's worth. If you are ever in need of concrete repair, call these guys! I'm glad I did."

"Chris and Mike did an excellent job! Our sidewalk was sinking 2-3 inches in spots. They explained exactly how the process works. Started the job on time and was very professional. I'm impressed with how well it turned out. Our sidewalk is now level. Thank you!"

"My sidewalk leveling using mud jacking work was completed quickly with great results. Fair price, good communication."

"They did great. The entire surface was level and free from tripping hazards. It is important to have them seal the cracks because there will be water from snow melt and the concrete will move. This will get you the 5 yr warrantee just in case."

"We had our concrete floors raised as they have settled over the years. Joey and Derrick were the team that did the raising. Fantastic professionals and excellent workmanship. They not only answered our questions but explained why and how the foam worked. I was a home builder for 10 years and can recognize good workman. These two were outstanding. If you need foundation work or concrete floors lifted, give Innovative a call. DON'T SETTLE FOR ANYTHING LESS."

My new garage/shed was finished approximately one year after I signed the contract with Heinen.  He did a good job of designing the garage (in his head; no drawings) in a way that was economical and works.  Greg Heinen is very personable and generally easy to talk to.  We talked over options and worked through questions and decided on a final design.  My dissatisfaction mostly arises from the length of time it took to finish the work and the difficulty I had in knowing what was going on with the construction schedule. 

Problems started (at least in part) due to heavy rains in June of 2014, which seemed to get everything delayed for months.  I also now (in hindsight) think that because Greg is a relatively small general contractor who works with a number of subcontractors, the delays were due to the availability of many of his subs.  The original start date was to be June of 2014, then pushed back to late July, and then he couldn't give me a date and stopped communicating with me. A crew finally came to demolish the existing garage in late September.  The general pattern was that Greg would tell me when crews would be out, more often than not the crew would not show up on that day, and I would get a series of promised start dates that also did not happen.  Construction continued sporadically in this manner through October and November, and in December I had a garage that was usable (although without electricity except via extension cord).  This spring they finished up with a new driveway (the first was incorrectly put in) and the electrical hook-up.  Some of what I wanted for the garage/shed did not occur and I had to decide whether it was more important to get the garage done or to get it done in accordance with the contract.  Because it was so late in the year, I generally decided on getting things done.  The item that I am most unhappy with is the eave depth. They were supposed to be 18" but wound up being only 12".  Since the roof trusses. were brought onsite pre-constructed, I didn't realize the depth was off until they and the walls were up  so I could measure.  By that time it was late October or November and I needed a garage for the winter.

In general, my experience with the subs is that a few of them showed up when they were supposed to and worked full days, but more of them seemed to show up about 10 a.m. and leave about 3 p.m.  One crew of two showed up at 10 and I saw one of the guys standing around for two hours.  He said they had thought nails would be there, but the right kind of nails weren't there, so the other guy had to get them.  So, it took this guy 2 hours to get the nails (!) and then they left at 3.  On the other hand, the crews that did the framing and put in the second driveway did an excellent job, and the garage and shed function well.  I wonder if part of the problem is that Greg trusts his subs and some of them take advantage of that. Greg seldom came out to see how things were going and seemed to just ask the subs what was going on and simply take their word for it.

In summary, I got the garage and shed we discussed (with the exception of a few items which Greg readily removed from the final cost) and am happy with how it works.  The process of getting the garage, however, is not one I'd like to go through again.

"We originally had laminate flooring on most of the main floor (about 575 s.f.) in our 4 year old home. Due to a leaky wash machine, all of the laminate flooring had to be removed. My wife and I had never had tile installed before, but we decided to give Joe at Tabery Design a call. Within a day or two Joe stopped by to give us an estimate for installing tile throughout all the damaged rooms (kitchen, bathroom, laundry room, dinette and foyer). In addition to the estimate, Joe gave us tips on what to look for when selecting floor tile and gave us ideas on various tile installation patterns. He also recommended quality tile distributors in our area where we could shop. To eliminate any future problems we may have with a leaky wash machine, Joe had the idea to install a shower drain under the wash machine. What a great idea! When we gave him the go ahead for the installation, Joe immediately ordered the tile and started prepping the floor. Instead of using the traditional cement backer board to lay the tile on, Joe recommended pouring a thin layer or self-leveling concrete on the subfloor which he had covered with a paper. This would greatly reduce the chance of cracking when the house settles. A nice touch in my opinion. After the floor had cured, Joe was right back to install the tile. It took about 2-3 days to completely install the tile. The grout took an additional day. From the beginning of the floor prep to the end of the grout work, the job took about 5 work days. Very quick for 575 s.f. in my opinion. Throughout the job Joe was extremely professional. He always picked up before he left for the day and he was extremely meticulous about how the tile was installed. My wife and I are so happy with the way the floor turned out. Thanks to Joe, everything was done efficiently and painlessly. As a result, we have a master bathroom and a kitchen backsplash we'd like to have tiled and Tabery Design will be at the top of our list when we decide to move forward with them. I would recommend Joe to anyone interested in having a high-quality tile floor installed. Thanks again Joe!"
