I was in need of soffit, fascia, and siding. Had an estimate drawn up for all of it. We decided to just do gutters, soffit, and fascia (thankfully). Did a walk through, and contract signing gave them half down (all professional up to this point). Then it went downhill. Short story, the job is done 2.5 months later. Sales guy goofed, mishandled the situation. Water behind the fascia, lights not reinstalled, coax not put back. Countless emails, calls etc. Just got off the phone with Charles who went off on me because he thought I was some other guy. But at least I let them finish the job, not like the other guy from last year. Well, apparently I am not the only one.

We turned to All Around after our home had received hail damage. Our insurance company was making the claim process difficult, and was pushing to only do partial replacement of the siding. I had gone a few rounds with my insurance company already, and frankly my expectations were pretty low about getting them to cover full replacement of our siding. Robert was our project coordinator and did an outstanding job helping us understand the process, answering our questions, and working tirelessly advocating for us to ensure the claim covered the work that needed to be done. There were several twists and turns over the life of the project, but through it all Robert and his team stuck with us and saw it through. Their professionalism, patience, and persistence throughout the long process made this success possible. The work was completed when scheduled and the quality exceeded expectations. I absolutely recommend Robert and the All Around team.
Response from All Around
"This feedback is outstanding and exactly what we like to hear! We truly appreciate you taking the time to leave such an honest and thorough review! Robert is a wonderful project consultant, and we are thrilled to hear he exceeded your expectations with your home's hail damage insurance claim. We hope you enjoy your new siding for years to come!"

All around construction is without a doubt the worst contractor I have ever seen. First siding crew could not even get the courses straight. They broke the new "J" channel and just caulked over it trying to hide it. Cut "J'" channel to long on top, broke a chunk out of it, and cut to short on the bottom. The tops of all my windows looked like bananas. Drip edge was cut to long and I watched them beat it with a claw hammer trying to fix it, didn't work. That was it, called Charles, president, and told him to get them off my job. Next week second crew came while all this time the first crew left open wiring and sockets exposed to the rain. That was safe?? Anyway, second crew siding looked ok, still some mismatched seams. But the facia work was horrible, ends are not cut straight. They are not on the corners, one is cut to short and then they cut the next one to long and just beat the excess around the corners. My whole house , all the new siding, white corners are covered with grease finger prints. Eric told me that they would NOT wash the house. It all looks used, to say the least. they left holes in the siding where they cut wrong, guess they hoped I would not see it. A week ago the electrician came out to do the reconnect, we bought all new exterior lights for him to put up. 3 days ago, big wind, you all probably remember it, they blew off the house. As it turns out, he used sheet rock screws to install them, which is illegal, not up to code. So 2 days ago their Master Electrician came out to fix them. I was watching him, what a hack. They were worse than before, blamed it on the siding guys using the wrong box. He, Nate, called Eric and told him he just can't get them any better, they were way worse. I drove to Ace Hdw, bought a .33 cent spacer for each one. They no should last 15 years, like the last ones I put up. Today was the roof, I wish I never would have even started this project as All Around is the worst ever. Did I already say that? The drip is not cut to relief the overlaps, they stick out about 1/4", great seal against water like that. But, that is better than the corners of the house where the drip edge meets another, I can stick my finger between the drip edge and facia. But the worst has to be the outside corners of the drip edge they did. One of them, the hole is so big I stuck a pencil in it for the photo. None of them are cut on corner, the overlap on some sticks out. I other words, instead of it being tucked in behind the abutting drip edge, they just beat it around the corner with a hammer. It just gets worse from there. Today when I told Nick Zeman, he stated that when we meet he will show me why they do it that way. I got to ask, why they will leave huge holes in the roof for bees, bats, mice and squirrels to get in. I won't bore you much longer, but all should know that when Brian Kallhof first sent in the request to our insurance, Integrity of Columbus, OH, adjuster Matt J. denied the claim for the siding. Eventually telling me that Brian Kallhof was on the verge of committing fraud as he tried to pawn off the wrong siding sample on him. he got caught. I did get the siding approved, picked out the best Norandex makes, paid $13,000 check to All Around. A month later Brian calls me and tells me that he sold me siding that Norandex does not make. Should have have not known that. But that All Around was now going to sell me an inferior product, thinner, at the same price. I know that this is quite the horror story, well it is Oct. But I guess I was such a fool for staying with them. Moral of all of this is DO NOT EVER, EVER USE ALL AROUND CONSTRUCTION, 2265 Wayzata Blvd, Long Lake MN, FOR ANYTHING.

I definitely recommend All Around. We did a pretty major project on a large house with a full siding, gutters, stone work, and window replacement. The siding job in particular was really, really well done. They did what they promised, and our house looks great, and it was actually done quite a bit faster than we expected. It was far from cheap, but we didn't cut any corners on the project, and their bid was basically the lowest once everything was included. I do recommend All Around, these guys are legit.

"Your project was one to be proud of. What a major transformation! We really enjoyed working with you guys on your house. We look forward to replacing your roof in the next 3-5 years :) Enjoy the new look."

All Around Delivered - My new roof and gutters look great!
Kyle informed me a head of time of arrangements, executed as intended and met all my expectations. The crew was punctual, productive, and efficient. Supplies and dumpster were delivered and removed following a JIT process making the site clean and hazard free. All were courteous to work with. Thank you to the crew for the great job they performed. By the way, EVERYONE was respectful of both me and the property which seems to be harder and harder to come across. Kyle made this an easy and hassle free process. Thank you to everyone at All Around for a job well done.

They responded quickly to my request for an estimate. When that person looked at the situation and wasn't exactly sure of everything that would be needed, he came again with an an HVAC installer to make sure they gave me an accurate description of the job and the cost.
They quickly made appointments for the installation and the painters. All workers were polite, patient and professional.
I later had a concern about the performance of one of the vents. They quickly sent the installer over and he diagnosed the likely cause, took additional action and there was no additional cost to me even though a purchase was necessary.
I chose them due to reviews on Angie's List. I would definitely contact them for future home repair services. First of all, I believe the cost was fair. The work was certainly done in a timely manner and I trusted each of the people who came to my home. The entire process was smooth and without stress.

The two biggest impressions, after having 5 total estimates, was that the owner of All Around plus my project manager came out to work on the initial consultation. All the paperwork was laid out and they had the best coverage guarantee as there may be an occasion to sell in the future, so the coverage applies to next owner. The owner and the project manager, very knowledgable and approached sales with education and utmost respect for all my questions as a person new to roofing old houses and St Paul building codes. What answers they didn't know, they helped connect and talk to other specialists within the company or ones they use as consultants/subcontractors. The project had to be delayed because of rain, which happens. I was kept apprised. All permits were done correctly. All options on the roof were given as choices (venting, type, etc), but I had the final say. All communication (phone/email) was very prompt and thorough.
The actual foreman of the work team was knowledgable and the team worked hard. I will be honest and say (it was the end of Oct and was chilly) I reached out and made beverages (hot especially) available all day on my front porch in appreciation and respect for their hard work. The crew did an amazing job of cleaning up as well.
The one thing I will request in the future (as we will definitely consider them), is the project manager stopping by in person on site and/or the empowerment of the foreman to discuss the progress, was decking to be replaced, etc., on the actual work day. To credit, my project manager was available by phone and answered questions about the progress of the the project. The project manager did come out after work was done a day later, re-swept the area for nails, etc., checked over the to do list. There were some tweaks that were revealed (such as new chimney flashing revealed the need for tucking) and we ran into a weird St Paul code, but was guided through and advised well. I did not make final payment until everything was done to both project manager's and my satisfaction. All costs were upfront, not hidden, and all discussed ahead rather than sticking me with it and surprising me...as nothing can be certain until the materials pulled out. The only add-on was the chimney tuck, which again had to do with the old flashing and new flashing being different shapes.
As always, one must have patience when working on house projects and expect a few things to come up. All was in good hands with All Around.

"Thank you so much for the very detailed review. Perhaps the review of the year! I (Nick) had the chance to chat with you a few times regarding your venting and what was best for your home. You made our job easier by being such a great, kind and understanding person to work for. You call us anytime for help in the future and we will do whatever we can to help you out. Your business is appreciated. Thanks again!"

All Around came through on short notice with a very competitive price relative to other reputable roofers. We could have found a less expensive roofer, but we wanted a company with a solid history of competent work. The dumpster ended up sitting in our driveway a day or so after the work was completed. All Around indicated that the dumpster company they use was running behind. Otherwise, the job went well.
Response from All Around
"Thank you for the kind words. I know the dumpster part can be a nuisance, but it's an unfortunate part of the project that we cannot go without. We try to coordinate the dumpster to be picked up asap, but with the business of the summer, that doesn't always happen. We apologize for that. We are happy to hear we delivered otherwise. Please don't hesitate to reach out to us if we can do anything for your in the future."

These guys were great to work with. We particularly enjoyed working with Brandon - he was friendly, professional, honest and knowledgeable. We went back and forth with them on scope and price and were happy with the ultimate scope that still fit our budget. We enjoyed the seamless nature that AA handled things like installation day. Their "All American" crew, aka. all English speaking, was rock solid and finished tearing off our old roof and putting up the new one in less than a day! They were very efficient and did a nearly perfect job of picking up after themselves. Found some miscellaneous stuff around the yard afterwards, but it's impossible to do a perfect job rolling the front and back after a big job like they did.
They were very smooth in handling the dumpster drop off the day before and picking it up the day of the install (they minimized the hassle of having a huge dumpster in your driveway, which was awesome!). They handled the city permits, inspection and GAF lifetime warranty with ease. It was a relief to pick such a reliable roofing company on a major project like replacing your roof. We like the way our roof looks now and have gone to AA for referrals for other services like plumbing, insulation, etc. b/c we trust them. They excel at what they do!

It was great from start to finish. The estimating process was done by the project manager and construction supervisor. They spent time to explain everything to me. Before any work was done, they arranged to have the city inspector out to validate the work plan, altered as needed, and then scheduled the job.
Jake, the project manager, was a wonderful communicator and kept me informed at every step. The two men who did the work were so professional and approachable. They left everything in pristine condition.
I initially graded the price as good rather than excellent jut because it was a lot of money. However, All Around provided the estimate, was willing to do the work, acknowledged difficult working conditions [deck built in clay soil and only about 4 feet off the ground] and we feel the price was absolutely fair. When they finished, it was excellent value for the money paid. So, I changed it to excellent.
All Around does a variety of work and we will definitely keep them on our short list for upcoming projects. The experience could not have been better.

They showed up when they said they would. They had their quote back the next day. We were able to pick a date that worked out when I could be home. When the work started they were careful not to damage my landscaping. They cleaned up the left over material and had it done quickly. The crew was nice and smiled when they saw you and they weren't blasting the radio the whole time :) . I was really happy with the experience!

They came several weeks earlier to take final measurements and took the drawers that would be refaced. Once the cabinetry had been built and stained, we were called for installation. They arrived as scheduled and finished the cabinetry, countertops and plumbing within two days. The painters arrived as scheduled on the 3rd day and finished in a timely fashion. We were more than pleased with the final product.

We had a flood in our basement after all the rain last spring. After the clean-up was completed, Jesse Smith from All Around came in and bid the reconstruction job. I attempted to get a bid from a couple of other contractors, but they never showed up. Jesse not only showed up at the scheduled time, he was also very professional and personable, explaining what work needed to be done and the time frame it would take his company to complete the job. We accepted his bid. He then sent a team in to do the job and even coordinated subcontractor work, permits, etc. They were professional, prompt, polite, friendly and showed up every day until the job was done and the results are fabulous. They even worked directly with our insurance company to make sure everything done was covered and there were no surprises after the fact. They were so great to work with, we are also hiring them for work that needs to be done at an office building we own. I highly recommend this contractor!

They did a fantastic job! They powered washed, scraped, and sanded all areas to be painted. They replaced wood that was deteriorated.

I had gotten previous estimates to repair the whole in my garage roof and all of the other contractors wanted to replace the whole roof or even worse half the roof.
Charles came out and was very nice and was straight with me and said you only need to get the whole fixed. He could have easily went along with the other contractors but Charles WAS A GOOD HONEST MAN!
Everything was done properly clean when they left and was completed on time. I couldn't be happier and will be calling on All Around for my future re-models I am planning.

The crew did a great job. The prep work was extensive -doors an windows covered, fixtures removed and probably more that I didn't see-since the windows and and doors were covered. But judging by all the items in the yard, it was extensive.
When complete, we did a circuit tour of the house and garage.
Both buildings look great.
The painted areas just "glowed", probably the semi-gloss.
We are impressed by the professionalism shown by All Around - the estimate process to the finished work.
