"Our files show that this project is from 8 years ago, in 2009. We don't have any information listed about how we interacted with the client, which would normally mean that it was limited to a phone conversation. The client's review doesn't list any specifics, so it's difficult to know how to respond. Often times, with smaller projects like this coming to us during an intense work schedule, we will refer clients to contractors who specialize in repair work. Possibly that was the case here. We certainly sorry that the client felt that she didn't receive sufficient attention. Bob Buck"
Our 115-year old kitchen was in need of a total remodel due to age and other remodeling efforts that were done poorly in the past. The kitchen was gutted down to the studs which revealed structural problems that were caused by a previous remodel. Buck Brothers addressed this issue with flying colors and the lead carpenter was amazing in fixing the structural problem and all other aspects of rebuilding the kitchen. The cost of the project was higher than we anticipated but the final outcome was worth it and we definitely got our monies worth.
It is hard to single out the most valuable sub-contractor; they were all top notch but I have to give special thanks to Tracy the project manager, Scott the carpenter, D&B Custom Woods ( beautiful cabinets and right on miter cuts), Paramount Granite (great quality and excellent installation). I must add that the electrician, plumber and heating contractors had their work cut out for them. The painters were meticulous, respectful, and very helpful with color selection and fun to work with.
The kitchen was totally gutted down to the studs.
New wiring was installed, the heating vent moved, an exhaust fan venting thru the roof installed, insulation added to the walls, all new cabinets and marmoleum click flooring installed
Tracy stopped by every day to check on things and keep me updated on the progress. She was great to work with.
They have very good subcontractors. The area was cleaned up every day.
I knew that the floor and plumbing were going to be an issue, and interviewed three different contractors after reviewing them on Angies List and the BBB. Owner Joe Buck came out to view the project, and immediately requested that he bring out his plumbing expert as he could see the same concerns that I had,
Joe was able to put together a proposal and design with my intention looking back from the completed project that the bath looked like it had always been a part of our home.
The 8 week project was exactly on schedule for 99% of the work. The quality and craftsmanship are amazing, and we could not be more pleased with the end result.
Joe and his project manager Tracy communicated well and often, we were kept appraised of the status throughout the entire project and we knew we had a team taking good care of our home.
Thank you to the entire team that helped turn the worst room in our home to one of the best!
Bob Buck and all the people who work for Buck Brothers were knowledgeable, professional and punctual. The original plan that we came up with wasn't going to work, but the project foreman, Joey, came up with an even better one. There were some delays due to weather that were beyond their control, but past that the project was on schedule. The electrician, carpenter, roofer and painters were all excellent.
We would definitely hire them again.We enjoyed working with the people of Buck Brothers. They kept to their schedule and communicated well throughout the project.
All the subs were good to work with. We did have a bit of trouble with painting in kitchen where we specified a brand & type sub-contracter wasn't used too. They did a good job responding to correct some defects.
We are very pleased with our new kitchen and we would happily use Buck Brothers again for any future project!
Once the project started, it went very quickly. Every day there was someone here working on the kitchen. The sub-contractors were scheduled well so there were no hang ups or long periods of time when no work was going on. Joe and his crew provided excellent communication, Joe called almost everyday to tell me what progress had been made, if any problems were found and what was coming up next. Of course, when you open up the walls of a hundred year old house you find some surprises. Joe kept on top of the budget and the cost of change orders.
The crew and sub-contractors were very professional. My husband works nights and they were very respectful to work without music in the early morning and keeping sound down as much as possible. They were also very organized and kept the space very clean.
I put off remodeling the kitchen for so many years because of all the horror stories I had heard about working with contractors, but my project was a great experience. I would definitely hire Buck Brothers again. I love my new kitchen!
