Get matched with top ceiling fan pros in Red Wing, MN

"Very well, in that Aaron described what he was doing and how the HVAC system is designed and installed. Really helpful. He also cleaned the blower fan blades, as they had some accumulated dust buildup."

"Hal was easy to contact and prompt in his visit to do a walk through.  He listened to what I wanted and built a gorgeous structure for me that blended well with other structures on my property.  He was respectful and timely.  I highly recommend Hall Morris."

"The pros did a great job under less than ideal circumstances. We have loose insulation in our small attic that they had to work around. They handled everything without complaints. We love our new lights and our new range hood works perfectly. Our kitchen looks so much nicer and up-to-date. I wish I had known how messy it was going to be. I would have covered everything with plastic."

"They did a fantastic job! Our house is old and has stucco walls and they add able to match the depth of the stucco perfectly and painted to match. Professional with excellent communication."

Wow...  Lot's of good and some bad here too.  First - I must say that I've never been involved with an extensive remodel before, so this was a big one for me.  Not having a lot of know-how with building things I hoped to rely on the contractor (GCM) for the oversight and expertise. 

I knew up front (after asking) whether they did the work or whether they used contractors - so, unlike other posts here, I knew what to expect - and this was fine with me - having contractors who specialize in a particular area is probably a good thing.  They could probably be more specific at the outset on this to avoid confusion though. 

As the other poster mentioned - the contractors were splitting their time with various projects - including a rather large commercial project with Pappa Johns.  This also didn't bother me - since I understand that they can't sit idle waiting for my paint to dry, tile grout to set, drywall mud to dry, etc.  This project did tend to drag on through the end of September - which seemed a bit long to me.

Part of the delay - and probably about $1000 added expense was my fault when I selected the most awful yellow paint for both main room and bathroom.  I had them repaint!  It was the best-spent money of the project!

The various contractors were both high and low points. 

Bad:

The people who sprayed the textured ceiling came unprepared - not enough tape to seal off the area - borrowed some duct tape from me, but damaged some painted areas removing it.

The wall that was installed to frame in the fireplace was so poorly done initially that I just about terminated the contract - nails sticking out whole sections of studs that were loose and uneven.

The sad part was that most of the quality control issues I had involved the GCM manager assigned to my project.  A nice fellow but not too concerned about quality.  This was unfortunate because it was what I really needed from them with my lack of experience in these things.

Good:

The tile contractor!! What a great job those guys did.  I had a natural stone tile selected for the shower - and they really worked h****** the placement of the tiles to ensure that they looked well.  It became the nicest part of the remodel.  Even the building inspector commented on how nice it looked!

The fireplace installer - The guy knew what he was doing - but they had already framed the wall for it without checking with him and he was forced to tear out the wall framing to install the fireplace - then GCM had to reframe the wall all over again.  The second reframing was the problem - the first guy who framed - and later came back to repair the reframing work, really knew his business.  That guy was quick and did quality work - as far as I could tell.  This took some skill on the part of contractors and GCM people because they had to work the venting around the main gas line along the outside wall - and gas lines running through the wall they were venting out of.  This left very little room to get the vent installed while avoiding gas lines in the wall and outside, and ensuring safe distance from privacy wall and sliding door.  They made it work and the fireplace looks wonderful and works great.

Finally - and most important, one of the owners, Ben, was terrific and was willing to bend over backwards to make sure I was satisfied with the end result.  This guy was very professional in handling every aspect of the project from the bid - which he was one of the few who came and gave me one, to satisfying my concerns and complaints.

Yes...I would consider using them again (perhaps not the project manager if I could avoid that), but they were up front about the cost - made allowances for multiple changes I requested (move the fireplace, recess the lighting, tile everything, and of course - that repainting issue I created).  With the exception of the textured ceiling sprayers, all the contractors were respectful and friendly and seemed to have a good knowledge of their craft.

"This was an excellent experience from start to finish. The person who took my call was helpful and pleasant, and the estimate provided over the phone was very close to the final cost. Ben, the electrician, arrived on time, assessed the project and was patient with my decisions and questions about the one difficult fan installation. The difficult fan had to be installed in the finished upper story of my 1 1/2 story house... over an open stairwell, and in a pitched roofline. There were a number of issues with that installation, and Ben checked in with me at several decision points. Other than that, he went right to work. The other fans and overhead fixture were pretty standard, and he finished them quickly. I was very pleased with Ben's professionalism and wouldn't hesitate to recommend his work to family and friends. I will definitely call Cady again if I need help with projects around the house. This project would have taken me a whole weekend, and took Ben 3 hours."

"Installed ground fault interrupters, dimmer switch  and also fixed ceiling fixture.  No complaints. On time.  Courteous repair man."

"The furnace took 4 days to get approved( not counting a Sunday) the others were quick but the water heater had to be ordered so without hot water for a week. One ceiling fan was easy but within a year their policy changed and They would not install the one I purchased and had to get a new one approved and then ordered online and took several weeks to get straightened out. Not sure who was at fault, AHS, installer or scheduling with renter. Fee is usually $75 per visit"
