I called Brewster's Excavating on 3/17/15 based on the reviews from Angie's List. I talked to a woman in the office, but I don't recall her name. I told her I was interested in scheduling an appointment to discuss some work. I told her I wanted a professional to look at my yard and help me with some drainage problems. I also told her that I was interested in having a drain line from one of my sump pumps replaced (it was clogged or had collapse, not sure which). This was on a Tuesday shortly after lunch. I was told someone would get a hold of me after they got back to the office. When I did not hear from them by Friday (3/20/15) I went to their website and filled out a contact form. I indicated that I had called a few days earlier and had not heard from them so I wanted to leave my cell phone number for them to call. In this form I again explained the work I was interested in.
I received no call from Brewster's, so I called back on 3/26/15 in the afternoon. I talked to a woman in the office who sounded like the first woman I talked to, but can not be sure. I explained how I had been waiting for a call since the prior Tuesday, and that if they were too busy, they just needed to let me know. After re-explaining what type of work I was interested in having done, I was told that at this time, Brewster's was not doing any residential work. When I asked if they had anyone else they would recommend for the work, she told me they only had recommendations for other landscaping companies.
I again want to stress that Brewster's did no work for me, so I can not comment on their price, quality of work, or punctuality. The "F" for responsiveness is because they never contacted me at all after my initial call. All contact was initiated by me. The "D" for professionalism is because I feel they could have told me right away they do not do residential work. From the first call they were informed this was for my house. Even if they got real busy after my first call, it would have taken 2 minutes to return my call and say so.

WE started our remodel on our master bath, and we just couldn't figure out how to cut the tile correctly or design it. I asked around and was recommended to call Bob and Rich for the tile work. I had the basic idea of what I wanted (white subway tile with black grout and a "banner"), but I had no idea how to pull it together. I literally just told Bob to make it look good because I was so tired of not having a functioning master bath. Our shower looks more than amazing (if that is possible). The design is very modern, but yet classic. If you need someone to lay tile or create your dream shower with Tile work these guys are the ones to do. They showed up when they said they were going to and finished in the time frame they set.

FAQs for residential design projects in Bridgeton, MO
One starting point to find a local home builder is to collect suggestions from friends and neighbors. However, it’s still wise to do some more research before you hire a builder. Read reviews to supplement any word-of-mouth recommendations. Check sources like Angi that have standards and criteria in place to screen the pros it lists can also help you find more reputable local home builders.
The cost of home remodeling is $50,000 for the average homeowner. However, this cost can range anywhere from $3,000 for a small projectto $170,000 for a whole home remodel. Factors like project size, location, and room type all affect your overall cost. For example, bedroom remodeling costs are one of the least expensive projects, costing about $1,500 to $5,500 per bedroom. However, a kitchen remodel has a significant cost range, totaling anywhere from $14,500 to over $70,000.
Typically, it’s more affordable to buy an existing home than it is to build a new one. New construction loan interest rates tend to be higher than interest rates for traditional mortgages. Additionally, the cost of materials is likely higher when building a new home than it was when an existing home was built (unless it’s a very new one). You’re also paying for all new appliances, finishes, permits, inspections, and connections for water, gas, and electricity.
Yes, most states require home remodeling contractors to be licensed, and for good reason. Hiring an unlicensed home remodeling contractor could lead to poor quality work, costly future expenses, and potential code violations.
As you browse our pro listings, take note of the “Angi Approved” badge. Angi Approved businesses meet our standards for certification which include:
The owner, principal, or relevant manager passed a criminal background check
Required to have applicable state and local licenses
Maintain an average star rating of 3.0 or better on our network, if they have at least one review
Paying to advertise their services
Meeting any other eligibility criteria required by Angi
Keep in mind licensing is different from certifications. A license is a legal requirement to operate a business, while certifications are voluntary.
The best time of year to remodel your home is late winter and early spring when fewer homeowners are thinking about projects and pros are more available. Also consider the type of remodel you want and plan ahead as much as possible. For example, the summer is a great time of year to update your fireplace, but winter is a better option for fixing foundations and building room additions.
