"We had the trim done throughout our downstairs, and I honestly can?t believe what a difference it made. They were so easy to work with professional, respectful of our home, and knocked everything out much quicker than I expected. They really listened to what I wanted, paid attention to the little details, and the finished product turned out even better than I had pictured. It completely transformed the space and made our downstairs feel so much more finished and put together. If you?re thinking about having trim work done, I can?t recommend them enough. We?re so happy with how everything turned out!"
"Greg did excellent work on a bathroom remodeling project for a rental house in Grandview. He first removed damaged sheetrock, then he treated the area for mold. He replaced the damaged sheetrock with cement board and installed new tiles. In addition to the original work, he had to re-install plumbing and add new insulation. He showed great patience during the project as the tenant obstructed his work hours, making entry into the house a challenge. The finished bathroom looks great!"
"Work was expertly done. We were under time constraints to get the work completed. The contactor provided a detailed quote for the work and was able to complete the job on time, while having to working around our staff and customers shopping throughout the store. I was very pleased with the overall experience and would certainly use him again for any other painting or general contracting jobs."
"We had them build a wheelchair ramp on the end of our porch. They were very careful to make sure the ramp would work for my wheelchair. They also made sure they cleaned everything up when the project was done."
"DeckNology (Dean and Nick), which is a Father and Son business, were always eager to help plan our project or answer questions. We enjoyed working with them very much. The project was finished on time in spite pf the horrible heat we were experiencing. I would recommend Decknology for decks, pergolas, or anything else they want to build. They are talented builders with a great work ethic. They will give you the best value for your buck. You can't go wrong. We are very satisfied with their work. If we have any similar projects, they will be our first call. The pergola they built for us is "one of a kind"!"
"Matthew did numerous projects for me. Built me an entire new fence to replace an old one, repaired an aging deck, and repaired my lawn shed. Work was done in a timely manner, work was very well done. I highly recommend CPR to anyone needing projects done well and priced fairly. Will hire Matthew again."
"We have used Excel for several projects now, including replacing siding, building deck stairs and posts. He is awesome and is always our first call when a new project comes up!"
"We had a full fence and deck built. It was a fairly big job. The number one thing that impressed me was that they showed up. We had appoints from 3 companies for bids and the other two never showed up or called, 3 other companies never even bothered to return a call. Once we agreed, thatâ d started the project in a couple days. We had a few bumps along the way with communication on what we wanted done but we are very happy with the final project."
"David did a good job for me. He did exactly what we agreed on. Installed grasses and shrubs and put rock down. Also installed pavers. His company is professional and very easy to work with. I would highly recommend Four Seasons Landscaping & Hardscaping LLC"
