Sunroom or Patio Enclosure - Build
We hired Sam and his nephew to redo a screened-in porch. When a friend stopped by and noticed some questionable work being done, we asked Sam to wait on doing it anymore until we were able to ask him in person about these things. We know nothing about construction and have been burned in the past by awful contractors and just wanted to be sure things were as they should be. This is the point where things went south. Sam became pretty defensive and seemed like he just wanted to be done with us. The project took far longer than estimated (yes I realize it was an estimate ), and any time something was brought into question he was visibly annoyed. At one point he asked me to hang fans...thought I hired him? At one point a large amount of concrete was poured into my driveway without any thought of asking. His response was it s a gravel driveway and it ll bust-up and you would not notice it ...still there. I will pass over the unbelievable amount of cigarette butts that my children walked over and picked up all over my yard. Once completed we noticed mold forming under the overhang of the roof. When called Sam said oh yeah I will be there next week a month later he gave the same response. A week after that it was the same response and the same after that. I finally got a roofer on top of the roof of the porch and he could not believe what he saw. After having the roofer fix what needed to be fixed and resealed I still have heard no word from Sam and it is probably for the best. At the end of the day, the majority of the project was done and looks good. However after all the time, effort and having to have someone else come behind him to fix the problems I would not recommend.

"You had someone come over, I went and met them at your house at 7 o clock in the afternoon, your friend had no construction experience and has no credentials too, so I listened to the points of interest, and I assured you that those points of interest were to be done, the job was not finished at the time. Cigarette butts on the job: I told you, do not worry about that, when we are finished, we will pick up every giblet left on your property, we took off all trash and we did numerous things for you for free. You had a one-year warranty, I still came out to your house and looked at the edge of the roof where you said was holding water."

Mr. Sam Burns was a joy to work with.  I know nothing about home repair/maintenance and Mr. Burns was patient as can be, explaining  the steps and reasoning behind individual tasks.   When our project to paint the interior of the home, spruce up the kitchen with new counter tops and back splash and update a bathroom mushroomed into some must do home repairs (roof repair/replacement, ceiling and carpentry repair)  He presented me with various options to consider to address each "surprise" encountered.  He was mindful of costs and our bottom line thru the entire project.  Once a plan was agreed on,  the work went very smoothly.   His crew was professional, skilled, worked steady thru the day and they were exceedingly polite.   You will be in good hands if you select Mr. Burns

Mr. Sam Burnes did an excellent job repairing the leak in my roof and the water stains on my dining room ceiling. He went right to work and completed the job while he was here. It is refreshing to get professional services at a reasonable price. I will definitely call Mr. Sam for any future repair services. Highly recommend you hire him.

We contracted with Mr. Burns to paint and repair the exterior of our home. We received several quotes for this project. Mr. Burns was the most knowledgeable and reasonably priced of all the contractors we met. In addition, his work was high quality and impeccable. We are extremely happy with the outcome and look forward to working with Mr. Burns again in the future!

Sam and his crew were very accommodating to quickly get the roofing project started and completed as agreed to. Kept the work space cleaned up. Sam was very willing to offer suggestions to any inquires I had. Does what he says he will do! My wife was set on the metal roof and Sam was accommodating and thorough in reviewing it with us. I would not hesitate to hire them for any future projects that may come up.

Deck or Porch - Build or Replace

I initially called Sam to give me a quote on rebuilding my front porch and doing some other work inside my home. His quote was reasonable and after reading reviews I decided to hire him for the job. I was very impressed with his commitment to the job, his attention to detail, and the great quality of his work. I ended up having him do some other work as well and it was all of exceptional quality. He painted the exterior of my home and the result was beautiful. I have been extremely pleased with this experience and plan to keep Sam's phone number on speed dial. I would recommend him for any type of home repair or remodel.

Popcorn Acoustic Ceiling Texture Application, Repair or Removal
Yes, I recommend this pro
Sam just finished a job at our house. We hired him to remove the popcorn ceiling on our vaulted living room ceiling, make any needed repairs and then paint the ceiling and the living room/hallway. He and his crew were on time every day, they worked a full workday, cleaned up after themselves and the living room looks better now than it did when new. We are definitely going to look to Sam when we remodel our kitchen in the future.
