Get matched with top contractors in Blair, NE

"Ryan is very responsive, but a lot of the details (trim, corners, clean up) in the the job were poorly done for the tiles and carpentry. There were some significant mistakes around executing the asked for design that ended up causing delays and costing more money. If you hire him, you should check his crew work routinely so mistakes can be corrected. He is really good at fixing the mistakes while the job is ongoing. Unfortunately, I have been finding things a month later and fixing them now would be cost prohibited."

"He did an excellent job at a reasonable price. Very polite and really cares about getting the job done right. I will definitely hire him again."

"Perfectly. R&R Hauling has done work for me several times. They have consistently provided prompt, reliable, friendly service at a good price."

"We originally contacted Angie's List because we thought we just needed a small deck railing repair. After a handful of contractors came to our house, and gave us their bed, as well as their thoughts on our deck and railing, we were then faced with our worst nightmare! It was not just our railings and that needed repairing we needed a completely new deck!...
With estimates coming in from 6 to 8 companies from here on Angie's List and private contractors and a friend from high school who owns the company in Lincoln...the estimates that were coming in were more than we could wrap our mind around.
Our last estimate to come in was from Paul with Marathon Services! .. By then we were past overwhelmed. ...and had no idea what we were going to do, let alone how we were going to pay for this repair..aka whole new deck!
Paul listened to what our situation was... (really didn't use our deck at all since we had been in our house..nearly 2 yrs)...our biggest concern was the SAFETY of our family especially that of our nearly 3 yr old son. Paul could relate as he has grandkids...and could relate to us wanting the best and safest environment!
We had a low budget...but we needed great quality! Paul told us he would help us make it happen.
Moving some things around , Paul gave us a number that was more than fair!...Better than we could believe. ..and assured us he would take great care of us...not to worry anymore! !
But of course I did....and made 2 million calls asking questions. .questioning the work of his guys.. (like I knew better..haha)...and Paul and his crew answered my questions and re assured me every time!
Being that safety was such a concern of ours...as we wanted to be able to spend much more time on our new deck...and be able to allow our son to be on the deck and not worry he was going to lean on something and fall to the ground....not feeling like we were closed in was important as well..
I started to look on the Internet at different options. ..when I found something that I thought would work..I gave Paul a call...and he was VERY OPEN to my idea...!
Our (my husband and myself) concern again was money. .budget. ..
Paul moved things around. ..exchanged things...and gave us our special personalized and very unique deck railings!
Paul really understood and agreed that this would be the best and safest for my family! ....
Half way through the project.... I asked for one more thing... A gate with a latch at the top of the stairs for one more safety measure for our son.... Paul's crew made it happen too!!!
Except for a couple of scheduling issues in the beginning.... (when we were able to meet up for the first time..Paul arrived with a pie in hand for the inconvenience of rescheduling a couple times..) .. (which seemed to be more upsetting to Paul than to us).. and a day or so of rain... (which the crew worked in part of the time)... our experience was Spectacular!
We are more than satisfied with Paul and marathon services. Paul had our best interest at hand and that is appreciated more than he may realize!
We would definitely use Marathon Services again in the future and will refer anyone we know to marathon services if the job fits!

"Great!! Provider was professional, super nice and considerate. I would hire him again for any future plumbing need."

"Beau was extremely responsive, professional, and an overall amazing contractor to work with. Being a military family, we found out last minute we would have to put our house up for sale and move. Beau ensured the job got done quickly (without skimping on quality) and in time to put our home up for sale. Both we and the buyers LOVE the result. We would definitely recommend Premier Painting for projects and will continue to use him in the future!"

"It went really well.  Mike and his team were so incredibly efficient and easy to work with.  And most importantly they listened to our requests and then actually took the time to do the things we asked them to do.  We had an easy yet very specific request for the hallway and they did exactly what we asked.  (We gave the same request to another contractor and they ended up doing business as usual instead of what we asked.)  They cleaned up the area and didn't leave a single mark on my walls.  This all seems like such common sense but we've had first hand experience with store contractors where these things didn't happen and my brand new walls were dented and marked.   We've had multiple bad experiences in the past using the "free" installation provided by the store where we purchased the carpet.  I would highly recommend taking control of your contractor and hiring the installation yourself.  It was much easier then I thought it would be. 
MWC also showed up on time and finished as promised.  And it actually ended up saving me money because I didn't have to take multiple days off of work.

Lined up another sub-contractor to come by and give estimate to take out wall so I could expand/add kitchen island, but neither the first person I met with nor the sub-contractor followed up with me to provide the total estimate.  I left a message a few weeks later asking for a call back and never received one.

 In the end, whether they could do the work I was asking for or not, had they followed up with me, I would have considered them for my cabinet refinishing work, which I will be doing this summer.  

UPDATE November 7, 2014: The owner of the co got back with me after seeing this review. He went above and beyond to address the poor follow through and put me in touch with another designer who promptly contacted me and drew up some plans. They addressed all my questions and on top of that he even reimbursed the $50 fee. I was very pleased with the recommendation, timeliness and over all effort to make it right."

"When we decided to redo our kitchen in April of 2012, we knew what we wanted fixed, our budget and that's about it. We started talking to contractors, kitchen design centers and researching ideas. We quickly realized we were in WAY over our heads. A lot of places offer free design services if you buy all of your materials through them. We didn't want to be tied down. We didn't want a complete tear down to the studs, either. Homemade Design to the rescue! First of all the price was an absolute steal for the service provided. Amanda and co. Listened to what we wanted and came up with inovative,functional and beautiful solutions. Our house is old. We wanted to keep that 1920s feel, but still have a dishwasher, granite countertops and stainless appliances! Amanda had the brilliant idea of only replacing the bottom cabinets. She also gave me excellent instructions on how to refinish my existing cabinets so they look like new. This was a perfect solution for US. Homemade Design gave us ideas for layout, cabinets, lighting, wall paint, appliances, furniture, countertops, backsplash, faucets, sink,and cusions for built in. She would have recommended flooring if we wanted,but we didn't. Now, Amanda is more like a consultant...( I actually called her my kitchen remodel therapist). You still are ultimately responsible for the plan and what works for you. If your measurements are off (like mine were) that's on you. I was adament about no island and no microwave over the stove and so she didn't put those in the design. Some suggestions were not my style. And I said so. Honestly, if I picked out my own kitchen it would be so safe: white subway tile or something. Amanda gave me the guts to mix patterns and create something spectacular! It took almost a year to complete ( contractors fault) We did a lot of work ourselves. We bought the cabinets, backsplash tile, light fixtures, table and banquette cusions through Homemade Design at a great discount, we checked!! If you try shopping for any part of your kitchen, the volume of choices can be overwhelming. We loved having Amanda narrow it down for us. Communication was through email, mostly. She never took longer than three business days to respond to my million questions or concerns. Awesome. 5 months later, my kitchen is a dream come true. And I owe it all to Homemade Design!
