"I decided to upgrade several elements of my home and hired Merryfield. They were fabulous. Lew (co-owner) helped me to figure out what I needed, but at the same time, respected my simpler taste and budget. The work crew was terrific. I work from home 3 days a week and I was totally comfortable while they were there and equally comfortable when I wasn't there. I have a snarky dog whom the crew completely charmed. I can't say enough about the friendliness, cleanliness and politeness of the workers. I found the folks at Merryfield to be good communicators, timely and flexible. They stayed very much within my budget. I couldn't be happier with the outcome!"

"My Bathroom was transformed beyong my expectations! The Guys are Linchpin took the time to plan out my new Bathroom with me and made sure to cover every detail! I am extremely Happy and Highly Recommend LinchPin Home Improvements and Cannot wait to Plan my next Project!"

"CMP was responsive, easy to work with, and at a fair price.  My driveway is approximately 1200 sq feet and had drainage issues.  They removed the old driveway and installed the new driveway along with a drain system to ensure drainage to the street.  In addition they power washed my steps and front bricks and painted the railing.  Overall the front of my house went through an overhaul and looks a thousand times cleaner and more attractive.  CMP was easy to work with and responsive.  I found it easy to communicate with them via email.  They were responsive and found the time to get the work done despite poor weather.  I would definitely work with CMP in the future."

"The service and work were so superb that I actually hired Beyond Renovations instead of the previous contractor to remodel my kitchen and install new kitchen flooring. Rich and his crew have also performed numerous side jobs for me as well such as waterproofing and hydraulic cementing my basement as well as cutting and trimming trees. As a single female homeowner I appreciate that Rich does not try to take advantage of me as many contractors have and he has the best pricing i have yet to find anywhere around. I highly recommend Beyond Renovations for any of your home remodeling or specific project needs!!!"

"We had a shed pad installed for our new shed. Bob really worked to make sure we understood the different types of pads we could get as well as the ground leveling process. He was the only contractor we talked to that put the pad in the ground (excavating some dirt) so that it didn't just sit on top. As an added bonus, he swiped away a patch of really thick ivy that we've been struggling with. When scheduling the pad, he did delay the installation due to weather issues, showing real concern that if we didn't delay at least a day, the installation would be less than the professional level he likes to leave with. I left for the morning to go to work and when I came home, the pad was ready for a shed.
Bob shows a concern for his homeowner's well being in all matters and is very knowledgable. I fully recomend him to anyone seeking a similar install, and will consider Rock-a-fella's when ever I have a gravelly/patio/deck need in the future.

"Jim and his guys were absolutely great to work with...  I've never had the privilege of working with a contractor that was so punctual and knowledgeable before.
Throughout the entire project, Jim and his crew (2-5 guys depending on what was being done on a specific day) were punctual... showing up at 7AM every day.  They always responded to phones calls, texts and emails without fail.  Saying these guys are good communicators is an understatement and I am glad that I have found "my contractor."
They started with the messiest project first, of course... the ceiling. Scraping, sanding, skimming multiple times to bring my 80s ceiling into the current century.  The texture had been painted over so many times in the past but this group made quick work of it.  They covered everything in plastic to protect furniture that I couldn't remove in advance and cleaned up after themselves at the end of each day.  In the first couple of days they focused on getting as much done to the ceiling as possible before hitting a point where they just had to wait for things to dry.
Once the ceiling dry time gate was gone, they really began spending full days at my home to ensure they stuck to their projected schedule (and to help ensure I had my home available for some pre-planned social events).
They pulled up carpet, began laying flooring, preparing for the walls to be painted and baseboard to be replaced.  Their attention to detail was great... picking up on things that needed to be done that my wife and I hadn't necessarily noticed and clearly taking pride in their work.  They continued to be very communicative, letting us know what was happening, what the plans were for a given day, etc etc.
There were never any "surprise issues" that they tried to charge me for... actually, any time they found anything or we had small requests or tweaks they handled it without issue and seemed to hold getting the job done right and making us happy above anything else.
I cannot stress enough how much I've come to trust these guys in the last 2 weeks... knowing all of them by name and getting to know their personalities.  These are good guys.  They didn't make us feel like we were in the way or a bother if we had questions or wanted to see something.
They also took a lot of care to minimize the impact on our daily life.  The work was mostly done in our living and dining room (in addition to stairways, hallways, etc) so some impact is unavoidable.  For example, when the flooring wasn't 100% complete, they laid flooring in the primary walking path from our front door so that we had flooring to walk on (instead of the concrete below).  There were a lot of small things like that, where the Hunt group really just went out of their way to make the renovation a pleasant experience for us.
The flooring was put down, baseboard, and the walls got painted... all in all the project stuck to it's 1.5 week estimate.  We were walked through all the work multiple times to ensure we were happy and address any questions/concerns/etc.
It really turned out great, we are so thrilled with the way our home has been transformed.
After the work was officially completed and I shook everyone's hand for what I thought was the final time on this project... they stepped up once again to help me.  We had another group out to do some electrical work and run wiring for a new home theater and they created some holes in the walls.  Well, I sent Jim a text message that evening and asked if he could help me.  Not only did he come out the next morning to get the holes fixed for me, he didn't even charge me for it.  He really wanted us to be happy with the result of all of the work that had been done.
In summary, I really feel very thankful to have met Jim through Angie's List.  We had a lot of past experiences with contractors, good and bad... but I am glad that I have found "our guy."  He takes a lot of pride in his teams work and takes a genuine interest in the way his customer feels at the end of the project.
Really great experience... Jim and I are already talking about the rest of our short and long term "home project list."

"This is the second time I've turned to Mark for help in getting a home loan. The reason I'm a repeat customer is that Mark is great. He always gets me the absolute best rate and is an honest, tell-it-like-it-is person - so very appreciated during the confusing and scary process of getting a mortgage.
I tend to run a little on the neurotic side, and Mark handled my constant badgering and near freak-outs with great finesse, providing just the right amount of hand-holding and straight-up advice. This time around, I bought my home through a private sale, meaning neither party used a realtor. So I needed even more attention and guidance. Mark not only did a great job with the mortgage, he also gave me invaluable advice on issues related to the sale but outside his scope, such as home inspection.
A big THANKS to Mark. I couldn't have done it without you and Judy!

"Office staff is always available for help. No job is too small or too big. They are responsive to our needs for service requests from roofing to foundations. All aspects of home repairs have been done professionally and in a timely manner. I would recommend Marketplace Homes for all your property management needs regarding property repairs and maintenance."

"MAKING IT RIGHT. We have lived in our house for 3 years and have done numerous projects (Kitchen, Master Bath, Master Bedroom, Family Room, Stone Patio, Roof) to personalize and customize the home we will raise our children in.

I can say without a doubt that Rick Osborne is the BEST contractor we have worked with.  After working with a variety of contractors for the other projects we knew what was important to us when we undertook our basement renovation. We were  obviously looking for someone who did good work with a number of referrals and years of experience. That said, we were also looking for someone who was responsive and who stood behind their work when challenges and curveballs occur (and after doing multiple projects - they always do).

Our project started out with a delay when we came to the realization that we needed a new french drain and sump system - this only became apparent when we demolished the existing basement walls which were framed on top of the crushed rock of the french drain. Rick was a great resource - he connected us with a public adjuster who worked with our insurance company to recoup most of the money we needed to lay out to install the new drainage system.  Once this was resolved, the project moved forward quickly with Rick and his team proactively identifying and suggesting improvements to the agreed upon plan - improvements that will make a true difference in how we, as a family will use the space.

Lastly and most importantly, there were two instances where things did not go right - the wrong special order doors were delivered and some drywall needed to be redone. In BOTH instances, Rick took responsibility and accountability for the issue and worked quickly to resolve the situation at NO COST to us. It is important to point out that these two challenges were not directly Rick's responsibility but as the GC he MADE IT RIGHT at his own expense.

Whenever we had a question, he responded the same day if not within the same hour. He communicated proactively and took the time to explain what he was doing and planning and more importantly, why he was doing it.

In summary - there is NO QUESTION in my mind that we will use Rick again. If you are reading this review because you are looking for someone to do excellent work, communicate proactively and reactively and stand behind his work - call Rick. You will be happy you did."
