"MW Construction built a new home for us and we couldn’t have been happier with the results. They were very professional and did a superb job. MW was quick to return our phone calls and answer any questions that we had during the building process. I would highly recommend them."
"Our project was a 14' x 14' screened porch. We selected Scott SCS from other contractors based on the interview, his knowledge, understanding of the project, and communication skills. He improved our original design and made numerous suggestions during the construction process. He understood our vision of the porch and he delivered. From start to finish Scott and his work crew were always on time, polite, professional, and cleaned up the area before departing every day. I was on site watching and taking photos. So I can attest to the craftmanship and attention to detail of the crew. Every day I was informed of their plans and then I provided my thoughts, ideas, and concerns. We are extremely pleased with the finish porch and I would highly recommend SCS. They are a 10 in every category."
"Z, Came to my home in Wildwood Crest. He gave me a quote to remodel my laundry room. He was professional, efficient but most of all he gave us advice. He went above and beyond our expectations. The laundry room looks great. I had loose steps coming from my back deck to the yard. I ask Z if that was something he can do? He said, let me grab lunch and a couple tools to do the step and I’ll be back. He gave me a great price and the steps are perfect. Real good guy and very honest. Ray"
"Ac better homes llc -roberto reynaud,
Our house was built in 1926. We have lived in our home since 1946. It was remodeled over 50 years ago with new additions.
The interior had not changed since. As my parents have gotten older, as you can imagine i have had to do some construction, lighting, plumbing, doors and locks, and exterior roofing repairs within the past 6 months.
I found roberto through a family member he had done some beautiful work for which included painting from floor to ceiling, new flooring, fixtures etc. I am happy to say that roberto is a treasure. He is an honest and hard-working young man.
Roberto is dependable, reliable, and forthright regarding his value and pricing and necessity for the jobs that he does. To date Roberto and his team has: 1. rebuilt the stairs to my basement. 2. recovered my kitchen floor with new covering. 3. replaced lighting fixtures in my bathrooms, pantry and kitchen ceiling. 4. replaced locks for my external doors. 5. replaced a leaking"
"Joe and his subs did a great job for us. Price was fair, and he was either here, or could almost always be reached, when the work was going on. All the subs were excellent at their specialty and also nice guys that you wouldn't mind letting in your home. Both Joe and they were always sensitive to the fact that we had to live here while the work was going on, and tried to inconvenience us as little as possible. Joe worked with us with each change and/or additional work we requested, and the addition to the bedrooms and new master bath were just what we hoped for. The finished product is beautiful, and we would recommend Joe for any job."
"Mr. Cowan was very responsive. He came out timely and performed the work as described. He also recommended some additional work that needed to be done. He took his work very seriously and did an excellent job. I believe he was a little highly priced, but it is very difficult to find a reliable chimney contractor, and therefore, well worth it. "
"Smooth as can be. Peter handled all of the permit process with the City and coordinated the necessary sub contractors to build us a beautiful bathroom for our second bedroom. They protected all of our furniture and carpet with coverings and cleaned up nicely after work was completed. Highly recommend them would definitely use them for any future work."
"Prompt, courteous and professional. My limited availability was accommodated. The faucet replacement was very quick and done professionally. The replacement parts were affordable and high quality. I would use Doc's again in the future."
"It went very well. If you are looking for a reputable, dependable and competitively priced contractor to renovate your bathrooms, I highly recommend Kitchen & Bathroom King LLC. They just completed renovating two bathrooms in my North Wildwood condo and they did an excellent job; great work, on time and within quoted budget. Kitchen & Bathroom King LLC is a one stop shop. They handle it all; permits, plumbing, electrical, sheet rock and spackling, tiling, painting and clean-up. Definitely a contractor to include when getting quotes on a renovation project."
