"Skip and his crew were professional and courteous and easy to work with.
1) The chandelier was no easy task to install. They did a great job: A
2) Ceiling fan in bedroom w/ remote and wall controls: A
3) Window screens: I had all of the screens replaced because several of my old ones had fallen out when my two (indoor) cats sat on the window sill and leaned against the screens. Within two months of receiving the new screens, one of the downstairs screens popped out and my little cat fell out of the first floor window. This is a skittish indoor cat who had never been outside, and it took me close to an hour to coax him back inside. Because the only reason I had the screens replaced was to keep my cats from falling out of the window, and I now have zero confidence in the integrity of the screens, I rate this section as an: F
4) New toilet and light/fan in guest bathroom: A
5) My master bathroom was completely gutted. Out went the old bathtub and in came a beautiful shower stall with a bench, shelves and glass doors. It looks great and I love it. The painting and floor tiling were A. The toilet and light/fan: A. But now comes the part that has been gnawing at me from the start. I ordered a custom-made, "top of the line" vanity with a granite top. It was the most expensive piece of the whole renovation .About $3000 or > if memory serves. On the final day of the job, after Skip installed the sink, he told me that I "lost a drawer." Apparently the sink was too deep so there was no way to install the top drawer of the custom-made 3-drawer vanity that I ordered. And then while we were standing there in the bathroom reviewing the job, the wood plank that would have been the face of the top drawer fell onto the floor. As all of us girls know, the top drawer is the most important drawer of the vanity, and basically of any piece that has drawers. You wouldn't put your kitchen silverware in the 2nd drawer, would you? As much as I love my overall renovated bathroom, the missing top drawer on the vanity bugs the *&%# out of me each and every day. A big disappointment. And it is the missing drawer that brings down my overall ratings. I was going to keep this to myself and not post on Angie's list, but then this week, the toilet paper holder that was installed onto my custom-made vanity fell off.
Misc: There was a small problem with the plumbing of the new shower which leaked after its first use. Skip and the plumber came back the next day to fix it. No big whoop. Nobody's perfect. But they had to go through my closet to get to the leak, and the patch job on my closet wall was less than perfect. It is not in an area where any guest would notice it, but it bothers me because it was done in a hurry on the last day of the job and looks sloppy. It makes me feel badly because I know that is not how someone would repair it if it was in their own home.
