the shower doors were slide doors should be hinged and the vanity was damaged. The sink holes for the faucet
were to be one unit and were cut for hot, cold and center. So nothing came out as ordered or planned.
The came to measure and changed things claiming they received a verbal okay but they never did. They originally
were to come 9/22 and I took a weeks vacation. Called me 9/18 and cancelled because the vanity wasn't coming in til 9/24 .
Couldn't re-arrange my vacation as it was to late of a notice and not that it mattered to them anyway.
Unfortunately, now we have 1/2 bathroom done and the other half wrong. Shelving and seat should have been advised
when planned with sizes known to sales people and planner.. And on top of all this they are annoyed with us....
Resolution to all this in unresolved right now. Now it comes down to changing and waiting and making more of a mess
and not really getting what I originally wanted. I should have left the bathroom the way it was and never went with
Kuhn....
"The work described was contracted in August, 2000. That was 15 years ago. We were never contacted in all of the 15 years of any problems, etc. Jeff Kuhn Owner"
from inside the house looking out it looked find. upon closer look, seams were a mess, some bricks were cut raged against house. The space between brick and house was only sealed on one corner. They used sand, which I later found out is not the best thing.
someone did come to try and clean up the cement in the seams, but really couldn't be done.
Kuhn is a construction company, which I understand does good work as a construction company. The only thing I used them for was for mason work, which was not done very well. The railing seems to be fine.
Our initial visit was in his office. He told us his designer Lynn would come over take measurement and give us a design that would be functionable and fit our budget which was about $45, 000
He said the way his payments are collected are done by stages of completed work. Unfortunately for the consumer you are shelling out a lot of money while the work is dragging. It took months just to decide on a plan for the kitchen. The designer wanted to change the configuration of our deck which would of raised our cost production. We were told the combined jobs would take a few months so by July 2010 it would be completed. We shook hands in February 2010.The job did not go as planned as they had to come back numerous times and fix plumbing and painting issues. We were told he didn't use sub contractors but it seems that's what he uses because we saw many different men.
They also damaged appliances and an outside walkway. I do have numerous photo's saved as the job progressed. It's been awhile now so every detail on what we went through are lost but overall I would not recommend them to anyone. Even today as I write this I am waiting to hear back from them because we have discovered a major leak under the kitchen sink. The leak is severe and because it's over a dry slab went unnoticed for a long time. Our water company had sent us a letter month's ago advising us that our water usage had almost doulbed. I have since gotten NARI involved to mediate this situation but we are still without a kithen sink two months later. They also used a bleach solution to cover a back outside wall which had mold on it and put new sheetrock over that. We didn't know at the time that it's not how it's done according to industry standards.
At the end of the Job while going throgh the final punch list I told jeff that there were a few cosmetic things we weren't happy about. We still owed a $1,000. He said he would try to fix it. We shook hands he left and he never came back again. he had then sent an email stating that we were very difficult to please and that we could keep the thousand dollars. We had and still have real issues with this company.
On the flip side, the workers on the job did nice work. They were respectful, professional and punctual. The layout and design of the project was done well. We would use their services again, if we didn't have to deal with the aggrivation of the salesmen.
We will use them again for sure
Work was timely and neatly. When finished it was hard to tell that they were even here. Everything was done as promised and all came out better than expected. Highly, highly recommend.
