"Thank you! The pleasure was absolutely all ours! Keep us in mind for any future projects or if maybe any family or friends are in need. You guys were amazing to work for, thanks again for the fantastic review! Jason"
I have also used Explicit in the past. They Added a 25 x 25 ft extension to my house with a cathedral ceiling and a 20 x 20 deck off to one side and a full height basement underneath that was a bonus. This room is now the envy of all my friends and neighbors and has really added value to my house,anyone that had never seen the house before say they can't imagine the house without it It is truly a spectacular room .
They have replaced my roof , In 2012 when I had a house fire in my basement they were hired to do the restoration This included fire odor remediation, beam replacements, new boiler ,hot water heater ,well tank , water softener . They refinished the space better then it was before and created a beautiful man cave for me, they painted and even hung shelves for me and gave me pointers and worked around me when i decided to build a bar in one corner of the basement. They have also installed a bathroom for me Which has 2 entrances, one from the outside so it can be used by anyone using the swimming pool, this was Jason DeGroat's idea for cutting down wet traffic walking through the house to use the bathroom.Best idea ever . Their work is spot on and always professional and courteous. Any problems I had ,Jason always addressed them within a reasonable time and always called if he could not make it to an appointment and would reschedule with me.I would unhesitatingly recommend them to any one looking to have Quality work done to their home.
"Thank you [Member Name Removed]. The pleasure was all mine. I absolutely look forward to working together again if you ever are in need in the future. Best Jason"
SHORT STORY:
Those statements turned out to be false.
He did not pull the proper permits and the job took 3 months longer than it should have to get that corrected. Jason did not run this project like he should have causing timely delays, burst pipes, and due to his own mistakes cost overruns.
He obviously had another job that took priority over mine. Most of the days on this site we had only 1 guy working here if anyone at all. Guy would show up at 10 and leave at 3. There would be a flurry of workers and work for a week or two, then everything would drop off and we would sit and wait.
The final bill was a huge dispute. I was so frustrated with this job that I just wanted to get it over and done with.
LONG STORY:
Contract has everything in it. Start date supposed to be September. Work actually started end of October. Finish date was supposed to be December, it was done in April.
I told him he needed to start the job with all permits. He only pulled the building permit. Job has plumbing and electrical too. He submitted the wrong drawing for the framing so framing inspection fails. He does not resubmit the framing drawing to get reinspected for weeks. No work takes place, he goes on vacation. We have no laundry facilities, house is freezing. Two months after my initial concern with permits, he has plumber and electrician file the correct permits. I am being patient with the process and trying to give him the benefit of the doubt. He sends over 1 guy to do a bunch of little things. This one guy shows up at 10 and leaves at 3. He replaces soffets and leaves hand prints everywhere on white soffets. They are still there. Finally out of frustration I start pushing Jason hard in text messages. It becomes apparent that the flurry of work happens when he needs money. The first time it was for the first payment. The second time was for the half way payment. He installed the wrong door. He replaced it but complains about the cost of that door numerous times to me. We put the exact model of the door in the contract.
Final on the job is more than expected. He nickle and dimes me for work that should have been covered under the contract. An example is the siding. When his guys ripped the siding off of the back of the house, they took a little piece of siding off that was next to the kitchen window. I point it out that they did not replace that piece when they did the siding work. He charged me for a day's labor and the cost of replacing siding that they should have put on originally. This happens with quite a few things.
The final bill is intentionally inflated by him. He is trying to recover costs due to his mismanagement of the project. I agree to pay more to him than I should JUST TO BE FINISHED WITH THIS PROJECT. He nickle and dimes me for things that should have been covered.
The majority of their work is excellent quality. MAKE SURE YOU GET EVERY LITTLE SCREW IN THE CONTRACT. We wrote an addendum to the contract that he agreed to before starting the job and HE STILL BILLED ME EXTRA.
Good luck, I am sure they do excellent exteriors. I would not schedule a major renovation job with them.
