"Margaret made custom curtains for 2 bedrooms, custom shades for the same 2 bedrooms, & custom shades for 2 large picture windows (living room & dining room). Margaret installed all of these shades & curtains. Her prices are better than her competitors. I like her fabrics better than her competitor. Her work is impeccable. (She is more of a perfectionist than I am.) She is reliable, honest, timely, & pleasant."
"Cory is great and a reliable worker. We have a bathroom that needed some update and he installed the floor, a new window, new toilet, new vanity light, new sink top and hardware, and painted the sink vanity. At the end of the project there were a few finishing details that needed some adjustments which they came back to do it. We are happy with the end result of our bathroom and would recommend his service."
"The windows were manufactured earlier than we expected and we were promptly contacted about installation. Although we were told the installation was scheduled for two days, the four man crew that arrived was able to finish in a single day! Each window was installed with the same consistency in quality and efficiency. Furthermore, the crew did an excellent job protecting our floors and furnishings in every room. When it comes to evaluating the installation crew, we couldn't be happier. Regarding price, we probably paid more than we should, but that's on us. We advise getting several other quotes first and then get Castle's quote. This will definitely help in your negotiating. The windows have definitely helped to eliminate draftiness in our home and helped to maintain a consistent temperature."
"It went extremely well. Luna Roofing and Siding is a very good company and does excellent work. They are very clean and professional. I highly recommend."
"The man I talked to was very professional and timely. However, he explained that this particular job was beyond the scope of what their company does. I would certainly use them on another 'issue'. "
"Very well, once the contract was signed. There were some initial communications issues but it all turned out well in the end. I will happily re-evaluate this company next Sprin after we re-open the house for the summer... and find no evidence of the previous leak. "
So glad I found Curtis Minor. He was responsive, professional, respectful, and did a beautiful job with the flooring needed under the banister spindles in the living room. Curtis also kept to the schedule, got the job done in a timely way, and cleaned up after the job. I plan to use him again.
