"Terrible. He broke a valve resulting in a flooded bathroom floor and left an open, leaking pipe that dripped into the basement through an open hole. My family is still without a toilet in that bathroom. The shower basin was the wrong size, so he was going to cut studs near electrical wiring to make it fit. I said that I wanted a Toto toilet. He bought a cheap brand for $150, a brand I have never heard of. We found the receipt in the bathroom. He had many reasons as to why he kept getting detained, one because he said he needed more money. The contract stated 50 percent at signing, another 25 percent upon completion of demo, and the final 25 percent on project completion. I paid him $4,550 on 12/4/2024, CASH. I paid another $1,500 on 12/21/2024 CASH, and $766 on 1/17/2025 CASH. He refused to work unless I paid him on 12/21/2024 because he said he had completed the bathroom demo, and according to the contract, $2,275 was required at completion of bathroom gutting, but the gutting was incomplete with mounds of insulation on the floor and the dumpster was still in our driveway. Even after I explained that the gutting was not complete until all debris was removed and the dumpster was gone, I still paid him, but I did this because he refused to work without this payment. When he began working again, contract specifications were not met. He continued not to show up for work, each time with an excuse, sick children, sick wife, car broke down, etc. I have never heard of a contractor who did not own a truck, but he did not. There were many warning signals, no business cards etc., but I gave him the benefit of the doubt because he had two young children. The contract was signed 12/4/2024 and I terminated his services on 2/11/2025, after 3 months without a toilet, shower, sink, etc. He was angry and threatened to sue me for breach of contract, but the more chances I gave him, the more I realized he had no clue what he was doing. Per your rating below, please clarify your scale, is 1 the best and 5 the worst? I can’t provide a rating with a clear understanding of your rating system. In the end, all he completed was the bathroom demolition. I can live with him keeping $1500 for that, even though it could have been done for much less. I would like a refund of $4,550 as he didn’t complete any work other than the demo and didn’t purchase materials that fit our bathroom requirements. Note: he is going to contest that he did spend money on supplies such as bathroom pipe pieces, toilet, shower enclosure, even though they were the wrong size. He took them from our work site. I pulled thousands of dollars from my retirement account, money that I believed would have resulted in a nice bathroom. My family has endured hardship without the bathroom, and I have been dealing with tremendous stress as a result. It is also taking me extra time to prepare this document for you, time that I need for more important priorities such as my health."

"John did a great job on my fence and worked with the weather to get it done in a timely manner. I am very pleased "

"These folks are top-notch. We used them for interior framing, insulation and they are adding porch roofs this spring. They are fair, timely and masterful in their trade. Call them!!!"

"I had an addition added to my house. The work was done with perfection. Mark and Scott were phenomenal. I could not ask for better and meticulous work. Very knowledgeable, pleasant, considerate, understanding, empathetic and kind. I was so stressed free that I did not have to worry about anything. I can keep going on how great they were. And No, I am not getting paid to say this. It is honestly true."

"Brian has done various projects for us. New Barn, Deck, Pool House, Changing room a Bathroom. We are currently in the process of building a new cottage with Brian. He is meticulous and does quality work. He is extremely knowledgeable about his profession and easy to work with. Personally I wouldn’t use anyone else for a project."

"Mark and his crew were great! They removed our 35+ year old board on board wooden fence along with digging out all the fence posts that were cemented in the ground. They hauled away all the old materials including the cement and posts. They replaced it with a new cedar fence. It was installed board by board not by panel to conform with the contour of the land. The new fence looks great. Mark & crew were very nice to work with, very polite and hard working. We are so pleased with the quality of the job and would hire them back to do other jobs."
