R.J. Loyd & Co. LLC

I have used them in the past, Bill Postlewait. They are honest and detailed. They cleaned up after themselves and they were nice to work with.

The work performed by Bill Postlewait of R.J. Loyd & Co., LLC is absolutely superior work from the beginning to the end. We hired Bill to design and remodel a portion of our unfinished basement into a useable family room. He not only designed a useable room, but he created a beautiful family space for us that we thoroughly enjoyed at Christmastime. We conferred with Bill at the beginning about our ideas for this room, and Bill worked with us to alter some of our ideas into a more useable space, including moving and hiding heating ducts and the gas line, creating two closets and a bar area, designing and creating decorative posts, and opening up the stairway so it creates a beautiful entry into the room. As the work progressed, we were extremely satisfied with his communication with us and the high quality of his work. He took great care to make the framing square so the walls would be level at the top and exactly perpendicular to any other lines. We found it fascinating to watch the progress of his careful work. He insulated all the outside walls and hid pipes for the installation of stereo components, including seven ceiling speakers. He installed cams for the lights after conferring with us about the type and location of the lights, all of which we are very pleased with now that the work is completed. He hired a cabinet specialist to help re-design some old cabinets that we wished to re-use along one wall, and he worked with us to find some Amish cabinet-makers to build the bar area cabinets to match our old cabinets. Bill installed the countertops that he helped us order, and he installed the sink (including plumbing work), microwave, and small refrigerator; all are working very well. Bill and the cabinet specialist designed some decorative posts to hide the two support posts, and these, along with a raised ceiling in one area, are perfect for highlighting an area for a game table. Bill used his special talents as a contractor to build two closets, one a walk-in and the other with two sliding doors; he installed shelving in both closets. All of the six doors in the room are balanced and work perfectly in the framing that he installed.  Bill is a master contractor and we have been extremely pleased with his superb work.

 

Other than the whole project including replacing the seawall and old dock taking pretty much the whole summer I am very pleased with the outcome, and look forward to enjoying it next summer with my friends and family.

Bill provides a good estimate of the costs and labor that will be required to finish the job in a meticulous and well done job.  He pays attention to the details and makes them right even if he has to redo something.  He has a good sense of what looks right and makes sure you approve before continuing his work.  We didn't find any problems with his work.
