Get matched with top outdoor kitchen pros in Kettering, OH

"Hidden fees, gimmicks and falsified labor Do not work with Tim at Tristate. He bid on a quote we requested through Angi. He disclosed his service fee and that he would have an hourly labor charge depending on the tech he sent. The day before the job, he said he was adding a second guy to get the work done "before the cold snap" -- no other reason was disclosed. The men started work around 9:30am. We have a Ring garage camera that records to the cloud, so it wasn't hard to review their arrival and start time. By 9:43am they left to go pick up a small can of exterior paint and a smaller can of stain. We live 5 minutes from Ace and 15 minutes from Home Depot. They were gone an HOUR and 26 minutes--which I am going to find out only AFTER the job is complete that I would be expected to pay almost $390 in LABOR for that 90 minute road trip for 2 tiny paint cans, as Tim charged $130 per person per hour even for this time in transit--which took far too long given our proximity to stores and "

"Good communications with Brian who did a great job repairing our front yard after we had some work done to repair a water line leak. Job was done well under the estimates had I received from other landscapers. "

"I consider it a lucky day when I found Easy Living Homes through your site. We were looking to build a bathroom addition with a sauna to our ranch home. It was a big project since we had to tie into our sewer by digging to the front of the home being on a slab. We got a reasonable price from them and after meeting with Nick (The Project Manager) we decided to move forward. Nick was so attentive to every question I had and would text me immediately if I texted him. It was great customer service to say the least. Our project started in the age of COVID-19 which was a challenge for Nick, but he never made it a challenge for us. He handled all the obstacles thrown at him. It was a long journey but now we have the bathroom/sauna of our dreams. His crew was always respectful and did great work. We paid for each part of the project as we went instead of paying all at once which I really liked since I had never met him or done a project of this scale. The price he quoted me never changed at all which I found impressive. We are so happy with Nick and the rest of Easy Living Homes that we are in the process of doing additional home renovations with them. We would not use anyone else!!"

"I hired this company in August of 2023 to do a substantial amount of exterior work to my home. The company came out on their first day with no materials and didn't even have a ladder. I supplied them with lumber that I had for an interior project to get started on the exterior work. From August until December the company drug their feet and it was like pulling teeth just to even get them out to the home to do work. They would come out for a day or two and then be MIA for several weeks not returning calls or texts. We literally had to go to the business and catch them there to even talk to them. They finally installed 8 windows and a French door and replaced some rotted osb along with putting some tyvek on the home. March 14th 2024 the home was hit by a tornado and suffered severe structural damage to where the remainder of the work could not be performed. I met with the shop owner Tom Hughes on March 18th 2024 in his show room on state route 41 and he agreed to cash me out for the remaining balance after labor and materials. Tom told me his bank would be issuing me a check for $6,217 and that it would be sent via mail. I have screenshot documentation from Tom's personal phone number with the refund amount. He also agreed to send me an itemized break down of all work and materials that were taken out of the original $13,000 that I had given him. It has been almost a month and Tom will not respond to my texts messages or my calls. I have went to his establishment in covington on state route 41 numerous times and the doors are always locked and he has recently covered all of his windows with black tarps. Do not ever give any business or establishment associated with Thomas Hughes any money. I have made a report with the BBB and reports with local authorities. If you have an ongoing contract with this man you may as well just hang it up because he will not finish your work or give you your money back for work not performed."
