MRD Inc

HIGHLY RECCOMEND MRD ( CHRIS ) TO ANYONE!!!!!!!! WE GAVE HIM KEYS TO THE HOUSE AND THEY WORKED WHILE WE WERE OUT EVERYDAY EVEN SATURDAYS!!! CHRIS HAD KEYS TO OUR HOUSE NOW HOW MANY PEOPLE WOULD GIVE THE KEYS TO STRANGERS??? WELL THEY ARE THAT TRUSTING AND WORTH EVERY PENNY, THEY WILL DOING WORK FOR US AGAIN AND AGAIN WE KEEP UPDATING OUR HOME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

They did an exceptional job.  From start to finish I was completely impressed with Chris.  They did a phenomenal job and in labor I paid less than $2000 to do the work.  They started approximately on January 23rd.  Chris is coming back in August to build me a bathroom down here and he's also going to close off my laundry room.  I spent less than $2000 in labor only and that has nothing to do with the materials.  I wanted to buy my own material because I wanted to get my gas free.

He did what he said he would do and did it to my specifications. He was on time for the estimate, and when he did the actual job.

I am sure I will have a lot more good things to write once I have him remodel the master bathroom, but I am very satisfied!

We decided to update and expand our small downstairs 1/2 bathroom and add a shower. We also wanted to gut our upstairs bathroom and expand into an adjacent closet and add a corner garden tub. Chris was very quick to respond to our initial request for estimated costs. He stopped by to get measurements and details for our projects. He provided a detailed proposal that would only fluctuate depending on the materials that we selected. Chris and his crew were punctual and kept us updated on the progress and informed us of any issues. Since the house is an old farmhouse built in the 1850's, I knew there would be some hidden surprises along the way. Chris was able to identify all electrical, framing, structural and plumbing problems and rectify accordingly. MRD transformed our 2 old, small, dingy, yellow, outdated bathrooms into 2 beautiful bathrooms that we are proud to let family and friends use.

overall experience was good.  the owner (chris gallagher) and his son made time, away from another job, to fit me in.  they were punctual and dilligent.  the work (overall) went well also.  the exterior aluminum trim for the door and the interior turned out nicely.  the steps that were installed look alot nicer and fuction much better as well. i will and would use them for future work in my home.   

MRD came a week or two prior, to give a free estimate on some moss build up I had on my roof.   Chris worked around my schedule and came in the evening to give an estimate.  He looked around and explained the work that should be done, in very specific details, which was appreciated.  My roof is very steep and I was concerned about a pressure washer damaging the shingles on my roof.  He explained that he'd need two people to do the job and that the pressure washer would be used on a very low setting.   When he came to perform the work, his crew came exactly when they said they would and cleaned the roof so well, it looks brand new.  MRD even pressure washed the siding and other build up, around the perimeter of my house.  The estimate was spot on and I felt that the work done warranted the cost.    Chis even called today to make sure the work done was to my satisfaction.  

dont recommend to anybody................ total  grade FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF

The crew arrived, moved the items that needed to be moved and began to tear out the damaged surfaces (damaged walls, wood and flooring) .

They put up new drywall (mold resistant) where necessary, and painted the remaining surfaces.

The last task was to pour the epoxy floor with the color I had picked ... they matched all the chosen colors exactly as I asked!

What a refreshingtly different experience!

We found Chris on Angie's List. He and Tim came in not only installed the breaker box but put in new switches, reviewed a couple switches and rehung the paneling over the box and swept the room they walked in.

These guys are prompt, dependable, courteous, they installed a vanity, toilet, locks molding, had a couple of minor hiccups, but they rectified them promptly. These guys are great guys and they are going to do a kitchen remodel for me.

The lead issue was a major concern for us. Of the various contractors, they were the only ones very familiar with guidelines and how to do it. Upstairs was sealed off and we lived downstairs for the duration (we have a 2 yrs old and I'm pregnant, so we were quite careful). Lead tests were all negative. My 2 year old had his lead test about 2-3 weeks after the job was finished, and his levels were totally normal (levels at which they cannot accurately detect). Our upstairs is completely different now. The floors have the original wood showing instead of tacky paint, the rooms are all painted in new colors, trim looks great, and the walls in our room make it look like a new house. Hanging the door was tricky given the uneven frame, but they work perfectly and look good. I will say there were minor mistakes made at various points along the way (some floor finish splashed on the bottom wall trim upstairs, a bit of wallpaper removed from tape where upstairs was sealed off) but these are very minor. We are extremely pleased with the results and will use them again in the future!

It went beautifully! What a difference. The room looks perfect with smooth walls in a great color. Chris did a great job of figuring out the window frames and trim. The house is quite old, and nothing is really square in the house, but you wouldn't know that by the finished look. They were so professional throughout the job, always on time, communicative, etc. We are now having MRD do more work, including taking paint off the upstairs floors in 3 bedrooms and the hallway. The paint has some lead in it, and MRD was the only company (of four we had look at them) that was trained and prepared to deal with lead paint in floors. They will also be remediating some lead paint in window frames in two bedrooms.

Overall, Chris did good work at a good price. The repairs and updating took about 2 1/2 days. Everything looks great now that it is finished. Chirs was always punctual and professional. We will be having Chris out to do more work in the future.

These guys are AMAZING!! not only did they call me back within a couple hours, they came the next day for my free estimate. They did excellent work, explained the rationale behind the work they were proposing, as I had previous estimates of $1000 for less work than they proposed. As a single woman, MRD definitely saved the day for me, and I will utilize them for all my future projects, and will be passing out their business card to all my friends and family.
