Thank you for visiting with us here on Home Advisor as we have been on board since 2016 receiving leads they generate for us in exchange for our financial compensation of their services. It has been to our benefit financially as we have received many projects as a result of their lead generating services. We are a small business striving for more consistent work flow so we do our best to achieve good to excellent workmanship along with a high ethic of customer service to all our clients. It is unfortunate we have received 2 unfavorable reviews and we hope Home Advisor can help with resolving these issues. Our disputes have been overlooked so far, but I'll be happy to visit with any prospective clients regarding those reviews as many know there is more than just one side to the coin and I would rather resolve these issues behind the scenes instead of posting arguments in our defense through this review forum and just make it a "he said, she said" tacky online dispute with no resolution.

"We've been so impressed with James Garcia's craftsmanship and work ethic. He refinished our kitchen & master bath two years ago, and just completed a clean sweep of every door, cabinet, window sill, wood trim and baseboard in the house. Our house is 30 years old, but the woodwork looks brand new. James is polite and professional, and the pricing is fair. Highly recommended."

"Hired Jarrett to replace our old, worn out front entry door with a new one we recently purchased. The communication was great, as he came by to give us an estimate and we decided to schedule the work. He called the night before to confirm and arrived on time the next morning and got right to work. Even though it was a challenge, as our house has settled considerably, he handled it skillfully, made sure everything was good, cleaned up well and got the job completed, as promised. Would not hesitate to call him again, in the future, for more projects. A very positive experience. A++"
