PDX Top Finishes LLC

The biggest con artist I've ever encountered, stay away. For the sake of saving money, some people may use contractors who are not licensed. He cannot and should not be believed because of the manipulation and lying he is doing. You want to practice thrifty spending. Not that would acknowledge that He is Licensed and Bonded. He is not licensed in either Washington or Oregon.

Terrible. I wanted a simple duct work done above my range for better ventilation. Not only was the boss Ralph persistent on getting the job started and rushing to get a bid in. His worker Nick dropped my microwave onto my range shatter the glass top and damaging my microwave. Then proceeded to negotiate with Ralph on how to replace the range and microwave. I was credited $500 for the range for which i had to shop for a replacement myself because he wanted to sell me a refurbished one at mark up and we would have to pay the difference. also a $200 of the invoice for inconvenience. For which I know was over charged in total. Parts did not cost that much, I was charged $120 to take the microwave down and $120 to put it back up, which I had to assist Nick with both times.. Microwave was refurbished, but has trouble with the fan if the microwave is running. Ralph was all apologies and what can we do to make it right. I feel swindled and will have trouble hiring any professionals in the future. Also the "duct work" Nick finished was not attached to any outside vent but is just pumping into my attic space. Which i specially told would not be the case. Overall unprofessional, DO NOT Hire this company. Watch a youtube video and do it yourself.

I highly recommend PDX Top Finishes! Their work is very solid and done thoroughly and well. The owner, Rafael, is very professional, honest, and trustworthy. Rafael worked very hard to fit us into their busy schedule and even finished the project ahead of time. We were very happy to find PDX Top Finishes on the Angi website. They were the first to quickly respond to my request and we were very happy to find this very capable company with amazing workers. They were able to tackle our project (that a few other companies said it was too major of a project to handle). PDX Top Finishes handled our project easily and went above and beyond.

It was excellent, I had no problem with them.

Excellent job top notch and would hire again

Firstly if you are looking at this review Rafael had his contractors license suspended on 2/19/21:the 2nd time in 2 years. He has 3 claims against him & soon to be 4. This can be found on the CCB website license # 224901 - This was not information provided to us when we asked Rafael to provide us with license, bonding & insurance. Rafael provided us with his insurance only without his CCB# so we had to research to find it. 12/18/20 we paid Rafael $22,600 since he said he could not begin until we paid the dues. 1/11/21 they started working & 2/17/21 we let them go due to lack of communication, failure to provide the proper documentations, negligence & the cleanliness. Even though we were charged $231.07 for "clean up", $190.15 for dumpster trailer & $481.23 for waste. I would go around & hammer down or pull up exposed nails or heavy duty staples. I had to wipe down our house, sweep & clean up every time they left. Rafael does not work with professional subcontractors. I overheard one of the subcontractors discussing his YouTube training with Rafael. He arrived without any supervision to put in our vinyl plank flooring & could not figure out how to install it. Luckily we told them to stop because it was also being laid over the top of nail heads & large pieces of debris. Rafael told us this would not effect the quality of the flooring.We have to have the drywall work done torn out & redone. They covered an electrical outlet & the drywall is bowing outwards which we will find out the problem once we remove the wall. Rafael charged us $2,993.95 for material costs. When you can obtain the materials at Home Depot for roughly $250. I only say this because I was able to find everything used at the local store. The materials listed are vapor barrier joint tape, tape, mud, vapor barrier, sanding blocks, floor self leveling, drywall, "plumbing materials", "framing materials", trash bags. Then there are additional charges for $9,753.95 for cabinets, backsplash, countertops, cabinets & delivery fee. All of which have not been nor will be delivered to us. Rafael refuses to provide us with material receipts or the invoice for the cabinets purchased for the project. The ZC company would not let us claim the cabinets without the invoice. After I spoke to the lawyer it is our right to know the cost of materials. Here we are 43 days later & we still have no kitchen. Rafael said this was because my husband pressured them into removing the kitchen. However on 1/18/21 Nick showed up saying he was there to demo the kitchen. Then he said he would be right back & called to tell us he wasn't returning because he had to go to a different job. We were not told prior to Nick telling us that the kitchen was being demoed yet. Then the next day Rafael & his team returned just like hey we are here to take the kitchen out. We wrongly thought things would start moving along quickly. However on 2/12/21 when the floors arrived they hadn’t even prepped the floors. Although the vinyl planks took a month to arrive the "Seasoned Wood Multi-Width Vinyl Plank Flooring" can be picked up today at the local store. We have not heard from Rafael since 2/24/2021 when he told us "it's obvious that you don't know anything about construction." "If you feel we didn't do a good job tell the contractors board & the judge.". He put forth no effort to make us satisfied customers I expect a proper job to be done when I am paying $9,000 for 10HR of labor for a 438SF demo job & shoddy drywall repairs. I wrote down the times that Rafael & his team came to work on our property. I am happy that I finally made the right decision to let the PDX top finishes go. My husband has been working to make up for the shoddy workmanship & he is doing a better job for someone who knows nothing about construction. Unfortunately after paying $22,600 we are waiting 2-4 weeks for a $506 refund. I am planning to file a complaint with the CCB, BBB, attorney general. All of which could be avoided if PDX Top Finishes just did what was right.

They were very professional and knew exactly what they were doing as far as the workers they paid alot of attention to detail as well as kept me in the loop as far as how that i wanted things to look would defintly use them again and would recomend them to anyone ralph and his crew were one of the best choices ive made since buying this house in portland

The work was great. When I met him to look the work they were very nice, friendly, and didn't hear any complaints from the customers.

Pdx top finishes did a wonderful job with our remodel. They suggested several different ideas to accommodate our wants and stay as close to budget as possible. Ralph was professional through the whole process as well as his crew. We were very impressed from the moment he got to our home and did an estimate. I highly recommend Ralph and pdx top finishes for any project!

Ralph and his team are true professionals. We needed a full interior remodel and him and his crew were the best decision I made. I had a strict budget and needed it done as fast as possible. Ralph took this into consideration and did everything he could to take this into account while also making sure that he wasnt cutting corners. I also felt safe and secure with the team as they were always professional, respectful, and communicative. The actual job done was amazing. I needed hole repairs, plumbing, electrical, cabinet/flooring removal and installation, painting, and window replacements. They got everything done! I believe I made the best decision by hiring PDX Top Finishes.
