"Thank you [Member Name Removed]! It was a pleasure to work in your home!"
It involved sheet- rocking , taping, new studs and braces, texturing the wall and framing in an open shelf.
As an added bonus, he is a delightful person, and has an amazing background in all kinds of construction and creative solutions. We will definitely be calling him for any future projects. We highly recommend him
On 1/31/2014, Charlie Riggs met with us to discuss what we wanted. He then sent us a written proposal, estimate and drawings. We signed a contract with Mr. Riggs on 2/13/2014. The bookshelves were installed on 3/14/2014, and are as near to perfect as possible. Mr. Riggs recommended Posten Painting, Inc., which we accepted and very pleased with the result, (another review).
.They cleaned up all areas they worked on and let me know at al times the progress on the job.
He is busy (because his work is so good) so get him scheduled as soon as you can as he is about 6-8 weeks out.
We will definitely use him again for further mill work and finish carpentry in the future.
For this job, Charlie ordered the window in advance ($200 over the cost of the work ).
At my request, Charlie contacted a plumber and was at the house with him while he (the plumber) moved the kitchen sink drain out of the way for where the new window would be installed. (That job was $235, billed by the plumber directly). Charlie also arranged with LaneCo, the wall cutting company, to come when he was available to install the window. I compensated Charlie for the time he spent doing these activities as they did require time.
Finally -- because the gas meter and regular were within 1 foot of the window edge, Charlie spoke with the window manufacturer and learned the details of how to 'flip' it, - moving the sashes and I don't know what else, so the window would open from the other side. This allowed us to use the window already purchased and to keep the window opening ~ 36and quot; from the gas meter, rather than 12and quot;.
When the wall was cut, Charlie arrived promptly following my phone call and framed in the window --- all he could do that afternoon, as the wall cutter was not out of the way until ~ 2:30 PM. The following day, when I was at work, Charlie completed all the trim around the window, inside and out, and as expected it all looks great. The actual window installation cost $385..... the remainder was for Charlie's time coordinating other activities that needed to be done.
I would definitely hire Charlie again.
