Hyp Renovations

Towards the end they didn't finish the job and we didn't give him the last $800. This guy, he didn't finish the job and he left with still all $800, he never answered the phone, he never came to finish the job, he never got his $800 but would have loved to pay him the $800 if they finish the job. They're not professionals. They did the real creepy crappy job on finishing up some of the tile work and then they'd left our mirror in the bathroom without fixing it. I would not use them again in the future.

Doug and his crew did a great job. They offered several very good suggestions on the work we wanted done that turned out to be fantastic - especially relating to the wainscotting. There were a few changes that needed to be made and he was very good about getting the work done. I even had a problem with some roofing/siding that was outside the work scope and he and his crew took the time to inspect the problem, provide me with a short-term solution and give me a ball park cost for repairs on a return trip. Our house had a number of challenges for them to work around but they did a very good job handling everything. I would recommend Doug to family and friends and am already planning on having them back for another project.

Overall went good. First time ever used contractor in the house.(first major renovation). First time gave anyone key to house besides family. Felt comfortable doing so with Doug. HYP also put support beams on basement ceiling to support the heavier floors above and moved my furniture as they did the job. Job went a little longer than originally thought, but weather with his other projects caused that to happen. I was not in a rush so ok with me. (It was raining non stop those few weeks )As far as satisfaction: good. It was a learning experience for me. Two wood planks have perfect circles filled in with wood putty that I notice when in room; I should have asked that planks be used that do not have that issue. (there was leftover wood).  When had walk thru with Doug, had minor issues with grout, which is normal. It sometimes cracks as it dries. He marked with red for worker to come back and fix. After they sealed floor, still see a little pink where the red marks were (outside pantry). Not hugely noticeable because I did not catch until few days later in sunlight. ( I did not mention to Doug after I found, because it is not that noticeable).  Overall, everyone was professional and friendly. I love my floors. Very easy to clean, which is good because I have cats and a dog. I would use HYP again for upstairs flooring when I am ready to do so.

I live in a condo complex and I’m one of the members of the association’s board.  So we have a lot of maintenance done.  The guy’s name is Doug Hyp.  He has provided a lot of services for us.  The guy who dealt with Doug told him that he was more than willing to give him a recommendation because he did excellent work.  I was involved with him as well but I’m in charge of landscaping and not maintenance.  He was prompt.  His employees that he brought with him were neat.  They did the job.  If there was a problem, they fixed it.  There was a leak in one of the corners in the gutters where they had joined, and so they came back and fixed it properly.  Everything he did was very neat, very timely and very efficiently.  He dealt well with the home owners.  If he made a mess, he cleaned up after himself.  He’s probably going to be back next year which means he is good.  He was very good and very efficient.  We will use his services again in the future.  He’s presently giving us a bid for next years work.  He was recommended to us and I personally checked up with references on Angie’s list.

Doug was really easy to work with. He came to the space for an initial consultation to meet with me and the salon owner. He was punctual and he had all of his tools for measuring etc. with him. He was imagininative and gave us some really good ideas not only regarding the construction but also on the actual design of the space. He gave us the estimate in a very timely matter and his prices were amazing. His custom work is absolutely beautiful. He is a true craftsman. The entire space was finished in under a month.
