When the contractor called me back 1 week after me paying he stated he was backed up until October 2013 (over 60 days away). He stated the only way he could fit me in was to send 2 men at 2 hours each versus 1 man at 4 hours. This didn't make much sense if he was already over extended. I was very clear on what was needed: siding replaced on a 4sf. area that had recently received repair work, caulking around windows and under deck in back of house due to faulty work of a contractor, and the installation of an attic stairs kit. The attic hole already existed. The kit stated it took approximately 1 to 1.5 hours to install the kit. I provided the name of the kit so he could look up the information. I also needed a quote for having an under deck water prevention kit installed (kit that keeps water from dripping through the slacks of a deck down to a patio. When the 2 workers arrived, they were ill prepared. They did not have tools to install the attic stairs. They initially stated they did not have caulk. However one of the workers found a tube in his car. They were not familiar with under deck systems or quoting a price for that type work. The workers were VERY polite and professional but had absolutely no knowledge of what the job entailed nor did they have the necessary tools. They clearly stated they did not have wrenches or sockets to install the attic stairs kit. I was going to offer they use my tools, but they came back to me stating it would take longer than 2 hours for them to install the stairs however, they could come back and install the stairs for FULL PRICE (go figure...what a shocker). They also stated they could not caulk around the windows, that I should just replace the siding. The workers told me they were never given information on what the job entailed which was the reason for them not having the necessary tools. So basically it took them 4 man hours (2 hours per man) to caulk a 5 ft run, replace a 2ft X 2ft section of siding, and screw in a bracket. I would NEVER use this company again. I believe they solicit on Angie's list to increase their customer base, having absolutely no intention of truly fulfilling the promises they are making through their promotions. They get you to pay up front and when they arrive they tell you they can only complete your job if you reschedule at full price.

They are very close to me so I thought I'd give them a try as I was some what disappointed in the previous company as they did a great job cleaning but they had broken a few to many items. When I spoke to the lady at Marsh Creek Maids she was very nice, explained in detail what they do as far as cleaning. She listed all the items plus a few that I didn't have with my previous company. She gave me a price and we schuduled the cleaning around my time frame which was great! The cleaning day came and it all went down hill from there! They crew arrived, came in and introduced themselves. Once they got their things inside they we trying to decide who is going to do what. From their conversations one of the employees was new and being trained. I have no problem with that as that's the only way someone can learn. I was home the entire time while they were cleaning. I was working and letting them go about their business. While they were finishing my kitchen I ran upstairs to grab something quickly and notice my back stair case wasn't vacummed. I didn't say anything right away. I was going to see if they would do it on their own. As they were leaving the person who appeared to be a team leader said thank you and bye. I mentioned to him I didn't think the back stair case was vacuumed. He had them bring the vaccum back in and complete them. They never apologized for it which I thought was very unprofessional. Every other cleaning company has asked me to walk around and make sure everything was satisfactory. Nope.. Not them. After they left, my children came home and went up to their rooms. My 11 year old said he didn't think they even cleaned his room. (How many 11 year old would notice this!) I stopped working and went up stairs and around the rest of my house to really look at their work. I was so upset I was in tears! Half the carpets weren't vacummed. I dont' mean they missed the rooms I mean they must have stood in the middle of the room and vacuumed around them only to what they could reach. They didn't move chairs under desks or tables, There was a whole huge area in my bonus room that wasn't even touched! My kids could do a better job. My bathrooms had streaks on the mirrors and faucets. None of my chair rail was dusted. All my rugs were just thrown back in my kitchen, no where near where they were to begin with. They did not move anything on my kitchen counters and clean underneath. Dusting in my family room was almost as much of a joke. Under my coffee table was a basket... I moved it and it was obvious they just dusted around it. They dusted around everything, even picture frames! I made a call to the company to let them know how upset I was and the more I walked around the more upset I was. She called the crew to come back to fix things. By the time I was totally done walking around I told her not to send them. I didn't want them back in my house at that point. She said she would call them team back and tell them not to come back and I never heard from them again. They didn't even have the professionalism to call me back and try to work with me. Not that I would have allowed them to come back into my house but the effort wasn't even there. I am better off with my old company even though they broke a few things here and there. (BTW they always replaced anything broken!) "},"url":"https://www.angi.com/companylist/us/pa/uwchland/marsh-creek-maids-llc-reviews-354851.htm"},"position":10}]}

"We were in the process of renovating our apartment and needed to apply for permits from the government, which required an architect-signed design drawing. Anthony came highly recommended. He took the time to visit our apartment and carefully understand the challenges we faced in obtaining the permits. After thoroughly reviewing the space and listening to our renovation ideas, he assured us that the project would be straightforward for him and that he could provide an architectural drawing that would not only meet our needs but also ensure we could pass inspection without any issues. Despite the project being relatively small, Anthony was more than willing to take it on and offered a very reasonable fee for his services. We truly appreciate the time, care, and professionalism he brought to the table. We would highly recommend Anthony to anyone looking for an architect who is knowledgeable, approachable, and dedicated to delivering great work."

"Bad Experience. Bait and Switched us. Told us the no more than cost of our removal verbally and then said he needed $4k to do the design with us and get final firm contract after that. I told him I was skeptical giving him $4k and then have him come back with contract stating it would cost a big percent more. He assured me “he is not that kind of guy”. Then after the design and a smaller scope he wanted to charge us 30% more. Took our money and we now have to start over with a new contractor."

The cost to finish a basement is $18,400 for the average homeowner. However, this cost could be as little as $2,800 or as much as $34,500, depending on the basement size and the materials needed. If your basement is already outfitted with electrical and plumbing, expect the cost to fall on the lower end.
For example, the drywall cost for this project averages around $1,750, but other features, like hiring a plumber, cost between $45 and $200 per hour.
The cost of home remodeling is $50,000 for the average homeowner. However, this cost can range anywhere from $3,000 for a small projectto $170,000 for a whole home remodel. Factors like project size, location, and room type all affect your overall cost. For example, bedroom remodeling costs are one of the least expensive projects, costing about $1,500 to $5,500 per bedroom. However, a kitchen remodel has a significant cost range, totaling anywhere from $14,500 to over $70,000.
The cost to remodel a basement is between $12,100 and $33,400 for the average homeowner. The price you pay can be as little as $3,500 or as much as $50,200, depending on the size and condition of your basement and the type of remodel you're doing.
If you're doing a simple project like adding a home office to your basement, you can expect to pay anywhere from $500 to $3,000. However, if you're adding a bathroom, which is an extensive project, you can expect to pay between $6,600 to $16,500.

Although homeowners often use the terms basement remodeling and basement finishing interchangeably, they are quite different terms.
Finishing a basement is the process of taking a basement space that is not habitable and adding elements to make it usable. This includes adding plumbing, flooring, and insulation.
Remodeling a basement means taking an already existing finished basement and changing it, often by adding or removing walls, adding plumbing, or changing the existing flooring.
