My usual handyman doesn't work on exterior doors, but recommended Savva Builders to me. It was a good recommendation: they had a plan both for installing the mail slot and for covering up the spot where the mailbox I was discarding had hung on my house; they were also prompt, courteous, and did a neat job. Would definitely use again.

It went very well and we are very happy with the results. If I was unhappy with the way something turned out it was changed with a smile. I was undecided about a paint color and they couldn't have been more patient and accommodating . It was a pleasure having Savva builders in our home.

Professional at first and after several questions be began to repeat himself over and over. My husband brought it to his attention and got aggravated that my husband kept repeating we already discussed that. Numberous times he kept noting that he only works on big money ($300,00+) jobs/properties and HE is voted #1 in Delco ( at least 8 times). To us that is VERY UNPROFESSIONAL and tooting his own horn!
We asked if he was interested in the job (full 2 story addition w/ 2 baths, porch, 2 bedrooms, large living room/ and full basement w/ staircase). We have had at least 5+ estimates totaling between $90k - $120k. Said yes and that he is busy with another renovation(going into detail and costing $300,000 (seriously who says that), until the 2nd or 3rd week of July but would probably be able to start before august and have the project completed within 2 to 3 months. Estimate was to be done by the end of the week. I called asking if he finished the estimate and when could we expect it. he said he was too busy and he would work on it and let us know. 3 weeks later still no call or email. My husband called 2 more times, and left a messages. Finally returned a response (through email) stating he would not accommodate such a project of little magnitude even though his estimate came in at over $150k. He was very bewideling and continued to speak down to us. To make matters worse, most of this happened via email! SERIOUSLY!! EXTREMELY UNPROFESSIONAL! I WOULD NOT RECOMMEND TO MY WORST ENEMY!
BE WARNED DONand quot;T WASTE YOUR TIME! SHOULD HAVE REALIZED WHEN HE STARTED TALKING HIMSELF UP!!!!!!

Totally satisfactory. Kerry Savva returned my initial call promptly. The work was weather-dependent, and he kept me informed about when it could happen. His employee did the work in two days and cleaned up meticulously afterward. Mr. Savva himself checked on his progress. The result is a huge improvement over what we had before.

When our storm door was damaged, we decided to replace it and the exterior back door as well on our 100+ year old multi-unit building. I used Angie's List because I wanted pre-screened, reliable professionals. And that's what I got. Savva Builders, LLC was responsive, courteous and professional. We ordered the (pre-hung) doors ourselves and didn't make allowances for the jamb to accommodate the new Anderson security screen door. So the threshold needed to be customized. (Wish I could show you photos of how nicely the doors were installed). The contractor, Kerry Savva finished the job in a timely fashion - trimmed, caulked and came back promptly (and politely) to make an adjustment when asked. He had help the first day but the sub got sick and Kerry stepped in promptly. I don't know if the sub would have completed the job as well. Thankfully it was Kerry that did the job!

They were prompt and cleaned up after themselves. They did everything right and were extremely nice to deal with.

Kerry arrived every day for a week and 5 days at 8 am on the dot in order to go over everything that was going to happen that specific day. It was comforting to know the step by step process so that we could really see the difference when we got home. I don't think he takes a break because he is always reachable. He returned every single email and every single phone call with minimal delay (usually within an hour or so). He gave us an allowance for the tile, toilet, vanity and faucet and gave us recommendations as to where to go but always assured us that we could go where ever we wanted. We took the time to hunt down specific materials that were important to us but he picked up what we needed him to pick up and he took care of everything else. He helped us with a lot of the suggestions and gave us lots of options. Bill, who works with him did a good bit of the physical work and we wouldn't change a thing. He was very good at what he did and he worked very well with Kerry regarding what was planned for the day.
I don't think I've had the opportunity to work with a contractor this reliable and good at what he does since leaving the south. He and Bill both were very courteous and I cannot express how great it was to come home and see that a LOT of work was done, there was progress, and yet the place was CLEAN! They cleaned up after themselves every single day. With 2 kids running around, that was such a blessing. Now the bathroom is complete and it is GORGEOUS!!!
Honestly, I was so lucky to find Savva Builders on Angie's List. They are the most professional, reliable and thorough company I have had the pleasure to hire for work on my home.

He was very highly rated on Angie's List and I used him. He was great and it went just so smooth. I thought the price was very reasonable and was expecting to pay more. They were very professional and explained the whole thing to me. He told me what he was going to do and why he needed to do it. It was great.

The contractor (Kerry Savva) was exceptionally curteous, prompt, respectful of property, and responsive frpm start to finish. It's quite amazing to me that texts and emails allowed sometimes up to 6 exchanges during the day - as the contractor responded to all questions throughout the process. After agreeing to statement of work, if any question arose during the work effort - Kerry was always open to adjust to improve any unexpected condition that arose during the work effort. Kerry always used and quot;best qualityand quot; materials and the performance of the workers during the effort was so exceptional that I actually gave one of them a large tip since it was so obvious the worker was a perfectionist.
.It's quite obvious from start to finish that this contractor cares about providing an experience the customer will be happy with.

This job involved tiling a master bath. It was started by another person who was not right for us. He had inappropriate behavior and after examining the first few tiles he was laying we determined that they were not evenly spaced. After some heated discussion he was fired and I was left with a floor ripped up, no tiling and a need to get it finished. I checked Angie's List and called another person who did not tile but highly recommended Kerry of Savva Builders. We called him and explained our situation and he was there that day to examine the floor.
He explained that the previous tiler had not used proper materials for that floor and that everyting would have to be ripped up and done again. He explained that the mastic on the floor was still wet, after five days, and that grout would not last on it and the tiles would and quot;float.and quot; We hired him, got new tile and in a happy moment of good fortune he had a break and was able to start the next day.
Kerry and his assistant, Bill, were courteous, extremely knowledgeable and always on time to the minute. Our bathroom is now beautiful and will be even more so after Kerry finishes things like painting, hanging mirrors and replacing light fixtures.
We have also contracted with him to do hardwood floors and painting throughout our entire house.
His prices are very reasonable, he is very helpful about what materials to use and where to get them and does what he promises to do. I would highly recommend him to anyone.

Mr. Kerry was a stickler for details, always 5-10minutes early and very fair in terms of pricing. The workspace was spotless every night when he left, and he left our major appliances connected until the very last minute so we were never without a sink, refrigerator, etc.

Savva showed up when he said he would, protected all rugs from the front door up through the work space and cleaned up each night before he left. The work was thorough and meticulous, and both my wife and I are pleased with how both rooms came out after the work was completed. Family that have seen the work are impressed with the results. I have referred him to several friends.

Savva Builders did excellent work on all aspects of the job. I was under a time crunch and Kerry responded quickly to my request for an estimate and gave me a fair price for the work. Kerry and a co-worker were professional, clean and respectful of my house and family. In addition, they did grade A work. Although I hired them to do general handyman style work, I would not hesitate to ask them to take on larger work such as remodels. I say this because of the attention to detail and building knowledge they demonstrated during the estimate and work. They were forced to run late on the 2nd day due to some impending storms and a delivery of material at another job; but he gave me as much advance notice as possible. I couldn't have asked them to do anything different.
