J E Schuler Painting & Rnvtns

Description of Work: I am using Shuler Painting & Remodeling for painting, some renovations and roofing.

Description of Work: I have used Ed Schuler's company on many occasions to do work including drywall repair, plumbing repair, and a new roof. His team always cleans up, leaving no sign that they were ever there -- except that the problem was fixed. I highly recommend them.

Description of Work: I hired Ed Schuler for a variety of jobs. They were: repainting the exterior trim on my home, minor wood repairs to the house and a complete replacement of a side porch roof suitable to be able to walk on it and lastly a gutter replacement.. Ed is a general contractor and hires subs to do the actual work. As far as I know he has very few if any direct hires. I would rate the painting work as no better than C - fair. My primary purpose in getting the house repainted was to remove peeling paint and restore a better finish to the trim specifically around the windows. While I recognize this was a big job as the house was built in 1929 and had many layers of paint, I was not particularly satisfied with the work performed. Particularly in areas I pointed out as not being acceptable, I felt that there was only passing effort in trying to resolve my concerns. One specific example was that I instructed the painters not to paint the windows shut (as they had been for years). I had previously spent many hours unsticking the windows. On completion of the job, I found that in fact all windows were again painted shut. The minor carpentery work was done very well, I would rate this overall as an A. The individual doing the work discussed with me what he was going to do and in addition to completing those things we discussed, he found and fixed several other issues. The side porch roofing work was performed by a sub, Residential Roofing Services. While it took a while for them to get it scheduled, I was very impressed with the quaility of work performed and what I believe will be a permanant solution to a side porch leak problem I have been suffering with for several years. Jack walked me through each step and then did exactly what he described. I suspect the delay in getting to my job has a lot to do with the work Jack does. He does a very good job and no doubt is in demand. The gutter replacement went off exactly as planned. I would rate this work as an A. Overall, Ed Schuler is easy to deal with and seems to do a good job coordinating various crafts. He was responsive to me when I called and I think genuinely wanted to do the best job. I wonder how much real control he has over some of his subs.

Description of Work: I used J E Schuler Painting & Renovations to re-jib our door.

Description of Work: Painted porch ceiling and trim and front door. I have an older house and some of the 6 wooden pillars on the porch were starting to rot. I couldn't afford to replace all 6 for $1,800 a pop so Mr. Shuler gave me a temporary solution until I could afford to replace them which was to bond the gaps and paint over. It looks nice. My one complaint is that when they painted my front door they missed some spots and said the paint would dry in 2 hours. It was still tacky after over 24 and even after coming back a second time to put touch ups on the door they still missed some.

Description of Work: I hired this company to remove the carpet in the foyer and refinish the hard- wood floors. They also framed two doorways.
