The kitchen ceiling fan was a bit troublesome, but that was no fault on Steve's part. The junction box was the culprit but Steve solved the problem. The pressure washing made the house sparkle and the stain on the deck has renewed the deck. Awesome job guys! Thank-you for your hard work.

Steve handled everything very professionally. He was easy to work with and very competent. During estimation he told us what he expected to have to do and how much he expected it to cost. He was upfront about his time table to be able to start. Once he started, the project flowed smoothly. He replaced the broken French drain that caused the moisture intrusion. Afterwards, he removed the moldy carpeting, tack strips, drywall, and studs. During the project, we asked him to upgrade the room from fluorescent to LED with a dimmer. He was upfront about the added cost. He cleaned the mold off the concrete, filled the cracks in the concrete and sealed it up. Then he replaced the studs and drywall and painted the whole room. He supervised the carpet installation at our request. What was once a molded bonus room is now a fully functional, comfortable, and beautiful homeschool room for our children. Thank you, Steve!!!

He was excellent I would give him five stars. He returned phone calls, he was prompt, courteous and professional. He worked everyday and kept us up to date and pays good attention to details. We are using him again for another project.

The bathroom floor isn't level. He tried 3 times with "self leveling cement" and couldn't get it right. For a remodel pro with 30 years experience, that's ridiculous. The rest of the project had it's problems but turned out Ok. I'll have somebody else come in and fix the floor. If they are able to pour a level floor on the first try, Ill come back and change this review to 2 stars. Steve is very personable, answers your questions, and explains what he's doing, but in the end, the result speaks for itself. The bathroom has a big bump in the middle of the floor.

I'm very surprised. I asked him if he wanted us to remove what was on the floor or go over top. The home owner told me to go over top of what was on the cement. He gave the okay to go forward and never asked me to correct the issue. We pride ourselves on making things right. Yet we can only know if the customer isn't happy with something if we are told. I can only say. At the time we moved forward because the home owner approved the repairs and told me he didn't want to spend more money to do the additional work. So that is what we did. Now because it did not turn out as he wished he want to place blame elsewhere. But refused to do what was recommended. It's hard to satisfy without communication. All we can work to do better with our part and the next home owner is more forthcoming...08/09/2021

Steve responded promptly to my request for Quote on work needed unlike several others I'd contacted. He came out and provided a Quote on everything asked for and gave me an good explanation on what the jobs would take and how he'd go about it. He quoted all jobs and gave me a schedule within a week of when he could come out and do everything. Steve was out as scheduled performed all the work (except the Deck which was scheduled for the next day) with no assistance needed from us and very professionally. The next day was washed out due to rain and as soon as we had a break in the weather Steve showed up again, went right to work and finished the last job once again better than we hoped we'd get. Steve is a Professional and does exactly what he says he'll do. We are very happy to find him and even happier about the work he did for us.

Steve did a fantastic job remodeling our master bath. From demo to completion took 3 weeks (M-F, from about 8 AM to 2 PM every day.) He showed up every single day on time except once for a family emergency, but he called and gave us notice, so no worries at all. He explained everything he was doing along the way, and had good advice on things like grout choices, finishes, etc. You get more than what you pay for with Steve. We've used several different companies and handymen for our house projects, but going forward we'll always call Steve first.

First, I received a call from "scuba Steve" asking if he could come several hours early. When he arrived, he appeared to immediately have a bad attitude. Still, I attempted to pleasantly interact with him to review the needed repairs. He began to tell me this would probably cost...were probably looking at...I then shared with him that I would have to have a written estimate at his convenience. This appeared to anger him, he stormed off, got in his van and left. No further contact, certainly, no written estimate. Very unprofessional.

The home owner showed me work on the roof and siding which I'm not qualified to do. I tried to explain to him that I was not the correct person to replace his roof and siding. But no matter how many times I stated such, he insisted that I send a quote. I feel bad I could not provide the services he wanted. I will take his comments with great reflection. All I can do is to attempt to be more clear in my explanation of the services I am well experienced in. I surly would not take on a project I could not professionally finish. I would like to add. I try to always be pleasant when talking to others. I can only hope to find the home owner understanding when I can't submit a bid for work I am not qualified to preform so I won't not get another review as this. I can see I failed in my efforts with this person. I will do my best to explain more clearly in the further to a home owner when I will not be submitting a quote because I am unable to take on any particular project.12/27/2020

Steve was excellent in his straight forward manner and honesty in evaluating the job and providing a quote. He showed up early every day he was scheduled to work and accomplished the work he said he would do. And he did an excellent job. I added more to the job as it went and Steve was fair and direct in how he could do it, fitting it into his work schedule and providing a fair quote. I've kept his business card in case I want any future remodeling or repair work done - a direct, honest, and competent contractor is hard to find.

Steve was easy to reach and replied the same day as my inquiry. After I gave an honest description of the job that I needed done, I received a verbal good faith estimate of the job. The next day Steve came to the home to see the project first hand and give a written quote. After looking at the job, Steve decided to pass. I believe that it was more than he desired to do and he realized that he underbid the job. I think we both ended up on the right side of things. He did not want the job and I did not feel confident either. I am now looking for another bid. I am sure that it will be more, but that is okay. A workman is worthy of his hire. I just hope to find someone that is priced fair that I feel comfortable with.

Thank you for the feed back. I did not feel the price the owner of the home was offering was fair. That is why I passed on the project. After seeing the project, and that I would need to remove the counter top and base cabinets and the person I spoke with wanted me to lower my price. I felt it was better to move on and not make a bid.06/09/2020

We knew we had a leak and other issues in our master bath shower. We thought possibly the tile/shower needed to be completely replaced. Called Steve to get an estimate to replace tile/shower. Turned out to be a faulty pipe that Steve replaced. Steve was easy to coordinate with, was here when he said he would be here, thorough and honest. Will definitely use him going forward for repairs and remodeling.

Steve was very punctual, 30 minutes early from when he said he would be here to start working. Always communicated his status updates or issues. He is very knowledgeable, confident and proud of his work. And I can see why... in one week he managed to transform our sad, pathetic, embarrassment of a shower area into a beautifully stunning shower area that we could finally be proud of. We can't thank Steve enough for his hard work and craftsmanship the quality is second to none!

We had a leak in the bathroom for which a previous gentleman came in tore off some of the tile and broke some of the drywall in order to see the pipes. Unfortunately the gentleman never came back nor did he finish the project. And we still had the leak. We had to cover the holes with plastic and tape in order to use the shower. What turned out to be a leak, ended up being an entire remodel of our bathroom tub walls.
