Walker General Contracting & Remodeling

We had some delay, first because I had to get approval from the HOA and then he had another job to finish. One of his carpenters also quit in the middle of the job with no notice, so it did take longer to finish than anticipated and some of the screens weren't installed to withstand winds and came down a short time after the job was completed. One call to Bernie and he was at my house to reinstall the screens correctly. He did the corrective work himself, quickly and at not additional charge, and everything has been fine since then. We love our screened-in patio and, when I have other work that needs to be done on the house, Bernie will be the first person that I call. The price above does not include the cost for the tile, which I purchased myself.

I chose another contractor because Mr. Walker twice did not show at the agreed upon times for the estimate.

Bernie Walker came out to our house, took measurements, made a few suggestions and then sent us an estimate within a couple of days. When we decided to use him as our contractor, his crew came right out and had the entire project done in 3 days. Everything was done professionally, timely and on budget - no surprises. The cover looks fabulous and we are exceptionally happy with the work. Bernie was a pleasure to work with and we would definitely use him again on future projects.

We met with Bernie who listened to our requests before the project began, offered suggestions and made sure that we understood what was happening along the way. Bernie arranged for a POD to store our furniture, had the dumpster delivered, and made sure the rest of the house was protected while the house was under construction. We were very pleased with the attention to detail that Bernie had with our house. There were minor things we didnt see when some of the painting was done, but due to Bernies experience, he noticed these things and had them fixed. We were most impressed with the carpentry--we got gorgeous baseboards that we werent expecting --Bernies level of quality was more than we had asked for. We loved working with Bernie and his team. We liked Bernies personal, no nonsense approach and appreciated his honesty, candor and work ethic.

There was some delay in initiating construction, but once started was completed within a reasonable time frame. Quality of construction was excellent, and I was impressed by Mr. Walker's cutting costs by using existing materials as much as possible.

My experience with Bernie Walker was excellent. Bernie is honest, reliable, dependable and did I mention honest? Bernie responded quickly to all our requests and was always available to discuss with us any concerns we might have, answering all our questions and responding to any special requests as quickly as possible. We really enjoyed working with Bernie and will contact Bernie for any future remodeling and/or construction projects.

Bernie did a very professional job, and has a great eye for detail. We are very happy with the porch. He and his guys did everything they said they would. We were really looking for a porch that would stand out, something special, and he delivered. We negotiated many of the details together, and the price for the additional work always seemed fair. The only frustration was that it took three times longer than originally estimated, but that was largely because of the rain, we had this done in the Spring of 2007, when Austin faced record rain and flooding.

The work was performed well and in a timely manner.

Mr. Walker was very easy going and efficient. He found someone who could use the materials from our old deck and they hauled it away which helped cut our costs. We didn't need the old deck so we were pleased with the savings and his quality of work. It was a good job and our new deck was great.
