Get matched with top carpenters in Fairchilds, TX

"I engaged CFP Remodeling & Construction (out of Pearland) for landscaping services at my East End property, which included installing approximately 165 sq feet of St. Augustine sod. Shortly after installation, I observed that a significant portion of the sod was not healthy. I reached out to Jessenya Akerman at CFP Remodeling & Construction, who indicated they would inspect the issue. Despite several delays, Ms. Akerman suggested that increased watering might resolve the problem. After spending $90 on additional watering, the sod remained in poor condition. I contacted Ms. Akerman again; although assurances were made about revisiting, no follow-up occurred. Eventually, I received an email explaining that personal circumstances had caused the delays and promising efforts to rectify the situation. However, subsequent correspondence stated that the company considered the installation complete and did not plan further action. Based on my experience, I found communication inconsistent, scheduling unstructured, and customer service lacking in follow-through. Therefore, I am unable to recommend CFP Remodeling & Construction and would advise considering other reputable landscaping providers on the island for your home improvement needs."

"Outstanding job promptly done at a fair price"

"Excellent work, great pricing and also clean up before they go."

"Do not hire Jose Arredondo or Arredondo Welding. I hired him to install a security number pad to my iron gate. He asked that pay for the materials keypad upfront so he could install and asked that I Zelle the money to his wife account. Unfortunately, I did. It is now been almost 3 weeks - he has not done the work, has not returned the money, and he refuses to communicate with me or my contractor."

"What a great experience working with Brandon and Brent! From hanging my Christmas lights, mounting 2 TVs and installing a ceiling fan, the final products look perfect! I canâ t say thank you enough! They also made sure they kept my house clean in every room they went into, thatâ s a big deal for me! Highly recommended!!"

"Reliable Hurricane Solutions recently installed shutter panels on all the windows of my home. I am very satisfied with their work. The installation was professional and timely. The owner, Geremiah Roulston, took special care to insure that each panel was correctly aligned with the individual window; adding extra hardware, as needed, to secure a tight fit. The panels are of good quality, sturdy, yet light enough to handle easily; making hurricane protection simpler as well as secure. i would highly recommend this company for any shutter installation work you might need."

"FANTASTIC. They exceeded my expectations and offered to assist with other plans needed without my awareness. He worked tirelessly to complete the work even ahead of time. Great communication skills helped me understand what needed to be done. He took my ideas and turned them into a reality. I won’t hesitate to make him my First Call, whatever the Job might be. Very trustworthy."

"Dream Builders & Renovations did an exceptional job in regard to the addition they did to our home. We weren't sure what was the best option for us. We desired more space and contemplated moving. But in weighing all our options, we contacted Dream Builders for a consultation and determined that adding extra space to our home was the best option for us. Making that decision has increased the functionality of our home as well as increased the value. We were so impressed with Shane and his team, that we used Dream Builders & Renovations for a smaller outdoor project after the initial renovation that increased the comfort of our back patio. I can't say enough about Shane personally. He and his team did amazing work and have seemingly extended our time in our home. We are playing the long game in regard to our home and Dream Builders & Renovations has allowed our family the opportunity to do just that. We are grateful for Shane and his team. "

"If I could give zero stars, I would. We hired Mustang Fence through Angie’s List, and the entire experience has been a complete nightmare. They never finished the work, installed things incorrectly, and their communication was abysmal. Weeks would go by without a response. We called multiple times, set multiple appointments, and yet they showed up whenever they felt like it—completely ignoring scheduled times. They ripped out our old gate, left it on the property, and left holes in the wall unpatched. Screws were sticking out dangerously, and nothing felt secure. The keypad they installed never worked properly. The “0” button didn’t function, which left us locked out of our own property. For over a week, we couldn’t lock or close the gate, leaving our home exposed. Instead of fixing their defective installation, they tried to charge us an additional $750 for a worse replacement. On September 28, 2025, their manager Sam came onsite, saw firsthand that the keypad didn’t work, and admitted they weren’t “professionals” with that product. Yet he still tried to upcharge us $750 to downgrade to a basic lock. When we pressed him on why we should pay more for their own mistakes, his excuse was, “We wanted what the customer wanted.” That is not accountability. That is negligence. When asked politely to leave the property, Sam even stood in the gate to block entry. At one point, they installed a handle accessible only from the outside, leaving us forced to pry the gate open with our fingers from the inside, an outright hazard. For weeks, we waited for them to resolve these issues. Each time, they ignored scheduled appointments and came unannounced, at random times, with no respect for our time. Yes, the fence may look nice at first glance, but it is completely dysfunctional and unsafe. Mustang Fence is unprofessional, unreliable, and dishonest. They do shoddy work on their own terms, make excuses instead of taking responsibility, and treat paying customers with zero respect. This has been one of the worst contractor experiences of my life, and I strongly warn anyone: stay far away from Mustang Fence."

"Well, what can I say about Colony Builders? Well, this will be kind of long... but they get full marks from us. We were looking for an enclosed patio for our backyard that joins onto the house. Mainly due to the breaker box being outside and the royal pain of going outside in the pouring rain to flip the breakers every time the power goes off. We also wanted a nice place where we could make the area look nice with potted hanging plants and planter beds. We searched online at various sites including Amazon for what we wanted. The pricing of such a patio online was around the $5,000 range and the reviews were just awful due to the bad workmanship and lack of instructions, so it was there I decided to look up local building companies, and that's when Colony Builders popped onto my screen. We made an appointment online, and within a couple of days we were paid a visit by business owner Ali, who politely sat with us and from there we discussed our ideas of our vision of what we wanted. He worked with us and offered suggestions of his own for an enclosed patio. When we were done, he quoted the price, which was 4 times the amount of the shoddy kit patios we were researching earlier. Unfortunately it was out of our price range, so after he left, we thought about it for awhile before deciding we didn't need it enclosed. After contacting them again, Ali's nephew Mahdi came out to meet with us to discuss this different route. Mahdi is a born people-person and was wonderful to talk things through with. He was respectful and treated us like good friends instead of potential clients. He also understood perfectly of the changes we wanted and offered suggestions to help us save more money on the project. For instance, we have a concrete slab outside our back door. It is standard for townhomes in our area. We also wanted a tile floor on the patio which would be expensive. He offered the faux-tile stamping option, which was much cheaper. Basically stamping tile patterns into the freshly-laid concrete with different powdered colors to give the perfect illusion of tiles, which was perfect for us on a budget. From there we were certain we wanted to go ahead with the project. We decided on an open design patio on sturdy posts with a roof to match our existing roof tiles. All this on a new slab of concrete, much longer than the existing slab with a beautiful rustic mosaic tile-stamp pattern. They could even leave the existing slab in place. A deposit was asked upon agreement of a few thousand dollars up front. Our patio would cost $14,380 all up with no more to pay. Still more expensive than I would like but the craftmanship would be much better. They offer finance through Medallion which gave us the lowest interest rates, and we can even set up automatic payments online. We financed for 144 months to reduce the monthly payments but we have the option of paying more without penalties. Next step after our ideas were laid out was having the architect come over and draw up plans several days later. Madhi was also present for this. He literally was with us for every step of the way which was awesome. Plans were submitted to the HOA. Of course, they were rejected (I hate HOA's!). Apparently our HOA won't allow any structure to be built directly on to the house. So, ok. Mahdi came back over and we discussed further options for approval. The architect came out again... We planned it 3 feet from the wall instead, leaving a nice gap for the rain to fall through, but we'll figure something out later to stay dry. Also 4 posts instead of 2, as it was now free-standing. This time our second HOA rejection. We were getting frustrated at this point and were seriously thinking of scrapping the entire idea. The HOA's newest reason? The entire structure had to be at least 3 feet from the wall. Well, we thought it was! What they were talking about was the roof overhang, it would protrude closer than 3 feet to the wall. Once we redid the plans a 3rd time and kept the roof overhand 3 feet away from the wall, the project was finally approved. Within a few days the concrete guys came out to start the project, it was all happening now! They did a great job and had the slab laid within a day with the tile-stamp pattern already embossed into the concrete, it looked great! They also dug out the corners where the posts were to go, to 2 feet deep. They filled them with rebar and completely filled them with cement, these were for structural support to balance the posts. The second day, they power washed the new patio floor and weather-sealed it. Job done, and we were very happy with it. So were they, as they were often caught dancing away on our security cameras while they worked. They love their job also! A couple of days later, the framers arrived to start on the actual patio. Very quickly they put up our patio and roof tiles and did a great job. The posts themselves were fixed in place by hurricane straps, so it would withstand hurricane-force winds in a storm. The posts were sealed with James Hardy seal. Basically, the wood posts were encased in a super-strong material that protects it from the weather and rotting. It kind of resembles drywall, but much stronger. We were also told this in the planning stage, that we couldn't hang hooks or anything on it because it would crack the seal if we did. The builders would hang them for us using James Hardy nails and hardware. which they did with no worries. It turns out there was a slight miscommunication between us there. You can use normal screws in the wood after it has been sealed, it won't crack it, but can only use the James Hardy nails as they are stronger. They gave us some nails for future use if we want to add more hooks or a trellis. The builders did put a hole in our window screen, which we reported. Mahdi came out right away with a screen he had lying around the office to see if it would fit and replace the damaged one, which it didn't. A nice gesture. The next day the framers/builders finished the job and painted it to the colors of the house and it looked amazing! They also replaced our screen with a new one with no problems. Mahdi and Ali came out that day to see the final result and to make sure we were happy with it, which we were. Mahdi in particular was so helpful throughout this entire (ordeal) project, he was always there for questions and suggestions. He even showed us many ideas of designs for the patio and also the tile-stamp patterns. At no stage was there any doubt of where we all stood on the project, we were always on the same page at all times for every step of the way, and that was exactly what we needed, as this was our first real costly project, so many thanks to you Madhi, you made our life much easier! Your pleasant attitude, extreme patience and kind nature was so appreciated by us so much we can't express. Thank you to Ali too for making this project happen and for offering improvement suggestions along the way. To sum up, this was our first project and we are glad we chose Colony Builders, they work with you every step of the way and never once did they make us feel like they were pressuring us into "selling us something". I would highly recommend them for any project, they get top marks from us. By the way, they offer a 5 year warranty on the patio and base, then a 30 year manufacturers warranty on the roof. We can't argue with that, any hopefully will never need it. This patio is sturdy! Now, all we need is to find a good quality rain guard for the back door and breaker box... We will be using them again to build a small kitchen window box in the future, but that's another review for another day. Thanks again guys, you all did a great job! I have included some pictures of the finished patio, the progress with the concrete base, tile pattern and the color brand used."
