L-Lcustomtrim

Porch already had roof and cement floor. We purchased the windows, glass sliding door, and two ceiling fans to be installed. L-L installed bead board ceiling, sheetrock, two electrical outlets, insulation and siding and the items we purchased. The sliding door was already installed when I saw a large crack in the door frame that he had not seen. Regardless of how it got cracked or when, it is my mistake for not stopping the job and ordering another. (I thought it was too big to not have been seen.) He suggested the bead board ceiling and suggested various ways I could finish it - stain, paint. But staining was out of the question at the end of the job after I saw a large semi-circular black mark on the ceiling evidently scraped by the fan when testing it? The pine? wood on one side of one window wept before I got it painted. The contractor was not confident with installation of the sliding door and screen and offered work-arounds to make it work which was not acceptable, so he kept with it until a solution was found. During the remodel, he made comments many times about how the supplies cost was more than he anticipated. He cussed at and berated his helper. I stated from the start of the job that I would do the painting. I had no idea until the job was completed that "the painter has to do all the caulking." I asked how he intended to keep the bottom wood from rain/rot. He stated it was treated lumber and he would spray some foam. Very little foam was used. I think the porch should have been "wrapped" but I'm not certain. He reattached my existing gutters which leaked like crazy. I immediately removed them and had another company install brand new ones. This job was done January/February 2018. The floor still leaks to this day. We are now convinced water is seeping in from the cracked door frame (we have recaulked, recaulked and recaulked at floor level). We have ripped out the bottom sheetrock twice. We have now left the sheetrock open until we can buy another door and find someone else to repair this situation. Early on I spoke with him about it and he offered to come back, but I do not want him back. The positive things I can say is that he showed up every day and he did a great sheetrock job. I asked for it to have smooth seams and it did. I am torn about writing this review. He would be a good sheet-rocker. Not a porch remodeler. His specialty seems to be more of furniture building, closet builder, looking at his FaceBook page. There is an unauthorized photo of my ceiling posted (prior to the scrape) but it's okay. There are days I feel like ripping it all down.

unfinished cabinet glasses and almost physically damaged my wife due to michael forgot to secure the glass and while my wife opened the cabinet door ,the glass fell on her head. called him to come and secure the glasses with out charging him with causing damage to my wife ,he ignored my phone messages and never answered my calls. interior paint around the edges was not done and left trash and all debris were left on the floor all over the house.he promised to come back and clean up and he never did. All his employees are either under age kids or kids with no experience.

Never had a problem with Mike.  I think what is important is to have a clear understanding what his scope of work is.  Many times people just assume the scope with their contractor, which will create a problem.  Have an excellent relationship.

Mike was easy to work with and did what he said he would do. Always had good communication. I would hire him again.
