"Hi, Thank you for taking the time to post a review! I appreciate that! Sorry, Angies List never alerted me to a new review, I never knew this was here til now. For others online to know, we did run in to a snag with a mirror my guy installed for them. The issue was resolved but not by Capmire Projects unfortunately. I wanted to be honest and fair to the homeowner on my response. But in the future we wont have any mirror issues again. I have had words with my crew that was involved, and we will not be having my main crews install mirrors anymore, we will have our glass company people do it. Unfortunately it will cost more, but will help eliminate any chances of a faulty install for our clients going forward. Thank you again!"

Cameron did a good job with a very difficult situation. He was very organized and calm and professional. His subcontractors did a good job; the new bathroom looks very sharp.
The difficulty that we encountered was that I ordered a Sterling Vikrell tub that was a complete tub and surround in 4 pieces that fit together - no grout, tile or caulk needed. It also had a 10 year warranty, so I thought, great idea! But after the tub was installed, while they were installing the surround, they discovered a crack in the surround. A closer look revealed a crack in the tub as well. So Build.com sent me a new tub. When it was delivered, I made the poor delivery guy wait while I ripped open the package and discovered that the new surround was cracked in the same place and the new tub was cracked in the same place. Time out! I changed course and ordered an Americast tub from a local retailer. And when the plumber opened it up, guess what! There was a huge bullet-sized hole in the tub. A new tub was sent out the next day and fortunately, it was OK. But this string of bad tubs cost me more money (I had to then to tiling on the walls) and strung out the timeline.
Cameron was able to re-shuffle scheduling to accommodate this situation and get back in the saddle as soon as possible.
Cameron's communication is good; he always responds to emails and phone calls. He did have a bit of trouble communicating with the electrical guy, who seemed to have no idea what he was supposed to be doing.
The only thing I would say that could have been improved would be to use the joint compound more sparingly.
"Thank you for the review!!! Its been so long and its so hard to get people to remember with their busy schedules. I really do appreciate you taking the time to let us know how we did. We are always here should you need us. Thank you again, and Happy Holidays and New Years!"
"What a nice review. Thank you! It was really a pleasure working for you. Your kitchen turned out great and I hope you are still loving it! Glad the electricians were able to make it out and finally get your pendants installed too. If you ever need anything, you know how to find me. Thanks again for everything and for being such a great client to work for. Take care, hope to hear from you again in the future. Cameron"
"Thank you! Hope to work with you again. It was a pleasure. Appreciate the review! Always here if you need us. Cameron"
Pros:
Overall, kitchen turned out well.
Price was reasonable compared to other bids we received.
During the remodel, PM was responsive by both phone and text.
Cleaning was included in their cost and the cleaning crew did an excellent job at the end of the work.
Cons:
House was treated like a work zone, not someone's home. The PM had to clean our bathroom a few times because he was embarrassed by the mess that was left (and it was indeed gross).
Electrical subs refused to keep doors shut in the house during hot summer days. My 1 YO daughter received numerous mosquito bites.
Workers left our back gate open one day and both of our Labs got out and into the neighborhood.
Continuously had to check up on their work. Found bad measurements, placement of cabinets, spotty paint jobs, etc throughout the job.
Warranty issues will be vigorously contested, if at all honored.
Lastly, some time after the initial work was complete, we noticed the bar top was unusually high. We did not notice this until many months after they were done once we purchased bar stools. It was a full 6 inches higher than standard. We contacted the owner who denied that bar tops had a standard height. Once we showed him and he admitted that indeed bar tops do have a standard height (he finally called it common, not standard), he then claimed that I had requested the unusual bar height verbally with both the PM (who is also his brother) and the carpenter (I had not requested anything like this), thus making it not a warranty issue. He also said we signed something saying we were 100% satisfied with the work they did (which I did indeed sign). I have gone through many remodels and have family in the business (interior designers and contractors) and to a man, they all said there is indeed a standard to bar heights just like with counter tops. A simple google search will show you that as well. But alas, he refused to agree that this was a mistake on their part, citing the agreement that I had signed.
After two months of emails back and forth, he finally agreed to partially cover the cost of lowering the bar height. It took another full month of emails back and forth to finally get the work done (we did cancel one of the days due to a sick baby).
"I must politely disagree with a lot of the content on this review. Although we do appreciate your comments. Take care."
Campire's crew, including the tile setters, painters, and carpenters, was fantastic. Their work was beautiful; their work ethic was efficient and considerate--I was truly impressed.
Southern Plumbing did the plumbing work: the shower pan was deemed "picture perfect" by the city inspector; the finish work done by this company was outstanding--they even saved me $200.00 by insisting that some truly upgraded products recommended by Kohler were not necessary.
Beau Chandler Co. did the electrical work---again outstanding--indeed going the extra mile to match all of the electrical covers in white.
Absolute Glass did the shower glass--another outstanding job--the guys were instructed to cut my water-damaged mirrors 2 inches on each side--but they milled the edges instead to extract the least amount of material and leave me with the most coverage possible.
The crews cleaned up each day--and involved as minimal disruption of our lives as possible.
Of course, we passed each of our city inspections without exception.
The final production is beautiful; I am VERY pleased. Cameron Capps estimated six weeks for the job---but they were essentially done in 3 1/2 weeks---except for the installation of the shower glass--which, of course, is tailor-made for the location.
The bid price for this project was not the cheapest---but the quality of work and the professionalism exhibited was worth any extra pennies. BTW--my actual cost was LESS than Cameron's bid!!
"Thank you for the great review!!! Also, thank you for being so wonderful to work with. Your bath truly turned out awesome. I loved all your selections and I hope you enjoy it for many years. Look forward to the next project with you! Thank you for your business! Cameron"
"Thank you for the review!"
-Southern Plumbing did the repiping. I appreciated the fact that they were willing to allow the drywall specialist to accompany him during the estimate informing him of the damage in the wall that would occur. That way I was able to get an estimate for the entire project. Team was very professional during the repiping process.
-Mario did most of the drywall repair and painting. He did an excellent job. Leo did a great job of coordinating and supervising the work. He was very helpful when I changed my mind about the paint color at the last minute.
-Installation of the granite by Granite Masers went very smoothly.
-When Chris with Southern Plumbing came back to install the new faucets after the countertop was installed, he found that one of the faucets I had ordered via the webwas defective. He laid out the options for me and helped me to decide the best action to take. I appreciate the fact that once he knew my wishes, he called his supervisor and Cameron to get the ball rolling. Cameron was able to find a replacement and the installation of both faucets was completed that same day. Everyone worked together to make it happen.
-In the middle of the project, we had a death in our extended family which necessitated attending the funeral out of town. Everyone worked with me to continue the work on the house and keep it safe while we were gone.
-Throughout the entire project, attention was paid to details. Everyone listened to my wants and needs.
"Thank you! Thank you! Thank you again!!!"
1. Shower conversion looks great and is exactly what we wanted. There was a little delay is receiving the tile ordered, but the end product was great. Robert, who installed the tile, was excellent and very receptive to requests. He was very good at problem solving issues. He could foresee problems with the tile layout as designed and problem-solve to my upmost satisfaction. He avoided a patch-work look on the shower bench and made it look great.
2. Workmanship on the guest bath and kitchen was superb! Minor issues I had were promptly addressed and fixed. Jose did a good job with the painting.
3. Cameron and Casey were very responsive to all my questions and concerns. No project like this ever goes without glitzes and they were good at problem-solving. I especially appreciate the promptness of Cameron in responding to a concern I had after I had signed off on everything.
"Thank you for posting a great review for us! It was really a pleasure working with you and we hope to do so again for your future projects! We were happy to come out and take care of any issues we needed to correct. Its just the right thing to do. We don't run away from our clients after we close. We like to keep you happy even when we are long gone. Thank you for your patience in our transition the last few weeks of your job. We are so happy that we were able to make your vision come to life. Thank you again for everything!"
"Wow, thanks guys for the review! We love to hear feedback so it is much appreciated. So happy to have worked with you all and that we were able to make you happy. Thank you so much for your business! It was a pleasure. Here should you need anything. Take care, hope to hear from you again! Cameron & Casey Capps"
I gave them an A on price not because they were the cheapest but all the bids were within about $300 so price became a non-issue for me. The bid was detailed and the final numbers, with changes etc., came in within a few hundred dollars. Actually a little less due to canceling some of the things in the initial bid. I received the refund check quickly too. Finally, I liked the idea of working with two young guys who happen to be brothers and came across as very conscientious about building their business.
The bathroom remodel was to convert an old bathroom into a handicapped shower/bathroom for my elderly parents. The end product not only addressed the safety needs but also created a beautiful bathroom that does not look like a handicapped bathroom at all. It is very modern, clean lines and safe.
I was going to use them for some additional work and received a bid but due to some of the changes I wanted, Casey asked me to get with Cameron about getting a new bid. Cameron said Casey had given me a bid and so it went?..Probably not a big enough job to be bothered with since the housing and renovation market is booming right now in Houston. That's fine but just wanted to have them tell me they weren't interested as opposed to the back and forth. Also had a couple of problems with trash pick up but it was ultimately resolved.
Their work is very good and the final outcome was very nice. I may still try to use them in the future but I do think they need more help.
"Thank you for the review!!! I just wanted you to know, we never said we didn't want the additional work. On the contrary, we did want to help you out. I would never tell a client we will get them a bid and then avoid them. On 12/8/14 I asked if you would like for me to come out I would, but I never got a response back, or I would have offered a bid for you with no problems. We enjoyed working for you, so there would be no reason for us not to want to work with you again. If we don't want the work or its not something we do, we will tell you I assure you. I don't know where the communication broke down on that, but I promise I will look in to it. If you would still like us to come and rebid for your work, please let us know and we will gladly come out. Sorry for any inconvenience. Thank you again for the work and taking the time to post a review for us!"
"Thank you for taking the time to post a review for us! We appreciate your business and hope to hear back from you one day. Have a great 2015!"
