She deserves and A++. She came on time and did a thorough job. She made sure the place was spotless. The Big Deal covered 4 hours of work but she wasn’t quite done so she stayed a little longer to get everything completed. I would highly recommend her and we will use them again soon.

The job worked out really well. They were polite and professional. They did the job okay, although they did damage my countertop. I called them to tell them about it and to be careful next time. They offered to come out and see if there was something they could do which was very nice of her, but these type of countertops can’t be repaired. If they had just covered up the countertops, there wouldn’t have been any damage.

I contacted Levinson's Construction after purchasing their "Big Deal" $119.00 for up to 4 hours of wallpaper removal and wall resurfacing on April 15, 2012. I talked with April Levinson and she was very polite and professional. She told me that she was booked for the remainder of April and the entire month of May. She scheduled me for June 1, 2012. She explained that there would be two people removing the wallpaper for a time of 2 hours labor. Anything after that would be at a charge of $85.00 per hour. I was quite surprised at her outrageous cost of removing wallpaper and preparing the drywall and told her I would certainly not be adding additional hours to the "Big Deal". On June 1, 2012 at 9:00 am sharp two employee's arrived and set up quickly and efficienly (10 min). Their time began at precisely 9:10. They used two wallpaper steamers which, when plugged into our outlets, blew fuses twice. My husband finally gave them an extension cord and plugged one steamer into another circuit. The bathroom area was small but they only had time to remove the paper. The paper was removed along with the backing and no damage was done to the drywall. No wall resurfacing was done. They cleaned up everthing and vacuumed the area. They left precisely at 11:10 am. I was disappointed that no dry wall was resurfaced as was stated in the "Big Deal". They seemed to work at a reasonable pace but with two of them and it being such a small area, I felt I should have received what the Big Deal offered. I will not use them again as their hourly price seems to me to be absolutely outrageous for wall resurfacing. Other Big Deals I have purchased gave me a fair amount of work for the Deal. I have used roofers, plumbers and painter's deals and have been more than satisfied with the work done for the money. This Deal did not leave me feeling good about the amount of work done for the price.

They arrived as planned and any errands (to get paint, etc.) were done in an efficient manner. April and her crew assisted me with returning the funiture back to its original place as well. I will definately use Levinson's Construction again.
Description of Work: Contracted with April to paint my M-bedroom and guestroom, walls & ceilings. I gave her my paint color and she bought the paint which was a much better paint than i could have bought. While at the house she and her crew painted the ceilings in my kitchen and living room while waiting on the paint to dry in the bedrooms. This was a great use of their time as well as mine.

Due to the recommendations on Angies list, we waited 6 weeks to have this company perform the work. Two workers arrived at 10 am and worked (?) until 10 PM. To thier credit, April did write off 3 hours from the final bill. The two bedrooms were painted one color --ceilings and walls the same. They left a two inch unpainted swatch around the air vents, did not paint the closets (April said that we didn't ask for that), didn't paint the inside of the windows and did not paint the trim, even though they bought the paint for it. I should mention that one of the bedrooms was empty and the other had a bed that was moved to the center of the room. It took us two days to clean up from all the drywall dust and paint overblow. The results were FAR below the previous reviews.

It is very unfortunate that you feel this way. And I find it very confusing because.upon receiving you phone call with your concerns about the paint. We quickly responded that same afternoon and 5minutes before arriving to your home I received a call from you with an apology telling me that it was in fact the poor quality of the paint that you had selected. Complete customer satisfaction Is Always our goal. We will be more than happy to return and address any of these issues

April was simply the best! I had a great expereince with her and found her to be probably the most reliable and professional contractor I have worked with to date. She arrived on time, gave an appropriate estimate and got the job done quickly and per the estimate. Due to previous bad expereinces with contractors, I insisted that April come herself to do the job, which she did. She and her helper got straight to work stripping the wallpaper and took only 1 break for lunch- they worked the whole time. My bathroom now looks amazing; wallpaper gone, drywall repaired where needed, re-texturing and painting. All in 2 days. I would highly reccommend her.

As you might expect, these guys do a great job (since I have had them back, and will have them back again). But they have a great breadth of skills that go beyond the handyman stage of things. They have great ideas to be able to do things saving you money ... rather than taking the longer more expensive "replace things" route. Some things that I thought had to be replaced could actually be repaired. And their carpentry work saved me a bundle in the utility room, and in the dining room. April works at a "job price" or she will work at an hourly rate. And that hourly rate is only when they are actually working. So she doesn't charge for lunch time, or for her running to the local big-box store to get supplies. She is honest, forthcoming, and will save you money in the long run.
Description of Work: This review covers 4 days of work that April Levinson and her helpers have spent in my home: 2 days in January, and 2 days in April. They have removed wallpaper, taken off an entertainment system "stuck" to the wall, repaired drywall including matching finish, repaired a ceiling where it had leaked, put up new light fixture, replaced a broken ceiling fan with a new light fixture, retrofitted 10 kitchen cabinet openings with sliding shelves (purchased by me), totally refurbished the cabinet underneath my kitchen sink (looks like new when it started with a hole in the back of the cabinet), took apart and "remade" a huge pantry shelving unit to repurpose it for also storing mops and brooms, redesigned (and made) new decorative railings in my dining room to modernize the look, repaired exterior doors that had begun rotting (replacing the beginning rot, redoing weather stripping), repaired exterior porch columns that had begun wood rot (filled, shaped, sanded, and repainted) ... and they will be back to do more.

I originally contacted April Levinson when her company offered an Angie's List deal for 3 hours of sheetrock repair for $100 (purchased as a Christmas gift for my 84 year old father). Both of us were impressed with her and scheduled further work, which was done last weekend. She and her crew arrived right on time both days. She dispatched her crew to various preparation tasks while she went to purchase the required sheetrock and paint (we had already chosen a paint color and type from her previous recommendations). By the time she returned, the sheetrock patching was well under way. The crew took good care to cover and protect personal items. Her crew was very organized, efficient and personable. They performed a very thorough clean up before leaving. My father was very pleased with the quality of the work (as am I) and enjoyed their company during the process. April provided an original quote at the first inspection. Of course, as we emptied closets and moved furniture, we found additional sheetrock damage. She revised her quote each time a new issue was found and confirmed that we did want additional work before proceeding. She and her crew answered all of our questions and provided status updates as they worked. Overall, a very pleasant experience.
Description of Work: Work performed was scheduled for 2 days, over one weekend. The crew arrived both days at the expected time - very punctual. They were organized and methodical in performing the work. Services included - patch and repair interior sheetrock for damage caused by foundation shifting during drought and plumbing repairs previously performed, paint all interior walls and all ceilings. Everyone in her crew was very polite, professional and personable. They did a thorough clean up both days before leaving.

Angie and her associate Alex arrived on time and worked steadily for over 3 hours. They removed wallpaper and textured the walls from 2 sink sections of a Jack & Jill bathroom. They removed the light fixtures & large mirrors so that if I wanted to change out the mirrors at a future time the walls would already be textured. At the end of the project all the old wall paper was removed from the premises, the light fixtures replaced, the mirrors cleaned and everything left all cleaned up. They did a wonderful job and I would hire Angie again in a second. I would highly recommend Angie's company!!
Description of Work: Very old wall paper removed and walls textured to match texture on walls in the rest of the house.

I purchsed the $99 coupon for 4 hours of wallpaper removal. I spoke with April the owner to schedule the job; she was very nice and was able to work with my schedule. Rosa was on time and went quickly to work, the job was finished the same day with no extra charges necessary. The communication from both ladies was excellent. When Rosa came across an area with double paper, she called and let me know it might require more time. Luckily, it wasn't necessary and there was no extra charge even thought the coupon didn't include walls with double paper. The work area was left spotless! I wouldn't have known they were there expect for the missing wallpaper. I will definately use them in the future.

The wallpaper was very old. We attempted to remove it ourselves without destroying the drywall and could not so we called in professionals. April and her assistant worked long and hard to get the job done. They put down floor protection before they started and cleaned up and removed all the old wallpaper after they finished. My wife and I were very pleased with the quality of the work. I would definitely hire Levinson’s Construction again and highly recommend them.

Arrived a little later than expected toward the later part of the hour given for arrival. Looked over work and noted that the texture might be difficult to replicate completely, especially for laundry room wall as this is typically done by a messy, cumbersome machine. I asked about time for the job since there could be an overage with extra payment needed beyond Angie's List Deal amount. I was told the job would most likely not go over but would take the entire time period of 1.5 hours since there were 2 people on the job. Work started immediately after this discussion and plastic rolled out to protect kitchen from dust etc. After time was over inspected texture and work and looked good. Noted that I needed to wait for it to dry before painting but was happy with coverage. April mentioned during the work that she also does other work around the house and that an estimate could be given for painting or crown moulding etc which I took advantage of. I plan on asking her back for the crown moulding in a month and take her up on the estimate she provided. Happy with the work but even happier with her professionalism and nice demeanor.
Description of Work: Fixing holes and marks from light installation in drywall of kitchen ceiling and adjacent laundry room wall. Size to be fixed was about 6'X10' area of ceiling(not entire area but at least 6 different holes/areas) and 4'X3' area in laundry room wall. Both walls had different texturing that needed to be applied. Paint was done by myself as I had other touch up spots to do throughout the house.

April is real pleasure to work with. I bought the wallpaper removal coupon on Angie's list. The team showed up punctually on the day set. April gave me an overview of which work will be performed and also updated me on an hourly basis. She made me aware of areas that needed further repair and what can be done. The team made sure all cabinets were protected properly before starting the work and cleaned up very thoroughly after they were done. The work was performed diligently and I am happy with the result.

April and crew were on time. They did the requested work in a timely manner (about 8 hours). They cleaned up after the work was complete and did not leave a mess. One thing I would suggest to all subscribers is to get the exact work to be done in writing. For example, if you want a room painted, be sure to spell out that you want the walls, ceiling, and trim work done. If it is spelled out ahead of time, there will be no misunderstanding.
Description of Work: Due to foundation settling, our walls and ceiling needed dry wall work. Once the dry wall was done, the rooms needed painting. April's crew did the dry wall which now looks great. Her crew then painted the walls and ceiling in two room and the walls in the hallway.

I called April after purchasing the Angie's list coupon and she was very good to go ahead and book me for an available time to do the work - when she came that morning she told me about how long she thought it would take and we decided to go to finish the job rather than just utilizing the coupon. She was most fair in figuring her time to not just charge more. She helped me pick a great paint color and then went and got the paint for me and just did a complete job. Really Great!!! Will definitely use her again.
Description of Work: April and her crew took down the wallpaper on a staircase/entry way that had been on the wall over 25 years. They were very clean in what can be a very messy job. Then they retextured the wall - much better than the texture was in the beginning and helped me pick a paint color to blend in with the existing items in the house and got everything finished and put back the way it was before they left. Already planning to use them for more interior and possible exterior painting.

They didn't even charge me for the wood flooring because they totally botched that. The drywall is not as nearly as professional as I thought, you can tell where they did it. The paint doesn't match but also the texture doesn't match. I've had other people fix my drywall and didn't have a problem but these guys I feel like didn't know what they were doing. They were nice people though, they weren't jerks.

Dear Member. I explained that the only correct way to fix your floor was to replace those pieces. It was completely rotted already and I was only trying to help you out. I didn't charge you because it didn't meet my expectations either (there was only so much we can do when things are beyond repair) it needed to be replaced. As far as the drywall repair...I guarantee work to your satisfaction. If you later decided that you didn't like it, all you had to do is call and I would have been happy to come by and revise. As far as the paint not matching...It was the paint that you provided for us.

I contracted April after I purchased her Big Deal for drywall repair. She came out and looked at all the work we wanted done and set a date to do the work right on the spot. We had some fairly extensive ceiling drywall repair to be done as well as the walls. She described the work that they would do to repair and then paint the whole room. We picked out colors then and there. The day before the job, April gave us a reminder call. She and her crew showed up on time and got right to work. They ran into some unexpected damage and we were able to negotiate a fair price to include this work. We could have gone without it and stuck to the original estimate but it really needed to be done. While the drywall guy started on the repairs, they simultaneously started to prep the room for painting. They protected the furniture and the rest of the house as if it was their own. They did an excellent job on the repair and the painting and cleaned up everything before they left. I have already set a date to have them do some exterior painting for me. I will definitely be hiring them for my drywall and painting needs in the future.

She was great. She showed up when she said she would come out to do the estimate and finished the job ahead of schedule. She was very friendly and took up any project no matter if it was big or small. She breaks it off into manageable pieces. Her communication is superb. She lets you know what is happening at each step. The only drawback is that she doesn’t take credit card and she only takes check. She wasn’t the cheapest or the most expensive.
