I have an older house with the issues that come with age. The door repairs were complicated by a deck and other changes that had been made during the years. The threshold was rotted as well as the damage from the robbery. The door had an inch and a half gap at the bottom caused by a floor repair done by another company. I had been using a rolled up towel to prevent the winter winds and bugs from coming in. The cost to pull and replace the door our would have been more than I could have afforded. Andy assessed the situation and was able to engineer a repair to the threshold, door, and replace the screen door and close the gap at the bottom. He added a plate at the bottom of the old door to add additional security.
The repair exceeded all expectations and I was so pleased. What was old and broken is now secure and safe. Andy was professional, prompt, and went above and beyond in assuring the job was done well. Andy is skilled and committed to doing quality work. I highly recommend him for any contracting work. As a consumer, it is wonderful to have someone with his skills, integrity and commitment to quality work available when help is needed.
The work proceeded at a regular pace, even with weather constraints. I was so impressed with the work ethic shown by all. Andy closely supervised and inspected the work daily and participated himself in getting the job done. He was professional and very kind to me. At the end of each day, his men picked up any debris, racked the area, and left the area neat.
The wooden deck was originally built in the 70's and it had been unsafe for me for years due to popped up nails and rotten railings. The deck received further damage when a tree fell across it and on my house during a storm. Per my request, Andy pressure washed the deck, repaired the railings, replaced the lattice, replaced the steps and hand railings and water sealed all surfaces on the deck.. In addition , he pulled up many of the boards, replaced many of the rotten ones, and replaced the nails with screws the on all boards. I did not expect this, but the finished deck looked new again.
The inside AC cabinet had no ceiling and was an open hole that drew both hot an cold air from my home. Due to the existing duct work, the only access was from the hallway. He had about 2 feet on either side to work with and was able to get a ceiling over the closet. How he did it, in such a narrow working space I could not say, but when he was done, I had a ceiling. He told me it was not pretty and that bothered him more than it did me. He showed me two screws that he had started but could not tighten due to the narrow space and lack of a longer tool. It bothered him so much on the day I paid him, he brought the correct tool and was able to get both screws tightened. He wanted to make sure the ceiling was secure and safe before he left.
At the end of the job, I knew he had contributed his own lumber and done extra repairs and I wanted to pay him for the extra work and supplies he put into the job. He asked me only for the amount of the original bid. I could not have been more pleased with the quality of the work and Andy's professionalism. He is a perfectionist in the work he does and won't quit till he's satisfied the work was done well. I have and will continue to recommend him to anyone.
As a side note, I too requested a business card since several folks were interested in getting repairs done. He explained he never used a card. So, I created a simple card, and got his approval and corrections, and have passed them out to several friends.. If it generates business for him, I would be pleased.
"Thanks for the review, but I don't recall doing any work for you. I live in Waco and not Victoria. Thanks again."
But the water damaged wall was the only area of issue. The wall itself was seamless, and looked great. His workers matched the texture perfectly, but he rushed the final part, installing the trim.
The contract stated that i would provide the trim, and i did. I left two pieces of trim in the room, one that was cut close to the correct size, and one piece that was uncut. He chose the cut piece and installed it, but there was a noticeable half inch gap on each side of the trim. He did not take the time to insure a proper fit and finish and i have consequently removed this part of his work.
(It should be noted I negotiated a lower price for this room and the work for the wall, but i also agreed to do all painting. The lower negotiated price did not include any provision that would suggest he wasn't required to do the trim correctly and ensure a proper fit and finish. It is in part my fault for not checking this particular piece of work (He installed the trim about 5 mins before payment was exchanged), but i also had high expectations and no reason to expect otherwise, based on the quality of all the other work done.)
With that being said, he was very professional and worked with me on scheduling. Everything looks just like it should, but having the final part of the work done quickly and not correctly is a downer, however minor the issue was. But the overall quality of his work was excellent. I would definitely recommend Andy Perez to others.
