"Val did an amazing job putting together an idea board and going through the purchasing process for a small cabin we renovated and use as a short term rental. She has access to a bunch of great light fixtures and products that I wouldn’t have been able to find on my own! I’m so grateful for her assistance and the cabin is a huge hit! Tons of five star reviews and not only did she help design the cabin, but she also assisted in the decorating process. I highly recommend Val!"

"Overall, the experience was okay.
Designer missed first appointment at my house (that we had scheduled over the phone), which was disappointing because I had taken off of work for that specific purpose. Called to find out where he was and said he said he didn't have the appointment in his calendar. Was accommodating in rescheduling appointment on a Saturday. Showed up, took measurements, and we discussed the layout of my kitchen, which to be fair, is very complicated given radiators, windows, doors, etc.. Design had good ideas and provided a starting point for me, but just didn't feel right.
After getting the quote for the renovation ($38,890), which I had to follow up to request that it be itemized, I determined that the prices were high. For instance, quote for install/sanding of hardwoods in kitchen/living room was more than double what I had it done for with a highly-rated Angie's list flooring provider. Cabinets were $19,510, and i felt like the kitchen was designed to sell the cabinets, which given that I had been clear up front about my firm budget of $30k, design could have been scaled down to minimize cabinetry and associated expenses. Other items in the scope of work were lumped together and not adequate broken down, so I could not see what the estimate per each individual labor item was.
Dwain, the owner, was responsive and did seem eager to do business with me. However, the pricing for the complete kitchen remodel was out of my range and the design just didn't click, so I ended up not going with them.

"The tile in the bathroom looks great... so far. Jose also replaced a kitchen sink faucet and connections. Because he was also handling the plumbing connections in the bathroom, this seemed like something that should be in his wheelhouse. Well, 3 months later the kitchen sink had a serious leak and I had to have everything don again, and he charged $300 to unhook the faucet and reinstall in and two hoses. I could have done this myself, but was not nearby to do so. I thought he had done a good job, but since such a simple repair was a total failure, now I have to wonder what other surprises might pop up in the quality of his work, which cost about $7k in labor alone. Not feeling confident at this moment."

"I got them from Angie's List. They were great to work with in terms of interaction, but they were a little bit slower than I wanted them to be. The delays seemed to be caused by no planning. But they got done by my ultimate due date. The work was great and everybody was great to work with. I would use them again as long as it was a small scale project."

David was on time and very professional. He spent an appropriate amount of time evaluating the 2 areas we had requested. He documented the inspection w/ photos, measurements, and sketches. He provided a verbal preliminary report and is to provide a written final report w/ specifications for the mods we are proposing. (Removing a wall upstairs and a post downstairs.) We were happy to hear that our mods were going to be less complicated than originally thought and consequently less expensive. We have the peace of mind that the proposed changes are structurally sound and will be done correctly.

"Carlos and his team communicated well with me from start to finish. They showed up on time and answered any questions I had. They kept the work area tidy and cleaned up along the way. Worksmanship was fantastic! Definitely will use them for every project I have and would recommend them to anyone! Thanks Carlos"

"Excellent! Lenny has done a number of projects for us including replacing all windows, sliding glass door and a whole kitchen remodel. He has a great vision, is innovative and uses high quality materials. He is an excellent craftsman who cares about his work and his client. And even as important to us, 100% trustworthy. We highly recommend him."

"One person spent the entire time on the second visit trying to hang the gutter in the rain.  Since this repair was done in the winter, I did not check it out until the Spring.  The gutter was not on the house.  I had to hire someone else off of Angie's list to fix this problem.  All of the closet doors, and the towel rack failed.  All of the closet doors were off their hinge within 3 months of the repair.  I have a big hole in the wall where they tried to hang the towel rack. The rack fell down when it was touched.  I was never able to hang a towel on it.  I hesitated to write a review, because they were very nice people, but the quality of their work isn't worth any deal they offer.
