"If you want to work with someone condescending, rude, confrontational, unprofessional, and whose contractors workmanship is probably the worst I have ever encountered in my 30 years of working with contractors, THIS IS YOUR GUY. I can ramble on about the false promises, the horrible workmanship, the constant delays, the lack of communication, the rude and confrontational text messages. I guarantee Mr. Shank will in fact respond to this review and try to flip the script and blame it all on me somehow. He talks very poorly about all his customers well at least the ones he doesn't like. Not sure what that is based on although I do have some idea what is based on. But he never made anything explicit, so I can't make accusations that he is a racist. So I am definitely not saying he is a racist because he didn't do anything racist. But if he was a racist it would explain why he didn't give two poops about doing good work for multiple projects I provided him. I also have multiple properties and was hoping to make Mr. Shank a lifelong contractor. In a nutshell, he has done 2 projects for me at 2 properties. One was installing a threshold for a glass enclosed shower stall. His crappy sub contractor (they are not employees) despite him saying they are employees, did not install any grouting on the threshold. Fast forward 1 year, and mold is popping up all around the threshold. Rather than dealing with this individual, I hired another contractor to fix up his mess. Second job, and my second mistake, I hired him for a full scale home renovation for around 50K. That project was an absolute disaster. He took 3 months to do what he promised to me verbally would be a 3 week job. I don't really want to spend 1 hour writing down all the crap he did wrong. I'll try so sum up the highlights. Ripped out old flooring, promised to make new flooring level after installing new concrete by using lasers. New flooring is totally not level and as bumpy as walking on your local trail. The shoe moldings around the flooring look like a child installed them. I had to argue with him to get him to regrout the bathroom which was in his contract in the first place. I can go on and on. For sure if you are someone that Mr. Shank likes and match his criteria of what he likes, whatever that could be I have no idea definitely not race related. He may do a great job for you and that may explain the great reviews. I myself had a horrible experience with Mr. Shank and his group of sub contractors who just plain do terrible work. Ignore my review or take it seriously, frankly this guy will keep getting business cause he's a great salesman. Even has a LinkedIN profile to show how professional he is. Epic scammer and fraud. Stay away."

"Quick to reply, did a great job assembling furniture"

"Excellent communication and attention to detail. These two young men were flexible with dates/times for the work to be completed. They were very good about texting/calling to let me know they were enroute for both the estimate appointment and for the day the work was completed. I hired them to power wash a composite deck, wood railing, slate patio and vinyl siding. They were very respectful of the property and moved and replaced the furniture, decorative fixtures as well as the gas grill and smoker, something not all companies will do. Highly recommend and will look for more projects for them. Great job!"

"Used AnS in order to get our house ready to put on the market. That included painting / plastering / other smaller handiwork. They were very professional and completed the job with on time. Questions on choices and next steps were communicated quickly so as not to also disrupt the project timeline."

"If you’re lucky enough to hire Oscar and his crew at King General Contracting, consider your job handled—and handled with integrity, skill, and professionalism. From start to finish, he was honest, transparent, and incredibly hardworking. He shows up on time, sticks to the budget, and most importantly—does exactly what he says he will do, without shortcuts or surprises. The quality of his work? Exceptional. Every detail was done with care and craftsmanship. You can tell he takes real pride in doing the job right, not just fast. I will call Oscar and King General Contracting from now on. Highly, highly recommended."

"Professional, expert paintings, appeared on time. No complaints. Gate good advice on wiring home for wifi TV. "

"Craig’s landscaping is a top notch landscaping company. I have relatives who use them and have had excellent results so I decided to take a look for several projects I have around the house. I was pleasantly surprised at the capabilities and price. I have a 2 + acre property that needed extensive weeding, trimming, mulching and plant removal. The price quoted was very reasonable and the turn around time was even more of a surprise. The team arrived on time and went to work. I am typically hands on as projects take place but found I never once had to intervene. The team did a fabulous job in all facets of the project and accomplished all tasks in a professional and timely manner. The end result was 100% perfection. They took my landscape to the next level. I went one step further and hired them to cut and trim the yard. Again, perfection at all levels from cutting and trimming and the time it took to complete the tasks. I give them my highest recommendation."

"Jake was punctual and very professional. I have never had my house power washed before. He did an extraordinary job on the house, entrances, deck and garage all at a reasonable rate. I would definitely hire him again and encourage others to utilize his services. Great job!!"
