Get matched with top contractors in North Springfield, VA

"In November, we moved into our new home and wanted to convert two back bedrooms and an odd hallway into a master suite with his and hers walk-in closets. We turned to Monumental Contractors for the project and not only did they make my vision come to life, they were so easy to work with and so professional that it was a joy having them in the house everyday! We're already got a list of projects to bring them back for, when we're ready!"

"When we hired District Developers to paint the interior of our home 2 years ago, they were wonderful. Evelyn and Cristian Figueroa, the owners, were both on the job daily, both supervising their employees and working along with them. We hired them to paint the exterior of our home in July 2018. District Developers became very disorganized, and the 5 weeks it took to complete the job were extremely stressful and aggravating. The owners’ daily supervision of their employees had dwindled to only a couple of nonconsecutive days during the week, and only for less than an hour. When we wanted to discuss an issue with the owners, they promised to “be here the next day,” which never happened. When they did answer our questions, the explanations were often vague, and they never went into detail. Part of the job included power washing and repairing mortar/replacing any bricks on the house. They didn’t work smart re the power washing/scraping resulting in a big mess that took an extra day to clean. When repairing the chimney bricks, they caused cracks in the crown; they didn’t repair the cracks, and didn’t tell us of this issue. Heavy rains ensued after this, resulting in roof leaks. We know the leaks were not there previously, as we had our roofer repair all issues before the painting began. He also said there were absolutely no cracks in the aforesaid crown. So, now, this repair is an added expense. Another part of the job included repairing and staining the back fence. When I wanted a receipt for the new lumber for the fence repair, the owner simply said she didn’t know I wanted a receipt, didn’t have it, and “hoped I’d understand.” When they repaired/replaced any rotten lumber (which was done by the owner), he simply dropped the old nails all over the back driveway. This was discovered when another contractor tried to park his truck in the driveway. This caused more work having to clean up their mess, and hopefully, no one’s tire picked up a nail. After they started the job, we learned that they mislead us, and had subcontracted the job out to another painter. And, they gave the subcontractor little direction as to what we had discussed in the original contract. This company also offers a cleaning service, which we used for the last couple of years. Up until this summer, it worked out well. But, in July, it all fell apart. The owners left their 20 y/o and 15 y/o, alone and unsupervised in our home to clean. Our contractor was working in the house, and observed them eating/drinking soda in every room while cleaning. They were on their phones constantly. Their owner mother (who claimed she was here cleaning, but wasn’t), returned once during the afternoon to bring them lunch, then left. They were in our house for over 6 hours, and not every room was cleaned. We were beyond aggravated. Needless to say, we asked for our key, and will be looking for a new cleaning service. Do not employ District Developers. They are unprofessional and disorganized, and will leave you aggravated."
