"It went spectacularly well! Lori Parisi, the designer, met with us, listened to our needs, suggested certain closet organization configurations and gave us our choices for types of materials. She designed a plan which was in keeping with our needs and our pocketbook. The installer, Eric, came on time, worked conscientiously and efficiently and got it all done in a timely way with no problems. He cleaned up after his work, and was kind enough to cart away the old materials."

"We love our new closet!"

"JC Closets was quick to respond on my initial contact.  Javier came by to look at my closets, took measurements and asked for clarity on what I wanted.  He sent drawings and an estimate by email within a couple of days.  His quote was competitive and his reviews were favorable.  My husband and I are extremely satisified with the work which was completed on the agreed upon date.  The project was handled efficiently and professionally.

"We've been using Living Elegance for biweekly housecleaning for several months and are very pleased with the work they do. They are thorough, punctual, responsive, and look for ways to go above and beyond for their customers."

"Excellent work. We purchased natural cherry cabinets in shaker style, with the panels made of solid wood rather than veneer. That is more difficult work, as each panel has to be constructed from several planks. Moreover, the clear finish would leave any flaws more visible. Simply put, the doors are beautiful--flawless in both construction and finish. They are similar in quality to custom cherry furniture we own."

"They do an excellent job. They take care of my furniture and wrap everything up. They also take things apart and put them back together for me. They come on time and follow up with me.  I asked for the same guys the second time, because they did such a great job the first time. They also do storage and take care of my things.  There prices are competitive and they are very accommodating."

"I have been very happy with their services. They are very courteous, professional and fair . The job was done on time and the result was amazing To this date anybody that comes to my home, the first thing that gets the complement is the hardwood flooring. . I will defiantly hire them again for any future work or remodeling. I highly recommend them to other people as well. Thanks Zia from Herndon

"They were okay but I would not use them again.  They just seem to be unprepared.  They came, they did a good job on what they did but they didn't seem to have any spare parts because they did a little electrical work for me in replacing an existing ceiling fan in the bathroom.  They just didn't seem to be completely together as a company.  The guy did good work but it actually took two visits because he actually had to go get parts which seemed awfully normal kinds of things to me.  It seems like that would be the concepts you have in your truck.  It was literally just additional wiring and some other things but he had to actually go to get those things.  He didn't charge me any extra which was nice but they were a little --- there was a scent that they were not there professionally yet; they just didn't have their act together.  The work they did was good but not great.  I had them come out very quickly because I needed the vent done; it was a vent that went with my shower so my bathroom would steam badly, it just won't dissipate.  They came out pretty well and they were accommodating but they didn't seem very well prepared."

"They are awesome!  Arrived early and got right to work.  They did a great job and were careful with all items.  Would highly recommend them.

"We are very pleased with the result, the success of which is attributable to the following:

1) Willingness to go beyond. For example,
-Robert was the only bidder to offer a color consultation, which proved to be invaluable in the end  (see below)
-I returned home one day to find Robert and crew fixing a drywall patch that had been applied years prior, even though it was out of the scope of our agreement; he told me he couldn't bring himself to just paint over it without properly fixing it first
2) Experience.  Before our color consultation, we had a general idea of the color scheme we wanted for the house.  Thanks to Robert's experience, we were able to avoid making some disastrous color choices given that we had no idea how much seemingly minor differences in color shading could affect the final product.  Without Robert's input, there is no telling what our house would look like today.  I should also note that we reviewed our final color choices with 3 different interior designers, who all agreed that we have 'impeccable taste.'  (A complement we shamelessly accepted even though Robert was the catalyst)
3) Straightforwardness. Robert acted with our best interest in mind.  For example, although we selected a particular name brand paint, he suggested we use a more cost-effective (yet equal quality) brand for certain ceilings that did not require a unique color, even though doing so would add to his workload as he now had to deal with 2 suppliers
4) Work Ethic. Robert was the only bidder who actually paints in addition to managing his business; managers of the competing bidders would not actually be onsite, which made us wary of quality control. 

Before Robert's involvement, we only thought of painting as a means to refresh the house.  In fact, our house has been transformed, and we have Robert and Competitive Painters to thank.

Some of the areas for improvement include:
1) Estimate of paint - Robert overestimated on the number of gallons of paint required for the job, costing us hundreds of dollars in wasted money.
2) Quality control - Although Robert was on-site daily, he did not perform high quality control as we had expected.  His own personal work is great; however, some of his crew made a lot of paint drips, missed spots, were not careful when taking off and putting back blinds and closet racks, spilled food, etc.
3) Attention to detail - When the drywall repair was done, they forgot to paint several spots leaving white spots on some walls."
