"They delivered what they promised! Mark Walker, sale manager for The Home Depot and McCrea, worked very hard to get our 2 new Carrier units, even though equipment in short supply. The McCrea installation team got our new units up and running beautifully. We are grateful to the dedication, and hard working of every body involved to get the job done right."

"Watch ALL your contractors as to what they are doing, ask questions if need be. First Choice Plumbing & Remodeling were very patient with me and the process that I had to put up with Home Depot.. Home Depot came in around $1,900.00 to do the work from start to finish. Go with First Choice and you will never go wrong."

"A representative from Paramount Builders was walking our neighborhood and talked to my husband; shortly after, we met with Marvin, one of their marketing representatives. He thoroughly reviewed the company with us, what they do, Paramount's service and guarantees, pricing, and timelines. Marvin gave my husband and I time to talk it through before we decided to go with it - he was fantastic at explaining the company, the product, and the unique marketing system Paramount uses. The only downside to that experience was that it did take more than two hours, and my husband had to go to bed (he works an early shift.) The unique marketing: Paramount sends reps to a neighborhood to walk around and talk to homeowners with needs; they make appointments with homeowners, and then present the services, and give an estimate on the work. But here's the thing: they have a brilliant marketing system. The first home in the appointed coverage area that a) hires them for work and b) signs contract at that time gets a laaaarge discount on the price of the job. To get the discount, the homeowner agrees to put up a yard sign for Paramount Builders for 45 days; the homeowner agrees to write an HONEST review on Angie's List; and the homeowner is asked to take 'before' and 'after' pictures, and allow them to be used in marketing materials (with all identifying information removed). Because we took that deal, we saved hundreds. Now, I am perfectly aware of marketing tactics, how that approach could build pressure, and the fact that the company could be inflating prices to shine up the 'discount.' Happy to report, we found out that Paramount Builders guarantees the following: They build, buy, and purchase all needed materials (they measure your house and extrude gutters to fit) They prepare all materials ahead of time They do not use subcontractors - all crews are company employees So, yep, we did it. From the first person we talked to until the last, every person was kind, communicative, responsive, and happy to help. Everyone at Paramount Builders kept us up to date with every step of the process to pay for and install our new gutters - signing contracts, signing financing documents, setting the installation appointment, and getting the final 'we did the work' signoff from my husband (who was there when the gutters were installed). And the cooooooolest thing? The Paramount Team called before they came with an installation timeframe of 4 hours. They came within that timeframe. It took them AN HOUR AND A HALF to remove the old gutters, back bases, drainpipes, and clear the pipe extensions ... and to install the new back bases, gutters, drainpipes, and hook up the pipe extensions. And my husband said it was quiet - he didn't know the Paramount Team was done until they knocked on the door! So, summary: - Great marketing - Awesome company employees, all around - Dedicated employees, all around - Excellent customer service - Superb materials and equipments - SUPER quick installation - Is a wonderful company!!! TL;DR: Paramount Builders are awesome; if they come by your house, hear them out!"

"I was getting frustrated with local electricians and home renovators - just trying to get quotes was a nightmare of un-returned phone calls, missed appointments, and general disinterest. Then I contacted SciFiHomes. They immediately made an appointment to visit and see what was involved. They came exactly as promised, and in a few days provided a very detailed quote - far and away the most professional I have seen in 17 years in this area and over $100,000 in home renovation projects.
Even before the generator was in hand - I ordered it myself - Marshall and Tony came out to set the concrete pavers as the base for the unit. On January 4, they set the unit in place. On January 9 and 10, with propane plumbing completed and the power company scheduled to come to disconnect the mains power , they returned to do the electrical work.
The installation was done in an extremely meticulous and professional manner. The hardest part of the job, it turned out, was re-configuring the house's main panel as a sub-panel, as required by the electrical code. Our panel was disastrously crowded inside, the result of adding circuits piecemeal over the years. Marshall worked until 6 o'clock in the evening, shortening, re-routing, and otherwise cleaning up the panel. Among other things, he found one 220V breaker that had a stripped terminal, which could have resulted in a fire, or at least failure of the circuit, and replaced it with one from his stock. The finished job looks like a *real* electrician did it, which certainly was not the case before.
The external components went the same way. Marshall and Tony took unusual care to make sure the auto transfer switch was physically secure on our very old, out-of-square house. They used flexible conduit to route all the necessary connections between the generator and the ATS. They took special pains to secure wiring physically, even when it would not be seen, as a reliability measure.
SciFiHomes did all the necessary coordination with the propane supplier and electric utility, secured the electrical permit and scheduled the inspection. Everything went off like clockwork. When they finished the job yesterday, they made sure I knew how the generator would operate, and walked me through steps to be taken in case of any problems.
The only cost growth ($170) was due to changes we made after the original estimate and contract were prepared.
All in all, this was the best single experience we have had with a contractor in our 17 years here."

"The work crew (John Rector and his assistants, Brandon and Ibrahim), were excellent -- friendly, hard-working, conscientious, efficient, and ready to answer all questions. My only issue was that part of the work (peformed by a subcontractor to JES) left about an 8" X 8" hole in the wall in order to install an electrical cable. JES considers the repairs for this hole to be "cosmetic" and maintains that I'm responsible for the repairs. I respectfullly disagree and don't believe that the hole can be described as cosmetic. Otherwise, we had a good experience with JES."
