This customer hired us to repair water damage in their home. We helped them take advantage of this opportunity to make some changes during the repair process. The owners chose to go back with hardwood flooring instead of carpet, and we also added crown molding that matched their mantel. The homeowners also wanted an epoxy coating on their garage floor, which we were able to provide in lieu of the carpet that had been in the garage previously. We are glad the homeowners are pleased with the finished product and we are happy that we could assist them in making their desired changes.

Response from NORDIC SERVICES INC
Nordic Services strives to provide as accurate a time schedule as possible at the onset of each restoration project. However, when performing any damage repair, there can be many delays such as hidden additional damage, engineering, county or city inspection delays, building code update requirements, homeowner material selection delays or changes, and homeowner change requests. In this particular case, we have unfortunately had all of the above listed delays; code related issues with the foundation, required engineering and subsequent redesign by homeowners, insurance company approvals of additional work, homeowner requested layout changes after work had begun, and changes in finish selections. All these delays have resulted in a longer than normal repair timeframe. Any time our customer requests a change, we provide them with a change order outlining the costs. The homeowner must then review and sign it before work can move forward. This is intended to ensure that all parties understand exactly what is to happen and what the cost will be. We strive to make it clear to our customers how time and cost will be affected by any changes. Our desire is to provide excellent service working with all of our customers. We communicate with this customer on a weekly basis to keep them appraised of the schedule and keep the job moving toward completion.

Went well, we didn't even have to move out because they were able to refinish the floors while we were out during the day and used a low volatile finish.
Description of Work: dishwasher drain hose leaked over a period of time, damaging wood floors in kitchen. Nordic was referred to me by my home owners insurance company USAA. Had to replace some oak which they sourced from a mill geographically close to the original mill so the grains would be similar. Lots of attention to detail, required refinishing the entire first floor to match the repair. Took several weeks because it was done in stages but they were able to let us continue using the kitchen.

We ended up using them because our insurance recommended. Our insurance took care of the cost. They were on time. They were very courteous. They did above and beyond, little extra tender loving care. They were great.

The contractor came in and did not do a lot of work. They never gave a contract to me and they sent a bill to the insurance company without letting me know.

Response from NORDIC SERVICES INC
The truth is Nordic Services, Inc did not perform any site work. Contrary to what is posted, the member did sign a contract and hired our company to perform the work. After reaching a negotiated cost with her Insurance Company, our workman was dispatched to begin the repairs. When he arrived he was turned away at the door by the customer who informed him she had decided to hire someone else. The customer had not informed our management of her decision and never offered an explanation. Numerous attempts were made to contact the customer and messages were left. She never returned our phone calls.

We would give Nordic Services an overall A- or B+ based on our experience with them. Most important to us was the quality of work which was good. Nordic Services and specificially the on-site construction crew and coordination by Gordon Martindale was outstanding. Gordon was attentive to details, creative and responsive to special requests when feasible, and worked with the subcontractors to deliver a high quality remodel.
Description of Work: After a significant fire that damaged roughly 60% of our 4-plex apartment house in 2010, Nordic Services bid on the rebuild/remodel job. The project spanned a little over 6 months, finishing in March 2011, which was reasonable given the amount of damage and some improvements which were incorporated during the build time. Because of the severity of the damage, the services that Nordic (and their subcontractors) performed spanned the entire spectrum of house construction, including rebuilding most of the roof/upper floor, all of the drywall, flooring, plumbing and appliance installation (heating, kitchen, bath, etc.). Because of the high quality of work completed by Gordon Martindale and his on-site team, we were pleased with the outcome. Working with the estimator, Dan Porter, was frustrating at times due to less-than-helpful communication. The construction process (following a fire) was new to us and Dan assumed we knew when and how the rebuilding process should flow, resulting in some delays, for example, when Dan assumed we should have known when to request utility service connections without telling us.

After it was determined that there was no mold in the area, they replaced the flooring & performed some ceiling work. In the beginning, the process was a bit slow but once they started working on it, everything worked out in a timely manner. They did a good job and the tenant seems to be happy with the end result. I'm satisfied with their service as well.
Description of Work: Replaced flooring in both bathrooms.

They worked to get things right. Some of their sub-contractors didn't complete work acceptably. They would leave holes in the walls. They were responsive and fixed any issues, but they could've been more careful with their sub-contractors.

Dan Porter was to do an estimate to restore the master bedroom and bath to it's previous condition (this estimate I would submit to the insurance) and an estimate to do additional upgrades. Five minutes after admitting that he'd never heard of paperless drywall, he told me I was illogical for using it on the bathroom ceiling. Ten minutes after saying he'd never heard of spray foam insulation for residential use, he was sure the NW Spray Foam Inc did not know what they were talking about for ventilation. It took Dan two weeks to develope an estimate -- very long for the circumstances. The insurance company indicated 3 days was normal. Every interaction with Dan Porter at Nordic was painful and insulting.
Description of Work: I contacted Nordic Services after heavy rains caused damage while my roof was being replaced. My master bedroom and master bathroom were soaked. Service Master was responsible for drying and demolition. Nordic would be responsible for putting in new drywall, flooring etc.

Because we had a trip planned for April, Nordic planned their schedule to complete the work while we were away. Because we have an alarm system, Supervisor Richard Hoxie came at the beginning and end of every day to disarm and rearm the system. The flooring company was unwilling to do this. An email came after the old floor was removed that the wood would have to run the opposite direction as the old floor, due to the placement of the floor joists and the nature of the new subflooring. Permission given, they completed the job on time. They had to remove the old floors and moldings from our dining room, living and sun room. Five, 800-pound radiators were removed and replaced. Quarter-round moldings were replaced and touched up with matching stain where 85 years of living had chipped and dented them. Two very minor problems were noted and addressed satisfactorily within 2 days. Tyler Alderson modified and installed a threshold at the kitchen doorway, and made new moldings to go around a small, intricately-shaped built-in support in the dining room. He left the stain for us to touch up other dings in the old, distressed moldings of the house. Everyone we dealt with, Marc Olds, estimator; Richard Hoxie, project manager; Tyler Alderson, project foreman; was attentive, responsive, personable and professional. The floors are beautiful.
Description of Work: Nordic provided general contracting for hardwood floor replacement. Our Christmas tree stand leaked and did substantial damage to our 85 year-old oak floor.

Our insurance company contacted Nordic to complete the repairs. They came with subcontractors from another floor company and I wish I could remember the window/glass company; they were superb. Aside from a slow resolution, the job was done to our complete satisfaction.
Description of Work: Restoration after an attempted breaking. A brick was thrown through a French window, 80 years old. The brick then bounced across our 80-year-old floor, gouging and scraping across the room. Nordic repaired the window, matching the color of the old finish perfectly, manufactured new mullions to match the damaged exactly. Their "artiste" Jerry Harnash filled the floor and somehow matched the quarter-saw oak pattern to perfection.
