Get matched with top sandblasting pros in Paddock Lake, WI

"In 2017, when I was looking to purchase a house in the Rockford area that was needing a full siding install I contacted GF Company in Belvidere. IL, who I found on Angie’s list and at that time GF Co had great reviews. Strangely enough these great reviews are no longer to be found on Angie’s List. It should also be noted there is a GF Siding in Cherry Valley. IL, this is Not the company that I did business with. Ariel Zmijewski (the owner) got me a quote quickly and I decided to purchase the house. A few months later in July 2017, I contacted Ariel again to discuss the finer points of the quote, the price was revised slightly and the Ariel mentioned that once a deposit was paid work could start 6-8 weeks later, but said the install would be finished before the cold weather arrived. I started creating a color layout and Ariel provided some feedback on what would work and not work. To this point I was very happy with progress. In September 2017 I paid a deposit of over $8k (about 44% of final price) and awaited updates for a start date. Nothing happened. In early March 2018 I contacted GF Co by phone stating that I had been very patient and they had had $8k as a deposit for the last 6 months and I had nothing to show for it. After a couple more calls and emails Ariel showed up with his foreman Mark and they said that work would start in the middle of the following week. Much to my surprise the work started on time. Over the course of the next 4 weeks Mark and his crew worked hard, only missing a few days due to bad weather, I even agreed to having some extra work done by the team, some wooden entrance steps that needed replacing for an additional $2.5k. By early May 2018 the job was finished the house looked great and I was very happy with the work and appearance and was getting compliments from neighbors too. The balance of owed of over $10k was paid with 48 hours of the work being finished. Again I was happy with work done, until… A few months after the install a TV cable box started having troubles. Cut a long story short the wall socket died because cable was suddenly defective, also the crew had moved the exterior cable input box and this didn’t help the issue. Comcast fixed it, but I now have an exterior cable showing and they had to drill through the siding. Then around Halloween 2018, less than six months after having the install completed, I noticed that a piece of siding (6ft approx.) had become detached underneath a window, trying to pop it back into place did not resolve the issue. After checking all the other exterior windows I noticed 1 other window was about to do the same thing. I called the GF Company main number and left a message with the receptionist for Ariel to contact me. No response. I called again a couple of times and left more messages still no response. In March 2019 siding problem under windows still Not fixed, I called GF Company again, no answer, and no voice mail. I called a couple more times on different days still no answer or voice mail. I then sent an email to the company and to my surprise I received a response from Ariel stating this was the first that he had heard of it. About a week later (3/26/19) he showed up at my house to view the problem. Ariel stated that he would get someone over to fix the problem, but would not give me a date or time. On 4/2/19 I emailed Ariel again asking for confirmation of a repair date ? Nothing but crickets… On 4/30/19, I sent another email to Ariel requesting that the repairs be completed before the end of May 2019, again no response. Quote / contract says: Customers will receive a Lifetime Warranty on Material and Workmanship Reported GF Company to Illinois BBB on 6/5/19."

"It was very good and he was very polite."

"Ben did a great job, was very clean, had AMAZING attention to detail, and my house looked amazing after he was done. He was very flexible with my busy schedule and always let me know when he was done for the day. He is a little more expensive than other painters but you get what you pay for. Glad I went with Ben."

"This is a rental property, and I found a few painters that would not do the work.  But not the AAABR Service Company.  They were quick with a response and came out to provide an estimate in a timely manner.  Since this was not our residence, we communicated via email or phone. After the job was done, I noticed the trim around the front door was not done.  I called and it was painted the next day! This company seems to aim to please. Since this company has many services, I will call them again.

"Great ! Very professional, thorough job and good price too. John and his crew could not have been more professional . We will call them again and will recommend to friends . Great communication and wonderful work ."

"Kyle did an excellent job repairing and replacing the grout and caulk on our screened-in deck. He worked hard and completed his task within a very reasonable timeframe. He charged a reasonable rate and did quality work. We would not hesitate to have him do more work in the future or to recommend him to friends."

"The service was just fine"

"Curt, the owner, was very friendly and professional and so were the 2 workers he sent to handle the job. Both workers were there on 1st day but 2nd day only one was here and the job was a bit sloppy and not professional looking. Curt agreed to come back and review the work and he agreed to fix the issues and redo some of the areas with sand texture. Anthony returned the following Friday and Saturday and completed the job to satisfaction. Also, originally Curt quoted that the sand texture would be sprayed and the start day was delayed because he couldn't find someone available to do the job. Finally he/we decided on rolling the sand texture on and therefore it's not as even as it could be."

"They did a nice, fast job, and I had no complaints. They did a great work."

"They did a great job. They were the best. They did everything carefully. It was a good experience. They provided a good service."
