When I was prepping my house for selling, during the inspection my chimney was flagged for…read moretuck-pointing. With my house being in the city, when getting bids, I tried to favor city businesses. All Brick was within my zip code so I gave them a call. Lucky for me, they not only were the best price, but were also available to complete the work before my closing date. Until the inspection and their bid, I honestly did not realize my chimney needed to be tuck pointed. They did a great job. I wish I had before pictures to show the difference, because it is amazing. The clean up of their work space was as if they were not even there. If you need a masterful tuck pointer, I recommend All Brick. Will I return? - I left STL, but if I were still in STL, I would use them again. When: November 7, 2020 Why: Chimney repair for house sale.

Great services, friendly Knowledgeable tuck pointers. Ask for Mike he has great pricing.read more

We had a great experience with Better Painting from start to finish. The initial meeting with…read moreAndrew was easy and ended with an estimate, so no waiting for days like other companies. He line itemed everything we requested and answered everything we asked. The price was very reasonable. Communication from him and the office for scheduling was great and responsive. They used an easy online system explaining the work and contract. Painters started just a couple weeks after we signed. It took several days to paint 6 rooms with a big basement including ceilings, trim, doors, and walls - it was a big job. They did minor patching with sand to match the original texture. Everything looks great, and I'm a discerning customer. No nickel and diming over small things. The workers were on time everyday and left by the work hours we requested (8am-5pm.) They were super friendly and happily addressed any small concerns we brought up. They explained the plan for the next day before they left so we could plan for locking up our cats. The team was quiet, polite, and never complained. Everything was cleaned up and put back together when they finished. We couldn't be happier and highly recommend them if you value a good team and ownership that stand behind their estimates and quality of work. The pictures show some of the work. The corner of the ceiling was damaged with big gaps between the walls. Not any more!

Spring 2025, Andrew (the owner) personally walked my property and videotaped our conversation as I…read moreshowed him exactly what needed to be repaired before painting. He was professional and personable, and I felt good about hiring him. Months later, his crew arrived seemingly unaware of the scope of the damage. They initially used materials riddled with large knots and cracks, had to redo the work, and when finished it looked great. I was satisfied. One year later, the siding is pulling away from the house and splitting. The work has failed. I have called, texted, left multiple voicemails, and sent Andrew photos of the damage -- always politely, never once raising my voice or making demands. Every message has been ignored. This is from a company whose website promises "satisfaction guaranteed." What disappoints me most isn't even the siding. It's this: a business owner who is warm and responsive when he wants your money, and then simply vanishes when something goes wrong. Andrew has the video of our original walkthrough. He knows what was agreed to. A simple phone call is all it would have taken to begin making this right. They say you never truly know a contractor until something goes wrong. Now I know. I'd encourage anyone considering this company to think carefully -- because the guarantee on his website is meaningless, and when you need him most, he won't pick up the phone.

Mike and the Rickard team were pros, especially with a complex and often changing kitchen…read morerenovation. His ability to custom build solutions when we ran into the "fun surprises" that come with a 100-year old house allowed us to get through what might have otherwise been major delays - like when we found out your ceiling is 3" off level one corner to the next, or when some of our cabinets kept coming in broken or ordered incorrectly from the designer... (PS - don't get your cabinets from Lowes / Masterbrand...) Overall - I'd definitely recommend Mike to anyone looking for kitchen, bath, or other house jobs - especially if some custom carpentry might be needed. Excellent communication, always showed up each morning, and he was always very respectful of our space while we worked from home some days and in the office some days through the months. We will be calling again next house project we have.

He responded promptly to my call and an appointment was set up timely. He was professional and attentive to my ideas while sharing his insights of different possibilities to maximize the small space and give my living room a new look. His attention to details and ability to customize two areas in my home are off the charts. Never imagined the pantry could be so big in such a small space. For the first time in 24 years, my pantry is neatly organized all because the creativity of Mike and Desmond. I'm truly astonished at the finished projects and would recommend Rickard Custom Remodeling for any home projects whether they are big or small. I promise you won't be disappointed with his pristine quality craftsmanship.

He even worked thru pouring rain because we needed the project done before the next day. His price for the project was very affordable and a hell of a bargain for the quality of work. If you want your project done right he is your man. The only regret I have is I can only give him 5 star. I will definitely be calling him back for anything that I need done.
