Work was done on schedule and very carefully, cleanup inside and outside the house each day was thorough. And Mike was extremely helpful with his onsite estimate. AEC was the only estimator we talked to who told us about the ZAI Trust, which processes claims for residential asbestos insulation removal and re-insulating costs if material tests positive for their product. That's a big deal. Would recommend AEC services without hesitation.

We contracted with American Environmental to test for asbestos, remove some of the piping and a…read moreboiler that was being replaced. Their bid included three days to complete the project. We were assured that if the pipes were not wrapped with asbestos material that there would be a substantial reduction in the bid. However, we did not find out that they don't actually do asbestos testing until two days before the project was to start. Luckily, I was able to get the testing done the next day and sent them the results which showed we were negative for asbestos. Unfortunately, it turned out that our boiler still had some water in it and the workers had to pause while it drained. In spite of that, the project was still completed in less than three days, but American Environmental refused to provide the promised discount. In addition, there was piping to be removed which was marked with a magic marker by the supervisor. The markings were complicated to decipher but the supervisor in charge assured us he would be there to instruct the crew. He did not show up and has since denied that he said he would be there. The result was confusion among the workers as to which segments they needed to remove. We had to contact the contractor, who sent a boiler expert over to work with the crew. We have tried to resolve this issue with American Environmental, and obtain the promised cost reduction, but their responses were rude and intractable. I would not recommend them.

I hired R&J to replace a rotted sill plate and remove a portion of concrete walkway and door step…read more(which was trapping moisture against the front wall and rotting the exterior sill and joist). After removing the concrete, replacing the rotted wood, he built us a small deck area which gives us larger lateral space as a door step compared to the small concrete step. A marked improvement over just the moisture fix and rot repair. This was a pretty significant job and our home is very unique in structure which created many challenges. As a homeowner invested in a major renovation project, I had some pedantic requirements and Jorge was empathetic to all of them. The work was permitted and passed inspection with king county.

I had what I thought to be crumbling concrete siding also known as "Rock-Crete" in several areas outside my house. So many companies just told me "nope!" This is a new one for me as I've never worked with this. The painters who recently came out to paint my house wouldn't go anywhere near it. Within 10 seconds he pointed out that it was only a few layers of paint peeling back. He was kind about it, and wasn't upset that I had wasted his time. I will call him as soon as I have another project in his wheelhouse. Thanks Jorge!

I hired Adrian from The Largest Landscape & construction LLC. for a mudding/sheetrock and inside…read moreFrench drain jobs. Be careful. I learned the hard way that Adrian has selective hearing. Make sure to get everything in writing because Adrian forgets what was discussed. He then wants to do the "additional" work for extra $$ or, he threatens to just stop and walk away. First time I agreed, second time I told him to start walking. Adrian lies about his experience. After 6 hours on the job, he admits he has only done 1 other inside French drain. He has no clue what needs to be done. Neither does he know what a good mudding/sheetrock job is. To top it off, Adrian wrecked my black asphalt driveway that was sealed only 9 months ago. He dumped a pile of dirt on my property and dragged cement and mud that of course cannot be removed.

This was not an easy move at all -- they had to navigate it through a very narrow alleyway and carefully place it onto a gravel platform in our backyard, and they handled it like pros. They were friendly, super communicative, and very quick to reply throughout the entire process, which made everything so much easier. You could tell they knew exactly what they were doing, even with a challenging setup. I really appreciated how smooth and stress-free they made a tough job. Highly recommend Northwest Labor Industries if you need reliable, professional help with a difficult move.
