This was EASY work. Tell the truth! I have my own electrician and painter so no add-on's or kick backs for referrals. THATS why this was low priority. This man is cherry picking the jobs he will even write estimates on, at the expense of peoples time. That is unethical. The poor perception was well earned. The disappearance is fact. Nevertheless, yes I've got this. And good luck with your career beloved.

His team of guys were on time and came ready for the unknown things as well. Bayram takes a lot of pride in making sure a job is well done and he knew what to expect and yes he was right. The job is done and it is beautiful and we could not be more happy. Looking forward to our next job we want to have done. His teams work together well to make it right. You cannot go wrong with Forte Concstruction. I know we didn't. Thanks Bayram and all involved in this project. Patty and Edgar

They were recommended to us by a local realtor. Joshua and Yesenia were professional from the start. They scheduled the work, gathered a crew, and promptly began restoration work. New kitchen (cabinets and island), new LVP flooring, recessed lights and whole house paint. Quality work and at a fair cost. We've encounter a recent home issue that needs repairing. It's J&Y to the rescue.

This review is of my second experience with J&Y Painting, and after this experience I would advise…read moreagainst trying to work with this business. The first time I used them, they came to paint some interior railings, and did a fantastic job, even if they were hard to get a hold of initially. A few weeks later, I contacted them again to come out and do an estimate for me on a good deal of exterior painting and repairs. The estimate was scheduled for Tuesday afternoon. The day of, the time span they gave came and went, and no one showed up. I called half an hour past the time frame, and was told that they had no idea where he was, and that they would text me. They texted a while later saying that he wasn't able to make it, and asked to reschedule for Wednesday. I agreed, understanding that these things happen. On Wednesday, I received a text an hour before the allotted time saying that something came up, and that he needed to reschedule for Thursday at the same time. I had a conflict, and asked for either Friday or just to text them pictures of the work to try and do a virtual estimate. They asked for pictures, and I sent several, with detailed instructions for each. I didn't hear anything for the next nine hours, and received a text late at night saying that Friday would be better. That brings us to today, where again no one showed up during the scheduled appointment time, and where again I had to reach out and find that they, again, did not know where he was. I told them there was no need for a fourth rescheduling. If you can get this team to come out and actually do the work, they will probably do a fine job. However, be warned - you might never get to see that for yourself if they treat you they way they have treated me.

Not a fan at all. My…read morebasement had flooding issues and when I tried to bring this to my elderly parents' attention, they somehow decided to finish the basement, despite the musty smell and this seasonal flooding for 20 years. I was hoping that maybe Hivex would identify this issue and maybe back me up on this point before they fully converted it to a rentable living space. But they didn't. We then got a huge rain which left visible signs of flooding and standing water on the basement floor. When I told my Dad, he said it was due to Hivex mopping the floor. I was certain that Hivex would help clear this up and attribute the water to the recent storms. They didnt--they confirmed (lied?) to my dad that it was due to their mopping a few days prior. So then they started installing the framing for the drywall, despite the smell and standing water. I knew the project was doomed at this point because once the drywall went up, that moisture would be sealed off behind it and the mold would just flourish. That's when we got the biggest storm in Spring of 2025 which resulted in catastrophic flooding of the basement, leaving zero doubt about the flooding. (This is also a common-sense issue in our area, which has heavy clay soil). We hired a basement moisture company to deal with the seasonal flooding but we had to remove the framing to install the dewatering trench at the base of the wall. At this point, they were really behind schedule. The price was outrageous. Over $80K. My friend just finished his basement and oversaw the drywall, electrical work, cabinetry, etc. He did his basement, which is larger, for around $20,000. The mark up was huge and I was really expecting more. Hivex is for people who love to spend money. Little things they missed: 1. Basement door will not lock and the GC never coordinated with the basement moisture people as to who's fault this was. I thought the GC was supposed to solve things like this and not let things fall through the cracks? 2. Ceiling fan is supposed to reverse during the cold months. This feature is broken which really sucks in the winter time, when all the warmth stays on the ceiling. 3. Faucet was really loose and I had trouble correctly tightening it. Frustrating for a few weeks as it gradually loosened and I had to keep fixing it. 4. The reverse pump for the bathroom was not even sealed. There was a visible gap on the lid of this device and the smell was AWFUL for a few weeks. My aging parents cant smell anything so they just said I was crazy. After a few weeks of this smell, they finally had someone come to seal it. This worker seemed very honest and he said it was bad they missed this. Nasty Hivex. 5. They have really bad deals and poor quality when it comes to their cabinetry and kitchen design options. (Cheap stuff designed to maximize profits). They also refuse to work with whatever company you went with for the cabinets/hardware/faucet. Again, whats the point of the GC if they arent coordinating with everyone? We went with IKEA and it was SO chaotic and horrible. Its basically an automated company at this point.

Of course they have a minimum charge and charge for time, including shopping for customers as if they should do that for free. This is a business and they need to make a profit.
