The latest incident was his crew jackhammering and using heavy equipment for almost the whole day yesterday which was President's Day holiday, and per Marin County code such work was prohibited. When we emailed to complain to him, he says he's behind schedule 3 weeks -- as if that puts him above the law.

This is an amazing boutique construction company in Marin County. I have renovated 10 homes over…read morethe years and he is hands down the best I've worked with (wish I'd found him earlier)! He has just finished a large deck at our home and it is absolutely beautiful. He listened to all of our ideas, supplied many of his own - all of which were great, and turned what was a tired, dated outdoor space into a true showplace. He stayed true to his estimate, saved us money where he could, and completed the work right on time. We love all of the wonderful finishing touches he put into the project -- really made the deck special. In addition, he and his workers are very easy to have around the house, left the space neat and clean every night, and cleaned up every bit of the area when the project was completed. We are definitely hiring him to do the next three projects we're facing and I know we'll be just as thrilled!

Rory did a master suite remodel for us in 2021. Started out feeling great about him, he'd worked…read morefor a friend and their recommendation was good. He seemed knowledgeable, friendly, and inexpensive compared to other quotes I'd seen. Soon enough things went south. The job dragged on, as it became obvious he was juggling our job with about 4 others. His workers would disappear for days, often putting in 2 days work in a week, never a full week focused on our project. He would show up once a week at most, look irritated at his crew, then disappear. At one point we went on vacation for 3 weeks, with the expectation that they would be almost complete when we returned. We got home - almost nothing had been done, they were elsewhere the whole time. Eventually they finished, after I ended up shouting at Rory in frustration - that has never happened before. There were many issues -the tile work was shoddy, with a lot of misaligned grout lines. The floor tiles (admittedly large 2' x 4' tiles, so tricky) had hollow spots everywhere, where they didn't use enough mortar, even though I specified I didn't want that to happen. He opted to cut the sink hole in our counter himself, and did a horrible job (he had to patch a kerf that he mis-cut). 3 years later here we are, had to get another contractor to trench the shower pan and fix the leak in the supply line from Rory's horrible plumbing. In doing so the new contractor keeps finding bad work - all the wall tiles were put on with just dabs of mortar, instead of a full mortar bed - so they're prone to cracking. The curb was done incorrectly, so could potentially leak over time. I could go on.... It's obvious that Rory has made people happy in the past, and I expect he could do decent work if he wasn't juggling too many jobs. But for us he cut every corner, ignored our requests, and did crummy work that guaranteed we'd have to repair things down the road. Shop elsewhere.

We were living out of town and had to trust John to take care of everything without us being there. The result was above and beyond expectations. We later (2009) contracted John to remodel our kitchen and family room - major effort, removing walls and soffits, rerouting furnace ducts, raising ceilings, all new cabinets and appliances, window moldings, wiring and lighting, rebuilding fireplace and mantel. Outstanding workmanship! Several years later (~2013) we had John remodel four bathrooms and our master bedroom, tearing down to studs and rebuilding everything - rerouting plumbing, adding another new fireplace, new tile showers and flooring, all new lighting, and replacing carpet with hardwood floors. John often recognized and repaired original construction flaws in the process. John is extremely easy to work with, constantly checking and being sensitive to our desires - and patiently accommodating our changes of mind as we went along. John's prices are reasonable. He personally does most of the work himself. When he does use a subcontractor for a speciality, he is always present and oversees the subcontractor''s work. Nothing is done that he doesn't oversee completely, and take responsibility for. He generally works only one project at a time so you have his full attention start to finish. He never missed a day on the job. He discusses proposed subcontractors with you before bringing them in, and they have always been outstanding. He leaves the worksite totally clean each night. We've never had a problem or call back with anything he did. He always answered immediately if I called with a question or problem. He is a joy to work with. Obviously, I recommend him highly.
