Wow, I cannot rave enough about Scott Quittner and his tile work. He came highly recommended by…read moreTileCo, THE place in town for quality tile. Seems like everybody goes there. TileCo referred a few others and I asked everyone to come out and bid on a small bathroom remodel. All 3 bids were within 10% or so of each other, and all 4 companies had a good reputations. I chose Scott and T2 Tile Techniques because he seemed like he really wanted to get it done on my schedule and not just his. I know he moved somethings around to make it work and I deeply appreciated that. There was just something about him that was polite, grounded, trustworthy and no-nonsense. Not having much else to tip my decision other than the schedule and his personality (I'm sure the other companies probably would have done nice work too), I chose Scott. What I appreciated about him was that he ended up acting like the contractor on the job, something I did NOT want to do. There was electrical work, he knew my plumber, and everything flowed pretty well. Whenever there was a snag, or a miscommunication, he never blamed me and just got it done. As it turned out the floor tile was much harder to place because he had to level the floor and he never charged me more than the quote to do so. The job was finished ahead of schedule! As others might know, as he worked, I found other things I wanted to add, or change and each time, he just said, "Okay, that will be an extra $60," or something like that. And he always stuck to it. As I paid the invoices there were no surprises, everything was as he said it would be. I even added on a couple things in the room (like a light, computer network cable, door stop...) that had nothing to do with the job and each time he just gave me a quote for the extra work and stuck to it exactly. That was pretty cool. And the quality of the work? Absolutely AMAZING. Truly beautiful tile, grout work, tub fixtures, custom designed backsplash and everything was just gorgeous. Seriously. I LOVE my new bathroom. I have never loved a bathroom before, but I love my new bathroom and I would work with Scott again in a heartbeat. Solid, hardworking, honest, patient, and no-nonsense integrity. His crew was equally outstanding! Super nice, easy to be around and superb workmanship. Unsurprisingly unbelievable painters, drywallers, and tilers. If I say more, it will sound fake. Truly great work. Thanks, Scott!

He poured on the charm very thickly over the phone then behaved in a rather cold and dismissive way upon meeting. He told me he'd send an estimate the following week, which struck me as odd as most companies endeavour to report back quickly so as to secure one's business. Mr. Vicente never bothered to contact me again, not even to tell me that he declined to take the job. He didn't respond to my voicemail either, though I didn't expect him to as it was rather icy in tone. I would suggest that if you are someone with an ordinary middle-class abode and not a prestige project/mansion you might do better to look at some of the other hard-working and professional painters in town. So sorry, Mr. Vicente, that my house isn't the Sistine Chapel. I would never want you to waste your fine art talents on my humble domicile. Apologies for ever bothering you in the first place.

I came back to write this review because David and his company were so impressive. He was one of the few companies that was willing and able to tackle a particularly tricky job - we have a strange spot for a deck where a traditional one can't be built, and needed to have platform-ed deck panels put in. Most construction companies were not willing to try something new, but David was; he's smart and a fun person with whom to talk, and he was very honest with us throughout the entire process. He stuck to his original estimates and was really communicative. We would definitely work with Muir Construction again in the future.

He pays attention to the minute details you appreciate, handles the small and big problems as they arise with innovative solutions, maintains constant contact with you to address your every concern. That would be enough. But then secondly, there's David, the artist. And that's where Muir Construction really is a notch above the rest. David is truly a visual artist who has his art displayed at various venues. He utilizes that same artistic eye and applies it to the details of the job to achieve something beyond satisfaction. He brings your vision to life. That is what he did for me for my two bathrooms. And on top of that, you get a real human being who cares about you. And that is extraordinary and something to be treasured. --Elissa Kerhulas, Writer, Teacher

The paint began fading about a year ago, the retailer and manufacturer indicated the door must be in direct sunlight to cause that type of damage, (not the case), and would not assist me. After contacting a number of painters I hired Russ Rogers to do the job.

I was so pleased with Russ's work I hired him to re-finish a TV/entertainment system cabinet, remove a huge wall mirror, then patch and paint the wall. Great price, good quality, excellent service.
