Sweenor Builders

They built my home 14 years ago, and once I made the final payment to them when the home was…read morefinished, I didn't get much help with problems associated with the construction. Part of the construction was a pre-cast bulkhead entrance to my cellar, which has constantly leaked every time it rains heavily or when there is a lot of snow melting. Their solution was to put down some sealing cement at the base of the bulkhead. Water always finds a way to seep through this stuff and should only be used as a temporary stop gap measure. They also installed my oil furnace at the opposite end of my cellar, 45 feet away from the zero clearance fireplace I had installed, which could have been used to vent the exhaust from the furnace. It's little things like these that don't bode well for customers who use this company. All in all, I wouldn't use this contractor again if I were to build another home. Their houses look great when completed, but the beauty masks the haphazard way they make them. Their slogan should be "Get them up, get them in, good luck and goodbye!!!"

We just finished a major project at our home replacing every window and vinyl sided the entire house. After doing some research and getting 3 quotes, we decided to go with Vinyl Concepts. Signing with Vinyl Concepts was, by far, the best decision we very made for our home. Within a few short weeks, Chris and his team took our home from drab to truly a show place. I cannot imagine another firm being able to do this as well. Their attention to detail and pride in their work was incredible. The project started with stripping our entire house of the old clapboard, replacing all rotting wood underneath the old clapboard and basically bringing the house back to better than new. No other contractor would have gone to this level of care and professionalism, and the materials they used to protect and beautify our home was nothing but the best. We have had everyone from neighbors to delivery folks to complete strangers and even to our mail carrier stopping to take the time to let us know how beautiful our home had become. The bottom line is, I would not consider another firm for a similar project to ours.

Not only was Joe's priced reasonably he was the quickest to respond and gave me options and even found out who had the window I chose. He gave me the option of buying the window myself ( could use my military discount) . Window was installed within days of being quoted. I believe it took longer to locate the window than it did for Joe to have it installed. So all said and done he removed my old 15000 btu thru the wall AC , put in my new window , trimmed it all out, offered to repair a pice of broken siding and took the old AC and disposed of for a fraction of what everyone else was quoting me. We could not be happier with the job and will definitely use Phase Pro again.

That project took about 4-5 months to complete, with a couple of structural issues & changes we made along the way.

The resulting kitchen, bath & living areas are beautiful & sunny with the now open floor design. Several months ago we decided to renovate our downstairs bathroom and called upon OnLine Builders again.

Lawrence Builders

3.0

We hired Lawrence Builders (LB) in the Fall of 2016 for major renovations of our master bathroom…read moreand kitchen for our Rhode Island home. The initial thrust for these projects was our desire to replace outdated cabinetry. Below are the major problems we encountered, our concerns, some positive experiences, and our opinions regarding LB and our projects. Our intent in writing this review is to provide our honest opinions and experiences with LB's business so our RI neighbors can have unfiltered information about the pros and cons of doing business with LB. We're puzzled as to how and why the following issues materialized having worked with many other builders/designers on many other projects over the years: 1. Partial overlay cabinetry was selected for both the kitchen and bath without consulting us. We ended up having to pay for both our desired full overlay cabinets and half the cost for the partial overlay cabinets that were non-returnable (thousands of dollars). 2. Within days of turning on the water to the new toilet for the first time, we had a major leak from the area around the toilet. We ended up paying $8,000 out of pocket for the repair. LB initially agreed to pay half for the repair after inspecting the area where leak originated, but recently decided not to pay because they didn't believe they were at fault (our side disagrees). We've decided to move on. 3. We requested that a bathroom faucet set that has a lot of sentimental and historical value to the home be re-installed. We ended up spending significantly extra for a vanity stone top, though desirable to us, did not accommodate the faucet we wanted to retain. We would've liked to have at least been presented with stone options that accommodated the desired faucet set. 4. We had multiple cracks in our newly installed kitchen glass backsplash. We first thought that they may have been from many people congregating in the kitchen area at one time at parties. However, a tile expert who visited our home thought it was more likely due to L-cuts that were too tight and a potential need for more flexible adhesives/caulks around the L-cuts. There have been no more cracks since LB's L-cut repairs, even with two large house parties since the repair. 5. The dumpster left a gouge along two-thirds of the length of our driveway. We had to discover this on our own a few weeks after jobs were completed. We will be saddled with replacing our driveway. You can't just patch a chipped stone driveway. 6. There were some very minor leftover jobs left at the end of the projects. Instead of withholding our last payment until these items were addressed by LB, we made final payment to LB assuming these punch list items would be resolved. LB never showed to handle these items or to fill in deep holes left by LB's advertising sign after multiple follow up calls. We paid a painter and landscaper to handle these items. In writing this review, we wanted to be fair, truthful, and balanced. We didn't want to lose sight of some of our positive experiences. LB's owner Steve is a friendly and hard-working individual as are John and all the subcontractors and office staff (Lisa) who work with him. The visual beauty of the final work can't be denied. Steve is green-conscious, responds quickly to most client communications, is calm under stress and also exuded a client-friendly vibe in the early stages of our relationship. We are not leaving our relationship with LB angry or vengeful, but sad and disappointed.

Most important, I did not have to micromanage his team or explain to them once again, what I asked for, contracted and expected. The prices we agreed on are the prices I paid. During the final walk around, there were a few little details we identified together and he sent someone back promptly to complete the adjustments without excuses or complaints. You can have confidence in his honesty and integrity, quality of work and commitment to your satisfaction.
