10 stars. Saul and his crew gutted and rebuilt my kitchen, and turned my laundry room into a second…read morebathroom. It was a pleasure to work with him from start to finish. Before we'd even signed the contract, he spent hours at my home going over details and possibilities. They came early, worked late, often six days a week. They got things done when they said they would, and came in on budget, which was a miracle considering some of the surprises we found in the walls. They kept the rest of the house clean and tidy, and finessed things with the neighbors when needed. But ultimately, it's all about the finished product, and we LOVE our kitchen and bathroom. The workmanship is impeccable, and we've received endless compliments on how great it looks. I got Saul's name from a friend who has had him build a roof deck, refinish a kitchen, add a bedroom, and rejuvenate a fireplace, and he and his wife also have had nothing but praise.

Salgo Constructions (owner Saul Gonzalez): AVOID!!!! AVOID!!! Hire at your own risk…read more Reasons: 1) Workmanship: I had my master bathroom renovated, and the finished product is a huge disappointment. At first glance, it looked ok, but closer inspection revealed flaws with the renovation. For one thing, the tiles are crooked and not spaced evenly. The tile work in public bathrooms are way better than what they've done. Secondly, the touch-up for the scratches and dents that they inflicted on the walls were pretty shabby. Now my bathroom looks very amateurish. I used to like my bathroom, but now it gives me a heartache. It certainly will bring down the value of my house. 2) Untrustworthiness: The workers somehow knew every single nook and cranny of my house. They only needed to go from the garage to master bathroom, but somehow they decided to explore every inch of my house and even opened up some closets and drawers. First, the owner's brother (who happened to be one of the workers) denied my allegations. He only confessed when I found my kitchen knife in one of my spare bedrooms one day. He claimed that he used my kitchen knife because he had forgotten his cutting knife. Now, why would he be using my kitchen knife for his construction work? 3) Unprofessionalism: His final invoice included extra work and charges that I had not approved. I understand that unanticipated challenges with any renovation project, but he neglected to tell me what they were and how much over budget it would cost me. He proceeded without my permission, and decided to add extra charges to the final invoice. I even sought advice from a lawyer, who concluded that I was not responsible for those extra charges because he did not provide me with a new work order. 4) Lack of accountability: They installed a new shower mixer and shower head for the stall. Not sure what they did besides turning off the water main, but my plumbing was never the same afterwards. The owner refused to take accountability. I had to hire my own plumber to get the problem fixed. Here's my rebuttal to the contractor's response: "Installed sheetrock for FREE; Installed shower stall for FREE; Installed insulation for FREE; Customized the shower tiles for shower pan and shower ceiling for FREE." These were all part of the work that needed to be done for renovating the shower stall, as agreed upon in the original contract. It is unclear to me why the contractor considered them as a favor to me and that they were done for "FREE." That was basically the majority of the work that I contracted him to do. "Installed a new shower drain for FREE." I was not provided with a new work order for a new shower drain and not informed until the work was completed. "Provided a NEW medicine cabinet for FREE." One of the workers burned a hole into my existing medicine cabinet and made it no longer usable. Therefore, the contractor is responsible for the replacement. "Gave you $1000 off the original price." The contractor and I negotiated down the original bid by $960. Salgo Construction's bid was actually higher than others that I had received. I don't see it as a "discount." It was part of the negotiation process before we mutually agreed on the total cost of the renovation. "Accepted a partial payment of the final invoice." I made the full payment according to the original contract. As stated above, per an attorney's advice, I am not responsible for extra costs/labor without full disclosure and a new work order.

He was always on time and his work was of exceptional quality. I highly recommend using Tight Lines Construction for your next project.

We contacted John Hobson after our regular contractor could not deal with a failed main entry…read morebreaker at our country property. Both breaker and the holder had burned out due to a combination of age, humidity, and overload. John came at the appointed time, inspected the complex wiring due to incremental additions to a 1915 house. He considered short- and long-term solutions. So that our tenants would have power and heat again he devised an immediate fix which required some unique connectors, drove to town to get the needed parts from two stores, and then installed a fused bypass. Our tenants had power when they came home. We are now getting the permits and design for a long-term solution and hope he will be able to help us again.

That's where Farley and crew at Custom Media Works came in. They helped select equipment, they installed, they programmed, they serviced, they did everything. And they did everything well.... I mean really well. If you are looking for a custom high end media solution I can't imagine you'd find a better outfit to work with. My sample size is small (OK there is no sample size...

Most notable is their customer service. I encountered a few follow-on glitches, which they handled immediately without fussing or complication.

We contracted with WCSS to complete several significant interior renovations to our home, including…read morethe following: * Replacement of all interior flooring - downstairs with Engineered Hardwood Flooring, upstairs with carpeting, and the stairwell between floors a combination of EHF with an overlay of carpet. * Sanding and staining all interior doors and cabinetry (other than kitchen and bathroom cabinets) to update from old "oak-ey" to much more modern look and feel * Demo current stairwell and replace all newels, balusters and railings and stain all wood components to complement interior doors and cabinetry The results of the project far exceeded our expectations. Haim, our key WCSS contact, was absolutely fantastic from start to finish. He was the first contractor to return the requests we sent to several contractors - from the moment we met him he clearly understood his business and had worked with us so effectively to select floorings, stains, stairwell materials, etc. He invested himself in our project - checking in frequently, ensuring our satisfaction each step of the way, alerting us to next steps, and issues, etc promptly to avoid any surprises. He organized an outstanding team of craftsmen to execute the work - Angel, the project supervisor, Jose, the flooring installation expert, Jose, the paint/stain expert - my wife and I are both very "picky" and somewhat demanding where quality of work is concerned - both of us were blown away by the knowledge, expertise, outstanding craftsmanship and attention to detail each of our team exhibited. We could not be happier with the results - it exceeds every expectation we went into the project with. We cannot recommend the WCSS team more highly - they are simply the best.

We had no previous experience with any kind of major home repairs, so finding a trustworthy set of contractors to compare quotes from was a frustrating experience. Contractors would not show up, or come but never get around to submitting estimates, or be incredibly patronizing. Not Daniel! He was extremely patient, came out twice to do an estimate as we dithered over what needed to be done, gave a lot of good advice and was incredibly patient with my never ending stream of questions. He was communicative and had great follow up. Even though we ended up going with someone else for this particular project, we will definitely be using him in the future for other improvements we have in mind!
