Discovered this company on Yelp! Initially the response times were pretty fair. Once we agreed to…read moreset everything up I was so excited to get my fireplace project going! The guys came to my place to measure and I paid 1/2 down ($1200) to get the project going. Ordered a fireplace mantle, frame, and hearth ($2400) and asked for photos along the way. (The insert was bought separately, mine cost about $1300 from Amazon). Was told it would be ready in 3 weeks. Almost 3 weeks to go and I had not received any updates or photos so I reached out to Rob. I was told there was an emergency within family/manufacture and it would be another 3 weeks; I totally understood. About 2 1/2 more weeks went by and we were finally able to schedule an install. Was informed I needed to mail Rob a check for the rest of the bill. He also told me it would be an additional $75 to install cutting the trip. This caught me off guard because this cost wasn't discussed at signing. I asked for a discount due to the delay and got $25 off for Rob to cut the wall trim. So I mailed a check prior to install for $1250 to include new cost of trim cutting). Day of install my trim was cut and fireplace frame/hearth placed into position. Once Rob said they were done I inspected and it appeared the frame wasn't installed/secured to wall, it was just free standing. I asked Rob to please secure it to the wall so that it would not fall over. He said he could come back in a few days since he didn't have his stud finder. I asked him again to do it before he left my home, and he agreed. Now it is screwed to the wall (right side not in a stud) with two screws. In addition, I explained that I did not like the way the trim was cut that it looked unfinished. My wall in that area was also damaged. Rob hadn't explained that he would be leaving my walls/trim damaged/unfinished and cut like this (see attached) so I asked him to fix it. He told me he would need to come back and would have to charge me. My walls/paint in that area were damaged in the process. In my living room, he told me my expectations were very high, and left. I have texted Rob twice to try and schedule him to come back but he's not responded. Which is why I waited to post this review. Now my walls and trim are damaged/unfinished and I have to figure out how to do it myself or find a contractor to fix it. Overall I am happy that I now have a fireplace in place of my empty wall. Unfortunately, the service or product did not meet my expectations ($2450) plus cost of trim/wall repair (unknown at this point). The mantle has dings all over it, top is uneven, and stain not completely covering all surfaces. The piece wasn't secured properly to the studs and the fireplace insert is not secured at all. Rob recommended I put an epoxy on it to secure to frame. (The other day my friend's baby was playing by it with my small dog and I had to rush to get him away from it.) In addition, color of the stone looks more gold with a couple gray ones, versus the neutral colors that I requested, and the hearth ($1000) appears to be a concrete slab. Throughout the project the service and all responses times were poor. I will need to repair the trim and white wash the stone to the colors I originally asked for. Lastly, I didn't want to leave this negative review. I was hoping that Rob or his associates would fix what I requested but instead I was ignored and left with having to make repairs myself.

The photos were taken immediately after you "fixed" the joints. Sloppy, sloppy, sloppy. The dust in…read morethe photos was left by you. And don't forget about the mess you left when you and your crew did the initial install. You hand sanded the entire mantle and surround and didn't bother containing the area. We had to pay for duct cleaning and housecleaning. When I brought it to your attention you wanted to send one of your workers to clean our home. I refused so you offered a $100 discount. Cleaning your mess cost us $625. BTW, my children don't use the mantel as a jungle Jim. They're 12 & 8. They play outside.

I was recommended to Tony/A&M Cabinetry by another highly reviewed Yelp contractor, but who was too…read morebusy to take on my job. It turned out to be the best recommendation I have ever received. Tony spent a good amount of time trying to understand our requirements, and was able to provide us exactly what we were looking for, while coming up with some great ideas to keep it all within our budget. We used A&M to build and install three 10' long/2" thick shelves on "elfa" system's hanging standards hardware from the Container Store. Not only did he build a set of beautiful sturdy shelves, but also offered to pick the hardware for us from the Container store before the day of the installation so he could inspect and keep it all ready. Amazing workmanship, and flawless installation. A&M also built and installed five 72"H x 30"W x 15"D garage cabinets + a set of upper and lower cabinets - rows of three 30"W x 24"H x 12"D cabinets and drawers. Again, everything I mentioned in the paragraph above about the quality of work, willingness to come up with ideas to keep the project within budget, and installation process applies to this project as well. Highly recommended! Now on, Tony would be the only contractor we'd be turning to for any woodwork projects. Given his passion for details and aesthetics, Tony is in high demand by commercial projects, so depending on the size of your project, you might have to be flexible with the schedule when hiring A&M Cabinetry. It'd be worth the wait if you do.

He just completed installing 5 BEAUTIFUL window moldings for us and I couldn't be happier! Its important to point out that we had some major problems with 3 side by side windows that were not even. Rich worked long and hard to make the sizing problem invisible in his finish product. He even came to my house 4 times to make sure I was happy with the design insert that would hide the problem. I've included pictures of the windows mentioned above along with a close up of the design but the lightening is making the detail a bit hard to see. Take my word for it-its gorgeous!
