I asked Don to estimate the cost of repairs to make the stairs safe, but not replace them completely. He quoted a fair price and emailed the estimate. He also agreed to repair a loose brick stair leading to a the upper yard. He arrived a couple of weeks later with his equipment,as agreed, and got right to work cutting lumber to make forms to shape the repair. He left for a time while the concrete set, and returned later to finish. He put in many hours, fixing it perfectly and cleaning everything up afterward. He even came by later with a tarp, since rain was expected before the concrete dried completely. I would recommend him highly.

On the day that his team came to do the work, he showed me exactly where and why the roof was leaking. It made me confident that the work done solved the problem.

Allen and his team came up with an amazing plan to bring my newly purchased and outdated condo up…read moreto a new and modern day look that both my fiance and I wanted. I initially had reservations about using a designer in general because I wasn't sure how everything would look and I wanted my house to be mine after everything was said and done. Allen was very receptive to my concerns and helped both me and my fiance understand the remodeling process and helped to keep in in control of the process. His suggestions ended up being exactly what I was looking for and then some! He was even able to help me work around the restrictions of my condo association which was amazing! Highly recommended I can't say it enough.

Essentially, most of our house was demo'd for this major project. We were nervous about everything, cost, design, etc and Allen walked us through each step, making us extremely confident about the project. He is very thoughtful and experienced when it comes to both function and thinking long term to resale value. Allen made many suggestions that we did not know were even possible to increase the functionality of our (new) home. We are now in the midst of the renovation/addition and he is still involved in the process to make sure we are happy with the design. I really cannot say enough about him as well as the contractor that he referred us to. We would highly recommend Allen and SDA (so much so that 2 of our neighbors are planning to work with him in the near future)!

Michael and crew promptly showed up, reviewed overall project layout and got started quickly and efficiently. Of all the quotes I received, Michael went into the most detail providing the proper measurements I was looking for; excavate 8-10 inches, add 8 inches of base, then 2 inches of base asphalt and 2 inches of top asphalt. They went above and beyond to make sure that the existing driveway and new driveway graded properly so that it all looked like one. Prior yo driveway being redone, we had lots of water/drainage issues and Michael's crew graded our driveway to allow proper flow of water as well as redid our berm so that the water coming down the street will stay away!

We realized that we needed to add fine grading to our project, and Mike wasn't able to make it work with his schedule. But I was very happy with how easy it was to get a hold of Mike and he answered all my questions. He gave a great quote for the project, it's just that our timing didn't line up.

Victor and his team did a terrible job working on our house. We contracted them to remove all of…read morethe paneling and replace it with drywall, as well as remove and replace all of the doors in 4 rooms of our house. Not only do the doors not work, meaning that they don't close all the way - if at all, but they didn't remove all of the paneling from the rooms we contracted them to remove it from either. In addition, they also painted some rough drywall around one of the doors as though it was door trim, in the hopes that we wouldn't notice the fact that they didn't even bother to complete putting the trim on the door. Now that we've started working on having the poor work done by Home Verse completed by someone else, we've also found numerous instances where the paneling wasn't removed either. I've attached photos of the paneling we've found in various rooms, as well as some of the drywall issues we've encountered, and a photo of the painted drywall next to the door frame that they didn't install the trim on. Stay away from this company, and hire a different contractor. When contacted about the issues listed, and sent the following photos of what we found, no refunds or compensation of any kind were offered.

When they arrived for the install, we asked them to pull their box truck up to our front lawn, where there was plenty of room and access to the kitchen. Despite being explicitly asked to pull their truck to our front door and not the backyard, they attempted to drive up to our back door, took our short steel linked fence out of the ground, damaging a raised garden bed, (as well as leaving ruts in our yard) in the process. They also drove- then idled- their box truck, full of marble countertops, directly over our septic tank. We documented everything with photos, Ring videos, and written communications to discuss with Granite Guys management. After the installers left, we also discovered that one of the two sink installations in the kitchen was prominently off-center (photo attached). After we reached out to Granite Guys, the owner of the company came out to look at the damage. He acknowledged that his staff made a serious mistake with the install, then looked me in the eye and shook my hand as he promised that they would return to perform our spring cleanup as compensation and to resolve the issue. I accepted and emailed the administrator that he had agreed to perform a spring cleanup and I would reach out again then. The administrator responded and confirmed they took responsibility for the issues in the yard. On March 28th I emailed them again and asked them to come for the spring cleanup. For the next five weeks, I received very little communication from them. After unanswered emails, they responded on the morning of May 4th that they would be coming later that same day. Two guys showed up in a pickup truck, got out, took pictures of the lawn area my husband had already repaired, rang the Ring doorbell at the garage door exactly once, and then left. I emailed Granite Guys once again asking why they had left without taking care of the yard, and have not heard back. I have been attempting, unsuccessfully, to resolve this privately and patiently with Granite Guys. Though my husband was able to repair our yard, the flaw in our $7,000 countertops is permanent. Granite Guys Inc. cannot be trusted and should be avoided at all costs.

The preparation and painting of the siding took awhile given the condition of the house, but despite weather delay (rain for nearly 3 weeks straight) Tom and his crew got the job done. He gave good advice for keeping the paint in shape. Furthermore, he and his crew were extremely detail oriented in painting the trim and the deck. The outside of the house now looks the best it has in probably a decade. He provided detailed receipts for materials used, and the total costs were a bargain considering the outstanding workmanship and attention to detail. Overall, Middlesex Paint provided the best painting job I have witnessed for any house that I have lived in. I highly recommend them to anyone looking for good painters who take pride in their work, and I will be contacting them in the future for any painting needs.
