I had my floors redone in January of 2022 and now have had water coming up through the foundation from under the planks. Turns out they did not put down a subflooring liner prior to installing the luxury vinyl planks - I was told that in 2022, it was not required to put a subfloor down as it is now. In the instructions, it was recommended for high moisture installations. Given that I live in FL and my house is right next to a lake, that would make this a high moisture installation and they should have put one down. But according to them, they were not required to do that so they ignored the warning and had no care for the customer. I had a separate floor company come out to check it out. He said it was installed incorrectly and that they should have put the subfloor down regardless of it being required or not. The water that is coming up is from hydrostatic pressure in the foundation, which is very common in FL and also this area of town given the bodies of water/humidity. Recently they had someone come to the house to do an "assessment" and found that basically the whole floor needs to be replaced. When I asked for a copy of the assessment they won't provide me with one as per "company policy" but then also couldn't tell me why that policy is in place. After all of that, they offered to replace the floors as a paid service with a discount (LOL NO TY). I will be contacting a lawyer about this. I repeat - DO NOT HIRE THIS COMPANY!!!!! I mean, if you want half-baked work, then these are the people you should call but keep in mind, you'll have more work to be done later on because of them.

It has been a long long journey in fixing our house from the hurricane and there are only a few people I will ever recommend from our experience, I can say without doubt Shines King is one of them! Responded quickly, reliable, honest & quote was extremely reasonable. We even gave them a bit more for the work. Please give them a call - you will be happy you did. Can't thank Dimas & team enough.

We contacted Dimas and he was very responsive and came to assess the floors. He treated a small spot and showed us that the floors were white and could be restored to their original condition.

We also had a poorly tiled bathroom floor that was in need of removal. Again, he quoted a very reasonable price and actually removed the tile manually so as to not damage the floor underneath. Again, beautiful results of the terrazzo floor underneath! I can't recommend Dimas and Shine's King enough! They were reliable, honest, fair and a pleasure to deal with. You wont be disappointed!

Gary Clark Review Renovations Home Center Review…read moreKAS Construction Review In June 2023, my wife and I hired Gary Clark, owner of Renovations Home Center and KAS Construction in Palm Harbor, for a renovation of our home. Unfortunately, the experience was overwhelmingly negative, and I feel compelled to share it to help others make informed decisions. (Yes, I did online research before commencing this project with Mr. Clark but there were no warning signs of what the future would entail.) Key Issues: High-Pressure Sales Tactics: Gary Clark pressured us into making a $28,208 commitment payment for kitchen cabinets, claiming we had to act immediately to secure a distant construction start date. He hinted at a possible earlier timeline, which later proved to be false. Design and Communication Problems: Gary Clark delegated much of the design work and communications to his young daughter, which led to repeated revisions and delays. The designs often didn't align with what we requested, and I had to repeatedly remind him that this was my house. Adding to the delays, Gary Clark frequently left town for his new business in North Carolina. No Progress Made: By the time Gary Clark terminated the KAS Construction / Renovations Home Center contract via email after I expressed my frustration at the never-ending escalating costs, no tangible progress had been made. There were no permits, no architectural plans, no materials had been ordered, not even his "specialty" of cabinets had been ordered - nothing to show for the months we spent working with him. Broken Refund Promises: When Gary Clark sent a termination of services email stating "at this time I feel we should tear up your contract and I'll refund your deposit." Later he insisted on keeping "some" money for his "time," which ultimately turned out that he wanted to keep nearly all the money. After weeks of negotiation, he agreed to a more reasonable settlement, but I paid to have a formal settlement letter drafted, he refused to sign and reneged once again. Unfulfilled Refund: As of January 2025, we have not received any portion of our $28,208, nor have we received any cabinets or work from Gary Clark, Renovations Home Center, or KAS Construction. Legal and Regulatory Actions: We reported the issue to various regulatory agencies in Pinellas County and the State of Florida. Gary Clark was subsequently investigated for fraud and other potential violations. The Florida State Attorney recently "determined that the facts and circumstances as presented do not warrant prosecution at this time." Advice for Potential Customers: If you are considering hiring Gary Clark, Renovations Home Center, or KAS Construction, I strongly recommend submitting public records requests to relevant agencies. This will provide valuable insights into his track record and help you make an informed decision. Final Thoughts: This experience has been incredibly disappointing. We lost months of time, trust, and $28,208 without seeing any progress. Fortunately the statute of limitations is five years, so we have time to file a civil lawsuit, but that won't erase the horrible experience we had with the construction industry.

Not only was the owner difficult to deal with, but the quality of the work was beyond poor. The owner apparently has difficulty keeping qualified sub-contractor and used more than one on our project that never worked for him in the past. We're still dealing with defective installation of hard wood floors, which were covered in adhesive which we cannot remove. The kitchen cabinet doors are out of alignment, and the his drywall installer was simply incompetent. The plumber forgot to install one of the valves on the shower system and told us we order incorrectly. You would not believe how he corrected the problem. The work site was left trashed at the end of the work day and personal items walked off the job site. If I could give less than one star I would!
