Project Scope This…read moreproject included full exterior renovation work consisting of vinyl siding installation, ledger stone work, porch flooring tile installation, trim installation, and related exterior finishing work on the home. Initial Consultation - Grade: A My initial meeting with Lewis Debrickus was excellent. He listened carefully to my ideas, walked the property with me, asked thoughtful questions, took measurements, and showed genuine interest in the project. He provided a fair and timely estimate within two days. I selected him primarily based on his labor cost and workmanship value, as I was handling much of the materials and planning myself. Communication Before the Project - Grade: A From the initial meeting until the project began about a month later, Lewis and I stayed in regular contact through emails and phone calls. His communication was consistent and professional, giving me confidence that I had chosen the right contractor. I received estimates from eight different contractors for this project, and Lewis's price was by far the fairest while still demonstrating a clear understanding of the scope of work. Project Start - Grade: A On the first day of the project, Lewis Debrickus arrived with George and two additional workers. George served as the on-site foreman and managed the crew throughout the day. Lewis returned at the end of the day to check on the progress. The work went smoothly, the job site was kept clean, and it was clear that good progress was being made. George was friendly, knowledgeable, and a hard worker, and the rest of the team also performed well. Project Progress - Grade: A- The first week went as planned, and I was pleased with the progress. Whenever issues arose, George discussed them with me and resolved them promptly. I also requested additional repairs that were not included in the original contract, and Lewis charged very fair prices for the extra work. During the second week, two days of rain delayed the project. Communication slowed somewhat during that time, but we stayed in contact, and once the weather improved, the work resumed without any problems. Although Lewis spent less time on-site, he remained available by phone whenever I needed to speak with him. Subcontracted Work - Grade: B Some of the work, specifically the stone installation, was subcontracted. The final result initially did not fully meet my expectations, and I take partial responsibility for that outcome based on decisions made during the project. After realizing I had additional stone available, I requested that the remaining porch wall be completed, and that section was finished differently than originally planned since it was initially intended to be covered by a J-channel. Because of these changes and layout adjustments, it is understandable why a couple of areas are not as seamless as originally planned. There was still one or two areas that concern me slightly; however, Lewis reviewed the work with me, agreed that some corrections were needed, and addressed those issues to my satisfaction.I am satisfied with the overall appearance of the finished stonework. Porch Flooring Tile Installation - Grade: B+ The porch flooring tile installation produced a final result that I am happy with overall. However, the installation took approximately one week to complete for a 4-foot by 29-foot porch, which was longer than I expected. During the installation, I identified a couple of areas that required correction, and those issues were addressed. While applying the tile and grout sealer, I also discovered a few grout joints that had been missed. Despite these concerns, the corrections made and the overall appearance of the finished porch met my expectations. Overall Summary Overall, the project was well managed and produced a strong final result. Lewis Debrickus demonstrated fair pricing, good communication, and professionalism throughout the project. Although there were quality concerns with portions of the subcontracted stonework and the porch tile installation required a few corrections, Lewis acknowledged the issues and ensured they were resolved. Based on my overall experience, I would recommend Lewis Debrickus to homeowners looking for a contractor who offers quality workmanship, fair labor pricing, and stands behind his work by addressing concerns when they arise. Overall Rating: 4.6 / 5

In the summer of 2024, after cleaning one of my double-hung living room windows, a part broke and I…read morecouldn't either keep it open or easily close. We called around in Hampton, landed with Patrick's Glass, who didn't "have the time to come out and look." So, we took down what we knew to write, the broken part and brought it to the shop. The shop person had a part on his desk that looked very much like the part we needed but explained that they would need to come out to look at the issue. "We don't have the time to come out." He referred us to a handyman he knew; whom we called who did come out. Carter Britton, the person, came out and never followed up. We called him multiple times, either no answer or ignored. Now, a year plus later, the window issue is not resolved, and it is getting cold. We need this window to work, and it looks like we need it replaced. We will not entertain the idea of Patrick's Glass any longer for the disappointing experience with his business. We can't even get a ballpark figure for the repair or replacement, as it requires someone to inspect and do the work. We are still looking and again starting fresh. No recommendation for this business, we are not recommending the business and sure will never call them again.

I have had window glass replaced with Patrick's also. I got quotes from other local companies but Patrick's was reasonable, helpful and professional. Thanks Ryan and Danny! Would highly recommend Patrick's Glass - good people!

I was so pleased to have her come back to my house and touch up my boys room and give them the extra touch I wanted on their walls. She really was attentive to my review and honored my request in making sure I was completely satisfied. She doesn't just leave u unsatisfied and guarantees to promise you on making u completely happy. She made sure to come back and scheduled time to do finishing touches in my kids room and turn it exactly the way I in visioned it. The teal on the walls pop and every color, the blues on my walls popped! I needed someone as meticulous and thorough to do the job and she exceeded my expectations! ----------------------------------------------------- I want to thank Melody for a job well done and in doing an amazing paint job on my house. I've ran several quotes of other painters in the area but nothing came out to meet the pricing and standards that Melody gave. She quoted me for the paint job. And although I found cheaper you also do get what you pay for. She also made sure I stayed in budget and tried to keep costs down by using the necessary paint I already provided. Upon meeting with Melody, I liked that she was very kind, considerate and professional at making sure she was going to take my ideas into consideration and get the paint job done. She worked around painting my house with my boys popping their heads in a couple times during the day and my dog lingering around. My house had accent walls with navy blue colors in different parts of the house, grey in some areas and teal in my boys room. The colors popped and married well with the design of my house. The job was done more quickly then I expected. The only thing I failed to do was ask for a walk through after the paint job was done to make sure it was everything I wanted. I did run things by her about some additions and tweaks I needed to get done to my boys room. This was after I already had paid her and left. There was just a small miscommunication about my concept I wanted. I was so busy on her last day of the job that I didn't really examine carefully to make sure I was 100% with everything I wanted in my house design. We communicated after the job about doing a follow up in doing the additions I wanted in the boys room. she responded to assure me she will take care of it. I was so pleased to had received a thank you card in the mail from her. The only reason why I gave her 4 stars for now is because I am still waiting for her to do the necessary minor additions to my boys room. I will update my rating and post pictures of her work once all is completed. I want to make sure we have a formal walk through with the paint task done which would guarantee me and any customer to be 100% satisfied.

She is an artist, not a "painter". 3700 sq ft and over a dozen colors including split lines, accent…read morewalls, and ceiling trays. I will recommend Beyond Colors to anyone considering painting your own home. *One bit of advice, when it comes to paint, you get what you pay for. Don't buy cheap paint. Buy the best paint with one coat coverage, you'll make it up when you use less paint. Go-go-gadget Melody!
