I am not leaving this review based on the quality of the work, but rather on the communication and…read morehow the billing was handled. If this review were based solely on the work itself, I would have given 5 stars. I recently purchased a home and hired D'Franco Painting to remove wallpaper from three rooms, one of which had painted-over wallpaper. Their team successfully removed the wallpaper and completed the work well. My concern is with the billing process. The estimate I received listed 25 hours and was quoted at approximately $2,600. A two-person crew worked on the project for about three days, generally from 8:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m. (give or take an hour), which led me to believe the total labor would be around 25-30 hours. When I received the final invoice, however, I was billed for 52 hours, bringing the total to approximately $3,890. At no point in the estimate was it stated that the hours were per person, calculated as man-hours, or otherwise dependent on crew size. Nothing in the estimate suggested that the final labor hours could more than double based on how many employees were assigned to the project. It took multiple conversations with both Daphne, the office manager, and David before I understood why there was such a significant difference between the estimate and the final invoice. We paid the bill in full. However, I would have appreciated greater transparency from the beginning. Had I understood how the labor was being calculated, I likely would have completed the project in phases rather than all at once. Because of this experience, we will not be using D'Franco Painting for future projects. If you choose to work with them, I would strongly encourage you to ask detailed questions about how labor hours are estimated and billed so there are no surprises at the end of the project

This review is for work done in Nov. I urge you to look past the 5-star reviews--owner David told…read moreme himself they had bad ratings and "did some marketing" and now have a bunch of 5 star reviews. Based on my experience, DeFranco Painting is unprofessional, disorganized, and potentially dangerous. David subcontracted the work, and one of his subcontractors threatened me because I wouldn't tell him how much I was paying DeFranco, trespassed into our home after being fired, and had to be removed by David himself when being fired--who then told me to hide in the garage for safety. We even had to call the police due to a confrontation outside our home between David and the subcontractor. David quoted us 3 coats of paint, then denied it mid-job and tried to charge more, despite written proof. He also charged an additional $500 for mud work done in a tiny section of the home. We were also told by his own subs that he doesn't pay them on time, which could result in liens against your property. He failed to provide the proper legal documents required by IL law when requesting final payment. We had to involve an attorney, and instead of resolving the issue, David threatened to put a lien on our house even though he didn't have the correct paperwork. Work took 5+ weeks instead of ~2, and the quality was poor: damaged floors, blinds, window crank, and paint everywhere. Avoid DeFranco Painting. Try A&A or Compos Painting instead--much more professional. Stay tuned for an update to this review pending any response from DeFranco.

This company refused to complete our three 3d renderings because we were so disappointed, shocked,…read moreand had safety concerns about the first rendering. Kristen, the wife of the owner, became belligerent, threatening us with a lawsuit if we reviewed them. They have only done one rendering, refusing to comply with a signed contract to complete the next two that are in the contract. They also refuse to reimburse any of the $699 we paid, even though they refuse to complete what was agreed upon in the signed contract. The BBB took this complaint, but as this company has done with the other complaints, they refuse to respond. I would stay clear of this company. The first rendering did not have proper posts that would even support the deck we wanted built. It looked like a kid did the rendering and they said it was because it was the first one. Well, I expected the first one to knock us off our feet since it was $699 and that it would only need a few tweaks. Instead it raised red flags. They should have been embarrassed to send it to us. Also, need to mention that Kristen inflates the price unjustifiably. Also wanted to note that it is not illegal to write a review of a company.

I have to question the positive reviews of Decked Out Builders LLC and here is why:…read more First, reviews are very short with at most a few sentences, there is no detail. Second, reviews are brimming over with superlatives like "very responsive", "amazing company", "could not be happier", "transforming our old deck into a masterpiece!", "They pride themselves in QUALITY work and it shows!" (notice the exclamation points for grandiosity). The "reviews" are a bit too positive to reflect the real world. NOTE that "could not be happier" vernacular was used in 2 reviews - Brian W. Oct 5, 2022 (San Francisco ? ? ?), and Jennifer B May 22, 2022 - which is pretty suspicious, perhaps written by Kristen Miller Bull Valley IL. Third, statements totally contradict my experience, like "Kristen and Tony were very responsive in answering all of our questions" where my experience was the exact opposite. "The entire process was smooth", while our reality was opposite because it was like pulling teeth with Kristen, "Incredibly helpful in making design choices", which is the real world means very high-priced add-ons that empty your wallet. Fourth, the "rah, rah" statements like "Don't hesitate and call Decked Out Builders for your next home project." which are over the top. and once again, use of the same vernacular by another "review" which said "Don't hesitate to call them!" Jennifer B who used the same vernacular as Mike R. NOTE: Through use of repetitive comments it appears that Brian W, Jennifer B, and Mike R are likely all the same person, or written by one. A scam has been presented to Yelp by one person impersonating others for the purpose of pumping up the reviews. Even if it occurred on 3 different accounts the writing was by one person. No company gets all positive reviews because that doesn't reflect society.

If the two most important factors are the quality of the finished work and the price, I honestly do not think you will find a better value. The results look fantastic, and Roberto's pricing was extremely reasonable for the amount and quality of work completed. Roberto and his team also went above and beyond to finish everything before we moved into the house. They worked evenings and weekends to keep the project moving and meet our schedule. Roberto was also generous with his time in ways that had nothing to do with the renovation, including helping me move a large, heavy box from the garage to the basement. Roberto is hardworking, dependable, and clearly takes pride in delivering a great result. We are very happy with how everything turned out, and we plan to hire Ultimate Finish Remodeling again for future projects. I would absolutely recommend Roberto and his team to anyone looking for high-quality remodeling work at an excellent value.
