Well, I can't say enough positive about Gust Renovations. They were punctual, clean, and super helpful. They did the work right, even when it meant it would take them longer, and provided advice as to how to make small improvements to increase the value of our house without spending alot of money. I haven't had the best luck finding honesty in the home improvement sector. These guys understand quality and affordability, and I highly recommend them. I've hired them to do additional work in and around our house-- more painting, replacement of floor tile, and work on our exterior fence. Will likely hire them to powerwash/stain our deck, too. They're very accessible and responsive, as well.

EDIT: I wrote a more detailed review here 11 days ago, but I got a Cease and Desist letter from a…read morelawyer representing Gust, so I took down the details they contested in the letter because I've decided I don't want to waste the time, energy and money, nor experience what I feel would be emotionally damaging to relive with this company in court. I hired Gust to install hardwood flooring in one of my rental units, which began falling apart immediately, without anyone ever occupying the unit (i.e., no furniture, just people walking through once in a while to estimate other work). I was told by Gust that it didn't need glue because it was a floating floor. However, the manufacturer's instructions were that it needed to be glued at the tongue and groove (which I verified after the install). Because that mistake was egregious, and because of how I felt about my interactions with them since planning the project in August until they installed the floor in January, I decided they didn't seem competent enough to come back and fix the floor. So at the point that I discovered that the floor had been installed incorrectly, I requested that they provide references that would prove successful work of this kind or that they subcontract to someone with references (though I recognize I obviously should've done that before I hired them). They ignored that request, instead asking that I meet with them at the unit to discuss how to fix the floor. In my opinion, that was unnecessary, since they had already admitted (in writing) to assuming incorrectly that the installation didn't require any glue even though the vendor's instructions were clear that it did require glue. They also suggested using a tape-like product in lieu of adhesive, but I contacted the vendor, who said that was inappropriate, so I decided not to allow them to do it. Instead of arguing this further with them and/or giving them a chance to redo the work (or possibly screw it up even worse), I chose to pay someone else to completely undo and redo the work they did. I've been investing in real estate for years and have dealt with many contractors. In my opinion, Gust Renovations was unprofessional and incompetent and I exhort you to find another contractor AND to ask for and thoroughly investigate references for any contractor you engage with.

Like the other reviewers here, we can't say enough great things about the outstanding painting and…read moreremodeling services we received from X-Clusive Construction. From the outset of our initial contact, we could tell that this was a truly dedicated and highly professional company. Led by Andres, the entire experience was exceptional. From the quotes developed to outline what services we'd be receiving, to the work being performed, leading up to a final walk through, we were not only guided expertly, but saw the results greatly exceed our expectations. We were especially grateful for the assistance in considering colors for each room, and the recommendations on where we needed to make some repairs that were not immediately obvious to us, as we had just moved into the house. One seldom spends much time focusing on their ceilings, but when pointed out cracks and other imperfections, it underscores the extreme value in having someone experienced guiding you in this process. To say that the whole team were perfectionists is not an understatement, because the attention to detail, from the planning leading up to the job, to covering and protecting surfaces and furniture, to the execution of the work, all care was taken to produce the amazing results we now have. In addition to the painting of our entire home, X-Clusive remodeled an entertainment room, removing carpeting, installing new flooring, repairing walls and ceiling and making it a wonderful space that before had bordered on a storage room. To say that Andres and his team went above and beyond is not an understatement. We had some minor things that needed to be addressed as work was progressing (e.g. replacing a light switch with a dimmer switch) and some hauling of unwanted furniture. Without hesitation these requests were met with a smile and a can-do response. I wish that I had before pictures for you to compare the beautiful work that they did, but sadly we didn't think of that. But rest assured, the focus on the highest quality outcome, coupled with incredibly attentive customer service, makes X-Clusive Construction the only choice for us to do work in our home again!

I had previously used Ploutis a few years ago with Gaby in charge. I requested to have her work on this project, and I was so glad to see her again. I recommend her highly!

We'll definitely call on them again and have recommended them to our friends- something we rarely do. Thanks guys! Gina & Walt

We purchased a rambling mid-50's home in Westgrove which, quite frankly, needed a lot of work…read more Walls needed removing, paint needed replacing and the work needed to be done on a tight timeline and to a high standard. One of my wife's co-workers had hired Proper Painting and Home Improvements to do their similar home and were impressed with the results. My wife hired Dave and his team and they did the job quickly and correctly with an outstanding job on both the interior and exterior paint jobs. The results COMPLETELY changed the look and feel of the house, and, after new flooring went in, they came back and did the final touch up to ensure everything remained tied together. After 8 months, we decided to convert a former utility closet into a wine cellar. It formerly housed a large boiler and fuel tanks and was, to be frank, a disaster. Dave and his team came in, surveyed the requirements and then went to work. Not only did they do the priming and painting, they repaired loose concrete bricks, built a closet for the water heater and then did an outstanding job getting new tile flooring in. Our house is what we want, and it is largely because of Dave and his team.

I used Brother's Best Construction to renovate my new home. I was excited to work with them…read morebecause I had seen their work and read positive reviews. They seemed very knowledgeable, had a lot of experience, and were willing to work with my budget and wish list. They added siding to the back of my rowhome, repaired my roof, and did some brick and mortar work on the front of the house. They also installed a heavy up of my electrical system which required permits which they were very experienced with writing and submitting. The biggest and most impressive job that they did was renovating my unfinished basement. It was a blank slate and they worked with my and my changing design to give me a one bedroom one bathroom unit that I now Airbnb. I am very happy with how everything came out and would definitely recommend their work.

On top of the quality of work was the professionalism they showed in their work, the easygoing nature that Eddie had when speaking with my parents about details and any item (English is not their primary language), and the cost of their services, which were shockingly less than others. These guys helped my parents get their dream kitchen and patio; I have a feeling they could do the same for you.

I had scheduled to meet with multiple contractors, but Erazo's was the only one who showed up on time and ready to work. Jennifer, who handles all the admin work, was a dream to work with! She promptly responded to my inquiry and showed up to my place on time with measuring tools. Then, she had Fabrizio come in to answer and discuss questions about the paint job itself. I needed a quick turnaround, and they were able to schedule me for painting the next day. Fabrizio is a perfectionist and really cares about his craft. Instead of nickle and diming like many other contractors, he even brought his own white paint to touch up parts of the trim to ensure clean lines after painting the walls light grey. I highly recommend Erazo's and will definitely work with them again for future projects!
