GR Construction is a small outfit run by a guy named Dagny Mendez, who goes by Daniel. Daniel is a highly energetic and perceptive construction generalist who I have used on a few jobs on a small portfolio of rental properties.
The first job was to float a new layer of hardwood flooring over an old layer, with new soundproofing material added in. I hired Daniel for this on the strength of a reference for his previous flooring work. He went over time on the project (like the rest of us, all contractors seem to take a rosy view on project timelines) but he kept it within my moderate budget. There were a lot of precise cuts needed on the existing floorboards, and a few flooring folks told me these were hard to pull off. Daniel nailed them.
Since the flooring job, Daniel has performed various odd jobs for me with concrete, framing, painting, and basic electrical (replacing outlets and switches). He even helped me move house! I will definitely use him again and would be happy to provide a reference. read more
