We contracted with Proper Work to build a two-story addition to our home in last year. This was a…read moremajor, 8-month project, beginning in April and ending in December 2022. Engaging Joey Edwards and his company, Proper Work, to build our addition was probably the best real estate decision we have ever made. Joey Edwards and his crew were innovative, superbly coordinated, and very conscious of staying within our original estimate. Joey assisted and advised us with every detail along the way and executed some ideas that we hadn't thought of in the beginning, like our patio and French doors. The project included a new woodstove, hardwood flooring, a finished basement, and painting. Joey put us in touch with our excellent woodstove company--a great recommendation. (I have reviewed this company, Safe and Warm, elsewhere on Yelp.) Joey also helped with the labyrinth of city codes and inspections. I think we had a total of 12 (?) inspections; maybe more. Our home is a 140-year-old miner's cottage in a historic district, so we also needed to comply with historic preservation regulations and remain respectful of its historical character. Joey and his crew were in our home for 8 months, but all went smoothly. Our dogs and cats even came to look forward having the crew here and they were all great with the animals. The stairwell rail had to be low enough to prevent cats explorating through the railing and the crew took that into consideration. The cats figured a way around it, but no fault of Proper Work--that is just the nature of cats. Our addition has increased the value and comfort of our home exponentially. We had to make the decision to expand our home or move elsewhere, and we clearly made the right decision, with the help of Proper Work.

Along with carpenters Adam Christopher and Mark, the team has worked diligently to preserve the historic integrity and structural stability of the buildings, always going above and beyond expectations. I can recommend this company without reservation.

He also is a great communicator, is pro-active, goes the extra mile, and does what he says he will do! We had many unexpected issues pop up in our kitchen and bath re-model as our condo is in a very old building PLUS we were on a tight timeline as we had folks coming to stay at our condo and Matt somehow managed to work thru it all and meet our deadline. (He may have gained a few gray hairs but he did it!!) We live in Charleston, SC - so we were 2000+ miles away while the renovation was going on and had complete confidence in his work. He was always available to anwser questions and always was so professional and easy to talk to. We cannot recommend Matt enough! We wish we could replicate him here in SC!!!

SCAM ALERT: This man stole a great deal of money from us. We paid $16k of $20k worth of work (which…read morewe already thought was a super high price for a bathroom/basement remodel but he told us he's the best) and I came home after a month and all he did was gut my basement. We asked him to replace my water filter and it took him a week to do and it was leaking everywhere. My bathtub needed to be completely re-set because he installed it un-leveled which would have resulted in a messed up tile job. My window was improperly installed, it looks horrible, and he used untreated wood, resulting in serious leakage when it rains due to the wrong material and improper installation (which he claims he was "just doing what he could", last I recall we paid him well for a professional job, not to just make do), and to top it all off, my insurance paid me $7,000 (the bathroom was being remodeled due to flooding), I paid this jerk all $7,000 and not a single thing was done to my bathroom. He STOLE MY INSURANCE MONEY aka committed fraud. He claims my insurance company and him had a separate deal which is absolutely insane because I was in contact with my insurance company the whole time and they agreed he stole it from me and to try and get it back. So on top of that $7k paid to him he explained he needed to do the basement first. After removing my stairs with 0 intention of re-installing them, 0 work got done on my basement. My basement flooded in February, we fired him July 2nd as nothing got done. We are now talking to a lawyer after telling Quick Premium he owes us AT LEAST $5k (he did a fixed bid estimate to make it impossible for us to track out money). To make a long story short, TROY QUICK IS A THEIF AND DOES NOT PAY HIS EMPLOYEES. RUN DO NOT WALK IN THE OPPOSITE DIRECTION OF THIS MAN. Additionally, he was incredibly rude to my family during the entire process. When we confronted Troy with a long drawn out Xcel spread sheet asking where our money went, he walked out of my house saying "fuck this shit" and tried to walk off the job. We had to ask for police escort for him to get his tools because this man has bad anger issues. We later found out HE WAS USING OUR MONEY FOR OTHER JOBS because he is terrible at keeping track of money. DO NOT TRUST QUICK PREMIUM. Also, because he doesn't even have a reliable plumber, we had to bring in my friend who is a plumbers apprentice, and have a licensed plumber sign off on the work. Troy also never pulled a single permit as per our request. We have now had to hire an entirely new set of workers which is extremely frustrating. I have not had a working shower in my house since February and have been showering at gyms when I have the chance which is extremely inconvenient and not cheap. Wish I could do 0 stars. I could say so much more about how unprofessional this guy is but honestly it's making me get upset to even type this out. After totally screwing me over he told me he would go down to turquoise lake to hand pick river rocks (which is not legal), buy a special saw & make the River rocks into siding for my house. He offered to do so many jobs yet couldn't even complete the one he started, and then after all that he snapped at us and said he never had time for my job to begin with...after making false promises for more jobs & requesting more deposits.
