They have not shifted, lifted and no gaps at all, not through any of the climate changes within my home. He did an excellent job. Not to mention he was very honest and straight forward and was transparent with me through the entire process. He did my entire house in four days! He helped me find the exact tone of flooring I was looking for. He did not let me down and having them now a year later I still love them just as much as when they were installed. They look just as good today one year later as they did on day one being of installed Thank you so much Shaun.

We hired Barron's Flooring to help with a multi-part remodel of our vacation cabin in the Sierras,…read moreand we couldn't be happier with how everything turned out. The whole team was professional, friendly, and great at communicating throughout the process. They carefully removed our old flooring and countertops, then installed everything new with precision and care. JD helped us choose a beautiful Mannington laminate that works perfectly for the mountain climate, and the carpet install in the bedrooms looks and feels great too. What really impressed us was how Barron's coordinated all the other work, including painting, plumbing, electrical, and granite countertops, so we didn't have to manage all the moving parts. The whole job went smoothly and the results are fantastic. We really appreciated the one stop turnkey approach and the high quality service from start to finish. Definitely a five star experience!

Outstanding Service - Above and Beyond!…read more I rarely leave reviews, but Chris Olive Handyman Services in Pioneer, CA, truly deserves five stars! I found Chris and his coworker/partner Aryiel online--not through a referral--so I knew hiring them could be a risk. From the very first interaction, Aryiel set the bar high. She responded within 24 hours, was professional, knowledgeable, smart and incredibly easy to work with. My situation was complicated: I needed maintenance help about 30 minutes away in West Point, CA, at a house full of tenants while I was over seven hours away and couldn't be there in person. Despite the distance and challenges, Chris and Aryiel were responsive, punctual, and so skilled. They handled everything efficiently and professionally, keeping me informed every step of the way. I worked mostly with Aryiel, but it was clear that she and Chris make an amazing team. They went above and beyond to make sure everything was handled perfectly, exceeding my expectations in every way. I can't thank them enough for their hard work and dedication. If you need trustworthy, professional, and highly capable handyman services in Pioneer, West Point, or the surrounding areas, I highly recommend Chris Olive Handyman Services--you won't be disappointed!

After years of talking about it, we finely had our 1979-era bathrooms remodeled. We tried to act as…read moreour own contractors but felt overwhelmed with the process, so decided to check out Brown's. We walked away after our first visit to their store knowing that we'd made the right decision. We needed someone to guide us through the project decision-making. Darci fit that bill perfectly! She was so friendly and patient with us, showing us a variety of options of products in different price ranges and styles. She listened when we said that we didn't want to spend so much on an item. We live in Jackson, so it was very convenient to stop by their store. Eddie was a pleasure to work with in our home. His work is top-notch and he cleaned up the space at the end of each work day. He works hard and efficiently. Both Eddie and Darci communicated with us well, are honest, and organized. Our project was started and finished when they projected it would be. We know that we might have paid a bit less if we'd acted as our own contractor, but I am so glad that we didn't. We paid for their professional services, and it was worth it! We love our new bathrooms!!

BIG HUGE MISTAKE hiring Randy and Nick Babcock to prepare design plans and build our custom home…read more Lots of lip service, VERY POOR QUALITY WORK, "I don't care" attitude, he used materials everywhere that should have been returned or discarded and much more. PLANS ~. 6'8" door drawn on a 5' wall, but assured by Nick it would work. ~ 6'8" attic entry door placed where it would hit the sloping ceiling when opened a few inches Again, assured by Nick it was fine. Not true! Resulted in moving the staircase, a mud room door over and reducing the size of the laundry room and nook by 1'4" to a 5'8" depth. ~ Unclear dimensions that caused errors by framers. SLAB AND PREP ~ Randy used minimal workers, some inexperienced, and DID NOT have the proper tools or equipment. ~ We pointed out missing electrical conduit to the island and living room one day before pouring concrete. ~ No clean out was installed by the plumber, as indicated in the plans and per code. Randy never tried to fix this mistake. Rather, he said we can remove the toilets and snake the pipes if they get clogged. Now he said it's our problem. ~ Air gap placed in the middle of the master bathroom floor instead of within the wall. Randy said he didn't know why it was there and never tried to correct it. ~ Plumbing that sits outside the 2x4 sill base. ~ Monolithic slab (means one poor) took 4-separate pours, resulting in 6-cracked and uneven cold joints. No relief joints anywhere in the slab. All pours scheduled in the late morning on very hot days. According to the concrete provider, Randy had no intention of scheduling trucks for one pour. He didn't have the manpower. ~ Forms failed while pouring concrete that left one side of the foundation out of square. ~ Several high and low areas on top of the slab, that requires floating the entire surface. Randy told us this is our problem. ~ Dozens of cracks throughout the top and sides - with rust seeping out, spalling, honey combing and chipping. ~ Questionable rebar reinforcements, rebar properly raised off vapor barrier and dobie placement. BUILD ~ Base sills extend over the concrete slab up to 1" in areas, resulting in 20% loss of support in the framing and exposure to termites and the elements. Randy assured us this is normal and there are no termites where we live. We're in the mountains! Termites are in all the downed and dead trees! ~ Base sills recesses up to 1" in areas from the concrete slab. Randy said he'd cut off the excess, but never did and started sheathing. Some sheathing bows out over the concrete. ~ Trusses, APPROVED by Randy and Nick Babcock, arrived incorrect, blocking the entire entrance to the attic. Up to 40% of the trusses will need to be redesigned, reengineered and rebuilt to correct their huge mistake. His fix was to once again move the mud room door over and reduce the size of the laundry room and nook by at least another foot! We want a laundry room, not laundry closet. Nor do we want a door in the middle of the nook. He did not want to and would not correct his own error. ~ He used a lot of poor quality wood, that he should have discarded, even when we told him not to use it. ~ Did not refuse damaged materials. We believe he would have used this material had we not called the vendor to come pick it up. Randy got mad at us for doing this. ~ Shims used in many areas due to the uneven slab, then he filled the gaps with a water soluble caulking that dissolved when it got wet. ~ Hilti Anchors not nailed completely through sills and into the concrete on a load bearing wall. ~ 2x6 boards not nailed or toenailed to sills on a load bearing wall. ~ Used 2-2x4's as a header above a door that sits within a 6" load bearing wall. ~ 2x4" used in place of a 2x6" in the external. ~ Cuts made into exterior 2x6's when the exterior wall began to bow from the weight of the trusses. ~ No 2x6 support where exterior sheathing lined up. ~ Incorrect nailing patterns and nails used throughout. JOB SITE ~ Refused to clean up the mess he and his crew made when he and three other workers came to pick up all their tools. ~ It took us six hours to clean up and discard plastic bottles, cans, beer bottles, cups, bottle caps, cigarette butts, broken Bic lighters, empty boxes, plastic, empty oil containers, garbage bags, bags of garbage, plastic straps, plastic wrap, building materials, broken ladders, hardware, scrap wood, and other garbage. ~ Knowingly dripped toxic pneumatic tool lubricant on the dirt in two areas that is 30 feet from an open well head. When we started finding more sloppy work being done, got no reply to texts or emails, and no longer wanted lip service, we confronted Randy He bullied us, tried to intimidate us, accused us of sabotaging his faulty work and would say, "I don't know" or "it's not my problem." Then, asked for two more draws when foundation, framing, sheathing, and truss work is sloppy, incorrect and not completed.

We chose them for a deck job. Nick came out and made a good first impression and seemed…read moreknowledgeable. Although the estimate was on the higher end, we chose them to build our deck. One guy showed up off and on to build the deck. He was not part of their A team of workers and IMO, Babcock set him up for failure... the level of the work was over his head, there was little communication, and Babcock blamed him, bad mouthed him and promised to get the project back on track several times, but they didn't make things right - when Randy and Nick showed up the few times that they did, they acknowledged the issues, always promising resolution... but when you hire an expert, you don't expect, as the customer, to have to be responsible for fixing or coming up with solutions and compromises because of their failures - for example, they forgot to order post sleeves, so we have to add two weeks to the schedule. Then post sleeve dimension ends up bigger than what we asked for, but instead of looking at how skirts and caps are affected by this ordering screwup, and fixing, they tried to make the smaller size fit. The result: skirts are extending out over open space the space between edge of deck and post skirts is inconsistent, edges don't line up... honestly, we got to a point where we just said, please clean up your mess and leave. We'll fix (and pay additional) to finish the work that you cannot or don't care about getting right. I don't think they care about turning and burning customers - also if you paid for supplies as part of the estimate/quote, don't assume they will leave those supplies behind - I would never hire them again or recommend to anyone else. We were completely disappointed - they care more about making money and less about quality. Not a good company.

Had our rental home installed with flooring in 4 rooms (laundry room, family room, kitchen, dinning…read moreroom). This is when David was in the store and there was a diffrent installer. At this time the pricing was GREAT we prefer to shop local and support local small businesses. However; We're finding several issues with this install, the molding is coming away from the walls, we've found bad patch work, and even manufacturers defects.It is too late for us to have these issues corrected therefore, I'm informing folks about this so you can be very VERY DILIGENT In inspecting your installs. I had an estimate done in our family home just a few weeks ago for 2 rooms (dinning room and kitchen) the cost for this install is very close to our whole rental install. So shop around.

We called to get a quote and had an appointment set quickly. David came out to our home on a…read moreSaturday to get measurements, this is rare!!! During our consultation we looked at different samples of flooring. We were educated on the differences between the types of flooring we were interested in which were, hardwood, luxury vinyl and carpeting. After learning about the differences in flooring, we narrowed our decision down to carpet and luxury vinyl. We received the quotes for both carpeting & luxury vinyl fairly quick. They were both reasonably priced which we were very happy with and we decided on the luxury vinyl. We originally were going to go with a pattern that had some grey hues to it but did some research online and found a deeper color vinyl that we fell in love with. We called David and asked if he had that specific tile available. He didn't have it in stock so he ordered it for us!!!! We were very happy that he was able to accommodate our request. David arrived on time the day of installation. The rest is history. We will be using Sierra Carpet to change the flooring in our remaining rooms, hallway and staircase. We bought our home 4 years ago now and were ready for a change. The carpet we had was 9 years old. Now we have the most beautiful flooring in our living area. See the transformation of the room in the pictures. David your work is amazing, we haven't stopped talking about how the work you did has changed the look and feel of our family room. Thank You and Keep up the great work!

On Wednesday, July 25, my husband and I, along with our young grandkids, were enjoying lunch on the…read morepatio of the restaurant at 49er Village RV Resort. We were on our way to Black Chasm Caverns. It was about 11:55am when our lunch was disrupted by an ear-splitting, high-pitched sound. Seconds later, there was another and then another. By this time the grandkids had their hands clapped over their ears. I got up to find the source. Just out of sight, off the end of the patio, I saw a man, using an electric saw, cutting a large sheet metal duct, resulting in another ear-splitting whine. I asked a nearby worker if they were going to continue to work there. He said, "Yes." I asked him if they had to do that right now, at lunch time, next to the restaurant, when it was clearly a level of noise that required ear protection. He firmly replied, "Yes we do. We are on a deadline." No apology. He seemed annoyed by my question. I went into the restaurant and was told by the young woman behind the counter there was nothing she could do. She pointed to the office. I went to the office and talked to another woman, who told me that the workers are contracted and she could do nothing. We gathered up our food and left, in the midst of another ear-splitting whine. We had planned to come by for coffee and ice cream later, on the way home. We changed our minds and had our coffee and ice cream elsewhere, just in case the contractors weren't done making noise. I have never encountered such a dismissive attitude by a contractor in the midst of an operating business.
