I'm glad I went with them because they ended up doing a fantastic job - everyone was extremely professional/communicative and the entire team was on time every day for the week they worked on the project. I highly recommend Eli and his team for custom built-ins! We think it turned out amazing and are excited to add more books to our library!

Not only did he execute our vision flawlessly, he made improvements and helpful suggestions along the way. His attention to detail is one of the many things we appreciate about his work. And moreover, we came to develop a deep professional trust in him as he was managing the project while we were across the country. He was communicative throughout, came in on budget and under the timeline, and exceeded our expectations. We cannot recommend Martin more highly!

I just opened a new game store in College Park, Maryland. I needed new flooring, the walls were…read morecovered in slat racking that needed removal, and I needed the space painted. I talked to Eric and he was fantastic! He was able to get his team in quickly, the work was performed far beyond anything I'd expected, and both he and his on-site foreman were very responsive. We had two challenges, both of which Eric and his team overcame with speed, quality delivery, and excellent customer service. We were working on a tight timetable, so I was receiving store fixtures while construction was ongoing. Eric and his team were able to work around this without any problems. Second, my initial flooring choice became unavailable between the time I selected it and ordering. When this happened, Eric and I went down to Home Depot together and found another option that looked better, was higher quality, and cost less. I cannot recommend Eric and A&E construction enough! 100% would use again. In fact, I have some upcoming work that I need to do on my home. I bid this job to five other companies, but I'll just be reaching out to Eric directly on that one.

Eric and his team transformed our house into a dream home. Eric is honest and reliable. The work is…read moretop notch and was done within the agreed upon timeline. His team is very nice and the work is amazing. We had 21 different quotes and hands down felt comfortable with Eric. He won't try to price hike after a contract begins, provides detailed updates, and quickly understands what you want. Our project was as close to a gut renovation as you could get without demoing the whole place. The project turned out amazing and was done within 2 months. We moved walls, changed flooring, the entire kitchen, stairs and rail system, new ceilings, paint, trim, and so much more. On top of the great work, he provides a warranty on all his work. I highly recommend A&E for any project. I won't use any other contractor besides them.

HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!!!

Last year, I needed some repairs done to my condo, including some wall and flooring work when I had…read moreto replace old heating-A/C convectors. Weder and team did a wonderful job. They closed all the holes in the walls (no more air coming in) where the old convectors were located; they repaired the flooring so that it looked seamless; and they installed baseboards to mask the gaps left by the new convectors, which were a slightly different size than the previous ones. (The convectors were installed by a different company, so they coordinated with them nicely). They also installed a brand-new lighting fixture on the bedroom ceiling (lots of concrete drilling involved), hung a metal shelf in the bathroom, and closed all the holes in the kitchen left by the previous contractor when the kitchen was remodeled. No more mice! Wonderful service, punctual, and would happily call again for anything else I may need.

This review has been a long time coming, and I meant to write it 4 months ago -- but life happens…read more Wow, where do I start? First and foremost, we are incredibly grateful that we happened to connect with Anthony from VR Home Renovation by chance. Our water heater burst and flooded our home. Since this was on the third floor, it caused damage to all the other floors -- including the subfloors, ceilings, walls, and electrical systems. We were absolutely devastated when we couldn't find anyone available to help. The options we found were either extremely expensive or had no availability at all. After tirelessly searching and calling around, we finally connected with Anthony. He provided us with a bid the same day and was able to start the very next day! We were blown away by his responsiveness and professionalism. From that moment on, he kept us informed about every step, providing clear timelines and updates, requesting permits and taking care of everything. He and his team were incredibly organized and efficient. Thanks to Anthony, our stressful situation was made so much easier. We didn't have to hire anyone else -- he took care of everything, and at a very reasonable price. Our flooring, which had to be specially ordered, was originally expected to take three months, but Anthony did the impossible and got it to us within weeks. We are truly thankful for Anthony and his team. You are in GREAT hands with them -- they made a difficult time so much more manageable, and we couldn't recommend them more! 1000% we would hire them back.

From start to finish,…read moretheir communication, project management, quality of work, and ability to stay on schedule were outstanding. H&C was not the least expensive quote I received, but they also weren't the most expensive. In my experience, the value they delivered more than justified the investment. One of the things I found particularly valuable was the project management app they use. It made it easy to manage the project from end to end, stay informed, review decisions, and keep everything organized in one place. The design phase did take some time, but it was time very well spent. Once we finalized the design, everything moved at a great pace, and the execution was smooth and well coordinated. This was actually my second project with H&C Construction this year, and I am once again very pleased with the results. The fact that I chose to work with them a second time says a lot about my confidence in their team and the quality of their work. I would highly recommend H&C Construction to anyone considering a kitchen remodel. They are professional, organized, communicative, and committed to delivering quality work--and they made what can be a stressful process feel very well managed.

Worst part: charging us for things like moving the fridge AND putting it back. If we want the ice maker reconnected, it's more than $100! Insane. And our house is all electric (no gas) but they're charging us to reconnect the gas line! I can't imagine how much people overlook when choosing this company. It's too bad, too, because they were our first choice. Not anymore.

Blue Collar Scholars Completely Transformed Our Home -- 5 Stars Isn't Enough!…read more We had an outstanding experience with Blue Collar Scholars on two projects -- a stone porcelain patio and a stone front walkway with a sitting wall -- and I would absolutely recommend them. From the initial planning through final completion, the entire process was professional, organized, and transparent. The pricing was very reasonable for the quality of work, everything stayed on schedule, and both projects were completed in approximately three weeks. One thing that was especially important to us was working with a properly licensed and fully insured contractor. Blue Collar Scholars gave us confidence that the work was being handled by a professional company that takes responsibility, safety, and quality seriously. Doug Brzezinski and Andrea Ortega were excellent to work with throughout the process. Communication was clear, expectations were well managed, and we always felt that the project was in good hands. A special recognition goes to Ulises, who was truly the architect and mastermind behind the work on-site. His experience, attention to detail, and craftsmanship were outstanding. Just as importantly, he provided thoughtful and trustworthy advice throughout the project. Rather than simply doing what was easiest, he took the time to explain options and recommend what he believed would produce the best long-term result. That level of integrity and expertise really stood out. The six-man crew -- Ulises, Abner, both Samuels, Angel, and Gabriel -- was exceptional. They arrived on time, worked incredibly hard every day, were polite and respectful, and clearly took great pride in their work. It was impressive to see how efficiently and professionally the entire crew worked together. Service Requested: Stone porcelain patio and stone walkway with sitting wall Quality: Outstanding craftsmanship and attention to detail Value: Excellent -- very reasonably priced for the quality of work and service The transformation of our property is remarkable. The new patio, walkway, and sitting wall look fantastic, and I am confident this work will add significantly more value to our home than what we invested in the project. Professional people, excellent workmanship, fair pricing, trustworthy advice, and an exceptionally hardworking crew. Blue Collar Scholars delivered on everything they promised. I would definitely use them again and highly recommend Doug, Andrea, Ulises, Abner, both Samuels, Angel, Gabriel, and the entire Blue Collar Scholars team.

And then there's the HOA who wants to make sure all violations are corrected before the new home owner moves in. I get it. But my timeline is TIGHT! Miguel says they are BUSY! Still, he was able to accommodate my small projects & repairs to meet my closing timeline. I 'refreshed' my master bathroom, but didn't do such a great job. So, David smoothed out the walls, plugged the holes from the old mirrors, and repainted. CHECK! My mailbox had the gangster lean so he put in a new one. The winds have not been kind to my shutters so he secured them all. AND, the fascia around the garage was rotting so PVC was used for replacements. ALL with time to spare! Thanks again! They will always be my go-to contractors.

They did an absolutely incredible job on our bathroom remodel, and the quality was worth every penny. Lawrence and his crew were fantastic from demo day to the final finishing touches. The tiling and vanity installation look amazing. Lawrence has excellent communication skills and kept everything strictly on track with our contract. Plus, when uncontrollable plan changes popped up, he was incredibly accommodating and offered great solutions. They truly brought our vision to life. Highly recommend, and we will definitely be using them again!

Amazing contractor!!!…read more Lawrence and his crew did a complete renovation of our basement to build an apartment for my parents. From the design through completion, it was a great experience. I found them here on Yelp and I obtained 3 quotes for the job. I had the quotes reviewed by an independent contractor who told me L&R's quote was what the job should reasonably cost. I called 4 references who all had a similar and very positive experience. Lawrence always communicated with me about schedule which had not been the case with other contractors. They were there working on my job every day, not showing up once or twice a week like some others. Any fluctuation to schedule or budget was discussed and agreed upon by both parties. We had a couple of unexpected plumbing delays but that was due to the original build not being up to the current code. I changed direction on a couple of design decisions and Lawrence was right there with me. The work was exceptional and the end product is amazing. I have had the nightmare contractor experience so was very cautious. This was exactly as the process should be and I plan to have them back in the fall to do more work. I give them my highest recommendation!
