Let me start by saying that i know the contractors in this area are VERY busy, and finding one that…read morecan get you into their schedule is a task in and of itself. Finding a good one is probably even more difficult. But let's address the issue of professionalism.... I called Avalon with a multi-faceted project that needs to happen at my house. Floor joist replacement, porch cap, framing in a roof over my front porch, and then reroofing the whole house. Not exactly a small job. Talked to Patrick, explained the work that needs to be done. He said he would call to set up an appointment the next morning when he was near his calendar. Didn't call the next morning, so i called him. We set up an appointment for the next week. He never showed. Didn't call. Just didn't show. So, while my review is not a review of the quality of work this company does, it IS a review of their complete lack of professionalism. I can only guess that this lack of professionalism extends to the work they do.

I had a very serious structural problem at my newly purchased home. Mike Riddle came to give me a…read morequote. I had 3 or 4 other people look at the job, but I didn't feel comfortable with them. I called Mike again and he took the time to come out again and look at the project and explain in detail what was wrong and what he was going to do to fix it. For the amount of work and seriousness of this project, Mike's price was more than fair. He emailed me a detailed list of what work would be performed and the total. He was easy to reach by phone, always on time and just a really good, stand up guy.The house was built incorrectly from the beginning in 1977. Avalon had to come in and cut the basement floor, pour concrete, put in a new foundation pole, let it cure for a week, then jack up the house from the basement, put in a new header, put the house back down on the new pole/header. Then go to the first floor and again, jack the entire second floor up, tear out old warped header, put in two new headers in two different areas and then set the entire second floor back down on the new headers. Also, the subfloor was warped so they ripped out the subfloor, straightened everything out and put in new 1/2" plywood in the areas needed. Very, very professional. This was a very hard job and as you can imagine, I was worried beyond belief that I made the wrong choice in buying this home. Mike at Avalon made me feel secure.

Let's start with the positives: The owner of Detroit Build came out and looked at the job and was…read morevery helpful. The workers who came into our house were very kind and friendly. They covered all of our floors leading up to the bathroom (remodel). The completed job matches our original plan. They were able to make adjustments when things were not going according to plan. They were able to obtain all the materials we picked out. Anytime we reached out to our Project Manager he was able to respond and give us information in a timely manner. Since we don't have a garage, they were able to provide us with a trailer which held all of our materials on site. Negatives: They gutted the bathroom as planned. When they laid the floor, they never covered it with paper so they continued to remodel the bathroom walking on the newly installed floor. Seems like not a big issue, but it's winter and they were dragging in dust, snow, ice and salt onto our new black floor. All of the debris was falling onto the new floor. Due to the fact that multiple people are working on multiple jobs, mistakes were made and workers had to come back out to fix errors made. Part of why we went with Detroit Build is because they had a design team. We were still required to go out and find the materials on our own. Our assumption was they would take care of this step. While our Project Manager did get back to us, we had to reach out weekly to get updates. At the end of the project the only cleaning that was done was construction cleanup. We were disappointed to find out that they did not have a cleaning company to take care of this job. It wasn't a clean and pristine feeling that you would expect with a remodel. We had to call and get a "deep clean" on our newly remodeled bathroom.

Detroit Build remodeled our main bathroom and delivered a good job; communication before and during…read morethe project was excellent; towards the end of the months-long project it tapered off a bit (probably because the contractors got used to us working from home and somebody always being there). A slight miscommunication occurred likely in the quoting stage already, where I may not have picked up on a bidet seat being installed where I wasn't expecting that to happen. But that would also explain the higher re-quote that I approved, so there's that. We came to like it anyways and are happy with it. Kevin was a great Project Manager; whenever I saw something that needed improvement, Kevin took care of it. Their Showroom in Royal Oak to pick designs / tiles etc. is definitely a plus. The job was billed exactly as quoted; if there is something I would recommend doing would be a formal, final walk-through at the end of the project. There are a few very minor things I would have wanted to at least discuss or have some advice on. Overall I'd highly recommend Detroit Build and would work with them on a future job any time.

I have nothing but praise for this company. I'm moving this week and my fireplace stopped working,…read morethe buyer for my condo required it to be in working condition so I set about trying to find a place to call. A neighbor recommended this place, I called today and they were able to fit me in today as well. Mike showed up and was able to diagnose the problem, clean the fireplace and fix the problem, and was in and out of my house within an hour. The cost was $400, when I called on the phone they said costs usually started at $200, but this was fine by me because I believe he had to replace a part and do a bit more work to get the fireplace to work. They do take credit cards and there are no fees to use one, also. Based on this experience I would absolutely use Ace Fireplace again if I was having fireplace issues.

Marsha and Rich were more than accommodating and listened to our requests and answered our questions Regarding value, their quotes were in the middle range to high, but we've learned in the past, you get what you pay for. Low bids are usually associated with cutting corners and low quality. Our only complaint, if you can call it a complaint. is that they are very busy and it is difficult to get on their schedule.

I needed the work done urgently before new glass was installed, and Nik came out right away. After seeing the situation, he got started immediately and had everything he needed in his trailer.

Nik is professional, reliable, and clearly skilled in what he does. He also cleaned up thoroughly when he was done. I couldn't be happier with the experience.

He did what he said he was going to do and was here when he said he would be. I hired him because I thought his insight into how to efficiently work around "old basement" problems and come up with really practical solutions was excellent, and that proved itself to be true throughout the renovation. Our timeline was what I expected it to be. They took great pride in their work and were very careful. The finished product is beautiful. I was comfortable having Nik and Julian in my house and they were polite and kind. I will be hiring Nik again and will recommend him to friends and family. Thanks, Nik!
