The owner of Blue Line was very helpful though that process and gained my trust so much that I have always looked to this business for any home remodel/renovation projects. This company is trust worthy, detailed, fair with pricing, and contracts with pleasant people who enjoy doing their job! Justin from Blue Line had a vision for our kitchen that I couldn't see for myself until the project was completed. I am in LOVE with my new kitchen!! I will always seek Blue Line out for future business!

Matt Ritchie took the time to give us a detailed summary of the services that Blue Line Remodeling…read moreand Construction could provide. He did an excellent job of listening to our concerns and worries to create a plan for updating our home with a new roof, insulation, new soffits and gutters, that fit our budget. He came to our home several times during the project to ensure that the project was completed with minimal mess and in a timely manner. His motto is, "We leave the yard cleaner than when it was when we started." We appreciated that when we phoned him with questions he was available to take our calls at the time of the call. I plan on using this company again with future projects.

I think this was very bold of her to assume how much I could afford. Here is the e-mail exchange. Lana, We are not going to be a good fit for your project. We are a high-end remodeling/handyman company. Our pricing would be expensive for this size of project. I apologize for the error on my part. Thank you for your inquiry of Pennings Handyman. Barb Here is my response: Dear Barb, I feel your e-mail was on the snobby side, and frankly I don't think elitism is a good look for your company. The stairs that I was referring to were for her basement and I was willing to pay $1,500.00 to $2,000.00. But apparently since that is too little for this company to even consider, I do appreciate you letting me know how this company thinks of their potential customers. Also, I have a second house that needed major work on, and I was considering your firm, but again, thank you for letting me know what your priorities ($$) are. Best wishes Lana

Memorial Day, 9:30 AM. Hubby finds we have a leak in our plumbing, it has been leaking for…read moreprobably a day. My husband shuts off the water. I proceeded looking for plumbers. I called our son in law to see if he knew of one, "DC Plumbing, they're real good!" I called and sent an email. Panicking, I looked for more emergency service plumbers. I called a total of 5, one actually answered the phone. I received a quote,, it was 10:45 now and I was quoted late afternoon early evening. I said I would call them back if I had no luck finding someone else. I checked my email and there was a response from DC Plumbing. The owner was very apologetic that he couldn't get out to our home that day, but he could come first thing the next day. At that point, it was good enough, so we waited. I am so glad we did. We saved money by not using an emergency service, and his workers were here right when he said they would be. They were in and out in roughly 10 minutes and did a wonderful job. The owner was extremely thorough, I sent pictures of the leak to help (as asked). Promptness responding as well as service by great employees! Hard to find these days for sure. I have already sent their information to a few friends. I wouldn't call anyone else. By the way, the other 24 hour service plumbers, never responded back until the next morning, except for one, I never heard from them.

We hired GLM Renovations before Covid hit, to install a new bathroom w/ shower stall, in our unfinished basement, then tear out and put in a new main floor main bath with shower in tub. For the latter, most plumbing moved, all fixtures relocated. I designed everything, planned, purchased but everything that could go wrong did. There were forgivable issues that happened to the contractor along the way which I forgave...a lot. Major illness with surgery for the owner, a pandemic and consequent work cessation, injury to the owner due to her own carelessness, another injury w/ infection to the owner due to her own carelessness and self-neglect. Then, I was just plain duped, ignored and trod upon. This is the contractor for you if you want work done where the twenty-something 'builders' say they can do it all....wrong. The bathrooms are there and have all the pieces. Everything needs tweaking, reinstalling, leveling, sanding, caulking, grout fixed. I'm fixing every surface. I have extra tile for a future tear-out and reinstall. I fear what else may have gone wrong if I weren't there all the time. They were unprofessional, dirty, messy, didn't protect workspace unless prompted, disorganized. New tile floors are uneven, 2nd bath grout looked dirty and 10 different shades. Luckily I used Mapei grout stain to go darker and evened it out. I removed all of their weird dirty yellow sanded caulk at all corners, and ordered a proper color of Mapei caulk and did all vertical and horizontal corners around tub again. They didn't install a toe-kick trim I gave to them. They didn't install two custom cabinet end panels that we had been waiting on, because apparantly 'no one had told anyone about' them and they retro-fitted them. It was crooked snd peeling away. I had to straighten it and clamp it. The new drywall had to be resanded, spackled and painted because of visible joint lines, I had all light & plumbing fixtures ready & cabinets ready and they couldn't measure and add vertical dimensions so the medicine cabinet, which the business owner talked me into, was at a very wrong height and the door threatened to shatter the glass shades above. They switched the hot and cold water on one sink. They installed the shower stall with the panels backwards and I had to have them take it out and put in an entirely new one. I had a 25 minute conversation with him about how I thought it was not correct in the first place when they dry fitted it and showed me. Both bathrooms are not on soft water, which we have, and is apparent and completely accessible. New tub, gouged; light fixture electrical box put in wrong place because they didn't ask, talk, discuss, sketch, design, plan ever and the owner never supervised. I've had electricians and plumbers in. The window they installed works very well, nothing leaks, has shorted or is on fire. I won't list the 87 other little things that came up to make this a truly harrowing experience, even with the Covid pandemic removed from all of this. They built walls, the pex plumbing was done generally correctly except for the supply lines through the wall for both toilets were a mess. Don't let the owner sell you on tiled bathrooms unless you want inexperienced hackers to make your new construction look like **** and you like grout lines 1/4" wide, tiles cut very poorly, patterns not following through. She talks a good game but does not follow through and don't let her talk you out of filing for building permits or hiring licensed electricians and plumbers. Her people don't really know much. Her only adult person with any sense and tile specialist, moved away during the summer, So when she came back to finish the job of our bathrooms, she left it in the hands of idiots instead of putting all of her attention to us since we had been waiting and waiting and waiting and waiting through injuries and Covid patiently without a word from her for longer than we should have expected since she had a lot of her money for a really long time. The bathrooms were not connected to heat ducts, I had to point that out at the end and they were able to fix that. They removed and drywalled the bad medicine cabinet. They are not decorators to say the least. I'm making it work and anyone is going to look and say it's great. Classic bad experience which is too bad because I liked the owner on a personal level. It's a badly run business. Plans weren't made for efficient use of time, space or materials. if this is typical I don't see how she ever makes any money.

Our wood pellet stove quit working, and my husband worked on it for a week or 2 to try to find the…read moreproblem. He finally gave up and looked online for someone to repair it. Apparently he used a site called Home Advisor. When someone from Call the Repairman called him, he was told "I paid 9 dollars to get your information so you better use me." We did end up allowing him to come out. Even though we booked several days ahead, an email was sent right before our appointment saying that if we canceled with less than 24 hours notice, we would need to pay the $120 trip fee. My husband told him that we know how to do 2 things with the stove: trip all the snap switches and clean it. So he proceeds to spend 45 minutes cleaning it! He ended up spending 3 hours cleaning and messing around with the stove only to tell us one of the motors was burned out and we could replace it ourselves. He didn't even remove it for us. $250 and the stove is still not working.

First of all the techs work was very precise and looked good but a little to precise because when…read moreit takes you four plus hours to build three steps for a deck something's not right. When I called originally I asked the owner to give me a quote on how much it would cost to build a deck I gave him all the information from the deck kit that we bought from Menards and he said it would be two or three days, so I figured on three days because every other contractor I talked to said three days. The very first day they send one guy to do the job and he said they didn't include some brackets that he needed I said I would get them but he said he would get them but instead the owner sent him back to another job to finish it up come to find out the brackets he needed was the last step of the first days of work so right off the bat they're behind on the job after making excuse after excuse they put in three days of work to only have the deck mostly done but no post, or spindles or handrails installed. The tech didn't bother to tell the owner my deck was incomplete and he didn't know it was until he finally called me back four days later when I told him ok we've paid for the three days that you quoted me when are you going to finish he informed me I would have to pay for another days labor at almost $500. The owner Steve Dennison didn't try to work with us on this and only made excuses as to why it wasn't done basically if you go with this company get a quote in writing because they will tell you one price and charge you more and the only review they will put on their website is good ones because the owner does nothing but lie and try to sucker you in and make more money!!!!!
