I am so disappointed by Barry's quality of work and professionalism. We requested Barry take out…read moreour tub from the master bathroom, and replace with a tile shower with sliding glass door. Save your money and stress, go anywhere else. Summary: - Unable to get in contact with Barry by email or phone multiple times - Didn't communicate what he needed from us until he arrived on site - Doesn't have any sort of pricing structure; makes up pricing on the spot - Quality of work is terrible; grout starting to crack after 1 week (didn't even turn on shower in this time) - Barry broke our glass door for shower that WE paid for, and then told us he "didn't have time to install our glass door", though he agreed to install in person. - Took 6 weeks for him to pay back for the glass door; had to follow up 7 times via email or phone Details: We contacted Barry at the end of July and requested a quote for our shower. He was responsive, and was able to come in right away and provide a quote shorty after. While he was at our house, we discussed the materials he'd cover vs what we'd need to buy (tile, shower door, fixtures). I even confirmed it again via email. When he sent the contract over, I had a few areas I wanted to change and sent him redlines. I didn't hear from him after following up via email twice, and he randomly called me one morning asking if he could come over to discuss. He's lucky I work from home and have this flexibility, because his approach was not customer friendly. After the contract was signed mid August, it was dead silence on his end. I reached out to him on Thurs 10/3, knowing the weekend was approaching and we were starting the project on Tues 10/8. He called back, asking if we could start on Monday instead. Sure, but if I didn't reach out, would he have even asked? He said this would mean they'd finish earlier than projected, since they're starting a day early. On Mon 10/7, they arrived on time. When we start talking, Barry says we didn't get the right size tiles for the shower floor (he never clarified to us what we needed), we didn't get enough tiles for the walls, and he also doesn't provide a tile edge trim so we'd need to go buy it. And that he'd need all of this by tomorrow morning. Terrible communication on his end. So, we change our evening plans and go out to buy all his materials, fuming that we were doing this so last minute. The next day, they noticed our plumbing wasn't ideal for a tile shower. They talked to me about repair, which they quoted additional $ for. He said I could either pay him to do it now, or I could find someone else to do it and they'd delay the project. Obviously I didn't want to delay this further as we'd already waited 2 months, so who knows if their quoted $ for plumbing was legitimate or not. Throughout the week, they came and left when they wanted to. I don't expect them to stay the full work day, but as we got towards the end of the project timeline, they were no where close to done. They asked to extend the project twice, and a 5 day project became a 8 day project. The extra plumbing only took an extra 3 hrs, so unclear how we became so delayed. I was upfront with them that I purposely cleared out my schedule for this project, and they were not respectful of my time. When it was time to build the recessed niche, I used my shampoo bottle to demonstrate what I wanted in terms of height. When the finished the niche, my shampoo bottle didn't fit. When we asked Barry if he could install the shower door, he accepted. I walked away to continue working, and heard a massive shatter. I had a bad feeling it was the glass door. Barry broke the door, and didn't appear to have any kind of remorse. I immediately called the website I purchased the door from, and they were able to send a replacement same day. When I contacted Barry to give him an update on timeline, he told me he "didn't have time to install the shower". I had to then contact him SEVEN times over the next 6 weeks to receive a check for breaking the glass. Will be looking elsewhere for remodeling in the future.

He did an excellent job with communication and getting the job done in a timley manner. Everything was done professionally, and done to our expectations. When he finished the job, he cleaned up after himself and we couldn't tell that he was there beside the professional work that he had done on the interior of the house. I highly recommend him. He did an excellent job overall.

It is important to me that I invite someone into my home that I know is safe around my wife and children, and Dave passes the test -- he is very honest and worthy of trust. For home improvement projects, I need someone who can identify the critical aspects of the job, write an accurate estimate, and then perform the work in a timely and efficient way. Dave is able to do that consistently, which is why he has earned my business. I highly recommend you give him a chance to bid your project.

By the…read moretime I was ending my job, I decided to reach out to a painting contractor to complete the areas that were hard to reach. Shannon responded to my call immediately, was out to my house that same day to provide a free estimate, and within a couple of weeks I had everything done. Shannon and his crew (of 4-5 guys) showed up on time, ready to work. They not only painted hard-to-reach areas (including a 20 foot stairwell wall and other areas), but also took care of some long overdue items around the house (drywall work, mud & tape). They were in and out within 4 hours. All of this came at a cost that was extremely reasonable (especially compared to a contractor we used during our last paint job 9 years ago). Absolutely recommend A Touch Above Painting.

He has gotten the jobs done each time within the timeframe we wanted, and is always very pleasant to work with. We leave Shannon the keys and know we'll return to a transformed house. Shannon truly goes above and beyond. This last time he surprised us and had assembled the new fans we bought (that were still in boxes) and mounted them. When we did the final walk-through with him one of our fuses happened to blow and he helped us get it fixed. Apparently he's not only a great painter but he's also a handyman available for hire! Looking forward to use Shannon again. Would recommend him to anyone looking for honest and quality workmanship. Thank you for making our projects stress-free, Shannon! We're very pleased with the turnout.

We had a wonderful experience with Jake and his crew. They recently finished a large remodel of two…read morebathrooms, and they both turned out great. One was a small guest bathroom, and it is still small, but sharp! The other bathroom involved knocking down a wall to make a huge master bathroom, as well as a moderately large closet. Family and friends come into that bathroom and don't want to leave! My 6-year old granddaughter insisted on taking a shower in the large shower, with its beautiful tile and two full glass sides. Speaking of tile, the tile work was meticulously done, which is easy to tell. These jobs involved plumbing, electrical work, adding crawl space beams, drywall and paint -- everything. Jake and his crew also insulated and draywalled the already framed in rooms and ceiling in our garage, and added a wall Heating/cooling unit. It looks great and now my husband can work in there year-round. Finally, Jake oversaw landscapers, who completely recreated the pool area. They were amazing to watch as they laid pavers all around the pool. It will make swimming a pleasure. As part of this project, Jake and his crew built a structure -- I would call it a small pavilion -- where my husband can grill and use his Big Green Egg and be out of bad weather and be a part of the pool action. This was a professional crew. Of course, things went wrong. Nobody gets everything right the first time and unexpected things happen in every remodel. Sometimes there was confusion about supplies that weren't picked up -- a bit more organization would help that -- and a bigger crew. However, I appreciate that Jake hires qualified people and tries to pay them well. Jake was careful to keep me informed about the budget as we went along and we ended up about $4000 over -- not bad for a bid of $85,000 for the entire job. If you want a building company that does quality work and will listen to your concerns, Aarow Building is for you.
