From the day I cut a 50% check (prior to job start) we were in the 3rd month when he walked out. I had to hire another contractor to complete the project so I could get final building inspection. Unprofessional communication (he would actually swear at me in text messaging). Poor craftsmanship (doors are askew, paint is spotty, nail holes showing, etc.) and poor Sub-contractor management on Jeff's part. He told me his Sub-contractors "were working on larger projects", which is no way to run a business or treat your customers. He also didn't pay two of his Sub-contractors and left me to pay those invoices of over $5,000 to keep my house from having a lien plus the ~$1,200 I had to pay the second contractor. This was far more than the balance I owed him of ~$1,700. It was an awful experience and I blame myself as I should have done far more due diligence before hiring Jeff. I hope others will take this review to heart as I would not wish the experience I had on anyone.

In May 2019 our house ended up in the path of a hailstorm that resulted in significant damage to…read moreour roof. I immediately reached out to a contractor whom we used in the past and who we respected. He pointed me to Carey Roofing, saying that they were a good company and were 'honest'. I called Carey Roofing and within days, Nick Carey came out and assessed the situation. Nick was present when the claims adjuster came. I observed that they worked together well without any 'friction'. Nick went over Carey Roofing's estimate with us and worked closely helping us select shingles. A short time later Nick transferred my job to Chuck Carey who finished it up. As is often the case, there were a few hiccups during the project. Chuck kept me in the loop for any delays or issues and made sure the work was done correctly and as closely to schedule as possible. All of the workers were polite and did professional work. Shrubs were protected during roofing and a thorough cleanup was done at the end of each day. Carey Roofing became like family during the project. In summary, Carey Roofing did a great job of replacing our shingles, vents, screens, etc. I found them to be honest and professional. I highly recommend them.

Co-owner Jared Watson is great to work with, along with his crew who completed the work with no delay. The workmanship is top notch.

Highly recommended!

I felt like I was victimized twice, a victim of a fire and a victim of them. I hired them because I thought this would be smooth process of them removing all the furniture and storing it. They promised it would be a smooth transition with repairs and returning my families items. It wasn't, it was a nightmare. EVERYTHING they took that was not damaged was returned damaged or never was returned. They over charged my insurance company for services that were not rendered. They were very unprofessional;one of their employees was heard singing "swing low sweet chariot" ie a slave song. This was racist! I was offended and that was a red flag. They half did all the work, nothing was finished and they were never on the job site. They are the worst contractors Ever! This company is still trying to reck havoc on my families life. I will be contacting the Better Business Bureau and any blog that I can get the word out about them. Right now I am getting signs so that I can picket at their door, if I can find the door. They operate under various names some I've found are: Paul Davis Restoration, B n B Restoration. I am trying to pull up all the names they operate under. This company is a modern day, racist, unprofessional scam. While we were in a hotel they told us they were going on vacation; mind you this was six months into them remodeling "house was still a hot mess"They told my family they would deal with our things when they returned. My family spent Christmas,Thanksgiving and New Years in a hotel and the fire happened in August. They are like Lawyers who run after clients they are contractors who run after the fire truck! Beware and stay Away! My husband had to complete the work to get our family back into our home. We never closed out with paper work or anything. BEWARE! Signed, Unhappy in Cary, The Palmers

I hired Greg to renovate a half bath that had a toilet that leaked, damaging the sub floor and…read morehardwoods in the hall. The first red flag was Greg's cartoonish quote for work. Greg is a smooth talker and made it seem like it would all be good. He said payment would be due upon completion although there was no mention of this in the "contract." Turns out "Remove vanity and install custom vanity" means ripping out the large existing vanity, sink, and huge mirror and then popping down the pedestal sink THAT I BOUGHT. Period. Red flag #2: When I asked Greg about the massive drywall damage, he said "Is it in the contract?" The agreement does say he does not cover drywall repair, but this was literally left in a demo state. On Day 2, while the entire floor was ripped up with the crawlspace exposed, Greg asked me for a check. I said I planned to pay him with a credit card and it would take me a few days to move money around to give him the equivalent of cash. Day 3 he walked off the job claiming non-payment. After I calmly explained that I could not be in non-payment because no payment was due, Greg came back the next day like nothing happened... All of the insulations under the half bath was wet so it had to go. Greg did not want anything to do with replacing it. I went out and bought insulation and installed it myself. Either Greg or his plumber, Drew, cracked the first sink basin during install. Luckily Home Depot replaced it with no questions and Drew came back and installed the new one. Drew was actually great. I did all of the leg work for the return, so don't expect Greg to actually stand by his work or take responsibility for mistakes. Greg made it clear he does not do hardwood floor repair and I was fine with that. Turns out, my hardwood flooring guy discovered that there was a strange strip of plywood sub floor installed to fill a gap that was not actually supported. We found out why when he pulled it up. See photos. Don't expect structural repairs to actually connect to other structural members. Don't expect your tile OR subfloor to be level or flat. Don't expect a professional job.

I contacted NHRC and Greg came out the next day for a consultation. He quoted me a price that I thought was very good for the entire bathroom remodel. Greg and his other worker were very efficient and even though we ran into a few issues (old plumbing and uneven walls), Greg was able to troubleshoot the issues and did a fantastic job with this renovation. As you can see from the photos, the bathroom turned out beautifully! I'm very happy with the results. Greg did such a great job. I will be contacting him for future renovations. I highly recommend NHRC and Greg's remodeling services!
