When we first went to BCT in May 2021 to shop for new carpet we met John and he was very nice and very helpful. We were looking to carpet a very small living area, hallway and staircase. We brought samples home and decided on a Milliken Nylon carpet. We set up the measure and they came the following week. We waited a few days for the quote and when we didn't hear anything back from Robin, my husband reached out to her so we could get the quote and get things rolling. When we received it VIA email my husband had to request a break down of material , labor etc. because Robin didn't offer one. We never saw a diagram and I didn't know we should have been shown one. She only sent the cost. When we got a breakdown, we placed an order for a 13ft carpet and a bound edge for the staircase carpet and set up the install for July 12th. July 12th..JT was our installer. JT arrived at 8am with helpers to help unload the carpet from the work van, the helpers left, leaving JT . Our carpet was brought into our home in sections, which I thought was odd because we ordered in a 13 ft roll. They are the professionals so I trusted they knew what they are doing. We ordered the edge for the staircase carpet to be bound. It was not. A phone call to Robin and there were no apologizes, only excuses. She said it was bad communication between us. The bound edge is on our invoice and suppose to be ordered that way. Robin screwed up. So the staircase carpet was delayed. No apologies. July 13.. JT came in the morning to finish up the install. When he left I noticed a seam in the middle of our hallway and a second seam directly down from the first one in our main hallway. I was livid. This is a very high traffic area in our home. It was very visible and there was absolutely NO reason to have ANY seams there. The carpet that transitioned into our kitchen to hard wood flooring we requested to have rolled and it was lumpy and the edging was so uneven it looked horrible. There was a hole in the corner of the carpet going up our staircase where it looked like JT cut it short so he tried to hide it by tucking the carpet into the hole. The carpet was loose in areas and the cuts were uneven in locations by our heaters and by the walls. I called Battle Creek Tile immediately and asked to speak with Robin. She was on vacation. I spoke with another gal in the office and explained the awful install and how upset we were. We spent almost 4 grand on this carpet! She was going to leave Robin a message. That was not acceptable. I took video and sent Robin a ton of pictures. I called and asked to speak to John (owner) because I was so upset. John pulled our file. A few minutes later Robin called me. She was sending someone to our home the next day to asses the problem. Again no apologies. July 14th..Adrian came to asses along with JT. I pointed out all the flaws. I expected Adrian to come take a look and agree that the whole carpet needed to be replaced. She said I would have to take that up with Robin or John she was only here to fix the seams or any other problems. I was on the phone with Robin at that moment while Arian and JT were here. Robin tried telling me there was nothing wrong with the carpet and it could be repaired. I told her you can't move seams and I didn't want seams in our main traffic area of our home!!! Robin was very argumentative and tried talking over me. She finally agreed and said she would get the replacement ordered. Again, no apologies July 29th..I received email from Robin that our next install for the replacement was scheduled for "August 31st". August 12th..I received email from Robin that Milliken pushed production to August 20th.. August 23rd..Email from Robin w/attachment. Carpet was delayed per Milliken. Sept 31st. Adrian and Scott installed replacement and we are happy. I will give them credit for replacing the carpet and say Arian did an amazing job with the second install.

A Truly Exceptional Contractor -- Valiant Contracting Earned My Full Trust!…read more A backed‑up sewer drain forced me into a complete bathroom gut and remodel -- the kind of nightmare project no homeowner ever wants to face. From the moment Valiant Contracting stepped in, the stress lifted. Their quote process was straightforward and refreshingly honest, with no fluff, no pressure, and no surprises. What set them apart was the control they gave me at every stage. I chose every fixture, every material, and even where each item was purchased. Zach, Aaron, and Justin treated my home with respect from day one. They were consistently polite, considerate, and professional -- the kind of crew you don't mind having in your house. The workmanship was outstanding. They moved quickly without cutting corners, and the final result looks and feels like a high‑end custom build. Even after we decided to replumb the shower and a sink to PEX -- a smart recommendation from Zach -- the total cost still came in far below the other quotes I received. Valiant Contracting is the rare company that takes real pride in their craft, and it shows in every detail of the finished bathroom. I recommend them without hesitation or equivocation. If you want a contractor who communicates clearly, works efficiently, and delivers exceptional quality at a fair price, this is the team you want on your project.

When I had to take over my parents house I discovered that I needed a new roof put on the house and…read moreso I called Lyster's because I knew they were the best contractor for the job. They came to the house and worked with me to get the roof done right away . In the end they were able to do the whole roof including replacing some boards as well . They were so easy and great to work with. I got a fantastic price and so I hired them to do the job. I have never regretted hiring them to do the job and they also took the time to completely replace all the gutters too. I recently was told by another company that I was in need of a new roof and probably some boards too. The guy said that I had black mold in my attic as well. The guy was from Top Home Improvements. I had went to the Senior Expo a couple of weeks ago and they had a both there so I signed up to get a quote and roof inspection. I would never ever use that company to do anything on my house ever! The guy outright lied to me and the pictures he said that he showed me indicating that I definitely needed to get my roof replaced and have some other repairs too. In the end I showed everything to the guy from Lysters and he pointed out to me that the first pictures he had taken were of my house but the pictures he showed me of what was supposedly my with damaged shingles and supposedly some soft spots in the roof. Indicating that I also needed some boards replaced too. In the end the guy from Lysters went up on my roof and looked it completely over then said to me your roof is in great shape and he also told me that if I had a leak in the roof causing black mold to grow in there then the water leak would also have gone down to the main level of the house and I would have water spots showing up. I have no water spots anywhere in the upstairs of my home. Once again just proving that I was actually lied to. The great news was I not only didn't need a new roof at all and the one I have now is going to be fine for at least another 10 to probably 15 years. I felt so relieved because the quote from Top Home Improvement was for just under $35,000.00 ! I can assure you that if I ever need work done on my home I will never call anyone but Lyster's to do the job. As for Top Home Improvement I would never use them for any job. I'm just so angry that they outright lied to me and almost cost me a substantial amount of money that was never necessary to spend whatsoever. I guess I would say buyer beware of who you call to do important work on your home. By not getting a second opinion I would have spent a huge amount of money that wasn't really necessary at all. I have also learned that from now on before I hire any company to do work on my home I'll definitely be checking with the Better Business Bureau too. They collect information about all kinds of companies and post the reviews of what other people have had to say about the company.

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.
