I've had my walls painted in the den, living room, hallway, and entry hall. the painter also painted my cabinets on site, and did an amazing job. He indicated he didn't know what type paint the contractor used, because it wasn't oil based because when he sanded it, it had a powdery feel to it, oil base wouldn't do that. He also stated if I hadn't painted my cabinets, I wouldn't be able to wash them. They were not smooth,and had a dull finish with powdery substance on it. On a second note, he stated that the contractor did a great job with backsplash, Mosaic, flooring, building cabinets, and did a good job painting walls and ceilings, and didnt need a redo, and I agree. I paid the contractor $1350 for the painting of the rooms, and $2500 for the painting of the cabinets. Once again it is sad that the contractor cannot contact me concerning these issues or take responsibility. But if he can live with it so can I.

They did an amazing job and were done quickly just in time for Christmas. The house was left in very clean condition which is a plus as some contractors leave a lot of debris and dust. He was even able to haul away our old carpet for additional fee which saved us much needed stress at the holidays. I plan to use again on a wood floor repair this spring.

It took 3 plumbing contractors before a company could even find exactly where the leak was under the slab; the first two contractors said "around here", but could not "promise" that they wouldn't have to chase a leak; if they were wrong. After we found the exact location, we had to find a contractor who could cut into the slab, repair the copper water line, prepare the slab for re-tiling, tiling options, and repair the drywall hole - and paint. That's where Vanessa of Evangeline Construction came into the picture. She did a great job assessing what was needed - and arranged the work in a timely manner. The plumber (and concrete worker) did a great job repairing the water line and prepping area for re-tiling. Their tiler's did a great job harvesting the same tile from a different part of the house - to fix the repair area, and installed new tile for the front entryway. We are very, very happy with the work Evangeline Construction did for our home. Thanks a bunch, Vanessa! :)

Rob Hanawalt is awesome! Hire his company!…read more We met Rob in 2005-2006 when he worked as a subcontractor on a house we were building. He obviously had skill as a carpenter and was very respectful. His attention to detail is great as he built a door from a door slab we provided (he didn't require a pre-hung door). He always checked with us when we were both on site to see if we were satisfied with his work and to see how we were doing. Soon after the completion of the house, we directly hired him to do some handy-man work on the townhouse we were selling. His price was fair, and he did a great job. As usual, he kept to schedule and finished when he said he would. In 2009, we hired his company, Inspired Construction, to fill in the ground level of the house he worked on in 2006 (house on columns). Again, Rob listened to what we wanted and was willing to work with us on tasks that we wanted to do ourselves. His quote was fair, and his crew members were as trustworthy as him. He did a great job. He suggested subcontractors to us instead of just hiring them. We went with his suggestions, and the subs were as good as Rob. You're probably wondering what happens if something goes wrong. Well, my wife and I left confusing directions with Rob about how we wanted our exterior steps built before we left on a long weekend trip. I described how to build them, and my wife later told him that a neighbor had a set of stairs similar to what we wanted. The stairs were done when we returned, but not how we wanted. Instead of refusing to work with us, he agreed to rework the stairs for half of the rework price. He's never run out on a job like other contractors we hired. He's so good that he provided a copy of the paid invoice for the 2009 job when we couldn't find it in 2016 for tax purposes. To summarize, Rob is competent, hard-working, dependable, respectful, and trustworthy. The definition of professional should have his picture included. The worst characteristics about a contractor are lack of communication and not showing up. Rob doesn't have these characteristics. He even returns a call to say that his company is too busy to take on a job (give him a couple of days to call back though). Stop looking and hire him if you are lucky enough to find him with an opening in his schedule. I did read the review by Arienne L. and have no knowledge of the project. If that review concerns you, you really need to contact Rob to discover his side of the story. All I can say is that we had at least 4 ventures with Rob over at last 5 years, and he was ALWAYS a stand up guy.

Where to start... Everyone said my husband and I were crazy for even contemplating a home…read morerenovation. General contractors have about the same reputation as car salesmen (except about 10 times worse), but we made sure to do our homework and interview MANY general contractors in the Charleston area. We narrowed it down to two, and decided to choose Rob Hanawalt of Inspired Construction. He seemed to be a diamond in the rough. His appearance was so non-threatening, he was well-spoken and intelligent, and above all he seemed extremely passionate about his work, craft, and customer service. Unfortunately for us, he has proven to be anything but. Our experience with him has lasted for over a year now, and the nightmare seems to be never-ending. Our project was a large project, but was one that he assured us he had the expertise to undertake. The job went over budget, well over the time frame (as it still has not been completed 100%), and has left my family with hardwood floors that need to be replaced and will likely cost us tens of thousands of dollars to fix. Here is a list of just some of the specific issues he failed to complete: - He failed to have proper knowledge of how to install our bamboo flooring throughout our house. He failed to properly manage his subcontractors while they were installing our floors, and could never provide us with full documentation on the type of glue that was used during installation. Our floors now need to be replaced and could cost us up to $30,000 to replace! When we asked him to file a claim with his insurance to fix the problem, he denied any wrongdoing and threatened my husband and family. - He failed to have proper knowledge of Charleston County code requiring our house to have hurricane protection shutters, which cost us thousands of unexpected dollars to create and install. - Our yard was left in shambles, with nails, concrete, piles of dirt, bricks, paint cans, and other debris strewn about. When we brought this to his attention and asked him to clean up the mess, he told us that the yard was not a part of his "scope of contracted work" and that we basically should have expected our yard to be destroyed during our renovation. Instead we had to spend days cleaning up the mess ourselves, as well as having to hire outside help to do the things we could not do ourselves. We also had to just pray that our young children would not hurt themselves while in our yard. Our children's safety was obviously never a concern of his... At first we were devastated by this huge blunder caused by Inspired Construction. We tried several times to bring the problems to his attention so that he could attempt to rectify the situation, but unfortunately that didn't work. Not only did he deny any wrongdoing (which we figured he would do), but he went so far as to blame the problem on us, the clients, and threaten us with all sorts of outlandish things. Honestly, there are many more issues to report on, but I am tired of thinking about it at this point. I have never in my life dealt with someone so unprofessional, dishonest, disingenuous, and lacking of common decency. There is not enough room on this page for me to express the entirety of grief and aggravation that he has caused my family. PLEASE, for your own sake, DO NOT hire this company to do any sort of work on your house. You will regret it. The phrase "wolf in sheep's clothing" was created to describe individuals like Rob Hanawalt.
