I would avoid this company. I used them this past December to replace the fascia boards at my house…read moreand it's been a nightmare. The guys they sent to do the demo work were unqualified and made a mess of my yard and the drip edge of my roof issue mangled in many places (Chris said it would be straightened then just hid it behind the gutters). Luckily the roofing crew finished the work they started, but it still didn't come out great. I've got multiple gaps that have formed around the fascia boards and gutters that are all messed up now, with water getting behind them in multiple places. There are wasps currently building nests in the gaps they left. I've called, texted and sent messages to Chris (the owner) through Yelp and he hasn't responded once and apparently doesn't stand behind his work. They also found a roof issue while they were doing the fascia boards that required them to remove a section of the roof and repair it, and while I haven't noticed any issues with it yet I'm nervous about the quality of it after seeing how the fascia boards turned out. They were supposed to replace the soffit reveal where they replaced the roof but never did, and I found a piece where they were supposed to install pvc fascia material is actually just a piece of tin cut to that shape. The soffit reveals all around the house are also uneven in a lot of places. I ended up having to buy a roofing magnet to pick up the hundreds of nails they left behind in my yard. I tried to give Chris the opportunity to make this right, but he won't answer or return any of my calls or messages. I would not recommend using Oakwood Roofing.

My husband and I were looking to take out a load bearing wall in our home and when the initial…read morecontractor felt it was beyond his scope, he recommended John. John and his assistant John came over to take a look at our house and to review the engineered plans. John provided us with a fair estimate and proof of insurance. We felt confident that John could do the job. On the very first day of John and John beginning the project, they discovered ducts in the walls which were not shown in the engineered plans. They immediately stopped working and told us to review our options and make a decision that we were comfortable with. They were extremely patient and never pressured us to continue the project. Several weeks later after we had the hvac ducts removed, the project resumed. They moved with great speed through the project. Our house was cleaned up when they left each day. They could not have been more pleasant, and the communication was outstanding. Factors outside of John's control (hvac issues from an hvac company we hired) complicated the project, but John never seemed frustrated when the project was delayed. John took what had become a very stressful situation and eased our worries. He advocated for us every step of the way and went above and beyond any of our expectations. The project was finished in a timely manner, and the work was beautifully done. I can honestly say John is the most honest contractor I have ever met. We are so appreciative to have found him, will be repeat customers, and would recommend him to anyone looking for an honest and fair contractor.

Since I've so rarely had a positive experience working with contractors, I wanted to write a few…read morelines about my exceptionally good experience working with John Conneely. We hired John to replace just about all of the windows (13) in our 1897 Victorian home. John came highly recommended, and we couldn't have been happier with his work. John was the kindest, most honest, and highly-skilled contractor I've ever worked with. He gave us a very reasonable quote for the window work, and did a great job setting expectations on how long the work would take and what it would entail. John and his team then installed the windows expertly, in the estimated time frame, and on budget. John and his team were also extremely courteous while working in our home during COVID, and went above and beyond cleaning up after themselves and taking away all the garbage. When they left, we simply got to enjoy having windows that kept our home warm . John will definitely be the first person I contact for any work associated with our home for many years to come.

After speaking with a number of contractors, we eventually settled on giving the project to Brolly Construction. We were so glad that we did! James came in with a budget and explained everything that would be done, and how long each step of the process would take. They kept to the budget and even finished a little ahead of schedule. We were actually able to rent out our first floor apartment a month earlier than we expected! James and his crew were always very approachable and open to any and all ideas we had. Some of our neighbors have had them do work on their own properties as a result of the great job they did with our house. We would highly recommend Brolly Construction to anybody who is looking.

Joe and his team completed a job at my house a few weeks ago. I had experienced some issues with…read morewater damage to my outdoors porch. Joe was extremely responsive and came out that day to take a look at the issue. After assessing the extent of the damage, Joe presented a few different options to fix the damage. I was pleased to be able to provide some input on the process; most contractors I have dealt with in the past were not willing to discuss other options. Upon commencing the work, Joe discovered that many of the pieces of suspect wood were in fine shape so they did not replaced. This ended up saving time and money for the project. Split Rock was able to finish the project much quicker than I expected and were extremely reasonable for the quality of the finished product that they delivered. I would recommend them to anyone looking for an affordable and high quality general contractor.

Brian also installed radiant heat under the new tile floor. We couldn't be happier, and we would highly recommend Brian to anyone considering a remodel.

I cant say enough about IDR and his crew, they are extremely easy to work with, honest and hardworking, and delivered beautiful results. They helped to fit our project in their timeline, including moving and reinstalling cabinets, configuring layout, *absolutely beautiful piece of art* backsplash, and change of a back exterior door. His crew helped me realize my vision with many custom configurations and designs professionally! He's currently helping us with our second home with a larger project of bathroom addition and kitchen island addition, and I think we will hire him without a doubt for any future projects too!

We found IDR…read moreConstruction via Google and Yelp reviews and we were very impressed with the reviews and pictures of IDR's work. Ian took the time to talk on the phone when I first reached out about the project and the scope of work. He even reviewed some drawings I had done of the space and pointed out some things to think about for the layout (such as if we moved the fridge, we'd have to make sure we could access a water line for the ice maker). Ian met with us at the house to talk about the project, and we engaged Ian and IDR shortly thereafter. All told, the renovation took about 4 weeks, which was a great timeline and we are very pleased with how it came out. Ian was responsive, polite, and overall a pleasure to work with, and his subcontractors were polite, unobtrusive and cleaned up each day. We were fortunate in that we had a clear vision of what we wanted (which made the design process easy), but Ian truly helped bring that vision to life and thought of ways to make it better that we hadn't thought of, all while never being pushy or disrespectful. We highly recommend Ian and the IDR team and we look forward to the opportunity to work with him again.

This last one he and his team replaced our entire 100yr old slate roof (with new slate he sourced from the same quarry as the original), repointed the chimneys, all new sub roof, rubber roofs, copper work, new gutters, painting and stucco repairs.

The two previous projects were an emergency to address a leaking bathroom on a tight budget and insulation of our whole house. Super helpful, great work. Absolutely 5 stars.
