I can't recommend Tim Sessoms of Pearl Street South Construction enough! We bought a house built in 1974 that needed a lot of love, and our primary bathroom was at the top of the list. I asked Tim if he had any design experience and could offer suggestions for the remodel. He immediately sent over some inspiration photos, and I knew we were in good hands. After I shared my ideas, Tim called me a couple of days later and said, "Let me run something by you." The vision he came up with was even better than anything I had imagined. We couldn't be happier with the finished result. As with any renovation, there were a few bumps along the way, but Tim handled every challenge with professionalism, excellent communication, and a true dedication to his craft. His attention to detail and commitment to getting everything right really set him apart. The only downside to recommending him is that I don't want him to get so busy that I can't book him for my next remodeling project! If you're looking for someone who is talented, trustworthy, and genuinely cares about the finished product, Tim is your guy. read more

Pearl Street South - General Contractors Near Me

Tim helped us renovate our kitchen (countertops, tile) and master bathroom (complete demo and redo), paint the entire interior of our home, build custom built-ins, install a new front door, and replace light fixtures throughout the house. We've also continued to use him over the years for smaller repair projects. Tim is professional, trustworthy, dependable, and genuinely easy to work with. He shows up when he says he will, communicates well, does quality work, and is straightforward and fair with pricing. We always felt we could trust that he was giving us an honest assessment and not over-quoting a job. One thing we especially appreciated was how much respect Tim showed for the historic character of our home. The finished work felt true to the house while still updating and improving it. Tim does much of the work himself, but he also has excellent relationships with skilled subcontractors and specialists when needed. He knows when to bring in the right expert for a job. The people he works with are responsive, do quality work, and if something isn't right, Tim handles it appropriately and professionally. Overall, he's simply a good person with a good heart who takes pride in doing things the right way. We would absolutely recommend him to anyone looking for quality work and someone they can trust. read more

Pearl Street South and Tim Sessoms provides excellent remodel work. It is often difficult to estimate and evaluate remodels as there are always hidden issues that require additional thought and planning. As a designer it is really important to communicate with the contractor to address issues as they appear. Tim is very transparent in assessing changes and the need for additional material with the client. I would recommend his group as they are honest, provide good guidance on home remodels, and are patient with clients as remodels are often disruptive. read more

Several years ago we had Trex decking and rails installed. Work was excellent and completed in a timely manner. Tim was recommended by Builders Source and we were not disappointed. He starts work this week on our master shower. read more

Work was just okay. The roof that was built however, is not. It is ALREADY sagging on both sides. I let him know on June 9th and and was told he would be out next week to look at it and see how he can handle it. As of this post I've not seen him. (Three Months) He represents himself very well. Sounds very knowledgeable. So we (the family) agreed to have him do the 560 sq ft addition. He walked us around the house and we agreed upon what we would like. Tim never took any notes. (the conversation) We're going to make the master bathroom bigger (tiny shower). Open up the kitchen and the dining room. Add a pantry. One bedroom will be been turned into an office. We can add a door in place of a large double window. We will have them remove that window carefully and add it to the master bedroom.. I like to buy all my supplies and materials first to guard against shortages and price changes. (Never saw that happen) We needed our son's bedroom and bathroom to be done first so that we can keep him away from all the construction dust. (No Problem we were told) He is on a ventilator and needed protection from the construction. This Renovation took so long that we lost our nurses. Safety Concerns. Then no contract renewal so we lost them. Soon after our deposit, work started. Then, (a few weeks in) We need an emergency draw because of a major equipment issue. So we helped him out. Gave him an early draw. Well, That became a thing. Money for this. Money for that. Need money to pay my guys. Need to pay myself too... We had two guys for Most of the 9 months he was here. We would have more guys when I started questioning the work and how long it was taking. Work was just okay. Don't say anything to the workers. (Makes it a hostile environment) At the end He had Referred us back to the original contract. A third, a third, a third upon completion. Well, we need another draw? I need to see (IF) I can complete this job. That was the straw. I simply told him, "I don't think you can finish this Tim. No, you're not getting anymore. We've gone back to the original as you said. You've got your deposit, you've been given way over a third in the middle and now you want more to see (IF) you're capable of completing this job. I don't think you're going to complete this job. I don't think you can Tim. More was said . No heated exchange. Then, Tim walked away. Brushed his hands off and never looked back. It seems like he had been tracking the money. He knew almost to the penny how much was left. And there's no way he was going to complete this work with the amount of money we had left, so he walked away. I'm supposed to be able to call my " contractor ", whenever I have trouble in the first year after the jobs completed. I guess because he's not a real contractor and the job was not completed that he's not responsible? The amount of money paid? poor to questionable value. For the quality of work? poor value. And having to fix/finish too much, his help is overpaid. I was talked out of doing any of the work because if I leave it to the subcontractors then if something's wrong they have to come and fix it. Well a lot is wrong and I'm not seeing any of them yet to fix anything they did not do properly to start with. One of them told me that he did not use his licence on my job? The same one that did the best work. At least he was honest with me. Sorry Tim but Pearl Street South LLC is not a quality company. I'm glad that you tried to help me and I do have an addition. I am not thankful for the amount of work that is left for the amount of money you have been paid. This job was above your capabilities and your workers skill levels. You should know your limitations. You should also know that for the amount of money that you've been paid you are (Legally) REQUIRED to be an actual licensed contractor. With insurance and a bond to take care of the rest of this job that you are not capable of completing. I'm sorry you ran out of money. But that's your own fault. Your time management skills are lacking (but you pay yourself well for that) and your workers are taking advantage. I shouldn't be supporting two workers for the entire winter. They built a complete house across the street from me in the time that you didn't complete this 560 sq ft addition. For LESS MONEY I might add. For what you keep claiming to be, you should be ashamed of the work your doing. You did me No favors. All the things you found to (help me out), did not work in the house Or at all. So I'm still on the hook for all the finishes and appliances that I should have in my house. BUT, You did not do as you claimed in the beginning. You went downtown instead. read more
