PLEASE NOTE: Yelp lists me as living in San Francisco, however, my home is in Topsfield, MA…read more This month we contracted with Iwano and Sons to fix two decks which were in need of repair. One of the decks required removal of a flight of stairs and both needed to have the railings reinforced. Working with Gabriel to make this happen was a pleasure! He is very personable and responsible -- in other words, his standards are very high as reflected by the outcome of our decks repair project. Not only did his team do a great job repairing our worn decks, but also they cleaned the work spaces thoroughly each day. All in all, we are very pleased and intend to contact Gabriel Iwano whenever we have a construction project in the future.

Keep looking! Do not use!…read more I hired Iwano and Sons for a high-spec paint job on my house. Scraping, power washing, priming, caulking, carpentry and repairs as needed, and 2 coats of California paint. The job was done, but in less than 3 years I had significant pealing and cracking on 3 sides of the house. 3 years is past the 2-year guarantee, but the level of failure experienced in such a short time should have been addressed. I brought it to Gabriel's attention and offered to supply the paint and to address the first story issues myself. I just wanted the parts that required 2nd story work to be done with his labor. He agreed, BUT ONLY IF I PAID. I moved on from this supplier. In addition to this, when originally doing the job, he did not address an area where rotting wood should have been replaced. Neglecting the repair at that time resulted in much more advanced damage and required more rework and with it more cost when it was addressed. When I hired Gabriel, the carpentry was on a time and material basis and would not have cost him profit from the paint job. Doing the work would have resulted in more revenue for him. Do not use this supplier. He does not do the work correctly and if it does fail, he does not stand behind his work.

This is the hardwood flooring guy you need!!…read more We hired Sye about 9 years ago when we first bought our house... we thought he did a great job even back then! We just hired him again to finish our job after the GC quit! (GC's floor guy butchered our upstairs and basically ruined our new floors) We thankfully got Sye to do our first floor... the difference is incredible! The floors looks like glass when the light hits them... so smooth to the touch! Sye had the difficult task of trying match our original floors and deal with our uneven framing from 1955. He was more run up to this task!! He has come a long way from when we first met him and has obviously focused on perfecting his trade!! Sye uses an extremely high quality sander that left our home with legitimately zero dust!! (The GC's guy required professional cleaners after he did our floors!) Sye also used very high quality stain and finishes... which can take a bit longer but are well worth the wait!! Sye was able to fit us in his schedule almost immediately (which was a huge help cause we are trying to refinance). His quoting software and brochures also simplify the process... so if you are unsure of what style or finish he can easily guide you! Thank you again Sye... we will happily recommend you to all our family and friends!

What a disappointment. I worked with this company in July when my neighbor's rats chewed through…read morethe hose of his dishwasher and flooded me. They were responsive and did beautiful work sso where did I turn when my neighbor flooded me again? This time they were not responsive and provided a bloated quotation that did not provide the quantity and size/amt information needed by my insurance. They drug their heels for two weeks and then simply stopped responding. I appreciate Yelp because I was able to find three companies able to work with my insurer's offer. I withdraw my earlier review and support for this company. Edit: I learned a few things the second time around: drywall should not have gone down to the ground, edging/trim is inexpensive readily available and costs $20/box, and the cable connector was sealed inside the wall -not cool

I hired them for drywall repairs in my condo after ice dam leaks caused damage in multiple ceiling…read moreareas. The job involved cutting out and replacing sections of the ceiling, patching, and handling loose insulation above, plus some added stress crack repairs. They did a thorough walkthrough upfront and clearly explained everything, which I appreciated. The finished work looks clean and ties in well with the existing ceiling. I had a bunch of minor stress cracks, and they patched and painted everything very well. They even fixed some nicks and dents from old paint jobs, which was a nice extra. The two-person crew was skilled, friendly, and very respectful of the space. There were a couple minor hiccups at the start (a payment system glitch and a delayed arrival on day one), but everything was resolved quickly. They use an online system that sets you up with an account, keeping your quote, invoice, and scheduled appointments all in one place, with simple online payment. I got multiple bids, and their pricing was very reasonable. The owner came out at the end to personally check the work and make sure I was happy. Honestly, it was a pleasure to deal with folk who take pride in their work and their reputation. Overall, a positive and painless experience. Would definitely hire again.

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.
