I am joining the other yelp reviews regarding CK Builders in solidarity, and also being hopeful…read morethat others will make the right decision to never have CK Builders darken their doorway, let alone work on it! Read those reviews and mine very carefully, so your hard earned money, spent with the intent
to improve likely one of your largest financial investments, won't be just throwing good money after bad by using CK Builders. Lack of skill sets starting with the owners and all the way down the line. We hired CK for a residential remodel, only to quickly regret that decision. Promised us skilled and trusted trades people, we got whomever they could scrape up, and that's probably a result of their reputation. They WILL NOT stand behind their work, or their mistakes, even though they tout a 4 year warranty when you sign up with them. Robynn (an owner) will be the first one to dodge the issues and make excuses, then Chad (an owner) will back her up. All the while twisting the facts and spending more time trying to escape responsibility for problems. They look for ways to add to the bill, charging for talking to the customer or their subs, driving to the shop, picking up materials, anything to add on! Billing errors and oversights a continual occurrence. In our neighborhood, CK is now known as THAT contractor to stay away from. Terrible, inconsistent work patterns, never cleaning up after the day, or even the week. Usually no trash cans in the house, painters dumping paint water on our bushes by the front door. The sheetrock guy thoughtlessly splashing his white sheetrock mud all over our brown bricks and windows. Sheetrock and screws and just general debris left in our nicely groomed flower beds. Bushes trampled down. Painters dumping paint water that they used to water down the paint, on bushes, grass, and in the street. Not the responsible disposal of chemicals you would expect. No regard or respect for the homeowners property, PERIOD! The previous 2 reviews here on Yelp also mention common issues. Very frustrating to pay 10's of 1000's of dollars for shoddy work and unprofessional behavior. Framers that show up and spend most of the day on their phone instead of working, tape and mud guy unreliable, that is WHEN he showed up. CK's painting co., 5 star subbed out the work to another company whose work was to put it mildly horrible. Thinned paint, improper or not the necessary equipment to do the job right, did not sand doors etc where needed. Overall sloppy prep and finish. We thought the free paint promo that Five Star was offering would be a great way to save some money on this expensive remodel, only to find out they get that money back 10 fold by cutting corners and not providing the paint products or painter expertise advertised. Instead they sent us the D Team for our project that we paid top dollar. Who ever heard of rolling paint on a steel door. Plumbers, electricians, flooring, cabinets, nothing but problems every step of the way. Should be 0 stars for CK they did nothing to earn even one!
