I hired Renowned Renovations to renovate my townhome in West Village - this is the first home I…read morehave ever owned as well as my first renovation project. When I purchased the home, I knew that I loved the layout but hated the finishings, so as soon as I closed, I immediately started looking for a contractor. Right away, I was impressed by Grant's professionalism. After a few minutes of standard pleasantries, he got right down to business. We spent about a half hour walking through each room in my home, talking through what I wanted to do. Based on the walkthrough, Grant quickly turned around a detailed bid, and we started the project shortly thereafter using the bid as our project plan. In addition to the initial walk-through, I worked with Melissa on a number of aesthetic selections. One area where Melissa played a crucial role was the layout for the master bathroom. I knew the existing layout utilized the space very poorly, but I had no idea how exactly to rearrange everything. Melissa came back with 3 options (one of which we moved forward with), and I know I would never have ended up with the design we landed on without her help. Due to my short timeframe, we started the project without drawings or precise plans (other than what was prepared for the initial bid). Tyler was incredibly adept at reacting quickly during the project, especially when last minute changes were needed. Overall, we finished within the agreed upon timeframe, and only exceeded the original budget for items I added during the project. All the subs they brought in were great, especially the painters and tile guys. When we did the final walkthrough, there were a few minor issues, but they were fixed in an expeditious manner at no extra charge.

On Oct 10. the owner posted a response to backtrack on their story to claim they have refunded me "immediately". I HAVE NOT BEEN REFUNDED at all, this business is LYING. After I posted this update, the owner must have determined his false action was not good at deceiving readers of this review and changed his post again. (Screenshots added) Series of events: 1. We had them at our home 2. They provided a free cost estimate 3. We liked the estimate and discussed next steps. They informed us it's to pay $600 to get a completed design. We asked them point blank if paying for the design is going to provide us a complete/finalized design and that it does not require us to move forward with this business. They said yes we will be provided a complete and finalized design and no we will not be required to contract with this business 4. We payed $600 and entered the design phase 5. During the first review of our design we provided them with defects in the design based on the specifications provided and new requests we wanted to add. We were told we would be provided the complete and accurate designs with the defects corrected and the new requests added. 6. They provided a second design iteration which also had design defects which do not align with or meet our original requests. They had failed to incorporate the additional asks which were told would be provided 7. During the design review phase we aligned this business isn't an appropriate service partner for us to contract to build due to concerns we had with their contract regarding payment scheduling, accountability for damaging our personal property, and potential for cost increases. 8. We requested they finalized design plan which had already been paid for. 9. This business, as a result of us not choosing to pay the $10K+ non-refundable to move to the next phase, is refusing to complete the designs we have already paid for

We recently finished a two year journey that took us through discussions with no less than six…read morecontractors on a project to extend our gabled roof from our house over a portion of our patio so we could get more use out of the area. We finally decided to pull the trigger and proceed with the process right at the same time as Covid hit and at the onset of higher wood prices as well. Contractors for home improvement projects like what we wanted to do were in high demand. Ours was a small but complex project (due to several different roof lines) and we found out the pool of contractors was small. Some were upfront with us and said it was more complex than they could handle. A few of the very well known contractors around Frisco acted like they were up to the task of the project but when all said and done they didn't have the knowledge to actually build the specific design that we wanted. We went the extra step to get a structural engineer to prepare a report but unfortunately he turned out to be totally worthless and inept, his design was horrible, and he was a waste of money. He ended up being more of just a "concrete slab guy" rather than a structural engineer. We mistakenly thought we would be better prepared if we had a structural report ready for whatever contractor we picked, but we finally found a contractor that had a competent structural engineer they used that knew what they were doing - read on. Because it took so long to find a contractor we trusted, we had a lot of time to really plan out what we wanted. We were wanting to extend the gable over the patio, but had some specific preferences for the finish out. We wanted certain lighting accents, fans and electric heaters to get more use out of the covered space. We came across Beautiful Backyard Living (BBL) and after seeing the videos they had online, we gave them a call. Austin came out and worked with us during a consult where we talked about our vision and what we wanted to include. We knew it was a challenge, from a design and build out perspective, but Austin was great to work with. He took our concept and ran with it. They created a design that was structurally sound and that fit our vision perfectly. He came up with a visual rendering of the build out and took us through a couple iterations adding his ideas to ours to come up with a great plan. I was impressed with how professional BBL was and the fairness of their terms. NOTE: we even had one contractor that tried to discourage us from actually signing a contract for the work; if your contractor won't agree to the work in writing, run, don't walk away from that company! But with BBL, it was part of the process. Everything was in writing, pricing was agreed to up front, leaving nothing to chance - I really respected that. I'm not sure if our project was as involved as others, but we had carpentry, roofing, brick work, guttering, and electrical sub contractors involved. Austin, was there every step of the way making sure things got done right, corrected any issues to fit the plan, and adjusted as needed. He was working for us, and held his subs to his high standards. Suffice it to say the end product looked great. The brick addition blended in so well, and the carpentry on the covered gable, ceiling and cedar accents looked great. The patio cover extension looked like it was part of the house all along. We highly recommend working with BBL, their work is absolutely stunning!!!

Still 1-Star but new information…read more Aquaterra was pool service for the guy I bought my house from. He let the pool go because he wasn't living at the house at the time and it had started turning green. They told me they'd have the pool crystal clear and sparkling. After several weeks, the pool looked worse and they stopped showing up. So, I hired a new guy because despite my daily efforts to keep the pool clean and chemicals balanced things were not improving. He found that they [AquaTerra] let leaves and debris clog the impeller on the pump causing the flow issues. This was caused by a broken basket on the pump side skimmer that they should have but didn't replace. As a result, the filter pressure gauge (which I thought was broken and ordered a replacement gauge for) actually worked but the filter wasn't getting enough flow! Plus, the filter (while newer) had not been cleaned in a long time. To put it in perspective, Aquaterra came out about 2 weeks ago (for 2 weeks straight) and its taken 11lbs of shock (plus several pounds that I've added on my own) to undo what the should have done and didn't in the first place. And, my pool guy came today (Tuesday) and said the pool will be ready for swimming by the weekend. So yeah, don't let these guys near your pool.
