We have been trying for weeks to find someone to build an outdoor living area. Most construction companies will not even respond to our messages. The good ones are booked up for months. A different company that does not service our area recommended R. Harward to us. I left one message regarding our interest in him doing a construction project. I didn't get a response so I tried an alternate number which was his mobile number. He sounded very interested in the project. He said was working in the area so I rearranged my schedule so he could come by. He thanked me for contacting him. We expected him that day. No show. I texted him for a status. He asked if he could come out the next day. We agreed upon a time. You guessed it. No show and no call. We felt lied to. Two days later he apologized because his phone broke. He asked if we still wanted to meet about the project. I agreed because I was impressed that he bothered to apologize. I immediately texted him the info again. Absolutely no response was received. It is no surprise that construction companies are a nightmare to deal with. They think it is acceptable behavior to manipulate and waste your time. I wish that we had built the extra room when the house was built 15 years ago. Let that be a lesson to anyone. If you build a house make sure you have it built with every possible thing then. If you buy a house make sure it has what you want. Otherwise you will never get anyone out there to make improvements. Thankfully, we now found someone else willing to look at our project. read more

Workers show up and work 30 minutes to an hour, then don't show up for 1 to 3 weeks. Company returns phone calls late or not at all. NOT a good company for small or large-scale remodels. They will take your money and put all of their small jobs ahead of a larger job. Best for only small handyman projects taking 2 hours or less. read more

I'm always skeptical of contractors that have decent rates, and I've never hired any one for so many repairs in my house, but these folks were awesome! They replaced fans, fixed roof shingles, and so many things that were just tricky because of the need for equipment and ladders. They wouldn't even let me lend a hand and instructed me to just relax and let them do everything! They got the job done fast, ahead of schedule, and were ridiculously knowledgeable. They are my new go-to handymen for anything around the house. It's crazy watching how fast and smoothly they handle electrical work, too! read more

Harward Construction recently installed a glass tile backsplash in my kitchen and the job could not have gone more smoothly. They were on time, did great work, cleaned up behind themselves, the price was reasonable and the communication was awesome. I was kept informed via phone, text and e-mail all along the way. We've already asked for an estimate on other work we need done at our home. I was very pleased with Randy and Harward Construction and highly recommend them for home repair projects. read more

Harward advertised a "Deal" on Angie's List - to which I'm a member. I purchased the deal which was for 3 hrs. of handyman services. We communicated with email and after several emails, a date and time was finally decided upon.A week before the work date, I emailed them one last time, with details of the work I wanted performed and even provided pictures. I confirmed with them, that the work was something they could do. I wanted them to put a peep hole in my front door, add some wood to my front porch steps, but most importantly, I needed a 5x5 porch support replaced that had rotted from a leaky gutter spout (the gutters were replaced the month before by someone else). I requested that they bring the appropriate tools for the door peephole and a router for the post supports. I supplied all materials - as they requested.They showed up on time, but did not have a router to complete the post work. They even suggested that I use the same rotten post supports, which I didn't want to do. One of the two men, then asked where I wanted the peephole on my front door. I showed him a spot I had marked, which was at my eye level. Then I went into the house to contact their office about the confusion. The woman who answered the phone, identified herself as Tonya (she was the one I had been emailing with). Tonya said she didn't know why they showed up without the router (the tool needed for post replacement). She said she had put the info on their work order. I was shown the work order and it was not listed. I asked her about how we could fix the problem and suggested that she contact Randy (her husband and the owner) and call me back. I then went to check on the two workers. One had drilled the peephole, and to my horror, it was 4 inches above the spot I had marked and showed to them. Now, I have a peephole in my front door that is totally useless to me. At about this time, Tonya called me back without any resolution to the missing tool to do my porch post and then I told her about the peephole being 4 inches too tall for me to use. She asked me what I wanted. I suggested that the guys come back another day (when I would be home from work) and bring a router to complete the post job and I suggested a new door with a peephole at a height that I could use. She got frustrated and said she would call me back. A few minutes later, Randy, her husband (the owner) called. He was mad at me! He said I had made his wife cry. I asked why she was crying because I was the one that wan't going to get my job done that day and now my front door was messed up. He then said that sometimes, a customer could not be pleased and that I was obvously one of those. He said he had already asked his guys to pack up and leave and that I was on my own. He then complained that he was loosing money on "the deal" with Angie's list. I told him that I had detailed emails and pictures documenting what I wanted done and his company had agreed. I also said that if he called his guys off the job without completing it, or making arrangements to complete it, then I would report this to Angie's List. He said he didn't care. He said he didn't need my report and my opinion meant nothing to him. I have documented emails. I also had another company working at my home that same day (they were remodeling my bathroom) and they witnessed the incident. From the time the guys showed up to do the work until the time they left was approximately 30 minutes. My purchase was for 3 hours of handyman services. Not only did I not get the service, now I have a messed up front door, and I'm out the money I paid for the deal. And, this company tried to make it my fault and wished me luck in getting the work done and/or my money refunded. read more

The work was done quickly and was very professional. I noticed the workers were using safe techniques while doing the roofing. They were conscientious about safety and the quality was top notch. read more
