To make a long story short I purchased an out of state investment property in Indianapolis…read more However, I was swindled by the seller and the properties were not as they appeared. I was stuck in a horrible position with the property management company I was working with and being out of state only made it worse. I searched for a contractor to help me get the properties fixed and rented out so I could finally make some income. I found a Val here on yelp and we began to communicate. Since the very beginning Val has been responsive, kind, understanding, knowledgeable, professional and attentive. He provided me with estimates for work that need to be done and we went forward. The properties were rehabbed thanks to Val and not only did it and there. Val went out of his way to meet with potential tenants to show them the properties during the day while he was working on other projects for other customers. He must've showed those properties to a couple dozen people and eventually he helped me decided on tenants. Val even helped me find a good lease agreement. Does it end there? Nope. Val continue to help me and get the lease agreement signed by the tenets. He mailed me lease agreements, first months rent and deposits through money orders in the mail. That's it's right? Again no. Doesn't end there. Soon after the property is rented out small issues came up with tenets mostly regarding the plumbing. Val was quick to show up to the properties and take care of the issues. Of course none of this was free, but was it worth what I paid. Absolutely. Now is this the end? No. After this experience with Val I have decided on one thing. I will continue to invest in properties in Indianapolis and I will only work with Val. He is a one stop shop and I know that working with him I will be OK. Val thank you my friend for all the work you have done for me. You are a great contractor but I consider you an even better friend now.

We are first-time homeowners. When our gutters EPICALLY failed on Day 3, the day after they were…read moreprofessionally cleaned, I panicked. I contacted Val who immediately got back to me, did research on the property from the listing photos, and diagnosed the problem instantly. The next day, I got an estimate much less than another company's, and Val was continuously in contact with me at all times. We scheduled to do the gutter replacement about a week after the first conversation, and his crew arrived on time and got the work done without fuss. But here's the best part: not only did he look at the roof for me because I told him I was concerned about my inspection report's inadequacy, he surveyed almost everything on the exterior of my house. He identified roof issues, vent issues, pointed out rot, noted where things were installed cheaply, etc. He didn't pressure us into any work, he simply laid out the things my inspector should have caught, sent me pictures, and gave me advice for how and when to address some of the issues. He was honest in explaining much of this is on our dime. He was also frank in saying the inspector should give us the extent of the money laid out in the contract because he did such a poor job. He also was clear in that so long as I don't have stains on my ceiling, it wasn't an emergency, so I didn't feel pressured, I felt educated. I'm going to fix this house. I'm going to use Val to get it done. If I were you, I'd use him, too.

We have a smallish bathroom - the only one in the house - and Oscar came to give us a price on ripped down the walls, the ceiling, ripping up the floor and rebuilding the whole thing. We had a design but Oscar was SO helpful in leading us through important things to think about. We picked Oscar over other contractors because he seemed immediately like someone we could work with, who could we talk things over with and who would be practical with us as we worked through problems. And there were some. Termite damage, plumbing weirdness, uneven joists. In every case, Oscar talked over options with us, made recommendations and cheerfully proceeded with whatever we decided. In several cases, Oscar called us in before he completed some work to make suggestions that he thought would improve what we had originally planned -- and he was right every time. In addition, he was an absolutely professional and his work was flawless. We are thrilled with our bathroom and his amazing work. Thanks to Oscar and CSI.

My initial meeting with Mr. Fox was decent, pleasant and cordial enough…read more I told him I found him on Yelp. He showed up on time for the estimate, and gave me a fair price regarding installing a small gate on an existing 3 year old fence. I felt like he communicated well enough with me at the time, and also did some follow up planning and communication via text shortly thereafter. He didn't give me an official written quote for the job during the estimate phase except for a verbal mention/agreement; and then later in a text. On the day of the scheduled job, he showed up a bit late - approx an hour. I was a bit concerned and was really hoping he would show up, so I texted him to make sure he was still coming. My concern also stemmed from a previous text I sent him approx. the day before, and not receiving a response from him. I thought that was odd. My unsettled feeling on the whole situation stems from the numerous and incredibly unbelievable poor encounters I've had with various contractors overall in the past. I have been seriously and sadly conditioned to expect the worst now. It's really quite disconcerting and unfortunate. He texted me back and said he was on his way and showed up shortly thereafter. He had an associate/helper with him. When he arrived he looked and acted flustered and highly irritated. It quickly became clear that he wasn't interested in engaging with me, and it was very confusing, awkward and off-putting. It was like he was a totally different person. He was short with me and acted like he couldn't be bothered. I didn't understand the problem, and I didn't really say anything more to him after I briefly tried to confirm the job he would be doing. I even tried engaging with his helper, but he wasn't interested in being cordial either. He pretty much acted like he didn't seem to know what was going on. Honestly,.... I was very close to telling both of them to forget about doing the job because I was feeling super uncomfortable about the whole negative vibe and atmosphere. But,... I really wanted/needed a gate, so I tried to let it go. I promptly left them alone to do the job. The job didn't seem to take long at all. The gate looks adequate and functional enough; and so I basically got what I paid for. I paid him promptly after the job was completed and I asked for a receipt, but he didn't have one. I asked that he send one to me, and I eventually received it some days later. Regrettably, I would have to say that I wouldn't recommend his services because of the overall irregular experience.
