Although he was priced slightly higher than the other contractors we obtained pricing from, the quality of his work was worth the nominal difference in pricing. I am an architect and my husband a user experience designer. We were very selective about who we choose to renovate my first own home. Zephyr worked with my husband and I throughout the entire process. He coordinated all new plumbing and electrical re-wiring (with a licensed plumber and electrician), made suggestions when we were trying to mitigate a fast-paced decision making process, and executed the work on-time and on-budget. Being involved in the trade, I cannot stress enough how difficult it is to find a contractor who is reasonably priced and does the job right. I will be working with Zephyr again on my next project. This particular renovation included the following to give you an idea of the scope of the project: * Refinishing original wood floors * 2 new full bathrooms * Complete replacement of all interior walls and ceilings * New electrical through-out * New plumbing through-out * New roofing * Brick re-pointing * 20 new windows installed * Insulated all exterior walls and roof * New Kitchen

We bought a fixer upper in 2008, and immediately hired a contractor to update our bedroom and bathroom. They burned us, and left us with leaks throughout the house. We ended up finishing the project ourselves, but not aware of some of the leaks and damage left behind. After this experience, we were hesitant to try again, hearing so many other peoples horror stories of their own with contractors. Finally the leaks became too much, and we needed to address them as well as move on with construction of our home. We were referred to Zephyr, and after his recent completion of our kitchen, we have already asked him to put us at the end of his list for our next project. What it will be, we haven't decided yet. But we have a whole house for him to repair, so we have something that needs to be done no matter what the order of repair is. Zephyr is very straightforward, and he is a perfectionist. He will give you advice along the way, and you should listen to him. He ripped out our kitchen, found multiple issues with leaks coming from our bedroom above (where the previous contractors installed french doors improperly), so he addressed that by taking out the doors and installing a new wall with windows. He replaced all our support beams in the kitchen, as well as added support so that we could build out on the 2nd floor. We told him our goals for the house in the long run and he prepared the house for those projects while working on it now. For example, we want to add a bathroom to our bedroom, so while he had the walls ripped open, he planned where the pipes would go and built enough room in that wall so that his next job would be prepped. Zephyr said he would have our kitchen done in 2 months and he delivered. Mitchell Custom Concepts may give you a higher quote than other contractors around, but they are worth every penny. Your project will be done properly, and by people who know what they are doing. Zephyr's whole team is great to work with. Whether Mike or Ian are at your house finishing something up, you can rest assured you are in good hands. Zephyr's vendors he uses for windows, floors, materials are all vetted and you know you will get quality materials/work from anyone he uses. We especially love our floors. Zephyr had his floor guy come in to sand and lacquer our floors, and I am beyond happy with the result. Before Zephyr and his team worked on my home, our basement would flood with 1-3 inches of water during rainstorms. Now, we don't get any standing water at all. Zephyr understands that your house is an investment, and he will address your biggest problems first, then work his way out. With us, he addressed all our leaks before we did any cosmetic work. I live on a pretty nosey South Philly street where all my neighbors watch whats going on with the rest of the neighbors all day long. Well, all I heard from my neighbors was "Your contractor was bringing in big pieces of lumber today. You must be getting a lot done!" "your contractor was here all day working!" and "Those guys working on your house are working hard. You must have hired good people". Yeah, we did hire good people.

My house is old, dating back to the turn of the 20th century, and has all the problems and peculiarities associated with old houses. Hammertime did the work very professionally and competently. They were very careful to clean up at the end of every day, always came when they said they would, and were pleasant and informative throughout. The job was delivered as promised. When a minor leak caused by a bad solder joint in the shower diverter (performed by a subcontractor) caused damage to the plaster ceiling of the room below, Matt Hammer, owner of Hammertime, immediately took ownership of the problem, and brought in a plaster crew to make the repair, which they also did in a first class manner. I recommend Hammertime without reservation.

However , a new landscaping project was discussed and agreed upon with Paul who now seem to have ghosted with the deposit given to him. He dug up a large part of my yard with the expectation to start work after the rain subsides which has been a few days now but he's no longer picking up calls or returning messages (both voice and text). I'll strongly suggest you save yourself the headache and stay away from these guys. The replacement glass for my gas range which they broke is still hanging in limbo as well and they are all not returning calls. And to say that I gave Pierce additional tip after the tile work. Very sad!! Willing to change my review if and when Paul refunds my deposit for the landscape project. At this point I'll give a zero rating if the system would allow me.

We had John come out to finish our fence for our home and things were going well until the very end. Per the contract he was to install the gate and the lock we bought for it, and the full project per the contract had a third day of work put into it. He did only 2 days of work and we kept asking when he could come to finish the gate and install the lock- he kept confirming dates with us and then no-showing repeatedly. Since then, it's been pretty much a full month since we have heard from him. Would no longer recommend and absolutely would not work with him again, extremely disappointed it ended like this.

Working with Billy, the owner, was a complete turnaround. We were looking for a full home renovation, and during the initial site visit, Billy took the time to understand exactly what we were looking for and walked us through major choices, such as whether to keep the same footprint or expand the home. Throughout the process, he also presented the many smaller decisions, such as flooring, tiles, and cabinetry, in a way that made each decision more digestible. Once walls, plumbing, and the roof were opened up, there were some unforeseen discoveries that pushed our cost above the initial estimate. Billy had warned us this might happen initially, and we appreciated his transparency about each issue as it came up. One of the things that stood out the most was the honest and frequent communication throughout the entire process. Billy works closely with a number of trusted tradesmen across different specialties, which we believe helped keep the project moving efficiently. Throughout construction, we thought Billy was very fair about not charging us more when he didn't have to. Overall, Friends and Family Builders delivered quality work with integrity and professionalism. We're incredibly happy with the results!
