We hired Argi Tile to install a heated tile floor on our main floor of our home. He constructed…read morethe heating mat then set it in a thin layer of concrete. He then tiles the entire main floor of our home. He left wiithout testing the heat and when we turnd it on we got no heat. He came to our house 3 times, always wanting to charge us for his trip and time. After the third attempt to fix the floor he told us the heating element manufacturer had sold him a defective product. He refused further attempts to try to make the situation right and also told us "This is the fifth house I've had this happen to in the last teo years. There is nothing that can be done." As a laughable solution he istructed us to purchase hardwood flooring, at our own expense, and he would give us a discount to install it. This guy refuses to stand by his work, look further on the internet and you will find many others who felt ripped off by this company. Rjay B. Inver Grove Heights, MN

Roberto Briones does a number of different types of projects. Over the past 10 years his crews…read morehave painted the exterior and interior of my house, my neighbors house and a friend's house. His crews repaired my deck and redid the deck of a friend. He painted my kitchen and bathroom cabinets, did drywall work on two ceilings and did trim work on baseboards, closets and windows of a neighbors house. His team redid my entryway floor with new vinyl tiles. He is not the cheapest, but is far less than those who advertise or have fancy equipment. I have referred others to use him multiple times and so far I have not heard any negative comments. I can suggest adding him to your list when you need estimates for different types of work.

We had water damage on our first floor and honestly didn't know where to start. A friend…read morerecommended SIMESOTA Restoration, and I'm so glad they did. Oscar came out right away, walked us through the whole process, and gave us a clear plan (and a fair estimate). His team showed up on time, worked hard, and kept us updated the entire way. They pulled out the damaged flooring, dried everything, and then installed new wood floors that look even better than before. They even took care of some trim and painting to finish the job off. What I really appreciated was how responsive Oscar was--every question we had, he answered quickly and clearly. You can tell they actually care about the customer, not just the project. If you're in the Blaine area and need water damage restoration or mold removal, these are the people to call. Truly a top-notch local company.

We had such a great experience with Incline Exteriors. We've had leaking in our garage for 2 years,…read moreand have had Safe Basements, a landscaper, another general contractor all come out to try to fix it. No luck, and the wood had started rotting. We were really scared. I called Incline and they put me in touch with Pete, who is the nicest young man. He is so fast with communication - he responds within a couple of hours via email. He came right over, measured and gave me an immediate estimate - all the while telling me that he didn't think him installing gutters would fix the issue. I mean, he could have just sold me gutters, but they're HONEST people. So I ended up buying the gutters because I'd tried everything else, and they were very reasonably priced. Fast installation, and my husband just looked at them - they installed gutter guards without us even requesting them! That was such a nice surprise. So I had them out again to see if they could troubleshoot the leak. Within 10 minutes, the guy seemed to isolate the issue and made a recommendation. My husband just fixed it and the leak stopped. So Incline saved us a ton of trouble and money by just being good guys. Finally, I cross a dangerous intersection with my children everyday which is near their business. They're the most considerate drivers, and always pause to look for pedestrians in the crosswalk. I know that might be a silly thing to point out, but their attention to safety is important. I'll be a customer forever - thanks for everything.

Project bidding process and customer service was terrible. They came out for the appointment, but…read moredid not want to be bothered to write up a bid for my project, HONESTLY if you can't write up a bid for my project (which is just typing) Why would it be good hire you to fix the roof? They didn't follow up, i had to call them to try to get a price, and when i did get a hold of them they forgot about my bid, then just gave me oral guess 2500-3800K for my project and then call me back later the same day to give me another oral guesstimate of 6500-7000 K for roof repairs. They seemed unorganized, lazy, and didn't want to do my project. It would've been better if they declined early instead of wasting my time and theirs.

Presly and First Choice Handyman LLC were recommended to us summer 2022 by a real estate agent who…read moreused their services himself. We had some outdoor fascia trim that had rotted in some places, and had peeling paint in others. The parts on the second floor were notably harder to get to. We ran into a busy time for First Choice Handyman, so it took a few weeks to get on their schedule. However, it was definitely worth waiting for. Presly and Darius arrived when scheduled, cut out the trim portions that needed replacement and replaced them, painted these new pieces and any sections needing some additional painting, and finished in less time than originally estimated. So, the final price ended a little less than quoted! Kelsey started handling scheduling and communications more recently, and her responsiveness has been fantastic. We recently had them out to do a multitude of smaller repairs, and they were quick, thorough, and efficient. Definitely a winner!

This is the 3rd time in the last 4 years that we have used Dave's Flooring for one of our home…read moreprojects. That alone should let you know how we feel about their superior work and professionalism. For this project we wanted to install hardwood floors in our living room and upstairs landing. We just wanted to tie all the rooms together since Dave's did another job about a year ago. Everything is simple from the quote, demolition, installation and sanding to the finish. Communication is great and you always know where they are in the progress. Absolutely no surprises is the 3 times we have used them. Kelly did our second job and we requested him to do this job too. He is the absolute best. A perfectionist and super cool guy. Another awesome job by Dave's Flooring and the only flooring company I recommend to my friends.

I paid for 3 coats of poly and an additional "radcoat" supposedly to make the floors more durable…read more They sanded down the middle, did not do the corners or edges at all. After I complained they scraped off the poly and somewhat fixed the corners. Not great, but better. Applied one more coat and then the final coat so I got one less coat then I paid for. First time they left the doors unlocked, second time they left them not only unlocked but wide open in sub zero weather. The house was vacant so I guess they thought that was ok. When I asked them about it they said it was hard to lock old doors and hard to make old floors look good. I thought that was what they did? It was a 1940's house so not ancient. They have every excuse in the book ready when you call to complain. Not the same floor company I used to get for all my rehabs. Very sub par work which it appears to be from a variety of sub contractors. Sad that what was once a good business is now just a scam operation cutting corners whenever they can. Check all reviews - wish I had.

I was very happy with them. They replaced almost all my windows and doors, plus they did my siding…read more Everything was done on time. I found that everything was cleaned up. I bought a metal detector thing on Amazon and I never really used it. The siding guys removed something that they shouldn't have (a rain sensor for my sprinkler system) and SMA reimbursed me for the cost of the repair.

SMA Exteriors redid my roof in 2024 after a hail storm. In 2025 I discovered water leaking into my…read moregarage where the roof and gutter meet the wall. Turns out they never installed a kickout flashing/bump out in that spot. When I called, they came back and added it for free, but told me there "wasn't one there before" when they did the roof. To me that admits they knew it should have been there. Kickout flashing costs cents and is basic code/best practice to prevent water intrusion. Because it was missing, water ran behind the siding and rotted the wall sheathing. I had to tear off drywall in the garage and found the damage. When I asked SMA to help, they said it's not covered under warranty and isn't their fault. Their reasoning was the damage is "old" because there was never flashing there originally. My response: if the job was done correctly in 2024, we wouldn't be debating old vs new damage. I didn't open the wall until a year after their work, and the sheeting was rotten underneath. I spoke with owner Steve. He said, "we can agree to disagree" and that they aren't willing to help. When I asked why his crews or project manager missed this, he said they notice and add kickouts now, but "must not have known to add them before." Meanwhile my garage has water damage from work they did, and they aren't concerned with helping a past client. To make it worse, this house was purchased from a friend. SMA tried to use that against me, implying they would've helped the previous owner but not me because "my name isn't on it." That's a terrible way to stand behind your work. I've read their responses to other bad reviews - lots of talk about how long they've been in business and how they "treat everyone right." Yet multiple people are saying the same thing: issues get denied and not fixed. Stuff happens in construction. The difference between a good company and a bad one is whether they fix mistakes they caused. The most ironic part: this is a company that will argue with insurance that damage isn't "old" when it benefits them, but the moment a homeowner questions them, suddenly everything is "old damage." Can't have it both ways. Plenty of honest roofers in the area who will actually fix their mistakes instead of walking away. Look elsewhere

One contractor shows up every few days, parks illegally (well over a foot from the curb) then sets up a table saw across from his truck. Only one car can pass at a time, and he sets up like this every time he is here (which is nowhere near every day). I can't speak to the price or the quality of the work, but professionalism and speed are clearly not priorities for this company.
