My Dad, who would hire 'casual labor' from time-to-time, used to say "pay peanuts, get monkeys". Obviously, not true today with this franchise. [Contrary to "Mary G's" review ... you decide if it's "fact or fiction" ... I e-mail'd them the sketch, they gave me a quote, guy shows up and charges me $150 for saying the quote's not valid; stupidly I allow them to come back after assurances from the "boss", only to find out after the callback that they charged my CC without my approval!] Would never again consider them ... not even to clean out a birdhouse. Be skeptical of the reviews which claim they were less expensive than others [unless it's a neurosurgeon]. In summary, I'll not longer use Yelp.

We needed a pergola and old shed taken down as it was becoming unstable and unsafe in our yard…read more Within almost minutes of reaching out I had a response from Ace and very clear communication of an estimate based on photos I emailed over. Casey came out the same day I approved the estimate and did an EXCELLENT job. He was so kind and easy to work with. He was super careful on our property as well. This was not an easy job as the structure was between two fences and he managed to get it all down without a scratch on the fences. He was so fast but also so skilled I couldn't believe it and I feel like he went above and beyond for us making such good use of his time here. Thank you!!

He is professional and efficient, and always makes sure the job is fully complete before he leaves. I will continue working with him in the future.

I hired Alan to replace cedar shakes and do some finishing woodwork on the exterior of our home…read more We met Alan based on a referral from another home services company. From the beginning, Alan was methodical, communicative and prompt. He showed up to give us an estimate and answered my numerous questions about the job at hand. By the end of the same day of his initial visit, we had a detailed estimate in email, which we approved. Our house was remodeled in the past with uniqueness and quality materials in mind, but with 80% completion on many aspects. We needed a contractor who could help complete our unique vision. Alan replaced a large area of cedar shakes on the back of our home, helping erase the evidence of a decayed deck we previously removed. He also crafted a solution for a corner where the previous homeowner didn't seal up the house properly. Alan was organized and gave great attention to detail. He communicated his arrival and departures each day, and ended up finishing ahead of schedule. I am super happy with the level of attention that was paid to each detail of the job, and will hire Alan again for a future project.

Brendan worked quickly, efficiently, did a great job and cleaned up so it looked like he was never there. except the giant wall beds expertly installed. Def my go to in the PDX area for any future jobs coming up.

I couldn't be more pleased with the work Brendan did converting my decrepit back-of-the-garage…read morespace into a beautiful, functional laundry/pantry/workroom. He built, replaced, and insulated walls; added doors and a window; mounted floor-to-ceiling pantry cabinets; and handled all the trim and molding. Nothing was out of scope, and whenever an issue arose, we discussed it and moved forward as a creative team. He and his assistant also tackled a handful of small household jobs that had been nagging me--replacing the floor of the kitchen sink, adjusting the door to accommodate pull-out bins, and reviving a sagging garden gate I'd been quoted $3,000 to replace. As others have noted, Brendan is communicative, helpful, and upbeat. He is highly skilled and completed everything on budget. That's practically unheard of in a remodeling project. Oh, and for women homeowners: it's refreshing to work with a contractor who treats you with friendly respect and collaboration. If you have a project in mind, reach out! You'll feel lucky to have gotten on his schedule.

Our family recently moved to the West Linn area and were looking for some assistance with smaller…read moremaintenance and larger planned projects around our new home. After calling and meeting with several contractors and companies in the area we settled with Attar at Pacific West Homes & Renovations. Attar immediate stood out as both responsive and knowledgeable regarding our various needs. We recently completed a repair in our home and I am happy to say that our experience was very positive. From the initial quote, scheduling the work, and follow up Attar has been attentive through the whole process. The work was completed to budget and on time. Additionally, we had some questions a few days after our work was completed and Attar responded immediately. This is especially telling about their company ethics. Many services will have delayed response times or require chasing after payment has been made against a project. I definitely recommend Attar and Pacific West Homes & Renovations for your home improvements needs.

We contracted with Attar and had high hopes. He wrote a time and materials contract, but we told…read morehim we had a pretty tight budget for our tub remodel and he said he thought we could do the work within the dollar amount we gave him. He was very slow and ran us way over budget (he essentially billed us 89.00 per hour to put in tile, and he seriously billed us for 48 hours of tile work to put in 45 pieces of 12x24 tile). When we would ask for estimates to finish, he gave an estimate, and then took twice as long as his estimate. When we confronted him, he literally said, it's time and materials, it is what it is. We finally had him stop work when he was close to 50% over our original estimate (and he STILL wasn't finished). The final quality of work was so bad, we had to hire a new contractor and have all the tile torn out and start over. Be careful!
