Jay Kushner an arrogant twit with a temper…read more We wanted a structural engineer to evaluate the bouncy floor joists under our first floor bath. Jay charged a fee (over $200) but then refused to provide us with a written recomendation or evaluation. Instead, he gave us an estimate for HIM to do the repairs using (conveniently) custom made bracing materials that only he has. Never once did he say that he would be charging us a fee so that he could tell us that only HE could fix it. How sleezy. After some back and forth where Jay displayed both his temper and his further lack of professionalism, we found another contractor who cheerfully provided an estimate (free) and solved the problem perfectly. Jay showed his pettiness by belitting and deriding the other contractor (who had nothing to do with our dispute with Jay). Maybe Jay knows his engineering - but ethics and civility are something he is clearly lacking. He is condecending and completely dissmissive of anyone who may question him. Just like I wouldn't trust a car dealer, I wouldn't trust Jay Kusher to do anything for us again.

Several years ago as a young, first-time home buyer I had just purchased a 1925 house in Portland…read moreand had Mr. Kushner do a "seismic retrofit" and other work on the foundation at significant expense. Things were friendly with him at first but after I had raised some questions about other work that the foundation needed that perhaps he might perform first (note here I intended to pay him) he said gruffly, "You already signed the contract." And directed me to documents included with the contract about liens against owners. Fair enough. But several years later I asked another contractor to repair some coating work Kushner had done on the foundation and after a cursory inspection he responded that the foundation's original construction had employed Willamette River sand and was too crumbly to receive a coating of the sort Seismic Technologies employed. In fact all of the gussets and bolted stays and anchors that Kushner had installed at a multi-thousand dollar price tag, given the condition of the foundation, were almost totally useless since in the event of a tremor the foundation would liquefy. In other words Kushner was either incompetent or negligent to not have recognized this negligent or he was maliciously taking advantage of a naive client. I would never employ him or his company again nor would I recommend his services to anybody else.

We would highly recommend Texco. We had an area rug cleaned by them. The quote was very reasonable…read more The rug was picked up from and delivered back to our house in 2 weeks. They were punctual with the appointment times we had set up and very knowledgeable and friendly. The rug looked and smelled (pet urine treatment) great! We will definitely use them when we have our other 2 rugs cleaned!! Thank you,

Daniel wasted our time and money! He was called for an emergency water leak / forced remodel--…read moreMajor delays because of this man and his shoddy service. He proceeded to perform mitigation. Or so we thought he did. We have to get additional mitigation out to correct his elementary work. There was a lot of moisture in the areas he claims to have mitigated. Please note: He falsely advertises he is licensed on Angi's list. Our discovery of his inexperience showed Daniel had an expired CCB license for over a year. He ripped us off and did not do the job he was hired for. There's a reason he has older reviews and nothing within the last four years. I advise anyone who comes across this review to look elsewhere. He will harass you nightly over the phone or for nothing at all. He will also reinforce his "customer service" and perform at a poor/mediocre level of service. Do not trust a word this man says. His "25 years of experience" claims are far from the truth. He will waste your time, money, and patience.

Results: The work turned out beautifully. Daniel completed all of the work on time and on budget. He was very professional, clean, prompt, responsive to changes, punctual, cost effective, and completed to the highest standard and quality.

I recently worked with PLI on a seismic upgrade exploration project on the Willamette River and…read moreArmando, Dustin and Salvador were a great crew to work with. They were extremely knowledgeable of their line of work and knew how to get the task completed in the time we had onsite. They worked around the restrictive/limited access to the site, were prepared when we were met with unforeseen conditions in one of the borings, and efficient, all in 90+ degree weather. They were both professional and friendly and I will definitely be reaching out to them again when our next job comes up.

Every single person that we came in contact with from PLI was absolutely wonderful. The owner, the receptionist, and every worker that showed up to do the job.

We had several bids for the job - PLI was not the cheapest but we went with them based on our first impression. Very, very happy customer

I was recently put in tough situation when my residents did not vacate on time and was therefore put on a really tight turn to get the home ready for move-in as it was already pre-rented. Even though they were already booked, Kristen ,the office manager, worked with me to fit me in. If it wasn't for her and their flexible staff, I wouldn't have been able to meet my insane deadline. I am very thankful to have a vendor that I know I can rely on and will help me when I'm in pinch. Kristen is always fast, responsive and is a pro at planning. I highly recommend Americlean as they are competitive in pricing compared to our other vendors and are very communicative, the number one key to great customer service.

Easy to reach, honest, great work, and they keep good records…read more Unfortunately we need to rebuild our chimney, and fix a crack in our flue. I had our contractor friend take a peak after The Top Hatter reported all this last year, after I hired Top Hatter to clean out our chimney. The company I had hired the 2 years before, reported nothing of the sort. Our contractor friend agreed with Top Hatter's report, and said the price they quoted was fair. I misplaced the the quote/paperwork from last year. And wasn't even sure which company had made the report. I called Top Hatter the other week, inquiring if they are the company who had seen us last year. The lady who answered the phone was cheery, did a quick search for my account, and had all the notes from last year, in front of her, in the company's system, with in seconds. We will be hiring Top Hatter for the work soon. Top Hatter was also honest, in that the work could wait a few years. Only not to use the fireplace, until the work has been done. 2017 #19
