We signed a contract in late January 2019, and work was not done until the end of September 2019. The delays were all on Ofir. He used our job as a fill-in between other jobs, even though he promised it would receive his undivided attention. At one point in time he lost his entire crew. He was a two person operation for most of the time. The person working for him bad-mouthed the work he did. The place was always left a complete mess. He was never on-site to supervise his flunkies. So many things had to be done twice or even three times. Garbage was piled in every room and outside as well. It never seemed to be removed! Ofir was rude in his responses to our e-mails. One time he told me to wait until he was finished to complain. He left a expletive-laden voice mail on my husbands phone. Unless you want sloppy workmanship and endless delays, don't even think about using OM Construction.

Although I have not had great experiences with contractors, I can only say good things about JRP…read more They recently paved my deck and pool area and did a great job!

They made my backyard look like I had a visit from the Backyard Smashers (a popular TV show which transforms ugly backyards into a homeowners paradise. The people I dealt with could not have been nicer or more knowledgeable. They gave me everything I asked for and more! I shopped around before selecting JRP and found that their price was competitive and they kept all their promises. The job was completed on time and my family, friends and I will enjoy the final outcome for years to come. Great job JRP and best wishes to John, who it was a pleasure dealing with!

The small sample of public reviews should have been a giveaway... However, we still hired…read moreChris/Privilege Construction to do what was supposed to be a full gut renovation. I would recommend anyone looking to hire Chris to keep reading, and then think again. We found Chris through Sweeten.com, a good website for obtaining vetted contractor names. However, they only make money from contractors and solely support the contractors if the project goes south - go read their reviews. First, the good with Chris. He is a yes man, something we originally liked. He says yes to everything. Every idea, every suggestion - he can do it all, so he says. This gets annoying after a while when you realize he's just saying what you want to hear. Chris is relatively easy to get ahold of. He picks up the phone more often than not, or will return calls promptly. Also, he's not a penny pincher when it comes to change orders. We made plenty of changes throughout our contract without any fuss from Chris having to charge us extra. Now for the bad. As a general contractor, Chris does not have the deep rolodex you'd expect from someone leading your project. He doesn't have a list of 5-6 subcontractors lined up ready and waiting on jobs. We had to wait weeks for a plumber to show up and had to bring in our own HVAC company. His workers and subcontractors are disrespectful and careless, they don't think two steps ahead. We had damage to a brand-new fiberglass tub due to a worker wearing boots in the tub and there was the time they left brand new molding outside in the rain, thus ruining it. Often it felt like his guys would measure once and cut twice. During our project we had to place three separate molding orders and had to place additional orders for backsplash, flooring, and bathroom tiles due to waste and/or incorrect measurements, all of which came from out of our pocket. Back to Chris. He's not a good communicator and he has poor project management organization - two important characteristics you expect in your GC. Twice there were 2+ week periods when we had no workers at the house and there were multiple days when only 1 guy showed up. Chris would tell us to order finishes yet they would sit around for 90+ days well past their return date if we didn't like it once installed. They would paint before finishing the floors or demo a perfectly good bathroom we were using before the new bathroom was ready. When a new job was being started there was little to no notification from Chris. On top of that, there were multiple times he would leave town for family vacations without any prior notification. And for the icing on the cake, Chris burned our house down.

irst and foremost, I can't recommend Privilege Construction  highly enough for any kind of…read moreremodeling or construction jobs you may be doing. We recently used them to remodel our kitchen, bathroom , hallways and living area in our home and have been beyond happy with the process and the results. Being a realtor and having year of experience in property development, I have worked with many other contractors and now know when I'm working with someone who knows their business and knows it well. Chris takes genuine pride in the quality of the work his company and men do and rightfully so- they are top notch! Although I wanted to use Privilege Construction because it came highly recommended by my friend,  I wanted to also get bids from other renovation contractors for our remodel just to be compare. When compared with the other bids, I was very impressed with Privilege's pricing and the level of detail outlined in his bid. Another important factor for me in choosing the right contractor was the total time involved it would take to complete our renovation. We needed our project completed in eight weeks. We knew it would be tight and other contractors told us so but Chris absolutely pulled through for us. Our kitchen and bathroom look  amazing, and both are so much more functional than before. We were absolutely delighted (and surprised based on experience with other contractors) that the remodel stayed on schedule and within our budget.  He installed new plumbing, new electrical and heating. Chris has multiple contacts throughout the city and was able to provide me with numerous sources so that I can compare different types of finishes I wanted and also the appliances I wanted!  He was very helpful through the decision making process.   All the work performed is of the highest standard. Remodeling, (whether it is big or small) can be very stressful- it is a big chunk of money and you are entrusting someone with your money and your precious home! Having Chris from Privilege as our contractor really helped alleviate our concerns and I will definitely be calling him for any future renovation needs we may have. Thank you Chris!

They do contracting jobs and have been a local business for generations. I recommend them for contracting jobs but they also cater to very interested passers-by. If you're looking for decorative plaster objects, it is exciting to see the level of effort they put into each project from sculpting the base of a column to the level of detail that goes into simple pieces. Their turnaround is quite quick too - I saw an unfinished mold and two days later it was expertly finished for pickup! Highly recommend.

We couldn't be happier with our choice. It was our first major renovation, and there was a learning curve for us on how a job like this gets done, and how much it will cost. We were working with an architect and engineer as well, but we were constantly asking Rafal for his input on what was suggested by these other professionals. This was very unusual, usually, it's the reverse. Rafal was patient and offered useful guidance as we planned our renovation. Now, our house is the prettiest on the block. Rafal does high-quality work and takes pride in it. He doesn't cut corners and will go the extra mile to ensure a quality result. His skills and that of his crew impressed the architect. His crew is very respectful, clean, trustworthy and friendly We are extremely satisfied. If we need renovations in the future, we will be using Red Oak Renovations again.
