A technically proficient professional and an easy to talk to guy who explains things clearly and listens to your concerns and ideas. We hired Leroy White to take out an old, creosote-soaked chimney. It was a bit of a tricky job because it was in our living room and we have vaulted ceilings. He clearly explained how he was going to do it, calmly listened to our fears about chimney dust, holes in our roof, and broken floors, and then got the job done ahead of schedule! I would not hesitate to recommend him to anyone who is looking for a good mason in the area.

It's been over a year and a half now since we completed an extensive from-the-studs-out renovation…read moreof a 1907 building with Papi and Romano, and it just keeps getting better with age :-) We bought a magnificent apartment on the West End of Portland in December 2018 while living in California. To say that we started from the ground up is an understatement. Having chosen to work with Rick Romano and his crew from 3000 miles away, there are no words for the experience that we had and the product that they turned out. Yes, it took longer and cost more than we had anticipated, but as expected there were some nearly insurmountable challenges that came up along the way. The work provided by Rick and his crew; the extraordinary attention to detail in every single way can never be understated. They found ways to reuse every single original door and piece of hardware, while creating an entirely new space where those original doors became pocket doors, the transom windows/lights were reused in every place possible, original 1907 brick was exposed with doors realigned in the intention of John Calvin Stevens, the architect on our beautiful building, and every piece of cabinetry was created to perfection. As a design build firm, Rick and we worked out reconfiguring some of the original space and solved some issues of sound attenuation. For that we requested an outside opinion from our nephew, also an architect, who provided new and creative ideas. Rick was open to suggestions and ideas that were not his own, Chose to learn alternative ways of handling possible issues, and was gracious to a fault. He is a joy to work with (if not always the easiest guy to get a hold of :-) and every one of his subcontractors is top tier. I realize that it's been too long and that we haven't written him the review that he deserved, but it's nice to have lived in this beautiful space for some time now, and to appreciate him more every day. We cannot recommend Papi and Romano highly enough.

I needed front doors sanded and repainted. The owner Tracy , thought the doors were wood according…read moreto pics he requested. He didn't actually come to my house to see the doors so he thought they needed to be sanded and restained. When the handyman arrived he told me the doors were not wood but metal and would need to be painted. Then the price went up $400 for painting instead of staining. He bought paint, which we had requested black, and he painted the first door. While the door was wet, it looked black. But the next day when he came back, the door was actually very dark brown. So we asked him to get the right paint. Which I got charged for again. He redid the threshold. He took the iron bars off the doors and sprayed them with black rustoleum. I asked him if he could putty some large cracks on two big columns on our front porch. He said he could patch the cracks with putty and then would paint. He ended up putting some kind of weird bonding material all the way around the base of the column and you could see some kind of fiber in the bonding and then he painted it. He did this without asking me first. I was not happy at all with the way it looked. They called me after the job was done and said they would come back and see what they could do to fix the patch job. It's been over a week now and I haven't heard a word from them. I wouldn't recommend for these reasons. They said if anything were to change as far as their quote to me went, it wouldn't be more than 10% of the estimate. They gave me a price of $2400 for the doors and then wanted $400 more for painting instead of staining. What's the big difference? The paint they charged me for, which was the wrong color, was only $6.00. Why the $400 up charge? They should've come out in the first place to see what the doors were actually made of instead of requesting pictures. You live and learn. I will not use them again. Very disappointed. I will say they eventually came down on the price after it went up, and it was about $2500 instead of $2900 which they were going to charge me. The doors look good. The threshold was left the dark brown color though and I had to repaint it myself with the black paint. The columns look terrible.
