As a new homeowner, I have learned how difficult it can be to find reliable help for projects of…read moreall sizes. After recently replacing my windows, I needed someone to help me put up siding and insulation/drywall where I had converted an old door to a window. My first few attempts at finding someone struck out completely -- either my project was too small for the companies that I contacted, or the contractors that I spoke with were unreliable and seemed disinterested. Enter Jeff Richmer. I got his info from a friend who had used him for work around his place and had been very happy. I contacted Jeff and he promptly got back to me with a time to meet and see my place and give me an estimate. On the appointed day and hour, he showed up on time, handed me a business card, asked thoughtful questions about what I wanted, and took measurements and pictures. I was already impressed, but just a few days later when he sent me an emailed invoice that was detailed of what he wanted to do and very reasonably priced, I knew he was the guy for the job. He communicated the timeline well as the project date approached, and when the time came, he was done on schedule. I couldn't be happier with the finished result. My new window area looks amazing -- you'd never know that a door was there unless I told you because the trim work, siding, and paint are all so seamless. Jeff is truly a gem among home improvement professionals, and I can't wait to find my next project for him to do!

Jeff was recommended to me by two different friends. I hired Jeff to paint all my trim and doors in…read moremy home white. They were stained wood. His contract said he needed $400 deposit which I paid. The contract stated that he would sand and prep all areas. Apply 2 coats of primer and 2 coats of white paint. I advised him a few weeks later that I decided to get new windows so he would not have to paint around the windows. I also advise him that we had painted the entire home and I was getting the hardwood flooring finished. He said that he would protect my floors and walls. After he worked at my home for a week. He left me with a huge mess. Paint on my new floors, paint on walls. When I emailed him about the issues he said well this changed and then that changed. The only things that changed was I got new windows and he didn't have to paint them. I had also asked him if he included painting the shelves in the closets and he said he didn't but he could do them and it probably wouldn't add that much more in cost. I told him that would be fine. He ended up telling me that the $400 covered his expenses and we would just call it even. When he came to look at the job he said he would probably take the doors to his home and paint them. He did except for the exterior doors. All of my exterior doors now stick because he didn't let them dry and paint is all over the weather stripping. The paint is coming off my doors. He didn't even paint the top of any of the door frames. There is several light and dark areas in the paint. Some areas look like primer and no paint. It is going to cost me more money to fix what this guy messed up. I think he should have returned the $400 and some extra for new weather stripping, doors, and clean up. Beware!! Jeff doesn't do what the contract states. See pictures below you can tell he didn't sand anything and left white paint on my floors and newly painted walls.

Outdoor Solutions created our Outstanding Outdoors!!!…read more We've always spent a lot of time in your back yard - even in the winter months. We had aspirations of the features we wanted in our backyard. However, we had no idea of how to bring it all together. We met with Alfonso and shared our thoughts. He asked a lot of questions to assure he knew what we wanted and took photos. Within a week or so (it was January), he developed a spectacular design! We discussed options, plant choices and kept the design in our budget. Alfonso communicated with us every step along the way. He kept us posted as to the start date and what to expect next as each day progressed during the renovation. He and his team were pleasant while working at our home. Any and all concerns and issues, plant warranty items, etc. were addressed with professionalism. Alfonso stands behind his work! What was just our backyard has become our Oasis! We are outside every day enjoying the beautiful landscape and features we've always wanted!! Thank you goes to Alfonso and his team at Outdoor Solutions for making the design a reality!! We highly recommend Outdoor Solutions for any and all of your landscape needs and dreams!

Used MHB Landscape service because it was recommended to me by Yelp for some landscaping work at my…read morehome. During the project he moved an expensive piece of outdoor furniture and did not move it back after completing it, because of where and how he left it, it ended up being damaged and having to be replaced. I provided all the information to him about the original cost and the cost of replacement (which was less than what I originally paid), explained my attempts to get just parts for it from the manufacturer instead and the video of it being damaged. He never responded to my request for remedy of the damaged furniture when I sent him the proof of price. The rock work was okay. He changed the scope in the middle of the job and didn't finish one section of it, so I got pretty confused on how the final invoice amount was arrived at. From the amount of work and materials we removed from the quote midway through the project to the final product, it didn't seem quite right. Also, he didn't put the landscaping fabric under the edging, so I have a ton of unexpected weed control I have to manage now when the purpose of installing the rock was to be lower / easier maintenance because, again, I have a disability that affects my mobility. He's a hard worker I just wish he would have made things right regarding my damaged property. He told me his insurance doesn't cover wind damage and did not offer any other remedy. If he'd worked with me to replace the furniture that was damaged, I would have given him a higher rating, but as it is, this is my honest opinion of the value, quality and overall customer experience I received. I can't recommend this business at this time and will be letting the division of Yelp that oversees contractor recommendations know as well since I found him through them.

Julio came over to discuss the project and what I wanted done. I needed a large limb removed that had fallen and lodged on my roof. I needed the limbs over my roof trimmed back. And I needed a massive, half-dead limb removed from my neighbor's tree that covering and threatening half my deck. I'll bet it weighed in at a ton. He explained how he would do it, gave me what I considered a reasonable price, and we set up a time. With other companies I've had bent gutters, cracked sidewalks, fence and deck boards. Not with Julio. He and his crew were careful and meticulous. Everything was either handed down or lowered by rope. It was cut up, hauled through the alley, and chipped at the curb. He showed me before and after pictures of the roof. And when they left, my deck and sidewalks were cleaner than when they got here. If you're going to get estimates on tree work; definitely include Julio Tree Service in the mix.
