I was highly impressed with my first encounter with Justin. I could see right from the get go that…read morehe was extremely detail oriented. A perfectionist! Before I even gave him the job he offered to meet me at WNC tile in Asheville to pick out tile. He spent an hour and a half with me! And this without even knowing that he would get the job! He starts my job this coming week and I will update you on how it turns out. Justin finished my job a couple of weeks ago and he did a fantastic job! I'm very excited to have him back at the end of this year to renovate 3 more bathrooms for me.

WOW. If precision, focus, attention to detail, exquisite craftsmanship, honesty, thoroughness, and…read morethoughtfulness are qualities that are important to you -- then hire Justin Breitzke while you can. If you have to wait -- wait. He's a cut above the rest. We are in the process of renovating a 1925 bungalow. Justin was referred to us by a contractor and we will be forever grateful for the referral. Justin's first job was to rebuild the front porch and his attention to detail was immediately evident. He restructured the porch and then individually selected each piece of wood used for the tongue and grove floor he installed. At one point, a passing carpenter stopped by to look at the work, he thought it was so superior. As great as his carpentry is -- Justin's favorite thing is bathrooms! No surprise since his tile work is perfection. Justin redesigned, restructured, and then rebuilt our challenging, original bathroom. He finished by installing the most exquisite tile work imaginable -- floor to ceiling. The end result is amazing. Justin then moved on to our kitchen. He rebuilt the floor -- combining a former porch area with original kitchen floor -- and then installed radiant heat and tile. (It's no easy task to square up and float the floor of an old house to be level, yet when the cabinets were installed, no shims were needed.) Justin finished by installing a handcrafted subway tile back splash -- each piece a little different from the next -- once again, perfection. Did we mention the exacting prep process Justin employs before starting work and his clean-up afterward? Or the fact that his estimates match his bills that are provided in a clean and detailed manner? There are not enough superlatives to describe Justin, both as a craftsman and as a businessman. Hire him. You'll never experience a day of regret that you did. J. Ziros (January 1, 2014)

A contract with Archadeck WNC was signed in 4/2023 with a significant deposit required at the…read moresigning of the contract for trex flooring and installation as well as conversion of a covered porch to a sunroom with installation of new ceilings Work began in October 2023. the contract stated prefinished T+G for the ceilings Without approval from the homeowner, unfinished product was installed with Archadeck using then a "painter" to stain unfinished already installed ceiling material. In Archadeck's own words, it looked like a "s--- show", in reference to the painter's attempted staining. Promises made but promises not kept to replace the ceilings. 8 months later (actually 1 yr since work first began) the ceilings remain unfinished and with no contact from Archadeck in months and no response from Archadeck To inquiries. One could only conclude that Archadeck had abandoned the project, reflecting thus on the ethics and professionalism of this company, as well as the Quality of its product sold. I would strongly encourage readers of this review to look elsewhere for a decking and outdoor contractor.

We hired Sineath Construction to renovate and add an addition to our home in Fairview. Our first…read moreproject manager left the company after about two months on the job. He was replaced by a new employee who lacked the experience to handle our job, (search Jonathan Platt and Appalachian Builders Collective for his poor reviews). Our project was originally scheduled to take nine months and after fifteen months we were able to sign off although additional work needed to be done. Many of the original estimates Sineath Construction provided were low compared to actual cost (electrical budgeted at 14K with lowest bid coming at 28K) , and the project went almost 200K over budget despite us downsizing the project. Here are a few highlights of the major mistakes made: tried to hook up two pressure tanks to a well; installed floating staircase backwards; installed bedroom windows in wrong sequence and had to remove and reinstall; installed thermostat for heated floor in wrong room; installed siding around windows three times before done correctly; forgot to run water line to master bath and had to open dry wall to add - then failed inspection and had to reopen the ceiling to fix; installed the wrong bathtub; we had to source and order our own hardwood floor and tile because PM told us "Go to Carpet One." and refused (or couldn't) to compute square footage of rooms; failed 10+ county inspections, completed interior painting was such a mess that Sineath paid $8400 to hire our painters to fix it; exterior paint began to peel within a week of completion; forgot to run electric lines for kitchen stove, bedroom ceiling and all exterior lights; had to open entryway ceiling for the third time to fix missing wire for ceiling light; general lack of efficiency ordering materials, as we had multiple returns of pallets of materials; materials also disappeared from worksite. We were also told that most of the rework we wouldn't be charged for, but it often still showed up on our invoices. We had to comb through each invoice and find items that were incorrectly charged and to remind them to give us credits for materials returned. Efficiency never seems to be their concern since they are charging 18% on top on all invoices. We voiced our concerns to Brian and Ed during the process and were promised improvements, but the project continued to flounder from a lack of attention to detail and lack of management experience. Needless to say, we were disappointed with Sineath Construction and would never rehire and do NOT recommend them. They may have been builder of the year a few years ago, but with personnel changes, poor internal communications and growth, they cannot provide the attention a project needs.

Heart to Home (H2H) did an outstanding job on a studs-out guest bathroom remodel (Fall 2023) We…read morehighly recommend them! We were impressed with H2H at every stage of the project and thrilled with the results. They nailed every measure of success. They listened to what we wanted and clearly reflected our priorities and constraints in their proposal, detailed design and estimate. They exemplified professionalism, attention to detail, quality of work, clear communication and delivered on schedule and on budget. The few changes were mostly due to our requests. Any variations from the original plan/estimate were transparently discussed, approved by us, and tracked, so there were no surprises in the final invoice. We did our homework. We got 2 other proposals from well-established companies and 2 independent general contractors, in addition to H2H, before selecting H2H as the best value for the money. Their costs were more in line with our expectations and the owner, Tim Magee, was excellent to work with. He inspired great confidence that they could and would do this right and the project leads and crews delivered as promised!! Based on the stellar results, Heart to Home just started remodeling our primary bathroom!
