We couldn't be more impressed with the restoration work completed by Marcus and his team. From the…read morevery first conversation, he demonstrated professionalism, deep expertise, and a genuine commitment to bringing our space back to life. Every step of the process was handled with care. He provided clear communication, thoughtful recommendations, and a level of craftsmanship that's increasingly rare. He didn't just "fix" things; he restored them with precision and pride, making the final result even better than the original. The team was punctual, respectful of our home, and incredibly organized. They kept the project on schedule, maintained a clean work environment, and made sure we understood what was happening at each stage. We wouldn't hesitate to hire them again or recommend them to anyone looking for top‑tier restoration work. If you want quality, integrity, and beautiful results, this is the contractor you want.

Marcus and his assistant, Devon, came out yesterday to repair our back deck. The deck was built 20…read moreyears ago without professional guidance, so some of the woodwork was kind of wonky. The top part of the deck, made from teak, is still fine, but all the rails (aside from the main supports) and bottom of the stairs were pine, so many of those parts needed replacement due to wood rot. Additionally, the slats that framed around the porch weren't attached properly, so Marcus took them all off and reattached them correctly and securely. He also removed an electrical outlet that wasn't working and capped off the wiring. The baseboards were also replaced with PVC. It was a full-day project, and these guys worked hard. I can't say enough for their professionalism--from the quality work they did (plus explaining everything to me), and beginning and ending the day with cordial words. Such politeness is not a give in these days. The day began with a friendly greeting and ended in the evening with, "Have a nice night," not to mention polite interactions throughout the day. They also cleaned up perfectly, removing all the old wood. Even though they went beyond what we discussed, and Marcus did the extra work (wooden slats that weren't attached properly and a piece of wood behind the stairs that was replaced with PVC which we hadn't talked about initially) Marcus stuck to his original estimate. ***I would recommend these guys without reservation.*** I will also add that their pricing was very fair with an estimate given ahead of time. It was an stress-free day. Thanks Marcus and Devon.

Worst paint job ever…read more They 'completed' the job when I found they had 'lost' a piece of siding from the chimney...never told me or replaced it until I complained. The roofer who came out after told me that the side of the chimney that isn't visible from the ground was never painted at all. That has been verified in photos. They put the primer on when rain was scheduled...it ran off and they didn't redo it. Many places on the house were just not painted, you can see that the underside of each piece of siding is still the old color (beige). Neighbor who watched it done said they sprayed but didn't back brush at all. They did it in July 2019 and the paint didn't last, starting coming off in sections after two years. Also, they are just rude! Stepped on my drainage gutters and wouldn't replace. Put my front door rugs on top of my shrubs, killing one of them. Clean up was poor. Called me at work and yelled at me when I wouldn't tell my 10 year old child to open the door to give them some paint and then wanted her to write them a check? Told me it would be no problem to come back out after the roofers to do touch-ups but they didn't and they never came back to fix all the spots they missed (despite my documenting and sending photos.) Put drainage pipes on the 2nd story back crooked (it's in the front and very noticeably crooked.). They came back to 'fix it' and it's still not straight. Many other gutter downspouts were never properly re-attached. Never saw Brent after he took my check. Just don't.

He removed a lot of old wallpaper, patched up years worth of nail holes and imperfections, and even helped me pick new modern colors since I was so indecisive.

I heard nothing but wonderful things about Maretes and her company. I was really impressed with her…read morecommunication and the work she produced that I decided to hire her to build my salon suites at Good Hair Day MKE. I started working with her back in mid December 2014-March 2015. It was a MAJOR renovation job, 2000 sq ft, 9 suites, manicure/pedicure area, bathroom, and waiting area, all built from scratch. Custom build cabinetry/countertop with shampoo bowls installed in each suite, new flooring, electrical, plumbing, HVAC system, fire sprinklers, painting, putting together equipments, etc.  It was the most stressful time I went through from purchasing my salon to completing construction in 2.5 months in order to open on time. There were a fair share of unforseen stuff that occured which was out of our control. But Maretes was always quick to work around the unforseen stuff, made my life so much easier because she was on top of every aspect, regularly stopped by to make sure everything was running smoothly and made sure everything was up to code for inspection to pass. She also communicated with me on a daily basis, calmed down my nerves and went above and beyond. She even went as far as making sure the inspector would show up to the salon as scheduled and when that fell apart on the day of (the scheduled inspector called in sick at last minute), she kept calling the supervisor and demanded that they send another inspector which he finally gave in and showed up himself. If she did not go above and beyond to make this work, I would not have been able to open my salon as scheduled! And the best part was I had no idea of the hot mess that transpired that morning until after giving me the good news that I could officially open my salon. That alone shows us what a great, hardworking person she is, that she will take on any issues that arise just to alleviate your stress! I honestly do not know what I would do without her and her team. Another part that stood out about her is the fact that she throughly listened to all of my visions and was not quick to shut down any ideas I had.  If there were any part I was unsure about or changed my mind, she was quick to work around that. I hired her again around end of April 2020 while my salon was shutdown due to Covid. I had to install new floorings due to water damage coming in from outside building (which the condo association is working on). Maretes, her project manager, and her team was able to complete the flooring and repaint within two weeks and right in time to reopen. It was a wonderful experience working with her and her team again. And BONUS, they have a really cool set up where you can check through an app daily and see the progress they made, posted daily updates, information and pictures. I communicated with her project manager daily which was still great and very effective.  I will always stick with Maretes and her team for anything I need, especially future projects. I am hoping to expand and she will always be the person to go to!  She works really hard to be one of the best company, to go above and beyond, have excellent communication skills, makes sure she hires top notch reputable contractors, have trustworthy team staff, and will work with ANY issues you may have. She will always make sure you are left completely happy with the results!!

B&E General Contractors in Milwaukee is OUTSTANDING! You can go to their website and see all the…read moreNARI awards they have won, but let me tell you first hand...these guys are the best! (Also, I know my profile says we stil live in FL, but no, we are here in Milwaukee and had work done here in Milwaukee.) FIRST THINGS FIRST: The greatest proof that a client is happy is if they plan to come back...and WE PLAN TO COME BACK! We have a room addition we've been dreaming of, and as soon as it's in our budget, we're calling Mark Brick and getting this going! We want no one else. SECOND: The actual project they did for us: We have a very small little stone cottage-style home that had only one bath. There seemed to be no place to add a second bath without uglifying and shrinking a bedroom. But no! Mark found the perfect solution and B&E built us a private main-suite bath using space from three hallway and bedroom closets, and the result is SO SEAMLESS, people cannot believe that this bathroom wasn't ALWAYS here. And (I don't know how they did it), but we managed to not lose much storage. THIRD: It's gorgeous--prettiest bathroom we've ever had--and the work was precise and pristine. Everyone from carpenters to plumbers were top-notch professionals. FOURTH: How does this company respond to extra requests, questions, or issues? Again--perfection! Bob was our Project Manager, and no one could possibly be better. He always came over to check his people's work himself and even rolled up his sleeves once when he was not satisfied. We love B&E. We will use no one else next time. P.S. We had an independent inspector come afterward, and he approved and asked who we used. They took NO shortcuts.

It's not a "fixer" but it's old, and needs a lot of work to get things current. I already have an HVAC tech coming tomorrow to repair the existing unit until I'm ready to replace it and another guy coming to replace galvanized pipes throughout. Money isn't the issue, timing is. I have to spread tasks out, but I need to get everything done. I found B&E via NARI, which should be vetting the contractors. Apparently they didn't vet these guys, because they sent me an email back telling me to go to NARI to find a contractor to do what I want. Seriously? A contractor that DOESN'T want money? I suspect it's just Milwaukee, but I have to find another contractor. Meanwhile, it was important that I leave this review AND, if NARI takes negative feedback, I'll do that too. Anything and everything to ensure these guys go out of business.
