"Upon initially contacting Mr.

Louisville Lighting Companies Provider Name Locked

, I was pleased that he was able to meet me that afternoon for an initial meeting. I explained the many projects I wanted done, putting emphasis on my basement. It was

15 and I needed it done by Feb 6 for my annual superbowl party. He tossed around some ideas and then offered to take me to two homes he'd done the bar for. My wife and I went along and saw two beautiful bars--one was a home he'd built and the other was his home (he built it as well). We took ideas from each and started a plan. In two days, he had a quote and more ideas. We scratched off a couple of his ideas but kept many more. I'm very glad he didn't just listen to what I wanted--instead he had input, really good input. Sometimes I'd tell him "no I definitely want it this way" and he'd be fine with that. Other times I asked "what do you think" and usually I was very impressed with his ideas and we went with them. His estimate was higher than I expected but not ridiculous. After seeing the work he could do, I was happy to pay a premium for the better quality. I stressed the Feb 5th deadline (the party was the 6th) and he said he could do it, no problem. We were only 6 weeks away. I was concerned but he reassured me. Once I said GO, I was surprised how quickly he started working. The walls were ripped out the next day and we were planning each phase. He would call me daily with updates and ALWAYS (and I mean always) either answer my call or call me back within an hour. His responsiveness was amazing. We didn't live in the house at the time (planned on moving in just before the party) and every time we went over there we were surprised at the progress. Anytime I asked him about the plan, he had it to the T. "Drywall on Tues, Painters on Wed, Stone is coming next Monday, etc". And the plan was always stuck to. The workers he used were nice and professional. He asked us a few times to go somewhere to pick out a stone, or a paint color, or light fixtures, etc. Sometimes we'd tell him to pick it, sometimes we'd pick it. When we picked it, obviously we liked it. When he picked it, it always worked well with our theme. Throughout the project, I was constantly throwing challenges at him. The biggest was the soda gun system. He had never installed one and neither had I. I had bought it off the internet. Well apparently they are WAY more complicated that you would think. Hook up the system to the water line, add some syrups and CO2 right? Wrong! It was so unbelievably complicated and yet he was at home researching it at night and working 12 hour days installing it. He knew how important the deadline was and I could tell there was NO way he would miss it. Not only was he ahead of schedule, but he even was able to handle all my challenges in time. My extra challenges should have added on time, but he just worked harder. When the party came, everyone was so impressed with my basement. I was so proud. About 1 hour into the party, the kegerator stopped working. I was in panic mode. I called him and asked him what to do. He was busy with his own life (it was sunday at 5pm) but he came right over and fixed it while the party was going. I mean--the guy is a champ. I can't say enough about him. The crowd cheered him as he left to return to his own superbowl party. Seriously, what kind of contractor would do that? Oh and on the final bill, there was no charge for that service call. He's not only a good contractor, he's a good guy. In addition to the amazing bar, which worked perfectly aside from the kegerator hiccup (not his fault), he also did the following odd jobs for me: Built a custom wood display area for my world war 2 antiques, built a custom stand and hookup (and installed) a slot machine I had purchased, worked closely with my home-automation installation team to make sure all the lighting was hooked up correctly, helped me on my shower redo--I had mistakenly let my friend 'contract' the work for it and he messed it up 5 different ways. Mr

fixed it every time. He also had my concrete floor stained, some carpet installed, two doors widened. I'm sure there were other things, but I can't remember them all. I just know that now I have a GREAT basement with an amazing bar and I couldn't be happier with Mr

. I actually had many projects in the house quoted by him and 2 other firms. He was either the lowest or middle on each. I feel like the basement was expensive, but after seeing those other quotes, maybe he isn't all that high. I know he is worth it though, and there's NO DOUBT I will be using him for every project in the future. I hate to sound like a sales pitch, but I really am just super impressed with this guy. If you want quality work, on schedule, on budget and a contractor that will give input, answer your calls and keep you updated, hire

"They were very good. They arrived promptly and they were polite and clean about their work. They knew what they were doing because when I brought up some other work I thought I might need, they assured me that it was not necessary."

"I had to have my mom come over to my house to wait for these guys because I work out of town. They showed up on time and installed the box and the light in the bathroom, but left a hole in the wall that I still haven't figured out how to repair. They used two people for the installation, and I was charged for two people even though it was obvious one person would have been enough. I requested they install the recessed lights, but they told me they couldn't complete the work that day and that they would have to come back the next day. I was very clear about the requirements in our initial phone call. If they were unable to complete the work because of their availability, they should have made it clear to me before I made arrangements for someone to come over. But Mom stayed over an extra night to honor their request. Once they left the house on Day 1, they never came back and did not return my phone calls when I tried to contact them. The individual they sent over to supervise the work was named Art. He does not listen to anyone. It became very obvious very quickly that my third request to ask for solutions for the other lighting project in my house was a waste of time. If Art is assigned to your project, request someone else. So what I ended up with was being charged $150 (including a $90 "trip fee") for the improper installation of one bathroom light. Needless to say, I cannot recommend using these guys for anything. "

was a great designer to work with. He was able to pick up on my vision and color scheme and helped me make some great choices to finish the look, all from the decorative tile I had already decided on. He worked to find just the right fixtures and materials to keep within my budget. Installation tool considerably longer than expected, due to unforeseen breakage (during shipment) of 6 x 6 ceramic tile and reorder spanning a holiday weekend. Another issue was the way the carpet from the hall and bedroom joined the new tile in the bathroom,

had a carpet company come out and correct this issue as soon as I let them know it was not acceptable. A month after completion I asked them to remove the clear caulking and replace it with white caulking in the corners of the shower area due to some unsightly cracking of grout visible underneath the clear caulking. There was no actual damage as the caulk covered the cracks, it was purely aesthetic. Additionally, I found out later that one of the contractors working on my project had not been with them very long, so he had some experience issues. Next time I will be more proactive in checking this out before the work starts."

and his two workers did an excellent job. My home is about 60 years old so installing these lights was a bit tricky. The guys did a great job minimizing the mess and were able to install the fixtures without cutting into drywall."

came over as scheduled to discuss options with us. He showed us several predesigned packages to choose from. He then took measurements and made some useful suggestions for the location of the master bath, suggesting that we also had room for the walk in closet. The crew showed earlier than the scheduled time and waited in their truck until the time they had arranged to start. They quickly began to tear out the first bathroom. They were very good about putting down cardboard to protect our wood floors and took care to keep dust to a minimum. This was the case throughout the project. In spite of having people go on vacation during our remodel, the crew had someone over to work at least part of almost everyday. On most days there were at least two people here. Early in our project, some of the crew was called upon to help us with some extra work, after their normal working hours were over. We had an unexpected, unrelated plumbing problem in the kitchen and it was fixed quickly."

"From the initial estimate to all the work, they were here when they said they would be. They worked professionally and neatly and cleaned up as they worked and made sure the area was clean before they left. The quality of work was very high. The price was reasonable. Who could ask for anything else? We are totally satisfied and we recommend them highly."

"They came when they said they would. They do excellent work, I never have to worry about the workmanship. They're nice people and they clean up. I can always reach them but they're so busy I was on a waiting list. They are excellent people."
