Washington General Contractors

"Our project was hampered a great deal by the failure of the general contractor's workers to timely complete portions of their tasks. Thus, 's crew had to do a lot of working around others and postpone some of their work until the other contractors were through. They did the job they were contracted to do plus quite a few other ...more tasks that cropped up during this period such as re-painting portions of our basement apartment, replacing the entire basement apartment ceiling, and doing carpentry work that the general contractor's workers overlooked or had done incorrectly."

"In all cases, Ransom Co. was on time, had lower estimates and costs than other companies, did neat and conscientious work and gave good advice. Now I would depend on Ransom to do any work I have, simply because is trustworthy, does excellent work, is on time and is cheaper than other companies. My custom ...more built bookcases are so lovely that fellow condo residents comment on them and several have asked me for

's phone number as a result -- people peer into my front windows (unfortunately) to see some really unique built in shelves.

is clever, and thinks outside of the box -- he used an unusual type of paint for my bookshelves and as a result, I wipe them clean with a sponge."

"I was referred to these guys from a contractor that I had spoke with while researching subs for my project. The contractor said they were some of the best guys he knew. They are now the best guys I know! The came for an estimate the same day I called them, and although their original ...more price was a little higher than my husband and I were hoping to spend, they were very willing to negotiate. They arrived on-time to begin the job a couple days later, and got to work immediately.

(

owns the company, and

is his cousin) was incredibly friendly and helpful, as were all the guys. The work was done quickly and perfectly! My husband and I had intended on installing baseboards in one room and painting our entire condo on our own. However, because of delays with our flooring project, we simply didn't have the time to do it ourselves as planned. I called

and he worked with us to negotiate a price we could manage and him and his guys came back to help us get the painting and baseboards done too. He knew that we were trying to get the work done by a specific deadline, and he truly seemed to care about helping us meet that deadline! I definiely reccommend

to everyone- we will absolutely use them again!"

" and his team are very good to work with. Always arrived on time, made adjustments to meet our schedules, did work beyond what was originally scoped out in initial walk through. This is the second time that we have used . They also drywalled our basement. We will use them again for future projects. A+!"

"DO NOT SHOP HERE! Total Incompetence!! That is the only way to describe my interaction with . I bought a replacement piece of glass for my table. Unfortunately, the glass was 1/8 of an inch too long. I had my misgivings about sending back, as the original order took several weeks to receive and I didn't get a price quote ...more before getting the glass, but decided to send back. After three months of

being totally unresponsive to my requests for a status update, the glass finally arrived. I was shocked when

demanded that I pay additional fee for the new glass. And, then had the audacity to say that I was lucky because the glass was lost by the supplier, so I could have been charged more. Let me repeat. I was lucky because

's supplier took three months to admit that they lost my glass!!!

needs to look up luck in the dictionary."

"Remarkably, was NOT the carpenter I hired to do the job. He arrived on the day of the installation without any particularly reliable recommendation, because there was illness in the family of the carpenter I had originally hired. I was completely panicked ! This was an expensive installation -- actually much more than I intended ...more to pay.

immediately put me at ease. Though he had taken over at the VERY last minute, he clearly knew EXACTLY what he was doing. He is truly a dying breed, the kind of carpenter one might have expected to find a century ago -- clearly enjoying and taking pride in his work, never rushing, never cutting corners, doing the job the way YOU asked but willing to make suggestions as well. He worked for four long days, outdoors in sweltering heat with the company of many mosquitos, but never lost his smile and his gentlemanly manner I have worked with MANY carpenters. I can't imagine hiring anyone but

for any job in my future."

"Fantastic work. was punctual, hard working, easy to get along with, and very skilled. He is an absolute perfectionist. The work took about a week longer than expected, but I kept adding on additional work, and the original work was far more complex than originally anticipated because of the age of our home and the ...more "renovations" the previous owner had made. None of this phased

. He just made adjustments and kept working. The finished product of the closets and the basement is amazing. Looks like a new place. We will be using

again for any renovation work in the future. "

"He does everything that has to do with remodeling and construction, form small jobs to large ones: from putting in new floors to fixing plumbing and installing installation. He also does gutters and roofing. He can do almost everything, and if he can't he can hire some one to do the job. He is reasonable. He generally hires a team of people to work ...more under him. Sometimes he will do the job himself, other times he will oversee the team. He is very dependable, I have been using him for about 10 years. "
