Royal Palm Beach Fireplace Remodel

It went very well and we highly recommend this company. Hugh DeMaio, the owner, was very thorough in explaining the repairs that were needed and why. We also purchased a new frame & doors for the fireplace and found Hugh to be extremely knowledgeable as he presented our options. He worked with us to find a frame & doors that are cosmetically appealing to us, fit in with our decor, and were affordable for us. In addition he presented us with ideas for giving a finisining-off the area that connects the granite sill to the fireplace floor. He was able to track down matching granite and perform the work necessary to give our fireplace a beautiful, smooth finished-off look.

Keating and Moore (my contractor) sent this company a check for $10,000 to purchase a Napolean Fireplace, from where the man we talked to is supposed to be an official representative. The fireplace was never ordered or delivered. Seth Diggs was contacted by email, text, and phone for several weeks. Finally, we contacted Napolean directly who said that he tried to purchase a fireplace and that his credit card was denied (around Sept 17). Through all of Seth's lying and conniving and misrepresenting through his company and our purchase, he should be put in jail. This is a sham. Furthermore, we finally have found a tremendous Napolean fireplace representative named Scott Krenz who works for Fireplace & BBQ. The final result and installation was completed on November 15th. FINALLY. My strong advice, never call or text or contact Seth Diggs or Paramount Home Technologies for ANY projects related to your home, AT ALL.

Hiring Milton is one of the best decisions we've made recently! I called yesterday afternoon, told him what we needed done and, at his request, texted him a picture of the fireplace. He said he could do it today and that it would take him between a couple of hours and the whole day, depending on how it was attached, etc. He came promptly when scheduled, and did the most professional job! He was neat, clean, polite, careful, and clearly knowledgable. He didn't rush through the job - he took time to place dropcloths, vacuum regularly throughout the project so the black dust created wouldn't get spread throughout the house, discussed every possible outcome with us at each stage. He didn't dawdle either. He just worked steadily and carefully and got the job done. The whole thing came out better than I ever expected. I am already making a list of additional projects for him to do.

Ryan was very quick with the estimate and we felt his price was reasonable for the work to be completed. They arrived on time as scheduled to begin the work and the project was completed in a timely manner. Our project was a custom built in for a TV and linear fireplace with ceremic tile. Everything looks beautiful and we couldnt be happier!

They demanded $146 before scheduling. Then they would schedule a date and a time and never show up. This went on for a week. The last time they scheduled I called first thing in the morning and they said they were late in the day and I went and did errands and called back and they stated they were already here and I was not at home. I explained they initially told me that they would be late in the day. I still have my problem and I am probably out $146. They stated they cannot reschedule until next week.

It was a pleasure working with Brandel Masonry. They are very professional and provide a quality product. We would not hesitate to use them again, and we highly recommend them.

We had such a wonderful experience with Cameron and Associated Builders. Everything that was promised was given plus more. I have done many demolitions before, but never from a distance. This is a bit of a challenge for all, but Cameron was so great and made everything perfect. I highly recommend Associated Builders.

Carl showed up ontime during our 5 day project, picked up all materials and delivered them to the house. I joined him during the initial materials purchase and put needed lumber and other materials on my credit card. That was my choice. He cleaned up each night before he left and touched base with me while I was at work if he had any questions or needed clarification. I left him with a key to the house and found him very trustworthy. I've discussed future roof repairs and the building of a porch bench that he will start next week. Carl has over 27 years in the trade and has held a general contractors license but it is not current. He is incorporated here in Florida and reports that he is insured.

First of all, I like to say I really like Nick.  I wasn't exactly sure who Thomas was in this process till we were 4 months into the work, but he is a very nice guy too (btw he is a designer) .  Just cause they are nice does not mean I was happy. Let's start from the beginning.  My project grew from refacing several bathrooms into refacing my kitchen (as well as rebuilding some cabinets), building a custom fireplace wall unit, rebuilding my laundry room and creating some custom closets.  In the proposal process, Nick and Thomas were very accommodating.  I was quite impressed with how they would literally sketch a design within minutes and price it out.  Also let me say, their prices are very competitive, if not the best.  I initially met Cabinet Masters at the end of January 2016.  I would meet them again in February and March as my job grew in size.  My initial contract called for install at the middle to end of March.  As my project grew. I specifically said if any of these additional projects will push my timeline, please let me know.  They said we'll get it all done in one shot and we would do that to you (drag it out).  As the end of March came, the excuses started as to why they might be to me the first week of April 2016.  As the 2nd week of April approached, all the sudden I found myself corresponding with Thomas and not Nick.  I assumed at this point Thomas was a partner since he took over my $30,000 job.  Thomas told me  they were doing me a favor by starting maybe at the tail end of the 2nd week of April, but they would show up maybe 1 or 2 times that week.  All they did was remove my cabinets doors and brought in some doors (some the wrong size).  I felt like I was pulling teeth to get a straight answer from the company, but was trying to stay calm and polite since I had a huge deposit down with this company.  Other than the lack of professionalism and punctuality when it came to starting the job (and consistency), there was zero oversight into the quality.  I repeatedly brought up issues which I would told would be corrected at the next visit, but for whatever reason, those issues remained.  Thomas kept asking for payment as portions of the job would finish, but I had to eventually get stern with the company and say no more payments till you get your act together.  I finally was able to have Nick take control.  In the beginning I had a friendly rapport with Nick, but by the end, I could see Nick did not want to be in my company.  Let me say, if price and quality is what you want, Cabinet Masters are your guys.  If you need professionalism and consistency, well, that is why they are so competitively priced. I remember asking one of their workers when he saw my kitchen how long it would take, he said 4 days max.  Well it took poor management 5 weeks and caused me a lot of stress. There is nothing more than I would have loved to give Nick and his crew all "A" ratings, but it is what it is.  If you chose Cabinet Masters, be prepared for them to show up 2  days per week.  3 days if you give them a hard time.  They will tell you they are busy working on your project in their workshop, but when you say you knew about this job all the way back at the end of january and why is it 5 months later and I am pulling teeth to get you guys to finish, you can see the lies from a mile away.  The workers would be honest with me and say "I hope we come back here tomorrow," but then I would see them for days on end.  I would love to say I'd use Cabinet Masters again, but unfortunately that is not the case.  Honesty is just as important as price if you are trying to get (and keep) my business.  I could be totally off basis, but 1.5 - 2  months late is 1.5 - 2 months late.

John and his entire crew are top notch! We hired them to do a complete remodel of our downstairs, including a high end custom kitchen, all new wood look porcelain tile floors, floating entertainment center, built in custom bar, stone fireplace wall, full bathroom, and office/laundry room. We kept adding more work along the way and he was able to deliver all of the items in a timely fashion. The job site was always extremely clean - we lived in the home during the remodel and were pleasantly surprised with how clean the guys kept our home, considering the inevitable construction dust! We had a snafu along the way, which John rolled with and remedied to our satisfaction immediately. That’s the mark of a great contractor! We have already secured him for fhe rest of our house in a few months. 💯 satisfied!
