  4 Seasons Remodeling & Design Inc.

  Few months ago, we hired Jacob at 4 Season Remodeling & design to do a major renovation at our house that included the kitchen, bathrooms, installation of new wood floor for the entire house on top of energy efficient double glass windows and all the doors (inside and out). We were very happy with the whole process of the work from the design stage all the way to the completion of the work. All the materials and finish products were selected by the help of Jacob and he made sure always that everything will be delivered on time so the project will not get any delays. Jacob is by far the most perfectionist when it comes to his work and his results are always at the highest quality. We are so happy that we hired him for our house and our next plan is to hire him again for our next remodeling of our backyard and front yard!

  Attic Guys

  We caught a couple of rats in the attic and found lots of rat poop up there. Most of it was ancient, but we knew rats were finding their ways up there--we caught a couple last year, too. We called Attic Guys based on the Angies List reviews. They were easy to work with. No problem contacting them or arranging an inspection. The inspector came on time and was up in the attic for a bit of time inspecting it. Was able to give an estimate for our 1500 square foot house that we felt was fair (after reading many reviews from this and other services, trying to get an idea of what we were in for). We scheduled to do the work a couple weeks later. I was a little apprehensive thinking "what if we spend all this money and there here, like, two hours" :-( That was not the case. A team of five guys showed up at 8 am as scheduled and started working. It took about an hour just to set up. They created a tunnel with thin plastic sheeting so dust and dirt wouldn't go all over the place, and covered the floor. Then they set up two giant hoses in our two attic trap doors. It took about another half hour to get started because there was a ton of debris left up there from some past job, and they had to carry that down by hand. Then their guys started vacuuming the old insulation and rat poop out (the insulation was pretty thin). I could see the rat poop going through the hose and there was a LOT of it. They were at it for hours, non stop. At about 1:30-2:00, they were done vacuuming but a couple of guys were up there for about another hour sealing off any places where rats could get in with a hard wire mesh, and disinfecting the attic. They took a lot of pictures so they could show me how clean everything was, and I mean it was sparkling! Then another team came in. After a brief setup and getting into their protective white suits and masks, another two giant hoses went into our two trap doors and they started blowing in the insulation. That process took several hours, as well. They didn't finish until about 6:30, and they took almost a full hour to pack up, take down the plastic sheeting and floor coverings, and clean up. All the machines were set up in the front yard, and they even vacuumed the little bits of junk and insulation off the grass where it had fallen. They left everything very clean and didn't take off until about 7:30 pm--almost a 12 hour job! That's a lot of work for a 1500 square foot house! The two crew leaders were efficient and very friendly. The other guys--I hardly saw them. They went up in the attic and didn't come down until hours later when the job was done. They worked very hard for so long... They helped me peak into the attic when all was done. It looked like heaven with big fluffy clouds of insulation. everything was clean inside and outside the attic. We were very happy with the services. We have not heard any rats, but I did see rat poop on our patio--the rats were getting in through a torn screen just above the patio and I think they pooped on the patio because they weren't able to get in. It's good to know we can breath easier now, too. I do recommend these Attic Guys. Of course, it's not something you can actually compare (we're not going to have somebody else do this--probably ever--so can't compare) but it was exactly what I was expecting. I was surprised it took all day and they didn't leave until after dark. I posted some pictures--don't have any with the new insulation--sorry...

  The House Next Door

  The House Next Door provided the worst experience I have had with a contractor in 18 years of home ownership. I cannot urge fellow Angie's List members strongly enough to avoid this company.
  If you must have any business with them, I suggest the following:
  ? Verify any claim they use to justify a cost overrun: In my case, Vic, their representative, requested a price increase (for tempered glass to meet code requirements) with the claim that my house is in a high fire hazard zone (VHFHSZ). Quick calls (later verified by email) to the county Building and Safety Office, and to my fire insurance agent, disproved that claim; And an estimate from another window vendor showed his figure for the glass upgrade to be inflated by 600%. Though I treated the claim (and inflated upgrade!) as an innocent mistake, the company offered no word of apology or explanation, which with other indications lead me to believe that such tactics are business as usual.
  ? Do not let them convince you to sign anything in a hurry ? either initially or for changes during the project. I regretted signing every contract and change order - especially the one that initiated this fiasco. You should take a day let the high pressure sales tactics fade before you sign.
  After catching the false overrun claim, work on my project slowed to a crawl. I sent numerous text messages, photos, and 'reminders' to Vic of the scope of the project to bring some progress. Eventually my lack of trust and confidence in Vic and this company lead me to dismiss them from the project - a process that was neither pleasant, fast, nor ultimately a bargain (except for my peace of mind - and any subsequent troubles avoided). There was plenty of messy - and incomplete - work left behind, but I found their delays and evasions to be intolerable.
  The quality of work was often laughably disappointing; Have you ever seen cracks in plaster 'repaired' with flexible bathroom caulk? ...Neither had I. Cracks began to appear almost immediately on their new drywall seams, and there is new paint over old bubbled paint (not properly prepped or sanded) that that could crack with a light push. The workers seemed to care about quality, and did some good work, so I suspect Vic's direction is responsible for the rushed and skipped areas.
  If you are already involved in a job with The House Next Door, I urge you to be wary of their claims, and don't allow yourself to be pressured or gouged. Good luck!
