  At the start it went well. His team framed quickly. All of his workers were polite and trustworthy. The project started in August and we were able to move back in (albeit with covered floors, no granite or plumbing yet in kitchen and painting unfinished.) As soon as we moved in things slow down quickly. We were told it was because of the holiday and that made sense. By December 1 We had the kitchen in working order and while they were still things to be finished including painting and final details we were happy with the work. The problems really started after the holiday when we couldn���t get them back to finish the projects that remained. While punctuality had been a problem in the past, it didn���t bother us too badly as eventually they showed up and got the work done. However after the holiday we could not get them back. By this time the epoxy they had put in the garage had completely peeled and they had never finished putting the flooring on top of this tiered system we Had created in the garage. To date the top tier isn���t still plywood versus the flooring it was supposed to be and the garage floor has never been fixed. These items seemed small along with a few other things that we had wanted to get finished on the inside so we were patient for a long time. Every few months I would call or email Martin and he would promise that he would get out here asking me to understand how busy he was on some other job but he would never come. Once or twice he came by himself to see what needed to happen but never brought anybody to fix anything. To date all of these items remain undone. Things got more serious however when the tile they had laid in the new master bath started getting really loose. This tile was difficult for them from the gate and they had had to redo it once before we moved in the prior Thanksgiving. They of course blame the type of tile and never took ownership for the fact that they could never get it to line up properly. Martin Came once To fix one of the loose or tiles promising to return for the others but we have not seen him since. I have contacted him several times not so much for the work in the garage that was never finished or the trouble with the tiles in the master bath but rather for the front walkway and the stone patio in the back as the mortar they placed cracks all the time loosening the slates. At this moment in time I have pots on my front step so that people will not step where the slate has no mortar at all . I have had one stone guy out here before to fix it and another one coming this summer. Both have said the best they can do is patch it but what really needs to happen according to both of them is to rip it up and do it again as it was done so poorly. Despite all these issues eventually we just gave up trying to get Martin to stand behind his work and we chalked it up to lesson learned and resolved to be smarter in any future remodel. That all changed this summer. Starting tomorrow I need to replace the frames of every single new window and transom Martin and his team put in because they used interior wood and all of them have rotted. I will also have to do this on the three sliding glass doors as those frames as well have rotted. In addition the soffits were not vented properly and there is much rotting and a hole of about a foot on one side. In addition to fixing the frames around the windows we will also have to fix the vents in the soffits as well as the hole and tonight we will find out how much damage it would have caused to the new roof. Based on the lifting of some of the shingles there is at least some damage. I���m sure hoping I don���t need to replace the roof. What has me so upset is not just the fact that the work was not done properly but rather but he refuses to communicate and fix what should���ve been properly been done originally. This was an extensive remodel. It was not cheap. We were never late with payments. And even at the end when things were slowing down when asked for final payment because he needed the money to pay his guys we gave it to him. In hindsight this was absolutely a foolish decision on our part but we really liked Martin as a person and we trusted him as a contractor. It���s a unfortunate that the latter also turned out to be a mistake. I would not recommend using Martin for his team for any project. While I think they are capable of good work if any mistakes are made they will never stand behind it and you will be responsible financially for fixing any errors they may have made.

  Custom Power Electric

  Prompt and job well done. Fair price. Very happy and highly recommend. We had numerous defective old dimmers we wanted replaced, our doorbell needed to be fixed, and canned lighting was installed in our bedroom. Honest and reliable.

  Custom Power Electric

  Let me start out by saying that I would definitely use Custom Power Electric again, and would highly recommend to friends and family. My project was to have four flush ceiling lights installed in a small office and a single flush ceiling light above a bathroom tub. Neither of these installations were easy. The fixtures would need to be install near the edge of the roof leaving little room to work. I contacted an electrician that I had used in a prior project who promised to come out and give me an estimate, but never called back. I then contacted another electric company who told me their dollar per hour rate, indicated that the job would probably take 8 hours and I would need to buy the light fixtures and switches. This approach bothered me in that if I pick up something that���s incorrect then I would need to rush out while the electrician was on site, wasting time. When I contacted Custom Power Electric, I discussed the project with Rich Mohlman the owner, exchanged a few text messages and photos and was provided with a cost almost immediately that included all of the fixtures and materials. Rich���s price was close to the other company where I needed to furnish the fixtures. When I accepted his price I got an installation date within hours that was only a week away. When Rich arrived, he covered the work areas in drop cloths to protect our furnishings and alleviate leaving a construction mess. Rich finished the job in 4.5 hours including clean-up, and the wife and I couldn���t be happier with the job.

  Haris Inc

  Ibro and his team were great to work with. Anytime I called or left a message, they got back to me within an hour or earlier. They were highly efficient with the work they did and the costs associated with their work was much better than several other quotes we received. We will be continuing to use Ibro and his crew for other jobs around our house moving forward! I would reccomend him if you are looking to save a little money from some of the other contractors out there.

  Nick's Home Remodeling

  We had the absolute pleasure of working with Nick Martinez on a master bathroom with a steam shower remodel project. We would most definitely use him again and would highly recommend him to anyone considering a project. Background We had been planning this project for a few years. We spoke to no less than 5 contractors over that period of time. The first three contractors were turn-key, full-service design firms. It was uncanny how close those three companies came on price quotes (more on that later) and that the price was in the range of a new sports car. While these companies offer nice showrooms and hand-holding through the process, we felt that we had a pretty clear idea on what we wanted. We decided to look more at an ���a la carte��� approach ��� where we pick the design and materials and sperate contractor to handle the installation. We had two contractors ��� Nick and another - offer a price that was exactly the same ��� to the penny. (Turns out they all subscribe to a database for estimates that uses project scope, square footage, and address to estimate a price. That���s why all of the contractors were close in pricing.) We decided to go with Nick for these reasons: - Portfolio of similar projects. His showcase of projects is excellent and similar to what we wanted. - Great references. His references raved about him and one even invited us to their house to see the work. - Superior knowledge. Nick obviously had a lot of experience and good ideas about our project. (I think he���s older than he looks.) He was also the only contractor that recognized that our steam shower would be 220 volts and required special wiring. - Included Painting. Every other contractor required that we handle the painting separately. - Wholesale pricing on materials. Nick was agnostic about where we bought materials. But he has relationships with local suppliers. Most contractors have you pick your materials and then pay the contractor. Nick had us work directly with the suppliers and pay the supplier ��� at his discounted wholesale rates. Some materials were more than 40% cheaper than retail. That was a huge unexpected saving on the overall project. We also used HomeDepot for some of the other basic materials. When the contract started, working with Nick and his team was a pleasure. An unexpected surprise was how he worked around our schedules. Nick arrived after we were done preparing for work. Then he would drape all of our furniture and carpeting to keep things clean. At the end of the day, Nick was usually done before we returned from work. All of his tools were moved out of the way and draped as well. Remodeling can be a huge inconvenience. Nick realized that we needed to live here and he worked hard to minimize the impact on our lives during construction. Another major factor in our satisfaction with Nick was that he had a lot of experience and ideas. He had suggestions about details that would really add to the projects appearance and usability. Minor details like slight slopes on sills so water would not pocket there, size and location of niches, penciling around tile edges, placement of lighting and shower fixtures, etc... And, because he was agnostic about the materials, we didn���t feel that he was trying to push us one way or another to more make money. We had some additional side projects that we were able to get done at the same time. We felt that his pricing was fair and reasonable for those scope changes. Nick also accepted mobile payment (Chase Zelle) which was convenient. There was one setback that had to do with one of the suppliers. They didn���t provide us with all of the right materials. The impact was that it set Nick back three days because materials needed to be special ordered before the project could proceed. Nick did not charge us for that delay. I think the way that he handled it was very professional. He even got the supplier to give us the extra materials ($600) for free because it was their mistake. We honestly felt that Nick had our best interest in mind. He���s called several times to check-in with us to see how things are going. We sincerely look forward to our next project with him.

  Sebring Design Build

  Loved our experience with Sebring! Linda was fabulous to work with in designing our spaces. Phil was an excellent project manager and listened to all my questions and concerns. Never had to worry about crew showing up and work being done. Everything was done in a punctual and timely manner thanks to Scott, Harris, Jeff and team. So glad I chose Sebring - thank you Bryan!

  Biango Construction

  We met with over 10 different contractors when we began planning for a sunroom addition. The job entailed blowing out the family room wall and building the room within the space of what was at the time extra garage space. Every contractor came in at least 10-15k OVER our budget, and some even said it wasn't possible, don't even consider it. Nick from Biango Construction wrote up a very fair proposal and stuck with the budget. My husband, to be honest, was not as eager as I was to pursue the project, so he asked Nick a lot of hard questions about the specifics of the addition -- how much higher the ceilings could be made, how much duct work, if any, would need to be moved around, and how we would seamlessly build a transition from our family room into the addition. Nick patiently addressed every single one of his concerns, and we were able to confidently proceed with the project. We pulled permits and Nick did not voice any objection to this (unlike MANY MANY MANY other contractors we've come across). I would say he was personally on site for 80-90% of the job, and the other times one or both of his two main assistants were there (Danny and Joel). I don't know how to put this without sounding impolite, but he and his crew speak perfect English. It was easy to communicate what we wanted and didn't want, which led to a positive outcome for all parties. The crew worked through the winter to complete the job. They set up barriers to minimize the amount of dust and debris in our garage and house. They were responsive to our on-the-fly changes/requests, such as figuring out a way to move the electrical and cable wires to a different wall -- the day AFTER drywall was put up! The project had unepexcted obstacles, but Nick has a real knack for problem solving that helped us solve each problem. Nick is a carpenter by trade, so he was able to cut some costs for us by custom building things, such as a custom built in bookshelf, which friends and family compliment us for everytime they see it. He also came up with an inexpensive way to install a beautiful paneled ceiling with beadboard, that really gives the room a unique look. His painter Ozzy and his crew are awesome, respectful, and clean. We didn't have any problems with any of the subs used for our project (HVAC, electrical, and drywall). We look forward to working with Nick and Biango Construction for our future projects!

  Standby Electrical Systems Inc

  Jeff has been out on a couple of occasions to help us with the electrical portion of our basement remodel. He's been available to help with little notice and always a pleasure to work with. His pricing was was very reasonable and his work has been spot on.

  I have had Jeff come to our home twice. The first time he replaced three ceiling lights. The second he replaced four hardwired smoke detectors. In both cases he was on time, efficient and cleaned up after himself. Everything works and looks good. My best compliment is that I will call him the next time I need help.

  Custom Power Electric

  Once again I can't be happier with Rich's service and professionalism. I used Rich 3 years ago to help with some outside work and he did a tremendous job back then. I needed to have 3 fans put into 3 different rooms. This is something I'm not good at - so I called Rich. He was earlier than expected and everything went off without a hitch. He also spent time with me talking over some options for outdoor lighting that I need for him to put in. Like I said before if I could give 6 stars I would - if you need an electrician that is professional and does a great job - Rich is your man.
