  Gibson General Contracting Inc

  Would definitely hire again. James and his crew were professional yet personable. His estimate was very detailed and the cost was the same as the other estimates I got. He supervised his crew closely. He worked hard to get my backsplash tiles level even though the wall was not level. When there was an issue with the plumbing under the kitchen sink, (a job that should have taken a half hour) he stayed for hours to make it right and to get the job done. (He said he didn't want me to have to use the laundry sink as a kitchen sink any longer.) He rearranged his schedule to get my backsplash torn out on short notice so my countertops could be installed. He rearranged his schedule again in order to do the work the week I was on vacation. Not many contractors would be that accommodating! He and his crew cleaned up so well, they even cleaned things that were dirty when they arrived! My only complaint is the sometimes slow response to emails, but James does give out his cell phone number and is happy to accept calls, I just didn't want to disturb him on a job. It also took awhile to get on the schedule. He IS very busy, but in my mind that's a GOOD thing; if you're that in demand you must be good. I love how everything turned out and I was very happy with the whole experience. James is very knowledgeable and can do just about anything around the house. Highly recommend.

  Hazelwood Floors

  Contractor was a complete liar. They marked up the material over 30% and did a lousy job staining the floor. They had over spray on carpet and stain more than one foot up the walls. When we approached them about the job and fixing the floor, they stated we were responsible for touch-ups. Worst experience with a contractor in over thirty years. We own three houses and have never experienced this bad of customer service or workmanship. Would never recommend.

  Mr. Handyman of Cleveland's Northwest Suburbs

  Michael Fay and his team just completed a third job for me within the last 9 months. ��These guys show up on time, work quickly and efficiently, and do quality work. ��I have found them to be quite knowledgeable about a diversity of construction related matters. ��They have handled well complex problems that came up during the first two jobs completed for me.
  
  The first job entailed replacing wood that had rotted over several years due to faulty construction -- water had been leaking through siding -- and required the replacement of structural materials in the garage. ��The situation was much worse than what we suspected before the guys began the job. ��They did a fine job for what I considered to be a fair price.
  
  They next remodeled the kitchen. ��We chose to keep the original cabinents. ��When the granite installers showed up they discovered that some of the cabinents were not in shape to support the countertops and the cabinents had not been installed properly some 20 years previous. ��Michael offered to rebuild the cabinents with quality plywood -- removing the cheap pressboard material used when these things were manufactured. ��This saved us a lot of money and several weeks of pain that would have come with having a kitchen ripped up while waiting for new cabinents to arrive. ��They did great work also with laying tile and grouting for the back of the countertops.
  
  Michael and team have shown themselves to be honest and quite skilled in doing many different kinds of work. ��They have skills far beyond what I envision when i hear the word "handyman." ��I would recommend anyone in the Cleveland area to at least get a quote from Michael Fay when considering a home repair or upgrade.

  Odell Construction Inc

  Odell Construction is fantastic to work with from start to finish. Last year they installed a new front door for us and we were so pleased with the work done that we immediately called Justin this year when we wanted to finish our basement. Justin is always quick to respond and provided a very detailed estimate for the job, along with a computer generated 3D picture of the proposed layout. He was very willing and able to give us options to reduce costs and keep the job within our desired budget. He had very helpful ideas on how to work around existing duct work, beams, electrical panels, water shutoffs, etc so we could optimize our space. He created a built in area under the wall mount TV for my children's video games and DVD player. The work was completed on time in 3 weeks. They always arrived when they said they would, left the area clean and organized and were easy to communicate with about changes or concerns. Justin always went above and beyond...fixing my husband's botched paint work, staying to help on a Saturday when we had plumbing issues totally unrelated to the basement job, sketching out furniture placement on the floor for me so I could decide on wall placement and much more. We love everything about our new basement and half bathroom. Because of their quality work, professionalism and attention to detail, I highly recommend Odell Construction and will not hesitate to use them in the future.

  Odell Construction Inc

  I give Odell Construction the absolute highest rating in every area.  Their work is absolutely top notch.  Every time I step into my bathroom, I cannot believe how beautiful it looks!  Justin helped us through every step of the process.  Considering this was our first extensive remodel, we had so many questions.  Justin took the time with us to answer every one until we were satisfied.  I felt that I could call him at anytime with questions, and he took the time to make sure I understood everything.  He was flexible and willing to work with us within our budget.  He was completely professional, always showed up on time and coordinated all of our projects perfectly.  He stuck to the schedule that he originally discussed with us.  Not only was his work exemplary, but he is very personable and makes you feel at ease.  Taking on an extensive project can cause anxiety, but Justin was there to answer any questions and deal with any concerns.  I feel like they treated my home as if it was their own.  When they left each day, everything was cleaned up and organized.  They were careful to contain dust and protect all other areas of my home with tarps, etc.  Justin is a true craftsman as every aspect of the job looked incredible: the tile work, the cabinet and counter top installation, the dry wall, the wood work, and the paint.  My father in law was in construction for many years and came over to check out their work when they were in the initial stages of framing in the walls.  He told me that he was very impressed with their work as well.  We would not hesitate to give Justin and Odell Construction our highest recommendation.  We will definitely be using them in the future

  LW3 CARPENTRY LLC

  Lou, and the other workers (Eric and Rick) were courteous and professional.  They showed up on time and let me know if there was going to be a delay or difficulty with a specific part of the project.  He completed the project in 11 days, well ahead of his estimate of two weeks. He even helped me with a few small extra projects. Each day, we discussed what he would try and accomplish that day so that I could move the small pieces of furniture ahead of time.  He kept tight timelines and finished about a room a day.  If I needed a specific room put back the same day, he tried to make sure that the large pieces of furniture were placed back in the room by the end of the day.  The floor looks gorgeous and is so easy to clean. I am enjoying the beauty of the new floors and remain very happy with his work.  I wish I had done this earlier!

  ON THE JOB

  Every experience we've had with Bob has been fantastic.  He does what he says he will and completes each job in a conscientious manner.  In this case he removed an unused dressing table from a hallway alcove, and framed in and finished a linen closet for us.  Work was done on time and within his estimate.  I have such a high appreciation for Bob's work that I have referred him to any number of friends and clients of mine and I will continue to do so.  Thanks Bob!

  COACH CONSTRUCTION

  There was a pre-existing back porch room with floor to ceiling windows when I bought my house. However, it had not been originally well constructed, the windows were removable (and allowed rain to come in through screens) and portions of the wooden walls were decaying and rotting. I didn't know just how decayed the walls were and whether the roof and ceiling would be intact. As my father had been a builder, I was very familiar with good and bad construction -- and observing what passed for acceptable construction in this locale -- I was nervous about finding someone capable of providing top-quality construction work. Especially as I was certain the walls and maybe the ceiling were going to be a mess once we actually found out what was underneath. A friend who lives about an hour away had found Coach Construction on Angie's List and referred Rich to me. I didn't know if he would be willing to perform a job this far away, but I called him. He came up, looked everything over, wrote up an estimate, and we discussed what it included. We also agreed that the overall price might be higher if the walls turned out to be as disintegrated as I expected they might be. Rich was easy to deal with and reliable. He shows up early in the morning and gets straight to work. When I got home from work each day, I couldn't believe how much progress was accomplished. Every day, Rich brought his shop vacuum and completely cleaned up spotlessly. I have animals, so it was important to me that nails and other items weren't left around. Every day, he took away the rubble, so I had nothing obstructing my yard or house. There were a few delays, but they were all caused by ordered materials not arriving in a timely manner -- all outside of Rich's control. He shows up when he says he will, he's easy to work with, and the work is absolutely top-notch; and I'm hard to please. I simply won't accept mediocre work that is commonplace today. I would highly recommend Coach Construction to anyone interested in having great work performed at a reasonable price.

  Jaime's Quality Home Improvement

  Jaime came over to look over job and give estimate. He was easy to contact through the internet and phone. He arrived when he said he would and did the job quickly and it looked terrific. Very nice person to deal with.

  BRYAN J KELLY FURNITURE

  The bookcases are beautiful. Brian's craftsmanship is meticulous and flawless. He balanced his creative input with our needs and the existing conditions. Brian also used the best materials for the job. He was always on time and considerate of our home, always cleaning up after the work. He even made friends with my nervous dog! These bookcases are the highest quality furniture in our home now.
