Cill Dara Construction

We purchased our home in October of 2011. We began with structural upgrades and continued with various interior remodels. I hired a builder who I thought could handle the job but as it turns out he could not. I turned to Pio for help. The job seemed to go on forever. The contractor that I originally hired dragged things out for over one year, but (as we've learned) a number of things were not done well or were done to a lower standard than what we should have expected. My wife and I were at the end of our rope. I've known Pio for several years and he's helped me with various remodel projects, but I'd never really relied on him for anything big. Our problem was that we needed to fire the one contractor and bring someone on to problem solve and move the job forward. Not every contractor will take that on because so much work has already been done. I called Pio to ask for help and I honestly had no idea how he'd respond or what to expect. In short, the results have been amazing. Pio has stepped in to problem solve and help us to deal with problems that cropped up on the job. With his help, we're currently negotiating with our roofer to replace the non-functioning gutters on our beautiful shake roof. Pio's tiler came in to fix a problem in the bathroom that would have bugged us for years. (The walls aren't quite straight but one area was particularly onerous.) And Pio's working with us to sort out issues with a painter who really doesn't know how to paint, but who was happy to call his sub-standard job done and ready to walk away. (We're talking bad cut lines, work that wasn't prepped properly, brush strokes, and so on.) I could go on about the number of issues with the prior work but no matter. Pio knows what he's doing and he has the people to fix things. There's still more to be done on the job but I can say that Pio's sub contractors are amazing and he doesn't waste any time. Let him know that there's an issue and he'll come up with a solution. Alert him to a problem and he's right on it. He knows how to get things done, what to expect, and how to problem solve when issues come up (as they always do). Things are moving; almost overwhelmingly so. After months of work, the chimney is finally finished. The attic is signed off. Kitchen and bathrooms are basically done. Floors are being refinished as we speak. Windows are being repaired. Painting will be wrapped up. And the gutters will be repaired, one way or another. Suddenly, it looks like we might actually be able to move in! If you're looking for a contractor who will listen to you, problem solve, and deliver a quality job, on time, call Pio.
