K.E.S. never did a single moment of work at our house and yet he feels that it's OK to hold on to $2,800+ dollars for 4-6 weeks and then return only 50% of this deposit ($1,400). This is a very clear case of construction fraud and I would warn any others that might be considering K.E.S to think this over carefully before you make your decision. . Be sure to verify the status of the appropriate licenses for the work that is being done, the insurance that he has and that the appropriate permits are being pulled by KES to complete the job. The work was never even started and there was no mention of any portion of this deposit being non-refundable and so the refusal to return this deposit completely unacceptable. My advice would be to stay away from this provider and to find someone who is appropriately licensed, honest and willing to start a job without a large up front deposit.
Description of Work: Kenny was supposed to do a master bedroom and bath remodel. After 7 days of no shows and excuses we decided to end the contract based on the unreliability of the company and the inability of them to pull the proper permits for the job. They had been provided a 20% deposit of $2,800 and after several days of phone calls and text messages had gone unanswered they offered a 50% refund stating they would keep half the deposit $1,400+ based on "scheduling" and they would be sending the refund check in 4-6 weeks.

I've had them for 2 years. It went very well as usual. They did an excellent job. I highly recommend them.
Description of Work: A lot of little things around the house. They did some pressure washing, painting, replaced a screen panel, and the pool surround, installed 2 sets of hinges on doors, and repaired dents in the wall. Kenny replaced the outdoor coach lights and scraped the silicon from the wall from an improper installation done previously by another contractor. He also replaced a deadbolt lock and three door knobs.

I was going to use them again and again, but in getting to know them a bit better there is a bit of attitude in their voice. I asked them to come Tuesday for an urgent issue, and they did not show up. Then they called me and said they tried to call me. They indicated that because I didn't answer the phone they decided not to come. No apology. Then on Saturday they said they would be here at 5 or 6. Instead, without any warning via text message or phone call, they show up at 4pm. I called them when I got home at 420pm and they seemed irritated that I wasn't there even though both my wife and I were witnesses that they said 5 or 6 not 4pm. I basically fired them after that. I think these guys are good at what they do and perhaps success has gone to their head a bit. I won't be using them again in the future.
Description of Work: Fixed some minor issues around the house, installed closet, plugged exterior stucco cracks. They did a good job but they definitely have an attitude.

Kenny and gave estimate and emailed the bid for multiple small projects. He e-mailed the prices the next day and 6 days later l called him back with an ok to do the jobs. Kenny advised he had 3 kitchen jobs that he do and it would be 2 to 3 weeks. But he did state he'd come on Wed. or Sat afternoon . I never heard from him again. At least be professional enough to call or say no to the job.

Kenny and his partner from KES performed some miscellaneous repairs on my house. The first time he came, he forgot the stain for the interior doors and his partner left the interior doors with very sharp edges after sanding them. It was a warning sign, but since he seemed to have some good repair ideas and offered a 1 year warranty on his work, I saw no cause for alarm. He came back to repair those items, and to finish installing a small area of tile along the edge of the living room which had a drop down to an adjacent room. However, the tile grout cracked and he came back again to repair it. Right afterwards, the bead of grout on the edge began crumbling and I sent pictures to him right away. However, he emailed me that this was not a warranty item and advised me to coat the surface with a bonding agent. I contacted a professional tile installer from Angie's List who said that the bead of grout should not disintegrate as it was doing. I left a message and emailed Kenny with additional pictures and asked for a partial refund so I could hire a professional tile company to fix the bead correctly (by this time I realized that Kenny was over his head on this tile repair and that I needed a professional to fix it.) However, I did not receive any response from him about the refund or any offer to try to fix the problem. I also contacted Kenny with pictures about the caulking job he had done on the small holes in the white plastic strips on my pool deck, because they were WORSE than before! He had not taped the surrounding areas when he caulked and as a result there is a sticky film residue on the white strips and even on the adjacent cement pool deck, which is a different color! KES did not honor their warranty and refused to accept my generous offer to give him a good rating on Angie?s List for the work he had done right if he would be just give me a partial refund so I could have a professional complete the tile and pool strips by a professional who specializes in those kinds of repairs.
Description of Work: Miscellaneous household repairs, including repairing the edge of tile and caulking white plastic strips on pool deck as part of a Angie's List Big Deal and additional charges.

This was Monday morning, he could have called Friday or Saturday or Sunday to tell us he wasn't coming. Instead we got up early and prepped the work area for him which included getting help to move a large refrigerator. Now we need to put the kitchen back in order. I don't trust this contractor to perform this work.
Description of Work: The contractor was supposed to be here at 9am, at 8am he called to say he was behind in his schedule and could not make it.

My helper and worked 14 hrs per day sat and sun I didn't want to call you at 10:30 at night if you would have answered your phone or called me back on Monday I still could have got there but it would have been in the afternoon as far as moving things we would have done all of that for you sorry for the inconvenience sometimes jobs run over beyond anyone's control but please know we did work all weekend and very long days to try and be there
We needed help getting our house ready to sell and didn't have the time nor the knowledge to do all the repairs needed done to get our house ready for the market. Kenny was Johnny on the spot. He was timely in giving us an estimate and coming in to do the work. His prices were extremely fair and very reasonable. no hidden anything! He and his assistant worked very efficiently. We gave him a hundred odd jobs to do and he was quite capable of going them all. a jack of all trades. We were in a real pinch and he came through for us. We had no choice but to leave a house key for him to access the house alone. He was completely trustworthy. I would use Kenny again in a minute. We have nothing but good things to say about him. He gave us very ethical advice about what we should do as far as repairs went for resale.
Description of Work: painting, power washing, replaced damaged hard wood flooring, replaced broken ceramic, marble tiles and patio tiles, replaced window screens, sheet rock work, replaced a door, some electric, etc.

Excellent response time & quality of work. Although the contractor was already busy, he managed to squeeze in my project so it would be completed before Father's Day.
Description of Work: Removed 3 old ceiling fans & replaced with new fans.
They did a great job and were able to schedule us according to our schedule. It was done in a timely manner. We had had a flood and they did some repairing of baseboards, amongst other things.
Description of Work: I bought a big deal for $199 for 6 Man Hours of General Remodeling, Contracting or Handyman Services
We were very happy with the work we had done. Kenny was very professional and answered all calls I made to him. We will definitely be using him again. And I recommend him to everyone I know.
Description of Work: We put in wood floors in my livingroom and tile floors in my diningroom. Also had the ceiling in my laundry room fixed and put in new kitchen counter tops.

I could not have ask for better service We called around to different people and K.E.S was the first one to return our phone call .The estimation that he gave us was fair and reasonable for a Shower remodel. The work was preformed in A day which was a Bonus in My Book as I only have the one Shower working. Kenny and his Assistant were very detailed oriented when It came to placing the tile and making sure that there was no mess left behind. I will use this company again as I am remodeling my house with putting down new flooring in the whole house and having the whole master bedroom re-done along with bed.
Description of Work: Mr smith was called because we were trying to fix the problem by ourselves and caused more problem as the back side of the wall was rotten in the shower.

The Kenny and his helper Justin arrived on time and worked all day completing the plaster work and allowed it to dry over night. They returned on time the next day and completed painting the entire 2 ceilings. The match was very good to the original knockdown. The cleaned the work areas and replaced the furniture. We they left the ceilings looked like new. Great and speedy work!
Description of Work: Removed ceiling knockdown on seems ruined by water damage in master bedroom and large covered porch. repaired and replaced knockdown. Repainted ceilings.
We used Kenny for a previous job and hired him again when it was time to renovate a vacant rental house. He and his assistant did a fine job. The house was vacant; therefore we left a key in a lock-box for their convenience. We met up with Kenny every weekend to inspect the work completed during the week. He was always upfront with his estimates and often time made suggestions which we found very helpful. He's reliable, honest, dependable and we would use him again.
Description of Work: Removed old attic fan and repaired ceiling (sheetrock). Installed garbage disposal, hung microwave above range, installed new toilet, raised shower head, installed baseboards in bonus room, cut/installed doors & trim for laundry/storage room and installed vinyl flooring in laundry/storage room. Interior paint - walls/ceiling/trim (approx 1200 sqft).

We bought the tile on our own and they just installed it. It was fantastic. They did a great job. They were very punctual. They gave us an estimate, where the other guy that came out never got around giving us an estimate. Ken was very professional and he had wonderful help. He is very down to earth and willing to work with us. They cleaned up their messes.
