It was very hot and humid that day and Scott had to go in and out. We have a small bathroom and it was warmer back there. we don't have central air. Scott worked very hard to get the floor and done so we wouldn't be without a toilet that night. He had to take the toilet out and all the old floor which was wet and dirty. I'm now walking on a hard floor and the allure flooring on top looks great . He put neat white molding all around and came up with a solution for the outside of tub which was rusting through at the bottom. Scott is professional polite and a nice person. What he did was worth every penny I paid. Thank you Scott. Dee

Old bathroom floor was a mess soft and sinking. Scott is a very hard worker and gets the job done not wasting any time. Very polite and professional. Explains what needs done and why. It was a very hot humid day, however Scott worked without stopping so the bathroom could be used that night, sweating all day from the heat.. He put in a new pressed hardwood floor and allure flooring on top, nice neat white trim all around. I had a problem at the base of tub and didn't know what could be done. Scott fixed the problem. We had a new toilet installed by his plumber. Bathroom looks great. I'm so happy problem is fixed. Work was finished that same day as Scott didn't want us without use of the bathroom. Scott earned every penny. Thank you very much Scott. Dee

Prior to starting work, Scott came to the house two days to review the work to be done, and provided me a quote. He provided details about what materials were needed and what work was going to be done. Scott was very thorough in his explanation of what I should expect and what the cost would be. On the day of the job, Scott came out at the time he said he would and went right to work. Scott kept me informed throughout each phase of the installation...this gave me the peace of mind I needed considering he was putting a hole in my kitchen wall going to the outside. This is the type of job you can only do right once. Scott expertly cut a hole in the concrete block wall from the outside and it aligned perfectly with where the inside duct work was to go. The job took about 5 hours. Scott and his helper were courteous, professional, and friendly throughout the entire installation. They cleaned up after the job was completed and left no sign that they were ever there, other than a kitchen vent that now exhaust to the outside. I highly recommend Schrader Home Improvement Specialist, Inc. and will definitely call Scott and his company for any future handyman/home improvement needs.
Description of Work: Converted a recirculating kitchen vent system to one the vented to the outside. Schrader Home Improvement Specialist, Inc. cut a hole in the the concrete block wall and installed the necessary venting duct work so that the kitchen vent would exhaust outside instead of recirculating through the over the range microwave.

Description of Work: Response to request was prompt, and we scheduled a date to have projects done. Scott arrived as promised, quickly assessed the needs, shopped for necessary parts, and completed the work on time. We were totally pleased with his thoroughness and care. A pleasure to have many of the projects/repairs completed that we are now unable to do ourselves. He knows his "stuff" and can recommend him highly.

the framing. He gave me the opportunity to give him any other ideas. He is professional and a skilled person with carpentry and tile work. He did an excellent job and we would highly recommend him to anyone no matter the size of the job. Al Knezevich
Description of Work: We had our fireplace resurfaced with marble tile. We were in need of new framing, but the tile lines were not straight. We called Scott who came out the same day. After reviewing our special needs (custom designed and built framework), Scott came back on Monday morning right on time. He outlined what he planned to do which included cutting both sides of the tile to take

We met Scott Schrader on Nov. 23, 2013 when our bathroom commode broke and turned water and sewage between our parque and tile floors and sub-floors. This has turned out to be a $37,000 problem. Scott took up the flooring and subfloor in the bathroom, kitchen, hallway, bedroom and part of dining room and replaced them. He took out the bathroom tub/shower, sink and comode and replaced them. He also completely remodeled the kitchen, including installation of cabinets, built by cabinet-maker, except for plumbing. He did a fine job and is a very hard-working, honest man. We were lucky to have him working on our house. He even went under the house to put in insulation. He also located an honest plumber to do the plumbing work for us. We are retired teachers with 40 years each of experience. We have never had anything like this happen before, and Scott made it possible to see the light at the end of the tunnel. We would recommend him to anyone who needs any kind of work done on their home. We now have a home that is much nicer, due to his excellent work.
Description of Work: Scott removed parque and tile flooring in bedroom, bathroom, hallway, kitchen and part of dining room. He also removed damaged sub-flooring in same rooms. He put in new sub-floor in same rooms. He then installed new parque flooring in hallway and dining room, and tile in bathroom and kitchen. He also removed all fixtures in bathroom and kitchen and completely remodeled both rooms. He also installed insulation under the house.

We used Scott Schrader to times (1st in Oct. 2011, 2nd in April 2012) to paint and do misc. carpentry work on two high-end retail stores. His painting and carpentry work are excellent and the finished products were certainly to the standards required of a high-end, boutique retail environment.
Description of Work: Painting: three very different colors where the corners met were perfect! Rather tall ceilings painted in a dark color, the result was flawless. misc. carpentry work: hanging shelves, creating a new look out of old cabinets and display cabinets: the results were excellent
