I will absolutely use this company in the future. I will have to call early because I intend to refer them to all my friends, family, and Church members. This is why I LOVE Angie's List.
Description of Work: I was compelled to write a review because of the time, concern, and advise provided when I called for a quote. Although no new bookings were available, the gentleman took time to hear what I needed. He called attention to what I should look for to ensure I would obtain a quality company although they were not available.

Brent saved us at least $1,500 the last time he was here. We asked him for an estimate for replacing our exposed back deck. He suggested that he pressure wash it and paint it. That saved us at least $1,000, and it looked great. He saved us more money by using the vapor barrier we had already inexpertly installed, and properly re-installed it. He also installed a dehumidifier in the crawlspace. We were going to have Brent paint the inside of our screened porch, but he suggested that he first make repairs to the ceiling, then paint. It all looks GREAT! Brent is very professional and honest, communicates extremely well, is punctual, answers any question you have and doesn't talk down to you. He really cares about the quality of his work. It's even a joy to see the way he and Jody consult with each other and brainstorm on how to best complete a project He is the best contractor we've EVER had the pleasure to work with. And he actually LISTENS to you and hears what you're saying. Priceless!
Description of Work: Pressure-washed and painted the deck, repaired ceiling of screened-in porch, painted the inside of the screened-in porch. Installed vapor barrier in crawl space, installed dehumidifier in there, too. He also repaired our stone mailbox.

Brent was able to come out sooner than originally planned. His work is excellent and would have been worth the wait. Last year, I had another company look at the basement doors and I was told they were hung crooked and couldn't be fixed. Brent adjusted them in no time and they still look good and close as they should. He matched the grout in my 18 year old bathroom so well you can't tell it was ever repaired.
Description of Work: Painted master bedroom, sitting room and two tray ceilings. Made adjustment to basement doors to remove gap when they were closed. Repaired grout that had separated from wall in two bathrooms.

He came to the house and looked over the areas first. He went over his notes with us so we would all be on the same page about what was to be done. He left to go to Home Depot to purchase the supplies. He came back did the work, cleaned up, and left. He did a good job and I plan to use him in the future.
Description of Work: He installed three elongated raised toilets and installed grab bars in all bathrooms and shower areas.

He was very prompt, did a great job. He went above and beyond by finding the leak in the roof. He did even charge us any extra for fixing the leak. He is a great guy- he can do any and everything. He cleaned up, and was done in a day. It was amazing. I will use him for whatever I need in the future.
Description of Work: We called him because we had a leak in our ceiling. We had it worked on before, but it didn't solve the problem. So we hired Jim. He installed a sub floor, and went out on the roof and pulled the insulation from the shower. He found the leak was actually the roof leaking all along, he repaired it, and sealed up everything around the chimney.

Brent McCurdy came to the house and gave me an estimate and ideas for both projects. I had to wait in line for about a month to get started on the project but, he advised me at the time of the estimate. I did not mind that at all because the reviews were so good and I was sure he would do a great job. When they started the project they showed up on time, picked up all the materials needed, worked hard the entire time they were here and cleaned up the mess every day. They did a wonderful job and I will most certainly be using their services again. I highly recommend them. Great guys too.
Description of Work: They completely remodeled my bathroom and expanded two closets out 3 feet and made the two closets one large walk-in closet. Both rooms look fantastic.
Brent McCurdy and his assistant Jody remodelled three bathrooms for us. They completely guttted two of the bathrooms and then installed new tile on the floor, built and tiled the new shower, installed cabinets, lights, fans, and the new toilet, doing all of the plumbing, electrical, and painting work themselves. In the basement full bath, we left the tile alone, but they installed new cabinets, lights, toilet, and plumbing and electrical fixtures. They did an outstanding job - top-quality. They are perfectionists and very easy to work with. When a problem arises, Brent always has a couple solutions and presents the pros and cons of each. This is the second major project that they have done for us and we are looking forward to hiring them for a third one in 2015. I strongly recommend them.

He was a very pleasant man, punctual, the price was about what I expected. The approximate cost is for labor only. We are going to remodel our main bathroom and make one huge walk-in closet out of two smaller side by side closets in the master bedroom. I can hardly wait until he gets started.
Description of Work: He hasn't done the work yet. He is booked up for the next 3 months or so but, I am on his list.

Response from Total Home Repair
Yes this is completely true. The homeowner asked if I could pour a parking pad for a car beside his existing driveway. I told him that this job was a little beyond my expertise. I do smaller concrete and that a pad that size would need wire bracing and expansion joints to support a car and that he would be better off calling a concrete company. I gave him the best advice I could, and that is exactly what I would do if I were in his position. I would think that he would appreciate the honesty and not just tell or do something that I'm not that experienced in. Either way I hope he has a good result. The F really confuses me.

Fast forward to February, 2014. Had not heard a word from him and got in touch to find out when our job could get started. He stated the job he was currently working on had run way over the scheduled time as "the owners kept adding on things to be done". Forward again to April, 2014. Contacted Brent again and he was still working on two jobs that were on his schedule before ours. He stated he would give us a 2 week notice when he was ready to start. We received a call on a Friday in June that he could start the following Monday (two days notice, not two weeks) and then said he would really prefer to start the NEXT DAY. Ummmm, no. You can't give a homeowner 0-2 days notice to start a major project. Plus we were going out of town within a week and did not want to get started on something to then have to stop for up to a week. He stated he had a small job he could do before ours and we agreed to start after the July 4th holiday. I stated we had decided on some modifications to what we had originally discussed and that we probably would be dialing down the scope of the work. We agreed to discuss the changes when he was ready to start and I stated my husband and I would decide on exactly what we wanted done. Again he stated he would give us notice of when he was ready to go. July 4th comes and goes and..........crickets. Not a word from Brent. Emailed him asking when our job was to start. He responded by email that he understood me to mean we weren't ready to go at this time and had moved on to another job. At this point, we said enough is enough and informed him we would move on to someone else to have the work done. It is ridiculous that a job he said he could do in three months turned into a 10 month wait and the only communication that was passed was always initiated by us. While Brent may do outstanding work as pointed out in reviews here on Angie's List, his time management and communication skills need some definite work. He also stated in our last email exchange that he felt it only right to return our consultation fee of which we have to date, not received.
Description of Work: We had Brent come out to give an estimate on some interior work we needed to have done. He was very pleasant and seemed to give good recommendations on ways to modify our plans. He stated he was booked approximately three months out, but, we agreed to the wait and confirmed with him that we wished for him to put our job on his schedule.

I spoke with Brent and explained the repair that I needed. He informed me that my problem wasn't something that could wait and he was booked up for the next 4 months. He said if I could not find anyone else to call him back, but it would be a long while before he could help me. I appreciated his honesty however, most home repairs cannot wait 4 months.
Description of Work: The provider advised me to look somewhere else as he is booked for up 4 months from now. So, if you don't need something done for 4 months then he might be able to help you.

I apologize if I came off as rude or short. My intention is to give you the best advice I can and to try and save you money. That being said...I put customers on a list and work my way down the list. Everyone's job is important to them and I don't prioritize jobs based on size or how much I will make. My recommendation to not wait is so that further damage doesn't make the job cost more for waiting.

While Brent was too busy to meet my immediate needs, he was professional, concise, and quite helpful. Left me with, "and if there's anything questions I can answer regarding your project, even if I'm not going to do the job, do not hesitate to contact me." Though he's not available for my current project he is certainly on my list of 'good' contractors.

Failed to keep appointment or schedule another one.
Description of Work: I first contacted Brent about the repairs needed in April 2013. He came by the house and gave me a quote. There was a twenty dollar charge for his time and gas that was to be applied to the work if I used his services. He had several other engagements including a funeral. He assured me that he would get back with me as soon as possible after everything settled. I contacted him again in March 2014 and he assured me he would again follow up.

I am very sorry to hear anyone is displeased with the service I provide. I have spoken with [member name removed] on a couple of occasions. He did contact me again in march, and as I told him before, I am booked out quite far but some smaller jobs I was doing on Saturdays. He said that was fine and was really easy going. He is a doctor and on call a couple Saturdays a month so scheduling between the two of us was rather complicated. If I misunderstood I sincerely apologize. I was under the impression that he would contact me with his availability as his job allows. I never heard from him so I assumed he was either too busy or made other arrangements.

Brent did a fantastic job. Contacted in October we had to wait our turn but it was well worth the wait. He communicates well and gets the job done quickly and meets all expectations. His pricing is fair and honest and he does the work looking for ways to save you money and still meet all your expectations. Open, fair, honest, one of the best contractors I have ever worked with. I HIGHLY recommend THR.

The rehab had been originally started by another contractor. Much of the work was simply fixing the shoddy work of the first contractor. Brent was helpful and concientious. We had many choices to make in regards to the level of repairs to make. His input helped me make the right choices for this property. Brent and his crew do good quality work. He has always been responsive and reliable. He is my man on the ground in Atlanta and I expect to use him in the future.

The provider arrived as scheduled, called when he was on his way. I found him to be personable, reliable, and professional. He got right to work, did all that needed to be done, and was most reasonable in his charges. If there was an A+ category, I'd give him an A+ in everything. No complaints whatsoever about anything. It was a pleasant experience in every way.
