Eric made dozens of repairs and upgrades to my house, including replacing kitchen, bedroom and living room flooring, tiling two kitchen countertops, building an outdoor deck, repairing garage lighting, replacing gutters and reconfiguring the drainage system, modifying a kitchen cabinet to accommodate a large refrigerator, replacing ceiling fans and an outdoor sink, installing water filters, replacing an odd-sized bathroom vanity, and a lot more. When you hire Eric, you get an extremely versatile and super-competent handyman, a licensed contractor and a disciplined, creative and hard-working problem solver. Eric always shows up on time, communicates well, consistently comes up with creative solutions and gets results that will meet or exceed your expectations. I am not one given to exaggeration or false praise, and I rarely write rave reviews. You will not do better than Eric.

Angie's List, PLEASE CORRECT THIS UNFAIR GRADING SYSTEM! Total bull from Angie's list. Whoever heard of giving someone an "F" for being too busy and than Angie's unfairly averaging it in with all my "A" grades!

Things went very well. I was very impressed with their professionalism and thoroughness and how great they were to come and give estimated. I was very impressed with everything they did and coming to me as a perspective client. The person that came out was knowledgeable, professional and was on time. He gave us recommendations.

Eric was very responsive during the initial quoting process and remained very communicative during the entire renovation project. He stuck very close to the budget and timeline outlined in the contract, which I appreciated. My kitchen, though small, was very complex because of odd angles, etc. I live in a circle building, so no right angles. Though the cabinets were bought off the floor from Lowes, Eric needed to do some customization to make it all work. He also took out a floor-to-ceiling pantry closet in the kitchen in order to give me more counter top space. I was very pleased with the final result. The tile counter tops in the kitchen are flawless, he really did good work there. He also did nice tiling work in my bathrooms, especially the floors which turned out great. Eric did not do much finishing work (like painting, smoothing over rough or damaged walls, etc.) as that was not in the contract. I got a separate painter to do that work. All in all, I was very pleased with his workmanship and feel I lucked out in selecting such a responsible and skilled contractor. I would recommend him highly.
Description of Work: Eric put in new kitchen cabinets and tile counter tops and renovated my 1.5 baths with new tile floors, new vanities, and new tile shower. He also put in new fixtures (including bathroom track lighting) and some appliances (like over range microwave).

Performance was pretty much what you would expect from a one-man-shop sort of operation. For tasks that Eric is good at (fixture R&R, tiling, demolition, etc.), they go pretty well. Tasks that he is less familiar with (plumbing) take longer. Our project took two weeks (which is reasonable for a small company in this context) and the price was competitive with other estimates that we received. Quality of work was reasonable (good but not perfect, which is the level of work that matched our budget), and the work was completed within the promised timeframe. One additional repair was needed later under warranty; that was handled quickly and without any fuss or hassle. I would not recommend hiring Eric for some types of plumbing-related tasks such as replumbing shower valves (when the connections need to be changed to a different style); you should have a licensed plumber take care of that part of the job (that is applicable to most general contractors, actually). I wouldn't have concerns about having him do fixture R&R, drain work, or similar sorts of plumbing-related tasks.
Description of Work: Complete bathroom remodel, including: Replacement of all fixtures (including tub), cabinets, and associated hardware (towel racks, shower curtain rod, etc.) Tile work (tub surround and flooring) Repair of some related water damage to walls around the tub Paint Other minor related items

Eric worked with us to give us the best possible price. He communicated very well, by phone and e-mail. He kept very close to the timeline and costs of the original estimate. We were satisfied with his work and have hired him for an additional project and would definitely hire him for our future projects.
Description of Work: Eric completely renovated our bathroom to enlarge and make it accessible.

Description of Work: We were buying a house. The first thing we needed to do was gut the master bathroom. Eric drove around an hour to come out and give a quote. He was professional and courteous. He also has a website that shows some of his work. We didn't end up with the house so his services weren't needed.

Project went extremly well.
Description of Work: I live on an oceanfront property in Waimanalo. The wind, salt, and damp air can cause big problems especially on the ocean-side of the house. The copper gutters and fascia it was attached to came crashing down one day due to rotted wood. The eves were covered with vinyl making early detection difficult. Eric was able to come up with good suggestions to help resolve the problem and was able to implement some ideas l had. Everything from Stainless steel attachments, epoxy for the replaced wood, and snow roof latex coating under the vinyl should make the repair last. Eric was able to figure this out without any significant supervision. After a day I was sure the job would be done right. Eric was even able to repair the badly damaged copper gutters which was a very pleasant surprise. That alone saved me several thousand dollars. Eric also added a new support beam, where the roof was slightly sagging, in a very cosmetic way. I was delinted with the job he did. Without me asking, Eric sent me a refund check for the 5% when he discovered I got his name from Angie's list. I would definitely hire Eric again for any future repair or maintenance work.

There were a few snags such as replacement of the bath tub in the unit. Initially we decided not to replace the tub because we were worried that we wouldn't be able to find a new one that would fit the small enclosure. Once demolition started the removal of hardware on the tub revealed a hole and the apparent cause of previous leaks into the unit below ours. The tub had to be replaced. Eric shopped around and was able to find a tub that fit. After he removed the old tub he found that the previous plumbing fixtures wouldn't fit and that there was actually a large pipe from the kitchen area that ran beneath the old tub. This pipe couldn't be removed so Eric had to make some modifications to the bottom of the new tub to make it fit over the pipe and to the plumbing. This cost a little more than the original contract of course but was well worth the price because we now have a brand new tub to go along with everything else and we don't have to worry about those previous leak problems.
Description of Work: We own a studio condo at the Island Colony in Waikiki but live in Colorado. We had a lot of difficulty locating a company that we felt comfortable doing business with in Honolulu. We got several estimates and sized up each of the companies giving us an estimate. Eric was not the very cheapest but certainly not anywhere near the highest. We had some estimates that were sky high and the ones that were lower were given by people who weren't insured and seemed a little shaky. There was some difficulty in getting this done because of where we live which made selecting materials difficult. We shopped the local Home Depot and Lowes here in the Denver area but sometimes items in stock here weren't available in Honolulu. Eric was patient and made numerous trips where he took photos of what was available there in the islands. The job was a bathroom remodel and who knows if this bathroom had ever been remodeled from its original construction in the 1970s. Eric gutted the whole thing. Everything was torn out. He then installed a new tub, shower fixtures, a shower door, toilet, vanity & sink, mirror, medicine cabinet, towel racks, and light fixture as well as texturing the walls, painting, and tiling the floor and tub enclosure. As with any job there were a couple of unexpected problems but Eric kept in contact, fully explained the problem, and sent photos to us. At the end of the job the new bathroom looked great and the workmanship was very good. Eric showed up for work everyday (6 days a week) on time and worked until the job was completed. Eric kept receipts for each item or material he purchased for the job and presented those receipts at the end of the job when final payment was given. Eric provided a written contract and did not require all the money up front. It was a pleasure working with Eric and it's good to know we found somebody at a long distance we can trust. We certainly intend to contract with Eric for any future renovations on the condo and there are some coming. I would certainly recommend hiring Eric.
