Description of Work: Isaac visited us and gave us estimates on three different 'jobs.' He had a subcontractor do two of the jobs...replacing ceiling tiles in basement and putting up backsplash in kitchen. | |Isaac returned to finish backsplash and will return in August to repair and paint kitchen ceiling. | |He is very professional and personable...the only reason I gave a "B" is because I wasn't as happy with subcontractor work, but Isaac finished it and it looks great.

Description of Work: Put particle board under cabinet d/t water damage. I wanted as simple& cheap as possible. None--no trying to have more work to make it more like new. Had water pipe in garage at night, called them after 8pm & they were willing to come to my home even off hours. Nice to have "jack of all trades" willing to help in emergency regardless of the time. Greatly appreciated.

Response from Swieter Home Lawn and Snow LLC
Member, we are very happy to assist all our customers in an emergency situation - there are not many situations where feelings of frustration abound more than when something you depend on (water, electricity, etc.) becomes unavailable, and usually without warning!

Swieter's has done this work over the course of a couple years which makes it hard to put into a story.... I continue to use them which is as good a recommendation as one can give. Isaac is good about getting out quickly to give estimates, and get the work scheduled. Some of our projects have been one or two days and some of them have taken weeks, but we always plan the projects together so we both know what to expect. Isaac is very good about advising what items at the store are worth spending more for and what less expensive ones will do just fine so that is very helpful with planning larger projects. Over the course of the years and many projects, the few times I haven't been completely pleased with results, it has always been remedied satisfactorily.
Description of Work: I have used Swieter's for a couple years. I thought I had already written a review and now there are so many different jobs they have completed for me, I am afraid I may accidently leave some out... They have painted the exterior of our home, replacing rotten window trim and siding as needed. They have mowed the lawn and trimmed trees in our 3 acre yard, hauled brush and trash to the dump, remodeled two bathrooms which involved removing wallpaper, replacing fixtures,cabinets, toilets and a new window, carpeted and painted interior rooms, changed out light fixtures, remade and replaced shed doors, removed shrubbery and trees with a skid-loader and brought in river rock to make a garden area, rebuilt a brick retaining wall, fixed the chimney(I think it is called point tucking or something like that) and replaced a single front door with double doors and rebuilt the walls on each side. Isaac is accomplished in many areas, but won't jump into a project without the confidence and ability to complete it. His whole crew is made up of wonderful young men who graciously encourage our sons to 'help' with whatever jobs they work on or throw a football with them during their lunchtime. I have no qualms about having them around our daughters and sons. They are great guys. One time Isaac got talking with my husband about our broken lawn mower and loaded it up on his trailer and took it home and fixed it. They have gone way out of their way on a couple different projects: one was hanging a large chandelier in a two story foyer which involved scaffolding and alot of strength and ingenuity! Another one was getting a 30 ft flagpole installed in cement with ground lights on it before our Marine arrived home; Isaac and his crew worked literally around the clock to make it happen because I hadn't given them enough advance notice.

I've used Swieter for a couple of years for the snow removal at a small office building I rent out. They responded quickly for me when another service was a 'no-show'. They get back to you fairly quick if you have to leave a message and have been prompt in their service and completed the job as they had promised. I also used them to haul off a lot of brush and branches from some extensive tree trimming I did. Again, showed up on time, completed the job quickly and at a fair price. Will continue to use them for snow removal and will have them come back in the spring for estimates on some landscape work at home.
Description of Work: Sidewalk snow removal at business location. Previously, brush clean-up at home location.

Excelent! Swieter is easy to work with, and understands all levels of financial needs.
Description of Work: In trying to save money, my husband and I switched insurance companies. The new insurance company decided we had some dry rot on the outside window framing, that needed fixed ASAP, or we'd lose our home owners insurance. I was in a panic, and called quite a few different places. Swieter was promt in calling back, they were able to come and give us an estimate, and do the work on short notice. The quality of work was more than we expected. We were so pleased with their work we're using them again to complete some other home imporvement projects. I highly recommend them!

roofing

I called Swieter about doing some yardwork for us, we ended up getting a quote to replace our roof. He did a good job of calculating what materials were needed, but the hand-written quote on a blank piece of paper left me un-impressed. I really had my doubts as to the quality of work that might be done or the time it would take (he told me it would take a week to a week and a half) on what was a 2 day job. They might have done an OK job, but I just did not get that warm-fuzzy feeling that it would be done right. When spending thousands on a roof, you do not want it messed up by someone who does everything from yard work to carpentry to roofs...you want it done by someone who knows what they are doing. Had I chosen to have them do the job I definately would have insisted on a copy of their insurance certificate and verified it before allowing anything to be done...just in case.

The work was done on time and on budget, but the craftsmanship was lacking. The ends weren't connected properly and the caulk was uneven and splattered.

Everything has gone great! I will continue to hire them in the future!
Description of Work: I originally hired them to clean out a bed of nasty old roses. It was an icky job. I contacted several other companies. None was willing to even bid on it. Not only did Swieter's agree to do the job, the bid was lower than I expected. I then went ahead and hired them to take care of my mowing for me this summer. They have been dependable and professional all summer. Because of the good care I've received, I also hired them to clean my gutters. They came out the next day. Not only did they clean the gutters, but they also cleaned the ground underneath and took all the debris with them. (I've used other companies that just left all the debris piled in front of the house.) When we had a terrible thunderstorm, I had a fairly large chunk of a box elder tree that fell down. The price was reasonable. The work was efficient and professional. One of the things that I appreciate is that they are a "real" business, not just someone trying to make extra money on the side.
