Very conscientious workers, on time and very clean. As with all home improvements, things take a little longer that estimated, but well worth it for an excellent job done overall.

Lester showed up on time and was very friendly. He came on a Wednesday morning and told me that he would have the estimate to me by Saturday but I never heard back from him again.
Description of Work: I had Lester over for an estimate on a kitchen remodel. He was going to rip out all of our existing cabinets and countertops and replace with new ones.

Lester was very easy to work with and very fair with both the deviations we had (extra closet/pantry work, fixing structural supports in the basement). He was also very good with working through concerns and the punch list. His team did a great job, so that inspections also were completed without any issues. The only criticism I have is that his quoted schedule was off by a few weeks from the real schedule. Overall, though, we have been very happy with the final product and would work with him again in a heartbeat.
Description of Work: Lester and his team re-did our entire kitchen. In the process, they gutted the whole kitchen and removed a load wall in our house to open up the kitchen to the dining room. They did a great job--the kitchen ended up beautiful, and has re-defined how we use our house.

I found the workmen very pleasant to deal with and good about cleaning up afterward. The job was done in a timely manner and to a very good standard. Like most remodeling, the cost was more than we initially expected but that is mostly because we changed some things as the job was being done.
Description of Work: Complete renovation of basement, 3rd floor including the refurbishment of 2 bathrooms.

Job 1: Excellent quality work, nice workers, and reasonable price. Would recommend for future consideration. Job 2: After a very good experience using Polish Builder for a kitchen rehab, we decided to call them back for our two full bathrooms. Lester spent a lot of time talking to us about what we wanted to have done and what our expectations were. He followed up with a detailed estimate and we decided to go ahead with the project. Work began about a week after we accepted the estimate. The two workers were prompt and hard working. The time to complete was almost exactly what the estimate was and there were no unexpected surprises. Along the way, several suggestions were made that made the bathrooms even better than originally planned. Overall, we were very happy with the work and the workers. The price was good and the quality was excellent.
Description of Work: Job 1: Installed new cabinets, heated slate floor, drywall, windows, painted walls and ceiling, new doors, and lighting. ($28000) Job 2: Completely rehabbed two full bathrooms. This included demolition of the existing bathrooms, new sub floors, tubs, showers, vanities, toilets, sinks, faucets, plumbing, tiling, electrical, drywall, and painting. ($22000)

Two men did most of the work, Adam and Adam. They were very dependable, showing up at 7:00 daily as planned and the few times one or the other couldn't make it, we were notified why. They're skill was excellent, even identifying my own design flaws and making suggestions about corrections. Their troubleshooting greatly contributed to the efficiency of the project. Cleanliness during and at the end of each day was never a problem. One of the most important things was their honesty. I was never apprehensive about leaving home while they were working.
Description of Work: Complete kitchen and laundry room remodel. Demolition down to the studs. Lester's crew did the entire project: electrical rewiring, repositioning plumbing, rebuilding a rotting floor and then tiling, installing cabinets, appliances, light fixtures, rebuilding the closet area, installing the old cabinets in the garage. Previously they tore out and rebuilt our front stairway.

Outstanding job. Lester started work within two weeks of submitting/winning the bid (as promised) and assisted with permitting. Lester's carpenters maximized the use of limited space, which required considerable framing and soffiting. Installed perimeter benching and storage for kids room--great idea! Job completed on time (accounting for inspection delays) and at budget.
Description of Work: Partial finish of basement (TV room/den and playroom). Job included significant framing, re-routing of plumbing, installation of outlets and recessed lights, drywall, and painting. Lester also rebuilt stairs and access to basement to make kid-friendly.
