My husband and I are doing a rehab project and had been puzzled about what to do with the kitchen floor for weeks. The problem was that it was far from level. Each square foot of the floor was a different level than the square foot next to it, and the kitchen was open plan and had to meet the hardwood floors on either side of it. Some contractors we had called to give us an estimate simply said to just put cement board over it and tile, and not to worry about the levels since it was just a rehab project and people might not notice. That was simply ridiculous, because some areas of the floor were nearly an inch lower than areas three feet away. Some spots were already the same height as the adjoining floors of the other rooms, so placing cement board on top of the existing floor would just raise it even more and do nothing for evening out the levels. What we immediately liked about Nicholas when he came out to the house was that he was willing to give us several options and give us a straight answer to which solutions were the best and how we could make them fit our budget. The rehab project was coming to the end and our budget was nearly spent. He told us that it would probably cost just as much to rip out the existing floor boards and plywood (there was a mix of both since the house had an extension built on to it that started a quarter of the way into the existing kitchen area). He was the first contractor to even mention the idea of taking out the floor first. When he gave us a quote for ripping out the floor, laying cement board and tiling it was still a bit steep for our budget (we had always planned on doing this job ourselves before we realized the floor was such a mess). So together with Nicholas we worked out a solution to fit our budget - he would prepare the floor for us to tile by ripping out the existing floor and laying down the cement board. Nicholas was prompt when he came out to give us an estimate, and surprised us by doing the work earlier than expected. He came out to give his estimate on a Monday and said that he would be able to start ours on the weekend or the following Monday because he was in the middle of doing another job, which was perfectly acceptable. But on Tuesday he called us and surprised us by saying he was going to leave his crew to continue the other job and that he would come out himself to start ours tomorrow. He did exactly that, and he would have completed the job in one day if there was light, but we had just painted the kitchen and had not installed the lighting yet. He came back the following morning and was finished by the afternoon. When we came to evaluate his work we were pleasantly surprised with the quality, as well as how well Nicholas cleaned up - there was no evidence of any mess, and the old floor boards had been taken out into the driveway and neatly piled up by the garage near our other construction garbage. We were a bit nervous about any damage to the walls because they had just been painted, but there wasn't a single nick. We were very pleased with the work Nicholas did, his promptness, the care he took, his neatness, his willingness to give helpful advice, and the fact that he is pleasant to work with. Since we plan on doing more rehab projects, getting along with the contractor is very important and we will definitely be using Nico's again.

They interacted with me well. The price was fair. They were punctual. I would use them again in the future.

gave me estimate that was in my price range. can in a did the work, and finished at the scheduled date he promised

He was always prompt and always left the work area clean. He completed the work on the time schedule that he gave us in the beginning. He has just put in a backsplash in the kitchen and again went to the store with me to pick out tiles and accent tiles. He will be doing smaller tasks while he is here like, installing ceiling fans, fixing closet doors, putting up shelves in the garage and adding 2 new outlets. I highly recommend his work.
