Robert and his crew were fantastic! They were professional and efficient and I’m very satisfied with the work completed. I got many estimates from different companies and Robert of Overall Builders was by far the most competitive! What I love most about Robert is that he’s a genuinely nice guy and will do his best to get you what you want in a price that you can afford! That being said, I will only be hiring Overall Builders for future projects!

I am very pleased with their work. The area that needed repainting you wouldn't even know the work had been done. They blended the edges very well. They completed all the work I had in a satisfactory manner, were courteous, and arrived on time.
Description of Work: I had a warped board trim outside which needed to be replaced and painted, patch holes and repaint the area where I had removed downspouts, caulk areas on the flashing of my chimney, and a few other miscellaneous patch items outside.

Robert Brownwell was great! He found time in a crowded schedule to take care of tile issues, a falling down molding and caulking. Great job and so efficient and personable! Thank you!!

Robert with Overall Builders was outstanding from beginning to end. He was very prompt with his initial response, gave me a very fair quote over the phone and quickly provided advice and date/times to complete the work. The work was done exactly as planned and he was careful in making sure everything was cleaned up before leaving. It is hard to find skilled tradesmen like him that I am having him quote me on additional tasks. I don’t think you can go wrong by looking into Robert and Overall Builders for either small or large remodeling projects around your home.

First of all Overall builders was one of the best companys I have ever hired to do work at my home. Robert is one of the best there is out there. Not only did he do everything we wished for in our kitchen, he also completed the job earlier then expected. He will be back as soon as my wife gets her vision for the bathroom. I would give an A+ if I could thanks again Robert your company is truly one of the best!!!!

Overall builders was a great help and the level or work done was top notch. Robert came and gave me an estimate and was prompt with the service. All work was done in a professional manner, and no “extra charges” were added after the fact. I even had Robert come back and do additional work as the first job I had him do went very well. Very professional and I already have plans to have him do another job for me this summer. It can be hard to find a good honest company, but this is one of them!
