Ewald Construction Inc.

I utilized Ewald Construction at my home after he was referred to me by my insurance company. After completing a renovation of my existing spare bedroom, I was very pleased with the owner Kerry who provided my wife and I with wonderful customer service, good pricing and a professional and respectful crew. Kerry has great communications skills and his crew is always on time. I decided to bring Kerry and his crew to my place of business where he has now become one of our General Contractors. He has completed several jobs from painting, drywall, electrical, plumbing, tile, carpeting, demolition and mold remediation. Yes, Kerry is certified in mold remediation!! I am pleased with the knowledge Kerry brings to the table and his two crew leaders are wonderful. I will continue to use Ewald construction at my home and workplace. I would recommend Ewald Construction for any project big or small.

We had Ewald Construction come out to give us a bid, and the project manager and owner came out. They were extremely professional and informative. We went with them as we were very impressed with the proposal and the professionalism. The price came in very comparable to another competitor. We have had nothing but compliments about the basement and over a year later, everything is still great. We did have an issue with an ejector pump installed that failed (actually failed twice). The first time was still during construction. I called the project manager early on a Saturday and a plumber was there within an hour or so. The second time was about six months later, and the project manager had the plumber out a couple hours later. The plumber completely replaced the pump (at no cost). This demonstrates how Ewald stands behind their work and I couldn't have asked for better responsiveness. I would certainly have Ewald come out to bid on any other remodeling project in the future and have recommended them to friends.

1. Project for bathroom remodel and repair of family room ceiling: estimated cost on contract: $12,000. Estimated time: 2 months. End cost after overage: $20,000 and we did not purchase over priced items. They under estimated us! -They recommend that we did NOT need building permit. Did not complete project for 7 months due to multiple complications: see below 2. Bathroom project: completely gutted bathroom. -They did not level the sub-flooring and there now exists a 2-3 inch slant in the floor. -due to slant in floor, shower doors not level and unable to close & stain is chipped on tracking. -due to slant in floor, multiple cracking in tile work 3. Water pipes behind shower wall were replaced due to leakage. -After initial completion of project (4-1/2 months) there was continued leakage when we started to use shower that caused another leak in the BR and family room below. -They had to cut a hole in the newly painted wall in the Bathroom to find the leak. -They had to cut a hole in the newly painted and repaired family room ceiling. -plumber came and repaired the leak; Within 24 hours the leak recurred. -A second plumber opinion(from our contacts) revealed that their plumber failed to fix the original leak correctly. 4. Within 3 months of completion of project, a large crack occurred in the corner of the shower and the back wall is mobile. We called them constantly, documented our problems. They never took responsibility for the problems! Overall, we would like you to know that this has been the worst construction company we have ever dealt with.
