Sunstone Construction

We were all happy with the service. He is the only person we have ever used on Angie's list. Our overall expedience with him was the best. We would use them again in the future.

After reviewing Angie's List, I hired Tony for a complete kitchen remodel. The contract stated $2k down, the rest due upon completion, but a week into the project, he asked for another $2k. This pattern continued, always with excuses about how something cost more than he estimated; another thing was more work than he expected; he needed to pay his guys so they could keep working; and threats that he would have to take on other jobs to keep his cash flow going so he could finish my kitchen. I also caught him installing new wiring that wasn't to code (he tried to use cheaper 14-gauge wire for appliances/countertops). He offered to quit when I confronted him on this, but we settled by me having to tell him exactly which wiring to use where. (I hired a professional to do this expecting that I wouldn't have to look up the code myself.) He also carelessly damaged the thermostat and left me with the expense of hiring an HVAC expert and replacing parts and wiring Tony broke. Another big problem occured when he was unable/unwilling to level new cabinets to 1/8", as required by the granite installer. He blamed it on a beam in the basement causing the kitchen floor to drop 1" in 5 weeks. Although I found this difficult to believe, I immediately had an inspector out to investigate the beam. This expert found no evidence that the floors had moved, nor any unusual sloping in the floors, beams, walls, or ceilings. He said the beam had probably been like that for years, was not a structual deficiency, and was an easy fix. Because Tony said he wouldn't finish the cabinetry nor guarantee his work because of the beam, I immediately had the problem fixed that day so he would be more comfortable and finish his work. Instead, he quit. Leaving my kitchen without any plumbing, patches of unfinished drywall, missing electrical outlets and fixture boxes, a missing window, no trimwork, etc. And he pressured me into paying him percentages of the work as it was "completed", so he made a profit and didn't even finish. When another company came out to finish the cabinetry & install the granite countertops, they found that he had used nails instead of screws in some of the cabinets, that some cabinets didn't have any shims supporting them, and that a floor-to-ceiling pantry didn't have ANY SUPPORT under it at all--if I had loaded this with shelving and food, they said it would have fallen off the wall! I shudder to think of what could have happened due to Tony's shoddy workmanship. I'm also wondering what else will be uncovered as other people come in to finish the work.

They were very professional and nice. I kind of felt double-teamed - two guys showed up in two separate trucks. They wanted to put 13 piers around my house to fix the problem. The price for a pier is not a bad thing but it seemed an awfully extreme fix for what I had asked them to come out for. I?ve gotten their calls weekly possibly from the guy wanting to know if we had made any decisions yet on what we were going to do. I think they are a harder sell maybe than the other ones I talked to. We have had a couple of people tell us that there is no way we need that extensive work done, so I would probably not consider using them.

On September 21st he no showed our appointment. He called on the 22nd to say that he needed to take his wife to hospital. I am very sympathetic about those things and he said he could come by in an hour. He did come by and he looked at the problem and said that I would hear back from him. I haven't heard a word. That is two incidents where he never showed up and I haven't received anything from him. This is very unprofessional. I left him a message this morning telling him that he needed to get a hold of me or the job was finished and I haven't heard back from him.

Sunstone came out as scheduled and worked quickly and efficiently. Based on location, stains required different treatments including repaint, ceiling repair and repaint, and taping and refinishing. All jobs were done very well.

Tony was professional, friendly and prompt. We had water leaking (unknown source) into unfinished basement. He did thorough inspection, answered all questions(I had a ton) and provided reasonable solutions. Work was done exactly as stated and on time . We are very pleased and plan on using Tony in the future. Cannot recommend highly enough

We thought it was a major problem but Tony fixed the issue for a reasonable cost. Other bids were out of sight. We did not need the work other contractors suggested.

Tony came through once again. He is the one to call.

Our best remodel yet. It was tired when we bought the house but now it's a showplace. Tony proved his expertise once again.

We've received several years of great service and quality of work from Tony.

We have used Tony on several projects over the years. He keeps getting better!

Tony handled our commercial business records as well as residential. Handled permits and occupancy with the city as well. A painless experience.

Tony handled all aspects of the job without subcontractors. He's the guy we call. He's knowledgeable in all areas of our project. His workers were very responsible and polite.

Once again, Tony did the job without any problems and on budget as scheduled.

Good price, did the job in one day. Our home was for sale and it spruced it up.

One call to Tony and he handled it all with short notice so our sale could close on time.

Tony is the one we call for all of our home needs. He always has knowledge and explains things very well.

Tony worked with us on paint colors and was very helpful. Showed up everyday until the job was done.

This is the fourth home we have had remodeled with Tony. His quality of work remains.
