Work quality isn't bad, but most difficult contractor I've worked with in my entire career as a real estate developer. Project completion was grossly delayed and Sigfredo stopped answering his phone calls once he realized that he couldn't finish the job on time. Lacking professionalism.
Description of Work: Renovate a house.

We contacted 2 contractors who indicated interest, made appointments and never showed up, another contractor who made a site visit, took a copy of our architect's plans and never returned them or provided an estimate for the work and a fourth contractor who was highly recommended and provided an estimate before obtaining an estimate from Sigfredo who was also recommended. Although the other contractor who provided an estimate was better known, my husband decided to use Sigfredo because he felt confident in his knowledge and ability. He also liked that he provided suggestions that were not in the architect's plans. Sigfredo was very professional. He explained that he began construction specializing in framing and working for many well known contractors before obtaining his General Contractor's License. Sigfredo was always prompt for appointments prior to beginning the work. He prepared a contract which detailed the work, materials and responsibilities for both him and us which included time frames for completion of the various stages of the work. Sigfredo was on the job almost every day regularly overseeing his employees and sub contractors and also personally assisting with various projects. He updated us regularly regarding work, coordinated the work of subcontractors, always personally introducing us prior to their work beginning. He was very knowledgeable of the Homeowners Association's rules and restrictions and assured that he and the subcontractors abided by them. He has a meticulous personality and this showed in his work. He provided suggestions to us on issues that he had experience with which helped us greatly with the process due to our inexperience and assured that we had everything we needed in the end. I greatly appreciated that although the addition was attached at the roof, the game room was separated by a covered patio and he took great pains to ensure that doors, moulding, trim and such matched the interior of my existing home. He suggested an upgrade to the framing and I had at least two persons indicate that it was impeccable. My husband has since stated that if we ever have a storm, he will feel more protected in the addition than the house as it is so sturdily built. In the end, I could not say ONE bad thing about the experience or the outcome. Sigfredo was very helpful, was there every step of the way, used experienced craftsmen and tradesmen, responded to any question or concern through the entire process and underbid the better known contractor by a small amount. The job took a little longer than initially indicated however it was in part due to inclimate weather and in part due to an issue out of his control regarding a servitude. This delay did not concern us as his obsessive attention to quality and perfection outweighed that minor issue.
Description of Work: Constructed an addition to our existing residence tying in to our current roof. The addition consisted of a covered patio and an approximately 400 sq. ft game room which included a wet bar and rest room.
