I did not have the work performed by this company.
Description of Work: I asked for an estimate to install 24 feet of gutter with a downspout and was quoted $650. $27/ft seems very excessive.

Mr. Cleaves' work was excellent, and he was very easy to talk to about the work. His advice seemed based on a wealth of experience, and he was in no way a salesmen, nor did he try to expand the job beyond what seemed reasonable and needed. I will certainly call on Mr. Cleaves again in the future for this kind of work.
Description of Work: Mr. Cleaves replaced two wooden gutters with new, metal ones, and made minor repairs to two other metal gutters.

Everything went well. He is reasonably priced. He fixed the repair temporarily about 3 years ago and then permanently last winter. He said the temporary fix may last for a few minutes or 15 years. He was honest and up-front.

He was in and out in less than a day and the work looked clean and professional when he was done. He was very friendly and professional. Showed up when he said he would and listened to our needs and special requests. I was very pleased with the job done and how the experience of working with him went. I will certainly call him first when I have work that needs to be done.
Description of Work: The date and the price are from memory, but I know that he quoted us less than the other two folks we spoke to and did the job when we asked him to. We had the vanity in our bath replaced and it required carving out the bottom of the vanity to fit in a funky spot and then reinforcing the bottom of the vanity and then mounting it in place.

Chuck is a remarkable carpenter! This is the third time we have used him for general remodeling and carpentry and have been very satisfied each time. Chuck is professional, courteous and knowledgeable. His quote was exactly the same as the invoice, and gave exactly what we asked for. He may take a couple days to return initial phone calls, but he always returns the call. He is very honest with regards to pricing and scheduling, and shows up when expected. He is very hard working. I will definitely hire him again.

Overall good experience. I called Chuck even a month before I wanted the work done for an estimate, he came right out and gave a fair estimate and was happy to wait until the bird nesting season was done to complete the work. I called him back when ready, he came out actually while I was away and completed the work right away and just as I had asked. No problems at all.

Gutters were backing up during heavy rains. I thought I needed a new gutter or larger downspout. Mr. Cleaves came to my house to give me an estimate. He took his ladder off his truck to check out the gutters and found a large clump of leaves blocking the downspout. He removed it and told me I owed him nothing. I insisted and he took $20.00.
Description of Work: Removed leaves from clogged gutter.

Chuck was great to deal with. He quickly came up with a better idea then I had to solve my drainage problem. He gave me 2 estimates to solve the problem. I chose one of them and the work was performed within the week. So far, so good.
Description of Work: Gutter was repitched to allow drainage to only one downspout to keep water away from front of the house and problem draining area. One downspout eliminated and hole in gutter patched.

Chuck Cleaves was a pleasure to deal with. He came to my house at a time that was convenient for me, diagnosed the cause of the roof leaks, and clearly explained what would be required to do proper repairs. When he and his crew came to do the job, as scheduled, they worked very efficiently and cleaned up extremely well. I would describe his price as being towards the high side of reasonable, but I certainly feel that I got quality craftsmanship and would definitely hire him again. Also note that Chuck has an answering machine in his office. While he did not necessarily return my calls the same day, he always called back within a reasonable time period.
Description of Work: Repair several roof leaks caused by improperly installed flashing. Refasten all gutter hangers. Install new gutter outlets.

WONDERFUL. CHUCK AND HIS EMPLOYEES (ONE TO TWO MEN DEPENDING ON THE TASK) WERE CONSIDERATE AND CAREFUL IN THEIR WORK AND WITH THE PROPERTY. CHUCK DID WHAT HE SAID HE WOULD DO, CLEANED UP EACH AFTERNOON, WAS THOROUGH AND KNOWLEDGEABLE. HE SET A PRICE BEFORE BEGINNING, AND THERE WERE NO SURPRISES. YOU WILL NEED TO LEAVE A MESSAGE, AND CHUCK WILL CALL YOU BACK. HE HAS NO SECRETARY OR OFFICE STAFF, SO BE PATIENT.
