Wellman General Contracting And Home Improvements

Wellman had to do lead remediation for 2 1950’s style bathrooms. They completely gutted them and re-built everything in a record-breaking 3 weeks! Very professional, thorough and clean.

Wellman did a fantastic job. Well managed, done on time and we didn't have "cost creep". They provide the installation labor and a project manager. The PM did a great job making sure we were happy and addressing issues directly with the crew to get it fixed or done right. Our bathroom looks like it belongs in a magazine!

They started the project in April and it was done in May. They were great.

I would use them again. I’m thinking of doing my own bathroom. That was the master bathroom and we’re thinking of doing the other bathroom upstairs. They took out the old vanity and they bought an all wood vanity and they put that in along with new mirrors and new faucets. Also, a medicine cabinet and a new beveled mirror. Different workers did different things, like one worker worked on the plumbing and a couple might have worked on the cabinets. The number of workers depended on what needed to be done. There were 3 when they took the vanity out and I guess three to put the countertop on and so sometimes it was just one worker. They were very organized and they were very good. They left the area very clean.

Duane Wellman and staff were easy to deal with, dependable, customer service oriented and the comprehensive showroom made selection of products an easier process. I highly recommend this company.

He's honest, dependable, and overall wonderful. This small, family-owned business has great customer service! His work is worth every penny.

Dwayne and Sharifa Wellman are pros from start to finish. Our project took no more than a month from our first visit to their showroom to job completion. Actual time working in the kitchen was just 5 days. All Wellman workers and subcontractors were highly skilled, prompt, personable and daily cleanup was perfect. All materials met our expectations. Both Dwayne and Sharifa were available by phone and email when we had questions during the process. There was one small problem with the silgranite sink -- a mistake in ordering it had the drain hole in the wrong place, and sink was installed under the stone counter before we realized it was wrong. Wellman checked their records and acknowledged their mistake, and the their plumber was able to make changes under the sink to address the situation. All was handled very well. Wellman provided us a very detailed estimate for the project and all materials. There were only very minor changes needed as the job was executed. The final cost of the job was consistent with the estimate. No surprises. We are very satisfied with our new kitchen and highly recommend Wellman General Contracting.

Overall project went very well and we could not be happier. The entire team was very professional. On site team showed up at agreed time every day and completed the work in a timely manner. A few last minute changes/updates were received positively. The overall quality of the work was excellent. Only minor gripe is paying 1/3 down 60 days prior to work beginning and 1/3 at the start of the project. It's a bit "front end" loaded.

They were wonderful from beginning to end. We had the help we needed choosing the vanity and top to upgrade our old bathroom yet stay within our budget. Once the order was placed, they set up date for installation and the work was completed in the time frame they promised. Their work is very professional, from beginning to end. We are recommending them to anyone as we are so satisfied ourselves.

From day one they were on time getting to the job site. Demolition was contained and everything removed completely from the house. Duane made sure everything went well during the process, and Henry and Ricky did a beautiful job. They treated us so well and did everything we asked for. I am very particular about how the work is done and they met all my expectations. We also had them lay our kitchen floor after the bathroom was completed and it is beautiful. Sharifa helped us so much with picking out tile and fixtures for the bathroom and kitchen and never hurried us. She gave us all the time we needed. I highly recommend Wellman. They are awesome.

We chose Wellman from Angie's list, and from the start they were just right for us. We spent about 9 or 10 hours with Sharrifa Wellman working on the design of the rooms and choosing tile, paint, fixtures, cabinets, vanity, mirrors, and lights. She was very helpful and quite knowledgeable about fixtures and bathroom design, and their showroom has many examples from which to choose. Once we had made all of our choices, Wellman ordered those items, and after a few weeks, the work began. Wellman's workers were quite good, and Dwayne Wellman visited frequently to answer questions, resolve problems, and just check up on how things were going. If we did have a question or problem, Dwayne Wellman was usually available by phone to resolve the problem or answer the question. They completed the job in about 4 weeks, as promised, and we are delighted with the results. We made one or two changes while the work was in progress and Wellman was quite responsive to our requests. We will use Wellman again to remodel our other bathroom and for other work around the house.

We purchased a home that required the basement be finished. Wellman was one of the contractors, due to its positive reviews online, that we contacted. Scheduling an appointment was painless and easy. Duane, the owner and GC, arrived on time and well prepared. We walked the space together and he very diligently gave us advice about building codes and how best to satisfy both our wants and government regulations. He seemed to be extremely knowledgeable and even let us know about issues in our home unrelated to the specific project at hand. In fact, of all of the contractors we met, Duane spent the most time with us and drew up, while there, one of the most detailed drawings we saw, almost akin to an architectural drawing. He meticulously took all of the measurements and neatly noted down all of our wants. We received his proposal a few days later and it was, again, unsurprisingly the most detailed proposal we received. It noted every single expense down. If the appointment and proposal, of which he did for free, is any indication of the pride he takes in his projects, I have no doubt that all of his work is of superior craftsmanship and quality. In the end, we choose another contractor for a couple of reasons. 1) We had a pretty aggressive timeline and after meeting with us and considering his own workload, told us that he couldn't meet the timeline. I appreciated his honesty even if it cost him the project. 2) Because he provides warranty coverage on the materials, the materials needed to be purchased from either him (he has a showroom) or from his distributors. We, however, wanted to purchase the fixtures ourselves. The entire process with Wellman was extremely pleasant and if things line up in the future, we would not hesitate to work with Wellman.

They did a good job of laying down the tiles.

Overall the job was excellent. Their quality of work and cost was good. I don't have anything bad to say about them. Their professionalism and clean up was excellent. I plan to use them later this summer.

They did a great job -- the bathroom still looks new after a year. The tile is beautiful, and we came up with a great compromise to allow my husband and me to use the sink at the same time -- put two sinks in! It is amazing how well this works in our small bathroom. The contractors came on time, and completed their work when they estimated they would. The only criticism is that the caulking has cracked and needs to be replaced. (I'm sure if I had mentioned this, they would have fixed it.) Otherwise, the job was first class. This is the second time we have used Wellman for a complete renovation. The first time was for the kitchen the year before. The kitchen still looks beautiful, and I love how it has brightened up our house. The Wellmans are truly great people, and I recommend their company highly. They have a sense of style and make excellent suggestions. They stand by their work; integrity is the key with them.

Duane and Sharifa were great to work with. They are both very professional and ensured that we were satisfied after the job was completed. There were several issues during the renovation, including messy tile and grout work. We had to have our tile redone and the grout in the shower needed to be fixed. The materials in the bath promotion are really cheap so I would suggest either upgrading to better fixtures or getting your own. They also put our shower rod on at a steep angle and I had to get them to straighten it. After all of these issues were fixed, the bath looks good. I will be replacing the fixtures, medicine cabinet, and light as they are not good quality.

It turned out excellent. I would tell people to use him. I would use him again.

Everything went exceptionally well. Mr. Wellman and his team was a pleasure to work with. They started when they said they would start and other than the cabinet taking a couple days longer to arrive than Mr. Wellman expected, within reason they completed the job pretty close to their estimated time. Any time there was need to communicate on any issue, they were sure to communicate with us in a timely fashion. We continue to get complements on the refrigerator and the cabinetry matches so well that no one suspects that we have had work done to it. We also enjoy surround sound in the basement. We could not be more pleased and highly recommend their work.

The owner's, Mr. and Mrs. Wellman helped us make design decisions and select materials. Both gave very good advice. The construction team gutted the existing kitchen and foyer down to concrete or subfloor, plumbed the new counter location, installed the selected tile, cabinets, trim, relocated some and added more electrical outlets, installed a new ceiling fan, added dimmable led lights (both ceiling and under-cabinet), outlets and GFCI. They supervised their subcontractor's measurement and installation of new granite counters. They also installed the new tile backsplash, skim coated the walls of the breakfast area, installed a new drywall ceiling in the kitchen, installed trim, painted the new kitchen, foyer and installed the new appliances which we had bought separately.. I'm sure I'm leaving something out but these contractors did not. They were thorough and careful, yet they were ahead of schedule. We enjoyed the crew who worked in our home and learned very quickly that they were very skilled (Thank you Juan), unflappable and helpful (Thank you, Jose). Our thanks to Duane and Sharifa Wellman. They have a great team.

They didn't do any work. It just turned out to be too expensive. Their staff are fine. I went to their showroom and the woman there was very good at coming up with the materials that would be used and that aspect of the job. They were good at doing that. Bottom line the estimate was just too high that we weren't planning to spend. First he came out with $30000 some of the work wasn't included like the plumbing they said when they couldn't get to that and do it thorough assessment until they started to work like walls and things. Hey we said there was too much uncertainty here. They were pretty thorough and good in terms of giving estimates. They are very responsive. I would probably not use them again since they are expensive.

I decided to use this company after reviewing all the feedback people left. The people I have come in contact with have been excellent. They are presently doing the work and are almost done.

They estimated it would take 2 weeks, they were done within one week, they worked good long days, they were ALWAYS on time, very nice, polite and considerate of myself and my family. I will definitly be using them again!!

Installers were excellent. They were very careful with the shrubs and plantings in areas they had to work. Cleaned up very well.

First let me tell you that I used Wellman last year (Spring 2012) to renovate my small 3 piece bathroom. I was absolutely paranoid because I did not want to be without use of the bathroom for a long period. Wellman owner, Duane assured me that they would complete the renovation within 8 - 10 days and was indeed the renovation was completed within that time. The crew was courteous, neat, punctual and the bathroom is beautiful. I was so pleased with the out com I immediately thought of Wellman when I discovered that my kitchen cabinet was coming from the wall. I phoned Wellman, they visited, submitted a quote and within one week the job was done. I can't be more happy with the service Wellman provides. I'll go back again and again.

Arrived on time. Techs were polite. Explained the problem and gave me options to repair or replace the hot water heater.
