Description of Work: We had two bathrooms gutted and remodeled. James was very flexible when we didn't like the original vanities. We ordered new vanities/mirrors, and he returned the others. He adjusted his plans to accommodate the delay in the arrival of the new vanities and was still able to finish on schedule. We are extremely happy with our new bathrooms.

.Because of my experiences with Superior, I can state that I will choose this company over others even if their bid is higher than others. A savings of a few hundred dollars-- as I learned the hard way-- is not worth it, when, for that extra few bucks, I know Superior will show up on time, finish on time, and complete the job in a timely, conscientious way/ And when they leave, the place will be clean and the work will be-- 'superior." HIGHLY RECOMMEND. PERIOD.
Description of Work: Superior has done bath and kitchen remodeling, hardwood floor refinishing and installation, and basic plumbing and electrical that cropped up during the remodeling.

The installation of this type of blind was new to him. He took his time, did the work carefully and perfectly. No problems. Spotless cleanup. He had to move furniture to get to the windows. His fee was more than reasonable.

James provided a very detailed estimate with the cost of the bath and bar including allowances. We made a few changes during the construction process, one which was installing a sink (the original bar design had no sink thinking there was no possible way to do it). James' price was competitive and his punctuality was perfect. He is not like typical contractors that have multiple people and multiple jobs at once. James stayed until the job was done. He came exactly the day he said he would start. Our bar turned out specatacular, and the additional 1/2 bath really made the basement much for functional. His installation of the laminate floor was done a few weeks later and it also turned out great. Highly recommended!
Description of Work: James built a new bathroom and custom bar in my basement. He then came back and installed my laminate flooring

The job went very well. Jim was able to accommodate several last minute changes that were successfully completed. All the materials arrived in a timely manner. There was one tile availability problem but that was the fault of the supplier that I chose. The daily progress made on this project completed as I had hoped it would. I am very pleased with the quality of work performed. Thanks Jim, for a job well done.
Description of Work: Jim installed a basement bathroom in and empty room space that had been roughed in when the house was built. He installed a basement sewage pump, built a tile walk in shower, installed a tiled heated floor, a glass block window, a 48" vanity with two linen closets, a toilet, an exhaust fan and finished the walls in painted drywall and some knotty pine. He ran a new electrical circuit from the breaker box, installed a vanity light and put in all the bathroom hardware.

The work that Superior Carpentry does is the best. James does very good work and did it in the two weeks that he said it would take, he even got the job done 2 days early. What we really liked about him is that he was on the job everyday, works hard. James was a pleasure to be around, nothing bothers him. He is very clean, makes sure that everything is cleaned and picked up at the end of the day. James is a NO1 carpenter.
Description of Work: James installed a new granite counter top. Replaced two windows and a door. Raised the sunroom floor with the rest of the house, took out two sliding glass doors, insulated the attic, installed dry wall and painted the trim and walls. He also replaced the siding and made new steps. Did the heating and electrical work.

They were very prompt in checking out the work I wanted done and providing me with an estimate. They worked in a very professional manner, were extremely neat and kept the job site clean while working. Plus took great pride and care in my flowers and shrubs not to damage them. The job was done in a very timely manner and I was very impressed by everything. My kitchen and bathroom were VERY out of date and needed updating badly. They not only came up with a great price but they also rearranged the layout of my kitchen to fit my needs. I love my new kitchen and bathroom. I would not hesitate to hire Superior Carpentry again. I'm very happy!

We had James Scherzer out for an estimate on finishing our basement. He got our estimate back in the time he said he would, along with plans drawn up for what he planned to do. He was very nice, professional and gave good suggestions. The price seemed reasonable as well. At this time, other renovations are costing more than we planned so we are putting off our basement for a while. We will definitely consider going with Superior when we get around to completing the project.

Overall, it turned out to be excellent. We are aesthetic about how it turned out. They were a recommendation from a friend who saw them on Angie's List. It came with a guarantee. We would definitely recommend them. We are going to have them scheduled for other home improvements. We were trying to do the work ourselves, but it was too much of a work for us to do. This guy came in and gave us an estimate. He discussed what he would do, the timings, and how long it would last them. It was just perfect for us. We were very pleased with the price. It took them one week to finish the job.

We requested a bid for a bathroom remodel from Superior Carpentry. James was prompt to bid, he was succinct in his explanations of what we would encounter, and his bid was very fair. The job was scheduled and done in a very timely manner. His workmanship is like the name of his business, Superior. We are very pleased and will be calling on James for more work in the future.
Description of Work: Our "mid-century" bathroom was in need of updating. They removed old the cast iron tub, an aluminum framed window, old ceramic tiles, Formica counter top and "custom vanity," toilet, sinks and some old plumbing. This was replaced with a new window, tub and fixtures, tile surround and flooring, commode, vanity and granite top, venting and lighting. Some added carpentry work and fresh paint brought us into the new millennium.

His bid came promptly after our first meeting. At our second meeting he made suggestions and explained his plans. We found him to be very friendly & outgoing. He was always punctual. He has a strong work ethic...a few days coming to work when he was not feeling well. He was pleasant to have in our home. His demeanor making us feel at ease. We like that James does all of his own work. He will only use quality materials. His work is very meticulous. Our job was finished ahead of schedule. By far, the best contractor we have used. We are very happy with our new bath. Very satisfied with Superior Carpentry. We will be calling him again. We have recommended him to friends.

Superior Carpentry and all its staff did more than a great job. When all other companies we called stated it couldn't be done Superior Carpentry did it better than expected. From follow up calls, job site clean up, final inspection to on time completion Superior Carpentry was the best building contractor we have ever used.
