It went very well. Gary kept to contract and schedule and built a solid old-fashioned product. He also was willing to look at and install a few newer things such as mini-split and waterless water heater. I enjoyed him and his peeps.

Gary was responsive, gave a free estimate that was fair for the work we wanted done. He completed the work as asked in the timeframe expected. He is very knowledgeable and gives great recommendations for completing the work in a cost-effective way as well. We also called again for him to quote another problem we had, and he gave us a suggestion for how we could fix the problem ourselves at a lower cost. He's honest, reliable and does great work. We will definitely have him back for more work in the future!

We are very pleased with how our bathroom turned out. We enlarged the master bath into an adjacent bedroom. Now we have a cabinet with drawers, the same size shower as before, and a partially re-arranged floor plan. Gary scheduled the other contractors needed to complete the job: plumbing, electrical, tile, granite work, and paint. The job took longer and cost more than originally planned (these things generally do). We had the work done 2 years ago and are still very pleased with the work.

There were several pieces of lumber that needed to be cut out and replaced, which required strengthening the whole structure with wooden braces while the work was being performed. Gary had to think outside the box and consider different options to find the best solution. In the end, the approach he took was relatively quick for the situation and very safe. The result was a carport nicely restored, stronger than it has ever been. Throughout the process, Gary was responsive, efficient and very good at explaining his train of thought and his plans. And the price was very reasonable. Overall, a great professional which I recommend without any hesitation.
Description of Work: I had what appeared to be a rotten structural beam on a carport, the side of which was beginning to slide off the central supporting post.

Gary was very responsive in scheduling the work for a kitchen install under short notice. He and his team were very courteous and punctual, doing an excellent job in pointing out challenges in the design layout and suggested resolutions. He also lined up additional contractors that were needed for flooring and plumbing. Would definitely recommend and plan to contact him again for future projects.

I did not contract with Gary Melchi because he was not the right contractor for my dry wall leak.
Description of Work: Although Gary Melchi of Gary L. Melchi, Inc. was not the right contractor for resolution of my dry wall leak from a dormer window, he did take time to come, look at the problem and give recommendations who might service my problem. He asked no fee for his time that did not result in contracting the job with him; he only asked if I would consider him if I needed a general contractor in the future. I was very impressed with his professionalism and would certainly consider Gary for further jobs I may have where a general contractor is needed.

It always goes well. He and his team are prompt, courteous, clean up afterwards, and perform to high standards. Gary is always considerate of my family's schedule. He is also full of great ideas so that my budget and my preferences are taken into account before a decision is made. I would recommend him without hesitation for any remodeling or construction job.
Description of Work: I have had Gary work on a number of projects over the years and they have all been of superior quality. These projects include kitchen and bathroom remodeling, upgrading my laundry room, partially refinishing my basement including construction of an egress, and others. Currently I have hired Gary to update my front door and garage doors, and my siding.

Gary far exceeded our expectations.Gary is a consummate professional and a fine gentleman,He is smart,creative,both design and use oriented and innovative.He is interested in the quality of the project and our needs more than just caricaturing the business. He took the time to listen to our wishes and help us identify a preliminary plan. He came back with a plan and a concept to achieve our goals that made sense and looked beautiful.He was able to show and explain in simple terms (he is a good communicator) what he could do with our input to accomplish our improvement objectives. We highly recommend him and his company if you are looking for a trustworthy and talented building professional to improve or expand your home or place of business,

It is a pleasure to work with Gary. He is pleasant and responsive to questions. He begins with a detailed estimate and when the job gets changed by unexpected circumstances he amends the estimate accurately. He keeps in touch by email and keeps us in the loop as to when things will be done. Most importantly, his work is excellent and he stands by it. As a contractor, if he doesn't do the work himself, he has specialists on his team who work with him and he stands by all of their work as well. I am so happy I found Gary and would and will use his services again.
Description of Work: Gary and his team did various jobs for me in 3 different houses: Painting, plumbing, installing carpeting, plaster work, re-configuring plumbing and exhaust systems to accommodate new appliances in an old house, new kitchen floor, creating new molding, installing ceiling tiles, disassembling a large, heavy platform bed attached to the wall.

It is amazing. The home is so different now and the views we have to Lake Michigan and Glen Lake are spectacular from the new dining room and bedroom. We can now be making dinner and still be a part of the conversation in the rest of the house. He gave us just what I asked for and even added his own touch in the form of hand made bookshelves and a gate to block off the stairs to the basement. If I changed my mind about something or wanted something a little different, Gary was flexible and did what I wanted. Having to work 4 1/2 hours from his home meant a lot of travel back and forth and Gary did it willingly, even when the weather was uncooperative. Gary did a great job and we are very pleased with the outcome.
Description of Work: Gary remodeled our vacation home in N. Michigan. He opened up walls, remade the garage into the master bedroom/bathroom and mud room. Gary completely remodeled our kitchen, matched existing wood flooring and pine casings around the windows and doors. He added a sliding glass door and french doors in the dining room and bedroom, respectively.

It was/is GREAT! Gary was regularly checking in with us, and when options presented themselves, he was quick to ask our opinion. Gary was cordial, friendly, handled all the challenges that came. Gary worked really well with building inspectors and sub-contracted workers. He worked with us around our schedule, and he came in right at the budgeted quote!!! We've already lined him up to work on another project. Gary has been terrific, and we couldn't be happier!
