Although Kettering Construction is very aggressive about getting work, the quality of their work is just OK. Our bathroom tile floor is uneven and they did not put in a lip around the edges, so it looks a little sloppy where it meets the wall. Also, they do not complete projects in a timely manner (they underestimated potential issues arising) and when they came upon issues with installing our pedestal sink, they left it incomplete for a least a week before they came back to caulk and secure it. They also did not remove the old sink and materials. We wouldn?t hire them again.
Description of Work: Kettering Construction addressed electrical issues on our Truth in Housing Report, installed a new fixture on our clawfoot tub, installed a new bathroom tile floor, and started to install a new pedestal sink. They were also supposed to build an access panel in our wall and install another tub fixture, but were not able to complete that portion of the job.

Response from KETTERING CONSTRUCTION
Pedestal sink came with incorrect hardware and no instructions making it very difficult to secure to the wall correctly. Tile floor is slightly uneven, the customer didn't wish to do what was necessary to level the floor and they we're made aware it might be an issue. The "lip" around the edge if the tile is probably a reference quarter-round, they are correct that I did not install any because quarter-round is typically not installed over wall tile nor was I asked to install any type of wall trim. The customer was supposed to call me when other contractors had finished portions of the project necessary to complete my own. When I followed up with them I was made aware of these issues, I made an earnest effort to explain the confusion and correct problems.
