This went so well. The deck had been partially smashed by a large tree branch and other trees damaged a front porch. The work was beautiful, lovely quality craftsmanship, even, true and attractive. Also also needed some towel bars hung and a small furniture fix. All was completed quickly and professionally.

Excellent. This is the second time I have used Old School. They updated my bathroom about five years ago and I was so happy with the work I brought them back to do my kitchen and laundry room. Excellent workmanship and very professional employees.

Not professional work, poorly done and unsatisfactory. Ended up doing the sanding ourselves. If they weren't able to handle the job, they shouldn't have tried to do the job.

They fixed the leak in the shower and patched up the dry wall. They gave me the option to paint over the patched up area. I appreciated that and it saved me some money.

Description of Work: Did a wonderful job of installing (hanging) a wall pergola (that I had bought). He helped us assemble the piece and then put it up. As per his advice, he used much longer screws to hang the 3 brackets on my stucco house. I feel very confident that the job was done thoroughly and professionally and that the pergola is sturdy and there to stay!

This company was extremely proficient in all aspects of the jobs we contracted out to them, and we found their work and their work ethic to be 5 star. In addition, kudos to their fantastic office staff for their friendliness and proficiency in communicating and scheduling!!! You will not regret opening your home and heart to this "gem" of a company!!!
Description of Work: Along with his fantastic assistants, Jerry came in and installed sub flooring in our kitchen, laundry and utility rooms, and both baths, laid tile in all of these areas, and in master bath they replaced the shower and tub surround as well. They did a beautiful job of restoring all rooms they worked in by installing new shoe moulding and painting everything that needed it. And you would have to see to believe the remarkable job they did of restoring the ceiling in our kitchen that was damaged by upstairs shower leakage.

I loved working with Old School! This husband and wife team are very professional, knowledgable and friendly. She books the appointments and he does the repair work. We moved into a new home where the previous owner's pets had damaged the windows and a large renovation had damaged the basement door threshold. Old school came in and made all the repairs in a timely manner, at a very reasonable price. The work done exceeded my expectations, I was so pleased to see the sills looked like new wand the back door was properly sealed. A few weeks later one of my children broke a kitchen window with a softball (by accident). Old school quickly responded to my call and made the repair on the top window of a double hung window quickly and easily. I was very impressed with how well the new window matched all of my other windows. I would highly recommend this service provider. I have since moved again and in my new home (out of state) there are a few jobs around here that I wish I could call Old School to service. I always felt felt safe and comfortable with Old School in my home and I feel they are a very trustworthy service provider.
Description of Work: Replaced a broken window, repaired window sills that were chipped and damaged by pets, replaced an exterior door threshold that was damaged and letting in a draft and bugs.

I scheduled an estimate over the phone. Jerry showed up right on time. He reviewed our problem and recommended several solutions including preventative measures to alleviate the possibility of recurrence. He also noticed another minor issue with our front door and offered a reasonable solution. The quote was sent via email and I was pleasantly surprised at the cost. Jerry did the work on time and perfectly on budget. The repair went exactly as expected. We even decided to discuss a few other repairs and the quote was given on the spot. Again I was pleasantly surprised at the price. We will definitely use them again! Happy girl!

Jerry and his helper repaired a large hole in my garage ceiling. (approximately 2' x 3') He cut out the bulging and stained area, inserted a new piece and did a beautiful job with sheet rock mud (returning 4 times in all). After he finished painting, you could not tell it had been repaired! The roof leak had been fixed by a roofer recommended by Jerry. On one of his trips, I asked him to help us with a wall pergola we had ordered. He helped us with the assembly and then returned to bolt it to the house over the double garage doors. His wife does a very professional job of scheduling his work and calls to remind that he is coming. I found Old School through a satisfied neighbor for whom he had done work. Jerry is very professional and businesslike. He has been very generous with his advice. I will definitely use Old School again!.
Description of Work: Removed damaged sheet rock (from leaking roof) from my garage ceiling. After I had the roof repaired and was sure there was no more leaking (about 5 months), I called and he scheduled a visit to make an estimate for the repair. It took 4 more visits for patching and doing multiple sheet rock mud applications. It was so well done that very little sanding was needed. After painting, the repair is undetectable! Helped assemble and hung a wall pergola over double garage doors.
