Mr. Bergen's team of carpenters and painters arrived on time and completed all work within two days: one day to repair and another day to paint. They did excellent work and left no mess behind. It is refreshing to find a contractor like Mr. Bergen, who has a keen eye not only for existing problems, but for ways to prevent their recurrence in the future. Mr. Bergen and his team were completely professional in all the work that they did. Mr. Bergen was not the lowest cost contractor, but his work was fairly priced. We will happily use him for future work on our home.
Description of Work: Mr. Bergen identified and repaired dry wood rot on dormers and facing boards on our house. He helpfully recommended using only hardibank siding and trim to replace the rotted wood, which will prevent recurrence in the humid NC climate.

Pete and his team built window seats in both of our dormers with an hinged top so they could also be used for storage. Pete offered suggestions to make the seats look more functional (most of which we did) and even talked us out of an expensive option we were considering (we're glad he did now). The finished product was exactly what we wanted. We could not have been happier! We requested aluminum screen on our porch which is admittedly harder to work with since it doesn't stretch. Being the perfectionist, Pete called me to express concern the screen wasn't going to be tight enough due to the rigidity of the aluminum. The screens look great to me so again, we are very happy. We also requested a doggie door be installed. We were expecting a doggie door set in with plain wood but got a doggie door surrounded by bead board and molding - Very nice for the dog!
Description of Work: 1) Custom built 2 window seats including moving electrical outlets. 2) replaced screens and 2 doors on screened in porch and installed a doggie door

He was a very nice person. He responded to my call quickly and came by my home and I showed him the few things I needed repaired. Then the next day he emailed his estimate which was quite high, in my opinion. I chose to hire another company from Angie's.

Thank you for the opportunity. Dues to the size and how heavy the mirror was, to mount it, it would have taken two men. As for the drywall repairs, dry time and carpentry work would require time to do the job. Sorry we couldn't assist you on the repairs. Thank you.

I've used Pete Bergen before. This time, my tenants indicated that the carpet in the master closet was wet. Thinking it was a leaking pipe, I called in the plumbers. They found that there was a three foot long crack in the bathtub. Pete came in, assessed the situation, helped us find a tub that would fit. They broke the old tub in pieces to remove it, had to remove wall board to get it out, removed some tiles on the floor, put in the new tub including the plumbing, and then bought new tile that contrasted nicely with the original. They repaired the walls, tiled them nicely and the job looks very professional. They worked with the tenant to adjust to the tenant's schedule. It is difficult to deal with repairs to a house from such a distance. Pete makes it easy and is very reliable.
Description of Work: Demolished an existing bathtub and replaced it, re-tiled all around it.

Mr. Bergen was an hour late for our appointment, but did call to let me know he was running late... we got the estimate a couple of days later...his bid was outrageously expensive for the minor work that needed to be done..we will not do business with this company.
Description of Work: Mr. Bergen came out to give an estimate on replacing a small piece of rotten wood at the top of our chimney and we also needed a new exterior vent cap for our dryer...

Response from Bergen's Contracting & Repair Inc
The cost of the project was $1,125.00 for replacement of the "skirt boards" at the very top of the chimney right below the chimney cap and a dryer vent attached behind the vinyl siding. Do to the height of the chimney, approx.. 40', and the location of the skirt boards and roof lines, it was a very dangerous repair and required (2) men to get the job done safely. Thank you for the opportunity. Pete Bergen

Mr. Bergen’s staffs were very good. But, Mr. Bergen himself is a very arrogant kind of a man. He comes to give a quote and insults the fact that we have masonite siding.

My husband was very impressed with their estimate, the details and the comprehensiveness of their evaluation. Something else happened and we weren't able to have the work done. We still have the estimate and my husband liked it so much that he tries to use it now for the basis of getting estimates which are collecting again because we're now trying to get that work done. It kind of didn't come that way initially but my husband asked because the project was kind of big and he wanted it broken down into parts to see if we could do one step or another at a time basing on each part. Initially it just came with a grand total but he did work it down into smaller pieces and my husband was pretty pleased with that.
Description of Work: We had a very thorough estimate from them on a number of exterior repairs to our home, as well as changing our gates, some wood rot situations that we have, some adjustments to the front porch that my husband was interested in pursuing. The rest was just painting.

Bergen's Contracting did an EXCELLENT job replacing nine older wooden windows with polyvinyl framed and double paned replacements. The plantation shutters attached to each of the nine windows were carefully removed. Furnishings and carpets were moved. The old windows were pulled out with care. All debris was removed. New windows were installed, leveled, and fully sealed per our agreement. The interior repair used our left over wall paint. The exposed portions of the windows were painted to match the frames and shutters. All interior work was meticulously performed by the Bergen crew to the extent that one cannot tell the windows had been replaced. Once the windows were completed, the exterior was pressure washed. The painting crew scrubbed, sanded, and repaired (as needed) the exterior trim. Some wood was found to be rotted and was replaced with new. Two coats were applied per the contract. At the conclusion, all of the debris and excess materials were removed. Two particular points that added to my satisfaction: 1. I was apprised each day of what was done and what were the next steps to be completed. As part of the walk around, I was shown were extra work was being performed. 2. The interior workers took extra care to protect the furnishing, carpets, and floors. They impressed us with their cleanliness and attention to detail. Mr. Bergen was professional in his dealings and discussed all project matters with me to my satisfaction.

It had been too long since our home exterior was last painted, and it showed. There was extensive water damage to much of the masonite siding as well as rotted wood around some windows. Bergen's Contracting & Repair first sent a pair of carpenters to make the necessary repairs. These two guys worked hard all day long for nearly two weeks to get it all done. They were very courteous and went about their work with very little disruption to our day-to-day. Also, I appreciated that Pete Bergen was able to track down the size siding to match the size used on our house. It is a no longer produced type of masonite. Following the carpenters, the painting crew arrived and prepped/painted the house in just a couple days. After the painting was complete, a supervisor stopped by to check the work and walked around the house with me to be sure that I was happy with the job. I thought that was really a nice touch. The head of the painting crew was also there to take care of minor touch up work. All in all, a good job!

This started with a demand from our insurance company to repair the dormer windows within three weeks right over the Christmas holidays. We had planned to fix them in the Spring, but they said they would cancel our insurance if we didn't repair them immediately. We had a difficult time finding a contractor who would drop everything and fix our problem. When we contacted Bergen's, it was already past the deadline and I explained that I needed a very fast turn around. Pete Bergen gave me a bid within a day which was in the same price range as our normal contractor who couldn't do the repair until the Spring. He said he would make the repair before the end of January. Then the snow and ice set in. Pete had his crew out to the house on the very first possible good weather day, sent us pictures of the repair so we could prove to the insurance company that the repairs had been made, and then came back later, after yet another storm, to finish the painting of the repair. Pete saved us from having to shop around for another insurance company. His crew did a great job at a very fair price. We would use him again and again.

Pete was one of only a few firms that submitted a bid on the relatively simple job. He was professional and responsive. There were some communication issues between the buyer/tenant on scheduling the work, but I don't know whose fault that was. Overall, it was a positive experience. I never saw the completed job, but the buyer was satisfied to go through with the building purchase. Cost seemed somewhat high, but I do not know that it was out of line.
Description of Work: Addressed "punch list" handyman work related to small commercial building I was selling. Work included: (1) adding planks for step footing in attic; (2) install attic vent; (3) replace rotting wood surrounding window; and (4) repairing various areas of front wood deck entry.
