Leon Home Repairs

Chris and colleague were prompt and professional. Did a great job. I would use them again.

Appointment time was scheduled by email a week in advance. Contractor did not show for estimate. When I called he said he thought the appointment was later. Decided not to use.

Never started, never received a return phone call after leaving multiple voicemails.

I was initially disappointed with the company. Chris came out to review the work and estimate how long it would take on a Friday. He said he would email me the information. I did not hear from him for a week. I called and finally, after several promises, I received the information and was able to set up an appointment to have the work done. They arrived on time, were professional, and did a good job. I think the company was overwhelmed by the amount of work from their Angie's List Deal. I would recommend them.

They were on time and got to work quickly. They were finished in a few hours. Very professional and courteous.

Did a great job and pointed out the corner boards which had rotted. They were able to replace that area also at the same time.

They were prompt, quick, pleasant and all around great to work with! Thanks Edison and Rudolph for a great job.

The corner of my front porch roof has had some obvious water damage for some time where the porch roof meets the house. In April I purchased a deal from this company for a day of water damage repair for $149. I finally got around to scheduling them to come out and take a look at it in September (I hadn't realized that the coupon stated that must contact them, not the other way around, so this delay was my fault). I contacted Chris via email and stated that I would like to have him come out so that I can use the coupon. Chris agreed to come out the following week as soon as his schedule permitted. When his schedule didn't free up, he instead contacted me and came over after normal working hours to assess the damage. Chris was on time and professional. At that time I told him I was looking at some other jobs for the house as well. Chris took the time to assess both what we had already paid for and the other jobs. Within a week or so I received a proposal from Chris to do the work that was part of the coupon as well as the other work that I had mentioned. My lone criticism of this process would be that I would have preferred that the work that I had on the coupon be done on a second contract proposal from the other work that I was still gathering bids on. To be clear, I had NOT specified this to Chris so it isn't a matter of "fault," just a preference I would have liked to see. The additional work outside of the coupon work was extensive and resulted in a roughly 7k proposal. Not having 7k at the time, I sat on the whole thing rather than immediately contacting Chris and requesting he separate the two proposals. Just before Christmas, I contacted Chris via email and stated that I wanted to do the coupon work only and not the rest of the stuff and when could he do it. He contacted me just after the holiday and we agreed that he would come out on the 4th of January to do the work I had already paid for. On the 4th, his brother showed up to do the work (I wish I could remember his name) and he began to remove the damaged material. He was very polite and professional (something we sadly don't see in young people any more). In uncovering the damage, it was revealed that the internal damage that we could not originally see was worse than expected. It would require more than the single day to complete and would require more materials than originally expected. He contacted Chris and Chris and I spoke. Chris quoted me $600 for the additional day of labor plus materials. I agreed and his brother continued working. I expected when he finished for the day on Friday, we would see him again on Monday to complete the work. Instead he showed up Saturday morning and worked throughout the day to complete the job, finishing up just as it got dark. Again he was professional and polite. He asked before doing anything to ensure that it would be OK with me. He had me inspect the work outside and once he had my approval (it looked great), he thanked me for choosing them to do the work. He let me know that the total cost was the $600 we had agreed to and an additional $260 for new wood, new siding and paint. Coupled with the original $150 I paid for the coupon, this totaled to $1010 for the entire job. This was a more than reasonable price for the amount of damage that was there and the work performed. While cleaning up inside the next day, I noticed that two of the nails he used in the repairs had actually come through the drywall (yes the damage was that deep). That same evening I received the invoice via email from Chris for the $860. I replied with my concerns about the nails. Chris immediate replied that his brother would be out the next day to take care of it. His brother again showed up on time. He worked quickly to repair the wall and painted with the paint I provided so that you couldn't tell there had ever been any damage inside. They did these repairs at no additional cost, which I expected. However it should be noted that other contractors have at times asked to be compensated for coming back out to do a repair such as this. Chris never even mentioned it. It was his desire from the start to ensure that I was happy with the final results, not that he make any additional money on the job. Overall, the experience with this company was pleasant and the work that they did was done well. I will post the pictures of the damage below and will post additional pictures of the finished product within the next few days. I was very happy with their work and will be bringing them back out to do some additional work inside my home and perhaps some work on my roof.

DId a great job - Fixed a number of things that I'd been meaning to get done for a long time. Edison also found a problem with the way our windows were installed as well, that probably will have saved us a lot of money in the long run. We had a mysterious water spot on our kitchen ceiling. Turned out to be water draining from the window through the wall!

We are not faulting the quality of the work. The actual workman did a very nice job and was professional. We only fault his boss for a less than professional initial quote of the scope and costs of the job. The quote should be in writing with a detailed sketch and a real total price. Also, he quoted labor, but not materials. Both labor and materials should be itemized up front before the job begins.

Excellent coordination. Discussed case via phone & email. Initial contact followed by walk through. Dale scheduled and two workers completed job without any problems. Good attention to detail.

Side window wood panels needed replaced due to wood rot. I opt to have it repaired instead due to cost. Panels repaired-sealed and painted. Job done very well. Attention to detail noted. Friendly service. Finished product looked new.

Overall my experience was okay. Chris came out to assess the work. Originally there were four areas of the house which had wood rot. However I ended up only with only one area repaired, since there was a language barrier regarding the meaning of the word itemize. He emailed an estimate to me, and he wanted to charge me additional money for the repairs(not including material) I thought 6 hours from the coupon would have "covered" the repairs. Several emails were sent back and forth, until I gave up on getting an itemized estimate. The repair was done by a gentleman who knew even less English. ( He was Hispani.)It took him 3 hours to do the job instead of six, half the time I paid for, but then no material was charged for. Also the window sill turned out great.

Chris came out and gave an estimate which was the best of the three I had received. I chose premium lumber versus the Home Depot/Lowes lumber. His crew was on time and went to work right away. It took a little longer to finish the job because of rain, but the deck looks fantastic! I spent a little more than wanted to, but they did a great job! I would definitely hire them again.

Excellent service overall. Provided great estimate and followed up accordingly. Excellent work.

Overall, I am pleased with the work performed. It took awhile to schedule the work, which is just as much, if not more my fault than the contractor's. I would use this contractor again.

Chris came out to the house twice for estimates, went over carefully the various jobs that we needed to have done. They were pretty booked so we had to wait 2 weeks for the first visit. He sent 2 guys that were very nice and professional and meticulous. They did great work and finished everything in a very timely fashion. Would definitely call them again for future jobs.

These guys did a great job. Very professional and A+ repair. On the downside, it was more expensive than I would have liked and took a long time. I think they offer a high quality product and wouldn't hesitate to use them again. On a bigger job, I'd probably want to have some other bids to compare prices.

Overall very happy with quality of work performed. Thought slight more expensive than other bids I had gotten. Had to follow-up with Leon for scheduling. But we good work.

Very punctual and professional in returning calls, setting appointments, showing up on time. Great quality work. Cleaned up and left everything "like new."

Came out for estimate within a couple of days of calling. Chris was very clear and honest in surveying the job, estimate received via email a day later. Took a while to schedule the work, but that was due to my hectic schedule - which also lengthened the job. Actual work time was 3-4 days, but took about 3 weeks total to complete since I was not able to be at home often. The workers (at most 3 there at one time) were very nice and considerate (wore booties and gentle with any furniture that had to be moved). Very impressed with the end results: Drywall repair was done extremely well - can't tell where the holes used to be after painting. Exterior trim work is also very nice - paint lines are nice and tidy. No complaints!

Everything went well. The paint doesn't match, but that is my fault as I forgot to leave the matching paint out for him. Also, I'm having all the windows replaced in the spring, so it needed to get through the wet winter and it looks like it definitely will.

Make sure you can communicate with Mr. Leon, and are on the"same page". If dealing with another member of his crew, look out.Make sure you are 100% sure of what you want done.

The crew arrived right on time, got straight to work and did a great job. It started to rain so they had to leave the work site early, but returned promptly the next day to complete the job.

Chris and his crew were very professional, even putting on "booties" when they came through the house. They were prompt, even arriving ahead of time on the first day, as well as pleasant and respectful. The job took an extra four hours (very reasonable) due to having to replace the entire wall and the workers stayed until just before 7:00 PM to finish the job. I am very satisfied with the work and interactions with Leon Home Repairs and the deal was just great. Thanks Chris and crew!
