Corky and his crew were wonderful! I love love love my new kitchen!!! thanks guys for brightening my home and life! professional, skilled, did it right!
Things went better than we could have ever expected. Corky and his crew were amazing on all accounts. Whenever I thought a project was overwhelming he was calm, cool, and collected and he came up with the best solution for a price that was far below what I had anticipated. Since meeting Corky I have referred him to all of my friends and family. I would never go to anyone else. Thank you immensely, Corky and Crew!!!!
Description of Work: We need a complete wall taken down due to water damage and reconstructed. We also needed two bathrooms completely renovated. He did flooring throughout and connected us with talented and reliable workers whenever something unexpected crept up. In essence, he was our "go to guy" on all matters pertaining to our home improvement; which ended up being a far bigger endeavor than we anticipated.
Corky and crew did a beautiful job on our beach home renovation. He and his crew were kind, knowledgeable, and trustworthy. We enjoyed getting to know all of them and would definitely use them again. We are grateful for the time they dedicated to our project. We love our newly renovated home-away-from-home.

It went well. If there was a problem I would call his cell phone directly and he would come that day to fix the issue.
Description of Work: A closet was constructed and shelves were made
jobs went great, roof which was the only time sensitive job was done very quickly and professionally with quality work. Door/floor replacement was also done very well but we were not in a hurry so when the doors took a while to arrive that was the only delay, the quality of work was exceptional, we had replaced one of the doors when we purchased the house 12 years ago and it was not done properly. I was never pressured about payment and the job was done on budget.
Description of Work: Roof replacement due to hurricane damage and over due repairs to exterior doors, one in kitchen with rotten flooring and another in garage
Awesome! Professional, responsive, trustworthy, fair, good communication, excellent work results in everything done from drywall, painting to room addition.
Description of Work: Room addition, Flooring tile and wood, new roof, hurricane repair, interior painting
Corkey and his crew were great, did a wonderful job. I couldn't be happier, and when my building got broken into he worked it in to fix that for me. I am planning on having him back again!!!!

I have never been more pleased with a contractor in all the years I have owned a home. Corky was very professional & from the first meeting he has been totally cooperative and professional. The staff was very helpful and went out of their way to make sure we got a totally professional job done in a punctual timeframe. I am planning to use Corky for some additional work including painting the entire interior of the house. The quality of the work is excellent and he deserves a very high rating.

Our project included a full kitchen remodel, complete flooring replacement, remodel of 3 bathrooms, painting and electrical work. Corky was very professional, cost conscious, punctual and delivered on our requirements. He offered design ideas that improved the remodel. Corky, Mike and the rest of the team are craftsmen, who understand how to solve the problems encountered in a project of this size. They have been a pleasure to work with. The results of the project are outstanding. We look forward to working with Corky and his team in the future and we would highly recommend them to work on any project.

Super nice and knowledgeable. The issue is we couldn't get a written quote with a general cost breakdown of the different options we were considering. We only ever recieved a lump sum estimate so its hard to get past that point.

So far everything is going well. I’ve talked with them about coming out, they haven’t actually done the work yet. Things are progressing, it’s good. They did not charge me for the estimate. He is very busy, which I understand, so it took him a while to get back to me. He answered any questions that I had, even made some positive suggestions and very professional.
Description of Work: He came by and gave me an estimate. It was for finishing out my attic. I’m going to put a couple of rooms in and a bathroom upstairs.

It was a great process. An estimate was done while I was working. The owner and foreman came on a Saturday to go over everything he had on his estimate. We agreed to some improvements and making the choices went well because they were both there. The work completed was amazing. I love my roof and my deck is beautiful.
Description of Work: Had my asphalt shingle roof replaced because of storm damage. Also had damaged deck replaced and enclosed.

The project turned out very nicely. We love the tile work and the final project and feel that Corky is a great craftsman. We would definately hire him again. We did however run into some challenges and I would advise any future clients to be sure and have a project manager on site throughout the project. Corky's team came into our fully furnished 3 bedroom condo and began working without covering any of the electronics, furniture, beddings. They spralled out throughout every room of the condo and used our dining room table, teak outdoor funiture as their work stations. (one of our teak chairs was broken during the wear and tear) Corky did fix the broken chair. My husband and I live out of town and came down after the first week to an entire condo covered in 1/4' of dust and dirt. We spent 17 hours cleaning and then went to the store and bought plastic sheeting to cover all of our furniture, electronics, lamps, couches, chairs, etc. We were very dissapointed that our property was so poorly treated. I will say that the final product was excellent and we were very pleased. If I work with Corky again I would be sure someone was there project managing from the first day to be sure that the standard prep is done and care is given to personal items.
Description of Work: We recently had 2 bathrooms remodeled in our Wrightsville Beach condo. We worked with Corky and his crew to install all new fixtures, new shower, bath tub, toilets, vanities, and bath tub and tile on floors, bath tub and shower.

We sold the house before we needed to make the repairs, but we could not be happier with how professional Corky Gilbert was in responsing to all of our big and small needs. He took the time to really listen to our concerns; never once did we feel rushed or discounted. I definately would call him again should the need arise.
Description of Work: We needed to replace rotted soffit, clean and re seal gutter, install rain diverter; rebuild shed lean to for pump including siding, roof and trim; install flashing; repair bifold door; replace gate latch and hinges and repair gate; and haul debris and paint new soffit, trim and siding.

The work was excellent and the crew was friendly, prompt and thoughtful. Corky was there most days working with his guys and it was nice that he was there to oversee everything. Since we were there during much of the construction they were very accommodating. When we added a few things along the way, Corky was very open to changing the scope of the work and had a lot of good suggestions and ideas. You can tell he has been doing this a long time and takes great pride in his work!
Description of Work: We had all Windows, Doors, Siding, Fascia, soffit and all trim on the outside of our house replaced. SInce it is beachfront, it was important that it was done just right. Also had a bathroom remodeled and some interior work done. Corky and crew delivered!
Great! Corky and his crew did a great job. I had some major repairs and renovations completed while trying to sell my home. Very good price and completed all the work in time for the closing even with weather delays. Can highly recommend.

Job #1 - Corky and his crew do excellent work and show outstanding attention to detail. Corky is easy to work with. He offered suggestions, while the work was in progress, that we would not have considered - which improved the outcome tremendously. I feel that he is honest, strives to understand what I want, and makes suggestions that save money. He hires hard workers who are always respectful, polite and professional. They were considerate of our needs, and always left the work area clean when finished for the day. Job #2 - Because of the scope of the job for the new addition, we wanted to be sure we did our due-diligence, and requested quotes from three construction companies, Advantage Construction included. Not only was Corky’s bid far more reasonable than the others, he immediately took my drawing and made suggestions on minor design tweaks/options, as well as ways to save us money. He has a good eye for design, and offers solutions to problems without raising his projected cost. It was a no-brainer. We are not quite half-way into the project, and are very pleased so far. Don is a skilled carpenter, and it is obvious he knows what he is doing – the entire crew has done a great job, they have been reliable, have worked hard, and have been a pleasure to work with. I’ve already made a change to one of the window sizes after the wall went up, and Corky made the adjustment without question. If not here working himself, which he often is, Corky stops by every evening to check on the day’s work, and to see if we have any questions. I can’t wait to see the finished product! I will finish my review when this build is complete, but as of now, I give them an A+.
Description of Work: Job #1 - Complete remodel of two bathrooms: master bath - replaced garden tub with large walk-in tiled shower with custom solid-surface floor pan, cement board on walls, relocated toilet, added a linen closet, cut-down a partial wall to provide a better line-of-sight to the window, replaced vanity top, replaced floor tile, and installed crown molding; upstairs spare bath – reworked the space so that we could fit a full-sized bathtub/shower combo within the confines of sloped ceilings and relocated toilet (both involved tearing up the subfloor and back wall to re-route plumbing), replaced sheetrock with cement board on walls, tiled around the tub and up onto sloped part of ceiling, and re-tiled floor. Job #2 - We have now started a second major project .. a 22’x32’ addition to our home, including a family room with vaulted ceiling, large laundry room, walk-through master closet, and covered deck with a shed-roof.

I found Corky on Angie's list, and am very happy that I did. He and his crew do professional work for a reasonable price. He made suggestions that saved me money, as well as suggestions to improve the flow of the space - just what I was looking for! I provided the initial layout, and with his eye for design he made suggestions that made the master bath look much more open with very minor changes. His master carpenter, Paul, is very experienced and does excellent work. He hires contractors who are respectful, polite and professional - they obviously care just as much about the work they are doing as he does. We are about to add a 700' addition to the back of our home. We did our due diligence, and got 3 additional estimates. Corky came in the lowest, by far. I trust him, have seen the attention to detail he and Paul put into their work, and know he will oversee and manage his crew and contractors in a way that will more than meet my expectations. He is creative and has already made some suggestions to the initial plans that will save us money, and will enhance the look of the space!
