I had an excellent experience with Orlando Ortiz of Home Solutions. He and his associate, David, were professional, courteous, and capable. Orlando worked with me to fit my job into their schedule with short notice and set a very reasonable fixed price. Despite the fact that it was very simple work compared to what they normally do, they took the job seriously and paid attention to detail. To top it off, they were nice guys. I have recommended them to my parents already.
Description of Work: I needed a my large bird cage and perching tree to be assembled. Both items were too heavy and bulky to be handled by one person so even though it was a simple job it required two people.

Great! They are punctual, courteous, trustworthy and seem truly interested in your needs. This company gets back to you quickly whenever you need to contact them. They come when they say they will. The workers are the best. My elderly Mom looked forward to their coming every day! Also, when they guarantee something, they mean it. They are helping us with a problem from nine years ago that is NOT their fault. But they are sticking with their guarantee even though it was another company that caused the problem. I would recommend them to anyone. I never had a company that made me feel like I could give them my keys and leave the house in their care. I would definitely use them again for any of my contractor needs!

They came gave an estimate which was with in reason (I had several estimates). They said it would be a few days to obtain the permits, in which I filled out some paperwork for. They came and built the stairs, cleaned up after the work, and I have a great set of stairs leading to my deck. The kids can come and go from the play set and in the house.
Description of Work: They built a set of deck stairs as my home came with a deck, but closed in, so there is no yard access from the deck. The deck is a story high, it required permits, in which they obtained rather quickly. . I have a level set of stairs that is sturdy, and well built. I couldnt remember the exact date, as it was about a year ago. I entered an approx in the space above.

Their communication was very poor. Was unable to speak with the contractor himself without going thru his secretary even though he gave me his cell phone number. The sub contractors he used with the exception of his painter were very sarcastic and rude. When I called with a problem with the toilet the sub contractor came to my house with a very bad attitude and treated me like a moron. Also the subcontractor for the tiling for my shower stated to me that if there is a problem he said that I already had the calking and if and quot;I wanted to fix the crumpling caulk I can it do it myself because it is only cosmeticand quot;. I did not pay $16000.00 for me to do the repairs myself. Now after 1.5 years since the remodel the caulk between the tiles in my shower are cracking I don't want to be treated like an idiot so I am seeking repairs from another tiling contractor. I ordered a specific tile size for my floor and Home Solutions ordered the wrong size and told me that that was the way I wanted it. Again I was unable to speak with the contractor regarding this error. The office manager-secretary was the most rudest person I have ever dealt with but when it was time for me to make payments she was the nicest person you could want. The painting subcontractor was excellent and was very nice to deal with unlike the rest of the subs The only recommendation that I would make is not to use this company unless you are a glutton for punishment..

They are great; accurate estimates, timely work, very professional, excellent team to work with. They did our kitchen remodel 6 years prior. I highly recommend them. As a matter of fact, my neighbor just contracted with them to remodel her kitchen.

Firm was hired as the General Contractor. The contractual estimate was increased from the initial estimate, General contractor stated this was due to a sub-consultant error. The contractual estimate had a $1,000 error that the general contractor tried to make us pay for. The contractor made numerous errors that he tried to blame on the plans and/or the home owners. On many occasions I had to show him my set of plans for him to concur that he was incorrect. Toward the end he become more verbally abusive. Contractor was eventually fired for abandonment of the project. The following list contains the specific complaints: Not built per contract plans: 1. Foundation penetrations not sealed. 2. Exterior siding installed with corner boards. 3. Apron copper flashing was not installed. 4. Aluminum wrapped fascia was not installed. 5.

Response from HOME SOLUTIONS
The members are both engineers who conveyed to myself and my employees that who ever you are and whatever your education (as well as real life experience) that you do not know what you are doing and that they are superior to you. They would scream & yell at each other on a constant basis unrelated to the work that was being performed. They then turned their abusive nature towards the employees on site and our office staff. Some of our employees refused to work at the home due to a hostile work environment. The members would try to take advantage of any and every situation. One example is this thousand dollar “error”. On our supplementary payment schedule (which states the payments and when they are due) our office manager made an honest mathematical mistake by one thousand dollars. THE TOTAL ON THE CONTRACT is what was negotiated, accepted and signed for. They also did not make the required payments when stated on the schedule and work on their project did in fact cease. There are many false allegations by the members. They filed a complaint with the Better Business Bureau and all allegations were dismissed. To our knowledge, no small claims complaint was ever filed nor was any other consumer agency alerted. In their picture they show you the “work in progress” to suggest we left the job that way. In fact, we did not. Where is the “Job Finished Picture”? The job on the exterior was complete, except for some trim and screens, the job was finished. The members are vindictive and unhappy people that want to inflict unpleasantness when they do not get their way. Angie’s List gives them the forum to do so. There is always another side to the story and these are the real facts that go with it. We at Home Solutions have an A+ Accredited rating with the Better Business Bureau and many satisfied clients. Here at Home Solutions we put the customer first and go to great lengths to make them happy even if it is not in our best interests.
