I wanted to hire an unlicensed contractor, but my sister insisted on a contractor. We were referred to Wayne by our next door neighbor who is a long time realtor, and his wife. After getting quotes from unlicensed workers, but reputable and from Wayne, we decided on using Wayne. There was less than a $200 difference if that much. We are really glad we chose Wayne. He was courteous, quick, patient, prompt, kind, and thorough. The workmanship is spectacular and Wayne went out of his way to accommodate our needs. We will be hiring Wayne for more of our home improvement needs and I highly recommend him,
Description of Work: We had laminates put down in our living room/dining area. We hired Wayne for the labor only.

Could not have been better. Promptly returned my phone calls, performed the service quickly, worked with me even though I am not in the location of the work being performed. The quote was the final price and the quality of the work was excellent.

I just had a job completed by Wayne, from Distinctive Builders. I had one bathroom renovated with a new tub and doors installed, retiled floors & walls, painted, electrical & plumbing work. In the other bathroom I had a new floor put down and painted. I had a problem with a water leak after he took up the floor. He addressed the problem & fixed it immediately. He was right on the mark with knowing what to do. He not only did the big job but hung mirrors, put up pictures, put back switch plates and he offered great suggestions while doing the job in order for it to have a finished look. His suggestions turned out perfect as my bathrooms look beautiful. His licensed plumber & electrician did a very professional job. They came on time so the job was not held up. No matter where I purchased my materials, which was in different locations, he picked up everything. Wayne was always on time, returned my phone calls and cleaned up at the end of the day. He is reliable, respectful. quality workmanship, fair in price & a pleasure to do business with. I world definitely recommend him.
Description of Work: Remodeled both of my bathrooms. New tub with doors installed, wall & floors tiled, painting, electrical & plumbing work.

Description of Work: I used Distinctive Builders for carpentry wood working about a month ago. They fixed our door and he added some wood to my kitchen cabinet. He did a lot to my door I mean he really put on a lot of because it was all cracked it was like open and everything on the bottom of the door it was open and water was coming in and so he did a lot to it and painted the whole thing and re-painted the whole door.
