Hinman Construction

It was a major remodeling project...living without a kitchen is never easy but they were great in making space “usable” throughout the construction process. They are very thoughtful every step of the way. Each night we came home to a clean and organized work area. Overall the project went very well!

We did have a contract for them to come do work at our house. What happened was they came and it was ridiculously high and we had decided that we'd give them a shot and then they did the roof to begin with and when they hired a sub-contractor to do the roof. My husband helped the sub-contractor and they had to replace two sheets of plywood. They charged us this ridiculous amount of money for this plywood. They overcharged us for the sheets of plywood that needed to be put on the roof. The reason I know this is because I work for a building materials store, sheets of plywood retail for $25 and they charged us like $100 for them. The reality is that we already realized any time there would be an add on or correction it would be outside of our budget and we wouldn't be able to afford what they were going to do for us. We wanted to void the contract. They would not give us our $3500 back, to this day they haven't given us our money back. They won't respond, so the next step is I am going to have an attorney get the money back. We don't want them back here, I would not recommend them to anyone unless they have a bottomless amount of money. We paid them $500 for design work and never got the copies. I paid them the $3500 for the kitchen remodel, $500 for the design. I want the $3500 deposit back. I have asked for it back, I have sent them a certified letter, but they won't respond.

It went very well both times that we worked with them. They are very professional and do a quality job on time. They have great suggestions and are a pleasure to work with. We would definitely hire them again.

Mr. Hinman was amazing. His work was excellent quality. We had a real problem with a mud room that was unusable because the wood was rotten. Dan helped us remove the awkwardness of it all (there were 2 sets of stairs into the kitchen!) and open the space. Would definitely hire a hundred times over.

Opinion: Dan Hinman and his crew are amazing. Facts: They did what I think of as a large job in 4 weeks; They were incredibly tidy; They were incredibly professional; I will hire them again in spring for another project!!

Even with mother nature conspiring against us , this project went very well. From start to finish Jami and Kim were professional and a joy to work with. As with most projects we made a few alterations along the way and they were very accomodating letting us know what would and wouldn't work. The finished project is amazing. We are planning on using them again for an upcoming bathroom porject!

kim and jamie were great to work with. kim took care of the design and helped with picking out all the needed items. jamie and his crew were extremely professional, friendly neat and hard working. he always explained things along the way and went out of his way to make sure everything was perfect. they cleaned up every day and never left a mess. his crew was always polite, courteous and professional. outstanding team.

Our house is 26 years old and in need of painting and updating. My husband and I are in our 70s and no longer able to take on major remodeling projects. Our upstairs guest bathroom was badly in need of repair. We approached this project with anxiety, having been warned by family and friends that working with contractors never goes as planned. These well meaning folks had obviously never met nor worked with Kim and Jami Hinman and their team. Jami arrived on the date, as promised, even earlier than expected. Within an hour, having put down tarps and plastic sheeting to protect the floor and rugs, they had removed all of the old equipment. They worked continuously, stopping only for a brief lunch. Over the duration of the job, 41/2 days, they vacuumed, swept,and packed up all of their equipment and the end of each day. Jami really knows his craft. He is knowledgable and capable.The three young men, working with Jami, Jessie, Steve and Matt, were hardworking, focused and professional. Kim checked in, always with a smile and welcome suggestions. Before they left I made sure to arrange for the next project, downstairs bathroom and hall. It couldn't have been easier or more pleasant to work with this powerhouse couple who are as delightful to speak and work with as they are excellent in their field.I've already recommended Hinman Construction to friends, and will continue to sing their praises.

They never gave us the measurements of the kitchen and took another month for them to get back in touch with us. Then they wanted to charge us $26000 to do the kitchen, and we could have done it for much less with someone else. I would not do business with them again.

The project went very well from start to finish. I like the fact that Kim and Jami Hinman come as a team. Kim is there to help each step of the way during the planning stages. She will go with you to the cabinet stores, Granite store or whereever you need to go and give you names of people to contact for all the other parts.Jami is an excellent carpenter and his work is top notch with a lot of attention to detail. We knew what we wanted from the onset of the project and Kim and Jami helped us tweak it and guided us along the way. Jami is super to deal with each morning when they arrive and all concerns/changes/adjustments are addressed immediately. Kim is available to speak with whenever needed and gets back to you right away if she can't answer at the moment. Our kitchen is beautiful and exactly what we wanted. I am hoping to use Hinman Construction again for 2 bathroom projects.

They were prompt and provided an excellent design.

Jami and the guys were great at the execution. They protected the rest of the house, and made it livable before leaving each night. Their knowledge and workmanship are superb. They were not the low bidders; they inspired the most confidence and provided the most help before the work began. That confidence was not misplaced. The results were outstanding.

The owners are very personable and pleasant. They had to reschedule our initial meeting by one week. They told me it would be a week for the plan to be created. After two weeks I called and was told they were out of town on vacation. It took one month to get the plan. It seemed like very little effort went into the plan and did not include everything we discussed and was not very detailed. This was just an estimate that I paid $99 for. I have received more detailed estimates from other contractors for free. I would not recommend this offer to anyone. I cannot speak to the quality of their construction work as I did not chose to hire this company.

We purchased the big deal coupon for this service and it was a little disappointing. They came and took the measurements, but the plan that they presented us with was really not creative at all. So our main complaint was lack of creativity in terms of their designs. We were looking to renovate our kitchen, and they really didn’t give us any ideas or anything that we kind of could not come up on our own. They gave us a custom design and 3-D rendering of it, but we saw nothing interesting or creative. They didn’t charge us anything extra. When they came, they were responsive and they came quickly. It wasn’t just what we had pictured.

I bought a special through Angie's for a 3D kitchen layout. The Hinman's contacted me to come over and measure my kitchen. They listened to my vision for the kitchen and looked at my Pinterest board to help with the design. Lastly, Kim Hinman came and sat with me for over an hour while we tried different color combinations. I will most likely hire Hinman construction this summer to do my kitchen. I've talked with people who have hired the Hinman's and everyone gives positive feed back.

They are great and it went well but the budget issue didn't allow for us to move forward.

They took a while to get back to me, I had to reschedule a couple of times and then e-mailed the quote but then like following up, they just sent it like 3 weeks after the job was already done. I've been waiting for them so not responsive. He came out before the job was done, actually he sent his wife to come out before the job was done.

The first time we hired Kim and Jami was in 2000, to evaluate our house for damages after a terrible storm. Hinman Construction was very professional, thorough, competitively priced and super nice! Great People. We are now entertaining have our deck replaced and with a three season room.

It took 2 phone calls to generate a response, no big deal, but slightly delayed. Provider came and was very professional and timely for the run through, gathering all the info they needed to give an estimate. It was a week or so before hearing back from them, I felt they did a very thourough job in gathering the info they needed and that I certainly got the feeling from their website and meeting them in person that they provide a quality service, how ever, their quote was $17,500. Extremely high in my mind for the job. I got the feeling they did not want to do the job, so they submitted a very high estimate. If that were the case, I would have preferred them to just deny the job rather than submitt such a high estimate at my expense. I have since contracted a different provider who has a reputation for quality work and they are doing the job for under $10,000. The job is almost complete and they have been excellent.

I decided to postpone the project for now. But Kim and Jamie were very helpful and professional. returned all calls and got the estimate to me in a timely manner.

When you think of responsiveness think of Hinman Construction. Redesigning a space requires great communication. Kim was very patient with me because I couldn't quite describe my style.

The owner and his wife came out to our house and spent an hour with us discussing what we were looking for in our project. They were very professional and had some great suggestions along the way. They left us with a sizable list of references and promised a drawing of our ideas within a week. My wife followed up with a phone call to the owners wife 3 weeks later and was told they were very busy and would be back to us soon. We have not heard anything in over 4 weeks.

It was an Angie's List Big Deal that we purchased. The rendering was helpful but it wasn't completely what we wanted. When I called they said that Angie's List made a mistake and they only wanted it in Saratoga County and I am in Albany County. They said they would do the rendering but not to expect much because it was out of their work area. They did give us the rendering and it did prove helpful to us for visualizing some of the things. If there was a possibility that we would have used them, we would have wanted a little bit more.

We had checked with 3 contractors obtaining suggestions and quotes from all 3. We chose Hinman because of the relaxed, professional presentation of the husband and wife team, price, and endorsements from previous customers. Jamie and Dan were meticulous and extremely neat during all phases of the project. They explained each day what they would be doing and followed through on everything. Kim was very helpful with details when we ourselves were not sure what we wanted. They were timely each day and throughout the project. In a matter of less than 3 weeks we had a beautiful new kitchen and would highly recommend them for any type of remodeling.

Hinman was very professional and nice to speak with. I spoke with a woman over the phone who was very knowledgeable and upfront about the costs. They were able to come the next day and showed up on time. Everyone was very helpful and went above and beyond to explain what was being done and why. We ended up not needing a new subfloor (just needed to let it dry out). I really appreciated the fact that they did not take advantage of me, since I was certain it needed to be replaced. They went through all the reasons why it was fine and ended up saving us a bunch of money. They even helped put the toilet back on (where the water had leaked from) at no charge. The drywall work they did looked great and we even had another company installing insulation a few months ago and they commented that whoever replaced the drywall in the ceiling did a great job because from up above you could barely see a seam. They cleaned up after everything and were super nice the whole time they were there. Technically, for what we had done the price was higher compared to all the other quotes we received, but it was well worth the money. I would spend every penny again because they did an outstanding job (especially to be noted by another contractor). You really do get what you pay for.
