The young man was very nice, polite, and helpful, and I was impressed with him and his responsiveness. I left a message and he called me back the same day. Unfortunately, he was unable to cover my area. He said he has enough customers and cannot take any more because he takes care of his child during the day, but he did thank me for my call and wished me luck in my search. I was very happy with him and would certainly consider using him if he would ever be able to do the work.
Description of Work: I called him to mow my small lawn.

Called Doug for an estimate. He was very professional and friendly. He asked me questions to understand what I wanted to be done with the bedroom closet and bedroom in general. An estimate was e-mailed to me promptly. They were able to start when I wanted. Both Doug and Scott were professional and friendly. They did not hesitate to ask me questions if they were not sure what I wanted. They hung the closet door for me and even removed the old carpet from the bedroom (they volunteered to remove the carpet). The closet looks fantastic. High quality of work, very reasonable price.
Description of Work: Enlarged a bedroom closet (built it out) and drywalled bedroom.

Doug is very professional, responsive, and does quality work for a very reasonable price. We have used him for a number of years for yard work services, and we are very pleased with everything he did for us in our new and old houses. There doesn't seem to be anything he can't do and he is very hard working and aims to please. We will definitely continue to use Doug in the future, we highly recommend him! Thanks so much, Doug!!

The company representative who worked with us and did the estimate (Scott Preston) was professional and showed a lot of attention to detail. He spent time checking on the feasibility of the project and even had a plumber come with him on a follow-up visit to make sure the estimate he gave us was realistic. We were very impressed. The only reason we did not go with them is that they don't always pull permits for work and we wanted to make sure that was done.

We are so pleased. The work went better than we could have hoped for. Doug was fast and totally professional. He was confident and experienced. He answered all our questions and addressed all our concerns. His work is seamless and looks like it could have been original to the house. We will be calling on Doug and Home Remedies again soon for more updating and remodeling around the house.
Description of Work: Doug removed and replaced the sinks in our mud room and kitchen. He replaced the p-traps and surrounding pipes, and installed a new garbage disposal and new faucets with sprayers.

Doug got back with the quote very quick as he knew I was out of a bath at this point. Doug started the job immediately and worked a total of three weekends to get it finished. The first thing they did was fix the plumbing so as to have a toilet running that was done the first day. That helped a lot and gave me water back into shop area, where I had a sink. It really put me back in business as this was also my shop space and residence as well. This job came out very well even with all the additional work that was required. Have not had one cold weather related problem since then. The job actually came in under the estimate which Doug rebated to me. Doing the tile work really made a big difference and was very much worth the additional cost. Doug did a nice job, he also did a great clean up job and worked very hard to finish this job quickly. I would for sure recommend Doug and Home Remedies as the work was done very well, on time and on budget.
Description of Work: This was a difficult job and also had to be done as an emergency job. This job required the complete removal and replacement of an existing bathroom. The bathroom was located in my shop/residential building. Due to major water damage Doug had to remove existing walls, flooring, plumbing, shower enclosure, lavatory and the toilet. Once walls were removed we then noticed that the building had not been constructed to code, had little to no insulation and had the plumbing running on outside walls which also added to the list of problems. At this point I asked Doug to quote this job to include insulation for walls, new dry wall and paint, move all plumbing to interior walls where possible, insulate pipes where needed, tile a shower stall and floor, install new lavatory and toilet [handicap height], run new wiring and lighting and install thermostatically controlled electric heating system for bath.

Everything went fine from start to finish.
Description of Work: Doug installed a new ceramic tile floor in a small bathroom and did an excellent job. He did a great job working in some very tight spaces. He also installed a rubber tile floor in a large laundry room area. He suggested it and I really like it, very comfortable to stand and work on and very easy to keep clean. The job was done professionally, on time and on budget and he left the premises in immaculate condition.

We wanted to finish our basement for added usefulness of the space. We needed the basement framed in and drywall hung. Home Remedies came to our home, gave us the best bid, and completed the work in about 1 week. They were courteous, professional and neat. They coordinated with our schedules and cleaned up after themselves without being asked. We are delighted with the excellent workmanship and superior quality of the work. We will be using them again in the future.

Home Remedies came to our home, gave us the best bid out of 3 contractors for the job, and completed the work in less than a week. We were sprucing up with new wallpaper and paint. They were always professional and neat. They hung dust barriers, laid down drop cloths, taped out all the woodwork and vacuumed every day. They arrived on time every day and were always cheerful and courteous. We are delighted with the excellent workmanship and superior quality of the work. We will be using them again in the future.
Description of Work: Remove old wallpaper. Prepped walls & ceiling. Applied 3 full coats of paint on the ceiling and hung new wallpaper.

They lacked attention to detail, common courtesy and punctuality. They were more interested in getting paid than producing quality work. To date there is still a small amount of work that they apparently are never going to finish. Here is a list of SOME problems: 1) Estimate was 3-5 weeks, took 16 weeks (we caused a 3 week delay). They would routinely show up for only 2 or 3 hours per day. 2) Shower floor had to be redone twice, once because it didn't drain properly and the second time because they didn't line up the tiles to match the existing grout lines. 3) Shower floor (polished stone) is scratched because they stored their work tools in there. 4) Tile in shower is anything but professional looking. 5) Light above the vanity wasn't centered - they said they were being nice because "they didn't charge us to redo it." 6) Electrical failed and two tiles cracked two weeks after they left. 7) One day later electric for tub didn't work. 8) NEVER cleaned up after themselves.
Description of Work: We had the existing bathroom nearly completely demolished. We built a new large shower and whirlpool tub in a new location, moved the location of the toilet and installed two new vanities. The project involved tiling the bathroom floor, shower and the tub deck, as well as installing new lights and outlets, stripping wallpaper, putting up some new drywall and painting.

It was a great experience from start to finish. They showed up promptly as scheduled to do our initial estimate and they started the job exactly when they said they would. They worked quickly, yet efficiently, with careful attention to detail. For example, as they were removing the old wall, they noticed that a heating/cooling duct had a crack in it, which was reducing the amount of hot/cool air we were getting on our second floor. They fixed it for us at no additional charge. They finished up a few days sooner than they estimated. These guys were just true professionals in every sense of the word. They listened to us, gave us exactly what we asked for at a very fair price, and they were even nice to our kids and our dog! What more could you ask for?
Description of Work: We hired them to move a wall approximately 3 feet in order to make room for a built-in office and additional storage space in our den. They removed the old wall, built a new wall, ran new electric, installed several new outlets and two lighting fixtures in the ceiling.

Doug provided excellent customer service. He was courteous, easy-going and flexible. The quality of his work was outstanding, for the ceiling looks incredible. There were a few dings in the wall from the work, but that was the only remnant of any work done in this room. Also, Doug provided us with an affordable quote.
