Tom does fantastic work! He's willing to work with his customers to meet their needs/desires. We seem to give him new challenges on each project and he always meets the challenge. With the Bath/Kitchen projects, we knew what materials we wanted, so we directly bought ithem from various sources and had them delivered to the house in time for Tom to perform the work. Other contractors gave us quotes that included materials (and the overhead they add onto it) so Tom was a lower-cost solution without a drop in quality (if you're willing to do the homework to get materials yourself). The Master Bath had some items he had never worked with before: a certain no-frame sliding shower door, a heated towel rack with timer switch (Tom discovered the disconnected wire within the towel rack that he fixed so it would work) and a shower panel with a rain head/hand-held/body jets - the panel had unusual water connections that he solved. In the Kitchen we wanted to have hard-wired power strips installed under the cabinets - we now have over 24 outlets in our kitchen - an outlet wherever you might need one. Also in the kitchen we wanted a regular doorway opened up into an arched opening just like the arched openings between other rooms in the house (to match the home's character) - it matches exactly. For the Deck project, we needed Tom to remove a large window and convert the opening into a sliding door leading to the deck; also move an outside water faucet, move an HVAC return vent and install an outside electrical outlet and exterior lighting. We would not hesitate to recommend Tom and often have. Our neighbors asked for his contact information for their projects. I just hope he's not too busy when we need to schedule a future project. He commits to a project until it's complete before moving on to the next project, so you need to contact him at least a month or two ahead of time.
Description of Work: Remodeled Master Bath (Oct 2013, $9460), Remodeled Kitchen (Jul 2014, $7905) and built a 200 sq ft Deck (Jul 2015, $9450). Tom was originally referred to us by a family member and a friend (two independent recommendations) and has become our go-to contractor for home improvements. For the Bath/Kitchen remodels, he took the rooms down to the studs. Also for the Bath/Kitchen, we bought the majority of the materials ourselves: Bath - vanities/cabinets, drawer pulls, countertops, faucets, toilet, tile & grout, shower door, shower panel, radiant heating kit, heated towel rack, air vent, paint and mirrors; Kitchen - cabinets, drawer pulls, countertops, faucet, garbage disposal, under-cabinet lighting & outlet strips, new appliances, cork flooring, backsplash tile & grout and paint. Tom provided the basic construction materials: electrical, plumbing, wall boards, insulation, etc. Tom directly bought all the materials for building the deck.
