I WAS VERY SATISFIED WITH THEIR PROFESSIONALISM AND THE ENTIRE JOB. I WAS CONCERNED ABOUT IT RAINING THE SAME NIGHT THEY HAD JUST PAINTED. I CALLED AND THEY ASSURED ME IT WAS OK. I HAD SEVERAL ESTIMATES AND THEY WERE THE MOST REASONABLE. I FAXED OVER A LETTER TO TOUCH UP PLACES I WAS NOT SATISFIED WITH; THEY SHOWED UP QUICKLY TO TAKE CARE OF IT.

THE REPAIR WAS NOT COMPLETED AS PROMISED. UTMOST DID SEND OUT A SECOND REPAIR PERSON TO REDO SOME OF THE WORK - THAT WAS A PLUS. HOWEVER, I WOULD BE CONCERNED ABOUT USING THEM AGAIN IF THEY DIDN'T SEND THE PRO THE FIRST TIME. THE FIRST CREW DAMAGED PAINT ON MY FRONT DOOR WHEN THEY POWER WASHED THE STEPS. FORTUNATEY, THE HOUSE IS SCHEDULED TO BE PAINTED.

THEY DID A VERY GOOD JOB, AT A VERY FAIR PRICE. MY NEIGHBOR ACROSS THE STREET ALSO HIRED THEM AFTER SEEING THE GREAT JOB THEY DID AND THE QUICK TURN-AROUND TIME. I HAD KNOWN FOR OVER 2 YEARS THAT THE CHIMNEY WAS IN BAD SHAPE, AND WHEN I FINALLY DECIDED TO SPEND THE MONEY TO REPAIR IT, WE GOT UTMOST OUT IN LESS THAN 2 WEEKS. MARK HUFFER, THE OWNER, STANDS BY HIS WORK. I WOULD TRUST HIM TO DO A GOOD JOB AT ANY OF THE OTHER SERVICES HE OFFERS AS WELL.

SOFFIT WAS DISCOVERED TO BE IN WORSE SHAPE THAN INITIALLY THOUGHT AND THEY DID NOT REPAIR THE SOFFIT. HE ALSO FOUGHT WITH ME THAT THE COST OF FIXING THE SOFFIT WAS NOT SUBSTANTIAL AND DID NOT WANT TO CUT THE PRICE EVEN THOUGH THE SOFFIT WAS NOT REPAIRED. FINALLY SETTLED ON $100 OFF EVEN THOUGH HIS NEXT ESTIMATE TO REPAIR THE SOFFIT WAS MUCH HIGHER THAN HE TOOK OFF THE INITIAL PRICE. THE OWNER IS A TRUE SALESMAN. HE WAS VERY QUICK TO RESPOND TO MY NEEDS AND OFFER SOME VERY GOOD SUGGESTIONS, BUT WHEN IT CAME TIME TO SETTLE THE BILLS, HE DID NOT WANT TO BUDGE AND GAVE ME A HARD TIME IN DOING SO.
Description of Work: HIRED TO TUCK POINT THE CHIMNEY, INSTALL A GUTTER, AND REPAIR A SOFFIT. CHIMNEY TUCK POINTING AND GUTTER WORK WAS DONE TO SATISFACTION.

SEVERAL OTHER COMPANIES TOLD ME TO HAVE IT TORN DOWN AND START OVER. THE MASON FROM UTMOST WAS ABLE TO RESTORE THE WALL BACK TO IT'S ORIGINAL STATE. HE USED SOME OF THE STONE THAT I HAD SALVAGED, AND BOUGHT MORE STONE TO FILL IN ANY OTHER GAPS. HE DID A GREAT JOB IN JUST 2 DAYS.

Response from Utmost Renovations
THIS PROSPECT DID NOT WANT TO PURSUE THE WORK WHEN I INFORMED THEM THAT I DID NOT THINK ALL THE SIDING NEEDED REPLACED. WE DO OFFER WARRANTIES ON EVERY JOB AS WELL. IN FACT, OUR STANDARD WARRANTY IS THREE YEARS WHICH IS TWO YEARS LONGER THAN THE VAST MAJORITY OF OUR COMPETITORS. AS A SMALL BUSINESS OWNER, YOU LEARN QUICKLY WHO TO PURSUE AND WHO NOT TO PURSUE. I INFORMED THE CUSTOMER I WAS NOT INTERESTED AT THE TIME AFTER LOOKING AT THE JOB AND, I''M ALMOST CERTAIN I DID NOT BID THE WORK.
