They were great

It went wonderfully well. Scott and Scott came over to discuss my ideas, they came back with drawings and suggestions. I went with their ideas for painting the dark woodwork in the kitchen and I am so glad I did. It looks fantastic. They brought over the cost estimates and time lines and started to work within a reasonable time. All their workers were professional very skilled. The project was fairly extensive and took about a month to complete. The result is lovely. Clean-up was done each evening Scott checked in regularly, they guided me in my search for a front door and for a company to install louvers in the new windows to replace shades. I found all their recommendations sound and reliable. The whole process was so well done and we were very pleased. Riggs and Martin were wonderful to work with.

It was kind of funny because there were five of us on the street who remodeled our houses at the same time, and I think 3 of them went with Riggs & Martin. We went with someone else. We had specific ideas about what we wanted done. Riggs & Martin came in and said "well no, you don't want it done that way, you want it this way." They weren't always listening to us as to what we wanted done. Also, their quote was $40,000 over what we paid. We wanted a certain siding material and they said "no you don't what this material, you want this kind." They had experience working with our designer, but they didn't like him. We figured we wanted someone who would get along with our designer, so we opted to go with another company. But, we've seen Riggs & Martin's work in the neighborhood and they do very good work.

Scott Riggs and Scott Weaver, the owners of the company, did a great job. Even though they were incredibly busy at the time, they communicated very well and professionally. They gave us lots of good advice and were very careful not to make promises they couldn't keep. Their small team self performed some of the finish carpentry and other finish work, but most of the work was subbed out to an excellent group of trustworthy subs. They also really stand by their work and are conscientious about fixing punch list items. I think Scott Weaver did an excellent job of tracking and accounting for the many small adjustments we made to the plan, and Scott Riggs did an excellent job of consulting on the design, especially the kitchen and bathrooms. Basically, Scott and Scott are a couple of straightforward, stand up guys who really know their stuff. The only problem we had was with the painter, and that was because we made them hire a cheaper sub. Riggs and Martin wasn't the cheapest contractor out there, but if you need a big job done right and on schedule, call them.

Nobody believes us when we tell them what a great experience we had with Riggs and Martin. Scott Riggs has a wealth of knowledge and experience that he brings to his designs and his craft. Every aspect of the job was done with the utmost skill and craftsmanship. They gave us a 9-week schedule of work detailing exactly what would happen each day, and they never deviated from it -- not once. They left the work site clean every day, and finished exactly on time and within budget. When we had a few minor items that weren't working quite right they had somebody on site to fix it within hours of our call. Scott Riggs and Scott Weaver are both a pleasure to work with, as are all of their workers and subcontractors. Their outstanding services do come at a higher price, but you will not be disappointed with the quality of their work, courtesy, punctuality, dependability, and ability to stick to a budget. They are truly outstanding in their field; we can't recommend them highly enough.

Scott reviewed the bathroom and discussed our plans with us, offering some suggestions for material options, and advises for the project. We received a very detailed estimate for budgeting purposes only as requested, with a very quick turnaround time. The estimate was unfortunately much higher than anticipated or budgeted, and not competitive vis-a-vis several other contractors that we received bids from (ca. $13,000-14,000 range).

These guys are as good as they come. They have been professional and punctual. Their workers and subcontractors clean up after themselves each day. The subcontractors have been uniformly high quality. On the two times when subcontractor work was less than satisfactory, Riggs & Martin were right on it, and the subs were then diligent in making it right. Since our excellent experience with Riggs & Martin in 2000 I have recommended them to several others, who have also had favorable experiences. Their prices may not be the lowest of competitive bids, but you'll get excellent work for a fair price from Riggs & Martin.

Wonderful experience with this company. Worker was very considerate to family. Very professional work done. We are very satisfied with the quality of work performed.
