Mark's Construction & Remodeling Co

Always have had good results with his work.

A nightmare from start to finish. Paid contractor to do work above to help daughter with new baby. Mark said he would complete work before my family moved from apartment. He accepted payment, began work by doing demo and then did nothing for weeks. Family with infant had to move in with baby 6 weeks later and it took months after that to have a working kitchen or bath. Plumbing work was shoddy, electrical work substandard, and several old cabinets that he said he would renovate were destroyed by his shoddy work. After quoting job he would go days to weeks without communicating with my daughter, my son in law or me except when he wanted to be paid and then he would show up without warning loudly knocking at the door at 0700-0800 hrs, waking the infant and my daughter and acting menacing. I paid him off despite him not doing anything to our satisfaction just out of fear. Gas line to hot water tank leaks, work is not done to code. i have e mail saying permit was not needed when it was. flex hoses near hot water tank have to be replaced per city. Lead paint trim around windows was disturbed and then reapplied even though he said he would replace. 6 months have gone by since his three week job turned into a six month flail and cabinets and fixtures are coming apart and we have had to pay others and will continue to have to do so to correct his mistakes. just discovered that he destroyed plaster wall behind refrigerator to install water line, did not repair, and left wall outlet dangling and asbestos containing old vermiculite insulation exposed. refrigerator was put on a gfi circuit w/o informing homeowner. Beware consumer.

As per usual, the jobs were completed quickly at a very reasonable cost.

They are all great absolutely. They are wonderful. It's always great. We've used them many times before. We've always had good service. It's very inexpensive and it's on time.

Contacted on 05/07/2014 to give a bid for siding and deck and patio cover, Responce back on 05/08/2014( quote ) "Send me your address and Friday the 16th should work for me , I would like to meet at 8ish" my response back 05/08/2014. Sent address information, my (quote) the Time would work just fine, If you have any questions please fill free to call me at ( phone number ) On 05/08/2014 Marks e-mail responce " see you at 8 on the 16th " when contacted on the 16th at around 10 am and asked him about why he never showed or called , he stated he tried to call and got a business so he never got a hold of anyone, I can tell you with all certainty that was a blantent lie, when i asked him that i had made this appointment a couple weeks ago and then corrected myself and said a week or so , he came back with well what is it 2 weeks or a week and a half. thats when i told him i would not be needing his services,

The services at the time appeared to be great. However, 7 years later, now trying to sell my house and have discovered by the buyer's professional home inspection that the roofing is missing the kick out flashing on the vertical walls of my siding and has caused $20,000 of mold damage to my attic, crawlspaces and deck! I am unable to sell my house as buyers cannot get the loan approved until these repairs are made. Now, it's too late to contact Mark about any of this as the warranty was one year and it is 7 years later, but this is to heed a warning to others that it may occur to their houses unknowingly if a minor $2 piece of sheet metal is skipped. Hindsight, very disappointed.

Mark has done work for us over the last 10+ years. The quality of his work has been exceptional.

Very happy with quality of work. Used drapes when necessary, cleaned up every day, did basic pruning of plants away from home. Workers arrived on time and owner visited site every day. Would use again for painting and remodeling services.

Mark and his team did an excellent and professional job , came up with good ideas which we adopted and everything was completed within the agreed time frame. Mark is scheduled to clean and apply an oil treatment to all the new decks, fences and wooden walls next year when the weather is good. That had been planned for October this year but as agreed, was postponed due to Mark being involved in a car accident. We expect to ask Mark to quote us for two other remodeling projects next year: 1) increase in size of kitchen and fitting of new kitchen units, work tops, sink and faucet etc. 2) creation and fitting out of a en-suite shower room/WC from the main bedroom We highly recommend Mark and it was a pleasure to have Mark and his team at our house.

It went okay. He came right out. He replaced one of the vents because there was a leak in a portion of my roof and it was coming from one of the air vents and the roof was cracked, so he replaced it. It was great.

Did not complete the job after committing to it repeatedly.

We experienced some leaking from an upstairs window during all the recent rain storms. Mike was working in the area and stopped by our house to take care of the problem. He was right on time, polite, friendly, explained the issue at hand and took care of it without charging us for it!! A truly wonderful guy:)

This went fine. Everything turned out great and I was happy with them and their work.

They have a reasonable price. The thing that I really like about the service is the attention to details and things about the cabinets. He doesn't put 48 hours job, he just work 6 hours a day.

Its one thing for everyone to be happy when the job is completed Its quite another when a year later a minor problem develops and the contractor takes complete care of you and goes out of his way to make sure the repair is more than a repair and is just like new! I am a somewhat distrustful ex-new yorker who can assure you that based on my experiences with mark's construction you are assured of dealing with a business that will make sure you are completely satisfied Mark and his crew are an example of a classy operation that I look forward to doing business with again Thank you for a first rate job!!!!!

He said he was going to send me a bid and I didn't get it. He resent it and it was reasonable for him to fix the siding. He said that he would get to it that week but he never showed up. I called him to see when he would be here to repair it but didn't get any response. I never called him back and he never showed up.

It was wonderful. Their prices are significantly less than other contractors. They get the work done on time. His work is amazing. We've recommended them to several people in the neighborhood.

Mark provided timely estimate and completed the job in one week. Mark did exactly what he said that he would.

Professional. Honest. Timely response.

Mark was prompt, pleasant, efficient. I'm going have him clean and treat my roof for moss, and I'll call him for any other repairs I need in the future..

Mark actually started work on a very hot Sunday, the day before expected. He kept in touch and finished it all within one week. I was pleased with all the work that was done.

The siding was difficult to find. We were told by several contractors that they could not match it, but Mark did some searching and found a perfect match and did an excellent job replacing everything. The siding he found cost more than he quoted, but he did not charge us for the additional amount.

Went very well Mark always followed up-returned calls quickly had to wait as he wanted to do it on a dry day-made total sense was responsive to all my concerns paint went quickly and very well gave me second lowest bid was well wroth what i paid He worked with two young men who were great-but be clear mark was here the whole time and was totally involved in all the work If the siding holds up as welll as i have been told i will be thrilled

Our garage was falling apart, except for the roof, which I had replaced a few years ago. It needed new siding, and areas of it were so rotted out that about a quarter of it required reframing. Some bidders suggested razing it and rebuilding. I could see their point, but I didn't think we needed to go that far. Our garage, like many in our neighborhood, is a glorified garden shed. We wanted it to be structurally sound and aesthetically presentable, and we wanted to do that without rebuilding. Given those parameters, Mark came in with a bid that was on the low end, plus he seemed to describe a quite thorough makeover. It's been over a year since the work was done, and the garage looks just as good as the day he finished. I should add that we've never worked with any other contractor on a job of this size who always made a point of being there at appointed times or else calling to explain why not, and letting you know when exactly to expect him. The whole job--reframing, plywood siding, Tyvek, cedar siding over all that, and painting--took about 10 days. We subsequently called him back to put in a bathroom fan. A tiny job, yes, but the job was done and cleaned up completely within an hour. And yes, he showed up exactly when he said he would and charged exactly what he had bid for that job, too.

Showed up to give estimate, explained work, work was thorough and professional. I hired him twice - 1st time to replace siding - he hunted all over to match - couldn't find exact match, but gave me the choice of same color, different texture or slightly different color, same texture. Second time to wash (2 story) house and paint the trim. Scraped, applied two coats - actually received a compliment from a neighbor. Recommended him to another neighbor. Will hire him again if I need to without hesitation.
