Description of Work: Chip came out to do an estimate for a kitchen remodel for my wife and I. He spent over an hour talking through what the job would entail, getting a feel for how long it would take, and really getting to know what we were looking for. Additionally, he gave us a lot of good insight and tips for getting the job done with whatever contractor we decided to go with. He explained things very clearly, and was willing to work with us to guide us through certain parts we could help with to bring the price down. | |In the end, we were unable to hire Chip, as he was tied up with a large job elsewhere during our time window. In the future, we'll definitely give him a call when we have work to be done (which will likely be sooner than later).

Description of Work: They came to the house and assessed the work. They provided some good suggestions and then we agreed on the scope of the work. I was provided a detailed plan and cost estimate, which they followed to the letter. Afterwards I was provided a complete breakdown of their time and receipts for all materials used. In addition they were on time every morning and cleaned up at the end of each day. The work was top notch and my family and I were very pleased with the outcome. I would definately recommend them and I will use them again!

Response from The Home Improvement Coach
This seems to be an unfortunate communication situation. I recall speaking with this AL member in early January 2015. After checking back in my history, I noted contacting him again. However, based upon this review, either I erroneously noted that return call in my system, or the member did not receive my message. Either way, I apologize for the problem in communication, and hope that your project was completed successfully.

We found The Home Improvement Coach from an article in the Daily Local and thought that this would be the perfect solution to our limited knowledge of home improvements. We were good at destruction but not so much on putting things back together. We contacted Chip Stewart to take a look at our project and he arrived on time and gave us good suggestions and he showed us how to replace the plumbing fixtures and we learned a few skills along the way. He showed us how to shore up our shower walls and hang hardie backer. We leaned to use a jig saw for the flooring, that is my new favorite tool. He made the project fun and took the mystery out of home improvements. He showed the correct and safe way to do things. On different stages of our project we called Chip to help us, there were things that we were able to do ourselves but the tough stuff he was there with the knowledge and the tools to complete the job. Our project took over a year to complete but we were working on our own time frame.If we did not hire Chip to help us along the way the project would never gotten finished or worse yet we would have just hired it out and we wouldn't have gotten the quality of the work or the materials that we wanted. The original project was just to replace the shower, but when we started working with Chip we realized that we could have a beautiful finished bathroom if we had some help. He was very helpful and informative about which materials that in his experience were the most durable, he steered us clear of materials that would not last in the long run. The beautiful project came together complete with granite counter top and sink combination, cherry vanity, spanish wall tiles and glass accents in the shower. The project turned out better than we could have hoped for. We have a few other projects planned in the near future and will be contacting Chip again. We would highly recommend the Chip Stewart to anyone who is planning a home improvement project.
Description of Work: The services performed were Drywall, installation of a shower pan, extra support to the shower walls, removal and replacement of piping and shower fixtures. Installation of subfloor, removal of old sink, vanity and faucet. Replacement of new vanity, granite sink top and bushed nickel faucets. We spent approxamently $1,200.00 on The Home Improvement Coach's time and the rest of the money was spent on materials for the project.

When I hired The Home Improvement Coach to renovate my rental property, I had no idea just how large the project actually was. I cannot even begin to count the number of times I was thankful I had hired The Home Improvement Coach. The size and diversity of the project showed me that The Home Improvement Coach was not only talented in all aspects of Home Improvement, but he was also very good at managing the project which was quite large, and he always looked for ways to stay within the budget. The management included scheduling and working with other contractors that had been hired for specific tasks (example: Plasterer, Painter, etc). All of the contractors were impressed with The Home Improvement Coach's knowledge and enjoyed working with him. As advertised, I found The Home Improvement Coach to be a very willing, and a very good teacher. Learning from, and working with the coach was not only informative and fun, but it afforded me some huge savings. Another aspect of The Home Improvement Coach I found extremely useful was his ability to "think outside the box". The rental being an older property, many times called for some creative thinking with regards to solutions for problems. No matter what the problem was, The Home Improvement Coach always figured out a solution. It was my absolute pleasure to work with The Home Improvement Coach. He always showed up on time, ready and eager to work. His attention to detail and strive for perfection made him the perfect choice. He made what could have been a very grueling difficult project enjoyable. I would highly recommend The Home Improvement Coach to anyone with a project large or small. I will definitely hire The Home Improvement Coach for all future Home Improvement projects!!
