Mike and Kurt were a pleasure to work with from start to finish. We received several estimates prior to meeting Mike- with each contractor somewhat and quot;stumpedand quot; over the best way to reconfigure the plumbing in order to add the full bath. Mike was knowledgeable and well informed in this regard, and was able to provide the best and most reasonable option to keep the cost within our budget while providing the features we wanted. Mike was able to provide a start date, which did not change as the project approached; as well as, complete the work within the timeframe discussed. Mike and kurt arrived each morning no later than 7-8 am, and remained working until the end of the day. From our observation the only breaks taken were a lunch break- not a lot of sitting around! They were conscious of where they parked their vehicles in regards to ours, cleaned up their tools and equipment every day from both inside and outside our home, put up plastic sheeting to help keep the dust from spreading throughout the house, and covered the floors where they worked. They were also kind enough to hook our washer and dryer back up whenever possible so we could do laundry- and at times this involved moving them in/out of the laundry room to do so. Mike kept us apprised of the progress daily. He always asked questions and never assumed how we may want something completed. Mike offered us the option of upgrading our fixtures to contractor quality vs. off the shelf from a Home Depot or Lowes and brought catalogs for us to choose from- then obtaining the fixtures for us from the supplier. This was a hugh convenience for us while working and with 3 kids home for the summer. When we did need to choose a large number of specific items from the Home Depot, and I(wife) was unsure what to select, Mike and Kurt met me at the store and helped pick out everything from the toilet to the kitchen sink-literally. Would've taken me hours and we accomplished on my lunch break. Mike also was always open to making a small change to the plan. We had originally just thought a shower curtain would do, but decided a door would be better, and Mike had no problem making the change. During the kitchen work, we(my husband and I) mismeasured the countertop and purchased the wrong size. When Mike and Kurt went to pick up the counter top, they realized the mistake and completely handled it with the Home Depot for us. We even purchased a floor model stove, and they picked up for us versus trying to fit in our minivan! In our opinion, the work went smoothly and was completed in a timely fashion. Our daily life was disrupted very little by the remodel. We were on vacation when the project was completed, and came home to a completely clean bathroom, laundry room and kitchen- the carpet was even vacuumed. It has been about one month since completion and we have experienced no problems with the bathroom, laundry room, or kitchen. Family and friends that visit are amazed at how nice everything looks, and we couldn't be happier with the results. We have more projects planned for the future, and Mike and Kurt will be our first phone call.

This led to the replumbing one of the downspouts, as it was clogged and filled with debris underground that could not be removed. He cut a section of sidewalk out, replumbed the downspout to run underneath and drain out onto my private alley, and repoured that section of sidewalk. Mike returned phone calls, showed up and completed the work when he said he would and the workmenship was the best. This was a small job, one that many contractors would have passed on as too much grief for the money. I will be using Mike in the future for larger projects as if he brings this level of game to this type of project, I feel confidant that he will bring his best to all the work he does.

I've dealt with enough contractors to recognize good service and quality work. Mike provides it all and at an outstanding price. Mike is a hidden gem in sea of contractors and I'm happy that I've finally found someone that I can trust. He has completed three or four plumbing jobs for me plus a myriad of general contracting work. All of it was top notch and he is my first choice when it comes to any home repair.

The job went so well with Mike that we kept giving him and his crew more to do on the project. Mike was our general contractor for the job. We have already hired Mike to do two additional jobs.
