Mike and his crew were great. He listened very carefully to what we wanted and offered great suggestions based on his experience. As the job progressed, we added more things to the list such as a new entry door, opening up a wall, and adding trim to an entryway. Mike was very accommodating to any change and was very responsive to calls and emails. The finished product looks great. We are very happy with the outcome and have since hired Mike to replace some windows in other parts of the house.
Description of Work: General kitchen face lift. Replaced tile backsplash and tile floor. Installed countertop and appliances. Replaced exterior doors and windows. Opened up wall into dining room.

Mike and his crew did an excellent job, they were very polite, worked diligently, and most importantly CLEAN! They took extra care to ensure the house was left in the same shape they left it. Also, there were no surprise costs...the final bill was exactly the same as the estimate. I would recommend Mike and his crew, and if I need them in the future I would not hesitate to call.

Old aluminum siding was way overdue in replacing. Tait Construction replaced all with new vinyl siding and capping on the doors, windows and trim boards. My house needed extra care as the original construction of the house was sub-par and they fixed it right when putting on new siding. They were very clean, organized, and the work was well done. The bathroom makeover was for master bath. New everything: shower tiling, toilet, sink, vanity, lights, plumbing, wainscoting on walls and trim.
Description of Work: Replace aluminum siding with all new vinyl siding. Repaired rotten framing & installed new capping on the windows and doors. Completely remodel bathroom – shower, toilet, sink, walls, vanity and window

I was very happy with the work Tait Construction did on my house! They showed up on time, stayed within the budget, and completed the work on time. Tait Construction did a great job explaining to me what work was needed, and offered me different solutions to complete the work that needed to be done. From there, they helped me choose the best option that met my budget and needs. I was VERY happy with the work Tait Construction did on my house, and would use them again. I would also highly recommend them!
Description of Work: Demo original exterior and interior wall, framing, and drywall. Demo original roof and reframe it with correct pitch, and new roof.

We called them up. They came out and looked at our house. They did an estimate and then we never heard from them again. They were on time. They were great when they came out, but I wouldn’t use them again.

It went great overall. Mike Tait gave us an estimate and started on time. He said he would take 3 days and he was done by that timeframe. Everything went smoothly except when the vents were moved our AC starting acting up. We had to call an HVAC to come out and look at it and Mike Tait picked up the bill for that which I thought was very professional of him. The total price of the project changed from the initial one due the changes that we decided to do and required a little bit more time.. Overall we were very pleased.
Description of Work: mike tait removed a wall between our kitchen and dining room and he widened the opening from the living room and kitchen. He also had to install a new return vent and new air vent.

They were very timely and responded very quickly. They were very clear, but the estimate ended up being a little bit higher than the contractor we went with. I would certainly use them in future for another estimate.

I found Mike through Angie's List and asked him to give me a bid. He came over right away, reviewed the project with me, and offered a competitive price. He then completed the work in 2 days during the following week. Mike did an excellent job and gave me some good advice regarding the work I would subsequently perform.
Description of Work: Mike Tait framed a hip roof over the front porch of my house and sheathed it with plywood.

The project was fantastic. I was very happy with how it all turned out. They were very knowledgeable and helpful in guiding me to the best solution to my construction/renovation. They offered many helpful suggestions that ultimately got my project done. They were extremely professional and responsive to my project. I would definitely, and I do plan to use them again.
Description of Work: I had an addition added to the back of my second home. I wasn't sure exactly the size and layout and was very happy with the education and suggestions offered by the contractor. I had an addition designed and constructed adding much needed extra space to my house. It was a 10x20 addition . I am a little handy, so I decided to do the finish work myself.

I had very bad windows that were poorly insulated. I started with a few windows and got very good responsiveness and excellent service and professionalism. Installation was done quickly and timely and extremely well done. I'm sure that my energy bills will be much better with the new windows. I can't wait to get the rest of the windows done.
Description of Work: Installation and trim of windows. Cut and resize kitchen cabinets for installation of oven/stove.
