SWEET SUCCESS CONTRACTORS

Neat, prompt, and beautiful. It is beautiful. He was doing a job inside and pointed out the back deck negated refinishing. As usual his work is perfection.

They were prompt thorough, neat, and particular at seeing the job was done exactly right. And most of they saved from having 2 contractors to do the job when 1 did such excellent job so promptly.

It took he and his crew 4 days and the painting and all is finished beautifully.

Chris and his team were great! They arrived on time and completed the work in a timely fashion. The new shutters and painted front door look fantastic! We know that reaching the gutters is a difficult task with the way our house is situated on our property but they completed the work without any issues. Chris even noticed that we needed another area of the exterior painted and he took care of this job too! We will definitely call on Sweet Success again for any handyman work that is needed!

Chris is the REAL deal - an expert in old home restoration. When I read his reviews I could not believe that anyone could be that good - but he is. Although he charges more than some other contractors, he is a perfectionist and does beautiful work. He did a great job and we plan to have hire him again.

The work was more labor intensive as other issues were discovered. Chris gave options to me. While the work ended up taking longer and increased the expense, the results are excellent.

They were very careful to cover the kitchen cabinets, floor and doorway before beginning and were very clean and meticulous in their work. I couldn't believe how smooth and beautiful the kitchen walls were when they were finished! My kitchen looks fresh and updated. I'm amazed with the transformation and extremely happy with the results.

It all worked out well with the exception of the price being a little high.

The workers were very good at communicating clearly, and prompt to answer any questions. They were respectful and friendly, and even finished their work quicker than anticipated.

It went great! Chris is a perfectionist in a good way! The crew was polite, punctual and thorough. They moved our furniture in and out for us. Despite several issues with the structure of our house they finished very quickly and kept us informed along the way. The new ceiling looks perfect and I am confident it was done right. Would definitely recommend Sweet Success Contractor's quality to others!

It went well. They were efficient. Spent a good deal of time matching the paint colors of the stucco, wooden boards and window frames. Whe they finished, the appearnce of the repairs could not be seen compared to the the surrounding external walls. While the estimate was not the lowest, the high quality of the repair and restoration represented value for money and we were very satisfied we used Sweet Success.

The room looks fantastic. It looks like a new room. Chris took care of all the touches and details I hadn't considered. The room was probably never completely redone since 1930 and had many poor patch jobs and an awful texture. There was molding around the ceiling was painted over dozens of times. The walls are flat and nearly perfect. The ceiling looks great. There is a radiator under a bay window that I assumed would never look decent. He made it look pretty good. We left the house for two weeks while he did the work. He worked with us to plan the date and make sure that all worked out. One tough problem was making sure the source of the water taken care of. Chris helped us figure it out and came back several times. In the end, he had to figure out while doing the repairs. He figured it out (it was a roof problem). He sent us updates with pictures so we knew that things were progressing. We came back the work was done and everything was cleaned up very well. Chris came by the next Monday to make sure we were satisfied and to pick up the final payment. Regarding price. The overall job was not cheap. We alternative quotes for much less, but I did not feel comfortable they would deliver. I am really happy I went with Sweet Success despite the higher cost.

Sweet Success provides quality, professional repair and restoration of walls, ceilings, plaster and drywall. They take pride in their work and know the importance of home repair. This began with a timely assessment of the that work needed to be done on our 60 year old home by Chris Dallaba who runs the company and gave us an honest estimate in terms of time and cost. The workers Paul and Jake are straight forward and polite. Paul and Jake's attention to detail and excellence resulted job that greatly satisfied the homeowners.They have the expertise and work patiently to take care of challenges encountered as they come up in order to assure the work is done properly. They took care to prep the areas to protect furniture, floors, etc. and did a good job cleaning up before leaving. The cost of the project fell within the original estimate. My wife and I highly recommend this company. Mike and Mary Mariani

Chris and his crew were extremely professional. He assessed our interior water damage and advised us to first fix the roof (in order to avoid further water damage). Chris helped us find a good roofer. Once the roof repairs were complete, Chris and his crew were extremely professional, fast, and efficient. Chris speaks intelligently and is very straightforward about all costs. A large portion of the walls on our 2nd floor were repaired completely in 2 days (7 a.m. -5 p.m. on Tuesday, and 7 a.m. to 7 p.m. on Wednesday) Sweet Success completed debris removal, plastering, drywall joint repair, and primer painting. Everybody who worked in our house was kind and nobody creeped us out! We hope to hire Sweet Success for more work next year.

Only made a phone call as I found this organization on Angie's List and had excellent ratings. Didn't even make it far enough to say that I was looking to get not only my house/deck pressure washed, but my neighbor needed it done as well. The gentleman, when asked where I lived, after hearing Greensburg, just said he didn't service my area, but that wasn't my issue. It was just that he said Angie's List obviously wasn't a very good system since I found him. He obviously doesn't know you are able to choose the radius and since only one company showed up within a 10 mile radius, I expanded my search to 25 miles. Just because someone's company is in the city (Verona to be exact for this company) does not necessarily mean they don't service surrounding areas, including Greensburg. And I even asked for a recommendation of someone else. Yeah...that was a waste of my breath. This guy could not have been any less professional. If this is how you communicate with customers just from inquiring about your services, I would not want any services done by this company. Terrible professionalism.

When Chris came out to give me an estimate, he explained what he would do and answered any questions I asked. I did call him twice about concerns I had, and he responded within 24 hours. Chris and his partner came when he said they would. He saw the bedroom problem (something I had overlooked, but would need to have fixed in the future) and asked if I wanted repairs done there, too. They moved furniture out of the way; covered carpeting and drapes. Everything was moved back, and cleaned up.

We hired Sweet Success to make extensive repairs to the plaster walls in our back stairway and to waterproof part of our basement. We were very pleased with the quality of the work on both jobs. Chris and his crew were very professional and took the time to answer our questions. We plan to use them on future projects.

Excellent, as always. This was the fourth project for which we have hired Sweet Success. They have always done great work and have been very courteous, professional and punctual. They are also very experienced and knowledgable.

Chris was able to schedule us within a week of the estimate. The crew arrived on time, was professional, completed the job within the estimated time frame, and cleaned up well. The repaired drywall matched the existing drywall including the texture.

Chris and his crew came into our house and went right to work on our problems. They placed drywall over the plaster ceiling, working around various recessed lights, leaving the finished job perfectly smooth and painted when finished. The water damaged walls needed stripped to the brick, hydraulic cement stopped the moisture problem. When the wall was dry, Chris and his crew plastered the damaged walls to a beautifully smooth finish. They went above and beyond fixing other cracks and flaws they found in the room and finished all the plaster with a nice primer coat of paint. My finished living room walls and ceiling are beautiful! Chris and his crew were very professional, on-time, and made an extra effort to keep the majority of dirt secluded into my living room. It was a real please working with this company, I would recommend them to anyone.

I've used Sweet Success Contractors in the past and felt comfortable going into this project with Chris. Wow, he and the team did not disappoint. I've attached a picture to this posting to show what they did to my house in less than two weeks. I work from home, so I was here every day to see the work being done. They were extremely professional at all times. Cleaned up at the end of each day, efficient and polite.

We are very pleased with the results. We liked their early start (about 7 am). They updated us each day on their progress. The walls look fabulous.

I hired Sweet Success on three prior occasions and after my first experience with Chris Dallaba, I knew I would hire him again. Everything went well, as expected. He and his associate repaired cracks in the concrete, power washed and sealed the driveway, walkway, and steps. He power washed a bridge, removed four damaged boards and installed new pretreated 2x4s, and applied two coats of stain. Some concrete pavers in the rear were also power washed and sealed. And as a kind gesture, he power washed the front of the house and the floor of the deck at no charge.

They started work within 2 weeks of my initial phone call. At least one person was always here by 7 am, the majority of the day there were 5 men here at a time, and someone was always here til at least 5 pm. They covered everything with plastic sheeting (which really helped with clean-up). They were always very organized, and each person knew exactly what they were supposed to be working on that day. Chris mentioned that this was their slow period & that they do other types of work, so if I needed other work done it would be a good time to do it while his crew was already here. So I went for it. I had the basement finished a few years ago. The 6 doors & trim work were primed & looked OK but had never been painted. The steps & banisters needed stain & polyurethane. The joint along the bulkhead in the basement bathroom needed repair & there were a couple of small cracks. The trim & a door in my kitchen needed paint. At times, the crew was working in 4 rooms at the same time, so my daughter & I were confined to the basement a good portion of time. But they were very accommodating when we did need to get something, etc. Each day I was given an update on what had been accomplished & what the plan for the next day was. Chris had told me that I would have my living room back for the weekend. But then they ran into problems - the area where the water damage had been kept bubbling up & they had to repeatedly repair it. That put them behind schedule. But instead of leaving me high & dry, they stayed until 7:30 pm on a Friday night to get it done. I thought that was more than above & beyond. And to top it off, part of the crew was back again at 7 am on Saturday. Where I removed the acoustic tiles, the paint on the walls needed to be extended to meet the ceiling. There was a lip (from years of paint) that they had to grind down & they built up the top part of the walls to make an even surface. They did a lot of painting. They used the spare paint that I had but then color matched the rest of what was needed & it turned out really good. The stairs & banisters turned out really nice & they did a great job of color matching the stain. I was very pleased with all of the work & grateful to get it done in such a timely manner. They did an excellent job of cleaning up. Yes, there was still some plaster dust to clean but I fully expected that. There may still be a problem in the area where the water damage was. It looks a little irregular to me. But I fully intend to have them back to repair plaster & paint the bedrooms next, so I will have Chris look at it then. Have already given a referral to my neighbor.

The work was done professionally and predictably. Dust collection could have been improved, but that's my only quibble.
