Commonwealth Contracting LLC

We had a very good experience with Mike Eippert and the subcontractors who did the work. We met with Mike several times to discuss the job, and he was helpful and accommodating throughout the whole process. He and his team were willing to make adjustments and good at dealing with unexpected issues, like a very sticky plastic flooring material that unexpectedly showed up under the carpeting in one of the bedrooms -- they patiently dug it up and proceeded with the hardwood refinishing. Helped with moving furniture, etc. Everyone involved did a good job and was very professional. We did end up spending more than we planned to, but at every step Mike was up-front and specific about costs. I would definitely recommend this company.

Mike Eipert of Commonwealth contracting was a professional from start to finish. He worked with my wife and I to get a clear picture of what we wanted and offered designs in a cost-effective way. He showed extreme patience in assisting us with our decisions and talking us through the project despite our ignorance. He worked through our strict timeline to complete all of his tasks as promised. He and his team also accommodated other work being done on the house and worked around them on their schedules. Mike was available any time I had questions, changes, or requests. His entire team was clean, courteous, and professional. They always left the work area clean at the end of the day. All of the work completed was above and beyond expectations in quality. The final price was below estimate whenever possible. Most importantly, the project was completed exactly on time as promised.I would recommend Commonwealth contracting to anyone. I will certainly be using them again for future projects.

It was a pleasure to work with Commonwealth Contracting,! All my phone calls were returned promptly, estimates were fair and given promptly. We experienced no additional down time on the rentals. The work was completed exactly as promised and we couldn't Be more pleased with the results ! We have received so many compliments on the renovations. I will certainly be using this firm in the future!

We undertook a very thorough selection process of identifying what contractor to use for the project, and had a number of contractors come to the home to provide estimates (initial estimates were only provided for the popcorn ceiling removal and trim/handrail/baseboard project). Commonwealth Contracting LLC was the most prompt, prepared, and thorough for this activity, and the quote came in at the lowest amongst the respective contractors. Once an agreed starting date was set Commonwealth worked extremely hard in order to meet the ending time dictated by myself due to some visitors arriving. The entire ceilings were removed and repainted within the span of one week, the crew worked many days with extended hours in order to make sure the timing was met. Upon completion of the textured popcorn ceiling work we were impressed with the quality and timeliness of the work that we decided to go ahead with painting the wall/handrails/baseboards throughout the home. Commonwealth was very accommodating to significant project scope creep and responded by stating the activity on the Monday following the request on the previous Friday. The work was then completed by the following Friday. Overall we were very please with the work Michael and rest of the crew at Commonwealth Contracting LLC did, the quality of work by the team was very thorough and met our very particular expectations. They were very accommodating to work with us on various timing constraints, response to various inquiries, and was very good about communicating progress of the project (positive or negative), as apposed to us having to ask the questions. I would highly recommend Commonwealth, and we will certainly use them for various projects in the future.

My husband and I were preparing to put our house on the market and we needed some repair work done on our home that was built in 1959. I spoke with Mike Eippert, and the next week I had an estimate. He came to my house and inspected underneath, assessed what needed to be done and provided my with the possible cost. The following week, a crew came out and completed the work in a day. Everyone was pleasant, professional, and completed quality work in a timely manner. Mr. Eippert followed up with me to make sure I was satisfied with the work. The entire process was an easy, pleasant transaction.

They did a great job! Mike provided a written estimate and was willing and happy to make any (and many!) changes before and during the process. He and his guys did a great job of keeping me informed of the work the were performing, work they were going to perform and any changes/issues while performing the work. Everyone was very professional, proficient, friendly and polite. They were able to complete all the work sooner than I expected and all work was of high quality and reasonably priced.

I was happy with the experience that I had with him. He was excellent. His price seemed fair.

We prepared a very crude sketch map and the contractor used this to construct the bathroom. He and the subs had excellent suggestions along the way. We picked all the accessories from Lowes and paid for them and the contractor picked up the larger items. The job went very well. The contractor used several subcontractors which is a good thing because we got experts in the main trades who all were very professional. This job went like clockwork and came in under the estimated budget.

Mike at Commonwealth Contracting was very professional and thorough in his process. He was the only contractor I felt provided me with viable alternatives regarding the work and was prompt in his scheduling and completion. His team also acted very professionally. The price was fair and completed to my satisfaction. I highly recommend Commonwealth Contracting.

Our experience with Mike and his crew went very well. We had several small issues that were immediately resolved. Mike uses several different crews but was in contact with me daily checking to see how everything was going and to give me updates on scheduling. He had given me a timeframe of 4 weeks to complete our job and he finished in 3. We had gotten several quotes and Mike was a little higher priced, but the attention to detail and the personal interaction outweighed the price. We have several other projects that we are thinking about doing, and Mike and his crew will be on the top of our list when the time comes to do them. Job well done.

The project went extremely well. Commonwealth sent excellent people for the deconstruction. The carpenter, Kyle, did a superb job putting together the cabinets as well as building some special purpose cabinets that were integrated smoothly with the other cabinets. One pillar was removed and the electrical wiring redone. The electricians provided by Commonwealth were very knowledgeable and very efficient. The plasterers who rebuilt the walls after the old appliances had been removed did an excellent job, as did the painters who repainted the walls after the work had been done. The site was cleaned on a daily basis. All of the workers were pleasant and extremely hard working. The project was finished on time and with no surprises. My wife and I are very pleased with our new kitchen which is light, bright and airy and appears to be at least twice as large as the old kitchen although in fact it is the same size.

It went very well, the service was very professional and I left the store key with them and trusted them completely. Mike is very punctual, responsive and personable.

Went great. Came out and gave a great estimate. Work was done a few days later. No problems, very professional

We were selling our house where we lived for 17 years. When we moved in, there was some rot discoloration under the kitchen on the outer sill and floor joists from an old plumbing leak. Our inspector said it was not significant. However, our buyers wanted it replaced. Also, there were two holes in the soffit overhang of the roof on the second floor. This was from the removal of two 1-1/2" pipes from a solar pool heating system. That also needed to be repaired. I obtained three estimates for this. Mike Eippert from Commonwealth was punctual and provided a detailed written estimate the same day by email as he said he would. The other guys were neither as responsive or detailed. Although Commonwealth was not the least expensive, he was close and I value contractors that pay attention to their promises and follow through, so they got the job. The job was performed in a professional and timely manner. Mike kept in touch via phone/email and provided a letter to clear up the CL100 inspection finding. Overall, an excellent experience and I would use Commonwealth again.

Mike and his team were very professional in studying the work to be done and providing a detailed quote the very next day. They were not the low bidder, but were selected for this job based on their overall presentation and excellent reputation. Mike assigned Tim Tyson to the job and I'm happy to report that all work was accomplished ahead of schedule, and Tim's workmanship passed the final inspection without a hitch. Definitely a first class team.

I had a great experience. Mike and his team were professional and punctual. I had several revisions to my design, and Mike was very willing to work with me to make sure that I was happy with the finished product. Commonwealth's estimate was very reasonable, and overall I greatly enjoyed the experience and plan on using them again in the future for other remodeling jobs.

This is an older house with existing wood siding. Some needed to be repaired before could put up the new siding. Because of the age and shifting of this house I wanted to leave the existing siding instead of removing all and coming back with plywood. I also wanted a brand of siding that is not common to the Charleston area. All repairs, ordering, installation was accomplished in a very professional manner. We did run in to a couple of problems with time and materials but Michael took care of them all. He is also one of the few contractors in the area that does a good job of communicating with the customer on a frequent basis. Just as additional information, one of the areas of repair turned out to be more extensive than originally thought. Michael was very fair on the price and even brought in an engineer to give a second opinion of the type of required repair. He also helped mark the foundation so we could check later for settling and has given me a quote for window replacement.

Mike listens to what you want to accomplish and helps By making recommendations based on his professional experience.

We were very pleased with Mike's service and all of the crews that worked on our project. During the tearing out of the drywall around the pocket doors, the source of the air infiltration was discovered, also solved was a problem with mice getting into the upper attic (also from the air source as the previous contractor has left an open area between the floor and the wall of the addition). Mike's crew also discovered a electrical problem that we had been unaware of that was left by the first contractor. An electrician was called in and the problem corrected and brought to code. Our problem was solved - no more air leak around the pocket doors. Pocket doors properly installed and in a more attractive finish. No more space for the mice to enter. Electrical issues resolved. We were very happy with the work that was done and the crews that worked on our project. All were very pleasant and left their workspace clean. We will call Commonwealth Contracting again when we need work done around our home.

Kyle was the craftsman assigned to our job. He is a true professional. The quality of his work is fantastic. The work area was always clean when we got home, and we trusted him to have access to our home while we were at work. The finished product is amazing. We also have two inside cats. Kyle and MIke took great care working around our pets and ensuring they were safe throughout the job. Just sent Mike an email yesterday to get quotes for additional work in our home. We would hightly recommend his company.

I got a response to my call within an hour. They came out right away, replaced my damaged floors, refinished them, and came back another day to set up my exercise equipment that had been in the room. They were always on time and gave me a good price. I would definitely use them again.

Mr. Eippert gave a reasonable estimate for all of the aforementioned work. From the estimate to the finish of the job, Mr Eippert and his crew were always punctual and cleaned up after themselves. There were a couple of glitches, but Mr. Eippert was always right there to take care of it. I definitely recommend Commonwealth Contracting,LLC and I certainly will use them again in the future. JOB WELL DONE!!!

First Class all the way. I think I put the other comments in the wrong section, oops. Scope of my project was framing a 2 story addition to the back corner of my home. Making the eating area in my kitchen downstairs and my boy's bedroom upstairs 7'x13' bigger. They framed it and dryed it in, then took down the old walls. They set new windows, moved one to a wall that did not have one in the bedroom, and sided the addition. Drywallers hung and finished the new drywall.

We contacted Commonwealth via Angie's List for an estimate on concrete work as well as building of a yard shed based on the stellar reviews here on Angie's list. Mike Eippert calle me the next day, set up an appointment and he came out on time. He was very professional and was enthusiastic about the project. We discussed the work and he was very positive that the projec could be completed without any problems. He then left, telling me it would be the middle to the next week before he could get the estimate to me. He called around the time he should have delivered the estimate; telling me that one of his employees had been ill and he had had to spend more time in the field than ususal. It was finally delivered via email approximately a week later. The cost of the shed portion of the project came in higher than expected. My wife contacted Mike asking that we only do the concrete work and leave the shed for a later date. He agreed, and my wife told him I would be in contact with him to set up a time to do the job. I called Mike on 8/9/11 and left a phone message. He called back on 8/10/11 to tell me that his concrete specialist had been killed in an accident over the past weekend and he would not be able to do the project at all. Nor did he have anyone that "trusted enought" that he could reccommend to pursue the project. We are not without compassion; bad things can happen. That conceded however, we are left with a project undone and two questions. How can a company with a reputation that drove us to choose them, operarate with major single points of failure such as we ran into? Was our project too small and we were given a story?

Everything went great. Great price and great work
