SWS Construction

They did a really good job.

So I will start off by saying Steve does not personally do the work. His employees are well qualified carpenters regardless. We hired SWS to install wall trim after a poor experience with an unqualified contractor. Steve came by the house and knew exactly what the job required. He was prompt at getting us a quote, and I was willing to pay a premium to have a good experience. They started off great. Time was taken to properly remove existing trim, surface protector was placed on our wood floors and trim was going up on day 2. They were flexible when it came to design and removed and replaced pieces that we did not like. I was annoyed by one of the men that stood on our porch and smoked OFTEN. When I got home from work the entire house smelled of smoke and the garage was even stronger. The same guy also did not like our doorbell camera and made every effort to cover it as soon as he got to the site each day (jacket, level, scaffolding). I was willing to overlook all of the unprofessional ism, I thought I was paying a premium to avoid, because the work looked good. On the final day they started filling and sanding the gaps. We recently bought this house and have all new furniture. No effort was made to hang plastic, cover the carper or any of the furniture. A layer of dust was on every surface in every room of our 5,000 SF house. Kids beds, new furniture, carpet, TVs...everything. While I think the work is acceptable, the professionalism is not. Not smoking in our garage and on our porch with the doors open, covering our doorbell camera, or failing to prep our house prior to sanding seems like a given for a premium contractor. This was not the case.

I am a stained glass artist and was looking for a craftsman to frame large pieces for installation in clients home. Mike was just what I was looking for. . professional, passion for his craft, attention to detail, cost effective and accomodating and willing to do what was necessary to assure a quality finish to this project for myself and the client. He delivered on all accounts! I'm thankful to Home Advisor for making it effortless to find such a competent craftsman!

they answered my inquiry promptly and were able to do the project within a week. the carpenter, Mike, did excellent work.

He called once and was going to come at 12pm and never showed.

The construction work was high quality and done quickly. Getting an estimate and hearing back from Steve was a little delayed but worth it for a good job.

They dropped the ball and I haven't heard from them since

Steve set up an appt with us & came to our home & we discussed & showed him what we we wanted at least a week ago and we have not heard from him since. We are wondering if he is even interested in giving us a bid...

SWS replaced a support post on my porch. They were quick did a great job. I will use them again for more projects.
