Description of Work: Mr. Padilla fixed a problem with a floor where a dishwasher leaked. He not only repaired the floor but installed my dishwasher so I wouldn't have to wait for an installer. I was so pleased with my 2nd experience with this company I had them do some work for my father (installing outdoor light fixture) My father was also pleased with all aspects of the service call.

Description of Work: Mark and his son, Daniel did a pretty good job painting, but did not use enough paint which left marks by their paint gun. Mark (father) promised to come back and fix it, but never did. So, I've spent over four thousand dollars for one color of paint and have unfinished work. I chose them from Angie's list hoping I would get better service and was willing to pay more. I paid more but the job is not done and I've waited a year now to see if they would really come back. Sigh, it is so hard to find good help today.

Sorry the sheetrock repairs were not satisfactory. My understanding was to fill in small cracks in walls before painting. As it turned out, I tried my hand at larger repairs at your request. There was a misunderstanding in the expectation on both sides. Yes, texture repair to match existing is not my forté. Regards, Mark Gunderson

Mr. Gunderson was very meticulous in planning this project and installing the ramp so that my wife and her walker can readily approach the doorway from any angle. He selected and installed a new threshold with a much lower height to help minimize the angle of rise necessary for the ramp, about 4". His sons did the concrete work necessary on each side of the ramp to provide a smooth gradual incline. Their work was top-notch! I had thought of doing this project myself and saving the money. Having observed the attention to detail they gave and the quality of their work, I am very glad I didn't try to do this on my own. The price quoted was for labor, not materials. I ordered the ramp online and reimbursed him for his material purchases.
Description of Work: Installed a new threshold and a handicapped-accessible ramp going from our garage into our home.

Everything went very well with the work I had Father & Sons Construction do for me. They did everything they were supposed to do for me in one day even though the sink and garbage disposal install called for several modifications. I was kept informed of their progress and I was asked my opinion along the way. They were very professional and polite the entire time. This was and is very comforting after some of my experiences with handymen. I will definitely use them again in the near future.
Description of Work: Mark Gunderson and his sons did some remodel and repair work for me yesterday and they did a wonderful job. I had an all-in-one sink and counter top with a damaged sink. They had to cut the sink out of the counter top for me and there was no room for error. After they removed the sink they installed a new sink, faucet and garbage disposal. They also removed a ceiling fan and installed a chandelier in its place. They properly adjusted the gate to my cedar fence. They also took down an old security light and when they went to install a new light they discovered the wiring was cracked and recommended I call my electrician come in to re-wire the light rather than being unsafe and wiring the light.

Mr. Mark Gunderson and his sons arrived on time each morning and spent approximately 3 and 1/2 days on the project. The project was twofold and consisted of 1) The replacement of rotted exterior siding on several sides of the house and pump house with Hardie Board and in a couple of instances removal and replacement of a portion of the fiberboard underneath. 2) Removal of the sandstone overlay and mortar from the breezeway. This required use of a jack hammer for approximately a day and a half in temperatures typical for July in Texas. The quality of the work was outstanding and their demeanor professional. When questions were posed, their answers were clear and left nothing to be assumed. I will call Mark for projects of this nature in the future.

Mark and sons were great. I so appreciate Mark working around my schedule. He came prepared when providing the estimate. Took notes on specific requirements. He planned ahead. He made a list of the supplies I needed so I could collect around the house or buy before he arrived. Mark and his sons are very professional and personable. The work performed is also professional.
Description of Work: Various jobs around the house and yard. Repaired porch railing, trim gutter downspouts, repaired driveway expansion joints, repaired dresser drawers, and a lot more.

He was here within 2 hours of calling him. He took care of the job and did beautiful work. He was a very nice man. He went to lunch and stopped by Lowe's and mentioned they had shower heads, which I was in need of. He found one on sale and got it for me. He was very efficient. He went above and beyond and I would highly recommend him. I was also impressed about how personable and courteous he was.
Description of Work: I called him to add bars to a tile shower and a new shower head.

They did a great job. They went on to other projects and could not do the mowing and other things at the same time. So they had to drop some of their customers and I had to get someone else. Then the other work dropped down and they were available again but I had already gotten someone else to mow. I did have them back to trim the shrubs and flower bushes, but haven't called them recently. I did use them in the past to replace an outside garage door and frame. Their prices are fair and I would use them again in the future.
Description of Work: I have used Father & Sons Construction for handymen work and yard work. They were last out about three months ago. They trimmed the shrubs and put in mulch.

They were on time, in and out quickly. I have to be here to let them in and out because we have locked gates on our lot. They were here early and were done and gone in less than an hour and we have a 1 acre lot. They are really nice and I will not hesitate to use them again. They are excellent.

As a single women, I have found them to be a Godsend. I find them to be trustworthy, dependable and they demonstrate the utmost integrity. I have several additional projects planned over the next year, and I intend to continue to use them as I know I will receive quality work from a company that I can trust to get the job right and just the way I want it.
Description of Work: Over the last 3 years, I have employed Father & Son's Construction for multiple handyman and home improvement projects as well as ongoing lawn and yard service.. Projects they have completed for me include; laying laminate flooring, interior painting, complete remodel of bathroom (removal of bathtub and installation of walk in tile shower, tile floor installation, new vanity, replaster walls, and toilet install), fence and gazebo reinforcement and painting, general household maintenance projects such as hanging pictures, replacing filters, installing appliances, moving furniture and my list goes on and on. I have referred them to many family members and friends. The projects have ranged from $30->$4000.

I was very satisfied. They were neat and cleaned up everyday after they were done working. The quality of work was good too.
Description of Work: They replaced some rotting wood in my garage and the walk through door in the garage was bad too and they replaced the whole unit for me. They also had to paint the trim. In the past, I have used them to help me maintain my yard.
