Work went very well...we had a very old roof, and the contractor tore it down to the joists, replaced plywood with OSB and pro-rated 50 year shingles as well as matching shingles and new felt on our shed. Total job completed in two days, work site completely cleaned up and new roof is really nice; all stacks were painted after the shingling. After a couple of heavy downpours, the roof has stood up with no issues. Company rep, Tim, was great to work with and very patient with all of our questions and concerns Couldn't ask for a better price.

I saw the deal on Angie's list and decided this was the time to pull the trigger and get this much need progect completed. From the beginning Tim was very responsive and professional. He came out to do the estimate and explained some other issues that needed to be fixed. Within a week all the work was completed. I am very pleased with this experience and will definitely use this company in the future, they were a pleasure to work with.

The entire experience was amazing. Lakewood Home Builders, John Stageberg and Lance Rittenhouse, are great to work with. They responded immediately with any questions/concerns we had during the whole process. And best of all, everything was completed in the time frame and budget that was promised! After hearing some horror stories from others--I was not sure that it would be possible for our new addition to be completed without major delays and budget overages. But John and Lance, kept everything in line. The final product is exactly what we envisioned and are so pleased. We will definitely use Lakewood Home Builders again for some other things that we want to do. We would highly recommend them for any projects you may be considering.

Here are some of the reasons behind the highly positive review: 1- Punctuality and professionalism. 2- Clear and comprehensive written proposal immediately after the first meeting. 3- Flexibility and patience to work within budget. 4- Use of skilled and experienced sub contractors. 5- Job completed on-time and according to specs. 6- Thorough cleaning of the site after completion.

Overall we had a good experience, but there were a couple of bumps along the way. The Good News: 1. Everyone we worked with was courteous, professional, prompt, and knowledgeable. 2. In the end, the work was done very well. 3. The contractors communicated their schedule well, kept the work site clean and orderly, and gave us opportunities to look at the daily progress. The Bad News: 1. The original estimate omitted a $800 necessary upgrade to our electrical panel. This should have been forseeable and we wish it was part of the original estimate. 2. The first attempt at the shower tile failed. The contractor working on the tile had a really had time getting the tile to lay flat and evenly. After we complained, he tried to repair it, but ended up having to rip it out. Lakewood then hired another subcontractor to complete the tile and it looked fantastic. We lost about two weeks of work time between the time it took the original contractor to put up the wall board and tile, try to fix it, take it out, and then get the new contractor out to us. But again, everyone we dealt with was super professional and they listened to us when we weren't happy with the tile. Given their professionalism and the quality of the final product, we would probably use Lakewood again.

Roof was entirely replaced (including new plywood) and new gutters were also installed. Tim Johnson was great to work with and explained everything clearly, outlining the options I had. He also took extra care to attend to a couple of trouble spots where I had experienced persistent leaks over the past several years. He was onsite several times to keep aware of what was happening along the way. The crew cleaned up so well I have yet to find anything left behind. I was very pleased with the work and plan on using Lakewood in a couple years on another of my properties.

I spoke with Tim Johnson. We set up a price through a big deal offered through Angie's List. Tim was able to give me a better price than the other four roofing contractors that priced the job. The significance is that the other shingles were 30 year shingles at best, and Lakewood Home Builders were able to beat the closest price by over $1000. Very good service and Tim is someone I would look to if I needed another big job done on the construction of the home, and I was not able to find the time to complete it myself. There is a reason Lakewood Home Builders has been a service award winner with Angie's list for the last three years. Seriously consider giving them a call when you have a roof that needs to be fixed or replaced.
Description of Work: We had the shingles and paper removed, and winter protection of 3 feet from the edge, 50 year shingles, and the necessary paper and edging was completed.

Tim was a pleasure to deal with, when we met we told him what we were interested in doing and the budget we had. He provided a plan to us and we decided to go for it. As with any project even though you have a budget you end up spending more. One thing I was disappointed in was when we picked out our granite we were never given a price, although Tim provided an allowance we went over but never were told what the exact cost of the granite was. Our main disappointment was the tile work, although the guy Tim sub contracted to was very nice he obviously was not real good at tile. We paid extra for our grout (less mildew, better color, last longer). Well the color of the grout is different throughout the shower in the master bath. Tim was told of this and was going to look into this with the person he sent us to that designed the bathroom (Cameron??) Well we still haven't heard. I would not recommend using Tim for tile work if he is still using the same sub. In the hall bath some pieces of tile were cut uneven and it was clearly noticeable and this was pointed out and Tim agreed, a repair was attempted and it is not any better. Also the soap "niche" is uneven and this was pointed out but never fixed. Very disappointed in the overall tile work in the both bath areas, the floors came out OK

Hi, thank you for your feed back, although we plan for every job to go as smooth as possible, not all do, and simply saying this doesn't make it right either. I think I know where things may have derailed, and have already made those corrections within. Please let me know what I can do to make this right for you? Just because we finished and you've paid in full, doesn't mean that I'm complete, that happens when your happy with our workmanship and our company. Thank you.

The work on our extension went extremely well. When a problem did come up, they worked on a resolution and got it worked out. Lance Rittenhouse was wonderful to work with. He was very responsive and was always checking to see if we had questions. We would use Lakewood Home Builders again. We could not be happier with our new laundry area and extended shed.

We are very pleased with the services of Lakewood Home Builders and Tim Johnson. While our project was smaller in scope with several replacement windows and installation of a new bay window, we appreciated the time and extra effort that Tim gave during the planning phase to ensure that we were defining the right project. All this was done before a contract was executed and a deposit paid. The contract very specifically outlined the project, materials to be ordered and construction steps. Communication with Tim was always timely and professional. The replacement windows were done quickly and efficiently with minimal disruption. The actual installation of the bay was completed by Tim. The quality of the finished bay window on the interior and the exterior certainly met our expectations. The attention to detail was greatly appreciated, whether it was the discussion regarding the trim size around the interior of the window or the fact that even the screws for the downspout clamp were not forgotten. Thank you Tim for making this project a pleasant and friendly experience from start to finish. It was such a pleasure to do business with you and we will certainly be repeat customers with future projects.

Due to a storm knocking over a tree and destroying our carport and custom shed we urgently required assistance getting the structures removed and replaced. We had wanted a two car garage in place of the single carport, so this seemed like the right opportunity to take advantage of the situation. After reaching out to multiple contractors for estimates, Lakewood was the last company, despite being one of the first and most professional to provide their estimate. When I reviewed their estimate it was a little more expensive too, so I almost scrapped it following first glance in favor of one of the other companies. That would have been a big mistake. On closer look I realized that despite being a little more, it actually included A LOT more. Lakewood included tree removal, driveway expansion, windows, a garage door opener, a finished interior and more. The other companies, though quicker to provide an estimate and very slightly cheaper, had not included a whole lot of items that Lakewood had. Even when I reached out to the other companies for clarification, they made it clear that their bids did NOT include these things and that they would not even coordinating many of these things for extra money. (Seriously, how do you build the garage without removing a tree thats in the way?) I quickly signed up with Lakewood to proceed and things fell together quickly after that. The project took a few months to complete, but that is realistic considering the scope. They worked with me on what I was wanting, and really helped me out a lot when it came to dealing with insurance and getting the documentation in order. More than anything I would acknowledge their attention to detail set them apart. Even when the project was done they had planted trees and grass in the vacated areas and approached me about different additional options to make the most of the new space. I look forward to working with this team again and highly recommend their services.

Excellent experience from start to finish. We called John and Lance about two years ago to obtain a bid for the project we were contemplating. They spent a considerable amount of time inspecting our existing house and to determine the feasibility and constructability. Their price was more competitive than any other contractor who bid the work and we appreciated their detail-oriented, professional yet friendly style of work. Project was on hold for about a year and a half while we worked out financing - Contractor was patient and very helpful obtaining approvals, and preparing submittals for loan and permits. Project was completed efficiently & within schedule, with effort made to complete before the holidays, which we appreciated. We made several changes during construction, which were handled in stride with no issue. If we did it again, we would've made more of an effort to coordinate and select allowances well in advance - some were unavailable when we selected them just prior to installation. But we were able to find comparable substitutes and the result is fabulous.

Tim Johnson came by and not only did he go up onto the roof to inspect for leaks (there were none), but went into my attic for me and discovered that there was a vent pipe that had been cracked open and that is where the water was coming from. After he discovered that, he talked to my plumber and went up onto the roof again to temporarily close off the pipe as we are expecting snow tomorrow. Since the pipe is cracked open, it will vent temporarily into the attic. He spent quite a bit of time with me and really went over and beyond to help me figure out whom to call to fix the problem. Plus he gave me advice as to what to do to prevent further household damage. I really appreciated the effort on my behalf. He also alerted me to an electrical problem waiting to happen, that he saw in the attic This is a great company to do business with. Thanks so much Tim.

I would recommend Lakewood highly for their professionalism, price and quality. My initial contact with them was made when I purchased an Angie's list coupon toward attic insulation. Mr Tim Johnson of Lakewood and his partner John both responded immediately. Mr Johnson came on site to the house within a couple days of contact and very diligently assessed the attic insulation situation. This is an older house, where there had not been insulation installed since perhaps the time it was built. Thank goodness Mr Johnson was so thorough. I'd been having concerns about effectiveness of bathroom vent fans installed by a prior contractor and when Mr Johnson checked the attic for insulation planning he discovered there was absolutely no venting to the outside.....unbelievably a prior unethical or incompetent contractor had only installed the fans in the ceiling... figuring with an old house and difficult to reach attic that nobody would find the improper install... uintil Mr Johnson found it! He saved me from potential serious damage or mold from unventilated fans. He offered 2 reasonable solutions that allowed me to keep exisiting fans yet add venting in an effective and cost efficient manner. I accepted one of the options and within a few days, he was there to personally made the repairs to the attic venting systems and also to oversee the work of the crew that then could install the insulation. Had he not found and corrected the attic venting issue prior to insulation install, this would have indeed become a serious problem and one that might not be discovered until damage was done - plus might require demo in the attic. I was obviously very appreciative of his diligence. He and his business partner are homebuilders who also do all types of renovation and repair (and he even pointed out to me where a vendor on a current job was making renovation changes that did not comply with code.). Finding and correcting that problem was not in any way connected to the attic & insulation work, but just an example where he has a keen eye and the experience to know both code and see any potential issues. I brought the issue to the attention of the current vendor (and code citation) who then had to concur that their install was not up to code and they made the correction. So - Lakewood (Mr. Johnson) not only did the job for which he was contracted but saved me from potential dangers from prior work that wasn't done appropriately. Please note, he didn't "look" for problems to then fix/bill me for - (ex. he knew he wouldn't benefit from telling me to have the other vendor should re-do some of their work to be up to code and to ensure safety in my home). He is just a knowledgeable, straightforward and dependable individual and his firm's work reflects that integrity. I would recommend Lakewood for any time of repair, renovation or build based on my experience (and comparing them to numerous other contractors I've worked with in maintaining & renovating/repairing an older house)

The serviceman called prior to arriving and arrived on time. He went up on the roof to look for missing tiles and to find the location of a water leak. He was thorough and explained everything so that it was understandable. He was able to locate the source of the leak and provided advice on future needs. I was using an Angie's List coupon and he pointed out the fine print so that I would know exactly what the deal provided. I appreciated this because I had not read the fine print. He was very polite, thorough, and prompt. I would use his company again.

Everything went as expected. I bought a big deal knowing it take quite a bit more, and it did. My plumbing and pipes were old and a mess; as part of this project Lakewood inspected everything and brought in their expert plumber to take care of it. They explained what needed to be done, and showed me the problems and then expertedly (sp?) took care of everything. I got to see the work and it was fantastic. They even switched me over to copper (from PVC) because it was a better fit for this jog. The little things I asked for, as long as it was in scope, they took care of. And they were very communicative through out the entire project on what needed to be done and the schedule. The rest of the remodel went great. They took care of all the needed work, and saw through on everything to completion and made sure all the details were done to my satisfaction before closing out the job. It looks great. I would hire again, and am already in planning with them for my next job.

Hi, we are sorry that you felt the price was too expensive. All building materials have skyrocketed over the last 8 years or so. With the increasing price on oil refining and pricing. Your not alone when you state that are prices are expensive, however we cant absorb rising material cost. We as well as others must pass that cost on to the end user. Our histogram on Angie's list shows that we are competitive in our pricing, we have to be to stay in the running. You weren't clear about where the leaking was still happening, or if it was one of the places I caulked? As I had mentioned then, the two story open kitchen ceiling had a single piece of glass and the water was coming from condensation settling on the glass and running down to start dripping into the surrounding drywall and trim around the skylight. This isn’t an issue that caulk will fix. I did find a small placed above the skylight where caulk was needed and did caulk that. The other places needed much more repairs than the $149.00 purchase covered, such as rotted plywood in the breezeway. As any company needs to be, we have to be profitable on some of the things we do, or we're out of business. Also this repair were done over either late December 2013 or early January 2014 and I didn’t receive any request to re-visit any of this work. If you would like to have be back out to revisit the caulking issue, I’d be happy to do so. Please call me at 703 209 5488 to schedule. Thank you.

i contracted with Lakewood Home Builders Inc, to put a new roof on my Single Family Home. I had two layers of old asphalt shingles on, that they had to tear off and replace, plus one or two roofing boards. Their estimator, Tim, was fantastic and explained everything very clearly. The workmanship and attention to detail was superior. I liked the quality of all the products that were used. When the roofing was complete, Tim returned and took pictures of the completed roof, new ridge vent, and flashing around the chimney, skylight's and all pipping on the roof. I was able to enlarge the picture on his phone and view the professional way everything was installed. I am extremely satisfied and would definitely use them again and recommend them to family, clients and friends. Pat Paulas, Potomac Falls, VA

From the first time my wife and I met with John Stageberg, my wife and I knew we had found the right contractor for the job. To say that the design phase of our remodel was long would be an understatement. However, John was extremely patient with us and very accommodating. He was always there to lend input when needed and never tried to push anything on us. He was also very conscious of our budget concerns and did his very best to keep us within it. I can honestly say that John was the utmost pleasure to work with. He truly made us feel as though we were dealing with a friend rather than just a business person. He is an extremely pleasant-natured gentlemen that we could just as easily see ourselves going out and having a beer with as having him build our dream kitchen. Being a do-it-yourself kind of person, I naturally wanted to try and take on some of the work. In this case, I was in charge of the demolition phase. Unfortunately, at one point, I had a mishap with the ceiling and a true mess was the result. This mishap involved lots of sheet rock and insulation; neither in the places they should be. I contacted John after the incident occurred only to get some advice on how to proceed. I was fully expecting to make the repairs to the ceiling myself. However, when John heard of the incident, he and his construction manager took time out their schedules the next morning to come over and repair the damage to the ceiling. I cannot express how much this was appreciated. This incident was also the first time I was able to meet our construction manager, Lance Rittenhouse. As with John, Lance was another gem to work with. The honesty and integrity of these two gentlemen and the job they do just cannot be expressed enough. Lance was always extremely informative and walked us through every stage of our construction. I wish I could say that our construction went by without issue, but unfortunately there were some bumps along the way. Most of the bumps were minor, a couple were a bit more serious in nature. The more serious of the problems occurred during our cabinet installation and some poor workmanship in that regard. However, rather than diving into the minute details of these issues, I would rather concentrate on how these issues were handled. To me this is how a business is defined. We are all human, nobody is perfect, and in my life I have come to realize that it is a real rarity when a project completes without issue. Forme, it is how the issues that arise are dealt with that makes me want to do business with a company again. EVERY issue that arose during the remodel of our kitchen was handled honestly and with professionalism from both John and Lance. They went out of their way to ensure that everything was to my utmost satisfaction, performing the work themselves if needed. It is this type of dedication to there work and striving for complete satisfaction that sets Lakewood Home Builders apart from the other contractor's in my area. This is why I know exactly who I will be contacting when my next big project comes along. Thank you, John, Lance and the rest of the Lakewood Home Builders team! Until next time...
Description of Work: Complete kitchen renovation on our 1970's ranch home. Work included removal of walls for the what was an enclosed kitchen in order to open the layout up. Exterior wall work was done to replace two large windows with a single smaller one to increase usable space within the kitchen. This included re-framing the exterior wall, installing the new window, and installing new matching siding on the exterior of the home. The kitchen was completely gutted and all new cabinets and granite counter tops were installed. A large island was installed where the sink and dishwasher were moved. This required removal of parts of the subfloor in order to move plumbing. The electric was all rewired including replacing an old florescent light with recessed lighting over the kitchen area and pendant lighting over the island. Stone tile back splashing was installed above all counter top areas within the kitchen. Most of the upstairs flooring (minus bedrooms/bath) was replaced. Engineered hardwood by Armstrong was installed in most areas surrounding the kitchen including the living room, dining room, and a flight of 6 steps. The kitchen area itself had Shaw array vinyl tiles (similar to duraceramic) installed.

[Member Name Removed], Thank you for your kind words. It was a true pleasure getting to know you and [Member Name Removed]. We certainly understand that the planning piece of any project is vital - and getting this as close as possible pays off in the finished product - so this is time well spent and I very much enjoyed our meetings. I look forward to catching up with you both again and look forward to the next project. . .whenever you're ready. Thank again, John

After the initial purchase of the Big Deal, they were very responsive. They came out to discuss the project and gather information for the estimate. They were very knowledgeable. Since that visit, I have not heard anything else from them. I never received the estimate for the work.

Hi, We corresponded last on the 21st of November just prior to Thanksgiving. Please check your inbox as I sent your proposal this morning. Having to get a lead abatement contractor involved to get additional cost did delay things a little. My apologies and feel free to call if you have any questions. 703 209 5488 Thank you and I look forward to hearing from you.
