This company was a bit sad. They were responsive to come over, review my shower remodel. I was told I would get a quote back in around a week. That was a bit over a month ago and after multiple emails asking about the quote I get the standard response it will be there shortly. At this point I would not hire them regardless of their quote. No faith in their committment to their clients.

Thank you for considering Tony Trapp Remodeling for your project. This summer has been especially busy for us and we have at times been unable to produce estimates promptly. We apologize for this and want you to know that we have improved our internal training and processes to facilitate prompt estimates.

Like any kitchen remodel it was pretty crazy, and we were confused as to what was happening in what order, but Tony sent in an awesome painter (who helped us destroy three ancient layers of wallpaper!), friendly floor and cabinet guys, and practically had to be our therapist when we were freaking out. He and his design consultant gave us limited options to choose from, and that was great for us, because we needed guidance! Now we have a kitchen that looks up to date instead of battle-scarred old cave. We would definitely hire Tony again.
Description of Work: We needed our kitchen redone but had a tight budget. Tony worked with us to find a solution: reface the sturdy cupboards, add some drawer options, choose reasonably priced flooring and countertop.

I would highly recommend Tony. He and his staff are very professional, punctual and work to get the things done time and on budget. He won't be the cheapest bid that you get, but I think his price is fair for the quality of work that is performed. He and his staff handled all of our subcontractors for the kitchen remodel and energy efficiency improvements. We love our new kitchen and the improvements that made our home more efficient and comfortable to live in. In short, I don't think you could find a more trustworthy, honest, professional and talented contractor in the Madison area. We wouldn't hesitate to use Tony again for projects in our home.
Description of Work: Tony has done several projects for us--installing solatubes, a major kitchen remodel and energy improvements in our home.

I bought another house and needed some more work done. I wanted a light fixture changed and a vent and a light from the bathroom wired through the roof. He wanted $3,000 for that work. I found someone else to help me and it was only $200.

We provided the customer with a fixed priced written contract that had 7 different items they could choose from ranging $100 to $4,300 if all items were selected. The contract was hand delivered the next day after seeing the job in person in July 2012 due to the customers tight timeline. We are happy to hear the customer found a solution that worked better for their budget and sorry they have a negative view of our company based solely on price. We track all job cost histories closely and provide the same pricing to all customers regardless of the time of year so we can stay competitive and accurate with our contracts and pricing. This allows us to provide fixed price contracts so customers can know the total cost at the beginning and not have surprises at the end.

Chris and Aaron worked magic on our basement bathroom remodel, and all the sub-contractors were excellent. Paul was very creative in thinking about how to design the job in such a small space with many constraints. Then Chris and Aaron made it all come together, making revisions as needed. Everyone was kind, considerate and professional, with no detail too small for their attention. We highly recommend Tony Trapp.

Everything went extremely smoothly. Paul was a pleasure to deal with and thoughtful about how to approach the problem of getting to the leak (as well as with other projects we discussed but haven't hired anyone to do yet). The work was done carefully, without any damage to the siding.
Description of Work: We needed to get access to a plumbing leak by going in from the outside of the house. They removed a small portion of siding and other material to get to the pipes and then put in insulation and put back the siding.

He is known for very good work. I personally have not used his services yet. But he was thorough and he responded quickly when I asked for an estimate. He is very expensive. He came to do the estimate. He has perfect in terms of professionalism. I decided not to go ahead with the project. But I thought he would have been very good to work with. He was perfect and wonderful. He was very prompt and professional.

Tony Trapp did a variety of excellent work on my old home - windows, counters, sinks. The work was excellent, especially considering it was on an older home. The counters were odd shapes and put in without a fuss. The storm windows were a recommendation from Paul and something I hadn't considered when considering how to deal with my old home's windows. The new storms let me keep the old beautiful woodwork while still upgrading the house's energy efficiency and appearance. Communication with Paul was profesional and straightforward - email and phone calls were answered quickly.
Description of Work: Replaced a kitchen counter and sink, replaced a bathroom counter and sink, replaced all of my old storm windows with high efficiency storm windows, and repaired the weights and sash cords in nearly all house windows.

First, I must say it is a pleasure to do business with a company that actually answers their phones calls and reliably shows up for an appointment as promised. Secondly, I was impressed with the advice I was given and the honesty with which it was given. I thought I had an issue with some wood around my front door, but was told that some caulk would most likely solve my problem for the foreseeable future. At this moment in time, I did not require any further services from this company, but will definitely use them in the future for whatever may arise, and highly recommend giving them a chance to help you out. It has been my experience as of late that many businesses are lacking customer service skills and any integrity, but Tony Trapp and his co-workers seems to have both.

Tony was very responsive in getting a bid to me immediately. He had one of his handymen come and do some minor repairs in my home. He was excellent and on time.
Description of Work: I asked for an estimate on remodeling a bathroom approximately 6'x10'. I wanted a new counter top,replacement of handles on the vanity, sink, faucet, toilet and caulking between the tiles in the shower. I also wanted the vanity raised three inches with a new tile floor put in (approximately 10 tiles 12" in size).

Response from Tony Trapp Remodeling LLC
We have tried to contact this client multiple times and have no response. Our detailed contract for the bathroom remodel included a rough timeline, all materials, subcontractors, permits and labor. The scope of work requested by the client at the time of walk-through was reflected carefully in the contract and is more extensive then the scope listed in the review. Allowances for materials were clearly broken out and clearly stated that they were included in the total contract price. The client’s interpretations of our labor costs, scope of work and time line are very misleading and incomplete. I believe if we had been giving the opportunity to review the contract with the client it would addressed their concerns. We would be happy to meet with this client if they would call us back.

Tony and his team were very professional and responsive. We had severe water damage to some of our bathroom drywall so had a partial bath remodel. I was always impressed with their knowledge and the comprehensive approach they took toward the remodel (e.g., addressing the venting in the bathroom to reduce problems in the future). When issues did arise, they always took responsibility for making sure it was fixed to our satisfaction. The cost was more than other estimates I had received, but I felt it was worth it for the expert advice and wonderful customer service.

.There was some communication error before the work could get started but once we got over this, everything else was okay. We were impressed with the excellent job done. Those who did a similar job on their house said the cost was good. I will not hesitate to recommend Tony Trapp to any other person

Made useful suggestions for me in terms of types of finishes etc. The door frame needed rebuilding as well. The results are perfect. Looks great and does not leak cold air like the last door did. They even took the extra step of getting the key to our front door so the back door key could be matched with the front.

We contacted Tony based on the very high recommendations of a neighbor. He came over to the house on April 21 to look at our problem and said he would be in touch with an estimate in a couple of weeks. We never heard from him and after two months, I called Tony to see what had happened. He indicated that he had gotten busy and some of his contractors/employees had sufferred serious health issues. He said we could wait to see if we heard from him or try someone else. We went in another direction. As far as I can tell, Tony is a good guy with a company that does good work but who has let his business get out of control. Even so, I expected a lot more professionalism and the communication was terrible.
Description of Work: No services were performed because Tony didn't follow through.

Response from Tony Trapp Remodeling LLC
I’m sorry that I was unable to completely follow through on this job. Had I realized how long it would take us to catch up after our key employee had to leave, I would have told you we couldn’t do your job right away. I’m also sorry to the people who referred me to you, not only did we lose your trust but theirs as well. We have worked very hard to earn our customers trust and build a reputable company the past 9 years; this has been the most challenging season by far. I take responsibility for this situation and I have made significant changes to help spread the job load throughout out the company more evenly. I do not want to make excuses but the member is correct, we suddenly lost our 1 and only full time lead carpenter at the start of a very busy season. He had to completely quit with less than 2 weeks’ notice so he could start chemo therapy to treat cancer. It took longer than I had anticipated finding, hiring and training two more full time carpenters to replace him so we could keep up with the jobs that we had scheduled. This all happened shortly after I looked at your job and I was overwhelmed getting thing back on track. We now have a project manager which has helped and have been working very hard at staying on schedule while still offering high quality work with great customer service.
It went great. Tony was very informative about what the work we needed would entail. His carpenter made several excellant suggestions including closing up the area above the bay window and filling it with insulation, which makes our living room much warmer and we would have never thought of. Most of the cost of the project was for the actual door and window so the labor charge was very reasonable.
Description of Work: Various projects on the exterior of the house to prepare it for painting including, re-skinning a big bay window and adding insulation which it didn't have. Repair work on the wood surrounding the garage door. And other repair around the windows. Installing a new front door with sidelights and a new window.

The part of the project they took care of was done promptly. I was very impressed with the quality of the work and plan to use them to repair similar type of work in the future.
Description of Work: Tony Trapp Repairs, LLC was recommended for a Insulating Project by the Contactor I had contacted. Several Ceiling fixtures had to be replaced with new ones that had protective housings that could have insulation blown around them. They repaired damaged drywall and prepared it for painting. Damage caused was necessitated by replacement of old ceiling fixtures with new ones and filling opennings vacated by fixtures that were not replace. Two bathrooms and two halls had the recessed fixtures. Lights and exhaust fans. I plan to use them again and have recommended them to my friends and neighbors.
