Currently in the process of getting estimates. Tommy and Russ came over for a free consultation. They arrived on time and prepared. Both of them were really easy to talk to, knowledgeable in their own expertise, they had some awesome ideas and gave a lot of context to what was possible and impossible. Definitely recommend you meet up with them for a free consultation if you're considering any type of home renovation big or small. Note: I'll update this review should I end up working with them.

I was supposed to get a call back and never did. I called again to schedule, they said I would get a 30 minute heads up phone call, I never got that and someone showed up 2.5 hours after the scheduled time window. I had to turn them away. there was no communication for an apology or even to reschedule. I now have a different company scheduled to come out. And someone from "world class" just showed up this morning completely unannounced. The guys coming out do not look professional in even the slightest. Dealing with this company has been so uncomfortable and a complete nightmare. Our property management company has used them as a vendor many times before and have said they continue to get many complaints about them as well.

World Class Construction is like a magical wand for homes. They took my run down house purchase and…read moreturned it into something extraordinary. From planning to the final touches, they were amazing. so easy to work with and listened to my ideas. They made everything crystal clear. No confusion at all which I've had with a few other companies in the area. Their carpenters, painters, and electricians worked wonders. Crown molding, custom cabinets, and flawless paint. They even removed the popcorn ceiling throughout the entire house. They used the best materials, vinyl floors, marble countertops, and replaced my screens. There were no delays and the owner Joe had made sure his employees stuck to the schedule like pros. They have respectful and even funny workers at times who kept things tidy and neat so I could move in during the process. In short, if you want your dream home, go with World Class Construction. They're the real deal.

Five Star Posted Just a horrible experience. Please look at…read morethe 1 and 2 star reviews. The vast majority of those other experiences align VERY closely with mine. Read those reviews before you decide on Five Star. I wish I had. On to the horror story... I wanted both powered fans (I already owned these) and also ridge vent in case of a power outage. They installed the fans but no ridge vent. They also didn't refund me or my insurance when they hauled off all that unused ridge vent. The fans aren't even installed properly because they're partially covered by plywood and 2x4s. Why would they even install it there? See picture. They pounded the drip edge on so hard that it dented the fascia and left a black spot. They left tire marks in my driveway and nails that I'm still picking up 3 months later. They screwed up my kitchen lights by dropping stuff into my attic and damaging the cans. See picture. On about May 7 (only a couple days after installation), I called to tell Robert about these issues and he said he'd have it fixed. He didn't. On May 17, I texted Robert for a wind mitigation recommendation AND I thought it would jog his memory about the driveway and drip edge. No response. Five Star called demanding payment and I said the job wasn't done. She told me she'd get someone on it. She didn't. Time passed and some snotty rude manager named Justin Ely called demanding payment a week or so later. I said the job wasn't done. He must have contacted Robert for details because a FULL MONTH LATER, Robert finally responded to that May 17 text on June 18. We'll get there soon. After listening to Justinand his condescending nonsense, I wanted to be done with these people and their incompetence, poor communication, awful follow-up, horrendous accounting, greedy attitude, the damage, and simple misunderstandings being blown completely out of proportion. To avoid Justin, I told Robert in the attached text that I was very unhappy and offered to handle everything myself if he'd just take off $1500 from this $30,000 insurance job that was obviously inflated. I have 3 out of pocket quotes that range from $16-$24k. This message was sent at about noon. Robert didn't respond at all. I called the next morning at about 10AM. No answer. 8 or 9 hours later, he had still not responded and I called the office. When Robert finally called back, he informed me that they double charged me for permits and extra decking. So they're demanding payment with snotty Justin and they don't even have their numbers right. Robert said he shared my text and then got Justin in on a 3 way call. I told Justin I was disgusted with all of this and mentioned the $1500 to just be done, give a good review, and I'd pay immediately. He got all upset, accused me of extortion, and threatened to sue me if I withheld payment. Justin told me his only goal is to make money. He asked if I ever give up any of my commissions and laughed when I said it's only happened twice in 25 years, but I will absolutely do right by my client even if it costs me money. Customer satisfaction is so much more important than mine. He then told me he'd also sue me if I told my neighbor about this. My neighbor signed up for a $30K roof on my recommendation. Seems like a good reason to try to make a me happy! On top of that, I'm also a Realtor who gets asked for contractor recommendations VERY routinely. If my roofer hadn't retired, I wouldn't have been calling Five Star. Now, I just remind the other 397 Realtors at my office that they should not be recommending or using Five Star. In the end, I got excuses and a $100 wind mitigation report out of them. They got a bunch of free material for another job. And I had to repair my own drip edge, fascia, lights, fans, and driveway. I'm so glad to be done with Justin's rollercoaster of incompetence and foul language. Until Justin got involved (after the text I posted), it was completely salvageable and polite. He's the problem. Despicable all around.

Original review dated dated August 28, 2014 The quality of…read morebuilt home is lacking. Not custom when the builder does not ask about the details or promises one thing but does not deliver. The initial construction seemed very good but then there was no coordination of the subcontractors. The builder had a hard time remembering his different projects. Comments like "we will give you the good people today" when noticed things not done well and "oh, they did not do that?" when asked about a detail that was discussed but not done. I wanted all "good people" every day for everything! The electrical seems to be the worse. Subcontractors with "promised" help after built do not call back after many calls. My family has had to call our own subcontractors to fix the horrible work done by the builder's subcontractors. Only 1 year in the house with some steps crumbling, replaced many breakers since waking up to no power to parts of the house, and brown streaks coming from the gutters. All this after asking for repairs before even moving in. My family did not build on Davis Island (when asked where the builder was - "building his Davis Island homes") so I guess we got the "bad people". When the builder's wife writes reviews, think twice about the quality you're going to get. **Update* The homeowner and the builder have resolved their disagreements from the review dated August 28, 2014.
