We needed to replace our cracked and sinking driveway behind our townhome. We chose to work with…read moreDenver Concrete, and we are not disappointed. We had to get approval from the HOA to have this done. DC provided all the documentation we needed, including pictures, and a link for the HOA to ask questions. We asked for a Fri/Sat for the project and they accommodated us. However, the work was pretty much completed on Friday. However, the next day it snowed and the temp dropped below freezing. The DC crew came out and placed warming blankets on top of the driveway. Then they picked them up and placed stakes and caution tape around the driveway to keep people and cars off of it. I was worried about the freezing and snow we had gotten, but Lee assured us that if the driveway should be compromised in any way, he would take care of it. The blankets they put on it left marks, but after a couple of weeks, the crew came out to "finish" the driveway, smoothing out those marks. We were able to walk on the driveway after a week or so, I believe. And now we are parking on it. It did take all of 4 weeks to get to that point, but the driveway looks great, we are no longer worried that someone will trip over the crack, and I'm sure this will help the value of our home. Lee and his crew are great to work with and alleviated all our concerns. As to the cost, we have no idea what cement work costs so we are not able to give an opinion on that matter. We wanted someone who knows what they're doing and are easy to work with, and we found them.

Called twice to get the quote and both time Lee said he'd get it right out to me. Still waiting.read more

Chad was able to schedule the inspection quickly, even though he had a busy week. We met at the…read moretownhouse, he told me what he was going to inspect and he made sure to show me the things I needed to see. I had an inspection deadline the next day, and Chad was able to deliver his report just a few hours after the inspection. Inspection report was impressively delivered via HTML with pdf download as well. During the inspection Chad was focused on doing the job right but was also happy to answer all the questions I had. Would recommend him for your inspection and would be happy to hire him again.

For your own protection, do not use Chad Chadwick at Seven Stars. His neglect cost us over $25,000…read more First, he neglected to see obvious water and paint damage on the wall 10 inches from a sump pump - where there had been a sump pump leak. He took 3 photos of this exact sump pump, but missed the water damage on the wall where he took the photos. This flood caused mold spreading 200 ft. Second, he missed visible mold larger than a golf ball growing behind the stairs. Third, he missed two gaping holes around 2 different external pipes on the exterior sidewall- one pipe he literally took a photo of but didnt notice that all the grouting was gone. This cost us $800 in damage because we had to flood the area to see if this was the source of mold (but the source was in fact the sump pump, with water damage on the wall, that he didnt notice.). The second gaping hole on the exterior pipe allowed a mice infestation - again, grout deterioration and a hole around a pipe that he missed. Last, he has taken zero accountability for any of this neglect, positioning it as "I'm sorry you were dissatisfied with our services." I didnt ask for the $25,000 - I asked only for a service refund and the $800 for the gaping hole. I felt it was a reasonable request and he offered only a refund and to sign a form that I wouldn't sue - because he clearly knew I had a case to sue him. I dont want to sue him, but I do want to protect you from going through the 3 months of agony (thinking we had a fundamental foundation problem) that I went through. For your own peace of mind, please choose someone else!

I initially had a great experience with Jaime Langer and genuinely believe she has strong design…read moreskills. However, my overall experience with her ended in deep disappointment and frustration. If you choose to work with her, do not let her refer you to Hummingbird HRD (Crystal and Brian Mansanares), as that is where everything unraveled. Jaime first helped me after a Christmas morning plumbing disaster, and at the outset, she was fantastic--quick to respond, knowledgeable, and actively engaged in creating thoughtful layouts. Because things seemed to be going well, we also hired her for additional design work in our kitchen and living room. But when she referred us to Hummingbird as the general contractor, she stepped away entirely, leaving us in the hands of an inexperienced team that led to an overpriced, incomplete, and poorly executed renovation. Where Things Went Wrong Jaime and Crystal turned out to be personal friends rather than longtime collaborators, and our home was essentially a "guinea pig project"--a fact Jaime admitted only after things had gone terribly wrong. The staggering lack of professionalism from Hummingbird resulted in months of stress, wasted money, and a home that remains unfinished to this day. After Crystal declared the project "done" (despite glaringly poor workmanship), I asked Jaime to see the state of things herself. She agreed with me that the quality was unacceptable and even apologized for how badly things had turned out. She admitted that Crystal lacked the necessary experience and recognized that we had been unintentionally used as a test project. To make matters worse, she also told me, "Wow, I didn't realize you were so detail-oriented--I would feel exactly the same." As if they thought they could get away with subpar work and I wouldn't notice--truly insulting. Jaime's Final Disappointing Choice To her credit, Jaime convinced Crystal and Brian to attempt to fix their mess, but she ultimately abandoned the project. Despite personally acknowledging all the flaws, she later sent me a completely contradictory statement: "I have every faith in Hummingbird completing the project as promised, and overall, I believe they have done an exceptional job." This project was supposed to take 4-6 weeks starting in March--it was still dragging on in November, at which point I cut ties entirely because it was no longer worth the emotional toll. To this day, our home remains unfinished and cheap-looking, a painful reminder of the stress and financial loss we endured. What We Actually Got for Jaime's Fees After paying her design fees for both the bathroom and kitchen/living room, all we truly received was: * Layout options * A recommendation for Hummingbird (which proved disastrous) * Help selecting a kitchen table and rug Had we gone with a different general contractor, I might be writing a glowing five-star review. Unfortunately, given how this played out, I cannot recommend Jaime Langer at all.

Sometimes we all need another perspective and Jaime is a great design partner. Jaime is well known for her excellent staging work, but also consider her for interior design.
