The destroyed deck was removed, a well built deck was created, and other repairs and clean up were done in a very professional way. Barry was receptive to my questions and suggestions; I would recommend his work. Thank you Barry and crew!

I had Barry and his crew replace my 25 year old roof. They showed up on-time did the work in one…read moreday and came in under what their estimate was. The job was completed perfectly. The cleanup as well. I couldn't find a nail anywhere after a complete roof replacement. These guys also did a remodel on a good friend's home here in Luzerne and one of his homes in Bolton Landing. In both cases the work was beyond what they had expected and the price was lower than what was estimated. You don't find that combination very often. Combine this with the fact that these guys show up when they say they're going to show up and do the job they say they're going to do with professionalism and I think you'll understand that this is a one-of-a-kind company.

I hired Kingdom Builders to come paint the exterior of my home. The owner/founder of Kingdom…read moreBuilders was well organized and polite along with his worker, they completed the job in a timely manner. Before i stumbled upon Kingdom Builders I called many other places for quotes and everyone wanted to charge me an arm and a leg. Until I reached out to Kingdom Builders whom gave me an affordable quote. To say the least I am very satisfied with the outcome of the exterior painting of my home. I highly recommend hiring Kingdom Builders, you will not be disappointed

Project: Remodel or Convert an Attic What a mistake we made…read moreputting our trust in Total Home Solutions of NY, LLC (THS). Never in all of my years of working with contractors have I had such an unfortunate experience. Work began on our house without proper permitting and without a certificate of insurance- both required by law. Work completed did not meet code as determined by both a licensed architect and the local town code enforcement officer. The code officer outlined the steps necessary to make our house a legally inhabitable space, but THS failed to assume full financial responsibility to make it right. We had to pay out of pocket for what is essentially the price of the original contract to fix these issues ourselves. THS has not returned any credit for our substantial out of pocket expenses to bring their work up to code and has not reached out to resolve the issue. It shakes me to the core that people and their companies can sleep at night with this type of behavior. Based on our family's experience I WOULD AVOID THIS BUSINESS UNDER ALL CIRCUMSTANCES.

I would not suggest contracting services with Frederick McPhillips with McPhillips Custom Services…read more Based on how rude and disrespectful he is, I would not recommend him to do work for anyone I know and would not want him working for my family even for a small job. Based on interactions with him, I do not see the value in what he charges for his services and will take my business elsewhere.

I am so happy with McPhillips Custom Services. The quality was outstanding. Every project I have…read morehad them do has turned out great and they are open to my ideas and changes. As a handicapped person, I have had them do several modifications to make my home more accessible; they have even made suggestions I had not thought of. They came in at estimation or checked with me on suggestions for improvement before anything was added to project. When my cleaners came in after the construction, they said it was the cleanest they had ever seen a crew leave it. They even made sure it was picked up and cleaned when they left each night. They are enjoyable to work with.I have worked with many constructions crews over the years and I can say they are best in area.

We hired Rich Home Exteriors to redo the exterior of our home. We had multiple issues throughout…read morethe project. The work being done seemed subpar at best. There did not seem to be any oversight by Rich Home Exteriors to keep track of the work and quality of work being done. Many of the windows that were being wrapped were improperly done and had to be redone, as well as an exterior door and some trim along the garage. We had asked them to remove some existing solid wood soffits along the garage eaves and install ventilation. Initially they simply covered over the existing wood, which did not allow for ventilation. It took a few attempts to get it properly ventilated. The threshold on our new front door was very unstable and flexed every time it was stepped on. We had to mention these issues a number of times before they were remedied. We had a number of other minor issues as well. We chose Rich Home Exteriors because of the positive reviews we had read online. However, our experience was very different from what we had read. We decided to put up an honest review of what our experience was like. It was a very stressful situation for us. We had to continually monitor the work that was being done ourselves.

Thought I had a rotting sliding door sill and needed it replaced. One contractor told me the…read moreentire thing had to be replaced at a cost of $2,000. However, he was not licensed and insured so I wouldn't use him. Called Rich's, who is licensed and insured, and they came by to look at it. There assessment was that the door was fine (and it was), and the rotted wood was just a kick plate. All flashing and seal around the door was fine. Just a couple of dollars to replace the kick plate and all is fine. Plan on using them for some additional repairs. I would highly recommend them.

While this company's concierge service was decorating a local Saratoga house (as they do every…read moreyear) with mostly absent homeowners, one of the staff they employ to do the work was absolutely rude to a neighborhood of year round Saratogian residents. Using a lift crane to decorate their customers home they completely blocked the street for hours and yelled at the residents to "go around the block" and at one point even gave the middle finger to two of us. Rather than say "sorry for the inconvenience and would you mind going around temporarily", they chose to be extremely rude. I find this unacceptable for a company that touts themselves as "local".

Everybody's contractor experience is unique so please read my review with this in mind…read more We moved to Saratoga in 2009 and bought a "problem" home... a Victorian which had been carved into units by owners who had little regard for the integrity of the building. Our goal was to restore it to its original liveability as a single family home. Teakwood has a reputation as expensive and our initial bid, to do everything on a wish list, was pretty high. But they worked with us and a revised bid was significantly lower and we went with them. This bid entailed a clear-eyed distinction between "need to" and "nice to" improvements so we ended up with a price we were happy with. The quality of the work, both by Teakwood carpenters and their subs, is superb. Teakwood has a philosophy of assigning a master carpenter to oversee the job and our guy, Dan Decenzo, could not be better. Josh, the guy who did a number of built-ins, is a master of his craft and we now have benches and bookcases that look like they have been there 130 years like the rest of the structure. We were offered a 1 year satisfaction guarantee and I'm prompted to write because, well over 1 year after the fact, Dan has been back recently to fix a couple minor things. Bottom line, we are really happy with Teakwood and would definitely recommend you bid out your project to them.
