Hey Yelp! Look no further and just hire this team. I took a chance since the company didn't have…read morereviews at the time and I'm so glad I did. They stuck to a schedule. Had very positive attitudes. Gave me a set price. And frequently sent me updates as the project progressed. They were very easy to get a hold of. And ended up finishing early and under budget (which was reimbursed to me). I had several quotes for replacing the siding and this was one of those rare situations where the cheapest option really was the most amazing option. I got A+ service for less money. I should mention they did siding for my entire home and got a new concrete pad poured in front of the house. I will be hiring them again to paint the property.

This process from beginning to end was much easier than we expected. The design team listened to our wants and needs and worked with us to come up with the perfect design and Natalie was always available to trouble shoot solutions to any concerns. During construction Jeff was exceptional. He kept a safe and clean job site. He carefully guided us through the process and made sure every detail was taken care of and completed to the highest quality. I couldn't recommend them any higher.

Jared is probably the most honest, straightforward, and solid contractors I have ever met. Even…read morethough my current job was too small for him he kindly provided me with a list of smaller contractors to try. I think also it was the second time I had contacted him over the years. The previous time many years ago when he was first starting, and even then his good character and business sense stood out to me. It's probably why I reached out to him again. Growing up as a "cop's daughter" sometimes my second-hand jadedness towards seemingly good character arouses my doubts. But if Jared is not genuine then I don't know who is. My grandfather was a general contractor, and I myself worked for a medium-sized commercial contractor for a short while so I am somewhat familiar with the challenges in organizing the work, including managing subcontractors. Jared's communication and management style is such a breath of fresh air. You just want to get behind his local business and see it continue to grow. Communicating to some of the general contractors in and outside the Corvallis-Albany-Salem area as the pandemic winds down, I now think the safer bet is to go big with Thayer Construction when the time comes. Just get all the jobs and remodeling done at once with him or not at all.

I did not talk to him at all about pricing. I did not tell him how to run his business.

That estimate must then be approved by the property owner before work can begin.

He sent me a very complete list, but apparently the crew did not get it. The crew showed up to repair the chimney and was up on my roof for a good part of the day. Before leaving they told me the job was completed. The insert technician showed up to put the new fire place in an couldn't, because the chimney was NEVER repaired. ‍ When they returned and asked why the job was not done (even though I was told it was) they said they didn't have the materials to do it. Finally, we thought the job was complete. The first winter storm, at the beach, blew the entire top of the chimney. Note, no other neighbors had chimney damage from the storm. For every appointment they have been 1.5 to 2 hours late. GPS gives them a clear idea that it takes 2.5 hours to drive from their business to my home. When I contact them, after they are a half hour late, I'm told they left an hour ago. NOT RELIABLE! I am left feeling very uncertain if the job has been done correctly.

I called the Corvallis Contractor that Sunday (yesterday) around 12:30 PM and I had a return phone call less than three hours later from Nick. He said, "give me the address and I will be right there. " I said, "the property is not in the Corvallis/Albany area, this property is in Salem! " Nick said, "that's no problem, text me the address and I will send you my ETA. " Less than 50 minutes later he was pulling up to save the day. He boarded up all of the broken windows and secured all of the broken doors and units to make sure nobody was going to mess with them for the night. Two hours later Nick delivered paperwork via DocuSign to the property owner outlining his process to work directly with his team and the insurance company. A few signatures and initials later it was signed, sealed and delivered electronically. Nick sent a text saying he had everything he needed and he would be back the next day to start kicking butt on the project. The very next day, Monday to be exact, there were four beautifully wrapped Corvallis Contractor vehicles with eight or nine employees I'm guessing tackling the job, covering holes on roof from the fire, securing up the rest of the doors and windows, getting security fencing to border the property and using some high-tech cameras on tripods that digitally map the damage of each unit. The final result is like using Google Earth only better. In less than 24 hours Nick got more done than I've seen a lot of contractors do in two weeks on projects like these. I know he's a busy guy because I see his trucks working on properties everywhere I go so the fact that he was able to go from the phone call to the handshake to the paperwork in only a few hours on a Sunday says a lot about his commitment to his business and his customers. I tend to write long reviews but it has been a stressful couple of days sorting out everything from this fire. I don't know what I would have done without Nick and his team yesterday and today. Thanks guys!! Time for some much-needed sleep, it's been an exhausting couple of days.

I would not recommend Nick, the Corvallis Contractor for the following reasons:…read morea) When I received his bill, emergency mitigation service call. I had to call him five days after the initial call to remind him of an appointment. b) Nick stated that the emergency was due to a large water spot. There were several small spots next to the bathtub. He brought in two small fans. The spots were dry in 48 hours. c) Nick stated that there was black mold. When his employees removed the fans, they said there was no evidence of mold. e) He stated that damaged subfloor was removed. It was not damaged and his employees put in half a piece of subfloor. The bathroom is a small bathroom - 4' 8" X 8' 7". f) He stated "installed vinyl". He works with subcontractors. I chose a remnant at the carpet store so it would be less expensive. g) He stated "drywall repair to pre-existing hole in sheetrock. I had new vinyl installed in the bathroom two years ago and new baseboard. When his employees installed the 1/2 piece of subfloor, they damaged the sheetrock. h) Nick stated that they touched up paint on the wall. His employees scratched up the paint on the wall when they installed the 1/2 piece of subfloor. Nick is not honest. He charged me at least 100% or more for inferior work.
