    Separated joint.

    I have a small kitchen set with four chairs. Over the years, the joints and supports loosened and the chairs needed to be re-glued. Also, two wooden corner supports fell off, so I brought them with me to be re-attached. Two of the chairs were also missing wooden plugs that cover the two screw holes in the back of the chairs. I could have done the job, but just didn't have the time. I found that Bill's also repairs chairs, and is a local business, so I let a professional do the job. We dropped off the four small chairs, and was told they would be ready in 6 days, which was a Friday. Called on Friday and was told they needed more time. I received a call the following Tuesday saying they were ready to be picked up. We headed back over to hopefully pick up sturdy and safe chairs, without feeling rickety. Boy we we're surprised!! Joints were still loose, some were still separated, the loose corner braces were never re-attached, the new wood plugs were never installed as requested, and one chair wobbles now. Screws were crudely driven in to the base of the seat supports. Only one chair was barely acceptable. The lady apologized, and took all four back to have them looked over again. Apparently, two teenagers repaired the chairs, and not an experienced furniture repair person. What a frustrating experience! We received a call the following day stating that they completed the work and went over all over the chairs. We got the chairs home to find one wobbles now, which means that the chair was not clamped evenly, and is now out of square. Another chair's rear supports have a large gap that wasn't there before. See attached photos. Keep in mind it cost $67 to "repair" EACH of these chairs by a so-called furniture repair specialist. I paid a total of $276 for a lousy job. Totally disappointed! I figured I give them a second chance to make things right, but they blew it. Now I'm stuck with shoddy work because I don't want to deal with more frustration, and be without the chairs again. Don't trust your furniture repairs with this company.

    Proven Contracting LLC based out of Toms River was the perfect choice!…read moreI interviewed 4 roofers, and Corey, the owner, from Proven Contracting was by far the most professional, knowledgeable, and had the best price! I loved that Proven is GAF Master Elite qualified, and in addition is one of just a few roofers in the Master Elite Presidents Club! But the real proof was the quality and excellence of service that was provided during the roof install. The crew showed up on time, tarped the entire work area to catch the torn off roof and nails, and there was a project manager on site the entire time! He kept in touch by text letting me know where in the process they were, and even texted me photos of the progress! Afterwards, he walked me around the entire home showing me the details of what was done. The property was left in pristine condition, not a scrap or nail in sight! I highly recommend Proven for price, professionalism, and most importantly, QUALITY!!

    Can't believe they have all good ratings as that is the reason that I choose to have work done by…read morethis contractor. WHAT A NIGHTMARE!! Not sure what parking lot they get their employees from but they did more damage than the simple job that I hired them to do. I should have posted this back in 2024 (it is currently 2026) when this issue occurred to help you Yelpers but didn't want to impact a legal recourse. The job I hired them to do was to take out a roof ridge vent and replace with regular roofing ridge shingles and install an attic fan, that was all. Did not need 7 employees hanging out on my roof. I had to yell up to them that taking the chimney apart was not included in this work so they bent the aluminum capping back half ass. They did not even replace the ridge vent shingles correctly or enough therefore left exposed nail holes from removing the ridge vent shingles. The photo (see my photos) of this job shows the light of the sky that you can see through one of the holes from the INSIDE of my attic. When complaint was presented to the owner I was told that the holes are too small to let rainwater in!! They also cut the ridge vent shingles right on my existing roof without a cutting board therefore slicing up the existing roofing shingles. The attic fan was the wrong one installed which was a cheaper version. Wouldn't you check the item to insure it was the correct model BEFORE installation?!? Proven contractors also conveniently gave me an additional estimate for $$$$ thousands more to fix the damage that THEY caused. Also owner of this company is very curt and dismissive when approached with the complaint. This company was a never-ending NIGHTMARE so if you hire them you better have knowledge and be the supervisor yourself.
