If after coming out they decided that they didn't want my business I would've thought the professional thing to do would to just say thanks for the inquiry but this is a project we're not able or willing to do. I've also noticed that it seems when someone gives him a negative review he can't find their information. Just based on his responses if I were a customer considering this company I'd reconsider after looking at his responses doesn't take responsibility for his actions.

***PLEASE READ BEFORE HIRING FREEDOM***We hired Freedom Outdoor Living to expand our back patio and…read morebuild a pergola. While there are aspects of the project that we feel they did a good job with (mainly the pergola), we feel it's important to warn other potential customers of the issues we have experienced working with them. First, this company uses subcontractors, and unfortunately, many times they didn't show up at all to perform the work they were scheduled to do or performed the work incorrectly. This led to significant delays throughout the project and was extremely frustrating. It put us in the position of constantly following up to ensure the work was done and done right. As an example, the concrete steps we asked them to build were initially very narrow and a safety hazard. We asked them to correct that. Our pergola was not built correctly according to the design, and we had to ask them to correct that as well. The railings around the patio were installed incorrectly, and again we had to ask them to correct this. We understood that the stain of the existing patio may never perfectly match the new concrete patio but the colors are not even close. Dominic was our main point of contact with Freedom and was apologetic every time this occurred (which was frequently) and let us know the excuses the subcontractors provided. They did make these corrections, but what I'm not sure Dominic (and Allen) with Freedom understand is that this is absolutely a reflection on their company when they hire subcontractors that either unreliable, incompetent, just "don't care," or all of the above. Unfortunately, they had already stained our concrete steps so when they did fix the prior sloppy work, the stain didn't match the remaining patio. The biggest complaint that we have with them is that once the entire project was complete (in April 2023), within a month the concrete overlay that they had put on our patio to match the extended patio we built (which it never did) started to deteriorate in a section of the patio. (We now know from speaking with others who have knowledge of concrete work that this overlay was not installed correctly from the beginning). We immediately informed them of the issue and 3 months later (after repeated texts) they repaired the section of damaged overlay without restaining. In other words, we had a large white patch of concrete on our brown stained patio for another 2-3 months. Again, after repeated texts and excuses, they finally let us know they would be sending someone out to stain the patched area of concrete. We had asked them to ensure that the patched area matched the remaining concrete and asked them to fix the issue with the entire patio being multiple different shades of stain. To this they asked us to either pay $3800 to correct the poor staining all done on our patio by THEIR contractors or only stain the patched area of concrete for free. We absolutely refuse to pay Freedom more for THEIR work that was not done right to begin with and agreed for them to only stain the patched area (with the expectation that it would, at least, match the existing patio). Of course, it doesn't and looks awful. I included a picture here so you can see how bad this looks. We are now left with a concrete patio that is 4 different shades of brown and is an eyesore. We have texted Allen and Dominic multiple times to ask that they do the right thing and restain our patio so that all of THEIR work is one color. What is very disappointing is they are not even responding to us anymore. There is no sense of wanting to do the right thing for their customer or even taking pride in the work they are doing. It is very disheartening that after trying to be understanding with them throughout all the delays/failures in the project once they got their money they really didn't seem to care. Allan/Dominic/Freedom Outdoor Living, if you are reading this and would like to correct your staining work on our patio and make this right, we would gladly welcome it and be happy to amend this review.

Frias Home Remodeling is, by far, the best remodeling contractor I've ever had the pleasure of…read moreworking with. I would give them 10 stars if I could. This company did a complete remodel of my entire 3000 square foot home which included wall removals, a complete kitchen remodel, a complete remodeling of all the existing bathrooms, the installation of a new powder and a new bathroom, the building of a 600 square foot screened-in covered patio, remodeling of several bedrooms, and more. I can't speak highly enough about their professionalism, construction skills, affordability, and customer service. Every project was completed on-time and with great care. I intend to hire them to do more work in the coming months. Great ownership, great skillmanship, great value.

Brian was very responsive and after I provided him a few more details, he gave me a very reasonable quote. We booked the appointment and he showed up right on time. I thought it was going to be an all day job, but he was done in just a short while. I am pretty picky, so I looked everything over very well and the job was flawless. He even offered to come back if I found any issues that I did not cause. I really like that he stands by his work. There is no doubt that if I have another paint job, I will definitely call Starr Construction. I almost failed to mention, Starr Construction also does just about any kind of job out there from small jobs like painting, replacing windows or a job I asked about was installing an electric fireplace and brick on a bare wall. Based on this experience, I will definitely consider using Starr Construction again.

He is personable, a hard worker and determined to build his business one satisfied customer at a time.

They gave us a very detailed and competitive quote, clearly itemizing everything that needed to be done. They renovated our entire kitchen, adding new cabinets, dishwasher and microwave. They repainted our whole apartment, reran the wiring for our bathroom switches, redid closet doors and changed the bathroom fixtures. There were a number of things that came up at the last minute as the work moved and Luis helped take care of them. For example he took care of all the permits that we needed to get. We changed some things as the work progressed, like adding different accent wall colors and they were very flexible in making that happen. They were also very flexible in doing a bunch of smaller tasks like fixing rods, shelving and hooks, that weren't part of the original contract. Luis was mostly easy to reach on text or phone and kept us well updated. He was also helpful in his suggestions for fixtures and in bringing anything from Home Depot that we did not have the time to go buy. We had one small hicccup where they misplaced our apartment keys. But they changed the locks and made new keys so that was also resolved easily. Overall we were happy with their pricing, quality of work, flexibility as things changed, and getting the work done in a reasonable amount of time. Snigdha and Ashish

After enduring disappointment with two previous contractors, my experience with The Carpenter's Hand was nothing short of remarkable. From the initial conversation with Jeff to the final touches, their professionalism, expertise, and dedication to excellence were evident throughout every step of the process. The Carpenter's Hand not only saved the day but transformed our vision into a reality with meticulous attention to detail and unparalleled craftsmanship. Their team exhibited a level of skill and efficiency that truly set them apart. The quality of their work exceeded our expectations, and the finished result is nothing short of spectacular. Throughout the two weeks, The Carpenter's Hand demonstrated a commitment to open communication and transparent collaboration. They consistently went above and beyond to address any concerns, ensuring that the project progressed smoothly. Their ability to navigate unexpected challenges with grace and expertise was truly commendable. I wholeheartedly recommend The Carpenter's Hand to anyone seeking a reliable, skilled, and professional contractor for their home improvement projects. Their dedication to delivering outstanding results and providing a positive customer experience has undoubtedly earned them my highest praise. I am grateful to have found Jeff and his team of professionals who not only met but exceeded my expectations, turning our house into a home that we can truly be proud of. We will certainly be calling them on our next project. Warning: Be very diligent when looking for a company or someone who calls themselves a contractor in San Antonio. There are many con artists in the area.

The subcontractors they hire for the kitchen granite countertops for this company are aweful!…read more We always tell our friends to steer clear of this company when they mention they're looking to install granite countertops. They are great over the phone(polite, great salespitch), but the work was subpar. I have given up trying to schedule a time for them to come and fix what they didn't do right the first time! I have to now hire another company to fix the work NPLH did. Project manager(hardly showed up,unless we called to point out a problem)did not supervise workers the proper way, this is why work turned out bad. They do not pay attention to detail. Ex.the glue/seal they used for the sink undermount of granite countertop was the wrong type, water leaking through and seeping into our cabinets. Home Depot told me this shouldn't happen if they used right epoxy. Sink shouldnt be leaking after 2 years of having been installed.. Ex.they left the underside of countertop (where it meets up with cabinets) with a gap, wooden trim should have been installed. Careful out there folks! Overall, it was a bad experience working with this company.

What an incredibly fantastic group of people--Stephanie is a Godsend. I have been looking for a…read morenew sectional for nearly a month and have basically gotten the runaround from every dealer I've talked to with regards to the particular styling or fabric that I'm looking for. Stephanie listened to exactly what I was looking for, directed me to the companies that produced similar products, and explained the differences in fabrics to me on an easily understandable level. Her prices were incredible, too! And if you give her a price point, she'll make sure to show you the designers that actually fall in your range. And get this--instead of trying to make a sale immediately and using high-pressure sales tactics, she suggested I go home and buy a cheap leather ottoman from Walmart to see how my cat would react to it and figure out whether or not leather might be an option for my sofa. Not only does she have great connections to companies that produce the furniture I want, she has great ideas on how to decide what will and won't work for me! I haven't purchased a sectional from her yet, but I have no doubt in my mind that she will be the person to help me furnish my home.
