    Working with general contractor Daniel Woodsum is an unmitigated pleasure! A GC costs more per hour…read morethan a "handyman" but jobs are done more quickly and correctly because of their vast experience. Daniel is a great communicator, translating what you want into an efficient series of steps to accomplish the goal. My wife praises his "economy of movement", marveling how he accomplishes goals. In our 1930s beach cottage we've hung doors, upgraded knob and tube electrical, added circuits for kitchen counters and appliances, modernized gas hookups, and are now removing some of the non-functional elements added over the last century. We unreservedly recommend Daniel, both to this online audience and our friends and neighbors, who are getting their long-overdue to-do lists ready for him. Two thumbs up.

    Needed somebody to come out and check some electrical parts of my house…read moreI had a ring light and an outlet that was a little loose, causing some burning. Daniel and I scheduled a time for him to come out directly in the yelp app. Communication was great. Daniel showed up at 2 PM at the time that we were scheduled. He got straight to work, fix the ring light. We discovered that there was some other issues with the ring light. I also had an electrical outlet that was burning possibly because of a loose connection. He was able to replace the electrical outlet for my family to safely resume using it. Daniel will surely be on my short list of people to call when I need work done around the house.

    We used E&F for a bathroom remodel. They did a fantastic job on a job that was not easy. This…read morebathroom had not been remodeled in over 70 years. Yes, 70 years. Everything needed to be torn down and replaced. The wiring was old. The plumbing was leaking. And the flooring needed to be completely replaced. They produced an estimate. And came in on budget. They gave a time frame. And finished on time. I'm not sure what more you could want in a contractor. We will use them again!

    The Great (+2 stars) ==========…read more * The structural work: Our home is on a great, new, solid foundation (with shear walls), so we feel as safe as we can be in our home for an earthquake! * Our basement is also now more usable. * Drainage: There is now drainage around the foundation and under the basement slab, so we are no longer worried about our basement flooding! * The working crew were very friendly and considerate. The Bad (-1 star): ========== * The electrical subcontractor was quite bad. The electricians didn't install the dryer outlet properly (one conductor came loose before I first used it), most outlets they installed are loose (they give when pushing in a plug), and they installed a used, old (not LED compatible) dimmer for the LED lights they installed. Also, the owner yelled at his team a lot. * The plumbing subcontractor was bad, too. They misdrilled several holes, damaging the interior of the home. They didn't seal around exterior penetrations into the house. They didn't put a cover over the branch of a wye that was no longer needed. They wouldn't do anything about the loss of hot water pressure in a bathroom faucet that occurred after they moved some plumbing around (I ended up having to disconnect and disassemble the hot water valve myself and I found a piece of silicone clogged in there). They over-glued the drain of the laundry supply box making it nearly impossible to remove the cap, and they lost the o-rings on my faucet aerator. The Ugly (-2 stars): ========== * They overlooked details in the plans about where walls and doors should go, and denied responsibility since they weren't in the structural engineer's plans, which they opted to not have updated with the revisions I told them about. This lead to a sewer pipe being installed in an inconvenient location (it went through the foundation, so it can't be moved), a structural wall that was almost built in the wrong place (I caught it while they were digging the footing), and a room that was built with no doorway (they had to cut some framing to make the opening). * The pricing/scope was negligent at best, but I'd put it closer to misleading or deceptive. During the initial visits, they talked about all the things they would do (including putting up framing, drywall, and insulation), and then sent over an estimate that I accepted. I didn't realize until halfway through the project that the estimate didn't include many of the things they talked about (including the framing, drywall, and insulation); those apparently would be part of "Phase 2," not included in the price of the first estimate. I had chosen E&F over another estimate that was less expensive even though it did explicitly contain the "additional" scope. I was also surprised that the electrical and plumbing (most of which was necessary to get them out of the way for the structural work) was billed separately; i.e., an unexpected additional expense. * They chose to rebuild a segment of stairs (rather than just adding two steps at the bottom, per the plans), which ended up having insufficient clearance with an overhang halfway down. They tried to convince me there was no new problem because they built them the same as before (but the run of the new stairs was one inch longer, causing the 4th step down to be 4 inches closer to the overhang) and resisted remedying the issue. They just ended up taking a sawzall to trim the overhang -- a joist -- which I just have to hope doesn't compromise any structural integrity! Further, they didn't even finish the stairs (sand and seal); "Test your staining skills," they said. * They ghosted before Phase 2. As the structural work was reaching completion, we were going back and forth on scope for Phase 2. However, when the structural work was actually completed, they just stopped communicating, left dirt and demo debris they left on our driveway for a month, then disappeared. There were lots of things they removed to get out of the way (like several segments of fence) but didn't put back. I could easily add 3x more issues and details, but this review is already too long.

From the very first day Brian and Mila were able to help my vision come true when it came to transforming my small backyard. Their crew was incredibly efficient, thorough, and considerate. Their job was finished quickly but with quality in mind. Their pricing was reasonable as well. I would highly recommend Geico builders to anyone looking for a contractor for a home renovation/ landscape project.

    It was a pleasure working with Jean and his crew at Geico Builders. After interviewing several…read morefirms, we chose Geico because it was readily evident that they had extensive knowledge, experience and professionalism to carry out our project. Jean was an excellent project manager, very knowledgeable and easy to communicate with. He was on top of every aspect of our remodel and guided us through the whole process. Jean gave excellent advice and creative ideas for our project. We wanted to raise our living room floor and other firms pushed for wood framing. Jean explained that concrete would better support the hardwood flooring we planned. To our amazement, his team installed rebar, poured, and leveled the concrete all in one day. The raised concrete floor was nicely done and we were very happy with it. Their concrete pricing was also very fair. Geico also remodeled our downstairs bathroom and removed a wall between the shower and the sink. The results were fantastic! The finish, fit, and flow were exactly what we envisioned. Special thanks to Jean's crew for their excellent workmanship and attention to detail. They were hard working, conscientious, and thorough. They also cleaned up every night after their work. We highly recommend Geico Builders!

We had wood rot on our exterior siding and fascia, and Brendan was very thorough in assessing the damage and explaining exactly what needed to be done. He showed up on time each day, took his time, and paid close attention to every detail. There was even an unexpected issue when a nail accidentally hit a pipe, but Brendan immediately took responsibility and was quick to fix it. We really appreciated how professionally he handled the situation. The quality of his work is excellent--you can't even tell where the repairs were made! He truly treats your home as if it were his own. He also went above and beyond by giving us helpful home maintenance tips that weren't even related to the siding work. We're very happy with the results and highly recommend Brendan and Your Carpenter Friend to anyone looking for a skilled, honest, and dependable carpenter.

I was also getting bids for some roofing work and I was very appreciative of him bringing it to my attention. Brendan sent a reasonable bid for the work and we set a date for repair. He and Sam arrived on time, got straight to work and did a great job making the repairs. They cleaned up when completed and really did a fabulous job. Would highly recommend them for your carpentry needs.

    I worked with LB Construction for a bathroom remodel and highly recommend them, and our project…read morelead Yovel in particular. My bathroom was very outdated and probably hadn't been updated since the house was constructed in 1960. I met with more than five contractors and from the start, Yovel proved he had experience, a point of view on what would work for us, and an easy going manner. LB's quote was fair and they were upfront about potential change orders or other costs that might come up (not surprising for such an outdated bathroom!). Throughout the project, Yovel kept me updated on progress and sought my opinion when different options were available on how to proceed. In one instance, he came up with a great way to cut the tile so I could avoid paying for a whole extra box. The updates were particularly important for me because I didn't stay at the house during this renovation, because this was my only bathroom. I gave me the peace of mind that everything was under control when I couldn't personally be there to oversee things or give input. The bathroom turned out AMAZING and it's easily my favorite room in the house now. I would happily work with them again on my next home renovation.

David (Liron) Bitcon, the owner was professional, reliable, fair and creative in his problem solving. His team Lourdes (LuLu) and Carlos, project manager, and team members, proved to be hardworking punctual, dependable, and professional as well as excellent at their craft. Whatever they or promised they completed or if a delay, they communicative and kept us informed in a timely. Throughout the project, communication was excellent. They were responsive, respectful, dependable, and were committed to doing things right. Transforming an older home into an elegant, beautiful, modern space takes vision and attention to detail, and they delivered on every front. They handled the challenges that came with an older house thoughtfully and skillfully, while preserving its character and creating a home that feels fresh, functional, and beautifully updated and structurally sound. We always felt that our home was in capable hands, and their workmanship and attention to detail were exceptional.The finished result exceeded our expectations. What was once a 60-year-old house has been transformed into a home we absolutely love! We are incredibly grateful for the care, craftsmanship, and dedication they put into the project. We would recommend this contractor without hesitation to anyone looking for someone trustworthy, talented, and committed to delivering outstanding work. Five stars all the way!
