We have repeatedly contracted Oikos for all variety of projects from minor furniture repairs, to…read moreelectrical, to crafting a new fireplace mantel. There is a slight premium on the cost, but it's well worth the peace of mind that comes with quality work and professionalism. If they don't think a project item can be done to the quality they promise they don't bid on it. As a bonus, the painter they subcontract bigger paint projects to is better than dedicated painting companies we've hired in the past.

Dimitrios filled in all the holes and was very accommodating with making sure to go back and address a few that were initially missed. He redid all the dirty caulk as well.

I hired Capital Pro Services and Scott Tripp provided a quality product and superior process. I did…read morereceive many bids to replace the roof and Capital was not the lowest or highest, but they provided a better product and construction process along with taking the time to sit down with me and walk through every detail. Their crew completed the work on time and, because I can climb on the roof myself, they provide pics for each step. Scott followed up by walking the job when completed and actually climbing the roof also. His pictures showed me the detail that makes up the quality install. Quality workmanship, good and easy agreement processes, many options to choose from along with all of the team members having a congenial disposition made this a 5 star job and company.

I have an infinitely positive amount of things to say about Azeez and his crew…read more We needed emergency repairs after our kitchen ceiling fell in and Azeez was able to diagnose the root cause of the leak over the phone. We live in an older home, and even though the crew encountered numerous obstacles/uncovered multiple problems while doing the repair (bad wiring/pvc pipes not glued together/toilets incorrectly installed), they didn't up their labor charge. The only thing that increased was material costs, which we were warned of in advance. The crew was courteous, punctual and professional. Azeez was so easy to communicate with and kept us up to date on schedules and timelines. The ceiling looks better than it did before, and we literally sleep better at night knowing all of our plumbing has been professionally repaired. This old house needs a lot of work, and we'll be contacting BJGE for most of it.

I considered at Rent-A-Pro when I was looking to have some work done around the house before…read morehosting my family for Thanksgiving. Unfortunately, I did not have a good experience with Ted and would not recommend him due to his lack of professionalism. First of all, we had to reschedule my walk through 4 different times. This should have been my first clue to move on with other handymen I researched, but I tried to give Ted a chance. He actually offered to do my walk through free of charge because of the scheduling issues, so I moved forward with it. After the walk through, I was issued an estimate, which was reasonably priced. I decided that I would hire a smaller, independent contractor to some immediate small projects around the house before my family arrived (hang a ceiling fan, mirror, and flood light), and hire Ted and his company to complete larger projects once I had some more money saved (build out a few closets, hang some cabinets, repair a porch roof, and repair some doors). When I thanked him for the estimate and told him of my plans, he went off, and my experience quickly took a nosedive. He rambled on and on about how I wasted his time (even though I explicitly told him I would hire him at a later date for the larger projects) and then he made a biased statement that was offensive and unprofessional about working with customers in Southeast D.C. When I mentioned to him that I thought his comment was racially and social-economically charged and wasn't appreciated, he flipped out. I told him I would share an honest review of my experience, including his racially charged comment, and he threatened legal action against me, which isn't even possible. This was all such an unfortunate experience, but I appreciate him showing me who he was. If you are a person of color, ally, or someone who cares about how the people you hire treat others, I would not bother working with him and his company. If he will speak this way to a customer's face, I can only imagine how he speaks in private. Spend your money where you are celebrated not tolerated!

Unfortunately the owner Ted has misled the public and was dishonest in his comment to my first…read morereview. In his own words, he lied when he misstated that I spoke to his staff and that I demanded and "basically telling us to not even bother", which are false statements. Ted cannot produce any phone record documentation that a conversation ever took place. He may claim he called me, but Ted nor his staff have never actually spoken to me. Attached is a screen print image of the owner's comments where he referred to me as "he" and "his". If Ted or his staff actually spoke to me, then they would know that I am obviously a woman. Documented proof that the owner of this company has lied about the actual situation. Unbelievable the lies that this owner will claim. Fact is all correspondence was via documented emails directly with the owner. I have attached my original email to this updated review and the public will see that I was consistently courteous and even stated "Thank you" twice to him. The only reason that prompted the owner Ted to apologize was when he saw that I wrote a negative review revealing his scathing remarks to me. This obviously was not sincere because he waited a week after the incident and was scared that I exposed his true colors. He claimed to "apologize" for being rude and crass to me; however it was not genuine because exactly three days later on March 8th the owner attacks and blames me for his temper tantrum on his comments to my first review. Simply appalling. It is unfortunate because I only kindly declined to his bid (see original review with email correspondences). It is apparent to readers that Ted will vilify anyone that has a bad experience with him or his company. I encourage readers to review all of Ted's comments to the other customers that gave him a bad review. He accuses his customers of all the wrong doing. This owner does not take criticism as a learning experience nor does he take responsibility nor fault. He was even condescending to the reviewer that gave him a three-star review. It is obvious to all readers that in Ted's own words, that he continues to view that his customers are beneath him. In his own comment to me, "I should have over looked your email and moved on", validates this. Overall just a horrid experience from my interactions with the owner. Responding rudely to your customer base is wrong, but lying about the situation is setting an all time low.

I called and spoke to several contractors and I'm glad we went with Vaibhav and his team. Vaibhav was very attentive to our needs and advised us through every step. As first time home owners, he offered us peace of mind making sure we made the right decisions for our particular property. His level of professionalism from our first consultation to the very end of the project was top notch. He was available around the clock and responded to questions immediately. What I really loved about working with Vaibhav was that he practices what he preaches. He said, "the project isn't done until the client is 100% happy with the results." If something was not done to our satisfaction, he and his team would fix it immediately, without any hesitation. He truly cares about his clients and wants to make sure they are 100% happy with the results. I will definitely be using Vaibhav and his team again for my next project.

Since moving to the East Coast three years ago I have found there are two types of Handyman…read moreservices. The first bids what they think you want to hear and then raises the price once they are underway. They also seldom finish when they say they will, by the way. The second type bids and charges exactly what they said. They come when they say and the finish on time. GH Contractors and Handyman is the second. They come when they say they are going to be there. They charge exactly what they told you up front (and one time actually less). The work is high quality and the team is friendly. We've had them do three different jobs around the house and in each case they have done an exceptional job. Other than the fact that we knew they had been there you wouldn't be able to tell they had been there. No mess, Exceptional Service. These are the handymen you need to call. Honest, good prices and they do a great job every single time!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

We contacted Enhanced Roofing to have some drywall and siding work done, and have been very pleased with the service provided. Their office has been very communicative regarding estimates and scheduling. The crew of guys that came out to do repairs today was professional and expedient. I wish I had taken more "before photos" to show the full scope of work done, but we had a hole from dog door in our living room to the outdoors completely filled in and re-sided. Our siding is older so they weren't able to find a complete match, but it's pretty darn close and we're very happy with the work. We also had drywall/ceiling repaired around a new electrical panel we recently had installed and some outdoor siding repair done to a hole left by an old electrical box. Now I can't wait to get the painters out next week! We are so happy with the progress on our home.

I purchased $2.7M home from Enhanced Homes (EH) in August 2024. After 15 months, workmanship has…read moreproven to meet only minimum building code, leaving me with major post-purchase costs. I've spent thousands of hours and ~400% more money completing unfinished or omitted items a reasonable $2.7M home buyer expects. Sod Grass Failure from Hidden Construction Debris ~$20 K +13 weeks During construction I saw EH's landscaper laying sod on clay mixed with construction debris--concrete, nails, pipe, glass, and rocks. Despite immediate notice, EH refused to fix. The grass looked fine through a mild spring but died once summer heat baked the debris. Seven lawn specialists confirmed roots burned by heated concrete and lack of soil depth. Correct replacement required removing debris, adding topsoil, and resodding (~$20K). EH dismisses this as "not a warranty item" and claims "it passed county inspection" and "looked green for ten months." True but irrelevant, inspection only verifies appearance that day; the root system was doomed from the start. Wet Bar $6K+4weeks Original plans included a wet bar near the dining room. EH refused, saying installing it required moving a nearby HVAC grill, a task requiring minimal effort. After closing, we resolved the grill at no cost but paid $5,714 and 4 weeks of work to add the wet bar ourselves. Frozen Pipes & Ineffective Insulation $5K+4 weeks The Finished Room Over Garage (FROG) stayed 49F last winter because garage ceiling was poorly insulated. EH declined to pay extra ~$963 for adequate foam during construction. We paid $5,124 to remedy. The uninsulated FROG toilet drain froze. EH initially refused to fix it for $200, then relented after weeks of debate. FROG bathtub base had no insulation or plywood wall, exposed directly to winter air via soffit vents. Electrical $3K+2 weeks Every light switch was on/off. We spent $3,521 and much time installing smart dimmers EH could have added for extra $963. Another case of EH cost cutting during construction that costs buyers ~300% + time later. Internet Cables 2 weeks Ethernet cables were left unterminated without RJ45 ends, preventing internet access until we paid technician to add connectors. The structured-media enclosure wiring box was incomplete; we paid to fix it. EH would not do either item. The underground conduit meant to protect the buried internet line to the utility pole was never installed. When asked, EH owner Ryan Fubini said, "I offered a guy cash to install conduit, but he wasn't interested." Predictably the unprotected cable was later cut by a landscaper, damage conduit would have prevented Builder Response Rather than fix issues Mr. Fubini responded by warning of "legal consequences" for posting reviews and sent an inaccurate, unprofessional message to my wife, which she pointedly refuted. Virginia's anti-S-L-APP laws protect truthful consumer reviews and allow recovery of costs if sued. I've been copied on emails from other EH buyers to Fubini reporting similar concerns, yet Fubini continues to claims I'm his only dissatisfied owner. EH cites many five-star ratings, but they are for small remodel jobs, not full new-home builds. Initially I gave testimonial to buyer who bought $2.5M EH home; Fubini never thanked me Summary Tradespeople who built our house appear to be skilled, by lack formal oversight, project management and quality control. EH leadership prioritized speed and cost-cutting over reasonable finishes, quality checks, problem-solving, and warranty. Every problem follows the same pattern: EH spent the minimum to pass inspection, deny responsibility afterward. EH's constant defense: "it passed Arlington County inspection" misses the point. Passing inspection only meets minimum legal standards at that moment. A luxury builder should exceed them, not hide behind them For anyone considering EH, hire rigorous inspector to check sq ft, structural, mechanical, insulation, finishes, and soil quality before closing. Our house looked impressive at closing, but EH's minimal-standard approach created major costs for us later

Upon a request I was amazed on how quickly they replied and how detailed and friendly they were.

They provided me with a 3D drawing of how my new cabinets and counter top would look like, which made it so much easier to visualize. Their quote was very detailed. I loved how much information they gave me how many choices I had to chose from. Made things a lot easier for us. We went ahead and decided to use Premiere Home and on the day of the job they showed up on time and they were friendly and courteous. I had new cabinets installed, new tile floor, new stone counter top and also back splash. I love the way my kitchen turned out and I'm glad I went with them.
