We've searched for a long time for a great handyman to help us on projects around the house. We…read morewere so blessed when Brandon of Tarko Pros Home Solutions was recommended to us! We've used his help to work on different issues that come with buying an older house in Texas like retapping, painting and finishing walls, covering the patio, installing different doors and appliances and the list can go on. He will come over, assess and price the project and completion time and that's where your worries end. He doesn't charge for extra trips to stores or other dishonest ways other companies were squeezing every dime to increase your frustrations and bottom line. He is honest, friendly, hard working and efficient - trust me, after endless unfinished projects or poorly executed finding Brandon was a Godsend. I have recommended him to all my family and friends!

We recently hired Tarko Pros to redo the master bath and paint kitchen cabinets for the home we…read morejust purchased and I am glad that we did. Not only were we very happy with the end result but we were impressed how the process itself went pretty smoothly. Brandon, the owner, is very professional and was really great to work with. He is very responsive and kept us informed each step of the way. He initially estimated that the projects would take 2 weeks, and they were able to meet that expected timeline, with even a few days to spare, so we were able to move in early. If we saw something that we weren't 100% satisfied with, he made sure they came back out and fixed it to our liking. I highly recommend Brandon and his team if you are in the market to do some upgrades to your home. Thanks guys!

I waited almost a full year to post this review so that I could wait and write a clear and concise…read morereview that wasn't shaded by disappoint or anger. So here goes: I preface this review by stating that I know that most renovations, if not all, run into snags. Delays, errors, miscommunications happen and is a regular part of the industry. I work in building products myself (14 years now) and have an understanding of the remodeling process. The TLDR of the following is: Do not proceed with 19Squared. The pitch is perfect, but delivery is lacking. Poor communication, poor craftsmanship, at a high cost are what we encountered. I reached out to three other remodeling companies, one I had even used before on a project, before choosing 19Squared. Scott Sefton is a very good salesman in the sense that he can gain your confidence quickly. He said when we first spoke that they are not the cheapest, but they do things right. He only made good on one of those things. I had a feeling things would go south when they showed up one day early than the scheduled date to start the project. From then on, we had to chase them down to get any information on what was happening next, who was doing it, and when were they going to do it. Turns out they only have one guy that they hire to do the bulk of the work post-demo or at least that was the case for us, and that poor dude is clearly spread thin. We were told our itty-bitty kitchen would take 3-4 weeks. It took 4 months. The communication with us as well as between themselves was just really bad and decisions were made that we didn't approve or have a change order for that resulted in more work needing to be done. I can handle a few snafus as long as there is an open line of communication and acknowledgement of the issues reported. Several times we brought up a problem, it was not acknowledged by Scott and he deflected and got defensive. He left his project manager, Joel, in charge of dealing with the issues, but it seemed like communication between Scott and Joel was not any better than their communication with us. Turns out that when you hire 19Squared, you are really hiring Fernandez Remodeling which appears to consist of 2 people. So, if you have two people running several jobs, I can imagine the quality of the work and the speed of the projects will suffer tremendously. At the end of the day, Scott is the salesman who takes your money and then you don't ever really hear from him again. Every time I had to contact him about something he would always say, "Oh we're ahead of schedule." But every time I asked him exactly what that schedule was, he deflected and it was not in the contract. Point is, there isn't a schedule. You are at their mercy, and they have all of your money. Once we discovered all the very expensive hardware we ordered was installed crooked on our cabinets, we had had it. This was AFTER other problems. We took the keypad off the door and sent them notice. From there we let them fix a few things, then gave them the boot. Afterward, we had our plumber come replace the cheap parts installed under the sink that kept leaking and have since finished some of the painting and other things on our own. We also had to get the grout entirely redone because after two attempts to grout the floor, the grout kept coming out discolored and uneven. We had to touch up all the walls and the paint on the cabinets isn't even. There are also blotches in the lower cabinet stain and a lot of drip marks from the clear coat. We discovered recently they installed the storm door upside down and threw out the magnets that were supposed to help keep it stay shut and one of the cabinets now has a crack in it. They have a 1-year workmanship warranty, but there is no way I am letting them touch a thing in my home again. It's a shame that we didn't get the same kind of professional treatment it seems other reviewers did. Presuming the authenticity of the reviews that is. We were led to believe that trades experts would be completing the job, but the result was a very expensive hand-man job and we still aren't done fixing things.

Cade's knowledge and experience with insurance claims helped us navigate all the details and turned a not so great insurance decision into a pretty great outcome. Our roof is very steep and complicated but the large crew was able to finish it in one day. They took everything down to the plywood and replaced several sheets of the old plywood that was rotting. They cleaned up the whole property as if they were never there and the roof looks great. We Highly recommend Vision Roofing.

Saving me a bunch of money. Nick is very responsive and a good communicator. He is very experienced in wide range of skills and project types. Like any project there are challenges as you go, and Nick just took care of them one-by-one quickly and competently. Nick was very thorough he made sure the scope the work included necessary stuff that other tradesmen may have ignored. So when the job was done it was fully complete, solid, up to code and realistically priced. Nick is now my go-to for any work I need done to the house. Highly Recommended!

Since we live in central Plano (i.e. a 1970's house), I've always dreamed of remodeling our kitchen but was worried about the process and how our family would survive without our main gathering/eating/cooking and entertaining area. I've heard lots of horror stories and was certain we would be adding to it after we finally made that step. However, enter Nick and David and their whole crew from GP Homes and Repairs and I can't say enough fabulous things about the entire process. After our dishwasher started leaking and caused quite a bit of damage to cabinets and flooring in our kitchen, we decided that now was the time to do it. From the beginning steps of designing to demo day and finishing ahead of schedule (on Thanksgiving week), Nick and his team had us fixing our turkey dinner in our new kitchen and surrounded by our loved ones. We are big on communication, professionalism, staying within budget, and quality work. I'm happy to say that they exceeded our expectations and check all the boxes. Do yourself a favor and give Nick or David a call/email when you are looking for your next home project needs. Email: info@gphomesandrepairs.com Phone #: (972) 900-6487

I want to start off by saying that I very rarely if ever review anything. But, I was so impressed…read morewith this company, that I felt they deserved a shout out. We needed to have all of our siding replaced and some new doors installed. We got a few bids and while this one was not the lowest (nor the highest) we felt most comfortable moving forward with them. And I am so glad we did! They did a phenomenal job! After all of the work they put in and the attention to detail, the cost was more than justified. They say you get what you pay for.... I believe that we truly did get what we paid for and then some. This company has been absolutely amazing to work with. They are extremely communicative and go above and beyond. Richard, the lead contractor on the job, worked with me on every aspect. He would let me know when people were coming, if they weren't coming (we had some weather delays) and always showed up to get make sure all was going according to plan. He always responded immediately if I had questions/concerns. They even, at our request (and their creativity) were able to also reuse our hardware and fixtures. They painted the items and they looked brand new! I will use them for any house project I have going forward. They do outstanding work!
