David is very patient. Answered all of my questions, changes in scope of work, and help in finding third parties to do additional work. The bid for my replacing my roof was very competitive. Work is on hold because my tenant may be purchasing the house, but as far as David being a good - honest - fair and hard working person, he gets five stars. I have no doubt that his work, if completed will be excellent. read more

Why Wait Roofing is an awesome roofing company for multiple reasons. A few years ago we contacted…read morethem to give us an estimate for a new roof. We knew we would need to replace the roof back then due to the age (approaching 20 years). We received an estimate but it was mentioned they thought we had pock marks indicating hail damage. Even though we had had a hail adjuster look at the roof a year or two prior, they recommended we contact the insurance company again. And yes - this time when the adjuster looked we had hail damage and qualified for a new roof. Roof replacement took place during one of the heavier outbreaks of COVID-19. Why Wait Roofing was patient with the supply chain issues, our insurance company, and the entire process as we balanced out the roof replacement time schedule to be the least disruptive to the hectic essential worker schedules of multiple family members. Two years later when we needed to change to a new home owner's insurance policy, Why Wait Roofing provided us with copies of the roofing invoices for the new insurance company. Just recently with the wet spring weather, we called and they came to look at our shed (next to the house) to make sure there weren't any shed roofing issues that were possibly the root cause of some puddling in our basement. And did I mention this business is woman-owned? I've definitely referred Why Wait Roofing to my friends and co-workers! it's an awesome roofing company!

I was getting several estimates and wasn't able to meet Jake for our initial consult because of traffic, so he did the consult by phone. He even jumped onto the roof and placed temporary patches up so we wouldn't get any more damage if it rained. This was before we had even hired him. After reviewing the packet he left and speaking to Jake on the phone it was a no brainer to choose Gold Star. Our insurance put up many barriers to discourage our claim for weather damage, and Jake carefully explained the process of submitting (and re-submitting) our claim, what questions to ask, and how to follow-up to get the settlement we were entitled to. It took some time, but the insurance eventually paid for replacing the roof. As soon as it was approved, Gold Star ordered the shingles and had it installed within about 10 days. The Gold Star crew arrived at the crack of dawn, worked all day in the hot sun, and did a beautiful job. The crew was incredibly professional and considerate. They did an amazing job of cleaning up before they left, and I never found a single nail or piece of debris in the yard. I was really worried about this because we have kids and pets that could get hurt stepping on nails. I appreciate their attention to detail and the care they took in protecting my home during the construction process. My new roof looks fantastic, and I have received numerous compliments from my neighbors on the craftsmanship. I highly recommend Gold Star Construction to anyone in need of roofing services. Their professionalism, expertise, and commitment to customer satisfaction are truly unmatched. Don't hesitate to give them a call for all your exterior home construction and roofing needs.

The project was completed within three months in the fall of 2010, you can see our blog of the entire project at http://fletcherremodel.blogspot.com Dave is sticker for details and was meticulous with the subcontractors he hired. He also allowed us to see every invoice, so we knew what exactly we were paying for. In fact, he stayed within our estimated budget. When we were initially getting bids, other contractors came up with estimates as much as 30% higher than Dave. Literally, the project went just about perfectly, and Dave made a lot of good suggestions and had lots of good ideas. There is only one lightswitch design in our bathroom that I would change, that is it. Everyday when I pull up in our driveway, I think to myself, "I can't believe I get to live here." Dave at Imperial Home Improvement is an honest, hardworking, dependable and affordable contractor I would recommed to anyone, regardless of the size of project.

We found Dave / Imperial Home Improvement based off of the first Yelp review - and I have to echo…read moreKatie's thoughts. (I also called 3 of Dave's previous clients as background checks as well before hiring him.) We interviewed several contractors for our remodel of a 1960's kitchen, master bedroom & bath, and main bath, and Dave was the only contractor who looked at the spaces for what they COULD be rather than what they were. It is nerve wracking putting your home in the hands of a stranger, but Dave became anything but a stranger during the process. We texted & emailed & called almost daily, if not more frequently, and I can't say enough about his ability to steer us to make decisions that guided us to spend money where we needed to and skip things that would be a headache in the future. He is one of the most detailed individuals I have ever met, and he caught things I know my husband would have noticed in a couple years and fixed them before we knew about it. We ended up with an amazing kitchen, main bath, and new master suite, with a walk-in closet (that we never imagined!) and amazing bath. All of Dave's subcontractors were professionals and took care of any follow up issues without complaint. As Katie said, you know everything you're going to spend, you see the invoices, and you acknowledge, via email or text or in person purchase, any of your upgrades - we knew what we were spending the entire way. We landed within 2 weeks of our original end date, and some of that was our fault for adding a fireplace into the mix late. We are planning on using Dave / IHI again for a half bath remodel with zero hesitation and I would recommend him to anyone. I never thought we could or would have such a great renovation/contracting experience.

We engaged John last November to do knock down ceilings and paint our entire house after he completed a very nice job on a flooring project the year before. This new project did not go well.

We were taken advantage of including paying for work that was never done and were told it was, hurried work that required rework multiple times, schedule slippage by multiple weeks causing us to incur additional costs and rescheduling subsequent contractors. John discussed making things right, however we were well past the point of allowing for this to continue and paid for a different contractor to finish the remaining rework.

This is the second time I hired Northland Fence, this time for a 6 ft privacy vinyl fence. The…read morecompany offered an incredible special for early birds, which allowed us to make a huge fence. The project cost $15,000. The fence runs around our 3/4 acre, encompassing much of the property. PLAN Maria created a beautiful plan based on information provided online for our property (as well as on her private portal). This enabled us to get the project off the ground before I even purchased the house. We scheduled the first install date one day after my house closing. THE INSTALL The installation is done in three stages. I hired a surveyor to mark the property lines. Northland fence ordered the public utilities to be marked out, and I chose to hire Zone One to mark my irrigation and septic (which turned out to be very useful). Next, a full day was spent installing the posts (the day after I purchased the house). Aaron was the leader of a crew of two, and he and I reviewed the placement of the posts in relation to the original plan. We tweaked the plan, and Aaron was helpful, respectful and very patient as I revised things on the ground during the day. Thank you for that! We were able to respect our neighbor's privacy and increase the gate size to accommodate my UTV for snow-ploughing in winter. FINAL INSTALL The final installation was scheduled for 30 days after the post install, but Northland Fence were able to accommodate us early and install a week after. That was an incredible surprise, and our dogs were delighted! A crew of three arrived: Jesse, Chuck and Bobby, and the guys worked from around 9:00am to 5:00pm to install our huge fence. They began without disturbing me, as I was working. When I came out, they updated me that the fence will be completed in a day. They were quiet and respectful of the neighbors, parking on the side of the property. They did a walk around the fence several times during install to ensure that everything was done right, with a final walk-through the next morning when they came to finish off one small part. This gave me time to do a walk-through also. I didn't find anything wrong. The fence was perfect. DESIGN I'll add that I chose a two tone design, at no extra cost. It turned out gorgeous! WARRANTY 10 year warranty from Northland Fence, and they recommend that we contact them with any questions or problems before we check with our home owner's insurance, should any problem arise. RECOMMENDED.

Our fence was installed yesterday Jan 6th. It looks good, and seems like a quality product. They…read morefulfilled the contract exactly. Just be sure to read and understand the contract before signing. We didn't, and that's on us. The contract stated 2 to 4 week completion for our fence. In our case, Northland came out on Dec 10th and removed our old fencing, set some of the new posts, then left by noon. They returned on Dec 26th to finish the remaining posts. They returned on Jan 6th and installed the fence. All of the crews were polite and respectful. Our project was completed 3 weeks and 6 days after they began. Our problem was that our dog couldn't use the yard and the deer - the reason that we needed the fence - invaded and ate our new $$$ landscaping. There's a reason that a competitor advertises that they use the same crew for the entire process, and get it done in a day or two. If we could go back, we'd have made a different choice.
