We contacted J. Stewart, the owner of Terravest Custom Homes, LLC, through Angie's List about…read morebuilding a two car garage before winter (2013/2014). We budgeted $20,000 plus or minus 10 percent for the project, being prepared to pay $18,000 to $22,000 in cash. Mr. Stewart seemed like a nice person when he came to do the estimate, seeming willing to work with us. We told him what our budget was and what exactly we wanted, a simple 24 foot by 24 foot two car garage on a cement slab with a double door, one window, one door, and electricity. We also wanted a quote to install a sidewalk from the garage to the front door. Mr. Stewart told us that he would try to keep costs down and estimated $30 to $40 a square foot for what we wanted, bringing the total to between $17,250 and $23,000 and very close to our budgeted amount. He told us that he could not provide a "final" quote until we had plans drawn up, so he recommended an architect whom we met with the following week. When Mr. Stewart and the architect came to the house, we went through the process again, spelling out exactly where the garage would go, the size, and other details in order for the architect to draw up the plans to submit to the city. He told me that it would cost $600 to $1000 to complete the work and, trusting Mr. Stewart, we decided to go ahead with the plans in order to finish the garage before winter. That was on September 11th, 2013. The architect said that he should be able to finish the plans in a week. A month went by with no word from either Stewart or the architect, so I contacted both and asked what the delay was. The architect said that it was taking longer than expected and that he would go to the city to see if there were any restrictions as well as come back to the house to measure the house, lot, and other things necessary to finish the plans. We finally received the plans on October 17th, 36 days after we were promised they would be done in one week. Winter was quickly approaching and we wanted to get the project going ASAP. With plans in hand, Mr. Stewart scheduled an appointment to come by with his quote on Friday, October 17th, he was about 30 minutes late. As I looked over the quote, I was drawn to the total which was well over $30,000, FAR ABOVE the $30 to $40 a square foot we were quoted ($30,500 divided by 575 square feet comes to over $53 a square foot). I told Mr. Stewart that we could not afford $30,000 and he said "I can suggest some metal building companies", to which we replied "we already have a quote and it is only $6,000 for a metal garage". He quickly left without saying another word nor offering to make things right. I was disappointed by his behavior, making us wait nearly six weeks then coming in over $10,000 (a 50 percent increase over his estimated price) over his original quote, but I am more upset with myself for trusting the man. We now have no garage and we spent $600 we could not afford to have plans drawn for a garage that has never been built. I should have known better than to trust a human being after what we have been through in the last 5 years, but J. Stewart seemed like a nice man with integrity, so I thought he would do the right thing. He did not, so DO NOT BE FOOLED by his friendly demeanor and empty promises. We paid and are still paying for trusting J. Stewart and Terravest Custom Homes, LLC, so we believe you should proceed very cautiously before hiring him for any project, particularly one with tens of thousands of dollars on the line.

I'm posting this review 1 year after my mother's disappointing bathroom remodel experience with…read moreInside Out Remodeling because this contracted job is still costing her money for electrical repair work. She is willing to pay the extra money to get the job done correctly and has peace of mind that her house won't burn down from dangerous electrical wiring. The electrical work in the bathroom (lights, ceiling fan and GFI switch) was faulty and confirmed by another well-established local electrical company to be "the most convoluted way to wire", "way too many wires crammed into the box" and "he got confused and got it [the wiring] all turned around". These were direct quotes from the other electrician. The electrical work wasn't the only disappointment in their work. A job that I was told would take 2 weeks ended up taking almost 2 months and many nights at a local hotel because we didn't have a bathtub or shower for bathing. Mother informed Caleb, the owner, before the job began that we only had one full bath and one half bath and we would need the shower/bath to be usable as soon as possible. We communicated our concerns about some of their work at the beginning of this job only to be ignored and reprimanded by Ryan for being too particular. We felt our opinions were undervalued and brushed off. All we wanted was a decent job for the overinflated bid. The communication was fairly nonexistent after that. The electrical work wasn't the only disappointment. The paint was inferior and thin and didn't cover the drywall very well. My 91-year-old mother had to add a second coat to the walls, and she improved the appearance considerably. I was grateful she didn't fall and hurt herself and ashamed for them that she had to finish the paint job. Because of the lack of communication, the medicine cabinet was not installed to open the way my mother wanted it to be, causing a conflict with the bathroom door when it was open. Other issues included misalignment of the shower handle and faucet with the tub overflow drain (fixed but costing more time and money), cracking the tile while installing the grab bar and never mentioned the cracked tile (fixed but costing more time and money). We found the crack after inspecting the work when he left for the night. Scraped and scratched the grab bar itself (not fixed) as well as the sconce light fixtures (purchased new ones and had to reinstall). They installed a used and bent tub. We have no idea where they located it. It could have been stockpiled from their warehouse since the first one they brought out was totally unacceptable. (not fixed, took $35 off the bill). Inside Out told us it was our responsibility to purchase the sink and toilet and I wish we had purchased the tub also as we would have had the satisfaction of knowing it was new. They did not address the heater register cover until the job was almost completed, telling us that it was our responsibility to buy and install the cover. We were surprised and shocked to learn that the cover was not included with the remodel . After frantically searching Google, I found a cover for the register, ordered and purchased it. It miraculously arrived a few days later, minimizing further delay, only to find Inside Out was unfamiliar with this type of heat register and installed the end caps upside down (fixed but costing more time and money). One year later, I can say that we would NOT recommend Inside Out to anyone that might be unfamiliar with construction. Or frankly, anyone at all. We felt they took advantage of an elderly woman unfamiliar with remodeling work. Ryan lost his trust with us completely when we found he had tossed his drywall mud outside behind the propane tank so as not to be found. Had he asked, we could have shown him where to dispose of it. Again, no communication. The delays in completing this job were frustrating. One day Ryan worked a full day but most other days he worked between 1-5 hours and sometimes didn't show up at all. He wasted so much time on our project by working minimal hours and performing poor quality work that I informed Caleb we didn't want his to return to the house to complete the small details left to do. The time he did spend at her house, he was constantly on his phone running other projects, which took his focus off mother's job. And it showed. I feel Inside Out's remodel job for my mother was poorly devised and in my opinion destroyed the credibility and capability of their work. We were also charged for the roll off dumpster that sat in his company's parking lot to be used for all his other jobs. I would never recommend Inside Out Remodelingto anyone and if someone looking for a contractor mistakenly feels that an overinflated bid can buy good quality work and good integrity, you'll be very disappointed with Inside Out Remodeling.

I highly recommend Inside/Out Remodeling. We hired them…read morethis summer to tear down and rebuild our deck. This was a difficult project due to the size of our old deck, the rotten lumber that needed to be removed, and the limited space in our yard due to landscaping and setbacks. We had to change some plans to be within code, but the guys made these changes with ease I was impressed with both Bryon and Elijah, arriving early, getting right to work, and working through the heat! Some days, the temperature reached 100. Not a pleasant work environment, but they never complained and were always friendly and upbeat. Dustin was also a very hard worker, along with the 4th guy who joined the crew toward the end of the project. We're so thankful we found this company and hired them to do the work. No regrets. Caleb, one of the owners we worked with, was also fantastic. He was easy to get hold of, stopped by to check on things, and talked to us when any issues arouse. The bid we received from him was very detailed, and the materials used were high quality. I was also pleasantly surprised that when I asked for something extra to be added to the project, it was not a problem at all. They said "sure" with a smile and just did it. These guys went beyond what I expected. A great team! I would hire them again for other projects.
