Cautious about which company to use, I was pleased to learn that Lauricella and Sons has been a…read morefamily-owned foundation/shoring business for more than 100 years. They are "old school" and contemporary in their approach to any issues including structural damage, rotten wood, decaying piers and other challenges.

I would not hesitate to use them again with complete confidence.

Dear Y'all, Today I am happy, but a little bit sad too…read more Today David and Dave Lauricella...AKA the Dynamic Duo...are putting the finishing touches to my house renovations. The sad bit is I won't be seeing them every day. They've just finished doing major repairs on my front porch, siding and ceilings. Until they started the repairs (caused by termite and water damage I didn't know I had), my porch had been held up by the hand of God. Then He handed it over to the Dynamic Duo to fix. It was almost a shame to put the siding back on over the studs and insulation because Lauricella and Son are seasoned craftsmen of the highest order. Oh, and my beautiful put-back-together-again, re-beautified front door! I could digress and go on about how delightful David and Dave are, or how they go out of their way to do what you want done, or how I gave them a key to my now beautiful front door when I was out of town, or how I never had to sweep up after them. Honest. Suffice it to say, I am thrilled to bits with their work and work ethic. Cheers, Kathleen Langan

Cautionary Review - Disappointing Experience…read more I hired Ethan to build custom built-in shelves and cabinets. Unfortunately, my experience was very disappointing. After paying a 50% deposit, communication became inconsistent, and nearly three months later, I still hadn't received any proof that materials were purchased or that progress had been made. Ethan provided an estimate and contract promptly and initially said he could start right away. However, after signing, it became difficult to get updates. When he did respond (often after several days), it was usually with another delay or excuse. After about six weeks without progress, I requested my deposit back, and we agreed to extend the deadline by another three weeks. Even then, there was still no clear communication or proof of work. When I ultimately decided to move forward with someone else, his responses were unprofessional. Overall, I would not recommend working with Ethan based on my experience. Communication and follow-through were major issues throughout the process.

ANOTHER CAUTIONARY REVIEW: I tried not to have to write this review but I have to echo literally…read moreeverything in the prior cautionary review and I'm hoping this review prevents someone else from ending up in the same situation we are in. Hired Ethan early September for some bunk beds. He said two weeks. Gave him 50% deposit up front. Nearly three months later and there has been nothing but excuse after excuse as to why he has not completed the job. Blamed us for lack of measurements that were given to him timely. Initially, it was just excuses but after being pressed on updates, Ethan became very unprofessional via text resorting to name calling. We have asked multiple times for progress photos or anything showing work being done, but nothing. We recently agreed to extend the deadline another 3 weeks and lo and behold yet another excuse as to why he can't complete the job. He has yet to provide anything indicating he has started. We have now asked for our deposit back and he has refused. Don't make the same mistake we did and give a deposit up front. Promises will be made but nothing will come to fruition, only excuses. Very disappointed.

I got a schedued work date and requested an estimate via text with Mary Beth. I never received the estimate or an invoice. The communication was via text. A group of workers came and did the work (not including John). John mis remembered the detials of the initial walk through and had to go get more materials. I communicated clearly that I needed hardiboard. Some materials were left at our home after the job. Months later when my HOA was ready to paint my home I was informed that the material put on my home was in fact not hardiboard. I communicated this immediatlely to Mary Beth. She scheduled John to come back out to view the work with our HOA president. John said that the materials left were not from the work he did and disputed with me that the material was in fact hardiboard. I had to get Mary Beth on the phone and use my texts in order for John to admit that it was the incorrect material and they needed to remove it and redo the job. After agreeing to remove the incorrect material in exchange for hardiboard Mary Beth began making excuses about personal issues and scheduling for 2-3 months. She NEVER called me I had to keep reaching back out to them for weeks. It was not until I asked for thier liscense information to file a report with the BBB that Mary Beth informed me that they do NOT have a liscense. That communication finally opened up thier schedule and they came out to redo the work in the following days. John did not apologize or even show his face during this redo. He came and took photos and talked with the workers but never spoke to my husband or I again. Im glad we did not have to file civally to rectify the issue. I would not call this company for a large job for someone inquiring. Not at all again personally.
