Burns Builders has completed numerous projects for me in the past. They have built two retaining…read morewalls in my basement, replaced flooring in my bathroom and fixed my leaking roof for an extremely reasonable price. Burns Builders is currently converting my attic space. While working on this project, the team found a slow carbon monoxide leak from my water heater which was venting out of my chimney. They also discovered that my electrical fuse box was not properly grounded. They have been diligent in ensuring that my house is safe and in compliance with code. This company is not one to take shortcuts. They truly take their time, pay attention to detail and keep the cost at a minimum.

He will tell you the cost and what he will have to do to get the job done right, the first time. I am so sick of other contractors screwing things up and then charging extra to fix the mistake. Burns buildings will not do that to you. His price is set in stone. Not many contractors are like that these days. I would trust nobody else for my next job and you shouldn't either.

User Review By Teresa S…read more Cape Girardeau, MO March 29, 2023 spacer If i could give this business a 0 stars i would. Mr. Bleckler added a walk up entryway to my basement. First, he did not get the proper permits for the job and built it against code. There are so many things wrong with this build but i will highlight the worst. Water leaks in everywhere. The inside now has black mold on the studs. The roof had a dent in it and he was going to bring a full sheet of metal to cover it, was here with it and then left with it. I had a specific door i wanted put on that was $319.00. He put on a $125.00 door and told my daughter-in-law, "oops, i got the wrong door." He had workers that we supposedly learning how to do this and the man was supposed to be an electrician but could not install a 3-way switch without throwing a breaker if the light is on and they use an electrical appliance in the kitchen. He was frequently gone and didn't come when he said he would. He told me steel went up and he needed $800 more for it so i paid him in cash. My d-i-l watched me count in the house and then i took it out to him. Whe he came back he said i only gave him $600. He said i was not paying for labor but it is clearly on his bid. When i asked for receipts, i was not given any. He has insurance but only liability not against his workmanship. I attempted to take him to small claims court but he could not be found to be served. I contacted his insurance company for help in reimbursement and that's when i found out his insurance is only liability. The adjuster cannot reach him. I would not hire him to build a doghouse for me.

Everything you see written from CP is absolutely true. He is a scammer he is horrible I know…read morefirsthand because he installed a fence for me which fell over after one week of being installed it was not done correctly he did not get permits as he was required by law. All the excuses CP wrote were absolutely true I also know firsthand that he takes money from people and doesn't even show up with the materials. There is something in action now that will stop him from cashing checks. Do not absolutely do not give him cash and if he's not willing to give you a receipt if you choose to hire him anyway after reading CP and all of this confirming everything then make sure you get that receipt before handing over any money whatsoever. He thinks he is the Teflon Don and everything is going to roll off him but eventually it will all come to an end and again SCP wrote whatever he responds is just another lie

I first contacted Shawn Belmar of Cape Construction & Roofing on 4/18/23 about replacing the roof…read moreon the 2 story part of our 1- 1/2 story home. He provided a bid the next day via text. I asked for start date. Said it would probably be next week. I informed him via text on 4/27 that the 1 story part of the house was now leaking & asked if he could bring enough shingles & had time to roof the whole house. He measured the additional roof on 4/28 & gave us a bid on 5/1. He said he would be down on Friday, 5/12, to start the job. I texted him on 5/11 to confirm. He said that rain was forecast & they would do it Wednesday, 5/17. He texted me Wednesday morning, stated they had another job to finish but PROMISED to come the next day. At 9:30 on Thursday, 5/18, Shawn texted that the shingles were on the way to our house. I asked if he was too. He answered that he had a doctor's appointment but his guys were on the way. At about 10, an SUV stopped in front of the house. I went out to greet them. No one got out of the vehicle. Instead, they turned & drove away. They came back shortly, & two Mexican guys got out & walked down the driveway next door looking at our roof. Because we didn't have a contract, I asked if they had one. They pretended to understand & speak virtually no English. By then, the semi truck loaded with all our roofing materials & an elevator had arrived, completely blocking the street. The driver wanted to know where to put everything. We had no idea & the 2 employees just got back in their car & drove away. I called Shawn & told him what was going on. He said his employees were headed to another job (no explanation why). I told him to get them back here. He told me where the shingles needed to go, & I told the truck driver. When the employees came back, the driver went over to their vehicle & told them he needed them on the roof to unload the shingles off the elevator as he loaded them from the bottom. They immediately turned around & drove away again. When I called Shawn to tell him what happened, he said his employees told him someone yelled at them. I told him that no one had yelled at them. He called me a liar, said I could find someone else to replace my roof & hung up on me. He failed to answer the phone after that. Thank God that he had required no money up front.

Awesome guy. Did a good job. Already going to book him for another project. Reasonable price.read more
