I am in the market for a contractor and based on great reviews on Yelp, I phoned Purdy…read moreConstruction. I first phoned them and left a message for Susan. A couple of days passed and I had yet to receive a call back. After not hearing back from them, I phoned them again, and this time got the contractors phone instead of the office phone. There was a pleasant message telling me to phone the office if I wanted to schedule a quote. I then phoned the office and left another message. This time I got a phone call back from Susan. I was told that Jaime (the contractor) was all booked up until September, and I said that fine as there isn't a rush on the job. She began asking me if I wanted to schedule an appointment for a quote, but then she back peddled and said, "Can you call back in September?" I was really taken aback by this, and told her this seemed to be a repeat of a review that I read on a social media site. If you're in the market for a contractor in the Sacramento area from July 2014 - September 2014, DON'T call this contractor as he is all booked up and wont give you the time of day! Response to comment from business owner; Thank you for your response to my review of your business. Please allow me to reiterate some of my review and more clearly state my thoughts about my interactions with Purdy Construction. Getting back to a customer in a timely manner: Business standard is to return a phone call within 24 hours, especially when you have a dedicated person (Susan) taking business calls. I waited 72 hours before phoning again. Since there is another review about not responding to a customer inquiry, it sounds like this has been a previous issue. Time frame for project start: As I stated in my review, it is not a rush job and I was fine with the project starting in September. I am completely happy with your availability. Asking ME to phone back in September for a quote: This is what I have an issue with. As a customer, the business should take the responsibility in getting back to a client, or potential client, not the client. My information should've been taken down and a quote taken within a couple of weeks (my hours are flexible and would've been happy to work around your full schedule), and not start the project until September. Never the less, I have already lined up a quote from another contractor. If I accept the bid, the project will not start until late August/ early September, which is perfectly fine with me. The below response from the business owner only confirms my review of Purdy Construction.

I contacted Jamie Purdy to install my grandma's new bathroom sink and faucet in her Land Park…read morehouse. He arrived on time and went to work straight away. I was not able to stay for the entire install as I had to leave for work. When I got home not only was everything in place and working perfect but all cleaned up - it was like he was never there! With the exception of the beautiful new items, of course. My grandma said everything had gone really well while I was gone. We have had bad experiences with contractors in the past leaving garbage, debris, unfinished work, or just doing an overall sketchy job. Jamie is friendly, honest and efficient. We will definitely be contacting him next time we need work done.

I don't typically post reviews, so yelp bumped my review. I just re-added it though because I feel…read morethat the work and service I received from Darrell and his team is worth taking the time to mention. I've used Investor Renovations three times now for work I needed done to my house; and every time I've been more than happy with the service and the finished product. Darrell is great. He takes the time to go over what you need done and even offers inputs and suggestions based on his experience. After meeting with him he promptly provided a thorough estimate with cost breakdowns and worked with me to help meet my budget. He has access to all types of contractors too, so it's like one stop shopping for all your home renovation needs. His team works hard and gets the job done fast, all while providing great quality work. Darrell then does a thorough check and corrects any issues he finds (even the ones you didn't notice). His team even comes back promptly to correct issues well after the work was completed and paid for! Good luck finding other contractors that do that. I strongly recommend Investor Renovations to anyone looking to having work done on their house. They raise the bar on the level of service you receive from contractors, and I wouldn't use anyone else for my home projects.

Brian Tetz is the most reliable and trustworthy contractor you will ever hope to meet. We have…read moreknown him for over 30 years and have had him do all types of jobs for us, from complete remodels to emergency repairs. If he can't do a job (rare), he'll let you know. Like I said, he's honest. We recently had a rental house completely updated, interior and exterior + master bath remodeled. Brian was our general contractor, and though he did a great deal of the work himself, he knows who to call for specialty situations (refinishing wood floors, grout cleaning, shower door installation). If you're in need of quality work--not some cheap or shoddy workmanship--then give him a call. If he's busy, and you have a little flexibly, he is worth the wait. We've NEVER been disappointed. BTW: he's a cabinet maker too.

He is…read moreknowledgeable with solar and has great conscious communication and high quality work ethics, which are hard to come by these days. He did not harass me with telephone calls wondering if I was going to work with Good Shepard. His prices were the best.
