Before the big move, I would only be in town a few days across multiple weeks but Alex met me at my home and on my schedule. I called and emailed 5 other handymen and explained in detail and with pictures what I needed done (kitchen cabinets, backsplash, crown molding in all bedrooms and living room, multiple window replacement, installing driveway lights) but Alex was the only one who came to see the house and he gave me a fair estimate that he stuck to. His expertise and professionalism were exactly what we were looking for especially since we had to manage the project remotely. Alex's advice on materials and his discount on paint at S Williams also helped save me some serious cash. These are the guys you're looking for. I'll be using them again when I redo my floors and finish my basement!

We received quotes from a few different contractors. 2 Brothers' pricing was very competitive; what gave them the edge, was that they do almost all of the work themselves. This meant we'd know who was in our home every day, plus we didn't have to worry about a minor delay having a domino effect on project schedules like what can happen when you're dealing with multiple subs. Pete, Jamie & Auggie are genuinely nice people who seem to enjoy what they do. Pete was very responsive to emails & questions from the initial scoping phase through to completion. He presented options that were aligned with our goals for both style and price point, with no pressure to upsell us. Jamie pays good attention to detail and we were especially pleased with the tile work he did for our backsplash. He also endured my multiple questions with patience and good humor. There were also thoughtful added touches like when Auggie was painting our kitchen ceiling and took it upon himself to touch up some spots in a few others rooms as a bonus. There were some small unpredictable hiccups as does happen with any major project, and the guys were immediately responsive and kept us updated on next steps. This is a local family business doing very good quality work. When it's time for our bathroom remodel, I'll be sure to give Pete a call.

And yet the website says they do all kinds of things. We always test out contractors with small jobs before hiring for big jobs and we're looking to fully remodel the kitchen.

Calls were returned, the staff was timely, courteous and thoughtful. The bid I received was very competitive and I had high confidence that they would be able to do a good job, on time and on budget. However, I did not personally go through all the listed work items with Marlon. My proxy did half of the items, and the gaps reflected in the bid and I was not comfortable selecting them with such a big disconnect. I will definitely keep them in mind for my next work - and ensure that I personally go through the work areas to ensure clarity on both ends.

The previous owner of our home took the lazy way out and had the cable hanging out of the ceiling, stapled to the wall in my closet, and ran it through the wall again near the floor so it came out though the other side of the wall where you can plug in your TV. Bruno responded quickly with an estimate and was even able to do the work on the weekend. He arrived on time, was very professional and really nice! In addition to rerouting the TV cable through the drywall, he carefully patched up the wall for me--it was as if the cable never existed! I highly recommend Bruno's Home Service.

Even…read moreScale did over 20k worth of work on my house, which is by far the most I've ever spent-- my wife and I not being huge earners--but I got a *TON* done for a very good price at the highest quality. Here's what we had done: Problem- A poorly built pergola structure was dumping rain water under a poorly built gutter, which was leaking into the kitchen drywall and causing the ceiling to near collapse over time. Solution- EvenScale emergency-fixed and painted the kitchen drywall over the weekend, installed new gutters to eliminate first part of the problem. Problem- Roof was 5 years overdue for new shingles and pergola resting on shingles was making this problem worse. Solution- EvenScale came back later once we had chosen special architectural shingles to give the house a rustic cottage look and reroofed the house. They raised the pergola on two supports that fit nicely on top of our patio. At this point, we figured we might as well finish the front path and portico/awning that was falling apart as well. Problem- no landscaper wanted to try and match our front path to the scattered, rustic stone look of our house. We kept getting expensive quotes for uniform gray paver paths. We waned a stepping stone path and a grouted multicolored stone path that arched in front of house. Solution- Roberto and EvenScale worked with us in a large project to do exactly what we wanted, including hand-cutting the stones, hand-selecting the colors, and placing the stones prior to grouting in a pattern the day before so that we had input into the final result. Problem- the awning was old and looked very DYI but wasn't totally rotten, and we didn't want to overspend on a new construction. Solution- EvenScale redesigned the awning over our existing awning, cutting out some of the supports, fitting it with the new gutter, and using painted PVC to give it a taller and more elegant look. Overall, this was a top-notch experience for us as homeowners. We had input into every aspect of the project and got to know to workmen on a personal level as they communicated their plans alongside the foreman and owner. We ended up with the exact look we wanted at about 60 percent of the price we were quoted elsewhere, and these other quotes were "take-it-or-leave-it" quotes that didn't quite make us feel like it was what we wanted. With EvenScale, we got exactly what we dreamed and so for folks who are careful with their money and their home, it was simply put, a dream come true. I urge you not to hesitate if you are interested in getting the highest quality with a very personal touch.

We purchased Kohler rain shower plus hand-held and tub mechanism with all necessary valves from Fergussons. We kept our reclining Kohler tub with side st.steele handles. We needed to tear out and replace all prior tiles due to leak, and wet uninsulated walls around tub. Mr. Buendia and his team planned out the job, gave us a reasonable estimate, told us from when to when the job was going to be done, emailed us job proposal, we agreed and signed contract, and the the job started. They covered floors and stairs to prevent any damage, while we made sure they had access to an empty bathroom. In the middle of job we discovered that we needed to reinstall 'all walls, which we did not know when we started. Mr. Buendia and I went to the Tile store on Eisenhower Ave., and we chose together a tile that would fit and look great, and align with remaining ceramic floor. The team worked in coordinated way, and the end result is truly terrific! We are very satisfied and very much recommend Mr. Buendia's team to others. Prior to this job we had also hired Mr. Buendia for other jobs, redoing siding and trim on a townhouse, replacing basement foor with tile, replacing ceiling tiles with a true ceiling, painting, installing storm doors. Each time, we always received work proposal, reasonable cost estimate, and the work has always been excellent. RB Contractors, or Mr. Buendia and his team have always delivered an excellent, professional job. We absolutely recommend them!
