Our back patio is still without the promised sunroom.
Cricket R.

Paid them $8,800 down in August 2021 for a sunroom and almost 2 years later the owner is still asking us to be patient. Our patience has reached its limit. We have joined others in filing complaints with the state and in courts to try to get our money back. Don't do business with Homestar.

Other families that were stiffed by HomeStar.
Barry R.

Took our money and did nothing! But he is still in business! The owner kept telling us excuses, and I kept believing him. He commended me for my patience, but I was just gullible. After 18 months, I finally realized that this guy is a lying crook.

Drip coming from the electrical; where we removed fan that now has water inside it

Things started off great; we visited the Home Star Construction showroom (off the 101) on February 27, 2021, Brian (salesman) came on March 5th to give us an estimate and as promised, Jerry stopped by on March 6th to pick up our deposit check. This is where their accountability and our satisfaction stopped. Jerry was a no show a few times in March 2021, calls were attempted with messages left in April 2021 and no call backs received, our start date of May 10th came and went with no attempt to notify us until May 14th at 11:53 am, when a message was left on our recorder by Jerry. Message stated permit had been submitted about 2-3 weeks prior, material was arriving, they should have everything ready to start in 2-3 weeks, and he'd be calling in another few weeks with an update, but that they were still at least about 3 weeks out. Needless to say, we would find out later that everything Jerry had stated in the message were all untruths. In all actuality, the permit was not filed until May 18th (not the end of April as was stated in message), although materials started to be dropped off on June 8th, work didn't start until June 9th. In addition, their 2-3 day project turned into a project that took 10 days of work to complete which lasted from June 9th - June 24th. During this 2+ week time line, we had so many issues; a few times we even asked the owner, Dave, to stop by to discuss. Originally, we started a 'breach of contract' discussion with him and knowing now what we didn't know then, we should have stuck to that and gotten out, but we had trusted his word and agreed to stick things out. BIG MISTAKE! They sent other customer's materials to our house (names were written on each piece) along with wrong materials and we were missing materials as well. Doors, windows, screens, roof, etc....All of which are still having issues to this day. Doors don't close right and windows take a lot of effort and finesse to get them closed and locked. Fast forward to the night before their last day where I proceeded to tape off and place sticky notes on issues I had. These issues included yellow marks and dirt on the walls and ceilings, sticky residue on metal pieces, screens that were not flush or torn and windows that would not close properly in order to lock. Fast forward to our first big mist and light rain in August and we notice some leaking where the original house and the new sunroom meet, as well as standing water in the gutters that don't drain properly and drip where the gutter sections meet, one of which is right above the doorway. Fast forward to October where again we have a night of heavy mist and light rain and we now have water coming inside the sunroom through the brand new ceiling fan they installed; water and electricity don't really do well together. Unfortunately, I'm sorry to all for not writing this review earlier, but we have just continued to find things done wrong and have been trying to have others fix the issues. Needless to say, tonight and tomorrow we are expecting a lot of rain and we are very concerned with what will happen next. All I can say is I'd go without a sunroom before I'd ever have Home Star Construction install one.

My sunroom addition is my sanctuary ! A superb job by Homestar construction.

See all

Rob Tol Construction - Deck repair

Rob Tol Construction

(28 reviews)

Rob Tol Construction just completed a full remodel of our master bedroom, bathroom, and closet…read more From the start, working with Rob was a great experience. His bid was competitive, and he was able to offer suggestions and ideas that we hadn't thought of or didn't know were feasible. The initial timeline was several months out, but Rob remained in contact and was able to move us up on the calendar. The project was completed at the quoted price, plus a couple of scope additions we requested. Work took a little longer than expected, likely due to modifications needed to bring our aging home up to standard, and the perfection of our tile work; Rob does things the right way, and uses great subcontractors. The end result is beautiful. The bathroom remodel was completed so perfectly that we now see flaws in our guest bathroom which was remodeled 3 years ago by a different contractor. Our master suite has transformed from the worst part of our home to our personal sanctuary. I would not hesitate to hire Rob Tol Construction again. In fact, we're already planning to when we're ready to start our next project. As a side note, but important to us, Rob and all of his subs were great with our dogs. so we never had to lock them away during the project.

It took a little time to get on his calendar, but it was worth the wait. My remodel involved redesigning three bathrooms and the kitchen. All were taken down to the studs, so there was lots of demolition. Rob sequenced the work so I was never without a functioning bathroom. Everything adjacent to the work areas was wrapped and the floors protected. Rob and his helper were meticulous about checking all the new fittings for leaks and repaired damage from a pre-existing leak from an upstairs bathroom. Rob's original estimate was accurate and the only extras were things I asked for in the course of the job. Now that the job has been done a while I am completely satisfied.

I contacted them because all their reviews were so positive. I have a 3,200 Sq ft attic that has been a hotel to my numerous feral cats/kittens and a few opossums and raccoons for 15 yrs now! They destroyed all the insulation and the heating/air ducting You ask how did this happen, well if you have ever dealt with a large group of feral cats that breed like rabbits, it becomes overwhelming very quickly especially when you don't even know they are up there! Well, we are finally down to two cats living up there so we knew IT WAS TIME TO GET THE ATTIC CLEANED UP, NEW INSULATION AND DUCTING AND THEN CLOSE IT UP FINALLY! I called three contractors expecting them all to turn down the job and I couldn't blame them if they did! Fortunately, SCI - Simons Const was the first company I called. Ryan answered the phone and said he would be out the next da1y to look at it. He went up into the attic and when he came back down he said YES, they would do the job and he explained in full detail to me what they needed to do and how they were going to do it! He also sent me a detailed bid THAT NIGHT and explained a lot of things can come up once it's cleaned up like wiring and structural issues. Obviously these would be added costs but I was informed by Don, who was amazing and worked like a supervisor along with all the crew, every step of the way if they saw anything that was a concern! I could never say enough GOOD THINGS ABOUT DON!!! He always kept me informed what they were doing, when they would be here and he always made sure they were not interrupting my daily activities! He always kept Ryan in touch of what was going on and then Ryan would call or text me too to make sure I knew what was going on! I tell you, THESE GUYS ARE ON IT and SO EASY TO WORK WITH!!! They also had to keep in touch with my heating/air Co, the insulation Co and my roofers because they had to cut holes in my roof to take out all the old insulation and ducting so we could put in the new stuff! Ryan suggested putting together a group text with everyone's numbers so that EVERYONE KNEW WHAT WAS GOING ON AND WHEN, IT KEPT THE PROJECT RUNNING SMOOTHLY AND ON TIME ​The entire project only took 1 month but it felt like it was just a couple of weeks because everyone was so efficient and fortunately there were no unforseen issues I could go on forever about SCI - Simons Const, Ryan, Don and the wonderful crew but all you really need to know is THEY ARE THE BEST at least from my experience in every way!!! So easy to work with, honest reliable and they REALLY CARE ABOUT THEIR CUSTOMERS AND THEIR WORK SPEAKS FOR ITSELF! They now are the only construction Co that I will use and MOST DEFINITELY RECOMMEND TO EVERYONE !!!! THANK YOU RYAN, DON AND THE REST OF THE AMAZING CREW!! You truly made something happen that I never thought was possible and it wouldn't have happened if it were not for SCI- SIMONS CONST!!! THANK YOU!!!

Owner sounds like they are in the restaurant or clothing business ( anything but construction- not in roofing ) and they are taking info down for the 1st time on a CRM system. Would not recommend. In looking at the reviews before it sounds like this happens with the owner I would not trust business to work on my house let alone pay money for.
