TL;DR: I hired them for a custom loft. During the project we had an argument about a ship ladder,…read moreleading to an early termination of the project. They also didn't follow the design provided before the project leading to failed inspection on permit. Long wall of text below. A few months back, I was looking to build a sleeping loft in our family room. I engaged a structural engineer and architect to design the loft. I then contacted Cody via Thumbtack after researching their portfolio for the project. I've shared the architecture and design multiple times via text and emails and Cody assured me he can build "whatever the architect has designed". I've put down a 12k deposit and kicked start the project. What I've learnt eventually is that Cody and David have a certain way to do decking, and they're reluctant to do stuff outside of what they are used to. At the same time they didn't consult the design doc as they're building. When the project got to the part of building the stair/ladder for the loft, we got into a problem. I wanted to have a stair/ladder that is steeper than the standard (with a slope angle about 50 degree). This was documented clearly in the architecture design that I've shared before the project started. When they cut the stringer neither in the style nor dimension of the design without checking with me, I pointed it out and asked for it to be fixed. In particular the stair landing didn't match with the end of the loft area (photo attached) They asked me to cover the cost of the replacement ($400), I proposed that we split the cost and they got upset with me and said "it's not the proper way to do it". Only when I opened the agreed design that they agreed it can be done in that way. (design photos included) Things halted when we again couldn't agree on the placement of the post for the handrail. I've attached a photo of the placement of the post that they propose. When I pointed out it didn't look like the design, and I couldn't approve the post, their answer was that the design couldn't be done. I suggested another placement. They said it would "look ugly" and "doesn't work that way". This is when I realized that they didn't get that while some of the parts of the design that they didn't particularly care about, it was important to me. Our values simply don't align: Cody and David value their way of building a deck, while I want a custom loft that matches my design. It had gotten to a point that any discussion could turn into an argument and communication was no longer productive. Here are the few things they have commented up until this point: - That the design of the stairs which was done by a structural engineer and an architect is not the proper way to do stairs. - That if they bring this to their friend to build the ladder as in the design, the friend would think "you're crazy" - That they can place a lien on my house if I don't pay them. Mind you this was in the middle of a discussion when the work wasn't even completed yet. - That if I posted a bad review on their website they could just take it down. - That "their time is money too" and if they could go back, they wouldn't do this project for me. Well that would make 2 of us. On top of that, the project was delayed and dragged out for a month to accommodate their other projects. I decided on that day to end the contract without the handrail installed, this is not worth the stress and anxiety from working with Cody and David, not knowing what part of the design they will disagree with me tomorrow and how long this would drag out. I paid them in full without the handrail - the project cost 19.7k in total. I now have a unfinished loft which failed framing inspection so 3k on architecture and permit fees down the gutter.

I really, really wanted to give Tombo a good review. At the beginning, there were great. They…read moreworked with us to schedule a time for an estimate, were very communicative and then after they conducted the visit for the estimate, they suddenly emailed to say they wouldn't do the work. There was no explanation, no other recommendations for other contractors, and the work we're doing to the home isn't even anything drastic. We had a hopes set on using Tombo, but then when they cancelled after doing the estimate visit (and didn't even share their thoughts) we were forced to find another contractor. To me, reliability is key with contractors, and I can't say I found that at all with Tombo.

This guy came to my home to give me an estimate (which cost me $200) and was the most condescending person I've met in my entire life. He didn't really want my business; he didn't even tried to make a connection with me and my family because he was under the impression that he was much better than me. He kept on saying "what I'm trying to explain is..." well, I'm not stupid. I really think I was stereotyped and labeled right before the he came through my door. I should have kicked him out of my house and I really wish I did but I was trying to be civil. By the way, $2100 to install 14 square feet of backsplash is ridiculous.

We had been discussing reworking our backyard (that sits on the edge of a steep hillside),…read morespecifically the retaining wall, but we couldn't find anyone that had a well thought out plan or how they could do it. Fast forward a few month, we drove past a neighbors house and saw Western's sign, gave them a call and within a day or so Ross was at the house walking through what we wanted, what they would do, how they would do it, and the next day we had an estimate. The steep hillside, and retaining wall weren't the only challenges, the biggest is that there is no access to get equipment to the backyard, so everything would need to be done by hand. Ross and the Western team continued to work through our pricing questions, and we came to a fair price to do the work. When it came time to do the work, the crew did not disappoint. They were moving quickly, and were doing great work. They had some tough logistics and made it seem easy. The final product was an amazing backyard, a structurally sound retaining wall, and awesome new landscape around the house. The whole time, we always had access to Ross, and more so to his team that would email us back same day or within 24 hours. They always let us know what was going on. We would definitely recommend the Western team and will go back to them for future work!
