KMK Remodeling
I used KMK remodeling for some drywall repairs and to lay a tile floor in one of my bathrooms.
As far as the bathroom floor goes, I had no complaints (the only reason it's not a 1 star) - great job on the bathroom floor.
However, I had numerous problems with the timeliness of the work done, the quality of the drywall work, and lack of professionalism with things like
the contractor not cleaning up after himself.
ALWAYS LATE/CANCELS:
Firstly, as I said, great job on the bathroom floor - I would definitely recommend them for tile work without question. However, the contractor was always lite by at least 4 hours. He would say each time he would start at 8am and not get there until 12/1pm. On more than one occasion my fiancé and I had to cancel plans
because the contractor didn't start when he said he would, so he would end up finishing much later in the day which would overlap with our plans, causing us to have to cancel. This literally happened each time he came to do work. On top of being late all the time, he would totally cancel on an agreed upon day for him to come and do work on a job. He would say, "I'll come through Sunday" and then Sunday would come and go and we wouldn't hear from him. Then Monday we'd contact him and ask about Sunday and he'd say "sorry I got caught up I'll come through Tuesday" and then not show up Tuesday and then he'd say he'd come by the next day and he'd get there at 7:30pm at night, so we would have to tell him to come another day since he was there 10 hours after the normal time to work (which is during the day). My fiancé is a teacher and goes to bed early - we didn't plan on having a contractor in the house working at 10pm. He cancelled several times and would use excuses like "my day job got busy" or "had another contract that got busy" etc. My thing is - if you are not sure you can fit someone into your schedule don't make any promises! I'd rather you schedule something for a week later and be true to your word than to schedule something for the next day knowing you'd be hard pressed to meet that schedule. (see screenshots attached for example text messages with cancellations).
DRYWALL WORK SUB-PAR:
I had him repair drywall in my hallway ceiling on the middle floor. His drywall work was rough (visibly and to the touch) and apparently had paint clumps in it when he painted over it with a brush that had dried paint on it. Also he left a VISIBLY OPEN space between the drywall and the fire sprinkler (see attached pictures and video). I had to pay another company $200 to retouch, repaint and smoothen the drywall KMK remodeling installed.
DIDNT CLEAN UP AFTER HIMSELF:
To top it off he left drywall residue on my hallway tile and hardwood floors and left it for us to clean up. He also left drywall footprints on the front porch and in the grass. He literally left drywall boot prints in the grass. (see photos of this attached) read more
