Pete and Kat came within a couple of days after my call to view the driveway coating project and…read moreprovide a contract price. I was told the job would be completed in a month, but two days later they had an opening and so came and did a nice and very neat job of sealing the cracks and sealing the blacktop. The whole job was completed rapidly, allowing more than enough for the driveway to completely dry by evening. A couple of cracks did not completely fill so they came back two days later and redid these cracks, and even added a bit more sealer on 20% of the driveway at no additional cost. I am pleased to strongly recommend Pete's Absolute Asphalt. (Note that even though this review lists me as in San Francisco for some odd reason (possibly a hidden VPN) please be assured that I and my driveway are in Ithaca NY!)

Spencer has been helping me with handyman projects since I bought my first home. I've never been…read moregood at home repairs, so it has always been important to me to have a well rounded handyman whom I can trust. Spencer has insulated my home, caulked it, painted it and even built some small pieces of furniture. I've needed dimmer switches installed, faucets replaced, weather stripping, locks replaced....

He worked fast, explained exactly what he was going to do and why he was doing it, then did exactly what he said he was going to do! He also explained how he would save me money on materials. He did so, and his work fixed the problem. He may be the only handyman I have ever worked with who was on time. All-in-all, a great experience.

Jeff did a remodel of our kitchen, using JSI cabinets purchased from Cayuga Lumber. The project…read moretook just about 3 months which is apparently not unusual no matter who the contractor is. He came to our house every day and worked steadily through to completion, removing and recycling old cabinets and appliances, adding some cabinet trim, redoing plumbing and electrical, replacing a window, sanding and painting and all other aspects of the project other than the floor which was subcontracted to another company on Jeff's recommendation. In addition to general carpentry skills, which were superb, Jeff had a good eye for colors, symmetry, and other details that might otherwise have escaped us. When we ran into occasional hiccups with local vendors, he provided a calming perspective and sound advice on how to remedy situations. He was also attentive to issues related to dust management; putting up lots of cloths to contain dust as best as it could be done. We think one advantage was that Jeff is a one man show with no subcontractors have to coordinate with. Had we known ahead of time, we'd have just had him do the floor as well; we just didn't know he was so talented in so many areas. All things considered, we would hire Jeff again in a heartbeat. And if we were to do another kitchen, we would be sure to do it in the summer or early fall because the process really does leave you with no place to fix food in your home for a long time. Fortuitously, we started in late August and finished just before the snow started to fly; thus we were able to operate a small food prep site (microwave, countertop, fridge) in the garage and also barbecue outdoors frequently.

When compared with other contractors and bids, I found that they offer exceptional value. The Roots team listens extremely well. They take ownership in all aspects of the project, even when it could be argued it was someone else's problem. I REALLY appreciate that. Once we talked about a task needed, it always got done.

The crew did a fine job, but you never really knew how much they were charging per hour, as it was always hidden in the final estmate. I finally found out the hourly on a project where they were labor only. They sent 3 guys, one of which stood around until needed as a runner. Bottom line, if you feel that $112/hr. is a fair wage, then disregard this review.
