Liv Construction began work on Dec. 26, 2024 and finished 56 days later. I've waited to give a review to see how everything held up. It was a renovation of the kitchen, living area and bathroom, HVAC and On-demand Hot Water. Plus some outside work - pouring a concrete pad for gazebo and RV Port.
While I personally like everyone that we worked with, we did have some problems during construction.
Demolition workers almost removed the support beam to the house before my husband asked them to stop and check with contractor.
Each time we brought a concern to the foreman, the answer was always the same, "What do you want me to do?" The answer was always the same, "I want you to fix it."
This included:
Kitchen cabinets that were installed 2 inches from the ceiling.
Kitchen island was off center and was only fixed when my husband measured and showed them the discrepancy.
The concrete pour for the gazebo was not framed correctly and needed a second pour of concrete. One corner is still not square. The joint between the pours is now cracking and the owner has stopped communicating.
Concrete overflow was scattered in the far backyard and was never cleaned up.
The gazebo walls were installed backwards.
One door they installed has a huge gap and let in lots of cold winter air.
They were unwilling to run an electric line to the kitchen island because they would have to drill into the concrete slab.
No drop cloth was put down when they were drilling new holes in the ceiling for the HVAC vents.
After about 10 months, the grout in the bathroom and kitchen was cracking.
Glue from the tile dried on the outside of the tile and looked unsightly.
The contractor gave us a one-year warranty, and some things were fixed, but they have stopped communicating. read more
