    Hole needing repair after the fire sprinkler leak was repaired.
    Kimyatta D.

    I had a leak with my fire sprinkler system and after I had that repaired (get your fire sprinklers inspected folks), I needed someone to fill and patch the hole. I already looked at the reviews for Longshore but decided to open up a project on Yelp for comparison anyway. To my delight, they were one of the first to respond. Alexander was friendly and answered all of my questions, so I booked the job for that week. Julio (who turns out to be family) showed up promptly and got to work. He provided drop cloths and wore booties. I don't think it took him three hours to do the work and it was seamless. His clean up was also on point; normally they leave something for me to have to clean up but I didn't have to. I had other patch work and filling that needed doing on my second floor (and along the stairs) and I booked them again and Julio came back out and took care of that work as well. I'm beyond pleased with the work done on the 2nd floor. The paint he got blended perfectly with my sage green walls, walls that have been painted that color over 17 years. I appreciated Julio's attention to detail and his clean-up was once again on point. Best of all, the price was reasonable and they didn't send an invoice right away to ensure that the work was done to my satisfaction. They don't just do paint and patchwork, they embody the term handyman. I'm selling my house, so I'm grateful to have had this work taken care of by such a great team.

    They were able to come fix our broken fence quickly. They not only fixed it, but give it a nice coat of paint. It looks amazing.

Roof leaking, windows leaking, wood rot, termite damage. What a mess. Seamus has the skills (and in the case of the roof, the associates) to fix all of these problems. His team chiseled out all of the aged stucco and added new chicken wire, flashing and weep screeds. He removed all the rotten wood and essentially rebuilt the front corner of my house, including a decorative wall that was so leaky that its bones had completely rotted away. Then his team re-applied base stucco and let it cure properly before mixing a beautifully colored finishing coat that was perfectly textured. The house looks amazing now. I had been putting my head in the sand for years, ignoring all the growing cracks in the stucco and knowing that water was soaking the bones of my house. I have peace of mind now. Also, as people note below, Seamus is responsive and a good communicator. So important in a contractor. Thanks Seamus.

Unfortunately, after a miscommunication about part of the project, which I thought we had resolved amicably (I compensated him for the materials he had already used), he later admitted he was upset and had been purposely avoiding my follow up communication. He left the original job on Friday saying he would return the following week to finish a few remaining items. After that, I spent over a month trying to get a response, with little to no communication and no explanation for this treatment. When I finally expressed my frustration, he admitted he had intentionally been ignoring me because of the earlier misunderstanding and offered to send someone to finish the outstanding tasks, "if that's what I was upset about." That level of unprofessionalism was far more disappointing than the few remaining tasks on the project. Misunderstandings happen, but they shouldn't result in giving a customer the silent treatment and leaving a job unfinished. I cannot recommend someone who responds to conflict by avoiding communication completely.
