He is clearly experienced in the trade and cares deeply about the work he does and the people he does it for.

Everything was explained very clearly and recommendations were made even for minor things. A friend referred us to Cory and we will happily refer our other friends to him when it's their turn to buy a home. We have nothing but good things to say about our experience with him!

Beware of nickel and dime, and bait and switch practices…read more Make sure your showroom selection is actually in stock or they promise arrival on a given date. Lumber Liquidators has VERY LITTLE flooring materials in stock. If Lumber Liquidators can't guarantee a delivery date, or if they continue with subtle suggestions to switch to another cheaper quality product and they claim "we can most likely get this in a couple weeks" when the product you wanted is much higher quality, and currently on sale...that should be a huge red flag. Consider the following: I asked the salesman for an installation price. He told me $3.69 per square foot which I thought is a good deal since other local contractors had quoted me $4.00 per square foot. So I paid a $25 estimate fee which I normally don't do because honestly...that should be part of any contractors cost of doing business. Sure, it's refundable if you use that contractor...win win for them. Lumber Liquidators does install for 3.69 per square foot. But they add in all kinds of EXTRA FLUFF in their itemized estimate that any other contractor would simply include in their bottom line. For a wood floor this included: 1. saw blade 37.99 2. floor care maintenance kit 34.99 3. seam tape 41.93 4. self leveling cement 29.99 5. Adhesive 77.87 5. L-cleats) 94.95 I guess, According to Lumber Liquidators, after paying the $25 estimate fee, you also need to start buying tools for their contractors such as a 10-inch Dewalt Combo Pack saw blade listed on my estimate. LOL When adding in all these extras, the install price was $4.00 per square foot, just like everyone else in town. Don't forget delivery. Lumber Liquidators will deliver. In my case it would have been $375 for 2 pick-up loads of flooring. This is just another nickle and dime strategy to make up for the so-called "low prices." If you install yourself. If Lumber Liquidators has what you want in stock or promise a date it will arrive. If you have a big truck or trailer. If no other wholesaler or even Jerrys has a better price...by all means buy from Lumber Liquidators.

We started a flooring job with LL Flooring Oct. 2021 and we are still trying to get issues of a…read morevery poorly done job resolved. What was supposed to be a three day job has turned into a 10 month ordeal. Our installer, provided by LL Flooring, arrived and tore out the old floor. He then called the next day to tell us he couldn't come to finish the installation because his truck needed to have the distributor replaced. We offered to come and pull his trailer with our vehicle but he said he wasn't comfortable with that. We offered for him to use our tools, which we had everything he needed, but he was not comfortable with that either. His return to finish the job turned into weeks. We had a New Years Eve party planned that we had to have with the floor all ripped up. When the installer finally arrived to finish the job he smelled so bad we couldn't be in the same room with him. We sat upstairs while he worked. At one point we heard something hitting the walls and appliances. We went down to find that his air compressor hose kept flying off the compressor. In the process our walls, cabinets and refrigerator door were gauged. We have sent pictures of the damage to LL Flooring customer service. Besides the damage done to our kitchen the flooring job was done so poorly major portions of the floor required ripping up and replacing. The installer also did no clean up of the work space in the garage, we did all the clean up. He also left glue all over the flooring planks. Every time we spoke with customer service about this job they were of very little help. They spent more time telling us what they could not do rather how the problems could be remedied. After multiple calls and emails ten months later the flooring mess has been fixed. The refrigerator door with the gouge we were told they would figure out how to deal with that damage. That was 9 months ago. Now they just keep putting us off.

I needed big help with my Eugene home I had just purchased…read more There was no place to put my dishwasher without restructuring the kitchen. The bathroom had the most awful, early 80's, peach colored shower enclosure, I could not live with - and the counter was much too short. The backyard had a large lawn and a small deck - it was crying out for a more useful space for entertaining. My street generates a lot of traffic noise and I needed something to help reduce it. I also wanted an attractive trash/recycling bin deck, close to the street, for convenience. I looked for reviews and Emerald Valley Home Repair popped up. I like licenses and BBB ratings - Ted has them. He was professional in his walk through and intelligent, creative and confident with his advice and ideas - that he quickly put me to ease with his clear rapport I chose Ted Colee. My new larger kitchen space includes my necessary dishwasher and a couple new cabinets and sparkles with quartz counter tops throughout. He also replaced the lighting. The bathroom shower panels were removed and replaced with new bright white tiles. The deck steps down to a circular stone patio that allows for more entertaining and several large potted plants. I worked with Ted on ideas for the front driveway and we came up with a spectacular walled in - shingled and planter deck. It looks fantastic and provides more privacy in my front yard and most importantly, has reduced the road noise. The shingled trash/recycling/green-waste bin deck has a drop down ramp gate: So convenient! This was a series of jobs that effectively have turned this house into my home. Knowledge, skill, dependability, trust and respect are all vital in building that working relationship and creativity and flexibility complete the package. Bonuses are his abundant experience - Ted even knows plants. I have worked with Ted since and highly recommend him!!

**UPDATE** I called…read moreTerrence and his crew back to replace a large part of my very old sewer line in my back yard that hadn't been touched since it was built in the 1950s. They did a great job, were finished in just a few hours, and I have a new sewer line working great for less than half of the other quotes I got. Fantastic company and a fantastic crew! **ORIGINAL REVIEW** Terrence and Jacob showed up at 4:30 p.m. to clear my sewer line. They both worked hard in the heat for 2 hours to clear large patch of very stubborn sludge in the line, then refused to charge me because they weren't able to clear the line as promised. They are coming back tomorrow morning with the large hydrojetter to finish the job and charge me once the line is cleared. They were both honest, very nice, communicated clearly, and have been a pleasure to work with. I personally really appreciate this kind of honesty and I reward it whenever I can. I'm going to hire them to fix that belly in my sewer line which is a much larger job with a much higher price tag than what I originally called them for. Terrence's bid was substantially lower than the other two bids I got for the same work.
