The Stone Shop saved the day…read more We were in the middle of renovating our bathroom when our contractor informed us that the 5' long X 3" wide marble saddle under the shower door was too narrow and we needed to get a 5 inch wide one right away. We tried to find one on-line, we went to Lowes and Home Depot, and we could not find one that matches what we need, and the contractor needed it ASAP. We remember THE STONE SHOP did our kitchen last year so we called and Ashley told us to come over right away and pick out a slab we like and she will have it cut to the right size for us. We went there at 11 am and selected one that matches our wall tile color and Ashley said she will have a piece cut out to our specification by 3pm. We went back at 3pm that same afternoon and the piece was all ready for pick-up, all polished to perfection. We brought it back home and the contractor installed it right away. They were incredible in thinking out of the box to help us out. I cannot thank them enough for saving the day. They were friendly, accommodating, and affordable. They did not jack up the price just because it was an emergency. They will bend over backward to help you out. Thank you Ashley and Frank for making life so much easier for us.

I stumbled onto Gamka a few years ago and they ARE solution experts…read more Not only do they sell equipment, accessories, and associated products at competitive prices, but they carry some really hard to find stuff! And their prices aren't on a 300% mark up like some others in the business! And if they don't have it - they can source it! As a contractor, no joke, they make my life and job easier. Seriously, I have won several jobs just because of these guys! They are my go to guys. Because when my competitors cant find a solution for their client, I rely on Gamka's advice to not only find the solution but one that is reliable, cost effective and durable.

I was helping an old friend to renovate her 1960's home. I was not living in her area and did not…read moreknow any contractors in her area. I connected with IC Home Design and the owner Horia. The first job was to take down and rebuild a very old worn out deck. The job completed on time and at the price quote. The craftsmenship was impressive. I then added the ronovation of a shed used for gardening supplies. Again the workmanship and finished product was outstanding. By this point I was completely confident in the quality of work done by IC Home Design. Next was taking up an old kitchen floor with several of flooring including old 4 x4 tile. IC Home Design quickly removed flooring and prepared the surface for new wall to wall tile which he also installed. I wanted the new kitchen cabinets to sit on the new tile. Ultimately he installed the new cabinets and finished off the kitchen install including new appliances, replacing a window with rotted wood and adding some additional electrical outlets. Next up IC Homes completely updated a secondary bathroom and then total renovated the master bathroom. Later IC Home found a floor refinisher to sand down the original hardwood floors and stain the floors which looked like new when he finished. All this activity took place while my eldery friend was still living in the home. Horia was very considerate of her living in the midst of all this mayhem and did little things to help her manage her way thorugh it all. I can't speak highly enough of the the quality of work done by Horia and his company I C Home Design. He is a true craftsemen who is a finished carpenter and knows how home construction should be done. His background includes new home construction and several cerifications that are important to home renovations. He is always a gentleman and a thoughful person. i you are looking for the extra low prices IC Home Design probably is not your contractor but if you want work that you can be proud of Horia and IC Home Design is a wonderful contractor to chose for your projects.

I really wish Yelp had more reviews for contractors. We had decided to build a deck using Trex's…read morematerial and found Freeborne on the Trex website as the top rated deck builder in the area. We found this reputation to be highly deserved. Let me start by saying these guys build decks. They're not making a deck one week, building a basement the next week, painting the week after that. They simply make decks, and they make them extremely well and quickly. Our contact at Freeborne was Lenny and he was always very prompt to respond. He came out to see what we wanted to do, gave us a detailed quote, breaking out a few options we were undecided on including at that time. He told us they would build us a we would love, then send us a bill for that amount, not a penny more. Their crew of 3 had our deck built in no time and we couldn't be happier. We talked to five different people about the deck. Freeborne won in every respect: Time- Others we talked to said the deck would take anywhere between 1 and 3 weeks after the footings were in. Freeborne said it would be 2 days. They actually finished in 1 day + 3 hours. Price- It wasn't even close. Freeborne came in well under the other bids. Part of this is certainly due to the speed with which they build. I was talking to one of the guys on the crew and he said they are one of the largest Trex dealers in the country. I can't verify if this is actually the case, but they are almost certainly saving significant material cost due to this as well. Honesty- Talking to Lenny always gave us a good impression. Beyond that, the way they conduct business eliminates the worry of them disappearing with your money. It really was a great experience working with Freeborne.

*Warning* Nightmare Company Picking Skyview Construction…read more(Morristown, NJ) and Mark was a huge mistake! In the beginning Mark is so nice and makes everything sound rosy, and by the end of your project you will be miserable and must fix his mistakes and perform litigation for items you have already paid him for. I contracted Mark for a 2nd floor addition and garage, and I will say his subs are very good and perform quality work, and likely the only reason there are any positive reviews for Skyview. Mark's scheduling and organization skills are non-existent (30 years of experience ?!?). In my case, I had to step up and do most of what he was contracted for - mostly meet with inspectors and fix and pay for the mistakes he made. Be prepared for him to be absent during your project. He turned a 4-month project into a 14-month one that still is not complete. Be prepared to pay double the price he quotes as well. He lies to you with the price in the beginning to get you hooked, and then you are stuck with him as the costs double before your eyes. My costs more than doubled. I just want to get as far away as possible from Skyview at this point, but I can't because he is trying to extort money from me by holding my kitchen cabinets from being shipped. I have paid for the cabinets (and his fee) in full, and yet he now claims I own him another 5k. Buyer beware - you have been warned that Skyview/Mark is dishonest in my experience.

I would like to recognize Brandi for her interactions with us and the exceptional service,…read morededication, and expertise she consistently brings to her role. She is truly an invaluable asset to EasyClosets and an outstanding representative of the customer service team. There has not been a single occasion when I have brought her a closet design issue that she has not been able to resolve. She is an exceptional troubleshooter and a natural problem solver who approaches every challenge with patience, creativity, and determination. Rather than simply identifying a solution, she takes the time to understand the issue, think outside the box, and find the best possible resolution for the customer. What sets her apart is her remarkable combination of technical knowledge and creative talent. She has a keen eye for design and an ability to envision possibilities that go beyond the immediate problem. Her thoughtful design suggestions and creative ideas have the potential to not only improve the customer experience but also contribute valuable ideas and perspectives to EasyClosets as a whole. Her professionalism and demeanor are equally impressive. She is charming, welcoming, respectful, and consistently polite, even when dealing with challenging or frustrating situations. Her patience seems endless, and she never makes a customer feel as though their concern is an inconvenience. Instead, she remains focused on helping, listening, and finding a resolution. She provides service that is expeditious, knowledgeable, thorough, and genuinely customer-focused. She represents EasyClosets with a level of professionalism and care that reflects extremely well on the organization. Her ability to remain composed under pressure while delivering thoughtful and effective solutions is a quality that should be recognized and celebrated. She is not simply a customer service representative; she is a talented troubleshooter, creative thinker, design-minded problem solver, and exceptional advocate for the customer. Her contributions extend well beyond resolving individual issues--she brings creativity, insight, and a commitment to excellence to every interaction. I believe Brandi is highly deserving of formal recognition. Employees like her are invaluable to an organization because they elevate the customer experience, support their team, identify opportunities for improvement, and consistently demonstrate what outstanding service should look like. Her dedication, talent, patience, and positive attitude make her an extraordinary asset to EasyClosets, and she deserves to be recognized for the exceptional work she does every day. We are grateful customer's for Brandi's help and for the delightful experience we have with her each time we speak to her.

Once I paid my deposit and completed the template process, customer service completely…read moredeteriorated. Communication became entirely one-sided, and I constantly had to chase the company for updates. I was originally told fabrication would take about 10 days. A week later, I called for a status update and spoke with Karolina, who promised to call me back. She never did. Another week later, I called again and was assured I would get an answer that same day. Again, no response. After several more days of trying to get information, I finally spoke with Daniella, who informed me that they didn't even have the stone yet. The installation day was just as frustrating. I was given an arrival window, but the installers never showed up during that time. No one called to let me know they were running late. I had to contact the office multiple times, and each time I was told an even longer wait time. Ultimately, the installers arrived nearly two hours after the scheduled arrival window had ended. During the sales process, they advertise that installation includes a "free new sink." What was never disclosed to me was that I would need to hire a plumber separately to make the sink usable. Additionally, Daniella admitted she forgot to send me the installation paperwork, which included important instructions on how to prepare for installation and what to do afterward. Customers should not have to discover critical information only after the fact because staff failed to provide the required documentation. What is most disappointing is that this company came highly recommended by members of my family. Unfortunately, the experience I received was marked by poor communication, broken promises, missed deadlines, lack of follow-through, and a complete absence of proactive customer service. Once the deposit was collected, I felt like getting accurate information or even a return phone call became a constant struggle. There are plenty of companies that value their customers' time and communicate honestly throughout the process. Based on my experience, I would strongly encourage anyone considering Tri-State to look elsewhere.
