    I had an issue with my linoleum flooring curling up at the base of the tubs in my two bathrooms. I received several quotes through Yelp and Essam's quote was comparable to others (250 dollars). I chose him based on other Yelp reviews and I was very pleased with the work. Essam was responsive through Yelp and providing a quote. Once I asked him to do the work, we set up a phone call where he explained how he was going to fix the flooring. He did require a 100 dollar deposit which I was easily able to transfer to him through Zelle, and he quickly put me on his schedule. He arrived within the two hour window (between 9 and 11) he provided and the work was completed to my satisfaction. Essam was professional, the work was as described, and the transaction was smooth. I would recommend him and will use him again in the future.

    Best Handyman in the county! He was easy-going, punctual, and kept me informed on everything! I needed to add a shower to my basement bathroom and he and his team knocked it out in a week. His team was hard working and respectful of my place. I recommend these guys for any job!

    Old sink, medicine cabinet and faucet

    Essam gave my small bathroom a mini makeover and it looks great! He replaced the vanity top, light fixture and medicine cabinet. He also installed a light over my shower, replaced the crown moulding and painted the entire bathroom. Essam and his team work fast and efficiently and the price was great. I definitely will be using him for more work around my house.

Malek and his crew have been nothing but professional, timely, easy to work with, and very friendly! Their work is top notch while the pricing is extremely fair. Malek will always be our go-to guy!

    **Excellent Service from Start to Finish - Highly Recommend!**…read more Malek from Sider Construction exceeded our expectations in every way. After finding him on Yelp (where his stellar reviews caught my attention), he responded promptly with a detailed and fair estimate that gave me confidence in moving forward. One thing that impressed me right from the start was his patience when I needed extra time to coordinate with my tenants' schedules. He was understanding and did not make me feel rushed, which speaks volumes about his customer service approach. Malek delivered more than he promised - showing up precisely on time and maintaining clear communication throughout the project. My tenants were equally impressed. The quality of work was great and completed at a (more than) fair price that reflected true value. It's rare to find a contractor who combines reliability, skill, and genuine professionalism so seamlessly. I wouldn't hesitate to hire Sider Construction again and will definitely be recommending Malek to friends and family. Thank you for making what could have been a stressful project so smooth and positive!

    I chose Liberty Painting because of the great reviews they received. I found out the reviews were…read morenot exaggerated. I contracted them to completely repaint the walls in a townhouse that was between tenants. Luis accepted the 4 day window of time and the estimate beat competitors by thousands of dollars. What I didn't expect was the exceptional preparation and repair prior to painting. They did so much more than simply filling nail holes. They spackled and sanded every imperfection in the walls. They laid plastic and drop cloths over every floor, including the stairs. After seeing the great look of the walls, I asked Luis to paint the trim as well. The estimate he provided for this late request was unbeatable. With a ten man motivated and very personable team, they were nearing completion by the middle of the second day when I decided they should also paint the ceilings. Again another unbeatable estimate. These guys are great and fast. They even repaired a damaged base board molding next to the refrigerator at no extra cost. The completed job was great. Luis and his team at Liberty Painting have my strongest recommendation. I will definitely use them again. Their cost and quality of work cannot be beat.

    To say I'm happy with Liberty Painting would be an understatement. I found this company by way of…read moretheir Google & Yelp reviews. And the 5 star ratings don't lie! This company is by far one of the best paint contractors I've ever worked with. They're currently still working in my house for a big multi room project, but I was so pleased with the work they've already begun to do that I just had to post a review. Luis is very pleasant and professional. They offer competitive pricing. And most importantly, his team is superb. I've already highly recommended Liberty Painting to the owner of Benjamin Moore franchise in McLean, VA as well as friends, family and neighbors. In a world of greedy, lying, money hungry contractors who are more interested in over quoting and not being as professional as they promote themselves to be, Liberty Painting sells itself simply on fair pricing, honesty and excellence in workmanship. I recommend this company 1 million percent From a happy customer!

The painters were friendly and didn't need any oversight, were friendly, worked quickly, and cleaned up after themselves. We had two hiccups along the way, which both dealt with us adding on painting our front door which I offer as cautionary tales for anyone getting their front door painted: First, the powerwashing of the front door also broke our electronic lock. Patrick was quick to respond and removed the cost of the replacement lock from our invoice. (Very kind, thank you!!) Second, I don't think they told us the right kind of paint to buy because it has always looked too matte and stroke-y, and has lately started to bubble. In the future, I would do more research about what type of paint to buy rather than ask the guy who shows up -- I shouldn't have sprung it on them, even though they were more than happy to do it. Who knew that door paint selection could be such a process? Despite these two notes, I would definitely use Patrick's again in the future. It's hard to find a place that offers great customer service these days, and I am very grateful!

    I hired Patrick's Painting for a small project to (1) repair and repaint a defect in a bedroom…read moreceiling and (2) repaint a bathroom. A reason for hiring them for this small job was to evaluate their ability to handle a large job - painting the exterior of our house. Based on my experience with the small job I will not consider them. A two-man team was sent. The person who repaired and repainted the bedroom ceiling did a good job. The person who repainted the bathroom did not do a good job. Specifically, the area below the bathroom mirror light fixture had a surface problem that was not addressed. Possibly an attempt to cover the problem was made by applying a very thick paint application. Not only did this not correct the problem but added to it as clearly visible paint brush marks were left behind. I do not understand why a clearly visible problem was not corrected at the time. It is not easy to contact Patrick's Painting but l eventually did and they sent someone to correct the problem. So, a problem that should have not existed was corrected. The outcome for Patrick's Painting is that I will not consider them for painting my house. The included photograph is of the defects as they were left originally. Whether the job was fairly priced or not, I do not know. I was not concerned with the price of this job, but rather the quality of work performed. They do not measure up.

Here's a breakdown of the work: - Finished construction of an unfinished basement - Herbert guided me through the entire floor plan, explaining the electrical layout, wall placements, and ideal appliance orientation - Built a kitchen from scratch -- excellent craftsmanship and attention to detail - Painted the entire house, including ceilings, walls, floors, and even the garage They completed all of this in just over two weeks, working 7 days a week from 7 AM to 7 PM. The quality of the work was outstanding. Herbert was reliable, responsive, and extremely accommodating. I had multiple change requests during the job, and he handled all of them without hesitation. After getting several quotes, Herbert's pricing was the most competitive. All work was completed to code and with professionalism. If you're looking for a skilled, jack-of-all-trades contractor, Herbert is your guy. He brings in specialists for larger tasks (electrical, plumbing, landscaping, etc.) and manages the project seamlessly. I'll definitely be calling him for future work on my properties and strongly recommend him to others.
