I had Carlos and his team assemble our European style kitchen cabinets. They were made of finished…read morewood and lacquer cabinets. We sent our kitchen assembly instructions ahead of time to make sure they were aware. My overall sense is that Carlos is fairly capable and experienced but either his team or him are not as careful as we had damages to our finished wood toe kicks and our lacquer cabinets looked like they had been dragged over nails as they were being assembled. I didn't appreciate that they made 0 mention of it at all and I had to point it out. As the homeowner, I essentially had to baby sit them for 5 days through the install since it felt like they were incapable / unwilling to read the kitchen cabinet installation instructions in detail and I caught several mistakes early on during the cabinet assembly that made me hesitant to leave it unattended. Carlos's attitude was particularly bad through the entire experience as well. Always made it seem like we were inconveniencing him or being too nit picky even if we caught some mistakes. At one point, he even threatened to quit after the assembly but before the installation simply because he had underestimated the complexity of the project. We did have a 1 day delay due to some plumbing / electrical issues but that's pretty typical as far as kitchen cabinet installations go AFAIK. In the end, they were able to get all the kitchen cabinets installed, albeit with a lot of effort from my end due to the more custom nature of the project. The price was affordable and the work was solid (minus the scratches) but for me the bad attitude wasn't worth it.

They are prompt , have fair and transparent pricing, and (most importantly) do excellent work. Here's what you can expect: a clean and contained worksite, attention to detail, efficient (but not rushed work), and a quality product regardless of the finish level you require. Having worked with a lot of contracting specialists over the years, Davon's high tough service is what anyone would want on a job site. I highly recommend and will use them on my next drywall project.

The Great (+2 stars) ==========…read more * The structural work: Our home is on a great, new, solid foundation (with shear walls), so we feel as safe as we can be in our home for an earthquake! * Our basement is also now more usable. * Drainage: There is now drainage around the foundation and under the basement slab, so we are no longer worried about our basement flooding! * The working crew were very friendly and considerate. The Bad (-1 star): ========== * The electrical subcontractor was quite bad. The electricians didn't install the dryer outlet properly (one conductor came loose before I first used it), most outlets they installed are loose (they give when pushing in a plug), and they installed a used, old (not LED compatible) dimmer for the LED lights they installed. Also, the owner yelled at his team a lot. * The plumbing subcontractor was bad, too. They misdrilled several holes, damaging the interior of the home. They didn't seal around exterior penetrations into the house. They didn't put a cover over the branch of a wye that was no longer needed. They wouldn't do anything about the loss of hot water pressure in a bathroom faucet that occurred after they moved some plumbing around (I ended up having to disconnect and disassemble the hot water valve myself and I found a piece of silicone clogged in there). They over-glued the drain of the laundry supply box making it nearly impossible to remove the cap, and they lost the o-rings on my faucet aerator. The Ugly (-2 stars): ========== * They overlooked details in the plans about where walls and doors should go, and denied responsibility since they weren't in the structural engineer's plans, which they opted to not have updated with the revisions I told them about. This lead to a sewer pipe being installed in an inconvenient location (it went through the foundation, so it can't be moved), a structural wall that was almost built in the wrong place (I caught it while they were digging the footing), and a room that was built with no doorway (they had to cut some framing to make the opening). * The pricing/scope was negligent at best, but I'd put it closer to misleading or deceptive. During the initial visits, they talked about all the things they would do (including putting up framing, drywall, and insulation), and then sent over an estimate that I accepted. I didn't realize until halfway through the project that the estimate didn't include many of the things they talked about (including the framing, drywall, and insulation); those apparently would be part of "Phase 2," not included in the price of the first estimate. I had chosen E&F over another estimate that was less expensive even though it did explicitly contain the "additional" scope. I was also surprised that the electrical and plumbing (most of which was necessary to get them out of the way for the structural work) was billed separately; i.e., an unexpected additional expense. * They chose to rebuild a segment of stairs (rather than just adding two steps at the bottom, per the plans), which ended up having insufficient clearance with an overhang halfway down. They tried to convince me there was no new problem because they built them the same as before (but the run of the new stairs was one inch longer, causing the 4th step down to be 4 inches closer to the overhang) and resisted remedying the issue. They just ended up taking a sawzall to trim the overhang -- a joist -- which I just have to hope doesn't compromise any structural integrity! Further, they didn't even finish the stairs (sand and seal); "Test your staining skills," they said. * They ghosted before Phase 2. As the structural work was reaching completion, we were going back and forth on scope for Phase 2. However, when the structural work was actually completed, they just stopped communicating, left dirt and demo debris they left on our driveway for a month, then disappeared. There were lots of things they removed to get out of the way (like several segments of fence) but didn't put back. I could easily add 3x more issues and details, but this review is already too long.

I hired Wilmar and his team to repaint the exterior of my 1926 stucco house and can't recommend…read morethem highly enough. The house looks great and he and his team were professional at every step in the process. It was obvious that they not only care about doing quality work, but also that it is done correctly (i.e. fixing rotten wood before painting it, using high quality paint and products, etc.), which I really respect. He was a bit more expensive than some of the other quotes I received, but I cannot stress enough that it was worth every penny. From start to finish Wilmar was great to work with and I will be hiring him and his team again for anything I need. Looking for more details? Here are all the things I appreciated: - Great communication, from quote throughout the process, including some touch-ups (where I accidentally made a mess of the paint) I could rely on him promptly responding - Walked me around the property at the assessment and walked me through specifics of the process i.e., areas where wood and glazing would be replaced, what types of paint he would recommend, what products and brands he would use, etc. - Thorough quote which aligned to everything he walked me through - Great team who were respectful of my property and cleaned up after themselves EVERY DAY. I can't stress how much I appreciated this, having had other workmen and teams either leave the area a mess for me to clean up, or damaged other parts of my property. Wilmar and team never did this! - Thorough prep, quality products and work - I had one issue with the stair paint peeling up after it rained and Wilmar did not hesitate to come out and make it right (and even fix a spot on my drive way that I'd messed up.... stepped through caulk and tracked it around) The house looks great. I'm thrilled I found Wilmar and team, they will be my go to painters from this point on. I highly recommend him and his team.

His estimate was detailed, thorough and included replacement of any wood trim necessary. It was key that his team could handle the woodwork without me needing to engage and coordinate a separate handyman or carpenter. I chose to have his team do some additional work to remove an overgrown hedge and to replace a trellis. Wilmar's bid to paint my home was competitive. As price-conscious as I am, I chose Wilmar's bid over a lower bid because of my high confidence in his ability to do the job well. Wilmar and his son were very conscientious and their team very professional. I am happy with my choice of painter.
