    We wanted to turn our old (tiny) back deck in to a much larger outdoor living space, and the front of our house was starting to look overgrown and neglected. Jeff had even more vision for what we wanted than even we did. The project(s) changed and morphed a few times, and Jeff and his crews were there every step of the way. He was always available via text/email, and made us feel like we were their only clients most of the time. I also wanted to point out just how fantastic the crews all were. Everyone was polite, tidy, and professional. They even put up with my exuberant golden retriever who couldn't wait for his friends to show up on a daily basis. The end results exceeded our wildest expectations, and we couldn't be more thrilled. The front yard gets complements often, and everyone wants a new back yard/deck like ours! I highly recommend Reflections for your next project - you certainly won't be disappointed.

    18" drop into living room that Jeff left despite his claims of caring about safety (we have 2 young children)

    We hired Jeff Skierka from Reflections Landscape and Construction of Sammamish, WA to demolish and rebuild our indoor fireplace and the surrounding area. Jeff quit our project without any warning or real reasons. (Although he did quit two days after we mentioned permits.) He failed to finish the job and left our house a dangerous construction zone, which is extremely unsafe for our two young children to be living in. The following are additional facts from our experience of working with Jeff: Safety/unfinished work: -Jeff's work appears not to be to code. The insulation he used for the chimney is not rated for fire safety (it would have melted), and it's exposed and affixed with paper tape (so it's not there permanently and the tape is an additional fire hazard). There are not enough screws in the wonderboard (nearly two feet between screws in some places - directions on the wonderboard clearly state screws should be placed every 6-8 inches), and the plywood on the roof was not even screwed in. When we asked Jeff about code, he became very defensive and yelled at us. -Jeff did not do any permitting for the project. He quit two days after we mentioned permits. -Jeff removed stairs around our fireplace (but did not rebuild them) leaving an 18" drop into the living room. -Jeff removed the chimney (but did not repair the roof), so our roof leaked. -Jeff left holes in our ceiling. -Jeff left the subfloor exposed, which is dirty and full of splinters because he pulled up flooring, but did not replace it. -Jeff damaged the insulation in the crawl space. -Jeff left debris from the demolition in our crawl space (we were told it was all going to be removed). -Jeff refused to remove the old fireplace unit from our entry (we were told it would be removed during demolition with the other debris). -Jeff left demolition debris on our front lawn for two weeks. It was only removed after we asked him repeatedly to remove it. But he still didn't remove the old fireplace unit. -Jeff's electrician overloaded a circuit (one he was specifically told not to connect to), and later he denied that he had been told not to use it. He also connected to live wires and left the our house without any explanation of the work he had done. Lack of communication skills: -Jeff does not communicate. We never knew when to expect him/his crew to show up. Several times we were told he would be at our house, but he was late (by several hours) or did not show up and did not call to tell us. When plans changed because of weather, we only knew after we contacted him. -Jeff does not listen to his clients. At our first meeting, we told him we wanted a minimal look. We also asked him to remove an unfinished column (it was splintering) and half wall adjacent to the stairs by the fireplace to open up the space. He proposed building a nine-foot wide outdoor-style fireplace. And later he claimed the column and wall removal were not part of the original project. -Jeff did not deliver architectural or conceptual designs. He drew one tiny sketch of one idea (no measurements), and when we told him again that we wanted a minimal design (as originally discussed), he didn't offer anything else. We had to draw the plans ourselves and take time to explain them to the subcontractors. -Jeff showed up at our house when the framing subcontractors were on site (they had told him not to come). He interrupted their work and tried to bully us into building his idea (without any actual design plans) instead of building what we wanted (which we had designed and discussed with the subcontractors). Jeff verbally attacked my husband so obviously that the subcontractors felt it necessary to apologize for Jeff's inappropriate behavior. (We also paid for labor time here, which was wasted by Jeff stopping work, yelling, and trying to change the design on the fly.) -Jeff charged us 20% on materials and dump fees, which he never told us he would do. This was in addition to 20% on labor. He also provided no receipts - only one invoice from a subcontractor. For a total of nearly $16,000, Jeff severely damaged our house and then walked away. And now we have to do all the work over again, since we have to fix everything he touched and finish the work ourselves. Time management: -The project was drawn out for five weeks. Only six days in those five weeks were days where work was being done. -We had two full weeks where the main part of our house was unable to be used because it was masked off and full of cement dust. Only three days in those two weeks were days where work was being done. -Jeff confirmed the install of our new fireplace unit himself, but he was unable to meet his deadline by over two weeks. We were present for this phone conversation, but Jeff denies that he confirmed the deadline with the fireplace store.

    Hi Everyone, If you're looking for a good landscape design and installation team, I highly recommend Jeff and his team at Reflections Landscaping. After interviewing multiple landscape designers, we chose Jeff at Reflections because he was easy to work with and responsive. And a few weeks later, we couldn't be happier. He has been a pleasure to work with and now we have a gorgeous backyard and I never want to leave my house. We just want to hang out in our new beautiful back yard with all the songbirds and butterflies. He's honest, extremely knowledgeable, listens well, does quality work, shows up when he says he will, and provides a good value. We had a great experience working with Jeff at Reflections. You'll love your yard after the team helps you! Email Jeff today! From Rebecca D. P.S. I was skeptical about the installing lighting when he first mentioned it and now I'm the biggest fan. The trees are so artistically lit that they become the chandeliers themselves--our lawn is gorgeous both day and night!

    After

    We had Reflections do a fireplace makeover for us. They removed an old fireplace with rock facing and a cast iron stove and then built a new hearth, installed ledgerstone facing with a masonry mantel. Jeff gave us excellent design ideas and talked us through the decisions to be made. He helped us select the stone, hearth tile, and mantel and was outstanding to work with. He listened to our ideas, made sure that the fireplace would fit well with the rest of the house, coordinated with gas/electrical contractors, and kept us informed at every step. His crew was fantastic. They were respectful, prompt, courteous, and talented. The fireplace was so much better than we even imagined, and transformed the entire room. Highest recommendation.

    We had an excellent experience with Wise Choice. Our project was two bathroom remodels, quite…read moreextensive. The only issues we had were time and occasional communication problems. Wise Choice uses a platform for selecting materials and so forth that was great in theory, rather questionable in practice, and our wires got crossed more than a few times. The time issue was simply that the projects took a bit longer than we'd planned. The time problem though was at least partly our fault (changing our minds about design, etc), and that was compounded by suppliers actually sending the wrong product on occasion, so certainly not all a Wise Choice issue. Other than that, they were great to work with, very pleasant people all around, very conscientious (cleaning up work spaces thoroughly every day), and the entire project came in under budget! We will definitely reach out to them again for our next remodel.

    We are so glad we went with Wise Choice!…read more After meeting with several contractors, my wife and I chose them to do an addition to our house. We first learned about Wise Choice through Yelp, and although we were initially nervous about choosing a contractor for such a large job (they gave us the best estimate, by far!) without a personal recommendation, we couldn't be happier with our decision. They were great to work with throughout the entire process, from architectural and engineering plans, permitting, and the actual construction. The project manager, Sergiy, and foreman, Bogdan, were very honest, helpful, and responsive every step of the way. The project was completed pretty much on budget (with only a couple of unforeseen issues outside of their control) and on time. We love the results, and several people have commented that the addition looks like it should have been there all along. We can't recommend Wise Choice highly enough!

They provided guidance, creativity, and follow-up every step of the way. Their computer-generated kitchen plans and visual images were very helpful in assuring us that the design they described is what we wanted and in the price range we were looking for. Adrian was our assigned on-site contractor. He was phenomenal to work with. His knowledge, skill, reliability, and "easy-to-work-with" personality made the process from demo to project signoff a smooth and stress-free experience. Adrian and Vered never let any unforeseen or unexpected situation alter or delay project progress. They worked together to offer solutions and resolution in a timely manner. Adrian and one or two other helpers did most of the work themselves, so we were never waiting on subcontractors. The project started on time and finished on schedule. We could not have been more pleased with the results. We are very happy to have selected Lux Design Builds and highly recommend them for your upcoming remodel.

    We hired Doru and his team at Eagle Remodel and Construction for a complete, down-to-the-studs…read moreremodel of our master bathroom, and we couldn't be happier with the result. This was my first time hiring a contractor. I had previously acted as the general contractor for our other two bathrooms, and my husband and I did those remodels ourselves, so I had a pretty good idea of what I wanted--and also plenty of lessons to learn along the way! One of the biggest advantages of working with Doru was his pricing. His quote was extremely competitive compared with other contractors in the area, some of whom quoted us 2-3 times more. We did have to manage purchasing our own cabinets, tub, tile, lighting, fixtures, etc., but that gave us the flexibility to shop at our preferred stores and save money. **A couple of lessons I learned:** Make sure you have all of your materials onsite before construction starts. There were a few times we were waiting for items I had ordered, which slowed things down. Had I used some of Doru's preferred suppliers, that probably wouldn't have happened. Also, if possible, I recommend having someone home during construction. I couldn't be home because of work, but my husband was, and that worked out well. Doru was consistently on time--sometimes even early--which is rare in the construction industry. He's also incredibly versatile and was able to handle a variety of jobs himself, including light electrical work such as changing light types and wiring and installing/replacing electrical outlets. The only time he brought in an electrician was for our heated floors because they required additional breakers in our electrical panel. And by the way, **I highly recommend heated bathroom floors!** They aren't hot; they're just comfortably warm/room temperature, which means no more freezing feet first thing in the morning. The project started with demolition, which Doru completed in just **one day**. From there, he handled the framing and coordinated his regular team of skilled subcontractors. One thing I appreciated about Doru is that he genuinely wants you to be happy with the final product. He doesn't try to push his own design preferences on you. When I asked for his opinion, he would explain the pros and cons of different options, but ultimately left the decision to me. I changed my mind a couple of times during the project--including the ceiling lighting and tub surround--and even though those changes created additional work, he made the requested changes without charging us extra. His team was excellent as well. Emmanuel, his tile professional, did an incredible job and really made the bathroom come together. He also installed our cabinets and crown molding, and his attention to detail was impressive. The drywall professional was extremely fast and efficient using Quick Set 5. We did need a second trip because of some ceiling corrections, but overall the work moved along quickly. Our project took about six weeks from start to finish, although some of that time was due to delays with materials I had selected and our family vacations. Realistically, I think the actual construction could have been completed in around four weeks if everything had been onsite and we hadn't had scheduling interruptions. What really stood out to me was Doru's follow-through. He has checked in with us multiple times since the project was completed to make sure we're still happy with everything. We are! I actually made one poor choice myself when selecting our tub faucet--it takes about 20 minutes to fill our large tub. Doru even offered to come back and replace it once I find a better faucet, which says a lot about the kind of contractor he is. **If you're looking for a highly skilled, dependable contractor at a competitive price, I would absolutely recommend Eagle Remodel and Construction.** I think they're an especially great choice if you're comfortable purchasing your own tile, cabinets, fixtures, lighting, tub, etc. and want more control over your budget and selections. If you're looking for a completely hands-off experience where you walk into a showroom, select everything through the contractor, and have them handle every purchase, a larger remodeling company may be a better fit--but you'll likely pay significantly more for that convenience. For us, Eagle Remodel and Construction was absolutely the right choice. We love our new bathroom and would hire Doru again without hesitation!

As someone who pays close attention to detail, I especially appreciated his precision and craftsmanship. I am so glad we went with him, and his pricing was fair. What stood out most was his honesty and thorough approach. We had reached out to several contractors for quotes, but Doru was the only one who took the time to measure our space accurately and fully understand what we wanted. He never pressured us into additional work and instead offered thoughtful guidance and expert recommendations. Despite working quickly, the final result was of quality and what we envisioned. I would absolutely hire Eagle Remodel again and highly recommend them to anyone looking for reliable, detail-oriented work, and people you can trust.
