I hired Matthew for an emergency macerator pump replacement. He was responsive and available when…read moreother local firms were booked out, which I sincerely appreciated, to his credit. However, I cannot recommend his business based on the quoting and final billing miscommunications. The project vastly exceeded the initial 4-hour estimate, ending up at over 8 hours of labor without any mid-job notification that the scope or time was doubling. Additionally, I was charged two separate $150 site visit fees ($300 total) for a single job that was split into multiple visits for their scheduling convenience. Despite a verbal agreement to provide the main parts 'at cost,' since I already had them ready to order, the final invoice included significant markups on basic cleaning and truck supplies like towels and buckets. When I reached out to discuss these discrepancies in good faith, suggesting compromise, the response was defensive and included immediate threats of late fees on a first-time invoice that was actively being contested. PitStop reduced the invoice by $50 as "good faith". After I itemized out a compromise between what I was led to expect and what was invoiced, I was ghosted. After waiting a few weeks and following up with no response, I chose to pay the invoice in full simply to close the matter, but I strongly advise other property owners to get a binding written contract and a capped labor quote upfront before any work begins.

His pricing is competitive. You can't beat Pit Stop Plumbing! Trust me; I've never found a better, more competent contractor. Thank you.

Joe was my contact person, he was responsive and answered all my questions about the estimate, and what the process and the final results would be.

It doesn't matter if the project is large or small, Tim and his team will be there to complete the work timely and professionally.

First of all, this contractor will only call you back if he thinks the job your looking to have…read moredone is a quick pay to put a buck in his pocket. He didn't call my sister back after she left 3 messages asking for the free quote that he advertised. He picks only job where he can mark materials way up to make more on a job. Second, when I hired him, I was leery about his professionalism and skill set from the beginning due to his lack of education and professional training yet gave him the job anyways since he undercut our family contractor by quite a bit. About 2 months into the project, I began getting calls from the material suppliers indicating that Tim (he business owner) had not paid for the materials for my job. There were kitchen cabinets, driveway materials, lumber and even electrical components. I WAS GETTING CONTACTED BY THE VENDORS who were looking for payment from Tim Bounds. I reviewed my contract with Bounds Building and Remodeling and just as I knew it read when I signed it, my contract was for the job's labor AND materials. I finished paying the second half of my contract 3 weeks before he even completed the work (the work he did still has issues but there is NO way I am ever letting this guy back in my house, I have been calling new contractors to fix his work) This guy, Tim Bounds, obviously doesn't pay his vendors and his customers end up feeling the stress of his lacking professionalism. I wouldn't hire this creep again if my life depended on it.

When compared with other contractors and bids, I found that they offer exceptional value. The Roots team listens extremely well. They take ownership in all aspects of the project, even when it could be argued it was someone else's problem. I REALLY appreciate that. Once we talked about a task needed, it always got done.

The crew did a fine job, but you never really knew how much they were charging per hour, as it was always hidden in the final estmate. I finally found out the hourly on a project where they were labor only. They sent 3 guys, one of which stood around until needed as a runner. Bottom line, if you feel that $112/hr. is a fair wage, then disregard this review.

July came and he said he was running 2 weeks behind, so I assumed the end of July. August came and is almost over and 2 weeks ago I ran into him at Home Depot, he said I was next on the list. No materials no shingles show up. Now almost at the end of August and I went and ordered the material and found another contractor. I called Don to let him know and he was kinda rude and more worried about whos doing the work. Not apologetic at all, and said I was "next on his list" good luck with that and hung up. Now I've reached out to get my $500 dollar deposit back, so I guess I'll get to see if Don does the right thing?

DJ was able to arrange an estimate the following day and arrived promptly on the day and time agreed upon. After viewing the project, DJ offered his advice and expertise on how to best achieve our desired results. He said he would provide a detailed quote the following day and true to his word he did so. We hired DeDe Construction & DJ provided a start date and a detailed day by day timeline of the work to be completed. DJ and his partner Oleg arrived on time each day and went directly to work, completing the daily tasks expertly, efficiently and with attention to detail. From precise cuts on tile, to double waterproofing appropriate areas in the bathrooms, they always strove to doing the best possible job in every aspect of their work. Communication during the project was exemplary and we were shown the progress of their endeavors during each phase of the remodel, so that we were satisfied with the quality of the work performed. During our entire interaction with DJ and Oleg, they were always friendly, courteous and respectful to us and our home, cleaning up at the end of each day. DJ even voluntarily picked up several items we had purchased from various stores that were too large for our vehicle, with no qualms about doing so. DJ and Oleg completed the remodel of the three bathrooms ahead of schedule and the quality of the work, of which my expectations were high, was better than I expected. They showed first-rate dedication and workmanship providing prime, aesthetically prominent results. I would highly recommend DeDe Construction for any home improvements due to the aforementioned reasons, plus their first rate craftsmanship and they being all around nice young men. They are now our "go to" artisans for any future projects.
