Daryl requested photos and a description of the issue which we discussed in depth.

I hired this company for mold remediation and was very disappointed. The crew on-site was polite…read moreand super nice, but the process did more damage than the work itself. I was never told my built-ins would be completely removed, I only discovered it after the fact. Had I known, I could have arranged for proper removal, but instead they were torn out in a way that left them unsalvageable, costing me thousands to replace. Afterward, the company pointed to the notes fine print rather than acknowledging the lack of communication. If you use them, insist on a clearly explained scope of work. If you rely on professionals to help you navigate confusing home repairs, like myself, these aren't your guys. Update to response: First, I want to be clear that I don't believe Adam or the company ever acted with any intent to mislead me or cause harm. I think this situation came down to a lack of communication that unfortunately left me in a difficult position. About 90% of what Adam said in his response is true, but none of it directly addresses my actual concern. The real issue is whether the company made sure I fully understood the scope of work. Perhaps Adam thought... what idiot would not see it was obvious that the entire built-ins would need to be removed? Hi... it's me, I'm the idiot and truly I had no idea. I thought only a portion of my ceiling would be affected. Given the huge difference between what I understood and what actually happened, I believe the company should have explained this much more clearly. Like many homeowners, I rely on professionals to explain the scope of work in plain terms. I think that's a reasonable expectation. Adam is correct with my quote below but he left out the part where I explained that my issue was solely that I didn't know the built-ins were being removed. This was never clearly communicated to me, nor was I given the opportunity to remove them properly myself. Because of that, I feel my ability to make informed decisions was taken away. I only reached out to Adam directly later, after another contractor told me the closet could have been saved and that the removal was "unnecessarily destructive." Whether that's true or not, I'll never know. because I wasn't given the chance to find out. To clarify, the note about the built-ins wasn't hidden in "fine print," but it was only mentioned once in the "Other Notes" section. It was never discussed verbally, by email, or over the phone, and it wasn't included in the detailed action items. I don't think a single mention buried in a notes section qualifies as meaningful disclosure, especially when no one pointed it out or explained its implications. Perhaps Adam does. Lastly, the other points raised, like the quality of the closet materials, water damage, or insurance support, are not relevant to my concern. My issue has always only been about the lack of clear communication regarding the scope of work. Thank you.

1 star - Would Not Recommend…read more We hired this company to handle mitigation work in our closet following a roof issue. While they were able to complete the job quickly, the overall experience was deeply disappointing and I would not recommend them. The Good: They were responsive and able to get to the job quickly, which matters in a mitigation situation. The Bad: The work was messy and careless. Sealant ended up on furniture that was well outside the containment area, and when we raised the issue, the team showed little accountability or willingness to take ownership of the mistake. The drywall removal was also poorly executed. Rather than making clean cuts, they tore it out recklessly, damaging surrounding drywall that was otherwise in good condition -- creating additional work and cost for the rebuild team. The Dealbreaker: My biggest concern was their resistance to providing dry logs. Our insurance company required them, and I had to essentially argue with this company just to get documentation they should have readily provided. In an insurance claim situation, this kind of pushback is completely unacceptable and added unnecessary stress to an already difficult process. In summary -- fast response, but poor workmanship, little accountability, and a frustrating lack of cooperation on critical documentation.

My experience with Magdan left me with serious concerns and a lot of unanswered questions. What…read morebegan as a home renovation project became increasingly stressful due to ongoing issues with communication, billing clarity, and expectations around the scope of work. Several things that came up during the process did not sit right with me and led to a breakdown in trust. Despite efforts to address these concerns directly and respectfully, i was unable to reach a resolution that felt transparent or fair. The situation eventually escalated into a legal dispute, which has taken a significant emotional and financial toll on my family. We are facing the very real fear of losing our home while trying to sort everything out based off of a fraudulent mechanics lien . In our experience, key issues included: * Unclear and inconsistent communication about project scope and costs * Billing that we felt lacked transparency and raised questions we could not get clearly answered * Work expectations that shifted from what we originally discussed * Difficulty resolving concerns despite repeated attempts to communicate * Escalation to legal action rather than collaborative problem-solving I understand every project and client relationship is different, but based on our experience, i strongly STRONGLY , STROOOOOONGLY encourage others to document everything, ask detailed questions, and pay close attention to anything that feels unclear before signing contracts or making payments. This review reflects my personal experience, and i hope it helps others proceed with awareness and caution.

It all started with Adrian coming to my house the day after I spoke with him and he spent three hours measuring the outside of the house. He brought plenty of samples of siding colors and made us feel unrushed, as he patiently listened to us and gave us input on the products available. He provided us with a timely and detailed proposal to do the complete job, which included a detailed listing of all costs of materials and labor. Once we accepted the proposal, the Magdan construction crew arrived a few weeks later and went to work. Adrian introduced me to the foreman, Jose, who kept me informed of the crews progress and was available to answer any questions and address any concerns I had. The crew did quality work and kept a clean and organized work site at my home. The work was complete in a little over a week and the results were outstanding! My home exterior looks great! I highly recommend Magdan Construction!

If you happened to see it, please disregard it. This review is for Tom, the owner. He reached out and asked me to give him a call, which I did.

It's rare to find such a hands-on, genuine owner, and I would gladly do business with him (though hopefully I won't need to!). Thank you, Tom, for your understanding.
