DQ provided the most reasonable quote at a reasonable time. Devis was incredibly responsive, communicative, and respectful. He was reluctant to provide advice on paint colors, but it was clear we didn't like the color I picked out for my living room. After some deliberation, a new color was picked and his team repainted the living room at no extra charge. Another important detail is that I'm pretty handy myself, and most contractors I've dealt with were generally dismissive of women who know a thing or two about home repairs, tools, and the work it entails. Not Devis. He and his partners were great - they listened, considered my input, and I never felt dismissed in any way. The work took a bit longer than expected due to material shortage but the end result was beautiful. I'm absolutely going to use QD for my kitchen renovation soon. Hire these guys - you won't regret it!

I could not agree more with Nick's review. Even 3 years later, not one thing has changed and I was…read morein complete denial until I experienced everything he described. I went through it during the construction process first hand and I'm still dealing with them almost a year after signing my contract. I wish I had never done this. I was constantly stressed out and this was and is still a completely awful experience. Whoever gave this company 5 stars was clearly paid to, probably so they wouldn't have a 1 star rating. I honestly don't know how Frank can legitimately run a business like this. Not one person working for him will care about you, your family, or your situation. All they want is your money and they will say anything to get it. A perfect description, as Nick said, is over promised expectations and undelivered results. That should be their slogan. If you do choose to go with them, be prepared to: 1. Overpay for your house by thousands of dollars for pretty shitty work and low quality materials. It's what Frank calls "affordable". Do your research and the math on the outrageous upgrade costs. You will realize you're getting screwed. 2. Have zero communication between the site coordinator, operations manager, construction manager, and the construction team... you might as well kiss your blueprints goodbye because what you sign won't be followed and the things listed as standard features in your contract won't be included. I know this sounds crazy and you're saying to yourself, "how can that be?", but it really is true. 3. Have plenty of incompetent subcontractors working on your house. 75% of the guys are still learning how to do their jobs or are in training and the construction manager is never there to supervise anyone. This is because Frank is so cheap he's not willing to pay for people who actually know what they are doing. I am afraid for what is behind the walls, seriously. The day we closed on our house, we had no hot water and our dishwasher wouldn't turn on. How bad could it be, right? After being present for the necessary repairs, we found out that our hot and cold water lines were connected together and the water line to our refrigerator had never been done at all. The main electrical wiring to our dishwasher had been nearly cut in half and could have started a fire if the dishwasher was able to turn on. I thought you're supposed to have peace of mind building a new house... not so much. One more example, our neighbor's house was built 6 months before ours. Their sump pump failed a weekend when they were out of town. They came home to 2 feet of water in their basement, everything was ruined, including the furnace, and they did not have flood insurance. They had quite a battle getting that taken care of with BH. 4. Deal with their greedy real estate agent/site coordinator, Maryellen Blair. She is a complete bitch and has a serious conflict of interest with this type of home purchase. Unfortunately, she is the only tether you have to your house after you've signed the contract so get ready to deal with her for 4+ months. Be sure to have your own real estate agent with you for every single meeting. I would highly suggest one with new construction experience who will abdicate for you because Maryellen is a snake in this industry. I could not stand this woman, by the last walk through I wouldn't even speak to her, let alone shake her hand. 5. Be lied to...constantly. We were rushed into making decisions and signing off on things that were not correct. If we didn't, then we were told that we are holding up the building process. This is a complete lie because they already have their own agenda (and blueprints apparently) and the time frame in which you make your decisions has little effect on that when they are just starting to build the house. What they don't want you to know is they are rushing you so you don't look at the details. They are vague for a reason, which allows them to get away with shit behind your back and still make you pay for it at the end of the day. Clearly, I am very unhappy and I do not recommend BH to anyone. Everything I've had to go through has been a fight because nothing is ever done right the first time and no one cares about my house. I paid more than market value for it, so I've literally thrown my money out the window and I won't be going get it back anytime soon. No amount of remedies has made up for what this builder has and continues to put me through. I don't care about his reputation in the Capital Region because it is a bunch of bullshit. It is unfortunate that more people don't voice their experiences to warn others from going through this fate. He should not be allowed to lie to people and use and abuse them like they are garbage, it is absolutely disgraceful. Save yourself the aggravation and build with or buy from someone else...

The last time we had our driveway sealed (which is a large driveway with cracks, lawn overgrowing…read morethe sides, and in places weeds growing through it) we had a company come and they did a fantastic job. They did a thorough job edging it, they filled in the cracks, and they pulled the weeds. They also charged us almost half of what Egan charged us now, though that was in 2020. That company doesn't appear to be around now, so we looked online for reviews and after getting several went with Egan. Their estimate seemed detailed enough (we had also asked for other quotes to do other things besides sealcoating) but when it came time to actually lock it in we discovered that the low number wasn't the correct number. We had to add another number too, which made the job a lot more (though still less than the others). Arranging a time to get it done took four calls spread over several days, but they finally showed up. And their work was less than spectacular. Yes, the driveway is mostly black. But they missed some spots along the edges; they didn't bother to fill in any cracks; they actually applied the tar over weeds in situ (sort of like those online pictures of highway striping crews painting right over roadkill) leaving black plants sticking up; and they didn't edge everything properly first and part of their tar was just brushed on dirt which was on top of the driveway which instantly peeled off a day later. Now, to be fair if I had to do this all myself (not a fun job) I doubt I could have done it much better. But for $1400 we expected more. In the future I will make sure the contract clearly specifies crack filling, full edging, etc. Since their quote was the lowest and most of my driveway now has sealcoat on it I can live with it. But I will likely look elsewhere next time as you get what you pay for. Maybe our previous company spoiled us with amazing service?
