My…read morebasement had flooding issues and when I tried to bring this to my elderly parents' attention, they somehow decided to finish the basement, despite the musty smell and this seasonal flooding for 20 years. I was hoping that maybe Hivex would identify this issue and maybe back me up on this point before they fully converted it to a rentable living space. But they didn't. We then got a huge rain which left visible signs of flooding and standing water on the basement floor. When I told my Dad, he said it was due to Hivex mopping the floor. I was certain that Hivex would help clear this up and attribute the water to the recent storms. They didnt--they confirmed (lied?) to my dad that it was due to their mopping a few days prior. So then they started installing the framing for the drywall, despite the smell and standing water. I knew the project was doomed at this point because once the drywall went up, that moisture would be sealed off behind it and the mold would just flourish. That's when we got the biggest storm in Spring of 2025 which resulted in catastrophic flooding of the basement, leaving zero doubt about the flooding. (This is also a common-sense issue in our area, which has heavy clay soil). We hired a basement moisture company to deal with the seasonal flooding but we had to remove the framing to install the dewatering trench at the base of the wall. At this point, they were really behind schedule. The price was outrageous. Over $80K. My friend just finished his basement and oversaw the drywall, electrical work, cabinetry, etc. He did his basement, which is larger, for around $20,000. The mark up was huge and I was really expecting more. Hivex is for people who love to spend money. Little things they missed: 1. Basement door will not lock and the GC never coordinated with the basement moisture people as to who's fault this was. I thought the GC was supposed to solve things like this and not let things fall through the cracks? 2. Ceiling fan is supposed to reverse during the cold months. This feature is broken which really sucks in the winter time, when all the warmth stays on the ceiling. 3. Faucet was really loose and I had trouble correctly tightening it. Frustrating for a few weeks as it gradually loosened and I had to keep fixing it. 4. The reverse pump for the bathroom was not even sealed. There was a visible gap on the lid of this device and the smell was AWFUL for a few weeks. My aging parents cant smell anything so they just said I was crazy. After a few weeks of this smell, they finally had someone come to seal it. This worker seemed very honest and he said it was bad they missed this. Nasty Hivex. 5. They have really bad deals and poor quality when it comes to their cabinetry and kitchen design options. (Cheap stuff designed to maximize profits). They also refuse to work with whatever company you went with for the cabinets/hardware/faucet. Again, whats the point of the GC if they arent coordinating with everyone? We went with IKEA and it was SO chaotic and horrible. Its basically an automated company at this point.

After combing through reviews for dozens of local drywall repair companies, I decided to reach out…read moreto Crisp Line Painting for a few projects around the house. Alan quickly responded through Yelp and I sent him additional photos/information about what we were looking to fix. He provided me with a detailed and reasonable estimate via email that covered the drywall repair and painting. Once I approved of the estimate, I spoke with Alan on the phone and we picked out a couple consecutive days for the repair. (He explained that certain drywall repairs need additional time to dry/cure before they can be painted.) Alan said they would confirm the evening before and Giovanni would be the one making the repairs. The project got pushed back by a day due to another big job they had to complete. (It wasn't a big deal, since I had blocked out the two days anyway.) Giovanni and an apprentice came to the house in the morning to look at each project area before loading in their equipment. It was amazing how quickly they worked and patched up the drywall. They were just about to take a break for lunch and let the repairs dry when we realized we had an issue with the paint. At the beginning of the repairs, I said I would be responsible for providing the paint. The former owners of the home left labeled cans of all the house paints for us, so I thought everything would be fine. Unfortunately, the ceiling paint for the largest drywall area was nowhere to be found! Giovanni was fantastic and cut out a small section for a color match, even offering to pick up the paint. He went above and beyond for something that was 100% my fault. When they returned, they painted everything carefully. Giovanni is so professional and a perfectionist! Everything looks fantastic and we are thrilled with the work. If I ever have additional drywall repairs or painting projects, I will definitely contact Crisp Line Painting again!

Alan and his team did a great job with that, so I didn't hesitate to give them a call when I had more work that needed to be done. This time, I needed some drywall repaired in a few rooms. Once again, Alan came out to see what needed to be done. Once we approved the quote, he sent his lead painter, Giovani, to do the job. He showed up on time and got straight to work. He did a great job with the repairs. You would never know that the holes were ever there. Once the job was complete he made sure to clean up. This is a great company and I definitely recommend them!

All cut lines were perfectly straight for ease of replacing the cutouts once the fireblock work was completed. The team worked very efficiently and paid full attention to detail. The finish work was equally impressive as they taped, spackled and sanded over two days, finishing and painting on the 3rd. The work was done so effectively and efficiently that you cannot tell that the walls were ever cut open including matching the existing paint perfectly. I plan to use Oscar for all projects in the future including some modifications needed in the master bedroom. I highly recommend OJC construction as their work is of the highest quality I've seen, including the original work done by the builder.

0/10 - do not recommend to anyone for anything…read more Terrible experience with this contractor. They were hired to do tile flooring in our kitchen. A crew came out Jan 24th, "completed" the job in 1 day. Tiles were terrible cut, grout was cracking and falling out, trim was barely hanging on. Horrendous job. After much back and forth, they finally came out 5 weeks to fix their terrible work. I was told they would come out to do the work and it would take 1-2 days. It ended up taking them a week, Monday Tuesday Wednesday Thursday Friday, to re-do the job. Some days were no call no shows, leaving us with plywood from the base construction of the building as our kitchen floors for that week. The job is still not completed as there are still areas of the flooring unfinished. Absolutely terrible work, and even worse customer experience. Would not recommend to anyone looking to have any kind of work done.
