We hired Crystal Soda Blast to remove a toxic material that a foundation company installed on our…read morestem walls in the garage. The toxic fumes were unbearable. Brian came right away and gave us so many helpful suggestions such us using fireblock to fill all the gaps in the ceiling in the garage. He then sent one of his crew members to come in and remove the toxic product inside and around the garage. He didn't use any chemicals to remove the material off the concrete. A vacuum was attached to the blade the entire time to minimise amount of dust released into the garage. For 12 days we were living in a toxic environment, stressing every day, couldn't sleep; but after Crystal Soda Blast removed this toxic material off the walls, we were finally able to relax and not worry about this problem anymore. Thank you Brian! Can't thank you enough. I highly, highly recommend this company!

The crew that came out to do the work was hard-working and professional, but they were plagued by…read moreequipment failures that delayed the project. And then they charged us for their own equipment failures. Also, they came out to look at our floor before offering a quote. The person who came out barely looked at it and said it should take two days. The damage and old glue on the floor was obviously visible, but then they said that because of the hidden factors it was going to take four days instead of 2, so the project ended up costing us twice as much as what they quoted. In addition, they showed us a color booklet and said we could select any color stain from it. We selected one, but then at the very last minute on the day of staining they said they "couldn't find" that color, used a different color, and then charged us for the original color anyway.

So I called again and again about once a week, so far no one answers the phone calls from me. They probably don't want to do the job, who knows what the reasons might be??? Just very un-responsive and unreliable. A total waste of time.

Contessa Metalworks handled railings for our custom home. They were a pleasure to work with. Paul…read moredid a great job walking us through our options, and took the lead on a number of design points that wouldn't have occurred to us, or which we thought would have been cost-prohibitive. He was competitively priced with other contractors we considered -- indeed, less expensive than some -- while offering additional details in the work we probably couldn't have gotten from another team, at least not easily. His personal attention to detail, something we've found all too often lacking in the construction industry, was very much appreciated. The only thing I could offer as an area they could have improved on is timeliness. The work was completed much later than Paul had promised; installation of the railings held up our final inspection, enough that we had to pay for another year of building permit, and delayed our move-in by a couple of months. That said, the end result was worth the wait, and by engaging the company on the project earlier in the process, a delay like that should not have much impact, if any. As the well-known triangle goes, we got "quality" and "price", so it was not too surprising that "on time" got the short end of the stick. And for us, that was a fine trade-off to make, all said and done. We have a few more "finish" details that using a metal installation is an option, and while we haven't made our final decision, most likely Contessa is going to get the call to fabricate the pieces for those details as well. We're looking forward to working with them again.

Ben said he could design it, even though my front door is in a turret and involves curvature. He designed the railing and the support for the awning to match (incorporating flowers and embellishments to mirror my garden), and added a sheet metal roof (nicely powder coated) with a subtle gutter to replace the one that had to be removed to attach the awning. His workers were great and the front door area of my 1929 Tudor has been greatly improved due to this project. It was a bit of a leap of faith to take and I'm glad I did it.
