Deck framing/Load bearing wall removal

Rob has done 2 projects for me. He is punctual and considerate. Also with both projects one thing was clear that Rob always ensured that I understood the scope and why things were being done a certain way.

He always made sure he went the extra mile when it came to safety and whenever extra steps were required he was there to execute them.

I was highly impressed with his work both times and he is my carpenter of choice if I have any woodwork projects.

I would definitely say his pricing is reasonable specially considering the quality of work you get.

What could this company do to improve their services?
Sometime Rob seems to be in a rush to get things done and get out that when he tends to cut 1-2 corners to get things done !!

Removal of load bearing wall

Robert is a very thoughtful contractor that focuses on really ensuring you understand the details of the job. He contacted us frequently during the project to ensure we were informed of all aspects and decisions that needed to be made.

Robert did a great job and I would definitely recommend him. His fees are very reasonable and he did a great job.

Garage - framing and sheathing

10++ on carpentry skills, communication and attention to detail. Rob and Dave did a fantastic job framing and sheathing a 14x20 garage. Everything was level and square and all cuts and fits were perfect (as any great carpenter would ensure). They showed up on time everyday and finished the project by the date promised in the contract. Rob is fantastic communicator and provides regular updates on the progress of the project. I definitely plan to hire him again for interior projects I have planned in the spring. Thanks again Rob!

False tread/riser install, various trim

I gave Robert a rave review nearly a month ago on the promise that he would return to finish a final capping on my stairs. I guess he got so much business from my review that he's too busy to bother.

So, if you hire this man, don't pay him until you are completely satisfied regardless of his word that it'll be done.

Our stair capping is crooked and he was going to make another. Doesn't bother returning when he says so.

Nov 16 Response to Robert: Robert, I am simply stating the facts. I gave you a great review because I trusted that you would come back and fix the flaw that you acknowledged. You were very nice and very accommodating during the job and hence, I jumped the gun. I was the first to give a review, and it was a good one. Since then, you've had many jobs and have neglected to fulfill your promise. Instead of realizing your neglect you threaten me with legal action. I paid you the job in FULL plus EXTRA. The extra work you did was great, but it wasn't something I had asked for, or needed, but I still paid you for the extra time. It was a $600 - $700 job and I believe we paid you an additional $400. Percentage-wise, that's huge. It's a shame that you won't simply just complete this last task. We know you do good work, I just wish you didn't abandon us after, I believe, my post gave you lots of work.

If you feel you must take legal action, I am sorry for that. I am not slandering you. I am not calling you a bad person. I am not saying your work is bad. Just simply that you we paid you in full for the job on your promise to finish it correctly and that you haven't. During our job, you had trouble with transportation and we understood, but a phone call would also be helpful if you can't make it.

My original review was 9 (on his promise). Then 2 (on not delivering his promise). Now 0 (upon a threat of legal action for me simply stating the facts).

These reviews are easily changed and instead of just fixing the cap, Robert threatens. He acknowledges that I gave him a great review so what could be my reason for changing it other than he didn't deliver a promise? Think about it.

Company Response

This is a complete false attack on my reputation considering they have had problems with a carpenter that had been fired for lousy work. If this post is not removed I will consider legal action against Ms. Walker with all facts disclosed in the actions. The facts represented are not accurate and contradict her initial posting of satisfactory work.
