"Cleaned up all construction debris. Very responsive to my concerns."

"As expected, there was a long delay between signing a contract and work beginning. This was not the fault of the contractor --- material availability since COVID was the obvious factor here. G.A. Chott was about 'middle of the road' in terms of quotes we received for our kitchen. We had quotes that were 25% less and quotes that were tens of thousands more. Ultimately we felt that the detail in the proposal materials and the professionalism of Darryll (owner) made G.A. Chott the best fit for us. With the work now complete, I do feel we made the correct decision in having them perform the work. In the end, the project wound up being about 14% over the initial estimate. It is important to note that some of this was due to changes made by us, the customer. A good portion, however, was bringing electrical up to code. In our opinion this would have been easily discoverable during the estimate by viewing the breaker box, so I was a little disappointed by this. From demo day to completed kitchen was right at 2 months. That said, after 5 weeks we had a mostly functional kitchen (appliances and cabinets in place, cardboard countertops). Work then paused until countertops were ready; this delay is not G.A. Chott's doing, but certainly something to plan for regardless of who you go with. Material quality is midgrade per my research --- better than box store and a bit below high end. This was in line with the price point as compared to other estimates. Overall we've been happy with G.A. Chott, their staff and quality. We would hire them for additional large projects, but would take what we've learned into that scenario, do a bit more research into code compliance (as compared to when our house was built) and ensure everything possible is accounted for in the initial quote."

"Tom has been great to work with.  He was very responsive when we first contacted him and was able to setup a meeting time flexible with our schedule.  We love the design he put together and he's very open to adjustments and scaling back or segmenting the project to fit within our budget!

"Gary Kimberlin's team did a great job for us with a series of small projects which were too big for a handyman, but apparently too small for most contractors. Most of the general contractors we contacted through Angie's List never never got back to us, but Gary treated us as valued customers from the start. Gary himself contacted us to provide a bid, and his responsiveness was exceptional. He spent about an hour with us taking measurements and discussing what we wanted to accomplish. Maybe we could have found a cheaper bid out there somewhere, but we were pleased with the punctuality and quality of the work, so I don't regret a cent that we spent. We had a series of small tasks which Gary's team performed over a couple of days. They arrived and departed when they said they would. First, they installed roll insulation in the crawl space under our living room. Rather than stapling the insulation in place, they recommended a slightly more expensive hanging system which allows the insulation to be removed and then put back without damaging it. Since additional remodeling is always a possibility, we appreciated the foresight on this issue. Second, we had planned to install a skylight in the living room, but Gary suggested can lighting instead, and I'm glad he did. Any time you punch a hole in the roof, it could leak, no matter how well you seal the edges. Can lighting was less expensive and created no possibility of leaks. We weren't happy with the first set of can lights Gary's team installed. Without complaint, Gary's team uninstalled them and replaced them with lights that we could swivel to highlight our artwork on the wall. We appreciated the team's flexibility and good attitude about the change. Third, the most complex portion of the job was repairing a wall and floor that had been damaged with pet urine. Gary's team removed the damaged baseboard, cut away the damaged carpet and pad, repainted the wall, and installed a new baseboard. This left a hole in the carpet which we covered with a throw rug, which was the solution of our choice. The repairs to the wall are seamless -- you'd never know the work had been done. Gary didn't press us to replace the whole carpet, which we weren't ready to do because our beloved older pet was still with us. The solution worked -- the smell is gone, and we didn't spend more than we wanted to. We'll complete that remodel another day. Last but not least, Gary's team did a thorough job cleaning and repairing the gutters. Small sections of guttering had come loose, which they refastened to the roofline. The one part of the remodel that didn't go as I had hoped pertained to a roofing issue. We had a gap in the soffit panels under the eaves. We had been concerned that a squirrel could climb through the hole and nest under the roof. Gary's team assessed the roofline and said that the hole in the soffit didn't communicate through to the attic, as far as they could tell, so the squirrels couldn't use it as a gateway. Unfortunately, that conclusion turned out to be incorrect. Six months later, we had to pay a wildlife control company to get squirrels out of our attic. The animal control team determined that the entry point was the hole in the soffit and installed a sheet metal cover for it. While the squirrel removal and roof repair were expensive, I don't fault Gary's team for mis-diagnosing the issue. Two other contractors/handymen had previously looked at the same problem and reached the same conclusion as Gary did, so obviously it was tricky. (We had had squirrels under the roof in a previous home, so I was concerned about this issue.) We look forward to work with Gary Kimberlin Construction again on a future remodel."
