"I needed stucco repair work on an old chimney (and other spots). Grady was meticulous and thoughtful on what approaches and materials would work. Throughout the project they allocated sufficient time for each treatment to cure and inspected the work before proceeding to the next step. Grady started the project with no money down and only required ongoing payments for materials until the project was well underway. The final payment was due only after they did a final inspection. Total project cost was also below other bids."

"Mark and his team did a beautiful work on our kitchen and bathroom. At first we just wanted to remodel our kitchen only but after seeing final product we let him to design and renovate one of our bathrooms. He turn our soaking tub into walk in shower with sliding glass doors.his entire team was always punctual and they definitely know what they're doing.they had answers to all of our questions. In overall we are extremely happy and will alway recommend him to our friends."

"I had numerous bids from several local and national companies. Bids came in from $20,000 to $5,000. I chose Window Depot after a very good conversation with Rick. He took the time to explain everything Window Depot would be doing. Rick, on the sales side, was very personable and knowledgeable. Summer, on the operations side, was very helpful. Cory and his assistant were prompt, efficient and good. Everything was done on time or earlier! The install job was excellent! The coil wrap job was superb! The windows, LowE, Argon, Double Hung was excellent! I could not be happier.            "

The original plan was for Diana Construction to do a full remodeling of my Master Bathroom (MBth), as well as a Half Bath (HBth).  The HBth was so-so in condition to start with, but the MBth had sorely needed help since the day I had bought the place.  I had decided back then that when I did have a remodeling it would have marked improvements for my needs (such as a shower with ceiling-high tile, and doors & shower spray high enough to handle a near 6-ft guy without him having to stoop deeply; this also included new chair-height toilets for comfort).  The DC contractor representative, Pete Rivera, walked me through the separate contracts for both rooms, and using the Angie?s list deal for the MBth.  Later he drew up a similar albeit scaled down version of the contract for the HBth.  I need to repeat here that the original Angie?s List deal was meant for bathroom work, and was so applied to the MBth work.  The upgrades and additional requirements in the MBth were what raised to cost so; also the HBth was done as a completely separate contract.  

1. Master Bath:  The work on the MBth included removal of pretty much everything. The team nicely gutted the place to start from scratch (while carefully remaining within the assigned dimensions of that room, in accordance with strict HOA rules).  The team rebuilt the flooring (set in mortar) to equal the old flooring, and then added a layer of dura-rock (tile backer) for my tub/shower to reach the ceiling (for later installation of the tiles themselves.  After the tiling and painting, a cast-iron tub brought up and installed with a tall set of sliding doors.  To make the bath even more special, I had DC install a niche (also tiled) in the middle of the shower wall.  Great for placing shampoo and other items!  To top it off ? and to assist me in maneuvering in the shower with some stability, Pete added a combination short grab-bar & shelf for bath items. My bathroom now has a vanity sporting a granite top this time, with recessed ceiling lights, a larger custom all-wood medicine cabinet, and an additional larger wooden wall cabinet over the new toilet.  Finally, an old rickety bathroom closet was revitalized with new open shelving plus a built-in cabinet below with its own granite top for show and practicality.  In the end, this bathroom was transformed from the poor example it was.  At a mere 52 sqft, it's not like those huge palatial bathrooms you?d typically see in ads, but the effort done within that fixed space was beautiful to me!

2. Half-Bath:  As described above, the HBth work was a scaled down version of the MBth.  Like the MBth, the DC team installed tiling, fresh paint, and cabinetry (scaled down of course) with a new sink, faucet, mirror, a beautiful lighting fixture and again a chair-height toilet.  I?ll be adding a little set of shelves myself, over the toilet, but this bathroom has turned out to be a pretty little package.

Concluding remarks: When all was done, I now have a gorgeous pair of bathrooms!  I admittedly wasn't thrilled that the final costs incurred were a few factors above the original Angie?s Deal; but I fully understand that this was something to be expected, given the fact that I had tacked on additional work to this contract; plus, I had very much wanted to upgrade the quality of both bathrooms.  So I accepted that some of the items required for this task would not come cheap, but they will in the long run give great value and are built to last (e.g., cast-iron tub beats cheapo fiberglass anytime).  The DC people were doing really hard work (tearing up the old tile and mortared flooring, cutting and setting tiles, and hauling that iron tub up three floors), but all acted like pros.  Pete Rivera proved to be an excellent employer and manager ? smart, experienced, with a good eye for décor, and not afraid to get his hands dirty or banged up.  I am impressed!  In the future, I believe there may come the opportunity for more work on my place ? and so I?ll keep DC on my speed dial (and of course, keep an eye out for any Angie?s List deals for that later day).

"As Tim and his crew left the house after the kitchen update was complete, Tim said, "This is the way it's supposed to be".  Truer words were never spoken.  My experience over the years with a variety of contractors, "handy people" and self proclaimed experts have been pretty awful.  They make for good stories but not a satisfied homeowner.
Tim came for the original estimate on time and full of excellent ideas.  His suggestions made my vision of what I wanted come to life.  He built a beautiful cabinet beside my stove.  The upper part is open with beadboard backing and the lower part has 3 big drawers.  It's perfect and has made my kitchen so much easier to work in.  He installed a beadboard wall and beautiful red counter tops.  He also crowned all the existing cabinets to match the one he had built (his idea).  Perfect.  He also suggested putting in a new receptacle on the beadboard wall.  Who could say "no" to that???  He fixed an existing cabinet that had never been installed correctly (see "handy people and self procalaimed experts above).
It was the little things that also made a big difference to me: installing a pot rack correctly and securely, hanging a shelf right where I wanted it and making certain the drawers closed correctly.  The list could go on.
Tim and his crew came when they said they were coming, did what they set out to do, presented themselves in a very professional manner and cleaned up everything before they left.  I was at home for a good deal of the work and the team consistently consulted with me about little details (where to put the shelves so my dishes fit perfectly, would I like ALL white receptacles installed throughout the kitchen...etc).  As Tim said, "This is the way it's SUPPOSED to be".
Pictures of my beautiful updated kitchen are on Tim's website.  Take a look and see for yourself.
