Excel Maintenance Solutions Co

Oscar and his team of contractors were amazing. They did a beautiful, complete, remodel of my kitchen. We went over the plans several times before and demolition was done and he even had the cabinet installer come over, twice, and measure to make sure the install was perfect. If there was a correction, or if something that I wasn't happy with, he had it taken care of within a few days. Everyone was, for the most part, on time for their scheduled appointments. Oscar is a gem and I was very lucky to find him. Once you meet him you will know exactly what I mean. If you have the opportunity to work with him, take it, you won't be sorry.

Oscar was quick to pick up the vision I had for this project, just as he had been with the kitchen, which he remodeled a couple of years ago. He offered suggestions about the kinds of materials that were needed and meticulously ensured that the work his crew did was done well and completely. The tile work is particularly beautiful. I would recommend Oscar for any kind of renovation or remodeling work.

Iâ ve known Oscar for a year now - it was around this time last year when I first posted a remodel job for my 45 year old childhood home. It was a sensitive task for my entire family - my mom had recently died leaving my 80+ year old dad alone in our family home that had not really been upgraded on the inside in 45 years. We had decided that me and my own family would move there to be with my father, but the home needed significant upgrades before that could happen (primarily full kitchen and 3 bathroom remodeled). Not knowing where to begin, I posted the job on Angieâ s List. Oscar reached out. We met with him. We met with 3 other contractors. My biggest concern was that I did not yet live with my dad, therefore I wanted someone whom I felt I could trust being here at the home and working alongside my dad. My first impression was that Oscar was so warm, friendly, and fun to be around; he immediately put me at ease. He treated my dad like he was his own father. He was SO patient with us and empathetic to our situation that some changes were hard for us, and he facilitated communication that was necessary in dealing with my dadâ s wants, needs and ideas versus my own wants, needs and budgetary concerns. He also had to deal with my husband and my brother who both work in the industry and who can be extremely opinionated and annoying. Nothing really ruffled his feathers, which in turn, kept me calm. If an issue arose, before he spoke with me he already had an idea how to resolve the issue and he could always speak to me calmly about it. Since I could not be around on a daily basis, he was good at communicating with me and making sure I knew what was going on and getting my input on any decisions that needed to be made. Every worker that Oscar brought to our home was not only very skilled at their particular trade, but was also extremely courteous, professional and respectful toward my father. We met so many talented, friendly, professional, punctual and hard working tradesmen through our project with Oscar. They were prompt, cleaned up after themselves and they got the job done (and done well). Even when we entered quarantine with Covid - a situation that brought me great worry with what my elderly father could be exposed to - Oscar and his worker who had been working on both upstairsâ bathrooms at the time - took pains to make sure we were comfortable with continued work, the worker was always masked, made sure to have his hand sanitizer on him, and completed the job as quickly and efficiently and beautifully as possible. The scope of work expanded over time - in total, Oscarâ s team completed a full kitchen remodel that included the tear down of the old materials, installation of new cabinetry, countertops, relocating appliances, electrical and plumbing work, as well as the partial removal of a wall/entryway into the kitchen. His team completed a stunning remodel of the powder room including a tile chair rail and tiled accent wall and flooring, along with updated plumbing. Two bathrooms upstairs were also remodeled, one of which included a wall removal, shower tile, floor tile, updated plumbing, lighting, cabinetry and countertops throughout; and in the other bathroom, the installation of a new bathtub, plumbing, shower tile, tile flooring and cabinetry and countertops. Other random tasks completed by Oscar and his team included updated electrical, installation of ceiling fans, paint, moulding work, drywall, water heater replacement, addition of heater vents, good grief - you name it, and we had it done here in some capacity! My own family has now finally moved here. There is something special about having my old childhood home brought back to life which would not have been possible without Oscar and the work of his team. I think my mom would have been really happy with Oscarâ s work on her beloved home. I know we are!

Weâ ve all heard horror stories about contractors who undertake household renovations and simply donâ t show, cut out mid-project, or whose work is so shoddy it must be ripped out and begun again. I am happy to report that my experience with Excel Maintenance Solutions has defied all those dire predictions. Oscar Escutia and his crew are consummate professionals, who have done beautiful work in my kitchen. They are reliable, capable, and perhaps most importantly, care about the client, offering advice and suggestions that have resulted in a beautiful kitchen that is exactly what I wanted. Oscar walked me carefully through each step of the process, mindful of cost and practicality as well as esthetic concerns. He has listened to my preferences and has been friendly and helpful at all times. The result is a kitchen perfectly suited to me, which has come in well within budget. I am pleased to recommend Excel Maintenance Solutions for all your renovation needs.

Oscar was very nice and he showed a good knowledge of the work that needed to be done.
