Richard and the crew did an absolutely amazing job repairing my stucco siding. They tied it in with the old stucco perfectly and hauled everything away. I would highly recommend them for for any stucco job.

I had Richard redo out 1/2 Bathroom last year. He had the best price out of 5 quotes. The quality of workmanship was outstanding. Tile, toilet, and vanity, moldings etc. was installed. I was really impressed with how the tile transitioned from the 1/2 Bath to the tile in the hallway. Flawless transition... I apparently forgot to write him a review at that time. I am asking him now to look at our family bathroom. Need I say more.

They were not the cheapest option, but their response time and communication was great. The guys who arrived on site knew what they were doing and did it quickly. Saved in my phone for any future needs.

Richard is always ready to pick up the phone and heâ s so patient with me. I asked so many questions and he explained it all. Would definitely work with him again

Richard was very reliable and did the work on time. Their prices are also very competitive and they had good workmanship.

If youâ re looking for expertise in home repairs, look no further. We are ecstatic with the results of our home and would give our unequivocal recommendation.

If you need work done, I highly recommend Richard and General American. I could not be happier with the work performed, attention to detail and professionalism, but what impressed me most was his flexibility and willingness to step in and help. For example: the plumber was delayed which would have left us without use of the bathroom another 4 days, but Richard stepped in and kept us on schedule. There doesn't seem to be a lot that he can't do. Also, in full disclosure my wife and I are perfectionists and to make us happy is no small feat. Without a doubt we will hire Richard for our next project, you should do the same.

Worst decision I ever made hiring Richard for an extensive amount of money and work. Everything he or his workers did in our home is messed up and needs to be redone by much more qualified professionals. Richard is a nice guy and means well but he and his crew have no idea what theyâ re doing and he was hardly present on our job as the GC until the end. Some of the issues we have that we didnâ t realize until months laterâ ¦ - He pulled up and put down all new tile flooring. The grout was mixed incorrectly and is now crumbling all over the house with massive chunks coming out (I can scratch it out with a fingernail). Whatâ s worse, is nearly a quarter of our flooring now sounds hollow underneath the tile because they didnâ t use enough thinset or they put too much water in the mixture and when it dried it left massive gaps. - He painted the inside and outside of our home and there are constantly paint bubbles forming on the exterior of the home and the interior is tacky (sticky) because they left doors open while painting so it never cured properly because it was way too humid in the house. - He repaired our sunroom roof because of water damage and then didnâ t properly shingle the roof. We now have bubbles forming and shingles that are staying wet barely a year later. - While he was here, he installed an exterior door backwards (the threshold was facing the wrong way) and water came into the house every time it rained. It took me debating him for an hour while he told me itâ s normal for water to come into the garage for him to reverse the door. Since then, no water (because itâ s not normal), but he damaged the brand new door in the process and now it has a giant dent/hole in it. There are so many more issues but I canâ t even list them all. Iâ ve tried having him fix things but never get anything fixed properly annd eventually had to give up. Like I said, really nice guy but be careful of the positive reviews. Mine was five stars and positive until I realize all the issuesâ ¦took me a while to get back on here and fix my review.

What is the screening process that Service Professionals go through in order to become members of the HomeAdvisor network?

  1. Verify Trade License
    HomeAdvisor checks to see if the business carries the appropriate state-level license.
  2. Verify Insurance
    As a part of our screening process, we encourage professionals to carry general liability insurance. We require coverage for hundreds of services.
  3. Verification of State Business Filings
    For business types that require a Secretary of State filing, we confirm that the business is in good standing in the state in which it is located.
  4. Criminal Records Search
    HomeAdvisor uses 3rd party data sources to conduct a criminal search for any relevant criminal activity associated with the owner/principal of the business.
  5. Sex Offender Search
    We confirm that the owner/principal is not listed on the official state Sex Offender web site in the state in which the owner/principal of the company is located.
  6. Bankruptcy Search
    We use 3rd party data sources to check the history of the principal/owner of the business for bankruptcy filings by or against them.
  7. Legal Search for Civil Judgments
    We use 3rd party data sources to check the principal/owner of the business for state level civil legal judgments entered against them.
  8. Liens Search
    We use 3rd party data sources to check the principal/owner of the business for liens placed against them.
  9. Identity Verification (SSN)
    HomeAdvisor verifies the social security number(s) of the owner/principal for identity check purposes. This check applies primarily to smaller business entities.
