We were getting ready to sell my mothers home. Mike came out and gave us a very good price to remodel the main bathroom along with laying flooring in two other rooms. Very professional. Loved that this is a Father/Son company. Did I great job and would definitely be using again in the future.

Michael Krause and his son Dan were hired to remodel my kitchen demo, remove knee walls, and one main wall. Install custom cabinets I purchased from another company along with porcelain flooring. The installation was OK however there were many things with respect to attention to detail left unfinished Plumbing Connections to my dishwasher left lose and almost flooded my house and not secured to the cabinets or counter top. Also sharp long wood screws left protruding inside cabinets that my spouse almost cut her hand. Had to re-grout areas of tile flooring that were not filled in properly to begin with the later became an issue after several months post install. Pot lights that were left uninstalled and hanging from the ceiling when I asked about finishing Michael stated he just gave up and left them rather than provide a solution. In all fairness I did call Michael to fix he called me back next day I called back but never heard from Krause again. Not using this contractor again.

Response from Company:

Thank you for sharing your experience with Krause Construction. We take customer concerns seriously and aim to provide clear communication and quality service to our homeowners. Regarding the services provided, Yes the lazy susan issue was discussed as the nails needed to be corrected. You had spoken with Michael and set up a date/time for him. Unfortunately the day/time that you were looking for he was unavailable. You then stated that "You would just correct them yourself". What is most concerning to us is the comment regarding the pot lighting. This conversation never occurred. Michael would never tell a homeowner that he was "Giving up". We would have loved to have the opportunity to address any concerns rather than over a year later hear about it through an Angie list review. We take extreme pride in our customer service and our reputation as that is what our company is all about.

Mike Krause and his son Dan removed my old 20 foot wooden deck and replaced it with a beautiful 30 foot trex deck with lights and steps. They did an excellent job and finished in a short time. This is was the fourth time. I hired Mike Krause.

Michael was helpful and did a great job of keeping informed on everything from permitting to timing on completion of the work. My only regret was not making my deck he built from the ground up bigger. He and his son were great to work with as well as his wife. I would recommend him for any home projects.

Mike's work speaks for itself. Well done with attention to detail. Professional and personable. Easy to speak to. For the price, I don't think you could find a better contractor. He will definitely be on my list for any of my future projects. AAA+

Mike did a great job on his timeliness of estimate to getting me on the schedule and even being honest about wood prices up front. I received a professional contract with his information and license and felt confident for him to start. He redid my huge deck added my railings back on and redid my steps and itâ s beautiful! He kept in communication, did their job, cleaned up and finished before his estimated complete date! We are thrilled and would highly recommend him!!

Mike was totally professional, respectful, reliable, clean, methodical, personable, exceptional work ethic, prompt, and on time. He remodeled a bedroom, installed a new steel door in our basement, and installed a new steel front door and storm door. Exceptional work. Will continue to hire Mike for any other projects and highly recommend him to others. We just can't say enough good things about Mike.

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.

    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.
