Sloppy work, no straight lines where two colors meet. Previous paint color shows through in spots. Paint splattered on trim and cabinets. Left junk and dust on top of cabinets. "Fake" painted behind refrigirator. Hooked up sink drain and disposal. Dishwasher will not drain, sink will not drain and leaks when the water backs up. Left job at 1:00 PM on Friday (when I was not home), then called thefollowing Tuesday in the evening to "check to make sure everything was OK". My wife and I spent two days re-painting & cleaning. Plumber assess the sink situation and said he has not seen such a botched-up job in 15 years. Total dissaster

Dale showed up on time to provide an estimate and once hired, he was on time to perform the work. He was very courteous and helpful, and did a wonderful job with the job we needed completed. Additionally, he gave us a price on and was hired to paint our doors and shutters. Thanks, Dale!

If he would have completed the job at the end to begin with, I would recommend. HIs customer service and attittude was terrific, just didn't deliver the professional painting I expected the first time.

"There was some Rollor lent on the wall and the Homeowner wanted the bottom of the Crown Molding Panted the same color as the wall. But didn't let me know about that until He used a Flash Light on the walls. I had no problem corecting what he wanted done and some."

Tile: Ceramic and Porcelain - Install
$1,400
Mr. Sword was the low bidder by about $3,000 ($1400 vs. 4400). He did a good jop laying the tile, in spite of the rough concrete floor. He did not do a good job cleanning up the grout. He left significant grout on the tile, and completely avoided cleaning under the washer and dryer. He applied sealer to the tile in addition to the grout, and left footprints and missed places, and areas with splashes. Had to hire a floor cleaning servce to get up the grout stains and excess sealer off the tile. Several tiles have cracked since the job was completed. Nice job replacing the trim.

I wish they had taken better care of my grass where the holes were cored and filled with concrete. I now have some dead grass and the wood was cut a bit messy at the top of the gates. However, for the most part, the service was good and professional and I would recommend them and even use them in the future. But will have to do a punchlist.

I hired Mr. Sword to hang, tape and mud drywall in my unfinished basement. He was very professional, he did exactly what he said he would do and also did it when he said he would so there were no surprises. The quality of the work was excellent and he even cleaned up when he was done so I was able to begin painting the same day. I would recommend Mr. Sword to anyone and I will be calling on him again as projects arise that are too much for me to handle by myself.

R.D.Sword is a true professional. We had to fix a concrete step and some wood rot. Mr.Sword provided us with a free estimate (very thorough), arrived on time, completed ahead of schedule. He is very reasonable, and quality of work is very good. My wife and I plan hope to work Mr Sword on future projects.

Mr. Sword called and offered to come out and look at the project and give us a price. He came that same day and discussed the job with my husband, who was impressed enough to sign a contract and pay a down payment. The work consisted of replacing a board on board fence section and gate and replacing two damaged sections of chain link fence. The work was completed the next week as scheduled and was done to our satisfaction. I would recommend him to anyone needed a board fence constructed.
