Gallagher Construction, LLC

We are a repeat customer of Gallagher Construction. They are a great company to work with and they work hard to ensure our satisfaction. They have earned our trust and we will use Gallagher for all our future construction/remodel needs. We know that they will do the work as agreed and we trust them around our belongings and our kids. They are wonderful to work with and we are very pleased!

Its hard to say because the end product was an A. I guess this is common with almost every service, or construction. Where there are problems, there is big mistakes that are done and then they come and repair it and make it all good. So in the end it was an A but they did some things that they weren't experienced in. It was kind of a headache at items for sure, so how do I rate that.  <br /> <br /> It took a month or so to complete. There was 2-4 at different times. Then they had the painters come that were a whole crew of 4 guys, and the gutter people were 2 guys so it differs. My first impression was an A.

We are very happy with the quality of work from Gallagher Construction, our Architecture firm, and all the subcontractors employed to help with our addition project! Adam, Sean, and their team did a great job making us feel like we and our needs were always top priority. Our home has been completely transformed and our entry is no longer a source of frustration for us. They are some of the nicest, most honest, and most hardworking guys we've ever had the pleasure of employing! Thank you to the crew at Gallagher!

These guys are great! They are very professional and actually show up when they are scheduled. They follow up with phone calls from their lead person, and let me know the status of the job during each phase. They  also cleaned up the work area after finishing they job.Their staff is friendly and courteous, and willing to work around my schedule.  <br /> I would definitely use this company again for any construction/remodel job I need. I would recommend them to friends and neighbors without any hesitation. A very trustworthy and reliable company! <br />

This was the third full renovation/remodel completed by Gallagher Construction for myself and my family. With all projects they were great about responding to my questions/concerns, accommodated my decision to make changes after the project was started and respected what I needed to accomplish and the time frame I requested. They are hands down the only provider I would use or recommend (and my family has used the services of two other contractors in the past 20 years). <br /> I was especially impressed that they were able to complete the bulk of the project (minus my added changes) in the time period I needed so that I would not have to be out of my home or board my dogs and cats longer than initially anticipated. I know it's a minor detail to most people but my pets are a huge part of my life and the fact that they understood and worked with me to accommodate their needs was appreciated. If they are willing to work with my quirks as a client and do a great job, I know they will handle any requests professionally, promptly and with understanding. <br /> The only issue we had was the carpet install because the carpet arrived from the manufacturer with a defect that I didn't notice until it was pointed out to me. Had they not shown me I probably would have never noticed but they did and then replaced the carpet twice until it met their standards. <br /> I would also like to add that I dealt with a number of personal family matters (including losing my mom) recently and Sean, Adam and their team were very understanding and compassionate. <br /> They are a great company who do quality work! <br />

<p>Adam (Project Manager) is extremely knowledgeable and reliable, a true professional. Timing was key on all of my projects (remodeling a home with 3 little kids around is not ideal) and was impressed by the quality of work they were able to provide in the timeframe given. Give them a call and make your dream a reality!<br /> <br /></p> <br />

It went better then I would have expected. This company I used before and tell all my friends. Most are always nervous about using a new company - especially a construction company! But I have to say I was pleased again and most importantly, my wife was very happy with the results and attention to detail. Call these guys. They are one of the best construction companies in the PNW. <br />

Overall, we had a great experience with Gallagher Construction! The work that we needed done didn't fall into the category of "fun home improvement projects" that most homeowners look forward to- in fact we were pretty frustrated to learn that the previous owners had allowed the structural condition to get so bad- but Gallagher gave us a tremendous amount of confidence that the work would be done and done right. We requested bids from 4 other providers and although Gallagher fell on the more expensive side of the spectrum, they had a good idea of where the previous owners went wrong and the clearest vision of how to move forward to fix current issues and prevent recurring ones. The entire Gallagher crew was incredibly professional, insightful, and upbeat; Spencer, in particular, was always working very diligently and happy to answer the several dozen questions we had each morning.  Once the work was completed, Sean took the time to walk through everything, answer all of our questions, and make sure that everything was done to our satisfaction. We're really looking forward to working with Gallagher again now that we can start planning out the "fun" projects on our home! <br />

I searched all around Angieslist and trying to find a reputable contracting service.   I called at least 8 places and most of them didn't even reply to my voice mail. <br /> Sean and I got on both phone call and email communications.  We setup our first appointment and walked around the house for things I want to be done.  He answered a lot of my other questions and gave me advice on what other maintenance work I might need to be done to the house in the future.  Between our emails and phone calls, Sean showed his professionalism, knowledge around house construction and was patient in explaining things. <br /> His co worker Adam came on site took a look at the job site before they start working.  They had three guys came in and replaced the siding in a day.  Work all complete in the time they promised when Sean gave out the estimate.   <br /> One small issue is that while doing he job I had a window AC unit right below the siding they replaced.  Debris from moving away the siding all got into the AC and my AC was less than a week old.  This happened even I called Sean before they start working on the house.  Sean said their guy would remove the AC and put back tougher after that job complete.  Because this did happen and after I communicated with Sean they were happy to give a credit or a new AC unit.  They also admit that they should do better site preparation next time. <br /> I would highly recommend Sean for your construction needs they are reliable, fast and do quality works.  I think you will be glad that you choose them. <br />

They gave us their estimate for time at materials at $8000 while we were taking bids. We hired them to do the job and they did some good things (some of which required subcontracting) but when we inspected the work we found some problems -- they had used 2 by 4s in place of 4 by 4s in a couple of places where they should not have. They came and fixed it and the owner was apologetic but when they gave us the bill it came out to $16000 (though we had increased the amount of work since the initial bid). Additionally, there was a saw that went missing from my garage but they apologized for that and replaced it. The plumbing and electrical subcontractors did a fine job.

Gallagher Construction was one of several firms contacted after a tree fell on our house during the 26 October 2014 wind storm. Damage involved the considerable damage to the roof and one room, plus some damage to a cathedral ceiling, resulting in ongoing drafts into the house. Two of three firms who inspected the property submitted bids; we chose Gallagher Construction (GC) over the other firm because: <br /> <ol> <li>1) Timeliness of the bid. Due to an unexpected need to check for asbestos, the GC bid was one day late (which I basically considered, "on time" due to the change, while the other bid was five days late. This was important to us, since the house was open to the weather and drafts.</li> </ol> <ul> <li>2) GC's bid stated to repair/replace 10+ trusses, while the other only stated 6. A simple look into the attic showed that there would be more than six trusses to repair or replace.</li> <li>3) GC asked for time to get his various subs into the house to give their estimates- an engineer for the trusses, roofing, drywalling, electric, and paint.</li> <li>4) My wife was impressed by the concern/level of attention to detail during the bidding process.</li> <li></li> </ul> <p>Work commenced on 2 December with some of GC's workers helping us pack and move the rooms that would be affected into a temporary storage container. Because of the level of damage to the roof structure, the work would involve removal of the roof from one end of the house down to and including the ceiling, meaning that three bedrooms, the hallway, and two bathrooms would be open to air, with one of the bedrooms needing to be gutted to the studs. The demolition work was completed within the week, and soon after, we had new trusses going up. For the most-part, we were satisfied with the weatherproofing which was done each evening after work, keeping water damage from the ongoing (and sometimes very heavy) rain to a minimum. The roof was completed before New Years, an impressive job considering the number of rainy days they had to work around.<br /> January was spent on repairing the interior. While work was going to take place, GC suggested that we might take the opportunity to take advantage of the vanities needing to be removed to do drywalling and painting, and do some minor upgrades. We purchased the materials, and were quite happy with those results. The ceiling replacement and dry walling was completed rapidly, and painting done, along with attention to a number of individual details, in time for us to move back in before the end of January.<br /> GC also worked with us to make the best of difficulties involving the insurance and the bank, including taking care of a needed inspection while we were out of the country. I feel that GC performed an outstanding service, and I would gladly work with them again (although, since this was the second tree to fall on our house... we would prefer it to be an ordinary remodel or construction. No more treefalls!)</p> <br />

Set and met expectations.  Excellent quality.  No surprises.  No complaints.  Would hire again and would recommend. <br />

<p>The project started quickly and progressed well. Sean and his team were very accommodating as we lived in the house while the remodel was going on. The crew were a pleasure to have around. I didn't realize how many subcontractors would be used electrical/roof/gutters and drywall, and I think this bumped the cost, but all the work proceeded quickly and expertly because of this. Jim also did a lovely job matching the existing structure and even making improvements after consulting with me. I'm very happy with the outcome!</p>

The project was great.  Both Sean and Adam have excellent design sensibilities, solid project management skills and a fantastic crew of hard working, diligent and talented contractors.  They did a beautiful job and handled every bump, question, change and request with grace and care.  I especially appreciate that they talked us out of silly ideas that would have looked bad and cost more.  They are extremely customer-service focused and really care about making sure you love the job 100%.  Other perks were having the best dust control/floor protection system I've ever seen and daily site clean up.  I did not find a single stray nail or staple!

<p>Our project went very well once again.  On-time and on-budget.</p> <p>Adam, our PM, was excellent (once again).</p> <p>He is easy to work with and his construction knowledge & organization is the best I have seen ever!</p> <br />

These guys were great! They were very professional and oversaw the project all the way through to completion. The project manager, Adam, was very good and his experience throughout the project impressive. The most important thing to him was making sure it was right for us and he did just that. We will use these guys again for sure.

<p>Sean Gallagher from Gallagher Construction is starting his own business after working for others for many years.  I was introduced to him through my designer, Heather Lund.  The resulting workout room is excellent.  It exceeded everyone's expectations and is a great balance of fun and functional.  I especially enjoyed the brainstorming we went through between the designer, Heather Lund, and Sean and Adam.  There were several challenges that came up for which they found some very creative solutions.  My husband said he could not see this room looking like anything other than a garage -- especially since we had a furnace, water heater and central vac in the room as well as ugly ducts. He now stands or works out corrected.  We closeted the water heater and furnace.  Adam found a cool track system to hang a heavy bag, TRX, or hanging chair.  The kids love the chair option so they can use the Xbox in the garage to play games with their friends.  We resurfaced cabinets that were sitting around for storage.  We added a gear wall to handle all the fun exercise tools and add interest to the wall.  Adam had a great attention to detail and mirrored the finish carpentry in the house even to the point of how he trimmed out the access hatch to the crawl space.  It all looks great.</p> <p>He also helped us design and install a nook cabinet near that back door that can be that dropping place for keys, purses, mail, paper, and counter space for charging of electronics.  It  also has uppers and lowers for needed storage from the kitchen.  This 48" wide area has significantly improve the flow and organization in the kitchen and is consistent with the quality of the rest of the kitchen.</p> <p>He also helped me get connected with contractors to get my miscellaneous projects done that had been haunting my list for a while.  We had holes patched, walls painted, electrical repaired -- all while we had the main project completed taking advantage of the time the trades were already in the house.  His selection of contractors was top notch.  I would use any of them for another project.  They were all very professional and shared his eye for quality and detail.</p> <p>I would definitely recommend Gallagher Construction.  I look forward to doing additional projects with them in the future.</p>
