GMG CONSTRUCTION, INC.

An appropriate replacement stair was provided and carefully installed. The politeness and courtesy of the skilled installers was simply outstanding. The custom work in fitting the stairs to the existing attic opening was a marvel of workmanship. The cleanup of the area was extremely thorough. We would hire GMG again without hesitation. We highly recommend!

Super pretty job done Ballard and his men are all very. Nice and respectful felt very comfortable having them in my home we will use again in the future

Ballard McFarlane of GMG Construction is an amazing Contractor. He generated awesome ideas, his respectful and clean team showed up every day, they finished my project on time, and even came in under bid! His amazing communication skills helped me resolve several problems with the contractor that did work before him. It seemed like he and his team were always going the extra mile. I found Ballard because of his incredible reviews and I hope to leave him my own. I wish I had known about Ballard McFarlane / GMG Construction earlier! Thanks so much Ballard, Jane and team!

They fixed the foundation on the shed and a few other random jobs.  <br /> <br /> They did a very good job. Good quality of work and the workers were all really good.

Great communication, prompt, hours well accounted for. Well-trained and versatile team. Daily clean-up and haul away of waste materials. Responsive to changes to the work order that I made on the fly. <br /> WE'LL HAVE GMG CONSTRUCTION BACK THIS SPRING AND SUMMER FOR MORE PROJECTS. THEY HAVE EARNED IT <br />

It went very, very well, and I had so much more peace of mind when he was finished.  A lot of work ahead to stabilize the situation, but as soon as it is stabilized (and we've had a few rainstorms to make sure it's permanent!) I'm going to have Ballard out to completely finish the project. <br />

We had another contractor turn a room that was tacked on to the back of our house in the 1930's into a laundry and half bath. That project went way, way over budget, so I stopped before the siding was put on. <br /> Enter GMG Construction. I had bought an Angie's list deal, and after considering two other projects decided to use the deal to finish the exterior of the room (which was covered with roofing shingles) <br /> GMG responded, indicating the work could be done within the labor I had already purchased, plus materials. I am glad I listened to their advice about siding. They recommended, and installed, lapped Hardie siding. The person who did the work clearly had done a lot of siding work before, and he took pains to do a really nice job. <br /> The project went very well, completed in the time estimated. <br /> GMG went above and beyond and carried the siding all the way down to ground level (partly below an existing deck). Additional flashing was installed and they even bolted a corner of the deck that had warped (Not part of the project but a very nice surprise) <br /> And they finished a part of the underside of this room (which spans the stairs to the scary basement). <br /> The siding looks great even though I have not gotten around to painting it. The primer color is pretty close to the paint color we already had. <br /> All that said, it was a great experience and I am looking forward to using GMG for future projects (as I can afford them, aren't old houses just so much fun??) <br />

<p>The job went great.  Shannon spent practically the whole week working with me doing carpentry, millwright, laborer, and even a bit of mechanical work.   He took on every task and got it done with speed and accuracy.  Ballard even came out to help with the mechanical work.   </p> <p>Was so thankful that GMC was so flexible and helped me when I needed the help.   </p> <br />

GMC was contracted to help complete and finish/reassemble our kitchen.  We had stripped the walls and cabinets down to the raw framing and relocated electrical for relocation of appliances.  They were contracted to re-hang a door, drywall the room along with an associating hallway, and install cabinets along with a farm sink.  Per the contact, work started while we were home but continued while we were away for a few days.  The owner of the business met with us, knew the scope of work we needed and understood our quality expectations meaning we wanted to maintain the existing 1920's appearance and didn't want to us MDF materials.   He  ensured us he and his team could complete the work exceeding our expectations.  We later learned he would be out of town a day or two during the time the work was completed.  <br /> When we returned, the work had been completed but didn't meet our expectation.  There are some things contractors should know better.....such as and inch wide stripe of calking does not hide the fact that you didn't align the molding correctly and installing a sink in front of a window the sing drain should be center to the window - not offset as it was.  In the end about 80% of the work his team completed had to be redone for one reason or another. We decided to not approached the owner because we believed if we had been home and he had been around to supervise is crew, most of these issues would not have occurred.  If I was to ever share with his worker anything, quality does matter to many people they need to complete the work as if it was their home - every day.  For us the biggest learning lesson is something everyone should know.....NEVER have contractors in your home when your not there to monitor their progress. <br /> I will point out there were no integrity issues with the workers it was merely their workmanship while unsupervised by us. <br />

<p>The hours needed to complete the job far exceeded the estimate and I was not alerted at the time.  Apparently there was a misunderstanding between the description of one of the tasks on the estimate and what I understood it to mean added on top of the actual time needed to perform the task.  Regardless, I did not think the cost to me for extra hours was justified and negotiated to pay for only half of those extra hours. </p> <p><br /></p> <p>The contractors did a fantastic job at keeping the dust to a minimum inside the house, but because it was November and raining, they had to cut the tile in the garage and did not hang up plastic sheeting to protect the interior from all the dust.  Granted its a garage, but the dust was excessive.  Everything was coated.  The owner did come to clean up garage, but hard to get all that fine dust. </p> <br />

The work they did was really attractive and it was fun working with them. I've sinse had another contractor in and they made a serious mistake. They were using Epay. When Epay is cut it needs to be sealed at the cut or else it spreads the moisture. They didn't seal it, so I don't think they knew how to work with it. They are very nice people.
