Wood-N-Dreams, Inc.

They were very good. They worked with me on everything and always answered any questions I had.

We hired Brian, after firing our first contractor. Brian was supposed to be our savior, but he screwed us BIG TIME. I just paid him $28970.50 to finish our house renovation, and he cashed the checks and became "unavailable" He was supposed to order materials and finish our whole house renovation. We started with him in November 2015, and this has dragged on for a YEAR. He would love to explain the reasons why, and there are several that are stipulated in the type of renovation loan that we have. He signed our contract knowing that he was to supply materials, do the work, get inspected, and get paid from the draws on our bank. He violated that agreement by not being able to do as outlined in our contract. When I was able to provide some upfront monies, he bought some materials, but took extraordinary amounts of time away from our job. Much later, he explained he had to "rob Peter" (Us) to pay Paul (Other jobs). He will also moan about his mother's illness (which we were understanding about) to her passing months later (which we were understanding about. In the meantime, he took vacations (without telling us, and work stopped), he had things with his kids (work stopped), other jobs (work stopped) there were many other stoppages without explanation, including this most recent where I gave him the $28970.50 check and now it has been a month since the last work, and he has not returned numerous texts, calls leaving voice messages or emails. We are talking to our attorney as we speak. In June 2016, he informed us we were over budget by $8000, that became $9730. We paid him the overage because didn't want to stop progress. It stopped anyway. We had an HVAC (not his fault) that damaged the new floors and the ceiling. The HVAC company paid $1850 for the damages, and the floor was redone, but the ceiling was left damaged as is. He left a driveway full of construction debris (most of it from a job site that was not ours). He tried to but was rejected (they required him to fulfill his obligations to do the original Scope Of Work), by our bank, to rewrite the "Scope Of Work" to fit his needs. He became very passive aggressive, and most recently we called him out on a very costly lie. He told us in July 2016, when we paid the budget overages that we were back to even and that "EVERYTHING" was in line with the budget again. He told us he could proceed to paint the interior of the house, as well as the outside. Early October, we saw him at our house, and he lied to our faces and said he never promised that. We were BOTH witnesses to his original promise, and we let him know that lying to us was not acceptable, and that we would hold him to his agreement. That is when he disappeared, with our money. We will be suing him. We would like to warn anyone from working with him. He would love to explain his choices and behavior away, but trust me, you COULD regret it. We feel so strongly, that we invite anyone thinking about using him to email me at ebarryhill@msn.com, and will do my best to dissuade you. He disappears without explanation for long periods of time, doesn't return calls, is passive aggressive, ultimately untrustworthy. He took our money and walked away from incomplete house which is not livable. We will have to find another contractor, and we don't know where we are gonna get the money to finish because Wood N Dreams stole it. WE WILL PROVIDE PICTURES OF THE INCOMPLETE WORK ASAP.

They have been extremely unresponsive. He left on vacation. nothing. I still have not received any work I am not pleased by unresponsive he has been.

It went wonderfully.  They provided three fantastic designs. Scheduling was good with them.

It was a good experience. I was looking for kitchen designideas. There was a 3 week turnaround time between when I met with the designer and receiving the plans.

<p>He appreciated my need to update but yet maintain the character and charm of the house.  This was the only shower so he also worked quickly to reduce the inconvenience.  Brian also accommodated some changes I wanted to make that were not in the original plan. We still own this house as a rental property and that bath has withstood some tenant "mishandling", and still looks and works just as well as when it was completed in 2007.</p> <p>We are currently about to begin work with Wood-N-Dreams this month (April 2014) on our master bath in our new home,.  Brian's  extensive knowledge of the industry has been very helpful as we design this next bath. </p> <p><br /> </p>

<p>It went beautifully.  I was free to leave the house during construction and in the</p> <p>end I have the kitchen I wanted.</p> <p>Again, I got what I wanted because Brian "LISTENS".</p>

They do a great job. They've done work for me before. They have done cabinetry with lighting and rerouted outlets. I would definitely recommend them. They clean up after themselves and they put things down. He worked in my house twice. Would I call him back the second time if I didn't think he did a great job the first time when he worked in my house a year ago?

It was a long haul, but not because of this company.  They showed up every day at 8 AM and worked until 5 PM or later.  There was additional work that needed to be done due to the termite damage.  They did the work very professionally and the money added to the bill for this work was more than fair.  The owner, Brian Fitzgerald, employs VERY capable workers.  They were all friendly, courteous and  arrived on time each day.  They all gave us the impression that they cared about our home as much as we did.  When there was an issue with the finish on the cabinet doors/drawers, Brian went to bat for us with the manufacturer and although it took a few months, the manufacturer corrected the problem to our satisfaction.  <br /> We were never wondering...Brian would always call and let us know what the next step would be. <br /> All things considered, we would highly recommend Wood N' Dreams for any refurbishing (they don't just do kitchens) and we would be glad to have them back anytime. <br /> <br /> <br />

Wood-n-Dreams did an EXCELLENT job.  From the beginning, Brian, Bob and team took the time to thoroughly review our goals and answer our questions.  Their cost estimates was competitive and accurate.  They did all the work within budget and on time.  They provided us a detailed contract 'book' that ensured we were both on the same page for the project.  Every worker involved with the project was pleasant and professional, including the sub-contractors.  We are very pleased with the result - the room looks great.
