"I needed several different jobs done around my home. Jerry was able to take care of everything. He is a skilled carpenter and also The talented in other areas as well. He renovated my home office by creatively repairing a redwood entry door, patching and painting the room, hung a large flat screen TV, replaced a toilet in the bathroom as well as numerous other small fixes around the property. He was able to clearly communicate what he was going to do and showed up on time. I’m very happy with results. I highly recommend S &J Handyman Services."

"<p>I contacted American Sliding Door to install pet doors in my sliding glass door and in the screen door for the slider.  I was so happy to have a local provider (I like to support the local businesses if possible).</p> <p>I knew I was going to have to replace the glass on the sliding door in order to have the pet door through the glass.  I found the price very reasonable  considering the glass replacement, screen door, and pet door hardware.  They are excellent quality pet doors.  </p> <p>The pet door in the slider comes with two flaps, one inside and outside the glass, this keeps the door insulated.  There are also magnets that hold the pet door closed from wind or airflow.  If you need to remove any of the magnets or flaps to help during the training of your pet, it is fairly easy with this pet door.</p> <p>Despite already having a screen door, the entire screen door needed to be replaced to accommodate the pet door hardware in the screen.  I find the quality of the new screen door much better than the original so I found the additional cost in the screen door to be worth it.</p> <p>The workers were extremely professional.  They offered to install the door shortly after everything arrived in their shop.  Everything came out perfect.  They took there time to make sure we were going to be happy with the end product.</p> <br />"

"Could, and should have been better. <br /> Subcontractors: <br /> HVAC--Placer Heating and Air <br /> Insulation--Gold Star <br /> Windows--mostly in-house. <br /> Lessons learned: <br />  1. Put everything in writing--no verbals or phone call contractual or post-contractual agreements. Use email for documentation after the contract is signed.  <br /> 2. Hold back final monies until all work is done.  <br /> 3. Do not rush the work or allow the contractor to rush the work.  <br /> 4. If it's in the contract, insist on it and withhold payment until it's done. <br /> 5. All parts are the contractor's responsibility. <br /> 6. Inspect all work before the next phase, distribute a punch list, and don't approve and/or pay until you are satisfied. <br /> 7. Ignore suggestions that faulty equipment is due to the customer's lack of understanding. Contact the manufacturer if something doesn't seem right. <br /> 8. Insist on good quality finish work. <br /> 9. Insist that all materials be as specified in the contract or standard (check the standards when in doubt). <br /> 10. Be wary of companies that subcontract HVAC. <br /> 11. Make sure all work is permitted; read permits carefully; flag errors. <br /> 12. Check model and serial numbers in contract with manufacturer's website to ensure the grade/series you are paying for is physically the same. <br /> <strong>July 7-9</strong> <br /> Contract was signed on June 25, 2015. Work started July 7 and continued for three days total. Old HVAC equipment was removed, ducts removed, some insulation removed, new HVAC equipment installed, new thermostat installed. Insulation removal said to be complete. <br /> Problems: <br /> ?Subcontractors both stated that insulation was completely removed when it was not (twice). <br /> ?HVAC sub and contractor implied homeowner was incapable of operating new wifi thermostat. Three wifi thermostats malfunctioned, leading homeowner to contact manufacturer's rep to resolve the problem. They advised another thermostat that did not read the wall temperature rather than the air temperature. <br /> ?Apprentice attempted to obtain side work replacing air registers. <br /> ?HVAC sub tried to get homeowner to buy control parts for whole house fan installation. <br /> ?HVAC sub dragged feet and stalled on doing contractual work on water heater. Homeowner had verbal agreement with contractor's sales rep to install in two steps; contractor denied agreement. Homeowner removed it from contract by mutual agreement. <br /> ?New intake return cutout cut beyond boundary into ceiling. <br /> <strong>July 15<br /> </strong>Windows installed 8am to 3pm <br /> More insulation removed. <br /> Problems: <br /> ?Wrong windows ordered; only two could be installed. <br /> <strong>July 22 </strong> <br /> Punch list and connect whole house fan to controls <br /> Problems: <br /> ?Whole house fan motor burned out on install; wired incorrectly. <br /> ?Ceiling fixture not reinstalled properly. <br /> <strong>July 27<br /> </strong>Remaining windows and patio door installed. <br /> More insulation removed. <br /> Problems: <br /> Window trim not caulked on outside. <br /> Some trim cuts not even with other pieces. <br /> Windows not cleaned after install. <br /> One piece of original trim recycled instead of replaced. <br /> Homeowner paid contractor paid about 2/3 of the contractual amount. The rest held until all work completed. <br /> <strong>through end of July, August, September</strong> <br /> Punch list work completed on windows, HVAC. Thermostat replaced. Whole fan wired correctly to dedicated circuit. Whole house fan hanging location shifting to optimum location. Duct work straightened. Damper installed on one duct to balance air. <br /> Insulation was blown 8/27/15. <br /> Problems: <br /> ?Heat pump cycling on for 30 seconds accompanied by buzzing noise that gets louder. <br /> ?Whole house fan not permitted. <br /> ?HVAC sub scheduled to work but did not show up; on another day, sub called several times but never showed <br /> <strong>Test out, code inspection<br /> </strong>Test out performed 9/15/15, Code inspection 9/22/15 and re-inspected for whole house fan permit failure on 9/30/15. <br /> Problems: <br /> ?Test out failed on air leakage. Did not meet SMUD HPP specifications. Rebate not available. Contractor offers to refund the difference. <br /> ?HVAC and window work passed inspection, but whole house fan was never permitted. Contractor pulled the permit, provided hard copy, inspector reinspected on 9/30/15. <br /> <strong>SMUD rebate preparation<br /> </strong>Contractor prepares JRT (job reporting template) for SMUD HPP and sends to homeowner for review. (9/18) <br /> Contractor prepares SMUD rebate application for homeowner (9/24) <br /> Problems: <br /> Some calculations incorrect on the JRT. Contractor resolved. <br /> Some rebates changed in the four months the contract work spanned. Contractor made up differences. <br /> <strong>Final Payment<br /> </strong>Homeowner made final payment on 9/30/15. <br /> <strong>SMUD rebate receipt<br /> </strong>Homeowner receives rebate check from SMUD on 11/5/15. <br /> Problems: <br /> Total $150 short of JRT. Inquiries with SMUD revealed that contractor revised JRT after last version was sent to homeowner. The latest JRT did not include the whole house fan in the project. Homeowner not informed. SMUD made arrangements to rebate the whole house fan. <br /> Takeaways: <br /> Sales rep made a good professional, technical, and personal impression without hard sell or scare tactics. One issue with verbal agreement. Scheduler at the contractor very responsive, efficient, and flexible. HVAC sub skilled, but sometimes unreliable and choice of apprentices unwise--made a bad impression of the company. Window snafu annoying.  <br /> Too much homeowner time spent on this contract: over ten days of visits, two no-shows, two code inspections, one test out. Too many emails to count. Final rebate prep never shared with homeowner. Test out failed air leakage test. <br /> <br /> <br />"

"They came the next day and fixed the problem with the remotes and provided the usual maintenance."

"The owner , Daneil,  of Lock Genius was out of town but sent an affiiate ( who didn't work directly with him) over right away to assess our issue with door handle that would not work. The owner, Daniel was the nicest and most hard-working person I have probably ever dealt with for service/maintenance issues with our property or home. His affiliate charged $74 to assess issue and I waited a couple weeks for a call back to hear about what parts had been ordered and for a replacement but when I did not hear back I called Daniel and he went to work on it right away - the part was hard to obtain and he called may people to try to find a part but when he could not he figured out a way to use another part to work instead saving us  quite a bit of $ (replacement of door handle would have been $500-600 but in the end parts and labor by Daniel were only $174 more.) He even took a look at some othr things in our loft unit we were concerned about unrelated to the door/lock.  He was always so eager to help , kind and responsive by phone. I woudl highly recommend Daniel to anyone! <br />"

"My wife and I could not be happier with the quality of workmanship, professionalism, and outcome of our kitchen remodeling project. I interviewed 7 different General Contractors for our project before settling on Robert and V&G Builders. Not only was he more competitively priced than all of the others, his ideas and suggestions to help improve our project made us feel as if he really cared about our happiness with the end result. From day 1, Robert took the time to make sure all of the surrounding areas were properly covered and protected as well as explained what would be taking place each day The site was cleaned at the end of each day so we could go about our normal lives.. If there was an issue, Robert always had a suggestion to remedy the situation as well as suggested things my wife and I did not think of, such as replacing our current halogen can lights with updated LED's. Robert has a strong attention to detail and even caught items my wife and I had missed, which isn't easy as both us us are pretty picky. Bottom line, if you are looking for a General Contractor who is knowledgeable, professional, and does exceptional work, then Robert and V&G Builders would be an excellent choice. I promise you wont be sorry."
