"It went pretty good. They had to return to resolve the cover fit issue."

"March 2020 I hired Mike Montgomery of BPG to inspect cracks in my basement wall and make recommendations of how to fix it. The inspection and report went fine. Mike found another wall that needed to be attached to the ceiling joist. He offered to do a design for $420. I accepted with the thought that the design would be representative in value to what I was paying. Mike provided a stock drawing where he changed three dimensions based on calculations that he made. This work probably took him about 15 minutes to complete. I felt the design was worth no more than $100. Mike and BPG disagreed with me and thought that the design was worth the $420. Mike did take the time to discuss this with me. The BPG claims manager did not take the time to call me, but sent me an email instead. Since I agreed to pay this amount up front, I went ahead and paid the bill. Be wary before asking them to provide you with a design, although the inspection and report were very good. June 2020 Even though I wrote a negative review, Mike answered addition questions that I had on multiple occasions as I fully exposed the walls and learned the extent of the damage. The fee to perform the inspection and write the report was well worth the money. Mike knows what he is doing and is very professional. He even recommended the contractor who I found to be the lowest cost and most knowledgeable."

"Fantastic experience with Todd and basement remedy. Incredibly responsive (he came out and took a look same day). Knew immediately what the issue was with out stone foundation, and offered solutions that we could get done asap and fit our budget. Very happy and HIGHLY RECOMMEND for stone foundation work. We'll he bringing them back for other basement and foundation issues in the future."

"The service was excellent. They are on time and they are always courteous and very careful with the job site. They clean up after themselves and the job was completely satisfactory."

"Jim is the designer who walked the property, made recommendations and provided the estimates. We asked for the work to be quoted as two estimates. We had to do the back yard re-grading and seeding, but theoretically could have cleaned up the landscaping ourselves. In the end we hired them for both projects because the estimates were so reasonable. Jim was punctual, professional, very knowledgeable. His quote on the re-grading/seeding was similar in price but very different in amount of fill dirt that had been quoted by Scot's last Fall. I called him about it and his explanation made a lot of sense: he thought we could use a lot of the existing soil and softly slope the lawn away from the house. The yahoo we hired last year had butchered it so badly, and had created a hard edge. <br />It took longer to actually get on their calendar than we had hoped, but we foolishly tried to wait to get quotes from other landscapers. We were burned so badly last summer that we were trying to be overly cautious. <br />When we did not get call backs from 3 other companies (even Scot's who had originally provided an estimate last Fall) we booked the work with Thomson's. Believe it or not, Scot's failed to respond to three separate calls AND a visit to their store by my husband. <br />The projects were completed over two days and Jim was here at the beginning of each day to make sure the crew knew what was to be done. We had 4 different crew members <br />There were a few things about completed work I was not quite comfortable with. Jim returned my call promptly and came out to do a walk through with me two days later. It was nothing major, but he agreed and said he would put in a work order for a return visit with no additional charge to us. <br />We highly recommend Thomson's and will use them again. <br /> <br /> <br />"

"Overall, great experience. Would hire them again in the future."

"I wish I could give a good review, because we worked with the builder to design a unique and lovely home. Before I begin, PLEASE NOTE- if you ask the builder about this review, he will likely give you a story about unfinished payments or such. That was the story we got when we inquired about a previously litigated job, and we decided to give him the benefit of the doubt because he seemed to be a nice guy and good fit for our job. <br /> The job started easily enough and we didn't have many problems in the early stages. We did have to monitor the quality and point out split studs, improperly placed insulation, etc. The crew consisted of nice guys, but there was little quality control done by the contractor. Our daily trips to the site usually consisted of us cleaning up trash, food wrappers, spilled drinks etc. both inside and outside. Malone was not present on the site very often, and many mistakes were overlooked until WE discovered them---toilets installed in the wrong place, ceramic tiles laid crookedly, etc. An entire exterior wall was mistakenly sided with expensive Hardy plank when it was supposed to be stone. Those are things that probably happen with many jobs, so as long as they were corrected we were okay. But when the job was close to finish, suddenly items that had been part of the design became extra charges, and we had to eliminate some features we had assumed all along were part of the house. <br /> I won't go into detail about the last weeks of the job, there was much disagreement and it was very difficult to get our punch list finished. When we closed the mortgage on the house there were still issues that hadn't been addressed, but Malone said that they would be taken care of as warranty items. We were told to let the house and quot;settleand quot; through the winter and spring and then he would see what needed to be repaired. The following summer was one delay after another, and it was 9 months after and quot;completionand quot; that his crew finally came back to do the warranty work. It took several attempts before they managed to repair a ceiling and get it painted correctly, and even now you can see sponge marks and wall paint overlapping the ceiling and vise versa. I contacted him repeatedly to notify him of more issues, including but not limited to cracked drywall, flooring that doesn't reach the baseboard, window sills that are separated and rough, popped drywall nails, many corners of cracked paint with primer showing through....Imagine how stressful for people who lost their home in a fire to discover that the new home's fireplace was installed without a major part, causing damage to the fireplace itself. We chose a high quality vinyl plank floor that resembles distressed wood, but because the cement slab wasn't thoroughly prepped and smoothed the floor shows dips, bumps and even debris that was left under it during installation. <br /> Sadly, instead of returning to finish the warranty items, he simply went AWOL. He refused to answer emails and bluntly decided that he was not going to return or finish the job. There is not a single room in the 3100 sq. ft. home that doesn't have visible issues and flaws. If you decide to use Malone Renovations, I strongly urge you to be present on site every day, checking for quality. Get every single item spelled out in the contract, because a man's word isn't what it used to be. And DO NOT approve payments before you are 100 percent satisfied that every issue is corrected and completed. If you authorize payment and then hope to have the builder return, you will be sadly disappointed."

"Upon discovering water leaking into my basement i contacted buckeye waterproofing. Jerry Schieve, field supervisor came out and gave an estimate and scheduled the work.. Within 2 weeks the crew was at my home working. IT took 3 days to complete and everything went well. <br />"
