"John was quick to respond and work with me to fit into my schedule. Very knowledgeable on how to repair the storm damage on my sheds. Weather cooperated, luckily. The day of the job, John came in, handled the repair quickly and professionally. John was very polite throughout the entire process. I would hire again and refer his work to others."

"I tried your BIG DEAL listing drywall repaired and signed up for the first time. I needed two different areas repaired. One caused by a water leak in a difficult area and a area in a bedroom ceiling about 3x5 feet . The ad was replied to in the time it said in the ad. They said they would be there the next morning at 9 o,clock window time . They were here and completed the work . They worked fast and clean and in a professional manner. They put a smooth finish on the areas and will not take much more prep to paint with a flat and a finish. The two professionals, Philip and Miguel did great work and would call them again. I thank them.

"Garage door spring failed on 02/10/2015. Called Andrews the same day and they came out the next morning as scheduled. Replaced the springs and performed the maintenance on the second door. I was considering replacing the spring on the second door but they said it was not necessary. The repairman noted that the top panel of the door was cracked. The crack started several years ago but when the spring broke, it became worse. We agreed to have the panel replaced and they would have to go to Baltimore to get the replacement panel. The cost of the panel was $600.00 which included materials and labor to install. They said they would install it the next day which surprised me because they said they had to go to Baltimore to get the part and it was a Friday. Well to our surprise, they came around 9PM and installed the panel and finished about 1030pm. Everything is working fine.

"It went well. We weren't at our home at the time, so the workers used a lockbox we'd left at the front door. No complaints. Very happy with the service.

"Robert came to my house and inspected the roof and inside the attic. He explained what was going wrong with my roof and outlined my options for getting a new roof installed. He also showed me his company's credentials and their excellent ratings with various rating agencies. He gave me a quote and I was contacted to confirm the installation date. Robert and his crew showed up on time, worked really hard all day and had the new roof installed as well as the two new attic fans we had discussed installing. They cleaned up completely when they were done. Throughout the process Robert and his employees were all very professional, quick to respond to any questions and helpful in all ways. I recommend K & R Roofmasters highly and would use them again."

"These guys are great! I'm cynical about repairmen and mechanics. So often they don't perform they way they should. MJ Services arrived when they said they would, made suggestions on repairs and gave me affordable options. Their work was excellent! They cleaned up after themselves and the work was professionally done. I've got a property that I've wanted to put up for sale in Baltimore. It needed a variety of work since it had been unoccupied for years. This house now shows beautifully and I'm ready to list it! It was great to work with people who arrived when they said they would, did what they said they would do and did it right the first time. I first used them for a mold removal job, but found my self calling on them again for a variety of other repairs. They always took the time to describe their process and to let me know what to expect. We were even able to work out a pricing schedule that was convenient for me. I recommend them highly! They're the best home improvement guys I've ever worked with. Special thanks to John for all his know-how and expertise! These guys are the best!

"We are very pleased with the result, the success of which is attributable to the following:
1) Willingness to go beyond. For example,
-Robert was the only bidder to offer a color consultation, which proved to be invaluable in the end (see below)
-I returned home one day to find Robert and crew fixing a drywall patch that had been applied years prior, even though it was out of the scope of our agreement; he told me he couldn't bring himself to just paint over it without properly fixing it first
2) Experience. Before our color consultation, we had a general idea of the color scheme we wanted for the house. Thanks to Robert's experience, we were able to avoid making some disastrous color choices given that we had no idea how much seemingly minor differences in color shading could affect the final product. Without Robert's input, there is no telling what our house would look like today. I should also note that we reviewed our final color choices with 3 different interior designers, who all agreed that we have 'impeccable taste.' (A complement we shamelessly accepted even though Robert was the catalyst)
3) Straightforwardness. Robert acted with our best interest in mind. For example, although we selected a particular name brand paint, he suggested we use a more cost-effective (yet equal quality) brand for certain ceilings that did not require a unique color, even though doing so would add to his workload as he now had to deal with 2 suppliers
4) Work Ethic. Robert was the only bidder who actually paints in addition to managing his business; managers of the competing bidders would not actually be onsite, which made us wary of quality control.
Before Robert's involvement, we only thought of painting as a means to refresh the house. In fact, our house has been transformed, and we have Robert and Competitive Painters to thank.
Some of the areas for improvement include:
1) Estimate of paint - Robert overestimated on the number of gallons of paint required for the job, costing us hundreds of dollars in wasted money.
2) Quality control - Although Robert was on-site daily, he did not perform high quality control as we had expected. His own personal work is great; however, some of his crew made a lot of paint drips, missed spots, were not careful when taking off and putting back blinds and closet racks, spilled food, etc.
3) Attention to detail - When the drywall repair was done, they forgot to paint several spots leaving white spots on some walls."
