"Paul and his team did excellent work on a large deck re-build and repair. He was able to keep pricing affordable by working with us to keep some of the existing deck that was in good condition. His work on the decking, stair risers, and support beams will give us another long period of time before we have to do any maintenance. Pauls team is personable and professional and we enjoyed working with all of them to get our deck usable again."

"He was very polite and worked hard and on time and he done it for a very good rate"

"After receiving a few other estimates on a sunroom addition plus a screened in porch, we decided to go with Legacy Windows. Mark’s estimate was in the middle of the other estimates and he offered much more flexibility than the other companies we spoke to in terms of customization. He is a great salesman with previous marketing experience. We signed our contract on April 10th. We were told that Mark and his crew were finishing a room and would be able to start in 2-3 weeks with a timeframe of 6-8 weeks for completion of our room addition project. The budget and timeframe worked well for us, so we decided to add replacement windows for the rest of our house (11 windows total). Several weeks went by and our project had not yet started so we followed up with Mark. We were told that there were issues with his current project (did not pass inspection) and it would push our start date back due to the workmanship repairs. During this time period before any work began on our project we would communicate often with Mark to check on the status of our project. The really frustrating thing about working with Mark is his inability to fulfill commitments he would make to us in regards to project timing and when things would be done. Our primary communication with him was via text messages and time after time he would tell us, “we should be starting next week” or “we are going to be making up for lost time quickly” and time would pass and it just wouldn’t happen. Work on our project began when our existing windows were replaced in early June. The foundation for the expansion was finally started in late June and framing started in early July (roughly 3 months after signing the contract). The first crew completed the framing, hired the shingles out, installed some of the cedar siding, and installed one wall of windows. We were seeing decent progress after having such a long wait in the beginning, all the while the commitment issue just kept popping up. We would get a text saying something like, “going to be at the house tomorrow with some stone samples” and he wouldn’t show up. It was annoying, but progress was being made and we were happy with how the expansion was taking shape so we were willing to overlook it. Sometime toward the beginning of August (roughly 4 months after signing the contract), work just stopped. Again, when we would reach out to Mark asking about the status of our project we would be told, “I’ll have an action plan later this afternoon” or “we want to get everything we done we can this week” or “the crew will be there tomorrow and we will be working all week on your project trying to finish”. In the meantime, nothing would be done and we would repeat the process. This went on for over 3 weeks, during this time there was absolutely no work done. Large piles of construction trash and building materials sat in our yard during this time. A great deal of the usable wood began to warp and I am sure that ultimately materials had to be tossed from being left in the elements for so long. After a couple weeks I finally moved a significant portion of the usable wood up onto the deck so it would at least be partially protected. We found out that there was an issue with the electrical and Mark had decided to let Crew #1 go as they were not meeting his expectations, but it was not communicated to us until the end of the over 3 week period. A second crew then arrived who Mark said usually only did work for him on the south side of Indy (we live in Lebanon), but he wanted to get our project back on track. There seemed to be little to no communication between the crew and Mark on what they were supposed to work on so we had to explain to them what was in the contract to be completed. Crew #2 also started making good progress, they finished the cedar siding, got the rest of the windows installed in the sunroom as well as installing the sunroom ceiling. About this time, which was at the beginning of September we had a separate crew come out to do the drywall. Mark recommended them very highly. As it turned out, the drywall was not properly installed or insulated (in some walls there was no insulation), and ultimately it had to be taken down and redone by Crew #2. Crew #2 seemed to be doing a really good job and we were quite pleased with their progress and the quality of work they were doing for us. They were replaced by Crew #3 sometime in mid-September. We were never told why they were replaced, but Crew #3 was much closer to where we lived so I assume that had something to do with it. Much like when Crew #2 started, there seemed to be little communication between Crew #3 and Mark on what they were supposed to work on. So we again had to explain what was in the contract to be completed. All through the process, the commitment issues mentioned previously continued. We were not as happy with the quality of the work done by Crew #3 as we had been by Crew #2 (or even Crew #1), but they did finally complete for the project for us and after (3) failed attempts we finally received a pass from the building inspector on his final inspection. When Crew #3 decided they were finished they never came back, we communicated multiple times with Mark about the remaining punch list items to no avail and ultimately decided to finish most of the small punch list items ourselves instead of waiting any longer for them to finish (clean up, sanding / finishing drywall, etc.). We love the way the sunroom and covered porch area turned out. From contract signing until the end it took a little over six months, but in Mark’s defense he did agree to let us add a brand new window in the dining room of our house to tie everything together at no cost to us as appreciation for our patience. There are things that we liked about Mark’s company and things we didn’t, I have tried to summarize each category as follows: Positives • Price seemed reasonable • It is truly a custom build, no problem with changes we had at any point • Love the way it turned out, looks amazing • Mark seemed to genuinely care about the quality of the product he was delivering to us (he replaced the cedar shakes that had been installed by Crew #1 because he wasn’t happy with the quality Negatives • Our project seldom felt like it was a priority, part of the reason it took so long was because they were over committed on other projects • Commitment Issues (addressed previously) • Construction Trash left in our yard for months • We cleaned up inside more than they did, I understand drywall work is messy. They never swept up any of the dust and they didn’t clean up any of the clumps of dried drywall mud all over the floor. • We finished some of the minor punch list items, just to be done."

"Also hired them to replace a toilet, bathroom sink, sub floor, and dry wall surrounding the area. Had a water leak. The next morning I noticed a leak and they came out can fixed it that day."

"I'm so happy. They were so professional. Did what they promised to do. On time. But, the best part. They were so clean. My yard when they were done was spotless. The workers were respectfully of my lawn and flowers. And the my Roof looks perfect. I would recommend them all day."

"Complete rehab. Very competent pro. In every aspect."

"Our experience was wonderful!  The company is a father and son who work very well together.  They are both very knowledgeable!!!! The son did a beveled tile back splash for us which included a decorative strip.  The decorative strip was a chevron design, which was extremely hard to get right, but I told him he was a real artist, because he was so meticulous.  The result was so beautiful that I wish I could attach a picture!  

We decided to keep our old cabinets but we wanted the refrigerator moved to a different wall.  So they had to move cabinets and build one matching cabinet to cover the space between where the fridge had been and where they moved the pantry to in order to fill in the 10" difference.  The shelves were removed from the old pantry and replaced with pull-outs.  They made the pull out shelves from scratch and they are great!  They then had to basically build a fake wooden cabinet around our new refrigerator to make it look like it was recessed.  They also removed the old spindle molding from the top of the cabinets and replaced it with beautiful crown molding.  This made our 25 year old cabinets look brand new!  We also had 2 of the cabinets moved up 5 inches and moved forward about the same amount just to break up the looks of the cabinets and that turned out beautiful as well.  

They removed the old Formica tile floor that we had and installed a new vinyl planking floor.  We got a new microwave, refrigerator, dishwasher and gas stove and they installed all of those.   They had to remove two old door facings and install new ones because the new flooring was much thinner than the previous floor so the old door facings did not come down to where the new floors were.  They put down new baseboards, quarter round and transition strips for 3 doors.  They replaced 8 new electrical outlets and face plates, which included 3 GFI's, because the old outlets were almond and we needed white.  Several days they were both here for 11 hours. They were punctual.  I really can't think of a negative thing to say about them.  I told them they could use us as a reference any time!!"
