"I called multiple roofing vendors. Most would companies could not be bothered with considering doing a small job. While Walter Brown did not do the original install of my roof, but they definitely did not hesitate to offer to help. From Alicia who answered the phone to Tyler and Lisa who helped getting me on the schedule. Lisa, Tyler - thank you. If I need any type roofing services in the future, I will not hesitate to call Walter Brown. Thanks again."

"I had an excellent experience working with Jose and his team on a number of home improvement / repair projects: sink / vanity installation, toilet installation, faucet installation. He was responsive and respectful throughout the whole process and helped provide me with a number of different options to address various issues that came up along the way. His team was professional on the job and and did excellent work on the project. I’d highly recommend his company for home improvement solutions"

"GREAT JOB! OUR 2300 SF ROOF WITH TWO LAYERS OF OLD SHINGLES WAS REPLACED IN ONE DAY WITH AN UPGRADED SHINGLE PRODUCT WITH A LIFETIME GUARANTEE. THE NEW ROOF LOOKS GREAT AND HIS CREW DID AN EXCELLENT JOB OF INSTALLATION AND CLEAN UP. WE COULD NOT BE HAPPIER."

"WE WERE VERY PLEASED WITH THIS COMPANY. THEIR PRICE WAS THE LOWEST OF THE MANY ESTIMATES WE GOT. THEIR WORKMANSHIP WAS GOOD. THEY COOPERATED WITH ANOTHER CONTRACTOR WHO WAS INSTALLING FLOOR TILE."

"Frank was great to work with and for the most part everything went very well and my wife and I were very happy with the end results.
Things started off slightly bumpy because, unfortunately, Frank got sick the week we were supposed to begin the work so we had to push things off for a week. I totally understand that stuff like this happens so we just rolled with it. It was not such a huge deal except we had to coordinate with our dog sitter to shift things by a week. I think Frank gave us a little bit of a discount though because of the inconvenience so no harm done.
The first few days started with demoing our old bathroom entirely and building out the space into what was previously a small alcove in between our old bathroom and walk-in closet. We felt like it was wasted space that could be better used by the bathroom. This process was done very quick and professionally by Franks team headed by his foreman Renzo. We felt very comfortable working with his team because they were always very friendly and helped us to solve a few minor issues here and there (e.g. where to put light switches and electrical outlets)
Once the frame for the new bathroom was completed, they started to install the shower and lay down tile. Frank was nice enough to let us use some tile we had already purchased from Costco for the shower walls and bathroom floor. We picked out some other tile from the tile shop for the shower floor and decorative lining on the shower walls that Frank procured for us. All of this went very well and once the tile was in we were already immediately happy to see how nice it looked.
We had also pre-purchased a vanity from Costco as well that had a huge crack in the marble top that Frank pointed out to us when we un-boxed it. Frank was nice enough to delay until we could get a replacement delivered to us which took about two weeks.
While waiting on the new vanity, Frank's team started on replacing the entire upstairs carpeting. We had this really old 1980's baby blue color carpet that was pretty horrible and wearing down. We chose a very nice modern charcoal color instead. Frank had a different team of guys to do the carpet work and they were equally as nice. They were very careful when dismantling and moving any furniture in order to strip out and replace the carpet in each room. I was concerned with the furniture being moved and possibly damaged so Frank was nice enough to schedule the work on a Saturday and Sunday so I could be there to supervise and make sure everything went smoothly. As I said though, his men were very nice and seemed to know what they were doing so it wasn't really a problem. The carpet ended up looking and feeling great. 
Once the fixed vanity came in, Franks team did a very good job being careful getting it up the stairs even though it barely fit and was very heavy. I was very worried about it getting damaged going upstairs and his team were experts getting it safely into the new bathroom. The only complaint I had with the vanity installation was that the floor ended up not being level and therefore the vanity was also not 100% leveled. It was only slightly off though so it wasn't too much of a bother. The only way you can really tell is by looking at the vanity mirrors on the wall above it that are perfectly leveled. Regardless, the overall bathroom looked fantastic and we are very happy with it. 
I will attach pictures of the before and after of everything so you can see what a good job they did.
I would overall recommend Frank because he was very knowledgeable, friendly and easy to work with.

"I am a senior with a background in construction.  After reviewing many contractors and speaking with some of them, I immediately knew I hit the jackpot when I spoke to Danny.
 
1.  He knew exactly what I needed and wanted done when I first spoke to him.  This entailed the replacement, repair, and installation of the items listed above with attention to quality in materials, prevention of future problems, a fair price, and a commitment to starting and showing up once the job was initiated.  Danny exceeded every expectation in these regards!
2.  I silently knew in advance manufacturers, quality and cost of exterior doors (including the french door), storm doors, door locks and deadbolts, leak-proof door sills for 6 inch exterior walls and a leak-proof barrier on the bottom of the door frames.  Without knowing of my preferences, Danny suggested the identical manufacturers and materials I had in mind.  At this juncture, we met and I hired Danny to perform the work.
3.  I am beyond pleased with the outcome of Danny's effort on this project.  As an example of his integrity, he asked me to trust him in the design and installation of an exterior octagonal window in a bathroom.  My wife and I were literally blown away with a handcrafted symmetrical waterproof tunnel and inside wall frame he created - more akin to an artistic piece than a window.
4. Inside work was always minimally invasive using tarps and soft shoes rather than work boots.  Outside and inside cleanup at the end of each work day was respectfully performed leaving no mess.
I would recommend Danny to anyone requiring any kind of interior or exterior installation, modification, or repair as I have seen firsthand examples of his experience, skills, and personal and business ethics.  In fact, Danny is presently working on costs to replace our roof."

"We were extremely pleased with the entire process and how well it went despite the size of the job. There were some delays that were not in his control (sub-contractors not showing up on time but did show up) but he handled them in a professional and urgent way and ultimately did not cause the job to run over. Quality and control really stood out to use because his level of quality and expectation of each stage was much higher then you would see from most in this industry. This was especially important because much of the project changed/evolved through out due to wanting upgrades with cabinets and appliances that needed to be replaced through out. Pricing was fair and right in line with 2 other bids we received for the job (Of course it went over because of the upgrades and changes we requested outside of the original estimate). Overall the entire job turned out great and I would and will use Frank and his company for future work. I would highly recommend him and his business to anyone looking for renovations and/or upgrades to their home, I was skeptical due to some of the reviews listed but very happy I focused on the overall consensus of Ruxton."

"Overview of Issue/Repair:
3 Level Townhome (finished basement):
Sliding door off kitchen on second floor was incorrectly flashed.  Due to this, the door needed to be removed, repaired/re-flashed, and reinstalled.  A section of "sinking" kitchen subfloor around this sliding door was also replaced    *Note: at this point we could have purchased a replacement door and had this installed at no additional cost; due to our budget, we decided to re-use the current slider* .  Additionally, a majority of the plywood and window framing below, in the basement, was rotted out. Siding was removed and replaced after all the rot was repaired with fresh plywood and framing.  We did take this opportunity to replace the 2 windows while they were out.
Overview of Experience:
It was apparent from the start that Timothy is clearly focused on understanding and providing what the customer wants/needs and not just obtaining a signed contract.  Timothy met with me in person and on the phone a handful of times prior to finalizing our contract.  Throughout the entire process I felt comfortable reaching out to him for advice and clarification, and never felt as if my questions were "elementary" or annoying.  
Timothy was on site each morning to see progress and ensure that everything was meeting our standard.  It is great to have this interaction with the owner.  Additionally, all of his team is punctual, knowledgeable, and friendly.  They take time to show and educate you as they are performing work.  Our family could not be happier with our decision to go with Timothy's Home Improvement; we look forward to future projects!
Satisfied Customer,

"The job turned out to be a two day job, which we knew in advance and planned accordingly. Had to totally tear out the old tub and surrounding walls. Did run into some minor problems due to being an older house.John did everything he said he was going to do, even more. John was very conscientious in doing the work. He truly does do the work as if it was his own home, even brought the plumbing up to code. Answered any all questions I had with no problems. Will definitely hire them again. Should have done this sooner we are very pleased with everything. Great Job!"
