Get matched with top second story addition builders in Frisco, TX

"I set out a point by point Project Plan, agreed that I would supply and pay for all materials, reviewed the project plan with Willard and we agreed on a price. Although he said it may be as much as 2K more, I was prepared to deal with this when we got to the end of the agreed upon price. I paid over half the total amount up front as I trusted Willard having hired him for small jobs before. My family and I were leaving on vacation just after the first 1/2 week of work. Willard told me that he had to go see his sister, but his crew would be working while he was gone. We returned and nothing but the bathroom demo had been done. Willard returned and shortly thereafter started wanting more money. I was not happy with this and found out he had spent all the advance money I had given him and was now unable to pay the sub-contractors required to complete this work. His subcontractor showed up at my home to do the new shower I had scoped. At my home, we had this work, fixing 2 soffets and painting them, removing an old gas heater, capping off and fixing the tiles, refinishing the attic, hanging a new garage (interior steel) door, fixing a broken cabinet in my bathroom and re-sheet rocking a panel of wall in my bedroom that had been ruined by the prior owners. In that week, his tile guy built out my shower and it was lovely. The glass doors were not in when he was done so he said he would do this himself. One of Willards guys did the soffet work and painted and it also was done well. In the attic they used a leaf blower to move the insulation around to be able to lay the boarding. There was an argument over how this should be done which I would not get involved in. They finished the attic. The insulation was not put back in place or under the boarding, so now the hallway under this area is hot as all heck during the summer. My husband is going to have to go back and take out the boards put the insultation under them and then reattach the boarding. Willard hung the steel door, but had not cut out the area in the door frame to install the deadbolt. They went back to my other house as it was critical and way behind schedule. His tile guy wanted me to pay him directly, which I did as Willard had no money to do so and had told him I would pay him. So for all the work I listed to be done at my house. The door still has no deadbolt installed, the wall in my bedroom and the drawer in my bath were not done, the glass enclosure is in my garage in a box, Back to the other house: Willard had me meet him at Home Depot one morning to rent the stripper to refinish the wood floors and we had a heated discussion as he was still talking about not having money, and I told him he would just wind up working other jobs and doing mine when he had time, if he didn't leave me completely in the lurch and I was not happy with that. At that time we were already at the second deadline he had given me and the only things done were the demo'd bathroom, the plumbing for the shower and tub install (which I had to pay the plumber directly to accomplish), the interior painting (again which I had to pay the guy directly to get done), carpentry work on the outside of the house (which was and is still not painted), 3 steel interior doors hung (done and working), All fixtures in the house which I had purchased new (still in boxes), the countertop in the kitchen (still waiting), installing the toilets, vanities, mirrors, etc in the bathrooms (still in demo condition on both counts). AFter yet more weeks and weeks of this ****, I told him ENOUGH, i"m done. I called the locksmith and changed the locks. Funny thing, all those days he said he would go to my house and never worked, or showed up late. He showed up early to make sure he could get his tools out of the house. I will never, ever hire Willard for anything again!"

"Darren remodeled my home 2 years ago. I was very pleased when it was complete. It looked beautiful. He said it would take 4 - 6 weeks and it took 6 weeks. It ended up costing more because of things they uncovered (I think about $11K?). The craftsmanship has not withstood the test of time. 1) My wood floors keep bowing up - he came back out and fixed them once but won't return my texts now. 2) There is a section on lighting in my house that won't turn on. Again, he had someone come out and fix this once but won't return my messages now. 3) The fixtures in the bathroom are loose. I have a small ranch home and he almost completely remodeled it. While he did a good job in most places, it looks like I am going to have to replace my flooring which is throughout the entire house. Now I am going to have to have an electrician come out and get the lighting right and I am not sure exactly what to do about the loose fixtures but I am sure I will figure that out as well. Very poor service after the sale and craftsmanship does not stand the test of time."

"I had my kitchen cabinets fabricated and installed by this company end of July and am extremely disappointed in the quality. It’s not worth the 40k I paid and does not match the pictures of the owner’s portfolio. 1. The seems/edges of my matte black cabinets have noticeable white-ish edges. When Kuba-Tech installer was installing the cabinets the installer assured me it would come off before they left yet it was not taken care of. This is not the quality I was shown by the owner of his sample. 2. They took incorrect measurements and cut my cabinets around oven incorrectly causing my oven to stick out and not be flush. This also caused the bottom drawer under my oven to not be able to open the easily. 3. They left a big gap on top of my dishwasher. Once again because they took wrong measurements of my appliances. 4. I told the owner exactly the size of my trashcan during the personal consultation with him and told him I needed the drawer to fit two of the trash cans. I was once again given the wrong measurements for that and my trash cans do not fit. 5. Many of the screws are coming out from their boxes. I was told this was high quality material from German but seems more like IKEA cabinet quality in my opinion. How can screws come out of their boxes only after a couple months from barely any use? 6. The worst part of it when I tried to talk to the owner about discrepancies, he totally brushed it off and would help me. He told me to take it up with my contractor who referred him. I paid Kuba-Tech. I had my agreement directly with their company and two in person consultations with their company. To whoever is reading this review, I can say without reservation I would not recommend this company at all. I understand mistakes can happen during contracting and construction, but it is completely unacceptable to not care about your clients and make things right after they pay your company. UPDATE: The owner eventually sent someone out to supposedly “fix” the issues, particularly the visible white seams, but they only made things worse. They used alcohol to rub the edges, insisting that the white seams were just glue. However, it wasn’t glue at all—and the rubbing alcohol removed the black finish, further damaging my cabinets."
