"I highly recommend Edwin and his team at E&V remodeling and a variety of projects. They were true professionals and did a fantastic job with power spraying our siding and replacing all of our outdated window screen mesh with high-quality materials. They also knocked out several 'odd jobs' and exceeded expectations. They were professional, punctual, and very easy to work with. I look forward to working with them in the near future. Rod H."

"Crew arrived on time and completed installation of approx 2500 sq ft of new roofing shingle in about 7 hours. Very professional throughout the process from estimate to completion of work and clean-up. Of three estimates received their price was the lowest by a considerable amount. Very pleased and would highly recommend their service."

"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."

"I recently purchased new construction and could not install the curtain rods myself. I enlisted the help of Fidel to install the rods on 10 windows. He did exceptional work and even installed some blinds for me. I couldn’t be happier and will definitely use his services in the future!"

"

I called his company to give me an estimate on replacing a front portico and after receiving his estimate and a couple more I realized I needed to put some more money aside. While he was there I asked if he could replaced my 32 year old deck boards and stairs.

I got an estimate for the deck which was more than reasonable and signed the contract.  Within two weeks his crew was at my house and finished the job in one day.  I asked if they could stain the deck and railings and he said it would be no problem. A couple of weeks later my deck was stained and again it was done in a day.  The deck staining was $560 extra but the old deck looks like new.

"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."

"Price – The original estimate was reasonable, BUT – the contract called for progress payments that provide Ruxton with close to 90% of project cost when less than 30% of the project is complete; Angie’s list advertised $800 discount was immediately eliminated by contract wording; close reading of contract showed that home owner will pay for any overages on selection allowances, but will not receive credit for those selections that come in under the allowance; we discovered that items shown on Ruxton drawings but not included in the contract will be at owners cost plus all appliances are at owners cost; we had requested that barn doors be included in our project. We were told they were expensive to obtain and agreed to pay $2400 apiece for them. Later we discovered they were procured from Home Depot for $499 apiece and installed in about 4 hours plus several hours for staining. Our contract specified the installation and ducting for a gas fireplace with a $2800 fireplace allowance. We selected one of the lower cost gas fireplaces for $3200 and agreed to pay the additional $400. When the job was already 45 days late we were informed that we would also be responsible to pay for the ducting cost, $1000, and fireplace installation cost, $1500. After several discussions, Ruxton agreed to cover half of the $1500 installation cost. Quality – The design and completed work has been good, BUT – rework was a constant frustration; ceiling above bar area was installed too high and had to be lowered; proposed glass shelf area was built only 3 inches deep and was eliminated by owner to reduce rework; two other shelf areas by barn doors were built too high and had to be modified; three solid wood doors were ruined during the staining process and had to be replaced; part of engineered hardwood floor was loose and had to be removed and reinstalled; two other areas of the hardwood were gouged during appliance installation and had to be pulled up and repaired; custom book shelves were ordered 12 inches deep instead of contract specified 18 inches deep and had to be modified on site; the electrician installed the wrong switches which had to be replaced; electrical wiring was not installed correctly resulting in finished wallboard having to be removed and replaced; and a twenty amp electrical line for a planned microwave was pulled but blocked by shelf installation and is not available. The bathroom shower tile was installed leaving out the trim tile. The owners removed the tile before the glue set up. We gradually lost confidence in Ruxton’s ability to work without oversight and towards the end of the job canceled a vacation to be home monitoring the work. Despite the difficult construction process, we are generally pleased with the appearance of our new family room and bath. Responsiveness – Most of the above quality issues have been corrected by Ruxton. After many complaints by the homeowner, Ruxton made some efforts to improve the rate of progress on the job. Unfortunately their efforts were too little and too late to make any real schedule improvement. Punctuality - The contract specified that the project would be completed in two months. The project has extended to over four months, more than twice the estimated duration. In addition to the issues describe elsewhere which caused delays, the project was prolonged because it was only staffed an average of two and one half days a week. We were informed that Ruxton was unable to staff the project full time due to sickness and medical issues of their contractors, contractor doctor and dental appointments, higher priority projects, contractor truck problems, and contractor personal issues. Several times subcontractors were scheduled to meet with the Ruxton foreman at the jobsite at 8am. However, the Ruxton foreman was usually not punctual forcing the homeowner to describe the work to the subcontractor. Professionalism – Frank Zeberlein’s architectural design for our project was good. Communication with Frank Zeberlein to resolve the many issues that arose during the project was very difficult. The three main Ruxton contractors that performed most of the work on our project treated us and our home with respect; however they all quit three weeks before job completion, and had to be replaced by Ruxton. Project management, coordination, and communication during construction were dismal. Frank rarely came to the site to check on progress even though his office is only 5 minutes away. The Ruxton design coordinator never visited our home. We made all of selections within the first two weeks of the contract, but many items were ordered late or not ordered by Ruxton. This resulted in delays waiting for cabinets, granite, tile, bathroom lights, and gas fireplace. The job foreman was constantly being distracted by other jobs and seemed to be unable to plan more than a day or two ahead. Materials for the job were picked up on an almost daily basis, instead of planning ahead and improving efficiency by purchasing supplies needed for the next few weeks. Scheduling of subcontractors was often untimely. Communication with us was poor throughout the project. We were routinely given milestone completion dates that were missed. Several times we were told what work would be done the next few days only to have the workers pulled off the job for several days to work elsewhere."
