"Went very well. Contractor was timely, efficient and accommodating. His crew were talented and hard workers."

"I've worked with Dave now for several years on projects of less than $1000 and projects up to $100,000. No matter the cost, the same attention to detail is given. I find Dave to be honest, fair, trustworthy, and very hard working. Most recently, D&R Improvements repaired significant structural issues, installed new windows and Hardy siding. It was a large, daunting project, but throughout the process I had confidence in Dave and Wayne's abilities to restore the home to a condition I can be proud of. I strongly recommend them for any renovation, addition, or repair."

"There is no doubt that we picked the right architect for the job. As one can see from the before and after pictures ? Seth is an incredibly talented designer.  He responded to all of our needs (big and small) and was an excellent advocate for us throughout the entire project. Having completed a project of this size we now realize how important it is to have an advocate for the design as well as for the process. Seth made our dreams a reality.    <br /> <br /> Transforming our 70?s colonial home to meet the needs of modern living would be a great challenge. We considered a long list of architects, but after meeting Seth ? we agreed that he was the right person for the job. Seth Ballard understood our vision. He was easy to communicate with and we found his fees to be reasonable. For us, Seth made the design phase fun. He always entertained our ideas, received them with enthusiasm, and, when possible, quickly incorporated our ideas into the design.  There were two existing limitations that had to be designed around ? our existing home and a county restriction on our lot. Neither of those restrictions compromised the design. The final design was beautiful and much more than we hoped for.   <br /> The bidding phase was a necessary exercise for us, however if we had to do it again we would not have done it since there was extra time and cost ?a result of putting the project out to bid to multiple contractors.  In this process we were looking at cost and accountability.  We met with all the builders and reviewed all their bids.  All five bid proposals were within the dollar range Seth gave us before the project even went out to bid, and with Seth overseeing the project all builders would be accountable to Seth. So while we became better educated consumer through this process ? we went with the builder that Seth originally recommended.   <br /> <br /> It turns out that Seth's relationship with the builder is what is most important.  Because our project was so complicated it required a lot of management.  We are grateful that Seth micromanaged the entire project. He made sure that his design was completed as drawn.  Unfortunately,  we had a few considerable unforeseen condition, lucky for us Seth was able to skillfully navigate a solution.  He was able to get the contractors to agree to do the repairs at their cost and incorporate an added a design element that enhanced the entire project!  <br /> <br /> In the end we believe that Ballard + Mensua's fees were recovered by provided us with two very vital cost saving things: 1. A design and plan that was so fully developed resulting in just a few change orders; and 2. An ability to advocate for us when issues and unforeseen conditions came up.  <br /> <br /> We love our house!  We would use Ballard + Mensua again without hesitation.  Through this process we learned that the most important qualities to look for in an architect is his ability to deliver the design ? and his ability to advocate for that design and for his client!"

"The Arnold Schwarznegger of raccoons had mangled the box vent on our roof and had become a very frequent (and very unwelcome) visitor. Anthony came out to have a look the day we contacted him and was able to quickly assess the damage and outline the necessary repairs. Admittedly I was a little surprised at how much this was going to cost me, BUT he also was very honest when I showed him other wet stains on our ceiling that I thought might be due to damage on the roof and told me they were not, and advised how we could deal with them. He could have easily hoodwinked us and padded the needed repairs, but I was impressed by his honesty. We decided to go ahead with the work. He couldn't find the same vent that had been damaged and had to hunt around for an alternative. Even with the difficulty in finding the right vent, and the almost daily thunderstorms, within a week from first contact, the job was complete. I would have never even known they were there except for the fact that the repairs were obvious. Often, when we have had outside repairs done, we find ourselves stuck with the clean up. Not so with Mr. Holden. It is so difficult to find a home improvement contractor who is prompt, competent, and reliable. I'm very happy to have found Mr. Holden, will happily hire him for any future work we need done, and can say that I recommend him without reservation."

"The kitchen was started in January and the first thing that had to be done was completely gutting the kitchen.  Chris then installed new insulation and all of the wiring, and the new walls.  He let me select the cabinets and the tiles for the floor.  He was very helpful with dealing with Lowe's where I purchased my cabinets and my new appliances.   <br /> <br /> Originally the kitchen was the only remodeling I was going to do, but with the quality of his work, I decided to use his service when I needed to replace the windows in my living room.  The original plan was to just replace the windows ( there were three of them) with a bay window, but instead,  I decided to put in the small addition, replace the walls in the living room and dining room and install hardwood floors in them as well. My house is a double-wide modular home that was manufactured in 1975 and the walls are paper thin.  The old stonework on the fireplace had started to deteriorate and Chris replaced that as well.  The addition is great for the grandchildren who like to sit and play my keyboard and have lunch or dinner on their table in there. I also set up my tree and trains at Christmas time in there.  I love the windows, especially the large picture window and the wood sills, which we had made to match the living room floor.   <br /> <br /> Before he left each day, he made sure that everything was cleaned up. He was very attentive to even the smallest of details.  Would I use his service again?  Yes, he would be the first one I would call. <br />   <br /> The photos on his website are from the work he did here.  My kitchen is the nicest kitchen I have ever had and my living-room and dining room turned out much better than I could ever imagine."

"We had no idea of the extend of the damage until Joe began removing windows which revealed extreme damage to our home. Complete removal of the front wall of our home was absoutley necessary. We had to order new windows and doors but the floor also needed repair as well. This project revealed short cuts in the orgianal construction of our home. Every time we opened up part of the wall more damage even to one corner of the house needed new support work as well. All new sideing and trim was required to complete the job correctly.Work was a bit longer than expected but he warned us of the fact due to the nature of water damage and what can result. Neat and tidy job site at the end of the day.Could not have found a better person for the job.In fact he is going to put a new deck on our home very shortly once permits are granted.We chose time and materials which we were pleased.I would highly recommend Grime Construction and definitley use them again."

"Fantastic! In and out got the job done. Careful about not spilling paint and aware of surroundings."

"We purchased a vacation home in Cambridge MD in August 2012. The home was built in 1918 and was in need of additional insulation and repairs to the crawlspace. We contacted Energy Savers, owned by Steve Flippo, in Easton MD, based on favorable reviews we found on Angie's List. We had Steve come out and perform an initial energy efficiency audit, which identified a number of areas that could be improved to increase energy efficiency and lower our energy bills. My wife and I were very pleased with the work that was carried out by Energy Savers and especially appreciated Steve's willingness to carry out the initial energy efficiency audit on the weekend, when we would be present at the property. Energy Savers was very responsive to all our inquiries and got back to us quickly. They even provided us with a dozen new energy efficient CF light bulbs to cut down on energy costs. Energy Savers, and Steve in particular, were very good in scheduling a time to perform the follow on work we agreed upon (insulation of the crawlspace and attic), despite the challenge of Hurricane Sandy. Communication was excellent. The final invoiced cost was close to the estimate originally provided to us. Using a contractor recommended by Steve (West and Callahan), we completed the foundation work (sealing of the now insulated crawlspace) and were very satisfied with the work this other contractor performed (so, kudos to Steve again for recommending a good, reliable contractor). Steve was very knowledgeable about all things related to energy efficiency and was very friendly, courteous, and professional in his dealings with us. I would highly recommend Energy Savers to anyone interested in saving on energy costs. They will also see to it that the client gets any rebate for which they are qualified, which can be a significant savings <br />"
