Get matched with top major home repair pros (general contractors) in Hoover, AL

"Thanksgiving of 2019, I had a house fire and we hired Steve Walden as the contractor to do a complete renovation. At the beginning of the process, we should have immediately fired him. He was not truthful and his employees told us but we did not listen. Our floors are buckling, the temporary electrical pole is still in our yard, the top part of the electrical box is exposed, the french doors were not installed properly and they used different screws to mount the doors. One of our AC units stopped working. We called Mainline Heating and Air only to find out that they were stealing power from the unit to use for a plug they installed. Now the plug does not work. A part of my roof is leaking. The tub they installed is leaking at the bottom, Sheetwork work is horrible. So many issues from calk to paint. I am using all platforms so people can be cautious before hiring this company. They had trash in my yard and the employees act in the house and left food on the floor. I even had to complain because an employee used the bathroom and left stains on my new toilet. I wish I could upload pictures to show the final work. My complaints will not stop here, but I am using every platform so consumers can be aware of this company. His crew finally left my property around Sept 2020 and the work is still incomplete. Update 6-9-2021 ----Walden Home Improvements came back and corrected all the issues I was having!"

"Michael and the Cahaba Building crew were fantastic and a pleasure to work with. They did the work professionally and on time. Our home is over 100 years old. The foundation is now repaired and secure. We love the kitchen! We will hire Cahaba for all our future home repairs and renovations."

"Johnny & his crew have made our Hurricane Sally flood repairs so much easier than I could have imagined. Everyone was polite, professional and I have to add comforting. Johnny had them working even before our insurance claim was settled. He promised he would do right by us and so far has lived up to that promise. We still have our kitchen cabinets to be installed, but I am confident that will be just as smooth as the rest of the house."

"They were very professional in helping understand repair cost and process that needed to be taken 10 out of 10"

"The subcontractors from Home Maintenance Associates Inc. Company did an excellent job. I was very pleased with the quality of their craftsmanship. They did very good carpentry work. They had to work about 20 feet off the ground in order to build the scaffold; it was a difficult project. They did a very good job with that. They were pricey though. I had some twenty estimates as it was a difficult deck to build since it was high off the ground. However, I was not impressed with them as I was with Home Maintenance Associates Inc. Company. I decided to go with them because I felt that they had the experience to do the job. I felt that I just ended up paying for that experience. They showed me lots of pictures of the decks they had built in the past. That convinced me more that they can do the job and they did. My experience with scheduling them and everything else went very well. However, they were working on other jobs on the same time so they were delayed a couple of times. It wasn't an issue with me because I wasn't in any rush. I also knew that if I had an issue with the delay they would have given preference to my job. The final deck looks very good. However, the wood is withering pretty quickly, but I can't blame them for it because they just chose what was available. I would use them again in the future."

"Southface Renovations completed a renovation of the first floor of our home in 2021. The scope of work included an addition that was approximately 25ft x 5ft (foundation to roofing), removing two interior walls, demo’ing an existing kitchen, installing 5 new windows, refinishing all existing hardwood flooring as well as adding new to match, exterior painting and gutters, and rebuilding the kitchen including all cabinets, countertops, appliances, lighting, plumbing and electrical. The owner Johnny and project manager Andrew were present on site as often as needed and available by text and email nearly 24/7. Workers were on our property nearly every single day and made good progress the entire time. With a project this size there will always be changes to the scope and problems that come up, and Southface handled each of these completely. They finished the job within the budget and timeframe they promised. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend them to anyone."

"Al was very kind and straightforward. He did initially tried to charge me a little more than the average for the area but after I explained that I had done research for the labor costs and already have materials he got the cost significantly also mention that you found him on Angie's List. I am very pleased with how the floor looks they did a very quick job some very weird layouts because my house is strange though I love its eccentricity. Though it takes a long time to book him because he is usually busy he works very fast, but not sloppily, and the work was completed in approximately 4 days with a small crew of three one of whom was his son. we are almost done with most of our work but I'm a call him back for some minor repairs thing that needs to be completed the only complaint I have is that at least one of the workers is a smoker and I found a few cigarette butts in my yard or in the bushes next to where they were sawing which was not very pleasant. That is a minor complaint though because as contractors go they show up on time and they get the work done and they get the work done well; which, I don't know if you use very many contractors, is unusual and a good thing. Overall I would use them again in a heartbeat and I would suggest them to other people. <br />"

"I needed gravel spread and was very satisfied with the finished product. Ralph responded right away to my request, and had Darryl Murkerson get with me. He did an excellent job, was fast and a really nice guy. I’d recommend both of these guys for any work you need done. I’ll definitely be calling them again!"
