"We lost some shingles after a big storm in April. We called and they got out there quickly and replaced the shingles - and didn't try to sell us a new roof! In the past everyone we talked to for this type of problem did a strong pitch to replace the whole roof, even though it's only 7-8 years old! We'll definitely be back to Supreme when we have the need again!"

"I would NOT recommend at all, especially for the amount of money charged, the disruption it caused with me and my husband’s work schedule, the length of time it took to finally get the project complete. A project like this is suppose to get you happy and excited to see the finishing project. I feel like we waited so long to redo our kitchen and it was ruined by this experience & taken for our $$$. This caused nothing but stress, headaches and lots of wasted time on the phone going back and forth, still with unresolved issues and no callback. I was told the whole project would take 5 days,(Cabinets & countertops). It took over a month, they had to come back several times due to the sloppy work, (even the 2nd installer made comments and shook his head, in disbelief -in how things looked), measurements were not correct, drawers were not aligned and put back properly, then they had to cut my drawers, making smaller in size to fit and look half way decent, excessive amounts of glue left, missing parts, mistakes by the installers, equipment left behind. I was also under the assumption workers were employees not 3rd party contractors, which was sent! Due to so many set backs, it was finally done days before Thanksgiving, therefore unable to host last minute- due to all the repeated deep cleaning needed from all the sawdust. We also were asked for payment way before the project was done. The ladies in the office were always nice, the sales guy was nice,but the production team/supervisors or bosses do not respond & after all the mishaps the installers attitude & energy changed. I will say our kitchen looks better than it did, but expected more for what we paid."

Major home repairs (general contractor) FAQs
A general contractor oversees a project from start to completion. They create the project’s timeline and schedule, hire, manage, and pay subcontractors and workers, and purchase and deliver building materials and supplies. They’ll also acquire necessary permits and HOA approvals, plan and execute necessary project changes, and make sure work meets quality standards.
Hiring an independent general contractor costs between 10% and 20% of your overall project cost, with larger projects incurring fees up to 25%. This fee covers complete project oversight, scheduling, and subcontractor management. The fee ranges from a few hundred dollars to tens of thousands of dollars, reflecting the full scope of the planned work and ensuring seamless coordination throughout the construction process.
General contractors typically provide estimates at no charge, but some may charge a small fee, especially for more complex projects. It's important to secure a written estimate, as it establishes a transparent agreement on project scope, labor, materials, and any additional fees. This helps protect you against unforeseen expenses and ensures clarity before the work begins.
When hiring a general contractor, you must provide an upfront deposit that ranges from 10% to 20% of your overall project cost. This deposit secures material orders, labor scheduling, and initial project preparations. An upfront deposit exceeding 50% is a clear warning sign and should prompt thorough contract verification before proceeding.
