Get matched with top major home repair pros (general contractors) in Mandeville, LA

"SUMMARY: SES did high quality work. They stuck to the projected cost. They finished within the estimated timeframe (or at least close enough). PRELIMINARY STAGES: SES promptly returned our initial call and set up a visit by their estimator. Within a very reasonable timeframe (maybe a little more than a week), we had the estimate in hand. In contrast, we were shocked to see how difficult it was to deal with some other contractors--even in the early stage, when we were trying to give them business. DETAILS OF THE JOB: They gutted ~50% of a ~180 sq ft bathroom to the studs; did some framing/re-framing; removed a large tub and patched in some hardwood; completely re-did the mortar bed/tile/plumbing for the shower; re-routed an HVAC intake to a different part of the house; moved/added some plumbing and electrical; installed a new commode and tile floor in a new toilet closet; hung crown molding; installed a double vanity with a stone top; hung a large mirror and frameless shower door; built out 2 closets. QUALITY. Their renovation was high quality and fit perfectly into our 1930’s arts-and-crafts home. They found, sanded, and painted an old 5 panel door to match the doors in rest of the house. The salvaged/refinished pine floor fits into the existing pine floor seamlessly, and the new trim work matches that in the rest of the house. Their tile guy did an outstanding job on the shower—floor to ceiling with a bullnose and a niche. The subs they used for the vanity/stone top and for the mirror/shower door did a high quality job. We designed our closets and the trim carpenter built them out perfectly (soft-close drawers and all). COMMUNICATION. This was a big asset to the SES experience. Ashley kept us posted with an email almost every day. We knew what to expect when we got home from work, as well as what to look for the next day and the rest of the week. In the rare event that there were surprises or delays, Ashley would let us know right away as well as what the resolution would be. While Ashley was the main line of communication, the owner, Shawn, was very accessible as well when necessary. PROFESSIONALISM. All the people we interacted with were professional and punctual. The workers were respectful of us and our home, and they did a great job cleaning up every day. With very few exceptions, people were at the house every weekday (and even some weekend days), from the start to the finish of the project. THE UNEXPECTED. As the work proceeded, some minor structural damage from the old shower had to be addressed and the hot water heater needed some repairs. These were taken care off in a time- and cost-efficient manner. Otherwise, there were a few miscommunications regarding the electrical rough ins, a plumbing valve, the closet build outs, and the shower door. All these were very minor and easily addressed. Along the way—and especially as things neared the end—Shawn made sure we had everything exactly the way we wanted it. This was our first time hiring a contractor. Before our renovation, we had heard many contractor-related horror stories. Our experience with SES was drastically different. We are already scheduling another project with them."

"Our whole project went great from start to finish. From the design work to completing the renovations in our home. Matthewâ s team consistently showed up everyday and finished our project earlier than expected!! Our finished project turned out great and would recommend Lamp Design + Build for any of your design and renovation needs!"

"Samuel is extremely competent, timely, responsive, and transparent. Unfortunately, we had a roof installed a few years ago by a company who cut corners, and STMZ came to repair two separate leaks in the “new” roof. He documented every step of the process with photos, and explained what he was doing. (Most contractors, in my experience, do not take the time to explain the process to you!) I highly recommend his services, and if we ever need to replace the roof, STMZ will be the company we will call."

"It’s good to know someone knowledgeable and trustworthy for home repairs and renovations that does great work! I highly recommend Veteran Home Repair Services"

"Awesome customer service, after hiring someone else who failed to get the job done in 2 weeks. Kennon did all 3 drafts I needed in 24 hours. He also helped me find a general contractor I needed. Even after being paid he still answers my calls if I have questions or need changes. I couldn't ask for more."

"Debbie contacted me immediately in May when I purchased a $149 for 4 hours of wood rot repair.   The weather was a major factor in the delay of the work being completed.  2 men came out and repaired a large hole in the fascia and other wood that had rotted.  They were quick, professional and cleaned as they worked. They went above and beyond in their work.   My only concern was the delay in communication of when the company would be out to do the repairs.   I emailed her thru the Angie web site, with no response.   I called her and she told me the weather was placing them behind in other jobs.  Then she called me two hours before the men came out to do the repairs.     I would use their services again.  I have Debbie's cell phone number and this is the easiest way to contact her. <br />"

"This was a complete renovation which included removing wallpaper and a "popcorn" textured ceiling; repairing and replacing damaged sheet rock then painting the walls, ceiling,and trim; removing old and installing new fixtures (tub and surround, toilet, lights, vanity and sink); tiling the floor and the walls around the tub.  The work took longer to complete than we'd anticipated but this was understandable since Jason did all the work by himself.  He's very conscientious (paid attention to details, put in extra time to make sure the job was done right) and trustworthy.  Jason always let us know when he would be coming, showed up when he said he would, and let us know if he needed to change the work schedule. We're very pleased with the quality of Jason's work and will definitely consider using him again. <br />"

"The work was adequate but they left a mess of cement on parts of the driveway that was not replaced Unfortunately it is now impossible to remove the unwanted cement from my exposed aggregate driveway!"

"<p>GREAT!!!</p> <p><br /></p> <p>If you want a trustworthy, punctual contractor that actually does deliver on their promises,  you want this one!   It was a pleasure to work with Brooks Quality Painting and Contracting.   We have known of this business for some time and we were quite satisfied.  They were professional and they did a "Class A" quality job.    They really care about what they do and they spent extra time making sure they were getting it right.   We couldn't be more pleased.</p> <p><br /></p> <p>Thanks for a GREAT experience!</p> <br />"

"Chuck was the contractor. He took time with us. Showed us some of his work in other houses. Helped us make decisions. Very helpful. We felt he was reasonable and felt like he really cared about the work."
