Get matched with top traditional stucco repair or partially replacers in Mckenna, WA

"Why can we only leave a 5 star rating? Christopher and crew exceeded our expectations for our restoration project. Our project was to replace the decorative wrap on the 16 foot support columns on the entrance porch at the front of our house. The original wrap was 20 years old and parts had begun to rot. During the bid process Christopher suggested that we replace the wooden wrap with a Hardy plank type material that would last longer than wood. (the original wood wrap was painted). During the removal of the original wrap we noticed that the wrap framing was fairly lightweight, just enough to give the wrap something to be nailed to. Christopher removed the lightweight framing and installed a stronger frame. The new wrap that was installed looks considerably better and richer. The attention to detail, down to the router work on decorative panels, is impressive. Christopher was very responsive to our questions and every day they left the worksite spotlessly clean."

"When we decided to remodel our cramped galley kitchen, EcoStar Remodeling was our first and only call. Foster came up with a design that made our small space feel twice as big, with smart storage solutions and a layout that actually makes sense. He helped us pick durable, eco-friendly materials that still look amazing. His crew showed up on time every day and were always respectful of our home. Best of all, the project stayed on track, no endless delays or surprise costs. Now our kitchen is bright, functional, and feels like the heart of our home."

"Marlo and his entire crew were very profesional and did an excellent job, I highly recommend them"

"Had SD Express (Honeycomb Construction) paint our garage and WOW - it made a huge difference. Overall very happy with the outcome and service provided by Eugeniu and his brother and would hire again (have already recommended him to family members). I sent Eugeniu an email and he replied promptly and came by for an in person visit to provide an estimate (I was only interested in prime / paint at first) but Eugeniu recommended that we mud / sand the walls first to give the garage a smoother finish. The estimate process was easy and when we agreed upon a date / time for service, Eugeniu was professional and arrived on time each day. Eugeniu and his brother covered the paint site with appropriate protective cover so the paint would not stain the floor or a few of our personal items that we left in the garage. They applied mud the first day, sand and prime the second day and painted the ceiling and walls the 3rd day (white ceiling and grey walls). The paint job made a huge difference - what was previously unfinished we now look forward to organizing and making it a useable space"

"We are extremely pleased with the final product. Our kitchen went from a 90s blah to a beautiful contemporary kitchen. Very fair pricing for the product delivered. The painters were punctual, professional and just plain enjoyable to be around. I would not hesitate to hire again or to recommend to anyone with painting needs."

"We were preparing to put our house on the market and had hired another company to install wood flooring in a family room. Once they pulled up the prior flooring, we ran into issues with the subfloor and found moisture in a wall. Our realtor recommended M&I and we reached out in need of a fast turnaround. They were fantastic - responsive, thorough, willing to work us into their schedule and able to address a number of unexpected issues. They ended up replacing an entire outside facing wall, trim, paint, removing and reinstalling a sliding door, addressing root cause of the water getting into the wall and replaced another outside door + trim. We were very grateful for their high quality work and willingness to go the extra mile. Highly recommend!"

"The painters were very courteous, very professional. They asked all the right questions they gave all the right suggestions and they did an outstanding job. I would hire them again in a heartbeat. I do hope that others in need of painting will hire this team because they have the ability and experience To take on any outstanding Paint tasking."

"The quality of the work was outstanding, however, there was a lack of follow through for the work performed, and the project took longer than expected. Otherwise I am am quite happy with the finished product."

"Decided on a price that included prep, materials, and the pouring of the concrete. the day before the pour the guy came by to prep the areas and he showed up with what looked to be 2 of his sons that were under 14 years old. But what ****** me off was him telling me that it would cost extra to get rid of extra debris from him leveling the areas, an extra ($200). I told him no way and to figure somewhere else to dump it. He ended up dumping it behind my property line. The next day, I thought fresh start let see how they do, Overall the work was decent but in some spots a little sloppy. But what took the cake was, when the concrete truck came he needed cash to pay the driver. So I paid him the whole bill in cash. I had the exact amount to pay him for the whole job, being that I was just at the back and got the exact amount. He took the money didn't count it, then after the work was completed and all was said and done he knocks on my door and tells me that I shorted him 200$. I told him no way that was possible. I believe he either paid the concrete guy to much or was unhappy the day before I wasn't willing to pay for a dump run that he should have quoted me. I handed him some spare cash I had and he left. I Learned when paying cash. Have the guy count the money in front of you to make sure you don't get screwed."

"TLDR; Driving progress is up to you.  Painter is incompetent.  Will miss every deadline.  No green building acumen.
  I hired Joe to add a bedroom to my house and pour a concrete pad for another room.   It was a straightforward project he estimated would take 2.5 months (10/1-12/15).  He volunteered the 12/15 completion date so I put fines in the contract if substantial work was not completed by 12/25.  From the architectural drawings, the only thing that changed during the project was the size of one window and the additional removal of a 3 foot interior wall.
  10/1, the work started and within the first two weeks, excavation was done, the foundations were poured, the framing was done and the windows and trusses were ordered.  Within a month the trusses and roof were on and the windows were installed.  So far, so good, but this was all done by one sub.
  Then things started going in slow motion.  I moved out for the month of November so they could get the dusty indoor work done without disturbing my family.  There were only 3 things completed in November, the electrical was roughed in, two small (5 foot and 3 foot) non-load bearing walls were removed and there was a day or two of digging on a retaining wall.  Disappointed in the progress I asked him twice for a schedule with the remaining tasks and dates.  Although he said he could provide one, he never did.
  He was supposed to have the drywall and insulation done by December 1st (a date again volunteered by him), so my HVAC contractor could install a ductless heat pump.  I had to push out that date by 2 weeks.  Also due to him missing the schedule, I was heating an uninsulated room for 3 days.
  For the siding, outsulation and exterior window trim, he set up 3 meetings to go over it with my architect.  The first one, the sider didn?t show.  I wasn?t around for the 2nd one.  The third time he sent a sider who had never worked with outsulation before.  To his credit, he paid for the 3rd meeting.  Although the architectural drawings went into explicit detail, the sider required handholding to understand them.  My architect was visibly frustrated explaining the installation process to him over the language barrier.   The sider charged $8000 for 4 days of work.  It was $2900 over Joe?s original bid.   This seemed high for 2 reasons.  1. A bid from a competitor who specialized in green building, had worked with my architect before and was familiar with outsulation bid $5600.   2. When I asked the sider why the caulk job was so bad, he revealed he had used a random day laborer to help.  When I asked Joe about the price, he stated that the price was fair because there were several surprises, and he had asked the sider to come down in price.  Not buying this explanation, I called the sider myself.  I asked him if he had provided Joe with a bid before he started working and he said no.  I asked him if Joe had asked him to come down in price and he said no.  So Joe essentially wrote him a blank check with my money.
  By the beginning of January, electrical still hadn?t been hooked up, there were no doors or gutters and the porta-potty and trash heap remained.  I?d had enough of Joe?s work and I wanted him to tie up the loose ends, give me the final bill and get out.  I handled all of the interior work, hanging the doors, doing the trim, painting, patching the drywall and installing the flooring to wrap this up as quickly as possible.  Unfortunately, after the initial bit of electrical was done on 1/6/15, I stopped the fines.  Joe went back into slow motion.  I?ve attached a full timeline so you can get a taste of this.
  Probably the biggest debacle of the project was the exterior painting.  I had told Joe I wanted to have him do the exterior painting, but I wanted it done when the weather was nice.  Ignoring my request, his guys came out to paint on 1/15/15. It was sprinkling when they arrived, but they shrugged it off with ?It wasn?t raining in Federal Way.?  More and more rain kept coming, so they covered their sprayer to protect it while they continued painting.  Then it started a downpour.  All the paint washed off.  They returned the next day to continue.  It rained again that day.  They didn?t prime any of the bare wood and painted it while it was soaking wet.  Not surprisingly, very little of it adhered to the wood.  I fired the sub in charge of the painters because he was supposed to do some work inside like hanging the doors and doing trim work and I didn't want him trashing my house any more. They came out again to paint, this time it wasn?t raining.  But the paint job looks terrible.  There remain bubbles, drips, uneven coloration and almost bare wood in places.  (There is one picture from the first day and all the remaining are as it looks today) I told Joe to hold payment for this until they did it right.  Joe has repeatedly told me he would make it right, but hasn?t delivered.  I scheduled a meeting with the painters to come out and review their work, but they never showed.  Also telling is Joe didn?t look at the paint job himself when he came to collect the final payment.
  Twice during the project I was approached by his subs asking for money.  Although I paid Joe the day he asked, it was clear there was a considerable delay with money flowing to his subs.  First the concrete guy showed up at my door and I got a lien notice from the company, the second was the door guy.  The door guy said, it takes a long time for Joe to pay.  It took over Joe over 2 months after his last day to collect the invoices and present me with the final bill.
  Something as simple as grading a 20 foot driveway and hauling out the trash, spanned 2 weeks to complete.  The worker trashed the retaining wall and left a bunch of concrete debris which I had to get hauled out myself (see picture).  Also of note, my circular saw mysteriously disappeared after the driveway guy used my table saw.
