"I would recommend that if you were in the need for a remodel or renovation that you consider Brian's Installations. 
We remodeled three bathrooms and had to replace the upstairs subfloor due to settling issues after 30 years. Brian and his crew were selected after meeting with six other contractors. They were the ones who came in closest to our budget. We needed a general contractor who could remodel the bathroom as well as fix the sagging subfloor. Brian started off replacing the half bath and scheduled for a two week remodel. They had the tear out completed by the mid morning on the first day. They finished two days early and on budget. We then moved upstairs where we ripped out our  two full bathrooms. We took off for a week while they worked on the remodel. They had both bathrooms ripped out on a Saturday afternoon on the first day.  They sent us updates and  pictures throughout the time we were gone.  They were able to install most of the guest bathroom in the week we were gone.  By the time we returned, they had the new bath installed in order to use it.   It took almost a few days for them to finish  this bathroom after we returned.   There was a small inconvenience when we were trying to seal off the bathrooms. Each time we use the bathroom we are astonished at the details that Brian and his crew created.     
 
After the guest bathroom was useable, the team proceeded to rip out the sagging old flooring and start the master bathroom renovations.   This bathroom renovation had some of its own issues.  We had to move the wall of the master bath out into the bedroom, where we added a pocket door, removed some of the old closet space.   We went from a single lavatory to a his and hers.   Brian was able to turn an old master bath which I had never used since I moved in two years prior into a place that  I love to start and end my days.    Brian's attention to detail was amazing.      The floors were never going to be level, but Brian and his team were able to make them flat so that I could go back in and install the floors myself.   He also had a brilliant idea to make two cabinets that would fit under the window, this gave us a nice place where we could sit and watch the deer in the front yard.  
We had Brian make some custom cabinets for our bedrooms.   We wanted to take advantage of some of the lost space where the the roof  forms the doghouses. Brian was able to ensure that the walls and roof was properly braced, and created some beautiful cabinetry that provides us a place to store books.
Finally we asked Brian if he could give us recommendations for the stairwell.   The stairwell had the original shag carpet on it with a very small rail.   We had removed the shag carpet and found that the stairs were in good shape but did not match the bamboo flooring that we had installed.   After talking to Brian about the prices for Bamboo Treads and installation, he told us that we could get some hardwood treads and match up the stain in order to make them look similar.   He did a great job of matching up the looks and loved the work he completed.  His attention to the small details like the stair end caps really set the stairwell apart now.    The rail is now up to code in terms of height and ensuring that small kids can not get stuck between the rails.  
If we saw something that needed to be touched up, we didn't like or just didn't work, we worked together to come up with a solution.  Most of the time, he would see it himself, explain the issues and remedy it.    The few times that we actually had an issue, Brian addressed that issue.   Brian was upfront about repairs, costs and solutions.   If we saw something (say a chipped mosiac tile, he would replace it. 
The major issue for Brian (which is a good issue to have) is that  Brian is normally booked up for a few months with other jobs so scheduling can be an issue.   If you know that you are going to do some work, understand that this is a process. Unless you have major issues like a roof leak, you fell through the floor or the ceiling collapsed, major renovations don't just happen.   Call him up, get an estimate but allow him to suggest things that you may not have thought about.   If you consider that this is a process, renovations become much easier.   He can help guide you with many of the renovations by scheduling meetings with local manufactures, recommending grout and paint colors, suggesting granite for the area based off of colors to be used.  
I am not going to say that everything was rosey all the time, but the key was that we communicated with each other and anytime anything major arose, Brian listened and we sought solutions to the problems.  A case in point was a local plumbing subcontractor that was used for this job.   He overcharged for the work and wasn't always working when on the job.   Brian called him out by saying that he was not being paid to sit around and talk.  Brian at the end of the day, if he had to use a sub or recommend someone else to work on a job, was great about ensuring that our needs were met and  that we were satisfied.  
I would recommend Brian's Installations for your remodeling and repair needs.

"Mark and his "right hand," Liz are a pleasure to deal with, they're like friends. I've had Mark's skilled and friendly crew clean the boiler chimney and repair the chimney cap. Mark's crew is clearly knowledgeable and works with care and artistry. Both projects reasonably priced compared to other contractors. I highly recommend Eastern Chimney."

"I didn’t have high expectations because I just moved in a new place. For 189 dollars, no one would do that. It was fine. "

"I feel extremely fortunate to have found Vicki through Angie's List !  She is an extremely talented person who is very easy to deal with. She has a breath of knowledge that allows her to accommodate my tastes, but also ensure that the overall design is in sync with the design and location of my home.  She has  a very diplomatic way of suggesting when I'm going astray with my choices and in every case where she has told me "Trust Me"  I have been delighted ! She is very aggressive in helping me find the best pricing and often times will work with the vendors directly  hence saving me the time.  She also has excellent local contacts.  Everyone I've worked with through Vicki has been timely, professional, and highly competent.
My project is far from complete.  I intend to continue to use Vicki and her expert advice until the end !!!!"

"It went great. Martin Blake (the owner) was very thorough and helpful. His staff was responsive and always available. The work came out beautiful. They were very clean and careful in my home. I would use them again for sure."

"Home Innovations Of Augusta responded to my inquiry almost immediately and set up a time to call the following week. After talking to them on the phone we quickly set up a time for them to come out and price the project. When they arrived, they were very polite and professional. I was not provided a quote but told that they would have to order new cabinet doors. Once Home Innovations Of Augusta got a price on the cabinet doors they would contact me again. That was the last I heard from them. One month after the initial call I sent a follow up message to see if they were going to be able to do the project or not. I again got a prompt reply saying they would look into why i hadn't received a quote. That was the last I heard from them. As my initial conversation and meeting with Home Innovations Of Augusta seemed to go well I had high hopes of some quality work but being completely ignored has changed my opinion. If Home Innovations Of Augusta had continued to act in a professional manner I would have had no issue with contracting them for the work and recommending them to others. As it is you will have to rely on other reviews of actual work completed."

"The quality of Troy's work is excellent.  I gave him a laundry list of items that I needed done.  For everything on my list he quoted me a price of $5000.  When he began and found that he would need to hire someone to finish drywall he asked if we could increase the price to $5750 which I agreed to.   Everything that he completed was done very well.  My husband is very picky about quality work and he is very happy with the work Troy did.  The only problem we had was time.  We were promised that the job would be completed in two weeks.  When Troy ran into problems that held up the job, he did not call me and let me know there would be delays.  I had to call him and he continued to promise new completion dates, that he then again didn't make.  I think all along his intentions were very good, but he became overwhelmed.  He had other jobs running simultaneously and could not keep up.  In the end there were a couple things on my initial list that we had agreed he would do that never were done by Troy.  I had to hire a plumber and another contractor to come finish those items.  I am still waiting for him to complete the repair on my fence.  I paid him $5500 and we agreed that I would keep the final $250 of the price until he came back to do that.  I doubt I wil hear from him again.

"I thought the estimate was a bit off as he wanted 70% up front. I thought that was a little too much for materials for that and I was always told not to put that much up front when you get work done. That seemed like an awful lot to me, that's why I rejected it.

He delayed me a few times when he said he would show up to do the estimate. The final estimate was not what I would consider, the amount was in the area of the other contractors, but the up front percent was off.  Never meeting him in person, his diagram, and all that I would say a B on professionalism."

"They did a very good job. They were quick and I am very happy with the work that they did for me."
