There was no mess for me and the two rooms he did are holding up beautifully. I would recommend this company without hesitation."

This is my second review for this company. Last year (as reviewed on Angie's list) this company did the floors in our previous home.

We had our floors in our previous home done by this company last year and we were so impressed with the knowledge and expertise that they showed that when we were able to buy our "dream" Victorian home unexpectedly, we did not quote this out. We simply called to tell them to come do the floor.

The floor in our new home is Tiger Oak with a Walnut decorative inlay. If you know something about hardwood, Tiger Oak is not available anymore other than through salvage. So if you want to have it refinished, you have to make sure it is done right as you really can't replace mistakes with similar wood. To complicate matters, the inlay was laid with the grain in multiple directions.

The home we bought was built in 1899 and was neglected in the past several decades. The floors had rot and water damage, but were worth saving due to the rarity and beauty of the wood. Brian was honest with us in that the floors would need a special sander due to the opposing grain inlays and told us even if we did not choose his company, to make sure the company we did chose had the right equipment (and explained what that equipment was).

Because Tiger Oak was not readily available to repair the damage, Brian talked with us about how we could harvest strips from the back of closets to repair the more visible damaged areas. He could have charged us a massive premium to track down salvage wood, but offered us an affordable alternative instead.

The end result was wonderful. The damaged areas were repaired, the floors were brought back to their original splendor and we are pleased beyond what words could express.

If you have a tricky situation with your floors due to age or complications, Brian's expertise is well worth at least getting a quote from. He obviously knows his work and is an honest craftsman doing the work.

"Quick Summary:
Mr. Siders did what he said he was going to do.  He did it on time and within the budget that he proposed.  He communicated well during the entire process.  The finished product worked without fault and looked great.  Absolute Kitchens and Baths has my unqualified recommendation.
Details:
Mr. Siders came on site and provided an estimate for the work to be done (remove old cast iron bath tub and convert to a walk-in shower for a first floor bath) within one week of being contacted about the work.  He arranged a mutually convenient time in the early evening.  He brought a number of catalogs with him as well as photos of his past work.  He thoroughly explained what he would do (in detail including the type of drywall he would use, how it would be taped, primed and finished).  The plumbing in the house was all copper and he explained that he would replace the copper from the shut-off valves in the basement (and install new  shut-off valves) up to the bathroom.  He also explained that he would replace the exterior wall insulation (which was blown-in) with new insulation and a vapor barrier. 
We received a in initial written estimate within the week.  The family discussed various options (styles of glass, types of fixtures, colors, etc).  We wanted a slightly different combination of accessories from what we originally discussed.  Mr. Siders went back to the manufacturer and verified which options were available and compatible with each other.  I usually emailed Mr. Siders and he normally responded by calling me the next day (even on the weekends).  He was able to get the style of glass for the shower doors desired by my mother.  We added grab bars and a hand shower to the original estimate.  Once we confirmed the details, he had a written estimate emailed back to me within a day.  His proposal included good quality Delta plumbing fixtures (not some of the cheaper products found in the big box stores).  The prices he charged for the additional fixtures that
we requested were inline with the best prices that I could find for the parts online. 
Mr. Siders was booked for two months our when we signed the proposal but he started within a few days of the original estimated starting time.  His original estimate was for three full days of work and then several partial days for the finish work as he had to wait for plaster/mud primer to dry.  His estimate was again very accurate and allowed my mother to plan around the
renovation activities.  When the work began, he took precautions against damaging the floor by putting down floor protecting boards.  He cleaned up after himself each day and a more thorough cleanup once the project was completed. 
As with any renovation in an older home, one runs into unexpected issues. This project was no different.  Mr. Siders dealt with each issue as it arose.  One issue was that the new shower had a much larger drain which was unfortunately located in such a way that it ran into one of the floor joists.  He contacted a local plumbing supply and got an offset floor drain to remedy the problem.  When it came time to put the finishing coat of paint on, it became apparent that even with the same color paint that matching the colors between the new and old paint would be an issue.  To make it look right, he washed all the walls in the bathroom and then primed and painted the entire room.  The final paint was to be provided by us (it was custom color that my mother wanted from Sherwin Williams).  Mr. Siders again worked with my mother so that she could wait a day to purchase the paint when it was on sale.  Mr. Siders did not charge (nor even discuss additional charges) for these issues or services.  It is apparent that he takes pride in making his jobs turn out right and look professionally done.
The bottom line is that Mr. Siders did what he said he was going to do.  He did it on time and within the budget in his proposal.  He communicated well during the entire process.  I never waited more than 24 hours (including weekends) to get my questions answered.  He explained to my mother what was going on each day during the construction.  He protected the house from damage during construction and cleaned up after himself.  The finished product worked without fault (no leaks) and looked like it had always been installed (rather than a new installation) to the point that my mother said that the bathroom hadn't looked as good since it was brand new (more than fifty years ago).

"It went extremely well.  Rob was very responsive to my first call.  Brought out samples and advised on best choices.  We agreed on the price and by the next week the materials were ordered and installed.  No fuss and no muss.  This was for a rental condo that I am selling.  I have some additional flooring needs in my own condo, and I will be seeking out Rob's assistance for this work as well.  Quote for materials and installation was the most reasonable one I received.
