"On 5/29/25 Tristin came to my house and gave me a quote on a new shower remodel with a new toilet, and we signed the contract. I thought $12,000 plus was exorbitant, but Tristin assured me that Long Home uses quality materials, excellent craftsmanship, and excellent service. He told me that they will replace all the pipes, and the shower and toilet will have lifetime warranties. So, I agreed and gave him half down and it was scheduled for the 6/27/25 and 6/28/25. Tristian called me on the 6/5/25 and told me that for the shower I choose the half wall that was part of my existing shower would have to be removed, he said otherwise I would have to pay an additional $1,500+, because the shower I agreed to couldn’t be installed otherwise. I told Tristin on 5/29/25 that I did not want the wall removed, but after talking to Tristin on the 5th I relented and said the wall could be removed and ordered another toilet for my other bathroom. The day of the installation came, and one guy came on time and the actual plumber came about 2 hours late around noon. They started working on the demolition and Tristin came around 4pm to move the power socket that was in the wall they removed. He put a rough patch on the wall and installed the outlet without the cover. They removed my cabinet from the wall so they could take down the wall but never replaced it. They worked until 10 pm on Friday. Tristin was supposed to come out on Saturday to finish the patch and put the cover on the outlet. Saturday 6/28/25 the helper arrived at 830 am and the plumber arrived at 1030, at 450 pm the plumber showed me the shower rod they sent with my shower, and it was too short. He told me to call Tristin, I did, and he said OK Tristin never showed up and the two guys finished at 945 pm without putting the cabinet back up. I checked the toilet in the bathroom where the shower was installed, and it kept running after I flushed it, and I put a toilet cleaning tab in the other one and noticed the toilet lid does not fit right. I texted Tristin on Sunday morning telling him about both toilets and he texted me back on that Monday and said he could come at 4pm. I work nights and did not get up until around 5pm and I texted him and told him that I do not usually get up until 6pm during the week when I work and he never messaged me back. I sent Tristin another text on Saturday 7/5/25 telling him to ask him when he could come out and fix the problems I have. I have not heard back as of yet. Long Home charges a premium price and Tristin told me that I would get premium service, he said this is why they charge so much, but the experience I’ve had is anything but premium, I paid $12,000 and I only have one toilet that works correctly even though the lid doesn’t fit properly, I had to buy a shower rod so I could use my shower, since the one I bought from them didn’t fit, which makes no sense because they knew the dimensions of the shower. I had to have a wall removed that I did not really want removed, because they made a mistake when I signed the contract. I have the outlet in my bathroom wired without a cover, my wall is not finished, and my cabinet is still sitting in my bedroom. I do not mind spending the money for something, but I want the product and the service to be worth the price, I paid for professionals, but this is not the problems you are supposed to have with professionals."

"Sales pitch and ideas were great. Service was not. The company required a 60% down payment and then it took a month longer than I was told it would be to start my project, and that was after several phone calls and emails trying to get information. The company had almost two months to correctly order my materials. On the morning of installation, three Spanish-speaking men showed up at my house, (I don't speak Spanish), that evidently had no knowledge of the subject of my project, because one seemed to be trying to communicate with me about the pool cage area. My project was the porch and sidewalk. Thank goodness that I took the day off from work! One worker called the project manager, which gave me the opportunity to speak with him to learn that he was tied up in traffic and arrived some 1 1/2 hours later without the pavers. After going over my contract regarding materials, he left and returned about 2 1/2 hours later without the correct pavers that I contracted for and no polymeric sand, for which I paid extra. I then received a phone call from Peter, the owner, who told me that if I wanted the pavers that I ordered it would be another five or six weeks! I felt that I had no choice but to settle, because by now my porch and sidewalk are torn up from being prepped for the pavers. The pavers were installed and I was told that someone would come to install the polymeric sand the next day. I tried to contact, Peter, the owner, because no one showed up all day - no response. When I arrived home at 4:00 pm, a man had just arrived and indeed installed the sand and sealed the pavers. Throughout the installation process I was getting very sick. The owner wasted no time calling me the next day for the remaining payment. When I told him that I was in bed with pneumonia and that I would see that it was taken care of the next day, he pressured me to put a check under the mat anyway, after giving me a $160.00 discount for not providing the pavers that I contracted for, and offered to bring me chicken soup! I was not happy. A few days later I learned that two of my sprinkler heads had been covered up, and had to be repaired. Their contract allowed for the company to add charges to my bill for such things when they have to replace something not specifically listed in the contract, but I received no response from the owner, when I sent him an email about my project and my added expenses because of their errors. I realize that my project was evidently a small and unimportant one, but I also know that the markup is typically much higher on a small project. Irregardless, a contract is a contract and your company definitely did not meet my expectations. I treat my customers big or small with honestly, integrity and respect, and expected the same from this company - didn't happen. I have waited several months to post this review, because I was hoping to hear something of an acceptable explanation from the owner after sending him an email that included review information and more, but did not."

"This is two reviews in one: In March 2020 I was new to the Sarasota area, looking for someone to remodel my master and guest bathrooms. I was referred to Jeff and Sarasota's Best Construction & Flooring LLC. The job was done to all my specifications, high quality workmanship, professional, and quickly executed. In September of 2023 it was time to remodel my kitchen, there was no doubt that I would contact Jeff and Sarasota’s Best Construction & Flooring LLC to do this job as well. I could not be happier with the work that was done to my kitchen, the quality of work is exceptional, the professionalism at which Jeff and the company demonstrates adds to the overall quality of the work. I will contact Sarasota’s Best Construction & Flooring LLC for any future projects."

"We had to recently renovate our kitchen. We came across S & W Kitchens and met with their residential interior designer, Aaron Williamson. He was professional, knowledgeable and experienced and immediately understood our expectations and vision. He was there through the whole process from design to completion. We appreciate his meticulousness and commitment and thank him for giving us our dream kitchen!"

"This was our second project with Smith Remodeling (see review of 3/22/20) – this time a complete kitchen and bath renovation. Once again, we got superior workmanship, quality materials and great communication at a fair price. We were away for the summer, but we knew from our first experience we could invite Lisa, Mark and their crew into our home with confidence. Smith uses only its own crew, no subs, and has a great network of suppliers for cabinets, tile, countertops, fixtures, shower enclosures and whatever else you need. Lisa coordinates and schedules them all. Once work began, Lisa was in steady communication via text, email or phone. She sent photos almost every day. If she had a question, she consulted us before proceeding. If we had questions, she answered them promptly. The job was done in less than a month. The results were beautiful. This small company is in high demand with good reason."

"1, the manager Lais Voltolini was late for the interview to get the job at list 1 1/2 hours, her and crew always late for every job. My husband & I always need it to talk to them about been messy and not been on time. overall, the job was not good. The kitchen cabinet was painted and now is chipping, the shower glass door is a big gap, now we can not take a shower."

"I highly recommend Percision aluminum and remodeling. Excellent service."

"Very well. Very honest and professional. Would recommend them and rehire them in an instant"

"Sampson Land Care used a chemical on my pool desk to seal our flagstone. The product they used was incorrect. Company did nothing to rectify the situation. I had to higher another company to remove the product off the flagstone since the product Sampson Land Care use turned the stone white."

"Excellent! From scheduling the review of needed work to completion. Professional, knowledgeable, patient to answer all questions helping us understand what was being done and why."
