"This was a very involved plaster repair and remediation job, in a very old house. Grady is the only person (or company) who was willing to take on the job and drive all the way from Pennsylvania to our home in Northern Virginia. There are very few people who do this kind of work anymore (we really searched) and he is an expert in his field. We needed to work around his schedule, because he is in demand in the tri-state area, so it took awhile to schedule the work to begin... but it was worth it."

"I am very pleased overall.  From the sales person to the installers.  Everything went smooth and I didn't feel pressured at all.  I told them what I wanted and they accommodated with no harassing upgrades or extra stuff I was not interested in."

"Mark and his team did a beautiful work on our kitchen and bathroom. At first we just wanted to remodel our kitchen only but after seeing final product we let him to design and renovate one of our bathrooms. He turn our soaking tub into walk in shower with sliding glass doors.his entire team was always punctual and they definitely know what they're doing.they had answers to all of our questions. In overall we are extremely happy and will alway recommend him to our friends."

"Ryan's Repair Service was great!  They contacted me first by email and when I had not responded they contacted me by telephone.  Due to my hectic schedule it was hard to find a good day, especially with the weather being so undependable. But their receptionist (she was so polite and professional) worked with me until we came up with a good date for both of us.  Mr. Ryan came in the rain and waited until rain stopped and clean the gutters and then he power washed the sliding on the house.  He got it all done before Christmas 2013.  I couldn't have been more pleased with the service they provided.  Ryan Repair Service did an excellent job, with professionalism and courtesy.

The original plan was for Diana Construction to do a full remodeling of my Master Bathroom (MBth), as well as a Half Bath (HBth).  The HBth was so-so in condition to start with, but the MBth had sorely needed help since the day I had bought the place.  I had decided back then that when I did have a remodeling it would have marked improvements for my needs (such as a shower with ceiling-high tile, and doors & shower spray high enough to handle a near 6-ft guy without him having to stoop deeply; this also included new chair-height toilets for comfort).  The DC contractor representative, Pete Rivera, walked me through the separate contracts for both rooms, and using the Angie?s list deal for the MBth.  Later he drew up a similar albeit scaled down version of the contract for the HBth.  I need to repeat here that the original Angie?s List deal was meant for bathroom work, and was so applied to the MBth work.  The upgrades and additional requirements in the MBth were what raised to cost so; also the HBth was done as a completely separate contract.  

1. Master Bath:  The work on the MBth included removal of pretty much everything. The team nicely gutted the place to start from scratch (while carefully remaining within the assigned dimensions of that room, in accordance with strict HOA rules).  The team rebuilt the flooring (set in mortar) to equal the old flooring, and then added a layer of dura-rock (tile backer) for my tub/shower to reach the ceiling (for later installation of the tiles themselves.  After the tiling and painting, a cast-iron tub brought up and installed with a tall set of sliding doors.  To make the bath even more special, I had DC install a niche (also tiled) in the middle of the shower wall.  Great for placing shampoo and other items!  To top it off ? and to assist me in maneuvering in the shower with some stability, Pete added a combination short grab-bar & shelf for bath items. My bathroom now has a vanity sporting a granite top this time, with recessed ceiling lights, a larger custom all-wood medicine cabinet, and an additional larger wooden wall cabinet over the new toilet.  Finally, an old rickety bathroom closet was revitalized with new open shelving plus a built-in cabinet below with its own granite top for show and practicality.  In the end, this bathroom was transformed from the poor example it was.  At a mere 52 sqft, it's not like those huge palatial bathrooms you?d typically see in ads, but the effort done within that fixed space was beautiful to me!

2. Half-Bath:  As described above, the HBth work was a scaled down version of the MBth.  Like the MBth, the DC team installed tiling, fresh paint, and cabinetry (scaled down of course) with a new sink, faucet, mirror, a beautiful lighting fixture and again a chair-height toilet.  I?ll be adding a little set of shelves myself, over the toilet, but this bathroom has turned out to be a pretty little package.

Concluding remarks: When all was done, I now have a gorgeous pair of bathrooms!  I admittedly wasn't thrilled that the final costs incurred were a few factors above the original Angie?s Deal; but I fully understand that this was something to be expected, given the fact that I had tacked on additional work to this contract; plus, I had very much wanted to upgrade the quality of both bathrooms.  So I accepted that some of the items required for this task would not come cheap, but they will in the long run give great value and are built to last (e.g., cast-iron tub beats cheapo fiberglass anytime).  The DC people were doing really hard work (tearing up the old tile and mortared flooring, cutting and setting tiles, and hauling that iron tub up three floors), but all acted like pros.  Pete Rivera proved to be an excellent employer and manager ? smart, experienced, with a good eye for décor, and not afraid to get his hands dirty or banged up.  I am impressed!  In the future, I believe there may come the opportunity for more work on my place ? and so I?ll keep DC on my speed dial (and of course, keep an eye out for any Angie?s List deals for that later day).

"if it were not for Jamie and his father before him we might have considered downsizing our home as there were so many things over the years that needed fixing and I'm not comfortable doing them anymore, I don't believe there is anything they can't fix or do at a very reasonable price. it is nice to know that there are still handymen out there that offer their services for very reasonable prices. we heartedly endorse Cline Enterprises for those odd jobs that need attention quickly.
