"I had a leak in my roof and it was assessed and repaired for $750 with a 3 year warranty. The roof assessment was wrong and the roof still leaked. They then offered to come back and fix the real problem associated with solar panel installation for $2,800- $3,000. They basically fixed a section of my roof that wasn't leaking, so I threw my money away. They claimed the $2800-$3800 included a discount based on my prior service but I've since had a cheaper quote. Honestly, I thought the warranty I paid for gave me peace of mind but technically their repair didn't fail. It was never the actual problem. Very disappointed with this company."

"Evangeline Construction was a blessing for my wife and I! We are very new to the area and looking for honest and experienced contractors. Anyone who’s ever hired-out to remodel their home knows it’s intimidating, and in most cases, a risky investment. Our new house (to us) needed help quickly. Thank God we found this team. My wife and I had previously spent years remodeling our previous home. That being said, we are not naive to the process. It takes a tremendous amount of effort, commitment, and vision. From start to finish, the Evangeline team was transparent, responsive, and committed to making our remodel a quick and easy process, with beautiful results. From floor refinishing, plumbing, lighting, countertops, and customer cabinetry, they did an Amazing job! My wife and I had a clear vision of what we wanted in our new custom kitchen. Danny did a fantastic job delivering on that vision. Because of his experience and skill in cabinet making, there was nothing we couldn’t ask for that he couldn’t accomplish. The custom crown at the end was a great touch as well! Vanessa was extremely responsive! She did a great job scheduling, communicating, and pivoting when necessary. Trust her team! They all work great together, and stayed on task the entire time. Would I recommend them to others? ABSOLUTELY! Without question. Period. Vanessa & Danny, Thank you for everything you’ve done for us!"

A general contractor oversees a project from start to completion. They create the project’s timeline and schedule, hire, manage, and pay subcontractors and workers, and purchase and deliver building materials and supplies. They’ll also acquire necessary permits and HOA approvals, plan and execute necessary project changes, and make sure work meets quality standards.
Hiring an independent general contractor costs between 10% and 20% of your overall project cost, with larger projects incurring fees up to 25%. This fee covers complete project oversight, scheduling, and subcontractor management. The fee ranges from a few hundred dollars to tens of thousands of dollars, reflecting the full scope of the planned work and ensuring seamless coordination throughout the construction process.
General contractors typically provide estimates at no charge, but some may charge a small fee, especially for more complex projects. It's important to secure a written estimate, as it establishes a transparent agreement on project scope, labor, materials, and any additional fees. This helps protect you against unforeseen expenses and ensures clarity before the work begins.
When hiring a general contractor, you must provide an upfront deposit that ranges from 10% to 20% of your overall project cost. This deposit secures material orders, labor scheduling, and initial project preparations. An upfront deposit exceeding 50% is a clear warning sign and should prompt thorough contract verification before proceeding.
