Get matched with top closet builders in Waite Park, MN

"AWD went above and beyond to make sure we had exactly what we needed. Their service was excellent. Their cabinets were made on time and of exceptional quality. I would recommend them to anyone."

"They did a fantastic job! Our house is old and has stucco walls and they add able to match the depth of the stucco perfectly and painted to match. Professional with excellent communication."

"I contacted Hentges Carpentry for an exterior door install during the first week of March for an exterior door install after finding them through Home Advisor. Raine, the owner, came and gave me an estimate and luckily was able to get to our project later that week even with the snow and cold. I purchased the door and new lock hardware the day of the estimate although he could have ordered it for me also. He and his coworker Chris arrived on time and got right to work. They did an excellent job and even replaced some rotten wood beneath the door once it was removed. They worked quickly although I never once felt the that they rushed through the job. They were both very friendly and kept me informed throughout the project with what they found and the methods they would use to fix it. The cost was right on par with the other estimates I recieved. I would absolutely recommend them for anyone needing work! Thank you for your hard work fellas!"

"We needed work completed before the arrival of out-of-town guests. Dmitriy came over to do the estimate and provided a time estimate that proved to be extremely accurate. He made a special effort to schedule the job so it would be completed before our guests arrived. He and his drywall installer arrived on time, covered the flooring near the work area and cleaned up thoroughly when the job was done. The drywall finishing was exceptional, and the framing of our closet area looks better than the original, with a custom-made door that fit perfectly. We are extremely pleased with the work on our bathroom and the meticulous workmanship that went into it. We had to reschedule Phase 2, and once again Dmitriy has been very accommodating and willing to be flexible. Based on the results so far, we're really looking forward to the installation of our new floor!"

"I really liked their salesman and he is very thorough. In the past several years they've replaced all our windows. We've like four windows at a time, we have a large home. So I like the salesman and I like the way he explains everything. I like their service department, we had a problem with one of the windows and they came right out and replaced it."

Wow...  Lot's of good and some bad here too.  First - I must say that I've never been involved with an extensive remodel before, so this was a big one for me.  Not having a lot of know-how with building things I hoped to rely on the contractor (GCM) for the oversight and expertise. 

I knew up front (after asking) whether they did the work or whether they used contractors - so, unlike other posts here, I knew what to expect - and this was fine with me - having contractors who specialize in a particular area is probably a good thing.  They could probably be more specific at the outset on this to avoid confusion though. 

As the other poster mentioned - the contractors were splitting their time with various projects - including a rather large commercial project with Pappa Johns.  This also didn't bother me - since I understand that they can't sit idle waiting for my paint to dry, tile grout to set, drywall mud to dry, etc.  This project did tend to drag on through the end of September - which seemed a bit long to me.

Part of the delay - and probably about $1000 added expense was my fault when I selected the most awful yellow paint for both main room and bathroom.  I had them repaint!  It was the best-spent money of the project!

The various contractors were both high and low points. 

Bad:

The people who sprayed the textured ceiling came unprepared - not enough tape to seal off the area - borrowed some duct tape from me, but damaged some painted areas removing it.

The wall that was installed to frame in the fireplace was so poorly done initially that I just about terminated the contract - nails sticking out whole sections of studs that were loose and uneven.

The sad part was that most of the quality control issues I had involved the GCM manager assigned to my project.  A nice fellow but not too concerned about quality.  This was unfortunate because it was what I really needed from them with my lack of experience in these things.

Good:

The tile contractor!! What a great job those guys did.  I had a natural stone tile selected for the shower - and they really worked h****** the placement of the tiles to ensure that they looked well.  It became the nicest part of the remodel.  Even the building inspector commented on how nice it looked!

The fireplace installer - The guy knew what he was doing - but they had already framed the wall for it without checking with him and he was forced to tear out the wall framing to install the fireplace - then GCM had to reframe the wall all over again.  The second reframing was the problem - the first guy who framed - and later came back to repair the reframing work, really knew his business.  That guy was quick and did quality work - as far as I could tell.  This took some skill on the part of contractors and GCM people because they had to work the venting around the main gas line along the outside wall - and gas lines running through the wall they were venting out of.  This left very little room to get the vent installed while avoiding gas lines in the wall and outside, and ensuring safe distance from privacy wall and sliding door.  They made it work and the fireplace looks wonderful and works great.

Finally - and most important, one of the owners, Ben, was terrific and was willing to bend over backwards to make sure I was satisfied with the end result.  This guy was very professional in handling every aspect of the project from the bid - which he was one of the few who came and gave me one, to satisfying my concerns and complaints.

Yes...I would consider using them again (perhaps not the project manager if I could avoid that), but they were up front about the cost - made allowances for multiple changes I requested (move the fireplace, recess the lighting, tile everything, and of course - that repainting issue I created).  With the exception of the textured ceiling sprayers, all the contractors were respectful and friendly and seemed to have a good knowledge of their craft.

"They were terrible. First of all, they were too expensive but I should have probably gotten more bids but I took them in and I just think they didn't deliver on what they did. They put some white trim up in my dining room. They didn't paint it very well. You see all the nail holes and they didn't seal it very well. It still looks like it's not finished. On the window, they took two pieces of wood and they didn't put them from corner to corner. They put them together on a long line. They came in and tried to fix it but they ran out of wood. They left it looking like that. It looked terrible. That was really unprofessional considering how expensive they were. They built on a room for a closet and the walls started falling away from ceiling. I would not recommend them. The closet was usable but I had to have it repaired by someone else. The frame was fine but it started peeling away from the ceiling. Overall, it was below average. They showed up on time. They were professional; they just didn't do a good job."

"Jim was great to work with. Everything was straightforward, honest, and quality."

"Ordy was great. He was easy to get ahold of as I needed to change the time that I needed him more than twice. He was very accomodating and the work was fantastic. He communicated when he needed to and made sure I was happy with the end result. I would HIGHLY RECOMMEND Ordy and his company to anyone who needs to have the trim and doors installed. High quality work and a great person to work with. The basement remodel looked fantastic and Ordy also offered some suggestions when it came time to trim the windows. If I need work done in the future, I will only call Ordy. Tthere is no need to look any further!"

"Jamey at KAC Construction was great to deal with. The gentleman who did the work on the deck was terrific. The deck looks great."
