"Unfortunately I give BBB a 1 star rating. The project began October of 2021 with demolition, upon completion of each phase I sent an email to Better Built Basement management thanking them for their work effort and identifying items that either required further explanation and/or resolution. As the project went on, I became increasingly frustrated with their lack of communication, lack of accountability, lack of caring, and lack of skill. The straw that broke my back was when Jim (an owner) called me a f’ing c’sucker. Randy, (an owner) sent me the following email: No one has time to read your 3-page condensing e-mails. You have done nothing but complaint. It's obnoxious and draining to everyone you come in contact with. There isn't one person who cant wait to have you out of our lives. I terminated Better Built Basements on June 7th, 2022, here are some of the details of my experience: - The demo crew was excellent in and out in a day and did a great job cleaning up - The electricians were very consultative in their approach to the project, providing input on lighting and outlet placements. - Framing was mediocre. Despite using laser equipment, one wall was wavy and the ceiling grid has a large gap. Pictures attached. - New steel stud framing and pre-hung doors should be dead on straight as an arrow instead, two of the doors has an aesthetically noticeable skew. - The replacement to an existing door resulted in using the wrong hinge set for the existing mortices, inclusive of color – all the other hardware is brass they used chrome. Picture attached. - 3 of the four doors were either chipped or cracked. BBB was notified before the ‘final’ paint job, but they failed to address the issue. - I returned home the day they applied joint compound to find glops of joint compound on the floor, which I tracked around my house, and glops on wood work on a floor where no work was occurring. Pictures attached - Following the flooring installation, they left garbage in my basement for 2.5 weeks, then did not take it when they came back – in frustration I disposed of it myself. - Many of joints on the ¼ round trim molding were caulked excessively to cover up sloppy miters. - Cracked switchhplate was not replaced. Picture attached. - Sub-contractors have sub-contractors, who seem to be able to sub contract – direct employees of BBB other than the demo and electrical were rare. BBB demands using a lock box, Many people have the combination, providing little sense of security over access to the home. Overall, BBB does a bad job communicating, managing expectations and fails to deliver on their stated objectives at best they are contractors not craftsman."

FAQs for outdoor kitchen building service projects in Waterford, CT
Most outdoor kitchen pros finish the actual build in four to six weeks. That window covers framing, flooring, utilities, and appliance installation. Your timeline may stretch if the site needs extra prep, special-order materials, or you hit a busy season for contractors. Remember, planning, permits, and design meetings happen before the clock starts, so budget extra time for those steps.
In cold or wet climates, winterizing is worth the effort. Seal countertops, drain water lines, cover appliances, and ensure that cabinets and fixtures are constructed from weather-resistant materials, such as granite or stainless steel. Adding a roof or pergola helps protect surfaces from snow, rain, and UV rays. A few preventative steps each fall can keep repairs and frustration to a minimum come spring.
Yes—placing the kitchen against the house makes hooking up gas, water, and power simpler and cheaper. Keep anything that emits open flames—such as grills, griddles, and pizza ovens—at least 10 feet away from siding or other combustible materials. Check local fire codes before finalizing the layout so you stay safe and compliant.
You’ll need weather-rated outlets for appliances such as blenders, refrigerators, and lights. Ensure that every receptacle is GFCI-protected to shut off power quickly if moisture seeps in—a code requirement in most areas. A licensed electrician can run wiring, install the boxes, and add covers that stand up to sun and rain.
