Get matched with top water main install, replace or repairers in Welch, MN

"This company has treated me well, especially Mike Museus, who worked over a year (last summer and this spring) to find out why there was a fluid leak in my new AC unit. The leak didn't affect the cooling of my home so I wasn't concerned, but Mike was persistent, even to returning finally with an "expert" to help diagnose the problem. What they found was that the A-coil above the furnace was full of tiny pinholes. On the day this was to be replaced, Steve came before 9 a.m. to remove the defective A-Coil and install the new one. He worked on it all day, without lunch or a break, leaving shortly after 5 p.m. There was no charge, as it was still under warranty. With all that, he still took the time to explain to me why the replacement was so important: that the defective A-Coil could eventually leak enough to damage the furnace below it. Because he was using solder, I believe, to install the new part, he turned on the ceiling fan in the adjacent room to mitigate the fumes. My only complaint is that a few of my vinyl floor tiles were damaged/discolored by the soldering process. That part of the flooring has had water damage before and is missing a few tiles so, after a day of hard work, he may have attributed the damage to work done before. It's not a big deal; I just wish he'd have said something. I have to hand it to Steve, though; he was working by himself, which frequently required him to leave the furnace area to check the outdoor AC unit, then rush back to the indoor work. I think it might have been a two-person job. At least, an assistant could have facilitated some of the work done."

"Emailed company for an estimate to repair or replace some interior doors. Got a prompt reply and set up a time for the appointment. The owner assessed the job and told us that repair was all that was needed, not replacement. He also gave us some insight into a future job that we are considering and could consider the company for. The repairs were able to be scheduled within a week and the job was well done. Only snag was a little mix up in the time that the job was to start, but this was very minor. Overall we are very happy with the experience. We very much appreciate the experience level of the people we dealt with (Jim and Tom).

"It was easy - they measured and came back to install all within a weeks time."

"Very happy with the final result.  Both the bathroom and bedroom look great.  The bathroom was completely gutted and remodeled with new vanity, tub, tile and toilet.  The bedroom ceiling was un-popcorned, the closet was redone and the room repainted.  New doors were installed for bathroom, bedroom and hall closet.  Sam was great to work with and always made sure the work was being done as we wanted.

"Found the problem and recommended a remediation expert to ride downstairs of water damage."

Hal and his crew were a pleasure to work with. Anytime there was a discretionary call to make, Hal would consult me to be sure he was following my wishes. His crew cleaned up after themselves daily and everyone was polite and friendly. Hal's quality of work is amazing. He cuts no corners, and he makes sure no one else does either! My husband screwed down into the deck a stabilizing bar for the steps that go down into the pool. When Hal saw the next day that my hubby had used a type of screw that would rust over time, Hal quietly replaced them with stainless steel. All the wood was nicely sanded smooth and its a pleasure to touch it.
I was actually sorry to see Hal finish up the project and move on to another job. It was nice having him and his staff around the house. Now I just need to think up another project or two to have him come back!"

"The job went really smoothly. I have an older home which still had the original tile in the bathroom (two layers on the floor apparently!). Paul started the job on time and finished early. He was responsive to my concerns and kept me updated frequently on what was happening. He had good suggestions on design, and good ideas about how to deal with problem spots, which seem to be frequent in older homes! Paul has excellent attention to detail, and I picked an intricate tile pattern which turned out beautifully. The gentlemen who work for Paul were courteous, prompt and helpful. I felt at ease from beginning to end. At this point, y bathroom is the most spectacular room in my house!! I have used this company before, and whole heartedly recommend them."

"They showed up exactly on time.? They had a challenging task of replacing a faucet assembly that was rusted in place, with a faucet that I had purchased.? They were in an out in less than .5 hours.? They were extremely professional and considerate as I was working on the floor directly below them.? A piece that was installed cam loose a few days later, and they were there in a few hours to make sure it was repaired.? It has been three months and all is great.? It was a tough job - as they had to bust out the old faucet, but they stuck to their original Angie's List advertised price."

"From the first contact to the last, dealing with GCM was fantastic!  I put a job up for bid with four contractors that I found on Angie's List, and they were very prompt in contacting me - not quick enough to show they didn't have enough to do but not so long that it appeared they had too much on their plate.
I set up an appointment to meet with Ben Meints to come out and look at what (I thought) needed to be fixed.  He arrived promptly and was professional and personable throughout the entire appointment.  We covered my initial concerns, and then proceeded to look at each area of repair.  One of the big problems was potential interior water damage due to several leaks in a pair of windows and the basement area almost directly below the window.  After having dealt with many contractors over the years, the level of attention to detail in his examination of the problem areas showed through.  He was able to get to the true source of the problems by asking questions about what I was seeing, as well as looking at other factors and really just keeping his eyes open.  Best example of this was when talking about the back deck, he started asking about the materials, any water issues around the sliding door and the basement area below it.  What I thought was an issue with pest damage (the subfloor between the main floor and basement had been chewed through by mice) turned out really to be an issue with the flashing and j-channel between the deck and the house.  Long story short, Ben was able to determine that the repairs that were truly needed were not as extensive as I thought they would be, and based his recommendations on what was needed to repair the damage and stop further damage to those affected areas.  I was initially thinking in terms of tens of thousands of dollars to repair the damage, and was relieved and pleasantly surprised when the estimate came in at a fraction of that.
When the work was to begin, Ben and the crew (Zach and Tom) showed up promptly.  (They actually showed up earlier than I thought they would, which was a pleasant surprise.)  The repairs went off without a hitch, and their pride in their work showed through.  They were also respectful of the fact that my wife was working from home that day, and made sure they had minimal impact on her work.  While all of the work couldn't be completed in one day, they got more done than I thought they would, and it was done well.  They updated my wife on the progress before they began to clean up and prepare to leave, as I was still at work.  I walked in just as they finished updating my wife on the progress, and they still took the time to go over the repairs with me and show me what had been completed and the remaining work to be done.  When it became apparent that the weather would not allow them to complete the repairs the next day, Zach let me know he would return the next day the weather wouldn't interfere.  He and Tom returned the following day, and the repairs were completed as promised.
In all honesty, I contacted GCM because the general contractor I normally used was unavailable, and I needed the repairs done before the damage got worse and winter set in.  After working with GCM, I think I have found a new first option for general contractors.  They take very good care of their customers from start to finish, and I would recommend them to anyone.

"Kyle was the first to respond shortly after I requested a quote from several service companies. I talked with him on the phone and explained the problem and he quoted me an approximate cost of $120. I made an appointment with him for the next day. He arrived on time, evaluated the problem and explained what needed to be done. He ran a special cutter through the drain line that fed into the main drain under the floor. We then checked the drainage of the kitchen sink, which then drained with a vortex. The blockage was cleared. The charge was exactly what he had quoted, $120. I was happy to have hired Kyle for the job, rather than one of the large companies, after having read their unfavorable reviews, about how they quoted a price and then upon evaluating the job, changed the price. In many instances, they didn't fix the problem and either required a return visit at additional cost or the home owner had to hire someone else, like Kyle to do the job right. I was also happy to hire Kyle, because he is a small business owner and I would rather support a single man operation such as his. I would highly recommend Kyle because of his professionalism and ability to solve the problem. In the future if I need other drain cleaning, I will hire Kyle and will refer others to him. I was very happy with his service and price."
