Get matched with top traditional stucco install or completely replacers in Whiteford, MD

"Iâ m going to begin this review by saying, I have never hired someone to do a job on my house where I have been completely satisfied with the labor and the finished product. Until now. I just hired a company to remove my existing shingle roof and replace it. Not only is the finished product of excellent quality, but the technicians were extremely diligent in making sure everything was done with precision. The entire job even down to the clean up afterwards is outstandingâ ¦. I highly recommend Coxs Roofing and I will be using them whenever I need roofing work done. Oh! And they also had the best price quote out of three estimates I received. R.L.H. 1121 Roland Heights Ave. 21211"

"I contracted Romero’s to apply stucco to the exterior of my cinder block foundation and to reconstruct a retaining wall. Expert job and I highly recommend their work."

"They were very punctual and very efficient. I was constantly checking on the job and all the workers were very professional, and helpful with any questions or doubts i had during the job. I would recommend this company to anyone who wants reasonable price with great quality!"

"Fantastic. Jason, a co-owner, came out the day after calling Goode. His estimate was fair and very detailed. No surprises. The 3 man team was just outstanding. Punctual, polite, highly competent. Gave me suggestions to improve on my choices, keeping the bottom line the same. I used Goode for a large indoor painting job in 2014, also excellent. This company is a real gem. 2019 update: Still a strong 5 stars for this company. Completed power washing the house, deck, chimney and all brick or sidewalk surfaces in one day -- like new. Did 3 indoor repair and painting projects better than what I imagined with perfect paint matching. Strongly recommend."

"I called DiFatta Masonry contractors and Sal (the owner) came out the very next day. He was very thorough and explained that the stucco failure was caused by improper drainage around the basement steps. He explained exactly how it would be fixed and what needed to done to correct the drainage problem. His crew showed on time on the scheduled date, did an excellent job and were very polite and professional. I was very pleased with the price, attention to detail and quality of workmanship. I would hire this company again."

"I am extremely satisfied with the work provided by Anthony and his crew.  I had very prompt service.  My roof was inspected and I had a great quote the day I called for service.  I was able to have a 25 year roof installed for what other companies were quoting me for a 15 year roof.  The job involved removal and replacement of fiberglass shingles, flashing around vent pipes, and clean up.  The complete job was done in one day with no one home.  If you are looking for quality service and a fair price I strongly recommend Anthony and his team!

"I had an excellent experience working with Jose and his team on a number of home improvement / repair projects: sink / vanity installation, toilet installation, faucet installation. He was responsive and respectful throughout the whole process and helped provide me with a number of different options to address various issues that came up along the way. His team was professional on the job and and did excellent work on the project. I’d highly recommend his company for home improvement solutions"

"Company was responsive to request for a quote. Work was scheduled for the following week. Workers showed up on time and completed the job quickly."

"Price – The original estimate was reasonable, BUT – the contract called for progress payments that provide Ruxton with close to 90% of project cost when less than 30% of the project is complete; Angie’s list advertised $800 discount was immediately eliminated by contract wording; close reading of contract showed that home owner will pay for any overages on selection allowances, but will not receive credit for those selections that come in under the allowance; we discovered that items shown on Ruxton drawings but not included in the contract will be at owners cost plus all appliances are at owners cost; we had requested that barn doors be included in our project. We were told they were expensive to obtain and agreed to pay $2400 apiece for them. Later we discovered they were procured from Home Depot for $499 apiece and installed in about 4 hours plus several hours for staining. Our contract specified the installation and ducting for a gas fireplace with a $2800 fireplace allowance. We selected one of the lower cost gas fireplaces for $3200 and agreed to pay the additional $400. When the job was already 45 days late we were informed that we would also be responsible to pay for the ducting cost, $1000, and fireplace installation cost, $1500. After several discussions, Ruxton agreed to cover half of the $1500 installation cost. Quality – The design and completed work has been good, BUT – rework was a constant frustration; ceiling above bar area was installed too high and had to be lowered; proposed glass shelf area was built only 3 inches deep and was eliminated by owner to reduce rework; two other shelf areas by barn doors were built too high and had to be modified; three solid wood doors were ruined during the staining process and had to be replaced; part of engineered hardwood floor was loose and had to be removed and reinstalled; two other areas of the hardwood were gouged during appliance installation and had to be pulled up and repaired; custom book shelves were ordered 12 inches deep instead of contract specified 18 inches deep and had to be modified on site; the electrician installed the wrong switches which had to be replaced; electrical wiring was not installed correctly resulting in finished wallboard having to be removed and replaced; and a twenty amp electrical line for a planned microwave was pulled but blocked by shelf installation and is not available. The bathroom shower tile was installed leaving out the trim tile. The owners removed the tile before the glue set up. We gradually lost confidence in Ruxton’s ability to work without oversight and towards the end of the job canceled a vacation to be home monitoring the work. Despite the difficult construction process, we are generally pleased with the appearance of our new family room and bath. Responsiveness – Most of the above quality issues have been corrected by Ruxton. After many complaints by the homeowner, Ruxton made some efforts to improve the rate of progress on the job. Unfortunately their efforts were too little and too late to make any real schedule improvement. Punctuality - The contract specified that the project would be completed in two months. The project has extended to over four months, more than twice the estimated duration. In addition to the issues describe elsewhere which caused delays, the project was prolonged because it was only staffed an average of two and one half days a week. We were informed that Ruxton was unable to staff the project full time due to sickness and medical issues of their contractors, contractor doctor and dental appointments, higher priority projects, contractor truck problems, and contractor personal issues. Several times subcontractors were scheduled to meet with the Ruxton foreman at the jobsite at 8am. However, the Ruxton foreman was usually not punctual forcing the homeowner to describe the work to the subcontractor. Professionalism – Frank Zeberlein’s architectural design for our project was good. Communication with Frank Zeberlein to resolve the many issues that arose during the project was very difficult. The three main Ruxton contractors that performed most of the work on our project treated us and our home with respect; however they all quit three weeks before job completion, and had to be replaced by Ruxton. Project management, coordination, and communication during construction were dismal. Frank rarely came to the site to check on progress even though his office is only 5 minutes away. The Ruxton design coordinator never visited our home. We made all of selections within the first two weeks of the contract, but many items were ordered late or not ordered by Ruxton. This resulted in delays waiting for cabinets, granite, tile, bathroom lights, and gas fireplace. The job foreman was constantly being distracted by other jobs and seemed to be unable to plan more than a day or two ahead. Materials for the job were picked up on an almost daily basis, instead of planning ahead and improving efficiency by purchasing supplies needed for the next few weeks. Scheduling of subcontractors was often untimely. Communication with us was poor throughout the project. We were routinely given milestone completion dates that were missed. Several times we were told what work would be done the next few days only to have the workers pulled off the job for several days to work elsewhere."
