Best Painting in Philadelphia PA
Rik and Mike remodeled my tiny bathroom in South Philly. From a previous remodel, I had a leaky shower stall that that was tiled and grouted poorly, and they were careful to demo the problematic walls and floor, while salvaging tile on opposing walls, storage cabinets and cubbies, and a medicine cabinet that I wanted to keep.
When the floor came up, we discovered a rotted subfloor, compromised joists and some water damage. This was not something we had budgeted for in the initial estimate, but Rik recognized that the new priority was structural integrity and was reasonable about additional costs for sistering compromised joists, moving water lines, and giving me a new subfloor.
When there were new issues or detours they had to take (the bathroom is in a 100 year old building), Rik ran all changes by me and let me know what options (and their respective costs) we had. At one point, he even brought in a structural guy to double check the direction he recommended we take on those compromised joists.
Post demo and remediation, they installed everything I had bought for the project - the new toilet, the new shower stall, new shower walls, new vanity, new fixtures and new tiling on the floor. That part of the project took the amount of time Rik had estimated, and the only time-related hiccups were caused by the rotting subfloor and joist sistering, which were not foreseen.
Rik understood that my number one priority was making sure that the shower was watertight, and he pointed out different steps during the way that we accomplished that goal. I'll update this review periodically to let you know how watertight it remains.
Finally, there was the issue of construction debris. Rik and Mike did this work in late July and early August of 2020, when the city's sanitation department was racked with COVID-19 and some trash pickup did not occur on schedule. While they put debris in large white bags labeled contractor bags and expected the city to haul them off. However, once city services resumed, the sanitation department (for 2 consecutive weeks) would take all trash EXCEPT the contractor bags and the old toilet Rik and Mike had placed at the curb.
When I notified them of this, Rik did the right thing. Even though our financial dealings with one another were in the rear view mirror and the new bathroom had been completed for nearly 2 weeks, he swooped by 48 hours later to pick up the debris and properly dispose of it.
In all, I was very pleased with Rik and Mike's work, and I would hire them again.

Jamal has team complete a stucco project on part of the house that previous was windows and replaced with a wall. Jamal was reasonably priced, on time and delivered great work. The new stucco transitions very well into the existing stucco. Very happy customer!

I had a pipe freeze on Xmas and was desperate to have someone come out asap, since we didn't have any water all day. Keith was responsive, came out right away, replaced the broken pipe and I'm back in business. I really appreciated communicating through the app, and as well via text. I hate calling places. I'm so impressed, I scheduled more work to be done with Keith, that I had been delaying for months. Thanks again!

Rogelio was such a pleasure to work with! Upon our initial meeting, he asked questions to ensure full understanding of our wants and desires for our space and took photos of the space, which were then attached to his quote/contract. The work started promptly after we retrieved all necessary paint and flooring. Rogelio did offer to pick up the flooring for us, if needed. He worked tirelessly prepping and painting our kitchen, dining room, living room and hallway, even repairing the walls where necessary.
He removed carpeting, padding and prepped the floors for laminate installation. He installed laminate flooring with ease. He was gracious and even allowed our curious toddler to help install some of the flooring.
Overall, Rogelio was a joy to work with and we would highly recommend him! We intend to use his services again in the future!
