The work was begun and completed within two weeks, with which we were very pleased. The installers were not only professional and knowledgeable, but also very efficient. I couldn't have asked for a better job.

Types of work

We had the furnace replaced, AC replaced, and a new water heater installed.

Areas Of Satisfaction

Exceeded in all areas. I am sure the items we had installed significantly reduced our utility bills. With the installation of a drop ceiling and panel lighting, the basement went from "dismal dungeon" to a bright open area with no dark corners.

Areas Of Satisfaction

I love the floor and the cabinets. They also recommended a pedestal sink because I was trying to create more floor space so my husband could easily get into the bathroom with a walker. The shower is nice.

Dave is an excellent carpenter.

Areas Of Satisfaction

The quality of materials used and workmanship, the timeline and the price all exceeded my expectations.

We had a couple of hiccups along the way where the screens on the screens porch were to be replaced and the porch painted. We thought the screen should be done after the painting so there wouldn't be any paint on the screen. Custom Built decided to have the screen people do it and then the painting, and then paint got on the screen. They didn't factor in the new braces that would have to be put in to hold the screen. They took the old ones off and put it back on and it didn't look right. We got them to redo it, but they charged us extra money for the new slats to hold the screen on. We negotiated a little reduction on that, but they should have known ahead of time they were going to have to replace those slats. I think if they had done that, they wouldn't have put the old one back on and then taken them down and put the new one on. We ended up having to eat a lot of that because the painters ended up getting paint on the screen. We show it Custom Built and they agreed to bring the screen guys back and they replaced the panels that had paint on them. It struck me on some of these things, that if they had sequenced their work better it wouldn't have happened. I was really annoyed that we had to pay extra for the slats to hold the screen on when in my mind, they never should have put the old ones back on in the first place only to put to take them down and put new ones up. We ended up with some headaches and it was annoying and it dragged the process out. On the front of the house, they did some new posts and replaced molding around one of the doors. The vinyl molding, first of all, was put on where the door closes and there was a gap. They should have let the door down so the vinyl molding on after the door was down so they would know there wouldn't be a gap when the doors were closed. I had them come back and replace that, they replaced the vinyl molding around the door with vinyl that had a little less surface area so it turns out that where the old vinyl covered the door at a certain level the new one doesn't so we have this unpainted section where the old vinyl use to cover. I asked them to replace it but it wasn't on their work order. Finally, I got sick of it and will have to replace it myself this Spring. I got tired of bringing then back all the time. They make good on some of the stuff and they really wanted us to be happy with it. There were certain things they could have done the first time and us not chasing them for it. I am still annoyed that I had to pay for the slats on the porch when they never should have put them back up in the first place. Once they were thrown off, they were damaged and everything else. If they knew a new slat was needed, we would have been willing to pay for it. When you have change orders, that is where the contractors kill you. Part of it was the annoyance of having them come back to do something over again.

Clean

There is a lot about Custom Built that is good. The sequences could have been done better and avoided some of this. Good on the cleanup.

They met or exceeded my expectations on the deck, and the posts they put on the front of the house. The chimney work was nicely done.

We had a new deck designed and installed by Michael and his Custom Built Team. We are very pleased with the design and quality of the work. The deck looks as nice today as it did the day they completed the work! We highly recommend this company. Ron and Sharon
