“We hired Booski to prep and paint the interior walls/trim/wainscoting of our "new" 100yr old home. They did a wonderful job! They came by right away for an assessment quote. For prep work they did a lot of meticulous scraping and sanding of the chair rail and trim, and it looks so much better than before (there was lots of bubbling and chips, plus a few hundred holes in the wall from the previous owners). They are very pleasant to work with (and seemed to like our dogs which goes a long way), the painting looks fantastic, and they checked in with us about any questions along the way or issues that they found. We just hired them again for an exterior job, and they were able to fit us in under a short timeframe also!Services: Interior painting“

“I'd give 4 1/2 stars if possible, but not the full five.We hired MasterBuilders to replace our existing open side porch with an enclosed porch. It was a fairly small job so we had a somewhat difficult time finding someone to take it on. Anderson from MasterBuilders was immediately responsive when we reached out to him for this. He came by almost right away, had very good, solid ideas of what the project required, and his quote was extremely reasonable. He also gave us really good feedback regarding the question of if we wanted the porch heated or not. (We decided on not, because it would have greatly raised the cost, but also because Anderson was correct that with the insulation, it would work as what we needed for our purposes.)He said it would probably take two to three weeks for the project, which I knew enough to calculate out to really mean likely six weeks. We were okay with that - it was a small enough project that we knew it was going to be fitted in between other ones.He started the work quickly, and the tear-down of the old porch was done in the first week. Things got slower after that, but still moved along fairly steadily, a bit at a time. The general structure was up pretty quickly, and we were extremely pleased with Anderson's vision - the way the roof was constructed worked very well with the existing roof of the house, the stairs and materials were all of good quality, and the guys doing the work were very diligent and polite.I will say that the project did slow down greatly at that point. Weather definitely had a part in that - it was extremely rainy for a while there - but the final items (moving a doorbell, which would have been better done much earlier in the project, but wasn't done until the very end, despite repeated reminders on our end, installing a ceiling light, doorknob, and drain spouts) took three more weeks and a lot of follow-ups for the project to be completed.I do want to make it clear that Anderson was immediately responsive every time we reached out - I think he responded to any text we sent within two minutes! - which I much appreciated. But there would often be a lag of days at a time between when he said someone would show up to do the work, and when that actually happened. Not the biggest deal in the world, and the work would eventually get done, but just a note, so you can set expectations with regard to communication. I would have liked more communication from Anderson's side, but I also want to make it clear that at the end, every part of the project was completed to our satisfaction.All in all, the project took eight weeks and a day. The end result is truly phenomenal and I really do believe that Anderson's design work was ideal. The porch looks like it's always been there, and we are absolutely thrilled to have the new space for coats and shoes and dog stuff.See pictures - I included before (open porch) and after (enclosed porch) shots.Service: Home renovations“
