Carpet Repair
"Sirous came to stretch the carpet in one room, and did and excellent job. I requested estimates for carpet replacement in other rooms, and for carpet removal and exposure of hardwood floors in the living room. Now I have estimates for future jobs and know who to call when my budget allows the work. Thank you SM Construction!"

"I needed a repair on a 17-foot ceiling, over a right-angle set of stairs, and had sought quotes from multiple websites (companies and brokers, or lists). Only two prospective hires responded. One from a different broker was unable to quote due to a car accident. The other respondent was Navids Construction team, who from start to finish was courteous, thoughtful, and professional. They were very careful not to harm or dirty my home or its contents. Most importantly, they practiced very safe construction...safe for the team and safe for my family. In consideration for my family, since the scaffolding had to stretch across widely spread banisters/railing they chose to get the work done in one day, to prevent my family from needing to walk under the scaffolding that night and next morning,. The repair was excellent: a new piece of sheetrock, smooth mudding, and paint. I will definitely hire Navids Construction again."

"Mike was great. He responded expeditiously; gave me great input; and ordered and picked up almost everything needed for the project, using his discounted price when applicable. His team completed my project in a week's time as promised and the job was beautifully done. I will definitely use him again for my next bathroom remodel and any other projects I have."

"They explained everything thoroughly in the beginning, then they kept us up to date during the project. They finished on time. They check back with us to make sure we are happy and if we need anything fixed. First class from start to finish."

"Alex was recommended by The Tile Shop in Sterling to install a new porcelain tile floor in our kitchen. We met with Alex, received a very competitive quote, and hired his company. His people removed the existing 29 year old tiles and Durock subflooring, installed the new tiles, installed new baseboards and moulding, and prepped and painted the walls and trim. Alejandro was primarily responsible for removal of the old tile/Durock and installation of the new Wedi subflooring; Kevin was in charge of the painting; Freddy handled tile installation; and Jose was responsible for touch up work. The entire job took slightly over a week, and Alex arrived everyday to ensure that the work was proceeding to our satisfaction. The entire team was courteous, professional, and efficient. Also, at the conclusion of the project, Alex sent in a cleaning crew to clean ensure the entire first level of the house. Overall, we are thrilled with the quality of the work and plan to hire Alexâ s crew to do additional projects in our home. We have had quite a few companies do work in our home during the past 27 years and weâ ve never worked with a better company than District Renovations. Simply put, if youâ e planning a home renovation project - particularly tile work and painting - you cannot choose a better company."

"Sandy is very talented. She added a great deal of value to our initial design. She is bright and easy to work with. I had hoped for a set of solid plans when I engaged Sandy; I ended up not only with a good set of plans but more important a much better design. Sandy is a true professional and an effective communicator. I am very fortunate to have found her. I do recommend Sandy without any reservation."

HomeAdvisor makes it easy to connect with pros near you. You can read reviews, get quotes and book appointments all in one place.
Depending on the type of project, you may find subtle differences in the hiring process. Here’s a look at task-specific advice.
You can use HomeAdvisor to help evaluate a contractor’s qualifications. We put pros through a screening process, and award badges to high-performing contractors. You can find these badges on a pro’s HomeAdvisor profile, and sometimes, his or her website.
Your research doesn’t stop here. Once you’ve found a few prospective companies, make an call to ask a few questions about work history, licensure and more:
In most cases, the responses you get to these three questions will give you a very good idea of the right pro for your project. If you have more than one front-runner, these additional questions can help you narrow it down.
Any good contractor will answer these questions, and most will appreciate dealing with a client that takes such an active interest in finding good service. On the other hand, if a contractor gives you a hard time with these questions, you probably want to find someone else.
