"They removed old pink tiles from my bathroom which took them a week to accomplish. They installed sheetrock and vanity and then repainted wall behind vanity. They installed new 12" x 24" tiles above the old tub and in separate walk-in shower next to tub. a new final plank flooring was put in. New medicine cabinet and towel racks were then install. I had purchased all equipment for bathroom. The estimate for the removal was about $15,000.00 In the middle of the project I was told an additional $7,000.00 was needed do to higher labor costs. I had no choice but to pay a 33 percent increase in order for them to finish the job. I would not hire them again."

"Very responsive, clear and professional. Gave me information I needed and then some."

"Quick, one day service, cleaned up after, friendly they even double checked with us before installing safety handles and shelves to make sure they were exactly where we wanted them."

"Had my bathroom redone and it came out beautiful. The whole process was seamless and the communication was excellent. Will use again for future projects!"

"Chris Manganello is a gem. His level of skill and professionalism surpassed our utmost expectations. He was very easy to work with. He listened to what we wanted, respectfully offered suggestions, and ultimately did what made us happy. I'm so grateful we listened to some of his suggestions as he foresaw that we'd regret not knocking certain walls down. He is meticulous in every aspect of his trade. He cleaned up his "mess" EVERY day including sweeping the floors, putting all his tools in an organized pile, taking out the trash, shutting off lights, and locking the door. He treated this job as if he were doing it in his own home. If something was the slightest bit misaligned (we couldn't tell), he'd take it down and redo it because he knew he could do better. He never had that "it's good enough" attitude. He was excellent in communication as well, which is a characteristic most contractors do not have. We have developed such a rapport with him over the few months it took to finish the basement, that it felt like he was a member of our family. We were sad to see him leave, but we have been enjoying our new finished space immensely which includes a TV/media area, guest room, laundry room, full bathroom, work out area, office, lots of closets, and an unfinished storage area."

"Unfortunately I give BBB a 1 star rating. The project began October of 2021 with demolition, upon completion of each phase I sent an email to Better Built Basement management thanking them for their work effort and identifying items that either required further explanation and/or resolution. As the project went on, I became increasingly frustrated with their lack of communication, lack of accountability, lack of caring, and lack of skill. The straw that broke my back was when Jim (an owner) called me a f’ing c’sucker. Randy, (an owner) sent me the following email: No one has time to read your 3-page condensing e-mails. You have done nothing but complaint. It's obnoxious and draining to everyone you come in contact with. There isn't one person who cant wait to have you out of our lives. I terminated Better Built Basements on June 7th, 2022, here are some of the details of my experience: - The demo crew was excellent in and out in a day and did a great job cleaning up - The electricians were very consultative in their approach to the project, providing input on lighting and outlet placements. - Framing was mediocre. Despite using laser equipment, one wall was wavy and the ceiling grid has a large gap. Pictures attached. - New steel stud framing and pre-hung doors should be dead on straight as an arrow instead, two of the doors has an aesthetically noticeable skew. - The replacement to an existing door resulted in using the wrong hinge set for the existing mortices, inclusive of color – all the other hardware is brass they used chrome. Picture attached. - 3 of the four doors were either chipped or cracked. BBB was notified before the ‘final’ paint job, but they failed to address the issue. - I returned home the day they applied joint compound to find glops of joint compound on the floor, which I tracked around my house, and glops on wood work on a floor where no work was occurring. Pictures attached - Following the flooring installation, they left garbage in my basement for 2.5 weeks, then did not take it when they came back – in frustration I disposed of it myself. - Many of joints on the ¼ round trim molding were caulked excessively to cover up sloppy miters. - Cracked switchhplate was not replaced. Picture attached. - Sub-contractors have sub-contractors, who seem to be able to sub contract – direct employees of BBB other than the demo and electrical were rare. BBB demands using a lock box, Many people have the combination, providing little sense of security over access to the home. Overall, BBB does a bad job communicating, managing expectations and fails to deliver on their stated objectives at best they are contractors not craftsman."

"The work was done timely and beautifully. Kevin is a joy to be around and easy to communicate with. He’s conducts his business with integrity and thoughtfulness. He genuinely cares about people. I’d highly recommend him."

"Great! Super thorough, knowledgeable, time and cost effective. Will be hiring again in spring!"
