Ikea kitchen instal Marathon

A very easy labour job as Neil would say, months behind quoted start date. Communication is not something this company or the owner or his staff can handle meaning you dont know if they will be in the next day or for several days. No craftsmanship pride or respect for the final product. This was a simple rip out and replace sure I paid the extra for the electrical upgrades, sure I made some changes as we went along and yes a new pantry did I pay for it I sure did, I would not recommend simply because owner is to focused on his new shirt, Neil had the nerve to tell me my home was not as much a priority as his pontoon boat he was getting serviced that was a fun delay where they just didnt come. I provided all the material you simply had to install and still I had to fix and finish your job.
Want more photos just ask :) keep reading its time well spent
Yes thats a sharpie on my drawers to mark the handles fun eh?
Yes thats under a window that was going to be fixed lol

Wanna see the island thats even funnier with trim just not installed.

Just approach with caution and consider just going and hiring the neighborhood children to do the work at least you wont have to pick up the cigarette butts from the kids right?

I have waited almost a year for this post so you can be assured this is just for the good people of the internet land and not emotionally motivated.

We set a high standard for ourselves, and we're so sorry to hear this was not met in your interaction with our business. In the work order, it clearly states "Price does not include: prime, paint, pot lights, flooring, baseboards, window finishing as per Client." If you wish to discuss items that were on the work order, we would be more than happy to rectify those issues. However, these items above were the responsibility of the client to save you money. Please do not hesitate to reach out to us so that we can rectify issues that were the responsibility of FRC and we will gladly take care of that. Thank you.

Basement and dry wall inside and outside

They are great company, friendly, workmanship is great. They say it like it is with the repairs so I like the straight forward honsety. Did the whole job as promised. Super friendly. Just need work on communication. Let me know if you are coming the next day or not. Otherwise I would recommend them. The boss comes by to over look things so that is nice. So to me was not that big of a deal. I would give them 4.5 stars out of 5. It's just for the communication part.

Large deck redesign with pergola

Neil and crew did an outstanding job and delivered a first class product in terms of tear-down of 2 old decks resign of one large deck with pergola and replacement of side door steps and railing.
Lots of good advice and expert knowledge went into this pressured treated deck with pergola.
I would trust Neil any time with a complex renovation project.

From Porch & Overhang

Was looking for a complete tear out and redo of front porch and adding a overhang as well before the winter season because other porch was becoming unsafe.

After meeting with the owner and discussing the plan, I went ahead and booked them.

They were a very professional team, and being a women homeowner I didn't feel like I was being talked under, the owner and his crew explained things to me when I had questions and ananswered any questions I made had.

There workmanship and work was absolutely amazing, I would definitely hire them again for future projects. They took pride in the work they do, and also left the area as clean as it was if not even cleaner.

I would strongly recommend this company to my friends and family since they did such a amazing job.

Deck Reinforcement

Neil and his team exceeded my expectations. They rebuilt our old deck structure, greatly increasing the structural stability. Neil, Chad, Abdu and Peter were friendly and hard-working. Despite some extra work which was not in the estimate, Neil stuck to the original price. It was a pleasure to meet them, and I plan to have them come back to do more work in the near future.

Great service and great work

This is the 2nd time we've used FRC. They did a beautiful job reconstructing our front stairs to make them more accessible for my mom. This time we had them put a walk way in to make it easier for her new walker and wheelchair and they installed grab bars inside for safety. They were fast and conscientious. They wanted my input through out both projects and offered suggestions when I wasn't sure. They're a great team and I look forward to hiring them again.

Multiple Jobs: New Door, Garage Ceiling

Note: I was surprised I had note yet posted a review for FRC on HomeStars as I have used them a number of times in the past two years.

Neil and his crew have been amazingly responsive to our needs, completing the work and going above and beyond with better ideas.

Last winter, they finished our garage ceiling, refilling insulation in areas that had not been done during home construction.

The last bit of work involved adding a new doorway in our basement, complementing a closet reconstruction job that had a bizarre angle. The end result looked like the room was designed like that from the get go.

Highly recommended!

Thank you Carol for choosing FRC INC. for fixing and insulating your garage. We're happy to hear that the floor above the garage is much warmer and cozier to the feet.

Happy holidays to you & the family!
