  Now on to the bathroom which had mold issues but I was patient as I knew renovations were happening soon. They ripped out my vanity and put a new one in and then decided to leave for the day leaving us with no toilet. A carpenter came over and installed the toilet (I wonder if that's a conflict with the Collage of Trades?). When they installed the new vent they moved it over because of the plumbing vent being in the way, so when I came home to the new vent there was a 10"×10" hole in my ceiling with moldy attic insulation falling down into the toilet. So now they have to rip out all my drywall and guess what?? All my new stuff had to be pulled out resulting in my toilet getting broken and the vanity never went back in properly. I guess because of timing they left my bathroom completely gutted with no insulation on the walls making my house cold, but to top it off they left all the drywall screws in the wall for my children to walk into and nails on the floor to step on (we have only 1 bathroom). After this they left us with no bathtub/shower for 8 days! (Not a fun week with 6 people living here). Then to top off their incompetence they left the cover to my vent inside of the drywall leaning against an electrical line.

  This has been the worst renovation project I have ever encountered. They were aware of the time constraints that this project had to be done yet nothing but excuses as far as items on backorder and such were given. I was without a stove for 2 days and without a shower curtain rod for almost 2 weeks so I could not take a shower. They put holes in my bathroom and kitchen walls which are still yet to be repaired, stained my living room carpet,entrance carpet and upstairs carpet. I had no kitchen cupboard doors for over a month . They moved my stand over the toilet and broke it . They left a complete mess that took me over an hour to clean up in the kitchen . They absolutely do not clean up after themselves . No renovations to be done in the living room so there is no reason whatsoever for them to be in my living room and drop Caulking and plaster all over my carpet. The bathroom renovation was just as sloppily done as the kitchen Not only is there holes in the wall but there's caulking all over and plaster the bathtub, the floor, my blinds, counters, floors, walls, the back of my door and toilet still has not been replaced. I found the workers to be very rude and disrespectful and on one occasion came home and my door was left wide open after a contractor had been in there supposedly doing work. Nothing has been completed on time and there's been nothing but excuses. I would never recommend this company and if I could score them at a zero I would.

  Unfortunately I can't leave zero stars but this company is what nightmares are made of. I live in a housing co-op currently getting 3 million dollars in upgrades and this is how professional they are, they rip out my kitchen and install a new one with no doors or covers for two weeks. Then they decide to mud which wasn't done properly and had to be redone the day they came to paint, because of that they didn't sand properly and left chunks behind not to mention areas with drips and streaks.

  If your looking for something cheap then they're your people but you'd be better off hiring a bunch of 15yr olds, at least there you'll get some craftsmanship.
