Excellent service

By Connie F., Wade, NC, Verified Reviewer

He did a great job. He clearly knew what he was doing and took time showing me how to operate the generator once the breaker box was wired for it. We called him on Tuesday and he was able to come the next day. This was amazing because the storm was due to hit the following day.

Remodel

By Diane F., Peabody, MA, Verified Reviewer

I am very pleased with the performance from JNM Construction. Nick was very professional and has an amazing skill set, he was able to take the dilapidated apartment rental that we own that had been demolished by previous tenants and completely transform it. He installed brand new cabinets, remodeled the whole kitchen, his plumber and electrician were able to give us a brand new drain system, update the electrical. He fit our budget for $24,000, had all the hardwood floors done over. He also is an on-site contractor, we were very pleased.

BuildZoom rocks

By Jason S., Lancaster, PA, Verified Reviewer

I had a great experience using BuildZoom to find a local window replacement contractor. I ended up going with Ronafa Window & Door out of Ephrata, Pennsylvania. The work they did was excellent and I'm thankful to BuildZoom for getting us connected.

So thankful I found BuildZoom

By Elizabeth N., Pembroke Pines, FL, Verified Reviewer

I struggled for months to find a reliable contractor. When I found BuildZoom, I was optimistic about having their professional help and guidance. They quickly provided me with several options for contractors and I found the perfect contractor for my project.

They have been super professional and reliable and I am very satisfied with my decision and so grateful to BuildZoom. I will definitely use their service again in the future and recommend them to all my loved ones.

Will definitely be hiring again soon!

By Chrystal C., Cecil Township, PA, Verified Reviewer

Dylan and his crew did an outstanding job! They worked two long days to completely fit my living room. They hung a new board. Then plastered the ceiling and walls. My living room was brand new once more! Dylan and John were very polite. And even explained the whole process so I knew what was going on. They cleaned up so well it was cleaner when they left than when they got here. When they were done I had a beautifully textured ceiling and smooth walls. The walls were the smoothest I’ve ever seen. I highly recommend these guys!

New construction

By Maria A., Inverness, FL, Verified Reviewer

I contracted with Walter Family Homes to have a new home built. When my construction loan expired after a year, only the land had been cleared, permits obtained, and a survey done. Consequently, I did not get the new home. Walter Family Homes did reimburse me the money not used.

Scam company. Stay far, far AWAY!

By Michael M., Florida, Verified Reviewer

This company is a complete scam. I never signed up with them or asked to be part of my program and now there are two complete bogus reviews and they do nothing about it. They say the exact same thing and neither have ever been clients. They want me to jump thru a ton of hoops to consider having them remove them. Screw them and stay as far away from this piece of crap company as you possibly can. Feel free to contact me anytime to discuss.

Amazing experience!

By Amy F., Florida, Verified Reviewer

They were very fast, affordable and clean. They even had a magnet out there for a while picking up nails. I'm still yet to find a single nail in our yard. The roof looks perfect and no more leak. Thank you for all your help. We couldn't be happier. I would recommend them to everyone. Titus and Tyler were both very professional and polite. We called many other roofing companies and the others were either no shows or way too high priced. Thank you, thank you, thank you!

Would definitely hire Midwest again

By Heidi A., Denver, CO, Verified Reviewer

Do your own research

By Rich B., San Jose, CA, Verified Reviewer

Customer service is non-existent. Emails, phone calls, and text messages go unanswered. They sent a contractor's name to me. I contacted the contractor they came over and I was waiting on a bid. Started doing my own research and found contractor had an expired license through the CSLB website. When I brought this to the attention of BuildZoom, they said the contractor had a license. Never heard from the contractor again. Another contractor had a 1-star review on Yelp. This is what you get with this service.

The other creepy thing is they can see when a contractor emails and calls you including the length of time you spent on the phone talking with them. I have asked to remove all my information from their site we will see how long that takes. I cannot see a way to close my account myself. I will keep trying.

Bottom Line: No, I would not recommend this to a friend

BuildZoom enables construction scams by not researching contractors

By Letesa I., Northern, GA, Verified Reviewer

Although BuildZoom claims to research and verify the information on the contractors on their site, my contractor was a complete con man with a record. BuildZoom couldn't have done any background verification on him. Steer clear of BuildZoom and Tony Dwayne Woodall - A Plus Remodeling (Gainsville, GA).

They gave my info to the fraud/scam company!

By Shiva K., New Jersey, Verified Reviewer

They gave my information to a fraud company. I made a contract for the company that BuildZoom introduced to me and the company got my money and never showed up!

I contacted BuildZoom and they never responded to me. Don't trust this company!

Multiple great experiences

By Sasha A., San Francisco, CA, Verified Reviewer

I have used BuildZoom on several occasions when I decided to take on the General Contractor role for my full gut home remodel. BuildZoom assisted me in finding licensed contractors for several trades for my project. Generally, all contractors gave quotes after reaching out, and the ones I picked did a good job. In the few instances in which the contractors were unresponsive in the quote phase, BuildZoom customer support did a great job of getting me in touch with different contractors that picked up the slack. I would definitely use BuildZoom again.

Experience with BuildZoom

By Konstantin C., Belmont, CA, Verified Reviewer

I used BuildZoom on a few occasions when looking for contractors. One of these occasions resulted in hiring a contractor, but on others I found a contractor elsewhere. In all cases, BuildZoom allowed me to get in touch with contractors that I would otherwise have no link to. I was also assured by the background checks, available information, and a trusted authority to moderate my interaction with contractors. Importantly, it is very easy to start and get in touch with contractors. Because of this, I always get a bid from some contractors on BuildZoom when working on a home project. It never hurts to hear multiple opinions and get multiple bids.

Helpful!

By Emily G., Davis, CA, Verified Reviewer

I submitted my project through BuildZoom and they were really helpful in getting me qualified contractors. We changed our scope of work (from a balcony to a deck) and they helped find us better suited contractors. Customer service was great! Plus the contractor they recommended, Sapphire Decks, was very good.

Outstanding service

By Ian S., San Francisco, Verified Reviewer

The team at BuildZoom was extremely helpful in helping me find the right contractors for my kitchen, then helping me negotiate the contract. My original quote (before I found the site) was $122,000 and BuildZoom contractors came in between $100-130k. After all was said and done, I paid $95k and am very happy with the final result. I have recommended them to several friends.

Cox Construction

By Martin T., Ocean Springs, MS, Verified Reviewer

They came out and replaced the plywood and shingles and rebuilt a sunroom that was destroyed by a bad contractor and then flooded. They were awesome and professional; they treated me with kindness and respect. If you need the work done fast and right, Cox Construction is the one.

Awful company, most likely a scam

By Rick R., New Jersey, Verified Reviewer

I'm seeing this on both sides. One as a contractor who wasted his time chasing leads where homeowners were not even sure who BuildZoom was. More than 70% had already contracted someone else before I received the lead. Total waste of time. Clients I was able to speak to said that BuildZoom called them repeatedly when they had requested a contractor from another website. Not BuildZoom. They are extremely disorganized. I would receive texts with phone numbers to call them back, and it always went to an answering machine. I would not waste my time with this company.

Bottom Line: No, I would not recommend this to a friend

Company Response from BuildZoom

Nov 15, 2018

Can you please respond directly to me and I can look into the situation. People will often request options from other sites and use BuildZoom as one option.

Ram 24 Construction kitchen countertop remodel

By Donna M., Albuquerque, NM, Verified Reviewer

Ram 24 Construction - I used this company for a remodel to my kitchen and was very pleased! I had waited many years to put granite in my kitchen because I was worried my backsplash, which is travertine, would be ruined while removing my current countertop. I was also having a hard time making a final decision on the color of granite. Ram 24 made the process so easy; they walked me through the process in helping me with the color choice, which I am thrilled with, and removed my old countertops and saved my backsplash! They have a very personal touch in a very professional manner, which was wonderful and so reassuring. I love my kitchen and was thrilled with the workmanship and speed at getting it done!

Not on customer side (scam)

By Roberto S., Florida, Verified Reviewer

The company that I hired through BuildZoom ended up being extremely incompetent. The company asked me to pull permits on my name because it was supposed to be faster this way. The contractor did everything in its power to be fired. All this guy wanted was to get the first chunk of money.

BuildZoom would not publish my review of the company. Try to call the customer service, and you won't get an answer.

Whatever you do don't hire The Pine River Company (Rick Munne) and don't use BuildZoom as your contractor search platform!

Scam

By Winnie A., Brooklyn, NY, Verified Reviewer

Do not trust this company. They wrote to me in a private email to ask about my experience with my architect. Then they posted my words on their website with my name attached to it without my permission. They gave a star rating to my architect without me doing it, so they basically invented me as a user and invented my rating. I feel like they stole my identity to build content for their site and it’s ridiculous. You cannot trust anything on the site.

Bottom Line: No, I would not recommend this to a friend
