Troy had 2 guys do the entire job not once checking on the work being done. We had a bathtub installed and the workers somehow installed the tub without cutting into any wall to hook up the drain. The first time we used the tub it leaked to our downstairs and we called Troy who told us it wasn’t the tub. When he finally came out to look at the job it was determine his workers never hooked up the drain correctly when I poured water down the drain and it went all over Troy who was on a ladder in my ceiling . Two years later we have a leak again, this time much worse. The workers installed the faucet incorrectly (confirmed by 2 plumbers) and Troy says it’s a faulty faucet (does this guy take any responsibility for the work his guys do). Not too mention when they did the work his driver ran over our backflow with a trailer shooting water everywhere(which my neighbor saw happen) that both the driver and Troy denied. Also the grout in tub started falling apart 3 months after the job was done. We are having to spend more money to fix the incompetent remodel that was done than it cost to do the remodel itself. After running over our backflow, not hooking up the drain causing a leak and not hooking up the faucet correctly you would think they would help resolve the issue. However , they are refusing to accept any responsibility and at this point its not even surprising. I have a 12 year old child who takes responsibility for his actions better than the adults that run this horrible business. I wish I would have never had this company do any work on my home. We are still getting mold testing and mold mitigation issues resolved and who know the cost or even worse the health issues this has caused my family. **★★★★★ — J B, Aug. 2018** > Troy designed and built out our wood ceilings on our lanai. Troy is fantastic. His work is very professional, and immaculate. Everything turned out perfect. Troy is a talented craftsman. **★★★★★ — The Vision Group, Aug. 2017** > Timely, competent and professional. The Level 4 Team did an exceptional job as our trim carpenters and we look forward to working with them on future projects! **Comment from Level 4 LLC:** > Mike, > Thank you for the feed back and the compliments. We appreciate your business and look forward to continuing to work together. **★★★★★ — Nancy Breen, Dec. 2016** > Lane and Tim installed wainscotting in our home. They are both very skillful and professional. We are thrilled with the completed project. **★★★★★ — Rebecca Rowland, Aug. 2016** > Level 4 has done several wonderful projects at our home: built in bookshelves, French doors, and now a gorgeous back splash in our kitchen. Troy is always on time, his work is beautifully and carefully executed, and he is the hardest working contractor we've used on our home remodel. He is always cheerful and a pleasure to work with. He makes excellent suggestions for solutions when an issue arises and he is creative when planning a project. I will continue to use Troy and Level 4 for any new projects we plan and I can recommend him without reservations. **Comment from Level 4 LLC:** > Hey Rebecca, > So glad you are enjoying your new tile work. Thanks for taking time to post a review for us., Have a great day. **★★★★★ — cliff\_taylor98, Aug. 2016** > Job 1 - Added pocket door in master wing between bath and entry hall for added privacy. > > Job 2 - Added French doors to hall entry to guest bed and bathrooms to match existing French doors to master wing, for privacy. > > \*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\* > > Job 1 - Pocket door was a 36" x 8' door. A wall section was cut open and studs removed. A header was built in and electric switch boxes were resized to allow the pocket door prefab frame to be inserted into the wall to house the door. Drywall was then added back over the framing. The total opening was about 9'6" so with the 8' high door the space above was framed in and drywalled to match area. Trim was added and finishing care was given to the floor area where on one side was wood flooring and the other side tile. Orange peel finish was added to the drywall. The door was adjusted for smooth operation. Latch hardware was added in matching oil rubbed bronze. Drop cloths were used, and vacuumed cleanup was performed at the end of each day. The crew was professional, knowledgeable and friendly. They arrived on time and worked hard each day. Nice job > > Job 2 - Pre-hung French doors 38" x 8' with a 3/4" mullion mounted on one door with a top side lock rail were installed in a hallway opening off the kitchen area for privacy to the guest wing. Other door had a bath lock set ADA compliant handle. All hinges and hardware was in house matching oil rubbed bronze. The opening was 41.5" x 9'6". So again, framing and drywall was added above the door set to match surrounding area. Orange peel finish was added to match other walls. The trim was added such that it matched the way the other door trim in the area was done. The crew worked both jobs to maximize work flow and minimize house disturbance. Again, nice job. > > I would have Level4 back in a heart beat to perform other jobs in the future. **Comment from Level 4 LLC:** > Cliff, thanks you for your review and we are very glad that you are satisfied with the work that was done. Have a great day. **★★★★★ — caroldubin, March 2016** > Troy was fantastic to work with. He was very knowledgeable and finished the job on time...which was vey important to us since we were having a huge family reunion and needed the work to be done by a specific date. Troy installed a water proof deck off of the second story of our Key West style home. It looks amazing and we have had some many compliments. I would definitely call Troy at Level 4 when we have new work that needs to be done! **Comment from Level 4 LLC:** > Carol, > Thanks for such a great review. We really enjoyed putting a new look on the back of your Home, made a huge change. Hope you enjoy many years of "Family get together's". **★★★★★ — thediehls73, March 2016** > Remodel and entire kitchen from floor to ceiling. Install new walls and cabinets. Trim finished all the cabinets and put crown molding in the family living room. Trim molded the back family room and bedroom doorway. There was a lot of work to be done and in a matter of a few days we were able to move into the new house. **Comment from Level 4 LLC:** > Thanks for taking the time to share your thoughts on our work. We are glad you liked it and were able to enjoy for many years. **★★★★★ — Melanie, Jan. 2016** > Level4 created a sitting area with a stone floor, stone fire pit and pergola. I love the end result and Troy was so helpful from start to finish. He recommended painter, electrician, stone provider and engineer and the craftsmanship of the pergola turned out beautifully. I have used this company many times for various home projects and will continue in the future. **Comment from Level 4 LLC:** > Melanie, > Thank you for taking the time to give us your feedback. It means a lot to know that we have satisfied Clients. Thanks for your kind review. **★★★★★ — Bob Jarjisian, Jan. 2016** > Had a roofing problem for some time which no one could seem to correct Troy come and quickly assessed the problem and corrected it.. **Comment from Level 4 LLC:** > Bob, > I'm glad we could help. Hope you are staying dry! **★★★★★ — phylmoran, Dec. 2015** > I used this company multiple times for various projects in my home. They truly are "Masters" when working with wood. Some of my projects included custom bookcases, fireplace surround, built-in window seating (on a curved wall) and coffered ceilings. They also added crown molding, chair rail, bead board and other trimming. > > Nothing accentuates a home like perfectly done custom woodwork and carpentry. Level4 does it right! They have increased both the economic value and esthetic quality of my home. I highly recommend them. Their design skills and high quality craftsmanship are exceeded only by their commitment to service. **Comment from Level 4 LLC:** > Ms. Phyllis, > It was a pleasure to meet you and Clarence. I'm glad your are enjoying all you new trim work. Thank you for your kind review, hope you and your Family enjoy it for a long time. **★★★★★ — ajdrumgool, Nov. 2015** > Level 4 not only offers excellent custom work but they also go above and beyond to assure the customer of their options to improve functionality as well as appearance! I would look no further as the integrity of this company is superior and matchless in their skills to provide a custom look you and your family will enjoy for many years... Not to mention the value your home will assume upon completion! Thank you Troy French and Level 4!! **Comment from Level 4 LLC:** > Ms. Amy, > Always a please to do your projects.
