From planning and permits to construction and the finishing touches, everything was handled professionally and with great attention to detail. > > The workmanship is outstanding, and every part of the project was completed on time and exactly as promised. Communication was clear throughout, and the crew was respectful, tidy, and easy to work with. > > We’re absolutely thrilled with how everything turned out and highly recommend Lou Manea to anyone looking for a reliable, skilled contractor who truly takes pride in his work and has exceptional work ethic. Thank you, Lou! **★ — Houshang Pooyan, Sept. 2024** > We did not have a good experience working with Mr. Manea. one month after starting the project, he left without due notice for two weeks for a vacation and left us and the rest of the team stranded. during this time we were not able to reach him directly. his crew who tried to continue the work without him, made major mistakes and after return he did not take responsibility to fix the issues appropriately. some examples are in the pictures, the wall for the built in fridge was built incorrectly, the rebuilt it but it wasn't 90 degrees. also they finished the floor sealing earlier than they should have so under the removed floor looked different than the rest. **★★★★★ — tfigallo, Sept. 2014** > Lou, the owner, is very professional and always on the jobsite. He remodeled our entire house in the past 5 years: bathrooms, kitchen, exterior, painting, you name it. I couldn't be happier. Great quality work. I trust his entire crew. He always have the same people working for him. He is very neat and detailed oriented. His expertise shows in his ideas, He does small and big jobs which makes me easy to call him for anything. **★★★★★ — Jennifer Carberry, July 2014** > L. Manea recently completed a re-build and footprint change for our wraparound deck. The deck looks great, we get a ton of compliments! Lou and his staff were professional, hardworking and always answered all of my questions. Great attention to detail and results! **★★★★★ — User, June 2014** > We have used Lou Manea for several projects - both large and small. He has replaced bay and 2-story picture windows, painted, remodeled our master bedroom which included enclosing our deck and redesigning our roof line, and he reroofed our entire cedar shake roof. His crew is respectful and trustworthy. I left our house unattended for many of the projects with no hesitation. They leave the worksite immaculate at the end of every work day ## Selected projects - [Home Remodel](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/home-remodel-pj-vj~1655145) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 13 - [Kitchen](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/kitchen-pj-vj~731413) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 5 - [Bathrooms @ Rye](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/bathrooms-rye-pj-vj~731401) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 2 - [Chiken Coop](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/chiken-coop-pj-vj~729775) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 1 - [House Renovation](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/house-renovation-pj-vj~6197394) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 17 - [Entire house Renovation in Weston, CT](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/entire-house-renovation-in-weston-ct-pj-vj~5759902) - Location: Weston, CT - Photos: 5 [See all 6 projects](https://www.houzz.com/professionals/general-contractors/lmanea-general-contruction-pfvwus-pf~881846761) ## Ideabooks - [Forbell](https://www.houzz.com/ideabooks/132174862/list/forbell) — 1 idea - [LManea General Contruction's Ideas](https://www.houzz.com/ideabooks/30537999/list/lmanea-general-contruction-s-ideas) — 3 ideas - [pool house](https://www.houzz.com/ideabooks/92784682/list/pool-house) — 9 ideas [See all 3 ideabooks](https://www.houzz.com/ideabooks/users/lmaneallc) --- *Source: Houzz professional profile.
