Bryan Construction Inc.

My father had just passed at the age of 89 and his home was left in total need of remodeling. I was the executor of his estate and I needed to sell the house as soon as possible to cover the outstanding bills that were left behind. I had called a realtor and she came out to give her appraisal of what the house would sell for. She had told me that the house would not sell at all or for a price way below the outstanding mortgage. Come to find out. the house along with interior wall damage, also had water and termite damage. Oh, no! I had a friend who use to be in construction and ask him to come over to look at what can be done. He told me to call a friend of his. Who is Steve of Bryan Construction. I called Steve and left a message on the answering machine to call me back ASAP. It wasn't 5 minutes and he was calling me back. I explained to him my predicament and he said that he would have someone out by the end of the day. The work that Bryan Construction had done was incredible and in a timely fashion. I would recommend to anyone needing remodeling or construction work, to call Steve.

Absolutely frustrating to work with and administratively inept. Were 5 months late (with some items unfinished) from promised completion date on an estimated 5 month home addition and renovation project, despite there being a delay penalty in the contract. Problems started with Steve (co-owner) having great difficulty figuring out the county permit process, as he contends. The county indicates he was slow with the forms and filing. Workers didn’t show as promised on many days, going instead to work on their other projects. We got the “truck broke down” excuse often. Despite constant prompting and Steve’s eager promises, they were neglectful in coordinating with vendors in selecting materials and design components, forcing me to do the vast majority of legwork to keep the project moving. I was mistaken in thinking we were paying them to do this. Luckily, I was able to monitor the work frequently and have experience in construction. I pointed out errors regularly. Steve couldn’t provide a final financial accounting as the project neared completion, adjusting for allowances I paid for directly and contractual penalties. We have asked for this repeatedly and are still waiting. Eight months after Bryan Construction abandoned the project, a group of four employees/sub-contractors came to the home asking me to pay them directly, claiming Bryan Construction had “stiffed” them. It appeared to be an act of intimidation. A police report was filed.
