We hired Rich from Give Me Shelter for a laundry room renovation, and could not be more pleased with the result! He was very organized and easy to work with throughout the process and truly is a master of his craft. He handled everything himself from demolition, flooring, plumbing, tile installation and hanging our new cabinets. It was so nice to be able to work with him directly on everything rather than companies who send in various subcontractors to cover all the required aspects of a job. Rich does it all! Despite being a one man crew we were very impressed with his ability to complete all work on schedule as stated in the contract. He goes above and beyond what we expected and has an incredible attention to detail in all aspects of his work. The details of the job were laid out in the contract in an easy to understand format ahead of time, and his prices are very competitive. If you're looking to do home renovations look no further! You'll be hard pressed to find a better option than Rich. We are also planning a few other renovations this year and will be using him without hesitation for all of our home renovation needs!

Rich is fantastic, honest l , and dependable. He was so accommodating to my hectic and unpredictable schedule. I had a small flood from a clogged pipe, which caused some water damage. He fixed my basement ceiling , my floors on the first floor, my light fixtures, amongst other things!! Highly recommended!! You cannot go wrong with Rich Shorter!!

Rich did an excellent job. Our project required several trips to our home to work with other contractors. Rich accommodated our schedule and made working with the countertop installers a breeze. Rich stayed on target with our finish date. And if there were any items that needed additional attention, Rich came right back to make sure that the finished project met with our approval. Job well done Rich. We will be calling you again. Thanks

Rich did an amazing job installing a new tile floor in our bathroom. He is a perfectionist! Our house is a little older and the floor needed to be level before the tile could be installed. His attention to detail and commitment to customer satisfaction was just what this project needed. You can tell by the photo, perfection achieved! Be prepared to plan your project early, Rich is in demand :) Thank you, Rich. Hope to work with you again in the future.

I contacted Richard in regards to installing new flooring, back splash, and a few other items that I needed done. My first project was to replace the carpet with flooring. Richard was helpful and very patient. I didn't know much about flooring, so he assisted by suggesting flooring based on the needs of my family. I was so pleased with the work! Richard is very professional, efficient and down to earth. He's very meticulous about his craft. In addition to the flooring, I had a backsplash added and a wall in my kitchen was completely blank, so that was finished with stacked stone, and it really made my kitchen pop! This was also a suggestion, which I couldn't be more happy about. He installed new lights in my kitchen, mounted my tv, installed a faucet in the kitchen, and a ceiling fan in my living room. I couldn't be more ecstatic with his work, and hopefully I can get on his schedule in 2021. I look forward to working with him again! :)

Rich helped us after a pipe burst in our home. He replaced our hardwood and ceilings on our main floor, ceilings in the basement, and flooring and vanity in our 3rd level bathroom. He did great work! We were very pleased. He's hardworking, knowledgeable, honest and super professional. We look forward to working with him again in the future.

The contractor was on time and does great work. He has done my kitchen in the past so we had him come back and to our bathroom. Unbelievable job and great job meeting out tight timeline.

I had several repairs that had to be made in order to go to closing on my property. My initial contractor dropped the ball and did not get the repairs completed by the deadline. I pleaded for an additional few days to get the repairs done. Rich Shorter at Give Me Shelter was recommended by a friend. I called him and he was able to get an estimate to me, do the repairs and get the paperwork to me for closing within 72 hours. He provided top notch quality work. I will definitely use Give Me Shelter again!

Rich did a great job on the tile work in our bathroom. We would highly recommend Rich for your next project.

This is our first time working with Rich. He completed the powder room within 3 days. Excellent detailing on the herringbone pattern floor tile. The vanity top was updated, lighting and a fresh coat of paint. He does a superb job and we will definitely work with GiveMe Shelter again!

Rich really helped my out when I was having trouble replacing the flooring in my new house. He set aside time to fit me in his schedule last minute to install the flooring and trim and the result looks amazing. He takes the time to make sure the work is high quality and the little extra touches really make the end result look even better.

Rich is amazing. His workmanship is outstanding and is extremely thorough. Rich had several projects to complete in my home and I could not be happier with his work. He started the project when he stated that he would and the cost was reasonable for all the work that he did. I would highly recommend hiring Rich, especially if you want a job done the right way.

Commented: hi! where is the gray area rug from?Not sure where the rug is from. It was owned by the company that did the staging. Don’t recall which one that was.

Commented: Who makes the flooring?I’d have to look into it. I think it came from the PA Home Store in Feasterville, PA. It’s one of their water resistant laminates.

Commented: Kitchen remodel: shoe molding to match cherry floor or white cabinets?I overlooked that scenario. In that case it may be best to do it all to match the floor, so everything would look consistent. What I thought was a wall, I now see is a fridge panel. I would still look...
