-from the CEO@KRC:
Hello neighbor! I hope you find everything you need here to make an informed decision as to which contractor you will go with on your next project. Even if you do not choose KRC, I hope you will mention that you were informed here about the things you should ask when you speak to other contractors. I make it my business to watch them too. I know many of them, and I know what they have been known to do on occasion. Certain things you may not be aware of, you will learn at this website and you will be more careful when you shop around... and by all means, please do shop around... the more you do, the better informed you will become and "THAT" is the kind of client I love to do business with.. (someone who knows) ...and if you don't know.. well, that is my business too. Turning your home into a construction zone is an inherently "stressful" experience.. minimizing the stress is as important as the work we do and, therefore, is a key part of the procedures we employ. So, here is your first lesson in stress management: Shop around, become better informed, leave nothing to chance and get your promises up front, because once the job has commenced... a contractor can hold your life hostage, sap your finances with hidden costs, make changes and cut corners you didn't approve, and generally make a mess of what you "thought" was just a simple upgrade... BEWARE OF THE UNLICENSED UNINSURED SCAMMERS !!! ...and, yes, when you are better informed, I am confident you will return to make some serious inquiries about such matters as scheduling, contract provisions, and insurance coverage. The implementation of detailed designs, building inspections and permit fees are (or should be) a part of any remodel or new construction project. A materials list, a labor quote and some sort of guarantee is standard and you should accept no less from any contractor.
I guarantee my work! ...see you soon - Doug Kendig
Company Contact Information:
Serious inquiries only please... (We would like to KEEP our estimates free)
Jennifer Kendig (General Manager) can be reached at the office to take your message, answer any preliminary questions, or schedule an initial project appraisal. Project appraisals are performed on-site directly by Doug Kendig and usually produce an informal preliminary estimate, followed-up with a formal written quote or a completely documented project proposal, depending on the size and scope of your project. (Yes, these are all free services within a 30 mile radius) out of town inquiries requiring travel beyond 30 miles should expect a minimum $20.00 travel expense to appear on the Estimate -due to increased fuel expenses and an additional $0.50 per mile over 30). If we contract your out of town project, these expenses will be included/covered in the final formal quote. (See: "Company forms and documents" link)
