I hired Kemar and his company for two jobs. My experience has been day and night. For the first job, we converted a portion of the attic into office space. This included flooring, walls, electric, and running ductwork for ac. There was a crew of three always present working full days. While there were aspects of the job I was not happy about (damage to our stove because of a dropped crowbar, damaged drywall to an adjacent room not part of the job, and some carelessness with our existing hardwood floor), but we were generally okay with the work done. For the second job we spruced up an old barn. Kemar said the job would be complete in 3 weeks, yet after 8 weeks there are still tile flooring that are coming up, shards of metal protruding from the windows, screws sticking out from the stair risers, an unsecured bannister, and a very noticeable hump in the middle of the floor. The quality of service was greatly reduced and we will need to hire someone else to fix the work. Rather than three workers, Kemar left a single person that was sometimes not left with the proper tools to do the job or noticeably under-skilled. The most consistent worker did quality work, but said on multiple occasions that Kemar didn't provide enough material, should have given him a second worker, and that some of the work Kemar completed himself would have been done differently if that worker had done it. Two of the other workers smelled like alcohol and drugs and didn't seem to do anything while they were on the job. Kemar would also show up at very inconsistent times ranging from 10 am to 5 pm and worked for around 2-5 hours. There were three days that Kemar said that he was on his way and never showed up at all. It seems that once he received payment he was content dragging his feet and entertaining other projects. My wife and I tried to be accommodating, and expressed to Kemar that we had hard deadlines for the project, but never received any more concern, effort, or a full day's work from Kemar. As a result, our plans had to be canceled. I'm sure that if we received the level of professionalism, respect and care that we received for the first project, this project would have been completed. Kemar is personable and easy to like and it's a shame that this project turned out so poorly. I cannot recommend Home Built Construction in earnest.

Job description discussed with owner not included in estimate. Every handle on cabinets installed crooked. Door installed with no handle or knob. Installed carpeting first before spackling then tracked dirt and spackle on new carpeting . Nevertheless very eager for payment for sub par work. Never again!

This company is a joke. Not one thing they did was right and had to be redone 2 or 3 times. The best decision was kicking him off the project. The guy can't read a tape measure or knows how to use a level Service: Home renovations

Kemar and his team replaced a shower for me in my en-suite bathroom. Their work was great and were very communicative about what work was being done. I was also able to trust their professional opinions when making choices on tiles and details of the remodel. Services: Tile work installation, Paint indoors, Remodeling, Drywall repair
