Wonderful customer service and follow up from BuildZoom.
They provided 3 contractor leads for my remodeling project as they stated they would do. I found a contractor to the work from the list of what I wanted to to be done. Mauro has been reliable, does great work, and he also provided honest feedback on what needs to be done in repairs and suggested what is NOT necessary to do to for the remodel of my home in order to complete the repairs to put my home up for sale.
Mauro saved me $1000 from the work he suggested did not need to be undertaken.

We signed up for the premium service
We signed up for the premium service. It was a waste of time and money. Contractors also inflate their price when working through Buildzoom.
Buildzoom introduced us to 3 contractors. Each contractor quoted us around $700-900k to build our home. Buildzoom was supposed to receive a breakdown by line and compare for the construction of our home from each contractor. The bids we received from buildzoom were then inflated to $1.2 to $1.7 million from the same contractors. We never received any line amounts or a justification for this inflated price. Buildzoom charged us $7000 for their services despite giving us no new information and higher costing bids.

Hi Rob,
We can assure you that BuildZoom or the contractors we work with don’t inflate prices. Our Premium team collects and reviews bids that contractors submit thoroughly to ensure they are accurate and well represented.
It’s not uncommon when a contractor does an initial walkthrough of the property, they’ll give an off-hand verbal estimate, however when it comes down to developing the bid and they price out the cost of materials, labor, and subcontractors it ends up being higher than they initially thought.
To clarify our process — the first bids we receive from contractors are usually very high-level and not broken down by line items. We narrow down our choices with the property owner, then go through rounds of revisions with the chosen contractors and that’s when we start to receive bids broken down by lines. In your case specifically, you found and introduced an outside contractor before we had the opportunity to go through iterations.
Although you hired an outside contractor, as part of the Premium service we offered to review their contract before signing to ensure it was well represented, which you agreed to and at no additional cost we conducted a contract review, which is something we don’t typically do if a contractor is found outside of our service.
We’re sorry to hear that you were dissatisfied with the Premium service and wish you the best with your hire.

Old Time Contractors Sykesville MD.
My wife and I went through Home Depot to have one of their recommended contractors remodel our small bathroom. We were put in touch with Old Time Contractors in Sykesville Maryland Carroll County. They did a fantastic job! The bathroom is perfect! I'm a real detail oriented person and found nothing wrong with any of their workmanship. Brian is great to work with and he carefully listens to your ideas and adds his own to build upon yours. Andrew did all the work by himself. He was here everyday for 3 weeks straight and did the demo of the old bathroom then remodeled it to it's great condition.

Beautiful Front Yard Redo
The experience with Vista Landscape was 100% positive. They estimated the job and we agreed.
They lived up to everything the quoted on and our yard. There was a lot of hard work, moving flagstone, rocks and leveling everything. They hauled away excess dirt and rocks. The workers were strong, worked hard and were cheerful.
There was always a supervisory person on site.
They cleared an old cement walkway, poured cement to widen our driveway. Then, cleared the entire front yard except for 4 large bushes. They took up all flagstone and relayed it in a beautiful pattern. Then planted some new plants, flowers and some succulents. Also, they installed an irrigation system.
So no more lugging the hose around. Our life is simpler, and far more beautiful out front than ever!
We Highly Recommend Vista Landscape and are very grateful to have found them.
