Mohekonokono was hired to demolish a wall, reroute electrical wiring, and patch/refinish damaged areas. During the initial consultation, he suggested installing countertops and an under mount sink. We agreed to his quote of $3500 for labor and plywood due to his agreeable demeanor. Throughout the project, Mario (owner) and his sibling appeared to complete wall and electrical work proficiently. However, multiple blunders transpired during countertop installation. The quartz was stacked rather than cut at 45-degree angles at corners. They left pencil marks and smudges on the countertop, as well as chipped portions near the sink. Moreover, quartz was not properly sealed after sanding corners. When it came to painting and refinishing the wall, they failed to wait the necessary time between painting and texturing. This resulted in a combination of both smooth and textured areas on the wall, giving it a worse appearance than before. We would not recommend using this company, unless for an exceedingly simple project. We advise against allowing them to install countertops or paying upfront. We waited over a month to give this review, presuming the workload to be heavy. However, we did not receive any follow-up communication from them about the aforementioned issues.

Mario is a skilled builder known for his reliability, integrity, and top-notch craftsmanship. I wouldn't hesitate to enlist his services for any project, as he has completed countless jobs for me over the years. In fact, there's no builder I trust more than Mario Samita! If he's on your team, you can rest assured that your project is in excellent hands. As evidence, he built my own home, and my family couldn't be happier with the result.
