VanRossun Contracting & Consulting

We love, love, love our new garage! The deck is gorgeous and beautifully done. Highly recommend.

I used Van Rossun Contracting back in Feb. of 2013. They replaced all my siding and facia with Hardee board and repainted the entire exterior of the house. This is a pretty big two story and they finished it up in a full seven days.
I must admit there were a few communication issues, but my dad was an electrical contractor and I worked for a general contractor for over two years, so I was accustomed to the pros and cons of communicating with contractors.
The work was top notch, and I’m writing this now (for one I didn’t use Unilocal back then) to let prospective clients know that after two years Clint came out and took care of a board that popped out towards the apex of my roof at NO CHARGE. It was unclear to either of us if it was even Van Rossun’s fault or just a board that had worked loose over time. I would use them again.

Steer as clear of this company as you can! I used them at the recommendation of some friends. When I had such a horrible experience I went back to them. Apparently it was the owners son, Nick, who is the only one who knows how to give good customer service. And even he has quit the company. The owner, Clint, is extremely unorganized and makes promises he has no intention of keeping. Doubt he even remembers making them. He surely never conveyed those promises to the multiple project managers that came and promptly left. Apparently his reputation proceeds him in the subcontractor field if the quality of the subs he has is anything to go by. The granite folks they worked with left huge seams in the granite and used epoxy to glue together the pieces they cracked. In the kitchen there was an approx 1/​16″ differnce in height between the two pieces they were fitting together. When I questioned it, I was told «lady it is a seam, what do you expect?» The cabinet maker walked off the job and handed them the rest of the wood and said finish it yourself. The windows in the doors were hung upside down and one door broke before they were ever finished with the job (which was several weeks late) and was replaced with a totally different style door. When asked, the project manager said that was all he could find so I would have to live with it. Each day came with a new surprise of something they needed answers on immediately that I was not made aware of. Such as paint colors, wood stains, etc. The day they were to install the kitchen sinks I was aksed where they were. When I told the latest PM that they were to provide bisquit colored composite sinks as that is what we had discussed in the contract I was told they had budgeted $ 250 dollars for the sink so I needed to go find my own composite sink and pay any differences in price. When I asked for a sample of the stain on the wood to make sure it would match the granite we chose (which we again were told to go find on our own but that we would be charged any overage in cost from what they budgeted although we were never given a budget sheet) I was told nobody does that but they would «try» to get a sample. Walked in to find the cabinets already stained and when I asked why I wasn’t given a sample of the stain on the wood they pointed to a piece of wood on the ground and said there it is. Clint even tried to get my father to do some of the work as «they were so short on labor». If you are so desperate that you just need someone, my advice would be to write out VERY SPECIFICALLY each thing you want done and to what specifications and then make Clint sign it. And resign yourself to shoddy work and having to micromanage the job.

If there is a lower than 1 star rating, they would earn that. Very unprofessional. Came over to do the estimate, never took measurements and said they will give an estimate. That was the last I heard from them. At least I would expect an email or call. Find other places to do your remodeling.

My wife and I have dealt with contractors before and VanRossun if by far the best we’ve worked with. We did an extensive remodel of our back deck which was on the second floor. This included removing a built in spa (yes, on the 2^nd floor!), removing 30 year old tile, redoing the roof, building an outdoor kitchen, putting in a customer railing and more.
They did a great job on all fronts. Isabel more than excellent in communicating. Workers showed up on time. If we were not happy with something they fixed it to our satisfaction. They’d even work on weekends to make up for lost time.
In fact, I just had a pipe break due to the cold weather. I called them and within an hour they were out here assessing the damage, giving me a quote, and scheduling the work.

When my husband and I were in need of someone who could: 1) get rid of the mold in the wall between our baby’s room and the guest bathroom, and 2) remodel/​upgrade our 1960s bathrooms, VanRossun Contracting came through for us brilliantly.
As it was our first remodeling job, we had heard countless nightmares of what to expect (or not expect) and were concerned we’d have similar issues. That did not end up being the case. From the start, they not only gave us a very competitive estimate, but recommended a simpler remodeling job. This move saved us thousands of dollars and we are very happy with the results.

We hired VanRossun contracting to build us a new home office, and to convert our old office into a standard bedroom with closet. We also had them install a series of canned lights for the hallway.
The new office involved raising walls and glass French doors, new AC duct, electrical wiring, dimmer and ceiling fan. The new bedroom entailed converting wide double doors to a single standard door, building a closet in the room and all the electrical wiring that goes with it. They also painted all the relevant walls.
We are extremely pleased with the results. We keep receiving compliments from all our visitors that the renovation is so natural, as if the house was built this way originally. Nik and the team were very professional and worked quite efficiently. They were patient and generous with our requests and last minute changes, and they completed everything in just over 4 days. We have past experience with other contractors, and Nik stands out for his trustworthiness and honesty. We would not hesitate to hire them in the future. Highly recommended!

We recently used Vanrossun for a kitchen remodel. The work included reshaping the island, granite countertops, and new tile on the backsplash as well as the island wall. In summary, we were very happy with the results, but it took a little work to get there.
Multiple sub-​contractors were needed for this job and they were all outstanding! They were all very professional, detailed, and clean. It only took them 5 days to complete the job, which was pretty impressive.
The only downside of the entire process was some lack of communication and miscommunciation before the work was started. However, once Adrienne got involved as project manager, everything went VERY smoothly! She did an awesome job of keeping us informed, working with us through any decisions needed, and coordinating the crew schedules every day.
The attention to detail was very good upon completion of the job. Nick came out and looked over all the work and had a final crew come out and finish up some minor details to really «polish off» the final product. I didn’t even have to point out the small issues I noticed.

After we interviewed six other contractors, my Wife and I decided to go with VanRossun Contracting. Our remodel was over 70 thousand dollars so we wanted to go with a company that could handle that big of a remodel, especially since we never plan on moving out of our house. When I wrote that first check for half I have to admit I was nervous. Well right off the bat Nic was on the job the next day helping us pick out the wood flooring, granite, paint, etc. Within the week he already had my outdoor kitchen concrete poured.
Being a Manager for a large company having to deal with contractors all the time, I was very impressed with Nic VanRossun. He was always on time, answered my phone calls promptly, and most importantly kept his word on what he would do. Even after he was paid in full he came out and redid my pool coping that got rained on after he stained it. Now that was cool. He didn’t even charge me, which cost him another $ 500 bucks.
Just to keep this all in perspective, we are certainly not wealthy and spending this kind of money gave us a lot of heartburn, but the job turned out simply amazing. The rock work was incredible, the wood flooring blew us away, and the granite made our house look brand new. He designed my outdoor kitchen and even put in a gas fire pit which has been a huge homerun. His guys worked long hours to get us quickly back into the house and their work was outstanding. I’ve had quite a lot of friends come by and they are blown away by the results. In fact, one said it looks like a brand new house, and another is hiring Nic to do his roof.
If you are looking to do any kind of remodel work, I highly reccomend using VanRossun Contracting. I’m sure he’ll use me as a reference so feel free to call me if you have any questions. I know from experience picking out a contractor is scary so hopefully my review will help someone make this decision a little easier. If nothing else, sit with them and you’ll see why we ended up using them.

Looking for a contractor to execute your job in a professional manner? One who uses drop clothes, protecting sheeting and the like? One whose employees use all of their own tools (not yours) and does quality work? One who doesn’t dismiss poor workmanship or leave with your belongings?
Then VanRossun Contracting And Consulting is NOT for you.
It is baffling to me that I had to spend twenty minutes talking to Samantha about her workers (which are just people the pick up from one of the day worker stations) using my household items to complete the job. I don’t think it even entered her defensive mind that her workers should NOT be touching anything that belongs to me i.e. brooms, mops, kitchen towels, bath towels, tools, buckets. The principle that the customers belongings should never be touched nor used was lost on her. As for Clint, I had to have the exact conversation with him. It is unbelievable to me that I have to explain to them why it is unprofessional to touch and use a customers belongings.
When it came time to go over their workmanship it was awful. When my husband showed Samantha the paint job on the new door they installed, her response was «That’s because we don’t use the kind of filler that is used for a metal door». Really??? Well shouldn’t you get some that works with the door you sold me? Instead of having a door that looks new, I have a door that that looks like it has been painted 20 times with lumpy paint.
In the end, I refused to pay them the rest of the money that was owed to them for the job until they redid some of their atrocious work. Even then I was left crummy workmanship and a lot of stress.
Stay away from these people.

We love the new patio doors; had company last night and everyone loves the doors and open glass!
