Hoadley Construction

Mark has excellent craftsmen working for him. We had a small bathroom remodel and it turned out great! The men were on-​time, pros at their craft, clean and pleasant to work with. I had less interaction with Mark, but when I did he was a pro. I would definitely recommend Hoadley Construction for the job!

We hired Hoadley Construction to remodel our two bathrooms; master and guest. They just finished and we LOVE LOVE LOVE the work they did!!! Yes, we found them on Unilocal.Despite of other reviews, we decided to hire them because we appreciated the honesty and the timeframe they promised us. We are expecting our first child and it was important for us to prepare these bathrooms before due date. We wanted the (1^st project) master bathroom done before the baby shower. Not only did they finish with QUALITY craftsmanship, they finished on time. Our guests were in awe of the newly constructed bathroom! They kept saying how luxury and beautiful it was. The second project, guest bathroom was just completed and we LOVE the way it was done. We look forward to our guests using it. Before, it was gross with an early 80s look.
We appreciate Mark Hoadley very much. He was straightforward on pricing even on things that popped up, no major hidden costs after initial estimate, no stupid gimmicks on optional pricing on features that was discussed in the overall estimate (we had one contractor nickeling and diming every feature we wanted. Whatever. No name there but they are on Unilocal with surprisingly decent rating). Unforeseen things will pop up during construction and I believe Mark treated it fair and with transparency. The guys treated our home and me (8 months + pregnant) with respect. We trusted them them along the way and had daily communication on the progress, needs and expectations of both bathrooms. We hear of horror stories of remodeling but our experience was pleasant and smooth. Thanks to Hoadley Construction on the honesty, quality craftsmanship, promise timeline, communication, and professionalism. We highly recommend and endorse Hoadley Construction. Please see pics of our before and after. I forgot to take pics of the guest bathroom before demolition! But after looks great!

Mark Hoadley was the general contractor for an extensive home remodel which included a closet and bathroom addition, full kitchen and bath remodel, and air conditioning among numerous other. Overall, I’d recommend him again, since he was the best that I could find, with very affordable pricing. Even so, there are some caveats to mention.
First, I’d make sure you need general contractor for your project. The majority of the work (framing, electrical, plumbing, tilework, painting) was delegated to a 3 person team. In many cases, this is all you need, and you can work with such a team directly for your project. For a project of our size, we needed someone like Mark, and he fulfilled his role well.
Pros:
— Knowledgeable and competent.
— Affordable. Gave us the best overall price on the work, and provided for several items at cost during the project. Overall, costs were very reasonable, though there was one instance where I saved considerable money by hiring a separate contractor for a small portion of the work.
— A good communicator. Responds well to email and text messages. Language is clear and precise. Even so, I recommend giving important instructions by email, since they are easier to retrieve and reference.
— Flexible. Accommodated multiple change orders and detailed requests throughout the project. Was cooperative in finding mutually beneficial solutions to nuanced design and construction challenges.
— Transparent. Mark allowed me to work directly with his subcontractors to give instructions on specific details. This freedom allowed the project to run much smoother.
— Honors his word. If a mistake is made by him or one of his workers, he takes care of it.
— Access to a wide variety of professional contractors and suppliers.
Cons:
— Oversight needed. Its generally a good idea to inspect the progress of your project on a daily basis, regardless of contractor. I found this necessary, as I regularly uncovered errors or mistakes that needed to be corrected. Sometimes clear instructions (given months prior) were not followed, including items that made it into the permitted plans. Even so, Mark was there often to inspect the work, and I’m sure he took care of plenty of other issues without my involvement. When rework was necessary, it was handled professionally.
— Occasional quality concerns. Overall the work was high quality (framing, electrical and roofing come to mind), but some of his subcontractors disappointed. Its hard to argue with the prices, but sometimes, you get what you pay for.
— Schedule. We initiated several change orders from the baseline proposal. Even with this in mind, the project finished about 1 month later than I would expect. The project got off to a slow start (he was reluctant to start significant work without approved permits, even though there was plenty of non-​permitted work to be done). He also made arrangements with one 3-​man crew for the majority of the work, so we were at the mercy of their working pace. Construction projects and remodels notoriously run late, so unfortunately for us, this was not an exception.

I hired Hoadley Construction to redo my roof. The work was completed but the customer service from the owner was very unprofessional. After writing a negative review, the owner sued me for libel (and lost). I do not recommend this company to anyone.

I recently found Hoadley Construction through
when I needed to have a new window installed in my home office. I found Mark Hoadley to be very responsive and professional. My wife and I are very pleased with the quality of the new window and the job that Mark did for us. I would definitely recommend Hoadley Construction to others and plan to contact Mark for future projects.

Terrible contractor. Had the guy put in a new roof for me, he instead subcontracted out the work to a deadbeat roofer who cuts corners everywhere he can. My «new» roof leaked everytime it rains. Had to take Hoadley construction to court in the end.
Hoadley left threatening messages on my answering machine when I threaten law suit. And when he couldn’t get his roofer to come over to fix a leaky roof, he said «I couldn’t locate Kurt. He is high on cocaine somewhere.»
If you decide to use Hoadley, make sure you document everything and every conversation with him. Just in case you have a problem in the future. There is a reason why his prices are low. The quality of people he hires to do the work is questionable. Use Hoadley at your own risk.
