We have been here since the end of 2013. We bought a new 1800 square-foot, two car garage courtyard villa plus the lanai.
We totally redid the landscape, tore all the carpeting out of entire home, tore our linoleum and put a new flooring in entire NEW villa , took out a bathtub and added a walk-in shower, added ceiling to floor storage cabinets in garage and epoxied floor in the garage, added cabinets above the washer and dryer in the inside of our villa, added Custom closets, designed and had installed a sleek, white, floor to ceiling desk, added Custom Windows from floor to ceiling in the lanai, and automatic blinds from floor to ceiling in the lanai, add an air conditioner in the lanai, had crown molding installed in the entire Villa, added lighting in all the closets, install lighting in the master bedroom ceiling, installed lighting in the ceiling in the living room, installed a new, decorative front door, installed a large, custom garage door screen that matches the color of the Villa, and had custom closet built in garage and have a furnace and water heater area enclosed in the garage.
These projects did not go without some struggle, but we were able to accomplish all of that. We knew no one here, when we moved here.
Some of our friends that moved down, have used all of our contractors, workers, and did not have to struggle getting their homes customized the way they wanted. They were able to exhale and not worry about whether or not they chose the right person to do the job.
Seniors Against Crime did help us in one situation. They called the contractor and spoke to them personally , on our behalf. I would suggest, before you hire someone you are considering, call Seniors Against Crime to check to see if there any complaints against them. They are a terrific reference. They were very hard to help the community. I called them for everything. Even if I am Considering buying a piece of furniture and having it delivered, I call and ask if anyone has had any bad experiences. That way, at least I’m aware, and I can make my judgment accordingly.
