All Hands Renos

I hired Walid Al Daadaa because he came highly recommended by someone in the community for whom I have great respect. Aside from the financial loss, this man cheated me and took advantage of my generosity. He lied to me repeatedly. He deflected questions about the work. He did not finish work on time, and his work was shoddy. When I asked him for an explanation about the quality of work or his inability to complete it on time, he had no answer except, "We are professionals. This is your opinion," even when evidence is staring at his face. Even though I was not required, I gave him a lump sum before the work started as he told me he needed the money to buy the material. I had to chase him for receipts continually. He could not bring me a hard copy receipt as he claimed that he did not have a printer.

A couple of days before he was going to start the job, he texted me that he was going away for a week. I was shocked as everything in my home was packed. We set another date; once again, he emailed me that he was not going to return for another week. There was no consideration that I could not use my kitchen during that period. Despite the inconvenience and the delay, I allowed him to do the work.

After he took the second installment, he agreed to clean up before halting work due to COVID-19; instead, he left my house in a complete mess. I had to get someone else to make sure that the bare light switches do not give me an electric shock. Further, the newly installed sink broke, and he told me he did not know how to fix it but will contact the suppliers taking no ownership of the work. Along with all other issues, I did not have a working sink. He never did get them. Instead, when the work resumed, he decided to fix it himself even though he had earlier claimed that it was the supplier's responsibility.

Further, it seems that the young men he hired have never painted before. There was paint everywhere – on the bed, furniture, light fixtures, ceiling, etc. They would leave the place filthy, and it took me hours to clean up. He ruined a light switch. When I had a plumber, electrician, and a professional painter come to my house to fix these issues, they were shocked at the terrible work they saw. In my experience Walid Al Daadaa takes shortcuts. He blames everyone –the company, the manufactures of material, COVID-19, etc. It's ALWAYS SOMEONE ELSE's FAULT. Moreover, I had to push him to complete tasks continually and correct his mistakes.

Before writing the review, I wanted to have an inspection done on my flooring that is already cracking, so it was not my word against his. Here is an abstract from the inspector's report: "Installation failed the inspection. The claim was declined as the following observations were made. Unfortunately, kitchen cabinets and the kitchen island were installed on top of the floating floor. Manufacturers strictly void the warranties when cabinets are installed on top of the floating floor. There was no expansion gap left around most of the perimeter walls, especially under the door jams. Staggering wasn't done correctly in several spots. It was visible that most of the planks were damaged due to improper installation. Clicks were damaged. Some planks were even left loose without being attached/clicked to surrounding planks.

In summary, in my experience, I found that Walid Al Daadaa lacks WORK ETHIC. HE MISREPRESENTED HIMSELF AS AN EXPERT in flooring and kitchen renovations.

I have many photos but just a few attached of the quality of his and his teams work.

Expert advice, reliable, punctual. A job well done with reasonable labour cost. I will hire them again.

Honest people. Did the job quickly and efficiently and the price was just right. I highly recommend. Thank you for a great job.

I like perfection, and All hand Reno’s the tile guys, was right up my alley. They were perfect in all ways, and knew ahead of time what they would encounter, and what needed to be discussed to have the best outcome. A wonderful craftsman team and professionals.

I will highly recommend you at any time that renovation comes up. It has been such a good experience and outcome for me.
