We had an unfinished basement we wanted some work done in. We wanted framing, in wall electrical, plumbing, insulation and finally wallboard. We wanted to do the finish work ourselves, so we did not ask for painting, tiling, flooring, cabinetry, trim and final install of sinks and faucets. There were rough-ins for a bathroom, but it needed to be adjusted and the walls had to be built. We needed 4 windows put in and duct work framed up as well as all the other walls and lights and outlets.
Jason at Mariposa homes was very accommodating with the fact that we only wanted some work done and not a completely finished basement. He created his estimate with estimates from the other trades needed and showed all the figures he was using. This was very helpful in keeping track of the budget. All the trades he used seemed knowledgeable and respectful. The construction work done by Mariposa workers was equally skilled. Everyone worked when they said they would and completed on time. The site was kept clean and secure. There were a few budget overages, but some were due to new asks and some due to unforeseen difficulties. Jason kept in touch at all times and did everything he said he would. The budget included replacing the main water line to the house which was done by the plumbing subcontractor.
Overall, the project went very smoothly and I would recommend Mariposa homes to anyone. We got another quote before starting, and it was almost double that of Mariposa's. I'm very glad we didn't have to use them.
