We had our house coated over the last 9 days. Our house is about 100 years old but no one can tell now. It looks amazing! They completely refurbished the wood. My wife and I are absolutely satisfied. We have had our house painted 3 times since we have owned it and it has never turned out this good.
C.O.R. repaired the stucco and applied Cool Wall Supper Cote. We are very pleased with the results. They were very communicative every day letting us know who was coming, what they would be doing and making sure we were informed. They started on time and finished by the time we were told they would.
They did painting with “cool paint” and stucco repair, heater ducts and furnace replacement and now new gutters. The workers were very professional and friendly and they did a great job. They also installed a new in and out door to the garage.
My husband and I hired Cut Once Remodeling to coat the exterior of our home with Coolwall. We own a duplex. The crew did an excellent job communicating, they walked us through all the steps, gave us plenty of colors to choose from and did a great job prepping the house. They did clean work. We are very very happy with the final results. They definitely arent the cheapest but we highly recommend them.
Really appreciated the work they did. Enjoyed interacting with Joey and Eric. Did 3 separate jobs with them.
We needed to get a new roof, with some minor wood repair underneath, a very straightforward job. A representative from Cut Once Remodel happened to be walking around our neighborhood to drum up business and so we made an appointment for someone to come out and give us an estimate for our roof. Two gentlemen showed up, they were very nice, friendly, and respectful of our home and showed us the materials theyd be using on our roof.However, when we sat down to discuss price it began to feel a bit predatory and pushy. They quoted approx. $50,000 (our home is 1 story, 1250 sq. Ft.) which made our eyes pop. Then they said if we scheduled with them right now it would be $46,000. We kept telling them wed like to get more bids and if this is their estimate can they please provide it a formal estimate. All the gentleman did was write it out a lined piece of paper and continued to try and pressure us to schedule with them immediately for the discounted price of $46k.Overall, the C.O.R. staff is nice enough, but weve since gotten more estimates with similar roofing materials and warranty and those estimates are almost half as much as this company quoted. Be careful and dont be pressured by their sales techniques. I cant comment on their quality of work but I can confirm that theyre pricey.
Every single person I connected with was polite adn friendly. They showed upon time, worked quickly and effeciently, and finished on time! AND my house looks great. Answered all questions and even asked me a few to make sure I was really satisfied. Julio, my project manager is the best! Well, except for Larry, who is also the best!Can you tell I like them? AND the work!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Our old house had a number of issues. Some stucco deterioration and damage, wood damage, peeing paint, and the roof was due to be replaced. They did a good job on the roof, so we let them fix up all the other issues too. The old house looks soooooo much better. The crew was great. They knew what they were doing and made sure to keep us updated on the progress. It wasnt cheap, but it was needed and it feels great to have it completed.
Cut Once Remodel tried to financially exploit my 85 yr old mom, with unethical sales practices. Without an appointment or invitation, 2 COR sales men showed up at my moms doorstep, they got her to sign a contract to paint her home and fix the stucco for $30,000. My mom called me after the fact to see what I thought. I felt it was a shockingly over inflated price, so I advised she cancel (contract says customer has 5 days to cancel) The next day, my mom called COR to cancel. She was told, the boss is at a meeting and will call you back in 2 hours. No one called my mom back, rather they SHOWED UP AT HER DOORSTEP AGAIN to convince her not to cancel the sale if they reduced the price. . Fortunately, I live nearby and was able to get there in time to intercede and be firm with cancel. inappropriate, high sales pressure of a lone, feeble 85 yr old.Subsequently, I have gotten 2 other quotes from other house painting companies for the EXACT same job, stucco repair and paint. 1 quote was $6000 the other $5,500. COR wanted $30,000 from my 85 yr old mom. When I spoke to CORs manager, he tried to justify the $30,000 by saying they use a cool wall system similar to Disneyland and it costs more than other painters. I feel my duty to warn others. I have all 3 written quotes in my possession. The city police agreed this was “disgusting” sales practice, but a crime was hard to prove. UNETHICAL, avoid at all cos.Response to COR reply (an edit) NO FEMALE COR staff ever made an appointment with my mom. Even the online response is DISHONEST!! wow
Cut Once Remodeling has performed three different services for me - Stucco repair, painting and sealing; roof replacement; and HVAC replacement. Replacing the roof involved removing and reinstalling solar panels.The work has been done extremely well and on time, considering the delays happening because of the COVID-19 pandemic. The personnel doing the work were friendly, prompt, and cleaned up the area quickly and well. All personnel I encountered from C.O.R. were competent and easy to work with. I would and have recommended them to neighbors and anyone needing house repair services.
The entire team was very professional and knowledgeable. Raul and Rafa were always on time, neat and clean up every afternoon. Supervisors came almost daily to ask if we had any questions or concerns and kept us informed on what was going to happen from day to day. I love the way our home looks. It feels so nice to drive up to a beautiful home.
My husband and I have had several jobs done at our home by various contractors. Seems we end up being the general every time which is why we were lagging on getting our roof and stucco done. When I was walking the dog I saw COR working on a neighbors home. They spent 9 days redoing the stucco and painting the trim and it looked amazing when they were completed. I asked the owner how things went and she had nothing but great things to say. Needless to say we hired them.They had team members checking up on all the workmen daily. Communication was on point! I was constantly updated of everything. Only hiccup was the city on a permit sign-off where the city inspector didnt show up the day they were suppose to which seems typical.This was the first contractor we hired where we felt we could be totally hands off and let them do their thing. We are 100% satisfied. They wont be the cheapest out there but I would recommend them to anyone who asked.
We need to have our roof replaced. Larry came out from COR and made a very professional presentation, spent lots of time explaining exactly what COR would do. My wife and I were ready to sign and then the HUGE surprise a quote that was 42% higher than the highest bid we had already received. Same roof tiles. I have no understanding how they can be that much more than the other 3 professionals we have had make bids
Excellent service great quality work
Got re-roofing- tore out old roof and installed new roof.Excellent work, very pleased.
Id been meaning to get gutters and replacement windows to help address moisture issues with my 65 year old house and learned about this company through flyers and a field agent setting up appointments in the neighborhood. The stucco was already suffering though and a crack from a cold joint before my time needed to be addressed so I went forward with stucco/wood repair and texcote coolwall finish in addition to gutters and retrofit windows. This was a major expense, the scope being way more than I initially budgeted, and the decision (especially picking colors) stressed me out immensely, but they were easy to reach whenever I had questions/concerns, started quickly, did good work, and made regular check-ins and follow-ups. In the end the house has a new lease on life.I would advise everyone to know what you want and shop around before starting. If you like what this team has to offer, they wont let you down.
COR gives great value and was constantly in communication with me throughout my Coolwall installation. The crew was clean and on time every day. I am scheduled for some window replacements and I will work with them in the future
Great quality work and very professional work crew.
Why COR deserves a 5 star rating is due to the people who work for the company that go above and beyond your expectations to deliver quality work and expert craftsmanship. It is true that you pay for what you get in life and the value add that COR employees provide with their dedication to detail, hard work and professionalism is extraordinary and well worth the expense. At every level of the company from the general manager, sales team, production management, lead supervisors and craftsman that do the hands on labor are an incredible team. We had our home painted in April 2020 with CoolWall process along with complicated roof repair. At every step we were excited to see the progress and high quality standard in place by everyone involved. Anytime we had a question or concern the team member involved was patient, responsive and determined to achieve our satisfaction. We were very impressed and happy to recommend COR to anyone looking to have exterior paint and roof repair.
COR has previously done two projects for me, both at the end of 2019: (1) Stucco repair and Cool Wall painting of the exterior of my home, cost: $48,57; (2) Re-roofing of the same home for $51,469While conducting an annual inspection of the roof on March 4, 2021, a COR technician noted “lifting” or “softening” of the shingles around the air vent from the HVAC unit in the attic, which, according to him, might imply the vent has been overheating. When the technician inspected the unit, which is at least 16 years old, he was alarmed by a number of issues. Although the unit still performs well, the technician described it as “toast,” and worried that further overheating of the vent could potentially damage the roof and invalidate the warranty.The technician recommended that COR replace the entire HVAC system for a staggering $32,000+. He made a call to one of his managers, who told him that another customer needed the same HVAC system and so if mine and theirs could both be ordered at the same time, it would save on shipping costs, dropping the price to $29,919.I questioned whether my unit was really that badly off and whether the price was justified. The answer to both was, yes. Without advance notice, a more senior COR associate appeared at my door that evening to take a look at the HVAC unit. His feeling was that the duct work could be omitted, dropping the price by another $6000 to $23,919. I was curious how much of that total the HVAC itself accounted for. The reply was that the quote was a “formula,” and therefore the associate, even with his 20+ years’ experience, couldn’t state for sure the cost of the HVAC alone. Seeing my persistent hesitation, he called his supervisor, who punted it up to the general manager. The GM said that if I would give a “testimonial” he would reduce the price further to $21,000.I then sought two independent HVAC analyses. The first one was an HVAC contractor that my home warranty sent out at my request. After his examination, he said the heater unit was fine and he didn’t understand why the system needed to be replaced. We turned on the heater as well, and the blowers were working perfectly.The second HVAC contractor looked over the unit very carefully. He told me in not so many words that he was baffled. “I don’t see any reason whatsoever to change the entire HVAC.” In fact, he said the unit was in very good shape. The most he recommended was cleaning up the condenser a bit before summer came along. With these two independent opinions, I canceled my contract with COR the following day.I strongly advise other people who become customers of COR to deeply question the company’s pricing and get another quote or two. Beware of COR’s pressure tactics that make you feel like you must hire them quickly to save money, a kind of “order now, supplies limited” maneuver. This may be COR’s MO to coerce customers to sign on the dotted line.In both the roofing job and the HVAC proposal, I was given the story that it just so happened COR was ordering exactly the same item for another customer, and if I could combine my order with the other one, I could save money on shipping costs. In both cases, I was told that I needed to give COR the go-ahead THAT DAY, because the next day was when the order for the other customer was going out, so we needed to catch it in time, so to speak. That this should have happened twice in a row seemed a little too coincidental and I became suspicious. When suspicion replaces trust, its very difficult to get the trust back.So, 3 stars for the work, which was up to standard, but 2 stars removed for overpricing, failure/refusal to itemize the work, and predatory selling tactics, if not downright dishonest. If there were half stars, my score would have been 2.5.
Job well done in a timely fashion and professional manner
The workers did a fabulous job repairing and repainting the stucco and wood trim on my house. They paid close attention to everything, making sure to cover all windows, doors, concrete and my pool in order to protect from dust and paint. I am amazed at how thorough they were! In addition, many of the C.O.R. sales and quality control personnel stopped by on a regular basis to make sure that all was going well and that I was happy with the work. I highly recommend this company! They did a great job! My home looks better than when it was first built almost 70 years ago!
The crew from COR worked diligently to complete our installation of Cool Wall. They were very professional, and any time we had a concern it was quickly addressed and taken care of that day, which is greatly appreciated! Very happy with the outcome of the project!
After being recommended by my sister, I just had my roof done by COR. This was by far the easiest home improvement project I’ve ever had done on my home. Larry was my representative. He was very knowledgeable about roofing. When we first met, he did a full detailed inspection of my roof and showed me pictures of everything he found.Larry then explained in detail what materials he was going to use and why he recommended them.Once the project started, it went exactly as Larry had told me it would. A roof is a messy job, I had wood shingles and they went everywhere. The crew did an amazing job cleaning it all up. Four days later, the roof was completed. I’m 100% confident my roof will outlast me on this home. Great materials and great installation!
This company is HIGHLY recommended. From the initial contact to the final walk-through and sign-off, each step was described to me in detail, and the crews who worked on my house projects were professional and an absolute pleasure to work with.
Received a cold-call during COVID in June 2020. I spoke to the guy that showed up at my house, he was very pleasant. ( I even called the corporate office to make sure the guy walking door to door was a valid employee. ) I scheduled for the sales team to come back a few days later to meet with me and my husband. We spent 2 hours talking to them, going through their presentation and product line. We have a 998 sq ft house and detached garage, needing about 1500 sq ft of roofing material, underlayment, teardown of two roofs (original and current roof laid over 20 yrs ago) etc. The quote we received was $55k! They said if we put $1k down that day we could get a discount. After several nos to different financing options. We had to pretty much ask them to leave because my husband was late for an appointment. I received a call back from customer service later that week to tell me they could add my order to a corporate order and I could get my roof for roughly $43k! Unbelievable pricing! My family member just received a brand new roof from a reputable company for twice the size of my house for under $15k.I just received another cold call today 11-17-20 from C.O.R where the guy was combative after I told him they already quoted me and it was unbelievably expensive. His response to me was....it wasnt me! as he grumbled under his breath as he walked away. Not very professional if you ask me.
The installation team was very professional and fast. They did a good job and very pleased with the quality of the work.
Work performed on installing gutters with leaf guards. Installers did a great job.
Some young men came to my door offering a free estimate on windows. I knew I couldn’t afford it just yet but I agreed to let them give me a price. The representatives that came to my home were on time, friendly and knowledgeable. They showed me all the options they offer and left me with a price. I will be calling them in the next month or so to install some brand new windows. Thank you guys for being patient with me and not pressuring me into something I couldn’t afford.
My son refereed them to me after having windows done at his place. They did a wonderful job painting and replacing my windows. Great communication. Highly recommended!
Cut Once Remodeling (COR) is by far the worst company I’ve ever dealt with. They lay claims to fantastic reviews and ratings with various agencies and are quick to sell you on the work. They make promises of quick turn-around times which were not met. I had my house painted with CoolWall product and had new furnace and air conditioning units installed. In comparison, they charge outrageous prices for the work they delivered. They sub-contracted to painters who clearly did not know what they were doing which resulted in having to have my entire house repainted, stucco & trim. This was not done by their project management, but my own. So as a general contractor, they clearly were not overseeing their workers. I had to play project manager of this project yet was charged for their services in which they did not deliver. I had to point out that the stucco could be rubbed leaving white spots where ever the coating was thick. And the eaves were not sanded and trimmed as they should have been. So this resulted in a promised 7-9 day job turning into a month and half to complete as they had to get other sub-contractor painters out to do the entire house over again. I spoke to so many people at COR as they kept passing me off from one person to another.In the midst of the paint job, I was told I had damage from old furnace on roof, so replacing the furnace was essential. I agreed to do this and added the air conditioning unit also. Their sub-contractors for that job were sub-par as well. They kept using my restroom facilities instead of providing their own. They installed a thermostat off-center in the middle of a wall instead of doing it right the first time. This resulted in holes in my interior wall that had to be fixed. Then they had to match the paint to fix the paint in that area. Yet another sub-contracted painter for that job. The wall had to be painted 3 times in order for the holes and mismatched paint area to not be visible. Again, COR, who made promises of having a supervisor on the jobs every step of the way, did not live up to their promises. While doing this job my son just caught the workers starting to drag something over his pool table in the garage luckily catching it in time before damage was done. As it was, they did get a grease spot on the pool table which we were able to correct, but all of that could have been avoided if their workers were more careful.All the “Sorry’s” I received from Josh Oswell really became old fast. And the two salesman, Mark Reeves and Joey Licata Jr., became scarce when the problems began. Never heard or saw them again. There was another person, David, who would call occasionally or show up, but never really served any purpose for good outcomes. I received 4 warranties for the CoolWall & questioned why so many with different dates & invoice numbers, but never received a decent response or reason. I’m still waiting for the warranties for the furnace & air conditioning unit that I had to prompt for as they were not forthcoming with those as a part of the process. It seems this job and the follow-through is never ending.I would STRONGLY recommend NEVER DOING BUSINESS WITH COR. They make big promises, charge very high prices, and do not manage their projects. If you want to do your own project management, then go with COR and expect the worst.
Hired COR to paint/texture (Coolwall) and remove/install a new roof in Westminster, CA.Work is excellent and overall, the experience is pain-free. They stand by and back up their customer satisfaction claim with quality work and quick responses.The quote process can be lengthy and the prices are higher, but the results are fantastic.
Fantastic job on the windows and painting! My home looks better than when I bought it. Highly recommended!!! A+++
I have a wonderful new roof.
This company did a great job for our home in lomita! From beginning to end there really wasn’t anything I could complain about. When going over paint options, they even recommended different textures, siding, and had house renderings to show us which was perfect for us. I would definitely recommend Cut Once Remodeling to anyone!
COR came out and did a killer job on the exterior of my home. In the process they removed the all the rock siding and installed new Hardy board siding. They took their time and paid a lot of attention to detail. The house looks great and externally modern. You guys crushed it! Im 100% satisfied.
Absolutely amazing company. After they did my windows and roof I hired them to do the roof at my daughters house. Three out of three job went seamlessly. Look no further. I would recommend them to anyone.
Very happy with the work the house looks really nice.
The C.O.R. crew did an excellent and expedient paint job on our new home this month. The crew was always in communication over what needed to be done on the house while working quickly, and meticulously to do a great job. Raoul and his crew never deviated from schedule and their skill shows on the finished product. For a great and reasonable price and a job well done, I cannot recommend C.O.R. enough.
I had sooo many problems with my roof before. I had a bunch of people giving me estimates and I did used someone else first. I wish I didnt. That other company did not patch it right. In fact, they messed up my roof! Once I found Cut Once Remodeling, I was far beyond Impressed with their professionalism and the materials that they used. I gotta be honest, I was afraid again to use yet another company, but I am so happy I did!I wish I could post pictures on here, but either way, I couldnt be happier I chose Cut Once Remodeling. I recommend this company 100%.Definitely will use them again!
The experience with C.O.R, has been Great. The workers kept the yard clean and the house looks absolutely beautiful. I recommend this company to all who needs paint, roofing or what ever is needed COR is the one.
They guys did an amazing job applying Coolwall to my stucco. It looks awesome. Six day process. It want exactly as scheduled and they kept the job site clean along the time of the job. Highly recommended!
We hired Cut Once Remodeling (C.O.R.) to apply the Cool Wall coating to the exterior of our home. The crews were very professional and made sure at the end of each day of work to clean up any mess. They were willing to answer any and all questions that we had. Part way through the painting of the house, members of the work crew pointed out concerns pertaining to our roof. A portion of our roof actually had four layers, two rock layers and two shingle layers. We received a quote for the roof, from C.O.R., and hired them for the work on the roof as well. As goes with roofing, some wood needed to be replaced and after the completion of the roof the Cool Wall crew came back and reapplied the coating to all of the new wood. We are very happy with how the house turned out and we have received many compliments from our neighbors.
After 5 days of work, the house looks great!
Got my windows and roof done my this company. They did a an amazing job. Comunication was excellent!
We had put off doing repairs to our house for some time when we had a long period of cold heavy rain with our garage roof leaking. We decided we needed to get it repaired. It was our fortunate luck to meet a field representative of Cut Once Remodeling, who offered to arrange a presentation meeting with us.This is when we met Joey, who set up a professional meeting promptly and on time to offer C.O.R.s products and services which met a lot of our needs to repair our home. He was kind, very understanding and listened to all our incessant questions. He was very helpful in matching the work we wanted done to our budget.We would see him as our adviser, problem solver, and friendly professional.throughout the whole project. He promptly returned calls and often in the heavy rain come to our house to help us to work out what little issues that we had. We were needy of his advice.and assurances.In our work on our home, we met Miguel and David, who provided quality control, timely follow up field inspections to make sure that their work crews continued to meet their high quality work expectations.At one time the senior city building inspector came by to inspect the roof and he said that he normally didnt see the high quality of work and materials that C.O.R.uses in their projects that they have worked on in our city. He wished that other companies were as professional as C.O.R. as he could expect a high standard of workmanship and his job could be much easier. He noted that any suggestions that he made, the crews coordinated with David and Miguel to discuss the situation with us so that we could make intelligent decisions as to what options we should use. Both Miguel and David would meet with us at our earliest convenience and inform us of the condition. We were always updated on the progress of the work needed.And the work went smoothly on.The work crews always showed up on time and sometimes earlier than we thought was their start time, but under cold and wet heavy rain days, they worked hard sometimes with little to no break times. . We thank them for their dedication and hard work to get the work done on time. We wish to thank Victor who headed up one of the early crews, he was always helping out and made sure everyone;s job easier as well as keep to finish his teams part on time.There is one person who we wish to thank especially since..so far his name escapes us because we are senior citizens with short memories . But we thank you for all you have done for us. We always talked to Joey who helped us but we know that quite often he consulted with you and you offered solutions which was more than we have ever thought was possible.Our project is almost at full completion and our neighbors who are mostly retired or near retirement folks have walked by on their exercises and have complemented all the work and the quality that your C.O.R. company gives to their customers. We have recommended your company to them and they keep saying that our house really has raised their property values in this time of need for refinancing during this time of Covid 19 and the need to have spending money.Thank you sir, for keeping people working, and helping homeowners with improving their properties and property values. We all need companies like yours.
They dropped by stating they were Substitutes for Pacific Homeworks who lost their Licence 3/3/2020. They gave me estimate for 750 sqft replacement of Vinyle siding with wood siding covered with Cool Tex coating and quoted $25k but I could get $5k discount! I stupidly said OK ! Then i got 2 more quotes, both Under $10k !
The workers were very thorough and professional. The Q.C team was also very professional and notified me when the workers were coming. Process was explained every step of the way .
COR did a great job redoing all the stucco and painting my home. On our first meet, they went over a few options and explained the benefits of each. The work they explained went exactly as planned. I am 100% satisfied with the finished job. Thank your COR!
I’ve worked with this company several times over the past year and have always been impressed. They did my patio, windows, and now they just painted and did my stucco. If I ever want anything done with them home I’ll be calling this company back again!
Extremely pleased with crew workmanship and cleanliness of the roofing project. Highly recommend COR.
I hired COR This pst January. They did an absolutely amazing job with my patio cover. Its really nice not to use that umbrella any more. Im extremely satisfied with my decision of hiring this company. I would recomend them to anyone.
Removed roof and replaced
Installed my furnace, roof, and tankless water heater. They crushed it! If I ever have future projects to do. Ill be calling these guys back! Thank you!
