Kandu Enterprise

Needed repairs and inspection for time sensitive home purchase. Kandu Enterprises, Port Angeles completed tasks to satisfaction of mortgage company. Will be calling them again for other projects.

Overall, Kandu was very good to work with and I expect to hire them again for future work. We had some fairly extensive water damage in our home from a problem with our old roof. We got a few quotes and went with Kandu. They told us up front that the original estimate would change because we couldn't see the full extent of the damage until they started tearing into the wall. The cost did end up being higher than the estimate, but the team clearly explained why and we were okay with the final amount we paid. They also replaced the glass on a few of our windows per our request.

Pros: The team that did the work, especially Brandon and Kenny, were great. Professional, courteous, and reliable. They showed up when they said they would and kept me informed of the plan as we went along. They also tolerated quite a few questions on my part. Greg also came to the site multiple times to check in and lend a hand. Kandu brought in a subcontractor for the drywall mud and wall texture, and he did great work too.

All their work was high quality. The finished interior wall is perfect -- can't even tell where the original wall ends and their repairs begin. The exterior repairs are solid, which was critical because there were load-bearing sections to deal with. (The exterior painting is pending better weather.)

Cons: Just one -- some of the communication between us and Kandu and between the folks within Kandu was hit-and-miss. We know some of that was on us, so for our next project, we'll have a better plan of exactly what we want and will follow up in writing to make sure we're all on the same page. But some of the miscommunication was also on their side. Because of this, the project didn't move as quickly as we wanted. In the end, though, everything came together and we were happy with the results.

Looking forward to working with them again.

We have had a great experience with Kandu Enterprises. They are knowledgeable, honest, and provide quality work. We would definitely use them again.
