Double wall oven install. They showed up on time and completed the project with good execution at a reasonable price. I would definitely use them again.

Totta was excellent, the end result looked absolutely amazing. Randy oversaw the project and clearly pays attention to the details, our flooring was damaged in a water leak and after the work was completed, it was as if nothing happened...except the floors looked even better than before.

Our steep staircase leading to the basement was an accident waiting to happen with no safety railing in place. We finally decided to suck it up and fix the problem, and Totta Hardwoods came to the rescue!

Shane Self did a great job replacing our home door and installing a new storm door, building new patio steps and railing outside our home. Great attention to detail, kept a clean work space, and great communication throughout the process. We will definitely be using this company again in the future.

If you go with this company, ask for Shane Self. He dedicated nearly two entire work days to fix two drywall issues we had, as well as mounted a new microwave when no one else could provide us a good solution. He gave constant updates throughout the process and explained everything very thoroughly. Very happy with his work and the company overall.

How we grade

Satisfaction (54%) — Recency-weighted star average (2-year half-life), shrunk toward the category mean by review volume; the company’s own lifetime average as the prior; absolute: 4.0★ = 0, 5★ = 100.

Reliability (24%) — How rarely jobs go badly: share of 1–2★ reviews — 60% the last 24 months (or the 20 newest if fewer), 40% all-time; 0% = 100, 15%+ = 0; the category percentile can only raise it.

Craft & service (penalty, up to −10) — Google review highlights: Quality, Professionalism, Responsiveness, Punctuality — how rarely reviewers flag them as a negative, per review since highlights began; 0% = 100, 5%+ = 0. Subtracted from the score (up to −10), never averaged in — clean highlights are the norm, not a bonus.

Value (14%) — Customers’ own price verdicts (Great / Reasonable vs Overpriced) and Value highlights; 65% absolute (all “reasonable” ≈ 80, “great” = 100), the category percentile can only raise it.

Momentum (penalty, up to −10) — Penalises only a real slide: last-12-month average below lifetime (−0.5★ = 0). Still 4.8★+ over the last year, or steady/improving = 100. Subtracted from the score (up to −10), never averaged in.

Replies to reviews (7%) — How often the owner publicly replies to reviews under 5★ (1–4★). Needs 3+ such reviews, otherwise not counted; 65% absolute (80%+ replied = 100), the category percentile can only raise it.
