I contacted Sweeney along with other contractors to get a quote for moving a dryer vent. I spoke with Kari who asked me to send in photos which I did immediately. Kari then followed up later that day and two days later to thank me for my patience as they talk it through. No response from me was needed. Three days later Kari got back to me and instead of giving me a quote, she questioned whether or not I knew if it was a dryer vent or bathroom vent (its definitely a dryer vent) and that it could be an illegal placement. If I wanted someone to come out, it would be $110/hr plus a trip charge. I called in to explain my disappointment that they werent able to provide me with a quote like we had agreed upon and that Id like to know more about why they think its an "illegal placement" because I dont want someone to come out here only to charge me a minimum of $110 plus a trip charge just to say they cant do anything. Kari was unable and unwilling to provide any further details so I asked to speak to the project manager Lane who made this determination. I was instead passed to Tim Sweeney, presumably an owner at this company. He also refused to provide more details that would allow me to make an informed decision. Instead he kept saying these small projects are just IMPOSSIBLE to estimate and the only way to move forward was to send someone out for $110/hr plus trip charge. I again asked for further clarification on what his company meant by "illegal placement" and he continued to deny my request. He then said he didnt know why I was calling when Kari reached out to me three times this week! The first time was to acknowledge receiving my photos, the second time was to apologize for the delay, and the third time was to say my vent is "illegal" and requires someone to come out at $110/hr plus trip charge. I called for a quote! Obviously we decided this company wouldnt be a good fit. I have appointments next week with other top rated handymen to come out and review the situation, like a company should do. Be careful with this company; it just doesnt smell right.

“I had looked for a service provider to address some maintenance issues at my home but never thought of this firm since they seemed to be oriented toward larger projects. well, I was wrong. They provide all sorts of services including "handyman" sorts of work. The beauty of what they do is they bring the big project skill and professionalism to even the smallest task. Needless to say I consider them a "go to" resource for all my home projects.”

I contacted Sweeney about a large remodel job Id like to do to my house. Linda called me back and was a bit discouraging throughout the conversation. Hlafway through the conversation, she hung up on me and never called back. I was pretty bummed after reading all these great reviews. Sweeney construction did not even give me the proper chance to explain our wishes and come on out for a quote/bid.

Sweeney remodeled my bathroom. The quality of the work was exceptional. The workers in my home were courteous, honest, and extremely professional. I have already began the process of hiring Sweeney for another project. I really love supporting a local business, and Sweeney is so professional and outstanding that the decision to hire was extremely simple.

Ive had a great experience so far working with Tim and Linda. They have been super helpful and patient as we figure out plans for remodeling our home. They have both taken time to listen to my questions and have provided great resources to help us make decisions.

We’ve been in Madison for >30yrs and have settled on Sweeney as our main contractor to help maintain and update our old house. They are very professional; they have always provided us quality work at a cost effective rate.

Jeff came out to look at the cause of some of the water that was in our basement awhile ago. My husband was thrilled with how nice and helpful he was.

Tim Sweeney is professional, kind, hard-working and a man of integrity. He and his staff do an amazing job and I would recommend them to anyone!

Everything went well - Matt, the carpenter, was great and professional, and Lane was helpful with scheduling.
