Review by in Prince George, VA
They only charge $1,000 for the entire roof of my garage, and it was a good deal. This included removal of all the old shingles, and hauling all of the used material off the property to the dump. -Debra Castrinos

Project: Brick or Stone Tuck-Pointing
Grady did not take a dime until he was done. His estimates were accurate. He performed the job quickly and when he said he would. Grady is a rare specialist in old houses - there were few people i could turn to when i needed to repoint the basement foundation of my Brooklyn brownstone from 1880. Grady knew the historic mortar mix that was appropriate to use (Virginia limeworks lime and sand) and he cares as much about my house as I do - promises to return once in the summer and again in the fall to make sure the mortar is curing properly. Great job Grady! You are a straight guy, easy to work with, and very very knowledgeable.

Review by in Cortland, NY
Project: Repair Plaster - For Business
Grady has done a wonderful job on repairs to our cemetery chapel. We had significant damage to the ceiling in the chapel which was built in1922 using the old methods with horsehair and pig bristle. Grady's repairs look exactly like the original ceiling's plaster work. I will recommend Mr. Grady's craftsmanship to everyone. Excellent work. Bob Morris VP Trustee Cortland Rural Cemetery

Project: Repair Plaster
Grady was very professional and showed well knowledge in what he does. He went leaps and bounds above his normal duties, and also showed a real concern for our buildings problem. He was super fair on pricing and very detail oriented in his findings.

Project: Repair Plaster
Grady is very friendly and does a great job. He is honest. He didn't ask for any money until well into the job, almost done. Then the balance due at the completion of the job. He is true to his word.

Project: Repair Window Frames
It is with deep satisfaction that I recommend Grady�s Painting and Plastering & Construction. Mr. George Grady is a skilled craftsman. He was hired to correct long neglected and extensive masonry and window issues on a large, beautiful Presbyterian Church built in the Civil War era in Philadelphia. The property was neglected with only minimal maintenance performed over the last 40+ years. The building was in severe decline and in need of stabilization and restoration on many fronts. Cracked ledge plates were chipped out and reestablished, internal walls damaged by leakage were broken out and repaired, brickwork was repointed and in severe cases reestablished to original strength and beauty. Leaks around the base of the building were addressed to stabilize deterioration of the foundation. Large rotted window sills under beautiful stained glass windows were restored after significant masonry reestablishment due to water damage under the rotted out sills. Broken and missing stained glass windows are in the process of repair and replacement. The process started with new metal frames cast by Mr. Grady. The new frames will hold clear painted replications of the original stained glass, also crafted by Mr. Grady. Regular windows all around the church and manse were also repaired and restored. Roof leaks were accurately identified and repaired. A sagging plaster ceiling has been torn out and restored. All this work was done by Mr. Grady alone or with an occasional helper. He worked with care, expertise and respect for the original structure. The results far exceeded our expectations and have injected new life into a building on the brink. This building, owned by the Presbytery of Philadelphia, now houses a new urban ministry in a newly gentrifying area of the city. We are happy to have had the good fortune to be connected to Grady�s Painting and Plastering & Construction by Service Magic.

Review by in Philadelphia, PA
Mr. Grady was great initially. He was very knowledgeable and friendly. He worked hard and pulled in others to assist; however, one day he just never came back to finish. I hope everything is ok with him.
Response by Grady's Painting Plastering/Construction: was,hired to rebuild a stone front porch. prior,to starting of th is job the city of philadelphia issued a building danger violation the client did not disclose of this informathion until after the contract was agreed upon, and legally set in motion. at that point i had no way to turn other then to at least on my part,to keep my word,and do the job. the city of philadelphia officially gave me aok, on the job when fully completed. a set of pictures, were taken before job was started, during the job and after job was fully completed and inspected by the city of philadelphia. also, there was no complaints or any one complant to service magic

Project: Repair Window Frames
very meticulous and detailed, excellent outcome
Response by Grady's Painting Plastering/Construction: well,you see the results,consumers windows were 109 years old at time of repairs.a wood window professionally restored will outlast any modern replacement window several times over.this is partly because its original period craftsmanship,but mostly it is because the first growth lumber used in period construction is far more stable,dense and rot resislant than any now available it doesnt make sense to replace a beautiful historic window that can last another century with modern replacement window which will last only 15 to 20 years..thats also true for,any type of small repairs, including,any wooden window 50 years and older.

What is the screening process that Service Professionals go through in order to become members of the HomeAdvisor network?

  1. Verify Trade License
    HomeAdvisor checks to see if the business carries the appropriate state-level license.
  2. Verify Insurance
    As a part of our screening process, we encourage professionals to carry general liability insurance. We require coverage for hundreds of services.
  3. Verification of State Business Filings
    For business types that require a Secretary of State filing, we confirm that the business is in good standing in the state in which it is located.
  4. Criminal Records Search
    HomeAdvisor uses 3rd party data sources to conduct a criminal search for any relevant criminal activity associated with the owner/principal of the business.
  5. Sex Offender Search
    We confirm that the owner/principal is not listed on the official state Sex Offender web site in the state in which the owner/principal of the company is located.
  6. Bankruptcy Search
    We use 3rd party data sources to check the history of the principal/owner of the business for bankruptcy filings by or against them.
  7. Legal Search for Civil Judgments
    We use 3rd party data sources to check the principal/owner of the business for state level civil legal judgments entered against them.
  8. Liens Search
    We use 3rd party data sources to check the principal/owner of the business for liens placed against them.
  9. Identity Verification (SSN)
    HomeAdvisor verifies the social security number(s) of the owner/principal for identity check purposes. This check applies primarily to smaller business entities.
