Mike and his team are EXCEPTIONAL!
October 15, 2015
Mike and his team are EXCEPTIONAL! We recently moved to the area and solicited estimates from 5 different companies including the big box stores for a kitchen remodel (from a '50s era ranch home so we didn't have a lot of space to play with). Stress Free Solutions not only helped us stay within our budget but their personal service and customization were exactly what we wanted when remodeling our home (And they came in far below the big box stores). Personal service, solid craftsmanship, and a team that is professional AND courteous is hard to find and Stress Free has it all.
So what did they do for us? They ripped out our old cabinets, installed new ones, helped us plan a new lay-out to open up the kitchen, found us solid ply-wood shelves (most cabinets come with press-board shelves), removed some baseboard heaters, repaired the hardwood floor underneath, took care of the electrical and added granite counter-tops and a new sink.
Their skill is top-notch and I don't think you'll find better customer service anywhere else. Shortly after the new kitchen was in we noticed that one of the cabinet doors didn't close flush with the others. One of the original install team from Stress Free came out to look at it the next day and noticed the door was slightly warped (manufacturing defect) so they ordered a new one and came out and installed it immediately at no extra cost. They follow up to make sure everything is exactly as you want it, they have terrific attention to detail, and if anything needs attention they come out immediately. That kind of customer service is hard to find. Mike and the team at Stress Free don't just want to do the job and leave, they want to be your contractors for life and it shows.
In short, we couldn't be happier with the work they performed and Stress Free Solutions comes with our highest possible recommendation!

Mike was great, starting from the first email interaction.
February 23, 2016
Mike was great starting from the first email interaction. He was always quick to reply and was always ready to answer any questions. Mike came by twice before the day of the install. The first day was for an estimate. The second day was solely to meet my wife so she would feel more comfortable around him and his team for the work since I would be out of town on travel during the install. This was a huge above-and-beyond gesture. The day of the install, Mike and his team were right on time and worked constantly throughout the day until the project was completed mid afternoon. They cleaned up and moved all furniture back as needed. They were a great group that I would invite back in to my house for work anytime.

I highly recommend Mike and his Crew!

They installed lighting and meticulously aligned the wood planks to accentuate the design of the deck. Their carpentry skills are exceptional, adding fine details to construction and design. They applied multiple coats of paint to the exterior of my house including hand staining the wood to ensure longevity of the planks. They installed membranes to prevent moisture damage in my roof and siding. Their attention to detail is evident from the clean/neat seals around the windows to the alignment of the nails in the siding. Mike Rivas met with me numerous times and provided recommendations that not only addressed issues of the immediate job but with foresight for future work that need to be performed and by any contractor. Brian, David, Kevin, Tommy, Peter, and Steve are meticulous and very skilled. My property has features that require some creativity in design and installation. The crew of Stress Free Solutions take care to think through each challenge and did a wonderful job. I've received many compliments on their work from friends, family, and other contractors. The crew are very courteous and professional - they leave my property neat and clean after each day's work and at the end of the project. I highly recommend Mike and his crew. As a matter of fact, I've hired them again for another project!

Great ideas with minimal disruptions to daily life!
June 18, 2008
To whom this may concern,
I am writing this letter in regards to the work that was performed on my house. Mike and his team from STRESS FREE SOLUTIONS have been working on my house for the past couple of weeks. The job started out to be the repairing of rotten boards and securing shingles for painting of the house. The end product was much more! Mike had an extremely meticulous eye for the renovation of my house. He was very easy to work with and had wonderful ideas for restoring the glory to my home. Mike and his strong team completed the job in short order with minimal distruptions to my daily home routine, which is amazing. This is the second project Mike and Stress Free have worked on at my home and I will be sure to have them back immediately to finish the rest of my projects!
Sincerely,
