It seems the performance depends on the staff at the time, it changes. Oscar was great when doing a bathroom, timely, well done. But—when it came to the addition, which was promised in two months, it took 9 months; it was a different set of workers, and it was a small room, yet it dragged on for reasons unknown, for nine (9) months. Since it was inside the house, I could not go anywhere, I was imprisoned for 9 months. At the ends, it was not so good, the ceiling has cracked in the middle, it was one little 10X20 room, for Gods sake. No the less, Oscar and Aldo are real charmers.
Great service and great communication. Timely work as well. Really great insight into home renovations/extensions too. Would highly recommend.
Wonderful staff!
GMG services is the only contractor I will consider doing business with in the DC area.
I cannot use too many superlatives to describe their work and the experience contracting some bathroom tasks with them. In fact, if I could rate five stars to any one business on Google, it would be this one.
I have experience in handyman and light remodeling tasks for income in college, so I know my way around Home Depot and doing many home improvement tasks. I took a desk job as a career since and recently bought a house a few years ago, shifting my time and focus and I got out of practice of remodeling work.
When it was apparent that I needed to gut my condo bathroom for a once a century renovation, I had the same apprehensions like anyone else;
if I contract out the work, will they:
1. Do a great job?
2. Not take me for a ride in pricing out tasks, etc?
Sound familiar?
Given the rush of pandemic home improvement for contracting and some time on my hands, I decided to jump in and do it myself, possibly out of a desire for self-punishment. :)
As reality set in on the scope of work, I entertained offers from 5 different companies and had some not stellar experiences before GMG came along. Oscar first came to my attention in responding to my work request by being flexible in piecing out tasks of the renovation job and recommending that I replace my cast iron drain pipes. He wanted to make sure it was done right, regardless of who did the work, so he returned the call, even though his shop was booked. I looked into it and saw the need for pipe replacement. I became a fan.
They fit in a task of rebuilding the subfloor and drain pipes in the bathroom and tub installation. I noticed the attention to detail of setting the floor, challenges of the old space and even giving me a heads up on issues like the levelness of the floor, rather than letting me figure it out by myself. The contractor, Nelson Reyes didn't have to, but its attention to detail like this that makes the services his crew performed stand out.
Later, when the birth of our second child was moved up and life got really crazy, I called GMG services again to get the remaining bathroom tasks finished. Edmundo and company got to work, in what I consider a superhero task getting this bathroom to the finish line. They made sure that our particular tastes were accounted for and had finishing touches that were perfect for the job required and quirks of a 1940s building. Several fewer things to worry about while juggling a toddler!
Oscar saw my obvious bind in needing GMG's services and worked out a fair bid price for scope of work regardless.
Knowing firsthand the skill and energy it takes to do this type of renovation work, trust me when I say its money well spent with this company. GMG did a great job at a more than fair price and earned my trust.
My only regret in the process is not turning over everything to them to begin with. If you do, you will be in good hands.

My experience with this company started off ok but ended up being a total headache that is still not over (small 3 week project started in August, still going!). Tons of confusion and communication issues within the company and with me. Calls not returned, info not passed on, etc. Issues with the work itself. Several small mistakes that wasted time going back to fix. One big mistake that is going to create a new project for me along with more demo and likely more expense. To add insult to injury i went back to audit the receipt and found i had overpaid by several hundred dollars. Reached out two weeks ago amout getting reimbursed for this amount.... still no resolution on that either.
GMG Services did an outstanding job at a very competitive price on some minor remodeling for my bed and bath addition. Many well-rated contractors were not interested in a small job. I received a high level of care and attention from Oscar Molina and his team, from estimate to punch list. The crew was neat and respectful of my questions and opinions. The company has a job inspector who visits, monitors progress and troubleshoots projects. Change orders and minor issues were not a problem. Punch list items were completed promptly, when many contractors would have moved on to the next job. Oscar responded promptly and positively to voice and email inquiries and requests. GMG will definitely get my next construction job.
GMG Services gave me a fair estimate on doing some work on my master bathroom. They were very neat, cleaned up after themselves and quite simply did a fantastic job. I would recommend them without reservation and in fact, intend to use them the next time I need some work done.
