C. Haynes Construction

Had Chris’ team do some paint and electrical work at a rental property. They finished the paint job in two days and the place looks great. Chris was supposed to come back the next Monday to finish the electrical work and do some touch-​up paint. He didn’t show up or call to let me know he wasn’t coming. I was able to find another electrician to finish up the work before my tenants moved in on Friday.
The paint work they did is still great. And the price he charged was very reasonable.

I called Chris Haynes for a home I was interested in but wasn’t under contract yet. He still accepted to come and give me an estimate on a complete kitchen remodel. He was very professional and gave clear explanation of the process we would go through if I accepted his bid.
Now, I didn’t end up getting that home as my offer was rejected by the seller who wanted full price even though there was a lot of fixing to do in that home. But Chris was fine with that.
His quote was a bit high on purpose, because he doesn’t want his customers to be shocked if unexpected additional work is necessary.
I can’t judge him on his actual work since I didn’t go past the estimate. Still, he seems to know his job very well.

My wife and I are very busy real estate agents and we have used C. Haynes Construction on many projects both large and small. We have used him on homes that range in value from $ 250,000 to $ 1 million.
Their work is top notch. The people we use for our clients reflect on us too, and Chris has never let us down.

You should hire this guy. In this business people get frustrated when they don’t get what they expect. This guy and his crew built pocket watches. I’m a perfectionist and you don’t want to work for me ever. I compared bids and his crew came in $ 2000 lower than any of the rest. And that’s not why I hired him. I hired him because of the advice that he gave me regardless of who got the job. I compared that advice with his competitors, and his crew is smarter, faster, and less money. More than, it’s that the guy that referred me to him, Claude Smith, is a highly respected realtor that sold me my million dollar house and recommended that I use Chris Haynes to remodel my bathroom. He’s an architect, he’s a design guy, he’s a master carpenter, tile setter, and straight shooter, to say the least. I love the guy.
The bathroom he designed looks like Gordon Gekko’s. Thanks, man!

I really like Chris Haynes and his work. He is thorough and asks the right questions to arrive at a cost estimate that matches the work and quality needed per project. He is somewhere in between a general contractor and a handyman…
He can build, remodel, paint, or repair just about anything and he has a team of subs for electrical/​hvac/​and plumbing. The first client of mine who worked with Chris wanted a kitchenette added to a living area, repairs to an older hvac, and a roof replaced… an easy list for a general contractor but not so easy for the average handyman. I would not be afraid to hand him a larger, more involved project with a lot of moving parts.
Chris looks like he is about 22 so my immediate thought was to ask him a lot of questions to make sure he knew the ropes. He matched my questions with some answers and more questions of his own that helped refine the scope of the project, and after 30 minutes with him, I knew we had the right man for the job.
He is likeable, a straight shooter, and a hardworker. He is young, but has been doing construction projects since 2005, so don’t hold his youthful exuberance against him… he is smart, and i hope he still has time for more of my projects after he get some well-​deserved Unilocal attention.
