When our carport fell on our cars after Ida, MLM was the only company that got back to me. They did such a phenomenal job that I hired them to do my total home repair. Never looked back. They were prompt, clean, and such good quality.

MLM was so quick to respond to all of our disaster recovery needs. Ive never dealt with a contractor that did such quality work with such cleanliness and attention to detail. We were very lucky to have MLM make our home whole again with very little worry and in a timely manner.

Unresponsive.. I had a few initial contacts with a salesperson. They told me to call back once water remediation was done. That was a month ago. Several attempts with both the company and salesperson were unsuccessful. If youre busy, give us the dignity to say so.

This man is a monster to say the least. He doesnt pay his employees, sub-contractors, and verbally attacks everyone who works for him. He uses investors to fund his personal profits with nothing to show through his shaky company. His work is shotty at best. DO NOT USE HIM!

MLM was a really good company to work with. They were responsive when I called to get someone to take a look at the project I needed fixed (hurricane damage to my home) and they were professional, always getting back to me in a timely manner, and were always friendly. They went above and beyond with fixing the wrought iron fence, and I was really appreciative of what they did. I would recommend them and would use them again in the future.
