New home construction

$0

1 day

Pompous, rude, not helpful...took his money and ran!

Steve kohlman / Tri star construction claim all new homes come with a one year warranty. However when confronted with questions or issues the owner, Steve, makes you feel like you're crazy and comes up with every excuse under the sun why it's not his fault or "not his problem". Hes pompous and narcissistic...not recommended.

Before you Hire

Here are some rules, regulations, and laws governing general contractors in Rhode Island:

Does Kohlman Construction Co carry a valid contracting license?

All contractors in Rhode Island must register with the Contractors Registration Board to repair or remodel single-family to four-family dwellings within the state.

Kohlman Construction Co currently holds license 818 (Residential Contractor), which was Inactive when we last checked.

Your liability risk when hiring Kohlman Construction Co

Registered contractors must obtain a general liability insurance policy, but are not required to carry workers' compensation. It is a good idea to only hire contractors with general liablity and workers' compensation insurance, request copies of certificates for both policies before any work begins.

How is the BuildZoom score calculated?

The BuildZoom score is based on a number of factors including the contractor's license status, insurance status, verified work history, standing with local consumer interest groups, verified reviews from other BuildZoom users and self-reported feedback from the contractor.

Why you should hire through BuildZoom

When it comes to major construction work or even minor alterations to your home, hiring the wrong contractor could result in incomplete or defective work. You may even find yourself dealing with huge liability claims. BuildZoom does the homework for you and helps you hire the right contractor.

You should get several bids before hiring a contractor

Before hiring a contractor in Rhode Island, be sure to get at least 3 detailed bids. Quality contractors will take the time to explain their budget proposal, and help guide you through the estimate process. Be wary of an abnormally low bid, they are not worth the risk.
