Besides having 3 pieces of furniture to put together, I had some easier tasks as well, which is why I requested 2 guys for one day. (I had no idea Caio and Oscar worked for another company on the island. and thus had other responsibilities.) We agreed I would pay $75. an hour to each of them. They arrived at 8:00 am on a Friday, and worked until 12:00 putting the 3 pieces together, doing a nice job. I had shown them the other smaller jobs, so they were aware there was more work to do. But at 12:00 Caio said he was going home and Oscar would be taking him to the ferry. I asked if Oscar (who doesn't speak English) would be coming back. Caio said yes, but Oscar also would be taking a break for lunch. At 12:30, Oscar did return and worked for 30 min. completing one small task. Then he signaled that since he was going to the recycling place to dump trash, he could take mine as well. I indicated he could take several cardboard boxes (and also take 30 lbs. of Children's books which I had offered to Caio for his little boy.) When we discussed the additional work, I made it clear hat I was home every day, and they were welcome to stop by at their convenience to finish the remaining jobs. I actually waited for 2 weeks thinking they would show up! Silly me. What Caio didn't seem to understand is that NO ONE would accept a job requiring a trip to SJI for 2-3 hours of work, which is why I had included those tasks to the furniture construction. So I am left wondering what to do !!??!! In summary: Caio and Oscar were very pleasant and did nice work, for as long as they felt like working. They were also thoughtful to add my boxes to their trip to the recyclers. I was also very nice, willing to adjust to their work schedules and giving little Noah more than $200 of books rather than taking them to the resale shop. Would I hire them again? No. Since they were on SJI Glass's time clock, I feel SJI Glass should receive $300 for Caio's 4 hours of work and $340 for Oscars 4.5 hours. We are all nice people; I'm just sorry this job didn't work out better.

Reviews
Updated Review: We unfortunately decided to use this company again in another City. They were more than happy to meet there & spend hours taking measurements. What they failed to tell us is that they bit off way more than they could chew with this project, being that it was too far from where they were based, they couldn't coordinate with another crew for help, & instead of being professional & letting us know these issues, they continuously dodged our calls & texts for WEEKS. I had to have one of my bosses call from another number just so they would actually answer & we could speak. After which they were embarrasse. Never using them again, simply because of the unprofessionalism & giving us the run around. If you are located in Naples, I'm sure they will do great work for you. Anywhere else, don't even bother with them. Initial Review: We are beyond happy with the work done by Crown 360 Molding. They were quick, extremely thorough, & very responsive. We will definitely be using them again on future projects.
Very pleased.
Super nice and very professional. He came the same day that I called and left the project space clean. I will be calling him again! Highly recommend.
We hired Kyle for several tasks… wall mount tv installation, bath hardware installation, furniture building. He is very knowledgeable and capable. He goes above and beyond and on top of that, he is a very special person.
Would hire again
Kyle was wonderful the first visit, He has work left to do on the next visit.
I hired Caio today for a small job and he was fantastic from start to finish. He responds very quickly and is great with following through in a timely manner. His pricing is very fair. I would recommend him 7 days a week and twice on Sunday. Thank you Caio for helping me, much appreciated.
Kyle did great quality work and is very professional. It’s hard to find people nowadays take great pride in their work and Kyle definitely does that.
