Agape Construction, St. Louis MO

I sourced Agape as they had a good reputation. They do the design/architectural drawings, which you pay for (in my case it was approx $5K for the 2 phase design process) ; however, you don't get ownership of the drawings until you sign a construction contract. I understood this and was okay with it as their initial bid fit in my budget; however, by the time we got to the end of the process their price nearly doubled (the scope of work did not double). I sourced 3 other contactors since then and they were all in my budget, which was near Agape's original quote. I asked if I could have or purchase the drawings to which they refused and began using the drawings/3D walkthrough, which I paid for, on their social media. I found this to be in poor taste. To give a small glimpse into their pricing they were going to replace a bay window as part of the project and budgeted $17K-$20K. Pella is doing it for $6K, which is who they use for windows. The reason they got 2 stars rather than 1 is for their Architect (Taylor) she was absolutely amazing and had some really great ideas.

Contracted for a new design/build kitchen. They appear to have a good process for selection of counter, cabinets, fixtures, cabinet hardware, flooring, etc. Planning nearly complete. Check back with us around March to see how it all turned out. We've used Agape before for some minor remodeling and handyman work. Our neighbors had them redo their kitchen. So far, not one complaint noted.

I sent a review previously with flying colors because I had a good experience with the company a couple of years ago (?). I decided to use them again for the several projects I have for our house. The last invoice I received in my email contains the same info (numbers) that I already questioned them a few times. I don’t believe the invoice was correct because the handyman was not in my house for that long. I paid off the amount in the invoice (just to get this over with) and my husband & I decided that we are not hiring them ever again. A word of unsolicited advice, keep a journal of the comings and goings of the handyman that you let in your house.

Absolutely amazing company! Respectful, great workers, and absolutely beautiful work! Wouldn't use any other company!

We are very pleased with the work that Agape did for us. It turned out beautifully. Every person that we had contact with was professional and courteous. The work was high quality, and when mistakes or mishaps occurred, they were quickly corrected. The project manager kept us up to date every step of the way and kept the work moving so that the project was completed on the original schedule.
