W.T. Anderson Corp
5.0
After receiving several estimates from contractors to replace my screened porch ceiling (I had already removed the deteriorated plywood ceiling that was installed by the builder in 1992), I was put off by the estimates, ranging up to $5,000. At this point I contacted WT Anderson, who had replaced my roof a few years ago, hoping that they might do this type of work. Tom Anderson came by to see, assured me they do this type of work as it is really installing soffitt material, showed me some samples and subsequently provided an estimate of about $1,400. I selected a white vinyl beadboard. The ceiling also contained two skylights which needed to be trimmed out. The roofing and gutter work previously done by WT Anderson was superb and I had them go ahead and do the job. I subsequently asked them to replace the trim wrap around my garage doors (2) which brought the total cost to $1,740. I thought this was very fair. The two workers from WT Anderson showed up as scheduled, completed the job in one day and the installation went smoothly and looks great. With porch ceiling, they installed strapping to existing framing, plywood to box in the "tunnels" to the skylights, installed vinyl covered metal wrap around the top of the porch walls and then the vinyl beadboard. With the garage doors they removed the existing wrap, replaced two 2x6 framing pieces and then installed new brickmold where needed and new trim wrap around both doors. They were careful to seal all around to keep water out. The finished product looks great. The workers were polite, respectful of the our property and thoroughly cleaned up after completion of the work. Workers is not right word to describe Nestor and his helper, there were skilled craftsmen. WT Anderson will be my "go to" contractor for any outside work in the future

THI was very professional and a pleasure to work with. The Project Manager was always available when needed, very responsive, and personally ensured the quality of all work performed. I did have a slight issue with the initial installation of the new porch railings (THI subcontracted Atlantic Railing for this work). However, THI was very sensitive to my concerns and quickly resolved the issue with Atlantic Railing. The railings were taken down and new railings were fabricated/ installed. Very satisfied. (I attached before and after photos to this review.

We are very pleased with the extremely high quality of the workmanship. The trim wrap is not your typical flat trim, but instead has multiple angles (hard to explain) which looks so much more polished than what I typically see on other homes. Our new porch is amazing and only took a day to install. The owner, Robert, was very responsive and often stopped by to check on the work. Other estimates were slightly lower, but I think the quality of work was worth the extra money. We would highly recommend Mid-Atlantic Exteriors

LOW-PRESSURE EXTERIOR CLEANING

The team did an outstanding job on cleaning our external house. They were able to get off stains that had accumulated and that our kids had done to the siding. We are always pleased with the results this company has done to keep our external house clean while protecting the paint and the siding from bleaching, running or smearing. In addition, this is a professional company that values customers and has an honest work ethic. We had a porch light significantly damaged by water and John personally came out to remove the light, identify the problem and work with the light company to solve the problem. In the end, he bought us a new porch light and installed it himself. We are grateful for his quick response, professionalism and customer service. We HIGHLY recommend John and his company. We will continue to use this company as they clean our external walls and go above and to protect our investment by doing their work outstandingly well and with the utmost integrity

Apprentice To The Master
5.0
My front door was fully exposed to the elements (no porch) causing extensive damage to the wood trim and frame over the years. I submitted a request to my homeowners association to build a small 5'x8' porch over the front door. The homeowners association approved the request, requring the work to be done in 90 days. I used Angieslist to seek out contractors. I contacted three contractors; two replied. Only Apprentice to Master came out to the house providing a parts and labor estimate, which I accepted. The work was scheduled to begin in late September. However, rain delays plagued progress. After removing the rotten wood around the door, work was delayed due to scheduling conflicts. The exposed door frame was covered in plastic to prevent new water damage from more rain. After that, there were several start and stops on the project as the contractor worked on other jobs that were backed up from two weeks of rain we had in late September. The contractor recommended the new porch and door frame material be PVC to avoid future water damage. --- Great recommendation, no painting ever :) The work was completed 3 weeks before the date required by the homeowners association. The porch and repairs exceeded my expectations. The price is more than fair. The quality of work was Ausgezeichnet! The porch is exactly what we wanted, just in time for Halloween! Having worked construction in the past I was appreciative of the attention to detail given to the complexity of this "small" porch

I was out of town when the work was done, but my husband felt that they were on time and worked hard until the porch was completed. I was very pleased with the work when I returned home. The porch was done with treated wood and had to wait a couple of weeks to be painted. I contacted the office and asked for a bid for the porch to be painted. I am collecting a few more bids, but will probably go with this company to finish with the paint

Joe Henry was recommended to me by a neighborhood friend. Joe lives in our neighborhood and I felt that was a great plus. He responded in a timely manner to my request for a meeting to discuss building our new deck and porch. He listened to what I wanted and did not try to sway me away from my original thoughts about the new construction. Within two days he was back with the tenative plans professionally drawn up and with the estimate. I have to be completely honest here..I was so impressed with the way that Joe Henry presented himself that I did not even get another answer. I found him, and over time have continued to find him, dedicated to his craft and honest and concerned about his clients. Please consider using Joe's company for any re-modeling or new construction plans you have. You will NOT be disappointed

The company, Gene, came out and took measurements of the front porch and stairs. He built safety railings for the front porch and stairs. He built a safety railing for the side door entrance. He used heavy metal. Used powder coat painting. He mounted the railings. The job looks great and it is solid

Neptune Construction llc

Contacted Neptune construction through Angies list since I just moved to Virginia. The porch railing and support beams needed to be replaced due to dry rot in time for closing. The worked performed was stellar and quick. I was given a reasonable estimate and the work completed was above and beyond what I expected. The porch looked AWESOME and I couldn't be happier. I had been searching for a contractor for some time with no luck (everyone is just so busy) Chris was able to fit me in and complete the work ahead of the closing which was a few short days away. Chris and his crew are very personable and nice to work with. They kept the area neat (seller was moving out while work was being performed) and the work was as professionally expected. I would recommend this company if you have a repair in mind. Be up front and honest about what you want and expect. Chris had no problem explaining he different types of material available and the costs associated with it. He won't try to up sale you on material and will explain how to maintain they material you chose to keep it as new and in good condition as possible

Work is actually still in process but I had previously given a low grade due to not being contacted once I left email and voice messages asking for a quote. Robert called me immediately and apologized for the oversight and expressed how important reputation was to him. I was impressed with his sincerity and agreed to give it a second chance, and I'm glad I did. I have a high confidence level that things will go well and that I will be happy with the result
Excellent. Used highest quality vinyl handrails to replace old deteriorated wooden ones. Anchored them solidly in the brick porch. Significantly improved the appearance of the front of the house and provided super stability in the solid handrails that support users extremely well. Could not have done a better job
Excellent workmanship by Patrick Smith. I couldn’t be happier with the finished deck. It’s beautiful. He was extremely helpful during the planning stages and made suggestions that enhanced the deck’s appearance. He kept me informed during the entire project and it was finished on schedule. I highly recommend this company and would definitely use them again
It took me a while to make a choice of contractor, but the search was definitely worth it. Al Ferrara and his crew were a delight to work with. They were professional, efficient, expert at their work, and always kept me well informed. I can’t recommend them highly enough! The whole experience was great from start to finish. The work was beautifully done and completed on schedule. I would certainly use them again for any future projects
The deck, perola, and paver patio are incredible. The outdoor area is the envy of my guests! Mr. Davis did an excellent job in construction, delivering the product on time and beautiful finishes.
Fantastic! From start to finish. Glen and his crew are the best. Quality of their work is excellent. Finished the job quickly and on time. Highly recommend.
My handyman had my old screens rescreened by Screen Makers but didn't tell them that I had cats. These screens were easy for the animals to push out of the tracks due to a too small spline (?). Also, the screens were coming out f the frames at the top. There is a division of opinion regarding whether the cats were climbing the screens and that was the cause. When Screen Makers were contacted about my displeasure with the screens (which were less than two years old and had been very expensive, in spite of the fact that new screening was put into the old frames), Gabe came out promptly, gave me a very good estimate for totally new screens (especially compared to what the handyman had charged me) and didn't charge for labor. He said they would be ready in 10 days and would not pull out of the new frames. Gabe arrived to change out the screens exactly when he said he would, worked hard and completed putting up the new screens in several hours (there are more than a dozen screens on my porch; they are about eight feet tall and several feet wide). He charged exactly the amount of the estimate. Gabe is friendly and professional. All in all, I couldn't have had a better experience (unless I had know about his company and gone directly to him the first time!
After months of researching on potential architects and interviewing a few, I hired Seth to undertake a major expansion/renovation of my house. I couldn't be happier with the results. The best decision that I made for my project was to hire him as the architect and project manager. He is great architect and an excellent project manager. Seth put his personal touch on my house but let my style and preferences shine. He also did an excellent job handling the builder, any issue that emerge during construction, and making sure that I made informed decisions about the budget. The craftsmanship of my house is great. That was Seth's work on helping me to choose the builder and undertaking a hands on supervision approach. If you are looking an architect that can help you to do top quality reno in which you want to imprint your style, Seth is sure bet. I also like his direct and honest approach to handle issues that emerged. Seth made a potentially stressful project to go easy in terms making sure that the right decision were being made to have a solid and beautiful renovation. If I had to do the project again, I would hire Seth in a heart bit
After seeing their product at the Minneapolis Home & Garden show we were convinced that this was the right product for our porch improvement work. The guys from EZ-Screen brought samples to our home to help us select frame color and installation method. They took careful measurements of all of the window and door openings and put our order in motion. A few weeks later our windows and door were delivered. We did this work at the same time we had some exterior siding work done by another contractor. We arranged to have that contractor do the actual installation of the EZ-Screen product. The rep from EZ-Screen came out to our site when the installation started to ensure that our contractor understood how to properly install the windows and door. Everything went smoothly and contractor commented on how easy the windows went in. After three full seasons of use we still enjoy the product and we're pleased that we chose this as part of our porch renovation. It has added several additional months to our porch usage in our short Minnesota summer seasons. I highly recommend this product for any new screen porch or porch renovation job
MSH provided a well structured home built to a personalized floor plan suited to our family. It was easy to reach the builder at all times, and his crew was extremely professional. This was an outstanding experience and all of my friends get this companies name when I get asked of anyone who does remodeling or home improvements also. Thanks MSH Homes for doing a top quality job on a reasonable budget
There were some weather delays and some problems with subcontractors since this was one of Keene's first projects after starting the new business and becoming Wavy's Experts on your side. Keene and his partner stayed on the job and fixed any little problems we saw. They have many years of experience working for others in the field and it shows. Their web site has many testimonials and great pictures. At the time I had this done, I was not a member of Angies list. Since then I became a member and think the list is great. Also Paradise Sun Rooms is no longer a WAVY "expert" since they keep their prices low and can't afford to pay $4500 per month for the privilege of staying on the list. Think about this when you need to pay for your son room
Todd and his crew did an amazing job, we love our screened in porch. The crew was professional and were great to work with, would definitely recommend his work to anyone, in fact, he and his crew replaced our daughter l’s front porch!

What do customers in Norfolk say about Porch Builders?
Provided outstanding customer service, and ensured we were completely satisfied with the design before proceeding. New porch included vinyl wrapping and soffits, and matched the design of the house perfectly. There was a bit of a lag before he could start construction because his drawing and design person was out of the office.
