Tierce Construction Inc

as forecasted

Only dealt in person with the sub-contractors which I could have done on my own.  The work that was done was good.  I kept up with the hours myself and when I received the invoice for the painters it was based on the original estimate of hours when in fact they took about 2/3 of that time and had to call and have a corrected invoice sent.  
The original reason we called was to get some outside facia rotting repaired.  When the other work had been done had to call and asked about when the carpenter would be coming.  They had not scheduled one but then sent someone out.  They never got back to us on that so that work never got done.  
No one from Tierce ever came out to inspect the work or to make sure we were happy with the job.  I could have just hired the painter and the flooring guy myself and saved myself some money and trying to get the billing corrected.

It went very well.  It was outstanding. 

All of the people that work for and with Doug are friendly, on-time and top-notch. They talk with us about what they're doing and get our input all the way through things. They've found a few surprises, of course, but have been able to take care of them easily. We've given them a couple of extra things we want done while we're in the middle of all of this and they' manage to work it in with what they're already doing.
I think my wife has already given a review, so this is from a different viewpoint.

Doug did a great job at a fair price and I would not hesitate to call him again or recommend him to someone else.

WITHOUT EXCEPTION, Doug and his various subcontractors were courteous and professional, and the quality of their workmanship was outstanding. They went above and beyond what was asked and Doug kept a watchful eye on our budget. The finished job is absolutely beautiful! (Interestingly, before we hired Doug, we started doing a kitchen remodel using one of the "Big Box" stores. We had plenty of opportunity to regret that decision due to the inconsistent quality of their installers and huge time delays we experienced with THAT project. We wish we had hired Tierce for that job, as well.)
We were delighted with the experience working with Tierce Construction and will definitely call them back when we need additional work done. 

My experience with them went really well and I had no issue whatsoever.  He is basically a middleman, contractor.  He puts other group of guys that do their own work together and uses them for his sites.  He and his men were timely which was a nice thing.  He worked within my budget and was flexible about the payments.  He and his men were courteous.

We were in need of a cement slab to be poured within a few days. I called several contractors. Doug responded,drove out to the location gave me an estimate. Within a couple of days he organized the crew to form the foundation and poured the cement the same day. The slab turned out great.

1. The contractor was very easy to work with.  The porch is exactly what I wanted.  It provides me a very comfortable place to enjoy the outdoors.  It looks great and I love it.

EVERYTHING WENT GREAT, GOOD EXPERIENCE

It all went very well.

Due to the slope of the ground on one side of the house, water was pooling up and causing water damage. Doug came out and went theough everything with me and my wife and got us the quote in a couple of days. We called and said we wanted to have the work done. They were able to start about a week later and were finished in about a week. The ground on the side of the house was resloped with a central drain put in. This tied into the grate drain that was put in between the carport and driveway. This was all diverted into a buried drain that took the water away from the house. The spillway for the drain was my biggest concern due to the possibility of washout around it, but it was put in perfectly. The last heavy rain we had was a good test and there was no moisture on the inside, all the drains worked perfectly and the spill way showed no signs of washout. I will definitely be using Tierce for more projects in the future.

Doug is a general contractor, and although he does some of the work himself, relies upon subcontractors for each speciality; e.g. plumbing, carpentry,masonry, tile, marble, cabinetmaking, electrical, etc.  Doug is also an "idea man" with a good grasp of materiel capabilities, design, functionality, and building codes.  Doug worked with us each step of the way, converting our rough ideas into beautiful finished product.  His subcontractors are excellent craftsmen.  We are extremely pleased with the finished product.  However there are a couple of areas that I encourage others to pay special attention to if they engage Tierce Construction.  The first is time.  It seemed to me that several of the individual projects could have been running concurrently, instead of being done sequentially.  This caused the remodeling project to seemingly last forever.  Granted, the work occurred over the Christmas and New Years holidays, adding to the time required to finish.  Secondly, the overall cost of the project was more than I had expected.  Doug is very good about providing interim statements of work completion; but I found these statements difficult to understand.  Overall, the project cost around 25% more than I had expected given Doug's initial estimates.  Part of this overage was due to the cost of replacing the hot water heater which, fortuitously, failed while the plumber was on site.

I'm 70 and partially disabled.  I joined Angies list specifically to find a reliable handyman to complete several small  jobs that had been accumulating.  Not finding what appeared to be qualified handymen in the local area, I contacted Tierce Construction and asked if they would be interested in such a small job.  I'm certainly glad they were.  The owner, Doug Tierce came by a few days later to do the work himself.  He's a former engineer who went into construction work a few years back when the economy forced his previous employer, a large chemical company, to close.  He's professional and personable.  I had estimated six hours to do the work I needed; he did it in four; especially remarkable I felt, since he had earlier told me that he charges $42.50/hour for work of this nature.  Everything he did was done to my complete satisfaction.  He has been back once, and will return once more to completely finish the dry wall work on my ceiling.  I am now considering several larger jobs, including the laying of wood tiles in my foyer and ceramic tiles in my hallway.  His painters will repaint the foyer prior to the flooring being replaced.  He is researching doors that might be appropriate to separate a now open room from my hallway.  We have discussed an addition to the house in order to enlarge two upstairs bathrooms.  I am not at all hesitant to engage him for any of these tasks.'

Had termites in an outside wall.  Tierce Construction was company used by the pest control company.  They removed the outside and interior wall and replaced all of the damaged wood and insulation.  Stained the new wall to match the existing color on the remaining walls.  Replaced brick at base of wall.  Very professional, took maybe a week to complete. 

They had to completely replace the drywall and the outer wall. It didn?t take them too long to fix it. They did a very nice job. They were very clean and knew what they were doing. The quality of their work was excellent. The work was covered under the termite bond. I was very pleased with their work.

They arrived when they said, did what they said they would and at the price quoted. Quality of work is excellent. Cleaned up after the work was done and left my wife quite pleased which is the whole goal.

The work although slow was done to very good standards of craftsmanship and finishing.
