Our top priority is providing high-quality home repair solutions and personalized service across Alabama, Georgia, Kentucky, Florida, and Tennessee.

"These guys are very responsive when they are trying to sell you something. However, I have had two different projects done with them and I am experiencing problems with the work. I've called twice in the last 10 days to get someone to repair shoddy work and can't even get their service people to set up an appointment or even return calls. As a business owner myself, I don't usually make bad reviews, but this is ridiculous!"

Our distinction is the quality of service we bring to our customers. Accurate knowledge of our trade combined with ability is what makes us true professionals.

"Work done fairly. Some spots poorly. A promise to install a 4?x4? was NOT done. Made calls to KC Nummy with a second promise to complete the work as promised. Acknowledge one call and again promised to complete the work. I made subsequent calls to Nummy which were just ignored and never replied. I just gave up. Not reliable unless you have it in writing. Do Not make a payment until all work is completed. I paid at my peril."

Gutter Shutter is proven to never sag, bend, clog, or pull away from your home, meaning you no longer need to climb a ladder and clean out the gutters again.

"I just want to warn anyone who is thinking about having their house encapsulated by Cantey that it will add about 60 to $70 a month onto your utility bill because of the dehumidifier that they put under the house. Cantey did a very professional job however one of their workmen left one of the sump pumps unplugged and we had a leak from the air conditioner air handler under the house and wound up with about 6 in of standing water under the house on top of the encapsulation. I wish i had never had the encapsulation done."

Holland Homes LLC is a full service residential contracting company for all of your needs. From small repairs to full custom homes and renovations there is no job too big or small. We provide a quality service for all of our valued customers while providing a superior product on all of our projects. Our priority is to achieve full customer satisfaction on every job while building a relationship of trust with every client to ensure a successful job. With great attention to detail on every job, and an ear for the homeowners needs, we are able to provide top quality service and satisfying construction process to our customers.

"Subcontractors were mostly good, but management of them was lacking. I had to personally supervise them because the on site contractor rarely stayed very long. Told the trim finish crew to leave because they did not know how to install crown molding. Got another crew that knew what they were doing. They never asked for periodic payments during the job (as is typical); presented one huge bill at the end. Holland homes builds nice homes, but I would not recommend them for small jobs like mine because you do not get the best crews and you have to wait for them to fit you into their schedule."

Patios questions, answered by experts

You should have at least 4 to 6 inches of compactable base under your concrete slab. Your contractor may recommend more depending on the structure.

It’s possible to pour concrete if the temperatures are expected to dip below freezing at night, but you need to take some special precautions before you do. Most importantly, you need to make sure your concrete won’t freeze, so the best thing to do is enclose the area and heat it. You should also make sure you’re using cold-weather concrete that’s designed for pouring in cold weather. Use accelerants to help speed up the curing process and avoid cold temperatures from resulting in weak concrete.

On average, expect to pay $2,400 to $6,400 for a 20-by-20-foot concrete patio. That price includes concrete materials, labor rates, sealing, and permits. With more complex designs and premium materials and finishes, the cost may be higher. Get quotes from multiple local patio contractors to get a precise estimate for your area.

Yes, including sustainable mixes and reflective surfaces to reduce heat absorption.

By careful site grading and incorporating drainage systems where needed.
