"     Wes is the owner of the company and is hands-on at every juncture.  He and his crew were professional and responsive.  His initial bid was about 20% more than comparable, but we elected to go with his company as we were interested in a high-quality build.  I must say - I believe we got more than what we paid for.  The finished product is amazing.  The quality of Wes' work is unmatched.  He makes sure that everything is done right - down to all the structural and grading details that may not be evident from the surface. 
     It took three months for him to start our job, but he was up front and honest about this when he gave us the bid.  He states that he only takes one job on at a time and I can confirm that this is the case as his crew was at our house almost every day.  I say almost every day since our job had a number of delays by the heavy rains this winter.  Our yard used to mini-flood with each heavy rain making it difficult to do any construction in when wet.  The drainage now is amazing with no more lakes in our yard after the rain.  
     He worked with us on all the details of the design including grass and plant selection, stone selection (pavers, stone for the side of the island, and granite for the top of the island), and light selection.  The building inspector commented on how well the gas lines, water pipes, drainage, and electrical were done.  We have a new house and the project construction superintendent came over to see what we were doing and commented "wow, this guy does things the right way".  
     There were several curveballs that popped up throughout the job that Wes dealt with very professionally.  There were delays due to rain as mentioned, but also due to the granite fabricator making an error and the granite had to be completely re-cut and re-done (no additional cost to us of course) and the built-in BBQ had to then be tweaked to fit the re-cut granite.  Wes was sure to fix everything and his words were always "I want you to be completely happy with everything".  I certainly am.  I will be using his company again in the future for sure as we also have a side yard to do later this year.   
      I am not sure to convey how impressed I am with the quality of work and professionalism that Wes and his company deliver.  Don't dismiss the higher price of his bid.  You get what you pay for.  I have neighbors that used cut-rate contractors and they have had major headaches and are not happy with their experiences.  I am happy to tell Wes that I am completely happy with my experience.

"Mr. Parks and his workers were thorough, polite and efficient. My gutters were full and badly clogged because of several years of neglect. They removed all debris from my roof and dug out the gutters by hand until they got water freely flowing through the downspouts. It was a positive experience from beginning to end."

"I contacted Gabriel and explained the problem. He came out the same day and gave me an estimate. I had received an estimate from another plumber. Gabriel was a fraction of the previous estimate. He did the job and it works great. I was very happy with his professionalism, quality of work and pricing. I will definitely use his service in the future."

"We had a stoppage in our patio drainage system near where several pipes meet. It wasn't clear exactly what the best avenue of attack would be. I suggested one opening which I thought was the straightest shot to the problem, but there was another the tech wanted to try first. That one seemed to lead to a T that couldn't be passed. The tech then used my original suggestion and that turned out to do the trick after some struggle with the blockage. There is usually an additional charge for going down more than one drain hole, but since success came with my original suggestion there was no additional charge which I thought was fair. In any event problem solved quickly and for the agreed upon price.
BTW, concerning the price, there is a rate sheet on their web page that lays it all out which I appreciate. There are 3 tiers: regular, overtime and double time which correspond to regular hours, off hours/weekends, and late hours/sunday/holidays. I had the work done on a Saturday morning so the indicated rate was overtime. However, there was a moment of confusion at the point of final payment when the office claimed it should be double time since it was Thanksgiving weekend. The rate sheet, original over the phone conversation and the quote from the tech on arrival all were for the overtime not the double time rate. To their credit, this was honored without too much fuss. The take away here is make sure you know which rate you are expected to pay especially when you are booking on or near a holiday. For example, is the Saturday of Easter weekend double time? It might be.
Anyway, great experience. I recommend The Drain Co.

"We met with Jeff in April after not connecting with other contractors the year before. Loved the idea of the larger patio roof with integrated rain gutters and the price was justified. Decided to replace the flagstone patio area and pool deck with pavers and then added on the front walkway as well. Replacing the sliding glass door had always been in the plan. Broke ground right before Memorial weekend, which is when we decided to add on an additional walkway, fake grass, and mow strip. No problem except the flagstone stepping stone walkway was removed prior to our go ahead (my husband had told Jeff he needed to talk to me first). Jeff uses different crews for different parts of projects: paver crew, patio cover crew, rain gutter crew, lawn crew, door installer/handyman at the end. All the foremen of these crews speak English so it was easy to communicate with them and they were very willing to accommodate changes and listen to ideas. The only hard part is that they just show up sometimes to do X, Y, or Z. It wasn't a huge problem but would have appreciated a quick text. The project took longer than expected as Jeff refused the first door sent to him for install because it was damaged (thank you) and then it was back ordered. Meanwhile, other parts of the project were getting done. Overall, it turned out great. My husband and I love it, our friends and family love it, and it has expanded our living space as well."

"SES is the best company you can think of when it comes to remodeling your house. I finished my project 6 months ago and the communication was great. Maiia from the office kept on following up with every question we had. We had the SES app that we communicated easier and saw pictures of our project throughout the process. We live half of the year in Russia and due to COVID we couldn't come back so it took a while until we were able to see how it came out. Job was done properly, they cleaned the house when they finished and it was a pleasure to do business with them."

"Tl;dr: Easy to work with: 5 stars, super easy to work with Customer Service: 5 stars, really great customer service Quality: 4.2 stars, there was some less-than-perfect work. Most of it addressed. We had a major remodel done with these guys, and they were super easy to work with. Great customer service and very attentive and in communication. No issues at all with how the work was coordinated, scheduled, performed,. The coordinator we worked with (Valko) was excellent. Listened to us and was accommodating when we needed him to be. There are a couple of marks taken away for some quality issues with the finishing work: some parts of the subfloor on remodeled areas (not part of the addition) were not repaired perfectly, and the floor bows slightly and creaks in a couple of spots. One door frame is not plumb. Some of the painting was done a little sloppily. The tile in the shower and bath is not 100% perfectly straight. Overall, would recommend, they do good work and are great to work with."
