Ceccola Construction Co LLC

They did everything I wanted perfectly. All employees are experts and are very professional. Christian worked hard to give me the most beautiful deck possible at an affordable price. Justin has the best design skills I've known. They were mindful of the water source knob even thought I didn't ask them, and I am very grateful for it. I wholeheartedly recommend this company.

Ceccola replaced our front entry door, sliding door and French doors. The entire process from initial contact to installation was seamless. They coordinated with us and Pella which allowed us to get the exact doors we where looking for. Installation was very professional. Will hire them again.

The estimate was fair, compared to others we got. The crew arrived as promised and continued working several days until the job was completed. Everyone involved was courteous and professional. The job was more complicated than originally thought, but they managed to complete the work within the estimate and time. Apparently. the previous owners did not remove several old roofs and plywood on one side of the roof, creating a more extensive teardown than was expected but they managed to complete the project without problems. When we had rain water leaking into a fireplace, they immediately sent someone to inspect the work. We were assured the roof was not the source, eliminating that possibility. They were available to answer questions throughout and responded in a timely manner. W are very satisfied with their work.

I wanted an old deck demolished and a new one built. I had called several different people to give estimates and Ceccola was one of them. Chris was the only one who showed up with all the information he would need ahead of time. He knew, which I did not, that the existing deck never had a building permit nor was it to code. It was much too close to the property line. He didn’t take any measurements or really discuss what I wanted done. He was concerned with making sure I could do anything at all considering all the existing problems with the original deck. He contacted the town and it ended up that for $50.00 I could get a variance if I brought the deck one foot further away from the property line then the original one was, which I was very happy with. He came back and went over materials and measurements. His estimate was right in line with the other estimates and considering how prepared and knowledgeable he was when he came out; I wasn’t going with anyone else. They started the deck on a Monday and worked between raindrops. It took a day to demolish and the rest of the week to lay the foundation. On the following Monday the inspector came and approved the foundation and they finished it that week. It is beautiful. Exactly what I wanted and not one penny more than the price he gave me. No hidden charges. His team was great and a pleasure to work with. I would highly recommend him for your projects.

The crew was polite, courteous, and professional. They kept us informed on the progress of the job. While the price was a little higher than other contractors, we appreciated Chris' honesty, friendliness, and knowledge about the products.

We researched and talked to a few deck builders before deciding to go with Ceccola. One of the reasons we selected Ceccola as one of those we considered was because Chris Ceccola (owner) had been to our house 10-12 years ago when we were looking for replacement windows. We didn't get them from him, but I "liked the cut of his jib". He was just very forthcoming with details and answering questions. Turns out he hasn't changed. He was quick with his estimate, clearly understood what we wanted, and established the start date as soon as we said "go". This was NOT a new deck project. We already had a treated wood deck that I built about 30 years ago. The floor and top railing wood were split and splintered, but the foundation appeared to be solid. We asked that he confirm that it was, and where not, replace what wasn't (essentially joists, joist hangers, plate against the house, and posts). Turns out the foundation needed only a few new hangers and although the joists were solid, about half of them had bowed in the middle about ½", so had to be replaced to have a level deck. The new deck flooring and skirt are composites by TimberTech, which I had never heard of, but trust in Chris's judgment. The railing is white PVC with black aluminum balusters. We toyed with the idea of breaking up the stark white of the railing by leaving the support posts, which project ~38" above the deck floor, uncovered instead of covering them with a white PVC sleeve. However, the crew pointed out that (a) all of them had cracks that should be filled and (b) they would introduce a maintenance item to the deck that was otherwise maintenance free. So we allow them to be covered with the white sleeves. The quality of the work was great, as were the personalities of the guys who did the work. We are very pleased with the outcome.

We could not have been more pleased with Ceccola's services. The salesperson Scott was very helpful, making suggestions for what he thought would look good when we were rebuilding our deck and providing photos of a similar deck they had built recently. He also remained in contact with us throughout the project. Ceccola was able to schedule our project months sooner than others we had contacted; they even began the work a week or so earlier than originally planned. The crew arrived on time and went about their business in a professional manner with as little disruption as possible. There were a couple of alterations which needed to be made due to things which could not have been known in advance, but the price still was less than competitive bids we obtained. We would recommend Ceccola without reservation.

Chris Ceccola, his Office Manager Deb and the construction crew did outstanding work on these projects from the planning stages through completion! I highly recommend this family-owned business for their commitment to customer service, their expertise and industry knowledge, and the top-notch quality of work. Chris repeatedly emphasized his priority of doing the job correctly the first time. I especially appreciated their patience with my many questions and willingness to explain the details of their work. As a woman, I was always treated with respect and dignity. Chris and Deb are extremely organized and very professional. Deb was always responsive to my phone calls. Her detailed knowledge of the construction process and materials was very helpful, and her informed opinions were invaluable as I made decisions. Chris stopped by to inspect and check the progress of the work regularly though the job foreman was very capable. When the crew unexpectedly encountered rotten wood around the old bay window, the foreman stopped the work and immediately contacted Chris. He came to the house on short notice, gave instructions on how to proceed, and ordered new materials to correct the problems. The crew arrived by 7:00 am - 7:30 am and worked until at least 6:00 pm with very brief breaks. The guys worked well together and appeared to genuinely like each other. All construction debris was cleaned up daily. Chris conducted the final inspection of the work, even looking for stray nails or trash that had been overlooked. I think he found 1 nail! Regarding price, Ceccola may not be the least expensive nor will it be the most expensive quote you will receive. The quality of materials you select is a factor, and Ceccola Construction only does business with suppliers they know and trust. If you are looking for a company that operates with integrity and refuses to compromise on quality, give Ceccola Construction a call.

This was one of two contractors we contacted through Angie's List for bids on this project. There was a third that we contacted based on a personal referral. All three companies were very friendly and professional. They were equally responsive to our questions and informative about available materials, construction details, and timelines. Ceccolla's bid was very slightly the highest, but we selected them primarily because they were able to start the project at least three weeks sooner than the other contractors. We were anxious to get the job underway. We couldn't be happier with our choice! They started on the Thursday before Memorial Day doing preliminary work of removing siding and rerouting furnace, water heater, and exhaust vents that had to be moved for building code compliance. They returned bright and early the following Tuesday. By the time they left very late Wednesday afternoon the deck was finished. The concrete patio was delayed by weather, but was completed about ten days later. The job is excellent. The finished product is exactly what we'd envisioned. Their people were friendly, worked hard, and an absolute pleasure to deal with. We wouldn't hesitate to recommend Ceccolla to anyone else, and will certainly contact them again if/when another project comes up.

communication went well....took longer than they said before call to put in after estimate....overall I would use again cause workmanship was very good

About two months after a very bad hail storm, a number of "storm chasers" came through our neighborhood to give out free estimates and offer to meet with our insurance company. After three storm chasers gave very differing assessments of the damage we had incurred, we decided it was time to go with a reputable contractor with extensive experience. I feel we were fortunate to get a lead about Ceccola Construction from a friend, since it was clear that both the owner and the project manager really know their trade. Honesty is very important to us (my husband is a Boy Scout leader) and we had no interest in getting more from our insurance company than what we were entitled to. We also didn't want any less than what we were entitled to. Ceccola Construction took their time to assess our roof, soffits, aluminum siding, chimney, etc. and gave us a very detailed bid to do the work. They are an honest outfit and we hope to do business with them in the future.

Chris and his crew were great. Started early, stayed late and even worked on a Saturday. They were very polite and responsive. Job site was neat during construction. We have had many of the neighbors comment on the work they did. Will definitely contact them again for future work.

The service went pretty well. The owner was pretty reasonable as far as the deal went. He was not very experienced with insurance claims and he tried to rush through it a bit. Once we got him back on track his adjuster was very easy to deal with. His roofing was great although he sub-contracted out to painters. I was not too impressed with his dry wall finishers and the work they did. Because he is a very small business he gets very upset about the insurance adjuster not paying out on time and it kind of felt like he was taking it out on me. His professionalism was great up to that point when the checks were coming in very slow. It was a learning experience for them, as far as dealing with insurance companies go, so I understand where his frustration came from, there.

Work was completed quickly and with great attention to detail. Entire crew was friendly and professional. Completely cleaned work site after completion of the job and even removed and disposed of trash and old moldy wood that was sitting under my deck! I plan on using Ceccola Construction for any projects that come up in the future.

Once we hired Ceccola they were able to get started on the demolition right away because they had an opening in their construction schedule that allowed for a quick job. Chris and his team completed the work in a reasonable amount of time and the price was fair. Chris and his team were always diligent, capable and respectful. When things got strained at one point due to a communication problem, Chris and his team remained respectful and worked until the problem was solved to our satisfaction. The communication problem centered on the concrete pad demolition - and my husband bears part of the responsibility for the misunderstanding (my husband agrees with this). What happened was that in the middle of the job, Chris discovered that the concrete pad was much thicker than he assumed when he bid the job. And (understandably) Chris did not want to give the impression that he was raising the price in the middle of the job (to account for demo and removing a lot more concrete). Confusion ensued when Chris and my husband did not communicate directly on this issue. It became clear to us that the crew was not going to demo the footers completely, which we were not happy about because that had been our understanding in accepting the Ceccola bid. My husband then made the mistake of not reaching out to Chris directly to see what was going on. Instead, my husband communicated with Chris's office - his office is quite competent, but they had not seen the job. So by the time Chris and my husband talked and figured out the misunderstanding...things had gotten tense and I know both Chris and my husband did not want that. In the end, once we understood the depth of the concrete and why Chris needed to ask for more money than he originally bid to complete the demo of the footers with a more power jack hammer and we felt the amount fair, the job was finished and we paid Chris what he asked for. To his credit, throughout the situation Chris and his team were positive, respectful and worked hard to find a solution that was acceptable to us. Afterward my husband and Chris talked about it - and both of them agreed that they should have talked directly with each other sooner once the pad thickness and difficulty of removing it had been discovered.

Chris was extremely responsive and professional. I had spoken with at least 7 other roofing companies ahead of Ceccola and was worried about the "edge vents" they suggested as a fix for my limited attic ventilation (Fairfax homes have no soffits!). Edge vents are long slits cut about 6" from the roof edge to allow air flow and are covered with some kind of baffling flap. But, I was concerned they would leave me prone to ice dams. Chris came up with a great idea--fascia vents. This added about $2000 to my $4800 job, but was exactly what I needed. Chris also put me in touch with an Energy Service Group who ended up sealing the tops of my exterior walls so that house heat/moisture would not be sucked up into the attic. Ceccola coordinated their work with the Energy Group and I am delighted to say that all my problems appear to be solved --for a very, very competitive price. I would happily and highly recommend Ceccola Construction. Oh, and they were an extremely punctual, neat, polite, and clean-cut crew of workers. An excellent experience all around.

They did a great job. I would recommend them to anybody. They were knowledgeable and went right to work, they didn’t mess around.

Chris was very accessible to answer any questions I had, work was completed by end of day - they tore out my whole doorway and frame - installed new frame, fiberglass door with sidelites, and new storm door was very pleased with the work would definitely use this company again.

Workers reported promptly each morning between 7-7:30AM and worked all day. At the end of each day they cleaned up as if no one had been there. Three-man crew were very polite and accommodating as well as efficient. While the price was on the higher end, Chris had the most creative ideas, integrity and honesty, so it was worthwhile. My home was in great need of repairs and now it looks like a model home. I have no complaints at all, only praise for the excellent job. Would highly recommend them to anyone.

AMAZING!!!! The best experience I have ever had with working with a contractor in the 43 years I have been on this earth!!!! Professional, clean, friendly, talented, and above all A+++++ quality work!!!

We got 3 estimates and went with this company. Chris highly recommended certain brands, answered all questions / responsive, had competitive pricing, the owner was the salesperson but he knew his stuff (not just a salesperson like at a big company), and their office followed up with me to see if I had selected a company and if I had any questions. They started the work when they said they would. Michael was the lead and they had a team of 3 (including Michael) who did most of the work. For a couple of days they brought in a 2nd team of 3-4 people to get the siding done. I only saw Chris (the owner) a few times but there were no issues so I was OK with that. They were on time and worked until dinner time every day. They told me their goals for the day. They asked questions when needed, and happily answered my questions. They were polite, professional and friendly (to my kids and dog). I was there about 80% of the time but ran out occasionally and left the house open for them. I really appreciated the communication. For example, one day they needed to turn off the power. They asked when would be a good time, gave me a heads up so I could save my work on the PC, and told me when they were done. Another person/company might have just turned the power off without telling me. They did quality work. If very happy with my new house! I paid 1/3 when the product was ordered, a 1/3 when the job was halfway done, and 1/3 when complete (and I was satisfied). I would highly recommend this company to anyone.

I contacted the Company in early March about replacing three entry doors and screens with deadblots. The free estimate was completed very quickly, without the need to have both my husband and I present. Many options of door styles and materials were provided, along with a summary of Pros and Cons for each. Once we contracted for the work it was scheduled for the next week. Before the doors were ordered the crew came out to measure again to ensure that the correct materials would be available. The crew was on time and extremely professional. They were nice, worked hard and did a fantastic job! Not only did they "replace" the existing doors, they also ensured that the floors were even and properly sealed near the door, replacing some older pieces of wood with pieces matching the existing floor. The job took two and a quarter days. The site was clean and safe during the entire time. Old materials were removed for disposal. A follow up visit/inspection was done by the owner. During this time he reviewed information on the doors, the materials, and maintenance suggestions (when to paint them, how often, type of paint, how to adjust screen doors to open/close at speed we wanted, etc). I was very pleased with the experience from the initial phone call to finish and would recommend Ceccola for work at any time!

Not finished yet but everything has gone smoothly so far without any glitches.

As with our previous experience with Ceccolla we were very pleased. They provide excellent service at very fair pricing. They started the project as scheduled and worked around our vacation schedule to complete the job. They were always on time and kept us informed of their progress. We are so please with Chris and his company that we no longer solicit bids for work on our house.

Work commenced shortly after we accepted the proposal. The stairs from the second story porch going down to the backyard were taken down in order to get at the siding. Both the siding and fascia were removed from the three sides of the house to determine where the leak was and to see if any of the framing and plywood needed to be replaced. After examining the damage, it was determined that one entire wall of the Florida room needed to be demolished due to mold and insects, and some plywood on the opposite side of the porch also needed to be replaced. Old paneling and ceiling tiles in the Florida room were torn down. A new wall was framed and insulated, and sheetrock replaced the paneling on the walls and the tiles on the ceiling. The Florida room was paint-ready upon completion. The sliding doors from the Florida to the patio were replaced. New, wider steps from the porch replaced the old steps. The fascia on the sides of the house was part of the water problem as the caulk dried out and cracked and the fascia had not been properly applied. It was replaced with new fascia that prevented any further leakage between the walls of the Florida room. The screens of the porch were replaced by eight "sliding" windows that included screens. The storm door was replaced with an outside door. The new storm door will be installed when it is delivered to Ceccola Construction. The sliding doors on the porch were also replaced. The previous owner apparently built the Florida room and the screened porch himself or had a contractor who was not up to par. The walls and floor of the porch were not plumb or level. As a result, the repair job was not straight forward. The windows and door all needed to be reframed. The workmen (Mike, Miguel, and Cesar) showed up promptly each day they worked. They were professional in their demeanor, worked well together, and knew what they were doing. They needed virtually no supervision. Scott and Chris were usually present and worked on the repairs as well. We would recommend Ceccola Construction to anyone who wants work that is well done at a reasonable price and who want to work with people who can be trusted. We will use them again for any repairs or renovations--no estimates from other contractors will be required.
