The Hands Down Construction Team did a great job on my fence and gate. They did everything we requested and we're so responsive. Great craftsmanship and great customer service. Hire them, you won't be disappointed!

First off, Jeff has not honored his contractual agreement to warranty his own work. He has left a fraudulent review of his work done for Kevin M. in Eatonton Ga, of which Kevin M. did NOT leave a five star review. It is quite the opposite. Since Kevin M. did NOT leave the review on this site, it could possibly mean that ALL THE REVIEWS ARE FRAUDULENT that are left on this site. I DO NOT RECOMMEND JEFF CANTRELL OF CANTRELL CONSDTRUCTION LLC OR HANDS DOWN CONSTRUCTION OR WHATEVER NAME HIS COMPANY IS CURRENTLY UNDER. The work done was SHODDY and UNPROFESSIONAL. He has used the WRONG FASTENERS (trim nails, regular nails without glue, no wood screws) to replace deck boards and used YELLOW WOOD, which will fail in less than 10 years. Deck boards are popping up from improper fastening, pickets on railing are falling off from the use of interior trim nails, there are gaps between deck boards, crooked/bowed pickets from selecting improper wood pieces, loose railing. He only wanted to use ONE coat of paint for the house and deck, of which I made him do TWO. He was supposed to remove rotten boards before replacing siding, but placed the siding ON TOP OF ROTTEN WOOD. He was supposed to replace ALL ROTTEN WOOD on the window trim, but CAULKED OVER THE ROTTEN WOOD THEN PAINTED IT. HIS WORK IS TERRIBLE!!! To top it off, he was called TWICE - Once in August by myself and Once by Kevin in September and he said he would return the next week (each time) to fix everything to BOTH OF US, BUT HAS NOT TO THIS DAY OCTOBER 14, 2024. It has come down to filing a LAWSUIT to recover LACK OF HONORING HIS CONTRACTUAL AGREEMENT. DO NOT USE THIS COMPANY!!!!!

This company company is reliable and trustworthy. They put their contracts together and notify you if something needs to be modified. They have completed two projects for my husband and I and are currently working on a third. All work comes with a guarantee. Highly recommend.

I would hire these guys again. They were true to their estimate, notifying us any time there were extra costs. They came when they said they would, were respectful of our pets and property and removed all debris as promised. All around good guys.

Great service. I appreciate all of the communication throughout the job and all of the work that was accomplished. I needed the floor supported in my bathroom, a beam replaced over my porch, a handrail installed on the back deck, a door latch repair, and a slab poured to level my ac unit. The whole crew came and they were able to knock it out in a day! They even added additional supports under the floor in the living room that we hadnâ t discussed during the initial visit. I appreciate the service, the honesty, and the communication. I will definitely be working with Cantrell Construction for my future projects!
