Ryan Hays Construction

On time, and if he needed to change times, he contacted us and kept us informed on the schedule, cost, breakdown, suggestions, email, text, called, amazing, and professional.

It took them one day to finish the job. Scheduling was a little bit of a challenge - by little bit I mean seven months. They were flexible in letting me choose the stain and trying to accommodate my schedule. The guy did one coat and it was hastily done and it's peeled up in several areas in the section he did, whereas the section that my ex-husband did, none of it peeled off. I left a message about that but didn't get a response. I liked Ryan but he wasn't the one who did the job.

Worked efficiently and thorough. Cleaned up.

Great!

I purchased a Groupon for pressure washing and staining the deck. After a few days of juggling schedules, Ryan was able to come out and give me a bid for the work. The square footage was more than the Groupon covered, but instead of full-price for the remainder, he let me pay the difference in what the correct-sized Groupon would have been. We discussed the work by phone & email. I provided my own stain so it would match the other woodwork in the yard. One of his crew came and did the painting. Although the quality of what he did was good, it wasn't quite what I was expecting. The painter only did one coat on the top side of the deck boards. He didn't paint the sides/ends of the boards at the edge of the deck or any of the support posts for the deck. I had received other bids for the work and all of them included the sides/ends of the edge boards and exposed supports as part of the deck painting bid. Because my conversations with Ryan were by phone, I don't have documentation that edges & supports should have been included. Also, I specified that the deck stain said it required two coats (as has been my experience with it). He assured me it would be taken care of, but only one coat was applied. Again, my experience in coordinating service with Ryan was great. The actual painting work was well done, although incomplete in my opinion. A detailed, written agreement would likely avoid the same frustration.

Ryan is one busy guy! And that's a good sign! Obviously he has a lot of business and as the old addage goes, "If you want a job done correctly, find a busy person." When I first contacted him he needed to get back to me to schedule a date and time that would work for him. After a few re-tries on my part we scheduled a three hour handyman job that consisted of painting a second story gable that was impossible to reach for my equipment. The second job was to install an exhaust fan in an under-the-house crawl space. Both jobs were done exceedingly well and well worth the charge. He was meticulous with the painting, using a brush instead of a roller and was exceptionally neat. Under the house required him to shimmy into a tight crawl space too tight for me to navigate and install an exhaust fan for drying out the crawl space. I had purchased a Groupon for $89 that would have been normally $229 and it would have been worth the complete charge! I highly recommend him and his work!

Fabulous! I even had a leak in one of the ceiling exhaust fans while Ryan was building the shelves and in pouring rain, he scurried up the ladder, replaced a vent, and saved me from having to deal with another disaster! I will definitely use him again.........nice, polite, considerate and very professional!
