A 1 did a great job. We are already making a list of projects with them for continuing work. The crew was really friendly and very respectful of the house and our stuff. They did one of the best post-work cleanups I've had too. They had us mark with tape places where we had questions about the work. They wanted to make sure we were completely happy with the outcome. In our case, they even decided to repaint an area because they weren't happy with it. We are really pleased with the final look and their input for decisions turned out to be great guidance.

Fonda and Steve run a fantastic company, excellent communication and quality of craftsmanship. We used them 1st to build decking over our back patio and a privacy wall, to enclose our hot tub. A few months later we had them remodel our kitchen which included adding new cabinets, painting existing cabinets, countertops, backsplash, lighting and plumbing. They were always prompt, dependable, cleaned up after each day’s work and extremely easy to communicate with. My husband and I very satisfied with their work and will most definitely hire them again!

They did an excellent job, not only with the work performed, products used, etc., but were extremely timely and quoted properly. I would highly recommend this company for any work needed. After all the tornado damage, insurance process and finding resources - along with an amazing amount of stress for several months - it was a great blessing to have an honest and capable team get my home put back together. They were even gracious to add a few items at a very nominal charge.

After the next heavy rain, we noticed more water damage (it was still leaking), but they came out and took another stab at it. So far, so good. I appreciate them not fighting with me on coming back out... very professional and concern that we were happy.

Everything went extremely well. Good communication the whole time. They will be back out in about 10 days or so to lengthen 3 of the stair rails ( that was part of the disability friendly package). These people are great for all the little "handy man" projects that two old women can't do.

A1 did an excellent job! The made recommendations for approach and cost savings, made a detail bid on the work to be done and met all aspects of the work done perfectly. I am very satisfied.

His subcontractor did not perform what he was supposed to do. Steve and the sub came back out and did some more of the work. I was on a business call when they supposedly finished and could not look at the job. Several more planks needed to be replaced. I don't think Steve listens very well to the customer, nor makes recommendations. He bid on the installation of tile back splash for the kitchen and was 3x higher than other bids. I emailed him and told him that I would not recommend him and he never responded.

"[Member Name Removed] called us for an estimate on wood rot repairs on her deck. When I arrived, [Member Name Removed] and I both went over the deck together indicating which boards were rotted and needed to be replaced. She said that she had already spent a lot of money on repairs to her home, and needed to do this as economically as possible, and that she would be staining the deck herself to save money. I suggested that we use cedar lumber vs treated, so that she could stain the deck as soon as we were done. In my opinion the entire deck needed to be re decked, but keeping Carols request and budget in mind, I did exactly what she asked me to do. The next day I sent [Member Name Removed] a detailed email quote with a detailed description of the work to be done. [Member Name Removed] agreed to the quote, and I put her on the schedule. Our subcontractor completed the repairs exactly as described in the quote. The following day, [Member Name Removed] called to complain that there was more wood rot that needed to be replaced, and that there were nail heads popped up on other parts of the deck that needed to be hammered down, which neither items were on our subcontractors list to repair. She also said that she felt like she was being overcharged for the amount of work that was being done, that she had called Lowes for a quote on lumber pricing I immediately responded that we would be there the following morning to take care of any issues. I also agreed to show her the invoice for the lumber cost on the deck repairs, which were way more than she was quoted by Lowes. My guess is that it was not the same materials. We met with our subcontractor the following morning, along with extra lumber to replace the boards that she wanted replaced, that were not on the original quote , at no extra charge, in an effort to make her happy. After we finished the additional repairs, I brought [Member Name Removed] out to go over the deck with us to make sure that we did exactly what she wanted us to do, and that she agreed she was satisfied at that time. [Member Name Removed] emailed 2 weeks later, and said that she was disappointed, and would not be recommending us . I did not respond to that email, because I felt she was trying to bully us into doing additional work at no extra cost. The deck really needed to be completely re decked , but I did exactly as [Member Name Removed] requested to keep her costs down"

"Dear Mr [Member Name Removed], I looked back to see where the breakdown on communication happened. You emailed through Angies list and asked if we did this kind of work on 7-11-17. I responded 3 minutes later with yes. We don't receive phone numbers or addresses when get a message from Angles list, so the emails are how we communicate until you provide that to us. I am sorry that the response was lost on its route back to you. We strive very hard to answer all perspective clients."

We were very happy with the punctuality and responsiveness of A1. Steve emailed us a bid which broke down the areas which needed repaired giving us a price for each. Ultimately we decided to have all of the bid work done. We let them use their own judgement in rebuilding the front entryway in a manner similar to the original design. What they built was of the same style but is somewhat smaller and simpler (in a good way - fewer seams, less angled surfaces) and should be much easier to maintain. Most of the rest of the work was pretty straight forward wood rot repair adding horizontal cedar boards where the siding was rotting at the bottom. There was a fairly extensive amount of this sort of work and of course it all had to be painted afterwards. The only issue that came up was with the color of the trim around our front windows and garage. They originally matched their trim paint to a piece of trim on the house but we had wanted it matched to some paint we had leftover from the previous owners. When we pointed this out the mismatch with our expectations they were gracious about it and quickly fixed the issue. We are happy with the final product and would hire A1 again.
