From the start, Eric was very pleasant to work with, accommodating to our schedules and with timely communication, quotes and schedules for construction. While we were still in the design phase for our deck, he coordinated a visit for us at another recent customer to give us a feel for his work hands-on.
Once work began, Eric and his assistant, wasted no time digging into the project and getting things rolling. He has a great personality, easily explains what's going on, when things should be done and is honestly fun to have around the house. He was working on our deck while our kids were home for the summer and there was never a moment where we felt concerned about his presence; our kids even made him lunch/snacks some days.
The quality of workmanship can only be described as superb. My wife and I have a very strict attention to detail and are often frustrated by the quality of work supposed "high-end / premium" contractors offer. Eric has exceptional attention to detail and delivers fantastic work. We don't have any complaints from a construction, detail, joinery, stability, design, material or anything perspective. Everything is exactly as we hoped it would be. His pricing may seem above average, he actually *IS* the premium contractor you want working on your home and you get the quality of work you expect.
Finally, we started this project to make our deck better. What Eric delivered was an extension of our home that we spend every night on just as a family or entertaining friends, or relaxing while reading a book. He made a comfortable space on the outside of the house that we appreciate as much as everything on the inside.
After the first appointment, Eric came back to present roughed-out design options. After much discussion and alternatives, we picked his recommended approach and he then he went to develop detailed drawings and specs.
The first thing that happened is that we had a furnace vent that was in a position which would require slight alterations to the design. Eric is very particular and didn't want to see the design compromised, so he paid for a plumber to move the internal venting so it would not affect the design we had agreed upon.
The punctuality and communication regarding schedule and actual start was impeccable. Another glitch developed when the supplier of the material shorted the order by two pieces. Eric did not want that to affect the schedule or our impressions of work to date, so he personally drove to Kansas City and back to pick up the shorted pieces rather than have us wait for 3 or more weeks for supplier to deliver.
Overall, the craftsmanship was excellent. Eric was onsite every day of the build; his apprentice, Scott, was there as well. They cleaned up every day and were done ahead of schedule. The last thing I want to say is that both Eric and Scott are wonderful people. They were a pleasure to talk with every day. I highly recommend Eric Mortenson Construction.
Eric was great about planning ahead for the future - we plan to put a rain shield below the deck and pour a concrete patio in the future. He kept all of this in mind as he was designing the layout and where the stairs would end now to accommodate the height of the patio later.
Eric and Scott always maintained a very clean job site and picked up each day. It never felt like we had a large construction project keeping us from enjoying our house and our yard.
Overall, my wife and I couldn't be more pleased with the final product - high quality, beautiful, and built to last! And Eric could not be a nicer person. It was a pleasure to do business with someone who cares so much about the quality of his work.
The whole process from start to finish was smooth and I did not have to worry about anything. Eric treated this deck like it was his own. I highly recommend him to anyone that wants a quality deck that will look aesthetically awesome and be functional for years to come.
