Lance Melville Construction

We have used Lance a couple times, he does a good job and we would use him again.

The did a great job and were very professional. The were committed to the project and helped by working the two days after Thanksgiving as I had more things to finish before renters moved in and they did everything to make it work for me. I use a lot of contractors and they are the best I use.

They did an excellent job. I have had them work on multiple projects for me as they are always courteous, efficient and do a very good job. Will continue to hire them.

Great. Easy to work with. Great communicator. Well worth what he charges.

HoLance responded to my request when he received the message. He had been working out of state...but promptly completed my project for the association when he was available. Based on his prior work...we chose to wait for his availability to do the repairs. He is extremely conscientious in his work and makes sure we are satisfied.

Lance did an estimate for roofing a section of our house. The bid was the lowest we received. They were very accommodating as far as the start date. They came on time on the date scheduled. They tore off the old roofing, replaced flashing and roof vents, and installed ice and water barrier along the eaves, around the skylights, and up the wall under the siding to ensure against leaks. They replaced a damaged area of decking at no extra charge.
They worked carefully and did an excellent job. Our siding and plants were protected during the tear off of the old roof. The cleanup was very thorough including a magnetic sweep of the lawn to check for nails.

His roofing crew of six arrived on schedule and worked diligently installing 43 squares of shingles in two days. Lance, his brother, and the crew kept the work area neat during the installation and completed a final pickup of nails and materials once the installation was finished.

When searching for a contractor we met with Lance to discuss our needs. The wooden screen door on our porch had rotted and the type of wooden doors available were not of adequate quality so we had included a metal screen door as a replacement in the proposal. Lance told us that he could have a Cedar screen door built that would be a more desirable and less expensive choice for the porch. We choose to have the Cedar Screen door built to replace our existing door.

Lance suggested that the service door and porch door be delivered prior to installation so we could complete all painting and staining. We initially thought that only the brick mould on the screened windows would need replaced. Lance found that the rot was more extensive requiring two new window sills, exterior plywood under the sidewall shingles, and trim. He and his helper completed the additional repairs very neatly and quickly.

They removed all debris and cleaned all areas that were worked in. Both of the gentlemen were very friendly and professional, would definitely hire Lance Melville again.

Excellent service and pleasant to work with on this project. He was timely in quoting and executing the project from start to finish. I would highly recommend his services and will be calling on him again in the future as needs arise.

It went well. It doesn't look like a perfect job, but it solves the problem and it was not an easy job to do, given the space constraints.

Very well. Lance came over and gave us an estimate and was started within a few days. It only took him 2 days to do the project and we couldn't be happier.

As I said above, we highly recommend them in all ways. Highly accomplished, honest, and great to work with.

He is fantastic, but he is really busy. He is great. He is a gem. He did an excellent job. He is a super nice guy. He is easy to work with. He doesn't do any nonsense. You don't have to spend a lot of time taking about what to do; he just gets it and does it. I will use him in the future.

Lance answered call right away. I had water intrusion caused by ice dam. Very busy time for those doing snow/ice removal work. He came out on time as he said he would, and worked on roof even though snow and ice pellets falling. The work was done quickly, in order to prevent further problems to our home. The fare estimate he had given to me, was reduced further. Eric, another handyman, had recommended Lance. After having called about dozen people for help, and being overcharged, I was thankful for these handymen, and plan to call them for further work, especially this Spring.

He came and gave a good bid and then did the work about 2 weeks later, after the wood arrived. Very neat, disposed of all old materials.

Lance did a great job and made things very easy for us. He owns a roofing company but did not mind at all taking on our small roof repair and sheetrock project. He came out to inspect the problem with no trip/diagnosis charge and then returned to do the work the following Saturday morning. He was efficient, neat, and careful. We would definitely recommend him.

His only fault (and I forgive him) is that both times high on my priority list was repairing my screen door, but he was too busy doing other things to get it done properly. Hopefully, the third time I have him out will be a charm.

From the initial bid to picking the style, color, and maker of the shingles, everything went smooth. I couldn't believe they were able to finish the roof in 3 days since it was very challenging as it is a 3 story steep roof. Everything was done exactly as requested and they improvisied when they ran into issues from the original roof lines and flashings. Great Job

I called them for the first time on a Thursday afternoon and the job was done the next day. While that is probably an exception (because they are very busy) I included that information to show how responsive they were. Lance and his coworker arrived on time with all the tools necessary. Lance gave me a price and I told him to go ahead with the project. They immediately went to work and started the dis-assembly of the stairs. Then they made a list of materials that were needed and went to the local building center to pick them up. They came back in about 20 minutes with everything needed. They cut the plywood, installed it, reassembled the stairs, and cleaned up after themselves. Beginning to end the project took just over 2 hours. Price quoted: $55/hr per person with a 2hr minimum + materials. So 2 hours at $110 = $220. Price charged: $220 + $40 for materials = $260. I have already recommened Lance Melville Construction to another person.

I came home late one evening to find over 2 feet of snow drifts in my 3-car driveway, preventing me from driving into the garage. I parked on the street and started making calls. Most places were closed, some didn't service residences, some didn't service my area. Lance returned my call within the hour, came over within the hour and took care of the snow. Since then, I have always found him to be responsive, professional, and easy to work with. I recommend this company to anyone looking for solid, reliable service.

Everything went extremely well. finished on time and came back to adjust an item at my request. Very resposive

I didn't want to re-roof the entire house so I needed the new shingles to match the rest of the house. Lance came over exactly when he said he would, removed the existing shingles, installed new paper, ice guard and the new shingles we picked out. Lance was able to finish everything in one day, hauled away all the waste leaving our home spot less.
