"I couldn't be happier with the new deck Steve and Orme Construction built for me. From start to finish, Steve made the entire process incredibly easy and stress-free. He was transparent and communicative every step of the way. The quality of the work is outstanding. I've never seen better craftsmanship, and the attention to detail exceeded all of my expectations. The finished deck looks amazing! If you're looking for a contractor who takes pride in his work, I highly recommend Steve and Orme Construction."
"Geraldo and his crew were extremely efficient fast and did great work. We truly appreciated them coming up from Eugene to assist us here in Salem. They were great to work with and would definitely hire them again, No questions asked"
"Truly one of the most professional and hard-working contractors I have seen. They have been very thorough with the job, the preparation to paint on our old house that has been needing a new coat of paint for a long time has been extensive and most certainly not haphazard. There are so many different places where the wood has rotted out and they continue to take that all out and replace where needed like a professional job should be done. I have seen many contractors brush these types of things over due to the extra amount of work it takes, but that is not these guys. This company will make sure a job is done right! On a personal note, I also have a baby I need to put down for a nap each day, and they have been so understanding to work on the other side of the house and keep quiet until my baby wakes up. HUGE thank you to this company and their skill, professionalism, and positive attitudes."
"I never contacted the provider or used this service in anyway. I have to write this review so that the request to write this review stops popping up. The rating is bogus as it is required to be able to submit. "

"They did a good job. She had to submit like a photo but my daughter had them work on the central are of the loft. The deal was for one room. She got a lot of good ideal from her and it was worth it for her. They were professional and I did not hear anything negative."
"I changed my mind decided I needed to keep the money in the bank rather than to spend it on materials for the deck. But Jeff was excellent, and basically agreed to do everything I want it done. I just decided this morning I can't afford to have it done."
