Get matched with top garage pros in Lytle, TX

"It went great. Reasonable price and good quality work. Will use again."

"I am disappointed with the couple of mistakes that were made but my two cabinets are now installed and look great in my laundry room."

"We had a simple plat process where we split one property into 2. We relied on A-1 to provide the service. Not only did it take 24 months to complete (yes you read that correctly), but we had to hound the team to get it done. Some of the delays were basic. Hays County had a checklist of requirements for electronic files, it took multiple rounds to get these corrected and added to the delay. That delay, because of price inflation, has cost me more than $12,000 in additional costs for septic components. Would not recommend, not even to my ex-wife."

"Perfect. I enjoyed getting to sit in the storm shelters at their showroom to help with size selection. After signing up for the install, they connect you to an online portal to manage the contract and to update building permit number, etc. Installation was prompt and clean."

"Mike was prompt and worked feverishly to finish the job as promised. I would highly recommend him as he has a great work ethic and he explained (and followed through) on every step required to complete the job."

"David was on time and ready for the job. His work is exceptional. He is thorough, meticulous, and enthusiastic. He has a very warm and friendly demeanor. He is good at problem solving if/when challenges occur due to old structures/settings. I highly recommend David. This is the 4th time we have utilized his talents and we will look forward to many more times to work together."

"Purchased a 12x14 Tuff Shed during a great sale. We were assured that the shed would be assembled. The salesperson advised us to have our window unit ready for the construction crew. The team arrived and assembled the shed. We provided them with the window unit and indicated where it should be installed. Unfortunately, they cut a hole in the wrong location, making it impossible for the window unit to fit or operate correctly in the opening. Upon contacting Tuff Shed about the issue, they refused to address it, claiming we were responsible because we approved the cut location on the paperwork. However, all paperwork was signed prior to the shed's assembly, and the incorrect cut was made on-site during installation. Tuff Shed has declined to rectify the situation, threatening to void our warranty if we attempt to fix it ourselves. As a result, we had to hire a bonded and insured company to make the necessary repairs, incurring additional costs that should not have been our responsibility."

"Roland Garcia and his team were very professional. They provided updates as the job progressed and readily available to answer any questions."

"We hired David to complete some updates on a newly purchased home (retile, paint, update fixtures, replace deck and install new appliances). He kept reiterating it was a “very simple job, very easy” that would take 4-6 weeks. Unfortunately, that expanded into 16 weeks (yes, 4 MONTHS) of never-ending frustration. Many days there were only one or two unskilled laborers on site puttering without any guidance or supervision as David popped in only once or twice per week (and he repeatedly chastised me for stopping by my home daily and raising concerns). The job took 4 times as long as promised because the workers just weren’t able to complete things correctly the first time (and often not the second, or third attempts); they also repeatedly expressed they didn’t have tools and supplies to perform the job correctly. There were many days when no one showed up to the site. And when they did come to site, they exhibited complete disrespect for our home, leaving food and drinks spilled throughout the house (welcome rats and roaches!), dropping trash all over the yard to blow into neighbor’s yards, pouring paint down the sink drains, etc. We are still working through correcting issues ourselves 4 months after the job was “finished”. The photos show a few samples of DTS’s work: 1. We purchased Italian-made porcelain tile through Emser with rectified edges (to allow for thinner grout lines), not cheap China-made ceramic tile with inconsistent manufacture. However, DTS did not perform surface preparation prior to install and was unable to lay the tile level so sharp corners and edges catch your feet throughout the house, requiring shoes to be worn indoors now. 2. DTS insisted on sanding/sealing ½ the deck at a time and completed the second half during wet, rainy weather over our protests. That second half mildewed under the seal and the sealant is now chipping off. When contacted, David Steiner stated there was no warranty on this work as he didn’t make money on this specific portion of the $37,000+ job (even after he charged an additional $1300 to sand the deck as the original contract only itemized building and sealing it, not the needed preparation of sanding). He texted: “I can not warranty work that I did at cost…..if you want that section to be redone – you have to pay for it”. So 3 months after we paid $13,350 for a new deck this is what it looks like. 3. We used redwood for the deck, purchased through DTS from Allen and Allen at a premium price for better durability than pine or cedar. After building the deck, the installer applied white caulk (yes caulk!!) all over the wood, including over screw holes and where any two pieces of wood met. When he proposed this idea, we repeatedly told him not to do so. After caulking, he applied some kind of stain over it to try to hide it; all of the light colors in the pictures are caulk, not wood tones. Three months later, random slashes of stain are now visible everywhere as the sealant is failing. 4. Despite repeated request to please respect our house, we daily found a sink full of construction debris, paint, etc. as they poured trash and paint down the drain and into the septic system. 5. Our kitchen vent hood never worked properly after installation: it was very noisy and didn’t have any significant suction/air flow. When we opened it up, we found out why: rather than using the correct straight metal pipe for unobstructed air flow, DTS used flex conduit and just jammed up an entire roll (rather than trimming it) so the air space was almost completely occluded by yards and yards of excessive flex conduit."
