Coxco General Contractors Inc

Everything went well. Communication was great and the work was excellent and timely.

I texted Coxco over the weekend and they were very responsive. John came over on Sunday and fixed the turbine on the roof and gave me an honest review of the limited hail damage to the roof and the best course of action. No pressure to buy anything. It was truly refreshing. I hope when I do need to replace my roof I can call on Coxco!

Coxco is a well-established local contractor that brought experienced teams to our project. We were very pleased with the quality of the work, including clean-up, and the regular on-site presence of our project manager. To the extent that some touch-up was required on the painting, they were very responsive. Given the recent hard rains experienced in the Dallas area, we are very happy that our house never had any leaks. Further, the drainage from our gutters is much better than before when we had problems with overflows. The work was done right the first time.

Great. On time and very professional with everything they did! It was covered by insurance.

John Cox is the best in the roofing industry. His crews were extremely professional and thorough. I will definitely use Coxco for all my future roofing needs. Highly recommend!!!

Coxco was extremely good to work with!

I can't say enough good things about this company. They were fantastic. They were up front and honest all through the whole process. Honest, great work, good prices, what else do you want?

A well run and managed project overall. We've worked with Coxco before and would continue to work with them after this project is complete. They provide quality work, attention to detail and ensure that the client is happy with the end product.

When we purchased a new Tesla we decided our existing two-car garage was not adequate to accommodate two cars with sufficient clearance for easy access along with the storage space we wanted. Our plan was to build a new attached garage over the existing driveway, effectively lengthening the existing garage. The driveway was sufficiently long to allow a 20-foot extension to the garage while preserving 20 feet of driveway to the alley. The addition would be about three feet wider than the existing garage to allow for additional side-to-side clearance for opening car doors. The contractor we had used previously for extensive home remodeling was no longer in business, so we began a search for an alternative. After contacting multiple local contractors (all from Angie's List), only two expressed interest. We prepared detailed sketches and a statement of work to reflect our (very specific) needs. We began working with both interested contractors to get quotes and a good understanding of their relative experience levels. It was soon apparent that one, although significantly more expensive based on initial quotes, was far more knowledgeable and experienced in the many details of the job. We chose Coxco Construction to do the work, and owner John Cox supervised the work on-site on an almost-daily basis. The work specified included: (1) Removal of the existing concrete driveway, to be replaced with a reinforced concrete garage slab and a new shorter but wider driveway (2) Construction of the new garage, to include insulated walls and attic space and brick siding (3) Roofing of the addition to match existing house roofing (4) Finishing of interior walls of both existing and new garage, to include texturing, painting and installation of baseboards (5) Installation of new electrical outlets and LED light fixtures (6) Installation of a new 100A electric service panel and Tesla charging unit (7) Replacement of backyard fencing, some of which was removed to make space for the addition and the wider driveway Other elements suggested by John included: (1) Construction of a temporary wall (with lockable door) replacing the removed garage door for security during construction (2) Addition of a "porta potty" on the construction site to support the various crews at work there (3) Replacement of our current, hail-damaged roof (more below). Demolition and construction spanned almost three calendar months. This was more-or-less consistent with estimates. There was very little idle time during that period, mostly for curing of concrete, waiting for city inspectors, weather problems and other routine events. Crews were available when needed, and backup crews were available if scheduling conflicts arose. In the process of bidding the job, John noticed significant hail damage to our roof. At his request, we contacted our insurance company and scheduled an adjuster to evaluate it. John worked with the adjuster to identify all damage, including damage to plywood underlayment that was not apparent from a surface inspection. Damage to window frames, fencing and garage door was also noted. After an initial rejection of most of the claim as "cosmetic damage," John provided additional supporting data, including a second expert's assessment, and the claim was approved. Thus we were able to complete the garage addition and reroof the existing house at the same time, yielding one contiguous roof over all. All roofing work (replacement and new addition) was completed in a single day with crew of about ten to avoid potential damage from expected rain storms while the attic was exposed. The garage structure included custom-built trusses manufactured off-site to support the roof and satisfy code requirements for survival in high wind conditions. The trusses were designed by a local engineering firm to assure adequate strength while preserving the low-profile roof design of the existing house. City inspections (foundation, structural, electrical) all went smoothly, with only minor issues that were quickly addressed. All inspectors were very complimentary of the quality of the work. Fencing was done using clear cedar. This is not readily available locally, and required some work on John's part to locate the materials needed. The finished fence addition perfectly matches the structure and style of the existing fence. Matching the brick of the new addition to the existing brick was a challenge, since the existing brick was discontinued many years ago. John gave us some suggestions for brick dealers and left us to make the rounds and select what we wanted. Our choice was found at a dealer John was unfamiliar with, but a quick phone call to John was all that was needed to complete the purchase and coordinate delivery of the bricks. As work neared completion, we allowed for a bit of "creeping elegance." The temporary wall that John created for security as noted above was retained and ehanced (but moved a bit) to create two areas within the now 40-foot-long garage. Thus, we have both garage and shop/storage areas. Other added touches (both initially unplanned) were a heat pump and an epoxy coating on the floor. Work is now complete, and all meets or exceeds our high standards. We are already planning our next remodeling job, and Coxco will be at the top of our list for that work.

We are very happy with Coxco. This was a big job, and required a lot of coordination and understanding. Pretty much impossible for this to go perfectly, but Coxco did very, very well. On the few small items that needed additional attention, Coxco took care of them without any fuss at all. Excellent service, highly recommended, we will use Coxco again!!

Very well. Coxco Representative Tim Guild was my contact person, and Tim is very professional and communicates well. All necessary work was completed satisfactorily.

Went well, they were very thorough and explained what to look for as well as what was done.

Excellent. Not only did they do an outstanding job, but they also have excellent customer service. Would use again.

It worked out well.

The project went well. The water damage gave me an excuse to make upgrades to my home. I also added projects to Coxco's repair list. This was the third project with Coxco and I just signed a contract to replace my roof and gutters.

It went very well. They were able to schedule a visit within a few days and followed up the day before and the day of the appointment.
Don was very thorough and explained everything he was doing and why. He also explained how the insurance process worked and what my options were in regards to my insurance company. Everyone I dealt with at Coxco were professional and helpful.
To put this into perspective, We contacted 4 other companies besides Coxco and only 2  come out to give us a bid. One company refused to return calls or answer emails after doing their bid. One gave us a bid and the others never returned our call.

John was fantastic. He was fair, on time, and his price was affordable.

Overall, I am very happy with the work that John Cox (the owner of Coxco) and his team did for our house!  We originally purchased our house for $1,237,500 back in 2007.  After John Cox completed the renovation work in June 2015, we were able to put our house on the market for $1,449,000 and got a full price offer only 8 days later.  I give a lot of credit to John for this quick sale of our house! He gave us a lot of good advice on how to update our house to make it more attractive to buyers and he and his team did good quality work.  Instead of delegating the supervision of the work to others, he personally supervised the whole renovation project.  He really cares about what he does and paid a lot of personal attention to a lot of the details involved.  For example, he did things like personally picking out the new quartz counter tops for our kitchen and new laundry room light fixture.  Compared to other contractors I have worked with he was relatively more accessible by text, email or cellphone and more responsive to my questions and requests. I appreciated how his team member Don, who was in charge of taking all the measurements, was very meticulous and careful in his estimates of costs. I like how everyone seemed to pay attention to all the details of things. Nothing in life goes perfectly, but when I alerted John to a problem he was better than other contractors I have worked with in terms of trying to fix the problem.  For example, on one or two weekends I arrived late in the evening to check on the house after the workers had left and found that exterior doors would be left wide open, lights in the house would be left on and the music from the intercom system would also be left on.  After I alerted John to this problem, he spoke with his workers and it stopped happening. I appreciated how John referred me to a local interior designer, Cheryl Mabery, to help me pick out paint colors, floor colors, and rug colors. I didn't follow all her advice, as I had my own thoughts and opinions too, but I followed most of it.  I appreciated how John just let me pay her directly and didn't charge me any mark up fees for this referral.  The insurance company gave me a total of about $250,000 in payouts.  Some of this $250,000 insurance pay out was for house contents replacement and moving expenses and was not supposed to go toward the rebuild costs, but in the end John included these other payouts in his calculation of rebuild costs.  So in the end, John got our entire payout of $250,000 plus another $100,000 from us for items and updates that were not part of the work covered by insurance (this latter amount included about $23,000 for fixing the mold problem).  In retrospect, I wanted to keep the insurance payouts for contents damage and moving expenses separate from rebuild costs and not have them all go toward the rebuild costs.  This is why I only gave a B rating for price. But I guess you get what you pay for. John was more expensive, but he does good work and really cares about doing a good job.  After I gave them the final check and signed off on the project, I later discovered that some lights were missing above the cabinets along one wall of the kitchen.  I called him about this and he sent someone to fix it without charging me anything extra.  I was really happy about that.  If I had the chance, I would definitely work with him and his team again.
