"Summary:   Chris, (owner?)  of  Atlantic Deck Co. seemed to be interested in a simple "in-and-out" cookie cutter job, and didn't appear to have an interest in working on a custom design specification that has attention to detail in the design and specification phase.   I *think* that he is quite busy (was told that he had up to 2 months lead time before work could begin on a new contract).  That is great, but perhaps he has enough work to be choosy about which jobs to accept and which ones to turn away? Story from start to finish: I contacted Atlantic Deck Co via Angie's List in order to discuss with the contractor some DECK, FENCE, yard-walkway, GAZEBO, and BASEMENT work that my wife and I are considering doing at our home.  Chris from Atlantic Deck responded quickly and set up an appointment to meet us at our home to discuss the work and get details for an estimate of the costs.   Zeth showed up on time and with a photo album of work they have done in the past, material samples, and product line brochures.  We spoke with Zeth for about 2 hours while walking around the house and discussing our ideas.  We also provided Zeth with an itemized list of home improvements which he said Atlantic Deck CO. could help with all but one item.  Zeth spent an additional hour with us at hour home drawing an overhead diagram of the Deck outline, box step and lower Deck-like patio.  Zeth took notes and measurements and talked about ideas/options and concerns. During this in person meeting we had with Zeth he mentioned that based on the square footage an *estimate* for ONLY the deck surface itself would be about $30K.  At that time I had mentioned to him that I expected the cost to be in the 5 figure range, but to be closer to 20K than 30K  (referring to the *SAME* scope of work, namely the DECK SURFACE ONLY).  I also mentioned that we may not be able to all of the improvements this year, (considering the GAZEBO, and the BASEMENT work)  but that we could decide on precisely which items may need to be put off once we got an idea of the prices for all the line items.  Zeth then left us with the product brochures and said he would get back to us the following week with an estimate. Based on this first meeting, my wife and I were very pleased with our experience with Zeth and were quite confident that Atlantic Deck Co. was going to meet all our expectations. One week later we received an e-mail from Zeth, it contained 2 quite simple overhead drawings which were more precise, and neat than the ones he penciled in at our home, but were basically the same thing, also included was a spreadsheet with line item price quotes for only about one-third the items we had discussed and which had been given in writing and notated as we walked around the house.   I replied back to the e-mail asking for the quotes for the missing items and also asking for side-on (instead of "overhead") drawings of the design with respect to 3 specific items which could not be visualized in the overhead drawing and would be needed in order to agree upon the work to be done. I received an e-mail back almost immediately from Chris saying that Atlantic Deck doesn't provide anything but a simple overhead drawing of things with a "FREE quote" and that there was no sense in quoting things that were a few years out since the prices would be invalid in the future anyway. I replied stating that I was asking for drawings related to the determination by the customer (me) of wether what was being quoted and the price of those items was indeed what we envisioned would be delivered.  And that we wouldn't be able to *know* what would need to be done in the future and what could be done now unless we had an idea of what the prices for the items were.   I got an e-mail back almost instantly, again stating that 3-d drawings (which I had never asked for) were out of the question. And that we had been quoted more items than our budget limit.  (which I had never told them?)  And that Atlantic Deck didn't wish to provide work product (drawings) that could be used to get quotes from alternative contractors. Well... I never told Atlantic Deck what my budget was, and I never asked for any 3-D drawings.  I just wanted to know that when we agree to a price for an item that *IS* vertical as well as horizontal and deep, that the item's price as agreed upon is in fact VERTICAL and fits in with the roof-line and window-lines of the house (can't see that in an overhead only drawing). Zeth appeared to be a very smart, quick and confidence inspiring individual.  Chris is by letter and word very polite.  However to my ear, the tone of Chris's message is rather brusque.  As I mentioned before, I get the impression that he is busy enough that he can cherry-pick easy jobs and let the more complex ones slip by. It reminds me of that old Henry Ford quote about.  --You can have it any color you want, as long as you want black."

"I eventually received a call back from all five companies and Resurrection Builder was the only one willing to come out to give an estimate for the repair. All the other companies told me they were only doing new builds and not interested in doing repairs. Ryan asked I send him some photos to give him a better idea of what I was talking about, which I did, and he came out the next day to look for himself. Now, I’m a pretty handy guy and know my way around construction, but this was a little much for my one man shop. Ryan told me to give him a couple of days for an estimate; I was figuring it would be about $5,000. The next day he sent me an e-mail with his estimate, which was just under the $5K I was anticipating. I was very impressed with his professionalism and his responsiveness and risked not having other estimates based on the reliability I had seen thus far (and it was proving difficult to get other estimates). He gave me a 5% discount for being an Angie’s List member and we agreed on a start date. The start date had to be pushed a few times based on weather, totally understandable. Ryan kept me informed the entire time and I never had to guess if he as coming or not. When the weather cleared I was traveling for work. No problem, Ryan and his crew went to work and completed the entire project in one day, he had planned for two. He sent me photos of the work and it looked excellent. I came home to take a closer look and the workmanship was spot on. We had dinner in the gazebo two nights ago, and I didn’t have to worry about the thing collapsing. Ryan and Resurrection Builders will be my first, and likely only, call when I need something done. His professionalism, integrity, customer service, communication, and reliability, were all way above par. I am exceptionally happy with the work they did and the manner in which they did it. I have a few other renovation projects that I don’t have the time or the tools for and will definitely be calling Resurrection Builders. I highly recommend you contact them."
