Every construction project has its issues and mine had a few. Atlantic Deck and Home Renovation not only addressed these issues but went above and beyond to make certain that I was happy. This is a great small business and I recommend them enthusiastically. They take pride in their work and work hard to make sure that their customers are fully satisfied.

For a company that states on their website "We take great pride in being able to offer you unbeatable service at competitive prices" I guess that only means if you plan on spending over 10k. I requested a quote from Atlantic Deck through AngiesList on getting a Deck built on my Townhouse. I received an email on the 31st stating they have a minimum charge of $10,000 and they wanted to make sure they were a "good fit for providing an estimate." I replied back that I didn't know how much decks would cost but I didn't want to spend more then 15k. Welp, that is pretty much where it ended. Didn't get a reply back, sent a follow up a couple days later and didn't get a reply to that email either. So be warned if you don't plan on spending a lot of money it seems Atlantic Decks has no time to bother with you.

I submitted an estimate request through their website. Received a reply from Robert that they are "scheduling new construction into July", which was fine. Then he asked for "dimensions or approximate square footage" of the patio, which I provided, along with the pictures of the area. I also specifically mentioned the material (concrete): "I'd probably want a concrete leveled with the concrete slab that is already there". Robert replied: "Thank you for the clarification – that is very helpful" and states that they schedule estimates for 3 weeks away - no problem, I made an appointment between 10-11 AM. On the date of appointment Robert emails at 9:50 AM to tell me that appointment needs to be rescheduled due “Due to the expected weather today”. It was raining in the early morning, but stopped at the time of our appointment (mind you, I had other contractors keeping appointments in the rain). He offers to provide “ballpark costs for the patio you want and compare the paver vs. Flagstone cost”. Why would I want “ballpark” estimate after waiting for him to come for 3 weeks and also after I had made it clear that I wanted all concrete patio? I replied that I wanted to have the real estimate for all-concrete patio, which would require his visit. And then Robert drops the final bomb on me: “We unfortunately do not install concrete patios – only paver or Flagstone”. I understand they have more business than they can handle now and can be picky with the jobs they take on. My project, obviously, was not big enough for them, but they knew the scope of my project and still refused to even show up for an estimate. Everyone of their competitors that I contacted at least kept their appointments and had been professional.

The owner, Chris Mallonee, was dedicated to make things right with our project. The project did not go entirely smoothly, but no construction project does. Chris stuck to the budget and made sure that the project was completed as spec'd. We had some follow-up calls after project completion, and Chris promptly responded to calls to fix things. I highly recommend Atlantic Deck as a very reputable company to work with.

Atlantic Deck did an excellent job and were very professional. They built a beautiful Trex deck with aluminum balusters and privacy lattice under the deck. I also had a storage shed where they replaced the roof. The quote and design was professionally done, and the project management was excellent with an online portal for design documents, pictures, invoices, etc. The carpentry was very well done, and overall we are pleased with the final result.

Chris and his crew did great work. The deck stairs were done professionally and we would recommend ADHRI to our clients and friends.

This is an excellent company. I was extremely impressed with the professional attention to detail. I was especially pleased with the precise delivery of building materials and removal of old deck material as the job progressed. The workmanship is first class. They are extremely easy to work with, and they went the extra mile to make sure I received the deck I wanted. I confidently give this company my highest recommendation.

Excellent experience

We decided to postpone this project.

ADHR added a beautiful new front porch to my Cape Cod style home, replaced a stoop and access stairs at the side and back doors and replaced all the exterior doors in my home. I am overwhelmed with how wonderful this all turned out as other contractors I spoke with were concerned that moving the center door would result in a unbalanced look. The people at ADHR totally understood the more traditional look I was looking for and the results are exactly what I was looking for. We had several missteps along the way with an inaccurate survey which required a new permit and lousy weather delays which extended the job by weeks at a time. They did bring the mason in on the weekends when the weather permitted just to keep us on track. Working with Taylor, the project manager was great....got regular updates from him about what was going on and he made regular site visits and coordinated with another contractor for the roof installation. Luis, the crew foreman, was a pleasure to work with, very professional and I have to say that all the crew did beautiful work. When working inside the house, they took great care to protect and clean up the surrounding area. The only caveat I feel I should mention is to make sure you have ALL requirements spelled out in the contract as they WILL charge the $250 fee for any change orders (which is clearly stated in the contract) even for a minor addition.

They did not respond to my request for a proposal.

Atlantic Deck just recently completed the construction of our deck and screened in porch. We were extremely satisfied with the entire interaction from this very professional company. We had bids from 3 different companies and choose Atlantic because of their responsiveness, professionalism and competitive pricing. They were not the cheapest, but I am very happy we choose Atlantic. The communication was proactive, the contract was simple and followed. The crews were always on time and very nice to work with. The company uses the highest quality lumber and supplies and the craftsmanship of the work can not be beat. Our project manager visited the job almost every day and was always concerned about my observations and took every question I asked seriously. They were able to finish the project ahead of schedule due to good weather. The entire process was outstanding. I went into their Leesburg office to make the last payment because I wanted to personally thank them for the excellent experience. I will use this company again and recommend to family and friends.

Very happy customer!!! Wonderful service, fabulous work with quality materials! Work was quickly accomplished despite several days of foul weather. Workers were punctual and professional. Ali and the office staff were responsive answering all of my questions. Would highly recommend them for anyone needing a deck or patio!

The construction of the deck and porch went very well. However we decided to use pressure treated lumber for the deck in stead of composite floor boards. Chris had us sign a waiver that using pressure treated lumber was not the preferred product. That it would requiring sealing and staining regularly. They included in the contract that pressure treated wood would eventually crack. They did not put a time limit on any warranty of the pressure treated wood. My experience with a deck built for us at another home with quality pressure treated lumber did not split, warp or require replacing in the 12 years I lived there. I felt that Atlantic Deck would use the most preferred treated decking and build the deck with quality wood floor boards that would not need to be replaced in four years. However Atlantic Deck used inexpensive pressure treated lumber for the deck floor boards. Within 4 years the floor boards and railings have split and are warped. The boards will need to be replaced by this Fall.They did not use quality #2 prime or ground contact pressure treated boards with a thickness that would not warp or crack readily.I doubt the boards would have met the new ICC standards. Cedar boards would have been more appropriate for a quality deck builder. The price of composite decking was $7,500 higher and not affordable. . I have tried to contact Atlantic Deck. I have sent emails and text messages with pictures of the deck boards and railings. THEY HAVE TO NOT RESPONDED AT ALL. They should at least come and see the deck. They should address that the deck has cracked and warped in a very short period of time. . Chris and Zack have been very unprofessional when it comes to addressing any problems or warranties on the decks they have built

They were professional.

Let me first admit that I can be difficult when I want things the way I want them. With that said, they were very understanding and made sure that things were done well. The finished product is gorgeous. They worked within my timeframe and within my budget and I am thrilled with the end result.

.

They did a great job fairly quickly for a fair price. We definitely recommend them.

My new deck and porch are beautiful! Tom and Ben (the crew) did a great job. The tear down of the old deck was done quickly, cleaned up, and hauled away. They were meticulous in building the new deck and porch, and the end result is fabulous. Arran, the project manager, was very responsive to my questions, and progress was posted each day on their website. I could not be happier with the results and would not hesitate to contact Atlantic Deck for any future renovations.

They were very responsive and direct with the pricing. We had a couple other estimates from larger companies which were grossly overpriced. Atlantic Deck gave us a rough estimate over the phone based on square footage and showed up the same week to see the project up close. They took less than a half hour and the official estimate matched the quote given over the phone. After patiently assisting us working with the county to get a survey and permit they showed up and promptly finished the project in less than a week. They use Buildertrend which allows you to follow along with the project online and view pictures as well as store related plans, contracts and permits. We would highly recommend working with Atlantic Deck and Home Renovation. They were top notch.

went great and turned out beautiful

We had a new full-deck installed in July 2016 and were very pleased with the high quality of work and professional service. I called several contractors for price quotes and was impressed by the quick response of Atlantic Deck for an initial visit and assessment, providing a written quote at the end of the first visit, and the email communication with our project manager, Arran Collins. After receiving the platt for our townhouse property boundary, which was needed to verify the distance needed for the outward extension of our back fence, Arran took care of application paperwork for permits from Fairfax County, and emailed me to communicate when the electrician was available to install a new outside outlet and the demolition of the old half-deck would begin. The supervisor of the day laborers worked tirelessly in the heat and humidity of mid-July, and did an outstanding job of removing the old half-deck quickly, setting up the concrete pillars, and constructing the new deck. Overall, it was worth the $8,000 I paid for the entire project because of the clear email communication and professionalism of this organization. Based on the quality of work, I would strongly recommend Atlantic Deck to others. Although you might save up to 25% of the total cost if you negotiate directly with a supervisor of day laborers, you really need to know what you are doing, or trust the person (unless you are willing to take the risk of poor quality work). We liked them so much that I paid $650 to have a “deck-staining” contract with a sub-contractor recommended by Arran in September 2016. He did a great job as well.

From start to finish everything was great. There is no question that they are a well managed company, they have some very nice people and take care of their customers. We plan to use them for additional work and will recommend them to family and friends. Specifics concerning our job - Sales and Design - handled by Kris - Atlantic was one of four companies we talked to. His solution and related proposal made the most sense. In addition the price was reasonable and the overall "value" (in our mind) was the best. AT the start of the project Kris told me that we would most probably have to wait a while .... perhaps as long as two or three months and that they may not be able to start until perhaps as late as August (they were extremely busy - high demand). We were ok with that as long as the job got done right. The fact is that they were able to get our job started before that, so that was great. The job took a little over two weeks to do (estimate was about three weeks - given the HOT weather I don't know how they made the schedule). Kris visited the site at least four times and did a final walk through with me. Project Management - Atlantic assigns a project manager to their jobs and we got Aron. From day one through completion of the job, Aron came by each day to monitor progress. He always gave me a clear picture of what was about to be done and asked if I had any questions. He kept me informed via daily visits, emails and even pictures. Bottom line - He was very active and made sure the with site project leader Luis was on target. Luis and his crew - all of the above is nice but if you don't have a good building crew it doesn't matter. We'll Luis and his crew did a fantastic job - I should mention that we had a number of days that it was about 100 degrees and they kept working - unreal - Very nice people and they know what they are doing.

I could not have asked for a better experience from estimate to final completion. Estimator was fair (I compared with 3 other top rated contractors from Angie's) and patient with me as I had him run a multitude of iterations and alterations as we zeroed in on what we wanted and what we were willing to pay for.

We started the process in November of plan generation, HOA approval and building permits. Construction started in mid-January.  Only delays from then on were weather related.

Arran was our project manager, and he and his team are consummate professionals. Just a pleasure to work with, particularly his lead carpenter Luis.  It was clear from start to finish that they take pride in their work and ensuring the customer is satisfied. Any issues I had were always addressed promptly.  Communication with the PM is efficient through their project management app Builder Trend.  The project is documented daily on there including project pictures. Project payments and balance due are tracked as well as change orders.  Change orders are approved by the customer on the app.  Solid tool.

i highly recommend Atlantic for a new deck and/or porch.  They know what they are doing.
