Hire this guy. He knows what he is doing. I never liked the repair the previous owner did 20 years ago, so I called Allan for help. He sistered 6 joists and fully replaced another 8 joists, and replaced the patio door that was getting harder and harder to open. Now the floor is solid, the door opens and closes perfectly, and everything is better than it was. Thank you!

"Good Evening Mr. [Member Name Removed], I would like to take this opportunity to extend to you our sincere apology for not contacting you to discuss your home project. However, you reached out to us on 10/1/19 and responded with a negative review in less than 12 hours. We were unable to respond to you as quick as we would have liked to but due to high volume of calls at times we sometimes fall short in our response time and we unfortunately have been known to overlook a potential customer at times. To you and other potential customer’s we will strive to do better. We wish you the best on your home project. Allen Rasnake GC"

Damage due to overflowing gutter was extensive. Removal of cedar siding revealed rotting 2x4's, throughout entire wall, plus a small portion of roof, two floor joists, one roof 2x10, and portions of the roof and floor of the Florida room. Allen and his crew of 3 worked M-F of one week and 2.5 days of following week to remove all rotted wood (including drywall) and rebuild the walls, and appropriate parts of floor/ceiling. Crew did a particularly good job of saving/removing two Pella windows that were not damaged and reinstalling them as good as new. Crew was punctual and on the job by 8:30 each morning and working to around 5 pm with about a 50 minute lunch break each day. Quality of the work was excellent. I was pleased enough with the quality and efficiency of their work that I added two smaller jobs I had been wanting to get done under the crawl space of my house that they were able to do one day when it rained. (replacing some concrete block and adding some support beams) I also had them install two new doors due to some rotting wood on the door jambs. Quality and Efficiency of these add on jobs was also excellent. I would definitely use Allen and his crew again

I was impressed from the first phone call!! Mr Rasnake was friendly and offered to come out for my free consultation the day after my initial contact. He then made my appointment, after giving me a reasonable quote, the following day. He is very professional, kind, knowledgeable, and friendly. I appreciate all he did. He was very thorough and explained if we had any questions. You can tell he takes pride in his work. I would definitely hire him again and trust any referral from him. 1000% satisfied.

It went OK. He brought 3 guys to do the 2 small jobs and charged me $800 plus materials. I had to sand and paint the drywall patch myself because they were only here for 6 hours.

We were in the midst of a horrible dispute with ORKIN who was responsible for seeing that the termites did not damage our house

so we did not get to spend much time with Mr. Rasnake and I cannot remember so much about the relationship we had with him.  I just remember being very impressed with the manner in which he was able to replace sills.

Everything went smoothly. Allen showed up on time for both the initial inspection and the actual work day. Everything was constructed well and according to plan. I'll use him next time I need a handyman. One note: he didn't provide a hard price proposal up front, rather he gave an estimate, and then informed me about the final price after the work was completed. The final price was marginally higher than the initial estimate, so there is some uncertainty about pricing but perhaps this could work in benefit of either party depending on whether the work goes smoothly or has complications.

I requested bids from eight contractors (most on Angies List.)  Two never responded.  Of all the bidders, Allen was the most knowledgeable and thorough.  He actually returned twice for additional measurements and analysis.  He also contacted the county about what remedies were allowed as the original joists were engineered items (plywood and 2x3s formed to an I-Beam.)  The strongest and most economical solution was to remove the engineered joists and replace them with treated 2x12s.  He also changed the joist spacing from 24" to 16".
The crew of three showed up on time and worked hard.  They met the time estimate and were right on budget.  The crew has been working together so long that they automatically knew what to do and when another member needed help.  All of the work was done accurately.  The crew was courteous and thorough in making sure our disruption was kept to a minimum.  The finishing work around the door (inside and out) was clean and undetectable when complete.

In retrospect I realized that Allen was not only the most thorough of the bidders, he was the only one that really knew how to do the job right.  My guess was had I chosen another bidder, I would have encountered an overrun since there was more to the job than most envisioned.  Also, two of the bidders proposed a solution that would not have passed county code.

I can't say enough good things about this contractor.  It was a pleasant surprise compared to some of my past experiences.

First time on Angie's List and first company I called from the list. I spoke to female on Friday who took my information: punch down list and phone numbers. She stated they usually don't do estimates over weekends but that I would hear something on Monday. She even gave me a number he would most likely call from. It is now Tuesday afternoon. I would have preferred to have been told just too busy. Bad taste in mouth for site and for this company. Props for the professionalism when I called, major fail for not following through.

Allen and his crew arrived early in the day and were able to finish everything in one day. He repaired the front steps to make them level again, and replaced damaged and rotten boards in the deck.  Allen explained how he planned to make the repairs and the job was completed with professionalism. He also gave us a few tips about how to complete some small repairs on our own. 
We found Allen and his crew to be personable and reliable. We would definitely use his services again.

Allen and team (his brothers) were great. They arrived promptly each day and worked hard. They kept me informed of what was being done. They are very professional and trustworthy. They do not cut corners and treat the property as if it were their own. If you are looking for quality workmanship and a dependable work crew- these are your guys.
