Dan and his crew did a beautiful job on my new deck that contained multiple levels and spanned the entire length of my home. They were professional, courtious and performed quality work. During the county inspection, even the inspector was impressed with how well the deck was built. In describing the scope of work he understood my needs and was happy to accomidate. I designed the deck plans myself and he was able to help me with the fine details to ensure it was structually sound and adhered to county code. The crew was always on time early morning, and the work was done in the time expected. They also cleaned up after themselves. Swords Construction has met everyone of my expectations and I will happily reccommend them to anyone.
Description of Work: New multi-level deck.

Description of Work: Swords Construction is an amazing company. I contracted them to renovate my bathroom. It was a difficult job since the old fixtures were from the early 70's and nothing was standard size. I had a hard time finding new fixtures of good quality that would fit in the allotted space and hook up to the existing plumbing. The owner of Swords Construction, Dan Swords, took measurements for each item I wanted replaced and went with me to the store to advise me in choosing the tub and shower that would best install in my bathroom, after he had worked all day on other jobs. He made multiple trips to help me find the necessary items and even picked up the new tub and shower, as well as a toilet and accessories, to save me delivery charges from the store. He did not charge me any extra for his time, professional advice or pickup and delivery service. You just don't find that kind of generosity in business today. There were several complications once the work started, such as the floor not being level under the tub and the walls not being even, but Dan knew exactly how to make everything work and fixed each problem without raising the cost of the job. He was meticulous with every detail, taking an old worn-out bathroom and transforming it into a modern, picture perfect room. I would never have been able to choose the proper fixtures without Dan's expertise. He even disposed of the old fixtures and cleaned up the debris as he worked. I was amazed by his thoughtfulness and by the integrity he so obviously possesses. He is thoughtful and courteous to his crew as well as to his customers. I love the Christian attitude and great work ethics and generosity this company possesses. They do quality work. I would definitely use this company again.

Overall, the results were great ! The house looked like a new house after the work was completed. The shed in the backyard looks like it would withstand a tornado. I would like to post pictures to show the amazing improvements, but I cannot figure out how. If you need any type of construction work done in the Hanover, Goochland, Louisa, Caroline (Richmond metropolitan area) I would highly recommend this company.

We had gotten a good deal on some quality ceramic tiles. But as we began to look at the job in detail, we quickly realized that it was beyond our expertise. We knew Daniel from his music ministry and knew he did good work, so we had him take a look at the job. He began work and finished it in a day. He even came up with a creative use of some small ceramic tiles to make a border around the edges and to smoothly transition between teh mainn floor and the Water Closet. We were extreamly pleased with the high quality workmanship of Swords Construction. We were even more happy with how quickly the job was completed and with Daniel's honesty and positive attitude. We would love to share a picture but do not see where one can be posted.
Description of Work: We had Swords Construction finish our master bathroom remolding project. First, Daniel removed the original flooring. Then Daniel made use of the ceramic tile we had already purchased and with minimul expense made our large master bathroom luxurious. Daniel also created a decortive boarder that beautifully accented the entire bathroom.

Up on my first meet with owner Dan Swords, he showed me his many pictures on his Ipod of the past jobs that he had performed, decks, home framing, apt. framing, roof covers,screened porches,etc not only on residential but also commercial jobs. They do a lot of large jobs, so I new he could do my little job in an exceptional way. And they did an excellent and amazing job . This little project of mine went very smooth from beginning to end. I highly recommend this company to anyone. There are just no negatives to mention about Dan Swords and his team. I am very pleased and happy !
Description of Work: I had a 7' x 14' deck roof cover put over my deck to also extend a few feet from the bottom of the steps to cover some sidewalk and grill area. 6 posts had to be cemented into ground and attached to deck. The roof top with roofing shingles.

Overall, it was a fantastic job. Workers were on time, did the work in a professional manner, wonderful honest christian workers to deal with. The price was very fair and reasonable. The roof had just been replaced (by the best roofing company ever, APlus Roofing) and Swords Construction Company took GREAT pains to avoid any damage to the new roof. Since there was rotten wood on the sub deck of the roof, some squirrels found their way into the attic. The owner Daniel Swords of Swords Construction went into the attic and checked for any damage done by the squirrels. There was one board severely eaten and he replaced it on the spot. He did this on his own, at no charge, so I could have peace of mind. Daniel is the BEST EVER. They cleaned up everything after they did the siding job and were meticulous about doing a perfect job.
Description of Work: Removed rotted siding on 3 dormers and siding on the side of the house. Furnished and installed Hardy Plank siding. Painted the siding before installation and touched it up after installation. Replaced and installed facia board on front of house. Also painted the new board. l

I originally contacted Swords Construction because after a rainstorm, I noticed water seeping through the walls of my garage. As a first time homeowner, I wasn't sure how big of an issue I was facing. Daniel arrived on time and went straight to work, inspecting the interior and exterior walls of the garage. One of the things I truly appreciated was that Daniel explained what he was doing and what he was looking for throughout his visit. He didn't want to look things over and then let me know what he saw. He wanted me to understand what he was seeing and why each issue might pose problems. After we talked through options for how I should handle the water issue with the builder, as my home is still under the one year warranty, he surprised me by asking if he could take a look underneath the house and around the exterior. He wanted to make sure the garage was the only place where water was an issue. I asked him if he had the time, to walk through the entire house and let me know from a professional standpoint if he saw anything else that should be cause for concern. Daniel must have spend close to an hour and a half inspecting the house, helping me write a list of things that needed to be brought to the builder's attention, and explaining to me the things I could expect to see over time and what I should not be seeing with a newly built home. By the time he left, my feeling of panic over the water in the garage issue was gone. Instead of overwhelmed, I felt well informed and prepared to talk to the builder about what they needed to fix and how I expected them to fix each issue. I am so grateful to have come across Swords Construction!
Description of Work: I called Swords Construction to get professional advice regarding water seeping through the garage walls of my newly built house.

Description of Work: Swords construction completed two projects for me, one was replacement of my decking and the second was the installation of flooring in a family room. The quality of the decking work was excellent. They kept the yard picked up and left the job site neat and clean each day. The work was completed on time. Swords construction also removed old carpeting and installed wood laminate flooring. The installation was completed on time and within budget. I did have to call them back on a problem with the installation and they responded very quickly. I would recommend Swords construction.
