Gus & Sons Home Services

The whole project--from estimation through completion--went really well. We have a rowhouse, and we got fencing for both sides of our rear driveway and a roll-up garage door. They were able to deal with two large trees on either side that the fence had to be custom cut / fitted around and the result looks really good. We had one small issue where the final state of some cement they had to break up on the neighbor's side was making our neighbor unhappy, and when I emailed Gus about it he immediately emailed back and they came back to fix it later and it looks great. There are always going to be small issues like that on a big project, and Gus's responsiveness was outstanding.

Exceptionally fast and professional. The fence is beautiful!

We've hired several home-improvement contractors recently and Gus & Sons has been the best! I needed most of my deck removed, and the stairs rebuilt. I wanted somebody who was willing to re-use the existing materials as much as possible. Other contractors refused because it was too much effort, finding it easier to buy all-new materials and start from scratch. But Gus & Sons sent a very efficient surveyor for a quote, who was very knowledgeable and professional and took all the measurements, and immediately impressed me. They began work shortly after (in the hot summer heat!) and quickly and efficiently dismantled the old deck and carefully rebuilt parts of it. They even got a piece of white cladding for the house when a piece of the underside was exposed by the removed deck. 10/10 job, I couldn't be happier.

Poorly. When the work was originally done, I gave Gus a five star rating. One of the stones pulled away from the framework. You know when you are working with a high quality company by the way it addresses a problem. After rescheduling twice and never letting me know why his crew would not come on those days, Gus sends Monsoor whose English skills are only worse that his workmanship. He glued the flagstone then vaguely rubbed a bit of concrete where the crack that initiated the break away. It certainly doesn't have a finished look and remains wide open to the elements so that I can look forward to another separation by the flagstone once the water goes behind the stone. Anyone of any caliber would recognize the shoddiness of the work. I am taking the time to revise my past ratings of Gus because his lack of professionalism and skill only warrant a one star. Even his crew says that Gus shows no respect for his clients. He does not deserve to be on Angie's Super Service List. It speaks poorly of Angie's List to have standards so low.

Gus did a fantastic job replacing my old, broken fence with a new, taller fence. They did the work on time & it looks great. I asked them to change the latch on the gate a couple of days after installation, and they came the next day to do it at no additional cost. I would hire them again anytime.

Work was well done but communication and scheduling were issues.

I had an appointment scheduled, Within a a 2-hour timeframe,for an initial visit. Gus did not show up. Several hours after the scheduled appointment time, I received a call from his office staff, apologizing, and explaining that Gus had not come because of a family emergency. I accepted the apology and their offer to reschedule the visit for the same time period on then following day. Shockingly, no one came on the second day either, and, again, I was not notified! I have no idea if there was, in fact, an ongoing family emergency, but even if there was an emergency, I should have been notified that no one was coming. As a result, I wasted my time not once, but twice.

Professional . The work was handled expeditiously and they actually found the problem was left there by the original builders cutting corners and not securing the flashing properly. It was corrected properly.

Extremely well So well that i turned to gus for addtl assistance

Everything Gus and his team did they did to an extraordinary quality, which is not something I can say about many other people in any field. Following careful discussion & photograph, taking, and quite competitive and fair pricing, Gus will usually do a superior job to the one I was asking for or expecting, w. better materials, excellent workmanship & more than easy communication. And concientious clean-up always. One example: I had to replace an old but attractive wood pourous fence. Gus managed to save parts of the old fence and artistically mix them w. necessary new pieces; it could not have been architected more beautifully. I recommend Gus & Sons, & Edgar his foreman, without reservation, after several months of varied high quality work on my large home. I don't think they're able to do work of an incomplete, uncareful or unthoughtful manner. Highest Recommendation.
