"Mark and his crew were terrific. Professional all the way. Pleasure working with them. Will use them again."

"Was very responsive and did an excellent job."

"It went exceptionally well! Hivenx Basement Finishing Co. delivered exactly what I was hoping for—and more. They worked within my budget without cutting corners, and the quality of the work was outstanding. I especially appreciated how flexible they were when I wanted to make custom additions during the process. The entire experience was smooth, well-organized, and stress-free, and the finished basement exceeded my expectations. I couldn’t be happier with the results and highly recommend Hivex for anyone looking to transform their basement."

"My deck replacement project was a guinea pig of HD exterior’s non-validated new crew (Owner admitted that he hired a new carpenter crew). This is a serious quality control issue. The estimated price was median based on few quotes. The actual build started on 9/21 and ended on 10/17 due to multiple issues. It seems like HD exterior is “busy” enough that they are no longer caring about their reputation as you see from older reviews. It was acceptable that current pandemic caused a broken communication between employees within company. However, I captured multiple typos and errors during the documentation and permitting stage (e.g. HOA). During the construction stage, I highly recommend to watch and appeal the daily progress to ensure the quality work, or they will miss something or conceal what they made a mistake. Until I ask a question, I didn’t received any explanation about entire actual build process. After their “proposed completion” on 10/5/20, there was “no final walkthrough with the company staff” on over $14k project. I found 20+ error and issue points (e.g. missing caps, misalignment, non-secured post, and more), but just received finance approval signature request over email and I recognized my deck was completed. Simply, HD exterior crew ran away. These crews are trespassed my backyard without checking in and randomly visited without notice (I thought it is a normal process, but it was not!). Finally, the majority of issues are resolved after direct communication with the owner of this company. If you are looking for a professional detailed work, this is not a right company who left tons of construction debris, screws and nails in my backyard (doesn’t understand the meaning of cleaning for their work).The crew was not careful with handling materials that I’m still seeing popped out nails, screws, cracks, and temporarily covered holes on lumbers and materials due to their mistake. “Necessary post work for owner after the construction” – I had to wash gravel yard and filtered all debris from it. Used shop vac to clean up composite debris. Filled sunken holes around posts and removed all abandoned dirt. Overall, I have a deck that reflected my requested design, but having doubt on “how long it will last” now."

"From initial design meeting to project completion Thomas Custom Builders kept promises, delivered outstanding work on time and on budget and exceeded our expectations in every way. Their on site team did everything they could to keep the work place clean and tidy so as disrupt our home life as little as possible. Team leadership kept us informed and made sure our questions were answered promptly. They are excellent tradesmen with exceptional skills. I’d give them 10 stars if I could."

"DO NOT use this company. I went through Lowes to have a composite deck built. Working with them was an absolute nightmare. It took them 3 months to even START the job. I discovered the reason for the delay is because when they filed the permit (which took them 6 weeks to do), the contractor's license was expired. It then took them another 5 weeks to update their license in order to get the permit. They ordered and installed a completely differently railing style than what was on the contract/design, then blamed me for the mistake. Rather than ordering a new product, they cut the existing one to make it work. I am now 9 months post project, and the railing has warped, the deck is sloped, and the overall quality is horrible. Worst of all, turns out they NEVER GOT IT INSPECTED! I learned that Lowes had to fire them due to MULTIPLE issues with the company. I am thankful I have Lowes to help rectify the issues, but if i didn't, I would be pursuing legal action against them!"

"We just had the original kitchen in our 1968 house gutted and renewed by Vienna Prime Custom Kitchen & Bath (Prime Custom). BLUF: We highly recommend you consider them in your due diligence efforts to find a reliable & quality K&B contractor. Good internet reviews were a significant factor in selecting potential bidders for the refurbishment of our kitchen and two full bathrooms; that’s why we are submitting this robust positive feedback. In fact we are putting our money where our mouth is by awarding the refurbishment of our two main bathrooms to Prime Custom. These two combined projects are more costly than the kitchen was. Our procurement strategy was to hold back the bathrooms until they proved themselves with the kitchen. They came through in spades. Our kitchen journey from planning, contracting, detailed design, execution and final delivery was by no means a cakewalk but Prime Custom was an outstanding partner and delivered a quality product. We trust them! Believe me, we were a bigger “PitA” than any customer under the sun but Prime Custom Prime was collectively patient, understanding, informative and most importantly tolerant of their sometimes-antsy interior design challenged clueless customer. Their team, including an involved owner, consisted of Filiz the designer (PC Vienna), Nick the PM (PC Arlington), and several company employed skilled tradesmen in all disciplines, including the après project cleaning crew that were “the Best”. Even with a professional and organized contractor team doing quality work, the vagaries of ripping out and replacing a kitchen is a taxing psychological rollercoaster. Despite a detailed Statement of Work (SoW), there were lots of moving parts with so many big and small decisions throughout the project. Prime Custom did a masterful job “herding cats”. The project was 95% complete in three weeks and we were able to reclaim our new beautifulyl retooled kitchen by the middle of the fourth week. We did our homework. We developed three pages of bulletized line items, one for each room in our SoW. After interviewing a dozen K&B contractors including onsite visits and receiving half a dozen bids on our very comprehensive SoW, we culled the list down to three potential providers. Prime Custom matched the low bid for the kitchen with one contractor and the two bathrooms of another. We decided to go with Prime Custom with the hope of their doing all three rooms after they proved their worth on the kitchen. Our strategy has worked so far. We will update our review after Prime Custom completes the two bathrooms. It pays to be anal in working on home improvement project contracting, no matter how painful."

"We are so very happy with our new deck done by Avec last month. We found out about Avec through the NextDoor app and engaged Kati (owner) for a proposal in spring 2021. Kati was forthright that it would be about a month before she could schedule coming to look at the current deck, 2-3 weeks before a proposal, and about 6 months before the work could be done. All of that was no problem with us and I'm so very glad that our timetables aligned. Kati really went to bat for us with a zoning/permit issue with Ffx County, got it resolved after many hours and communicated with us throughout. This was foreshadow of how well she communicated with us as we were on their schedule and as the work progressed. We have a great completely new deck (lumber with Trex deck boards and railing caps), built to code and solid foundation, great advice of design, and it was priced well- not much more than just "resurface" and "restore" bids from other contractors. One of the best contractor experiences I could have hoped for."

"The crew did a great job - our porch/stairs were wooden and rotting, they were able to replace with Trex and the suggestions in connection with railing styles, etc look great and very solidly built."

"We recently hired Deck Builders, Inc (DBI) to build a new screened porch with a replacement deck and stairs and are very pleased with the results. The owner, Ricardo Anturiano, and the work crew- led by Ronald — were professional, courteous, and hard working. Ricardo was frequently on site and available to answer questions in person, by phone or text. We interviewed 4 different builders in our area before ultimately choosing DBI for several reasons: First, DBI was able to provide the TimberTech composite boards and railings we preferred; second, they offered the most reasonable pricing for our project; and third, we were impressed with their level of expertise and decades of experience. DBI completed our project within budget and the quality of their workmanship is outstanding. If you are looking for an honest, skilled builder, we highly recommend Deck Builders, Inc!"
