Get matched with top deck and porch pros in West Point, VA

"A Home Renovation LLC (Owner: Javier) ​Overall Rating: 2 out of 5 Stars (DO NOT RECOMMEND) ​I hired A Home Renovation LLC for a porch renovation, which included a smaller, agreed-upon auxiliary job. While the project was completed, the experience was deeply unsatisfactory due to both subpar workmanship in highly visible areas and the highly unprofessional and belligerent behavior of the owner, Javier. ​Issues with Professionalism and Communication ​Javier is exceptionally challenging and argumentative to work with. His communication was defined by open hostility, sarcasm, and dismissal of customer input. ​Argumentative and Dismissive: He was openly hostile to basic customer questions and input. When questioned, he repeatedly reminded me that he had "been doing this work 10 years," using his asserted experience to dismiss any concern or design preference I had. ​Rude and Disproportionate: When I politely requested an itemized receipt, his immediate, disproportionate response was: "Jesus Christ you told me at my earliest convenience. I'm working on it. I've been busy." This established a tone of disrespect for the entire engagement. ​Excusing Poor Quality: When a flaw in the completed work was pointed out, Javier’s response was, "you get what you pay for," suggesting low quality was justified despite our agreed-upon contract price. ​Contractual Obligation Treated as a "Favor": He treated the small, agreed-upon extra job as a personal favor rather than a commitment under our contract. ​Critical Workmanship and Material Damages ​The structural work was adequate, but the final, highly visible details suffered from poor execution and damaged materials. ​Poor Workmanship: The final detailing includes uneven cuts and poor finishes in prominent areas. ​Material Damage: We noted several critical material damages upon final inspection: ​Cracked stair post tubing. ​The hand railing running down the stairs is badly scratched. ​A new white handrail has a noticeable black stain on the bottom. ​Conclusion ​Had Javier been willing to engage respectfully, I might have been able to overlook minor imperfections. However, his belligerent attitude, combined with noticeable flaws and material damage, makes this unacceptable. ​I now require that all noted issues, including specific poor workmanship and material damages, be corrected immediately or that I be reimbursed for the cost of professional repairs. Due to Javier's conduct, A Home Renovation LLC has lost any opportunity for future projects I had planned. I strongly advise others to look elsewhere unless you can handle the disrespect."

"Job went as expected from beginning to end. We are very happy!"

"I'm a hard grader. Five stars would be perfect. My whole story is on my blog at https://slowoldrunner.com/life-stories/stoneridge-outdoor-living/ Good: They always arrived on time. I never had to worry about whether they would show up. Completed job before anticipated Stayed in communication with status. Good quality work Bad: Higher pressure sales process than competitors Bumped into my mailbox, and I had to replace Left ruts in my lawn where materials were dropped that I need to repair."

"This crew did an amazing job at a very good price. The fence came out perfectly straight and level, I’ve seen the work of other contractors in our neighborhood and DACAL does a much better installation at a better price. I would highly recommend this company for your fencing project."

"Great quality. Constant communication. Amazing renovation job on our bathroom. We'd recommend Ryan with RB to anyone."

"Beautifully!!! I will not work with anyone else. I recommend them to everyone I know and see. They are prompt, efficient and leave the job site neat and clean."

"Awesome service. Fair pricing. And responds quickly. I can always count on swift transition with all plumbing and handyman work."
