AlTerra Contruction was very professional and easy to work with from the planning stages through construction for our deck project.  We had a lot of questions going into the project and Dylan took the time to talk to us about all of our options and his recommendations.  He was very knowledgeable and we definitely felt that we could trust his work.  When it came time for construction he and his assistant were always on time and worked very efficiently.  They kept us updated throughout the project and cleaned up well afterward.  We are very happy with the quality of their work and would use them again for future projects.

After meeting with several contractors & getting several bids on updating a 4 season room, I chose to go with ALterra Construction. 

For me the deciding factor in choosing Alterra was the feeling of trust I had that I would never be taken advantage of if and when the unknown and unexpected happened,  as it always does.

Working with Dylan was an absolute pleasure from beginning to end!! He understood what my wife and I wanted which made the process of selection so much easier for us. We had an idea of what we were looking for and had many pictures of rooms and fireplaces we liked but Dylan made our thoughts and ideas a reality, he built us exactly what we wanted.

As always when you purchase a home,  unexpected problems arise.   Dylan was beyond fair in how he priced out the additions to the original project. 

Everyone he introduced me to for work outside his area of expertise was as honest and fair as Dylan. His workers were all very respectful of our home and a pleasure to have in our home.

Now that we are done with Phase 1, we have to come up with Phase 2 just so we can have him back around the house again.

I highly recommend ALterra to anyone and I would not think twice about calling him again for our next project.

The quality of the work has been excellent. Everyone who the contractor has brought in to work on our home has been friendly, professional, and courteous. The contractor was straightforward about costs, and flexible with our evolving needs, but occasionally too optimistic regarding when each stage of the project was expected to be completed. There have been a few glitches along the way, some due to miscommunication, some to delays in materials being delivered to the contractor or to the homeowner, or to other factors, but overall we've been happy.

Very professional. A joy to work with, and he listened to my wife when she talked about what needed to be done.

Dylan and the team were professional, neat (both in my
living space and in quality of the work). I got multiple bids and they
were right in line with the price and I appreciated the honest
evaluation of the issues in my home. I always received a text about when
to expect them to arrive and I can promise I will be back with a larger
remodeling project in the future.

ooStill working still ongoing on kitchen remodel.  Problems with backorder on
kitchen counter and travertine tile did not all match( so had to
reorde)- caused delay in job completion.  But that was better than Dylan
using the tiles that were way too dark (tho same product).  Price
seemed reasonable to me- but did not seek other pricing since I trust
Dylan to do good work and stand behind his work.  This is my fourth job
with Alterra Construction.

Dylan and Mark are excellent team to work with. They worked on 2 projects for us so far. Both were completed on time (well, with tiny delay but still excellent comparing to any other any contractor I ever worked with). They clearly take pride in their work and do not slack. Their quote was better out of 4 quotes I received for the projects and I could not be happier with the result :)

Dylan moved the the furniture as needed, though I took out most of drawers to reduce the weight.  Dylan cleans up every day so dust and trash was very minimum.  Went very smoothly until new carpet installation.  Unfortunately the carpet people forgot to order the carpet and this error was not noticed until Dylan was ready for the carpet.   So there was a delay for carpet installation and completion of job.

One of the bifold door bottom pivot was lost in the shuffle, so I had to buy one and install that bifold door.

The rooms look great and Kathleen  does a great job selecting paint colors.  Much more adventurous that I am
 
Dylan did my bathrooms a few years ago and I plan to hire for my kitchen remodel next year.
