I am leaving a review to speak to communication with Noel's landscaping…read more Although I did not end up having them work on the project, Noel's landscaping was quick on communication, responding same day and often within an hour or two. They showed up as soon as they were able to provide bids, faster than any other landscaper I asked for a bid from, and took extra time to be clear and ask questions about what I wanted. I would have no worries about communicating with this company. I would ignore any Yelp reviews where somebody gave them 1 or 2 stars for communication, answering the phone, etc. I would also remind people that Noels landscaping has a ton of positive reviews on non-Yelp sites.

I have been hesitant to write this review because I wanted to give Volkan Ironworks the chance to…read moreright their wrongs. But they have chosen not to. I am a general contractor and had a very bad experience with Volkan Ironworks. Check the other reviews, people have had a similar experience. This railing project which they forecasted to take 2 months took 11 MONTHS for them to finish! The owner, Volkan Tetik, is a dishonest businessman and I would never use him again to install a railing. Once they have your deposit money, good luck ever getting him on the phone ever again! You will never speak with Volkan, only his lower-level employees. The Superintendent in charge of my project, Eddie, was so unorganized. Management and quality control was awful. I'd say there were 10 separate occasions when they told me the work was complete. Then I'd go out and inspect the work and find a ton of stuff that wasn't done. Here is a summary of some of the issues: Their work van would pull on site with 2 guys in the front seat, but they wouldn't get out of their car. They would just sit there on their phones for hours. This happened multiple times over multiple weeks. Other tradesmen on site were laughing, "Those guys just sit in their truck and never work! How can they still be in business..." I told their boss Eddie but this still continued for weeks. I was told they fired that work crew and they hired another crew. That crew was better, but the management was still very poor. Quality control was abysmal. I basically had to take over managing their work and inspect every square inch of railing myself. Which is crazy, since in all, I paid this company more than $100,000. I made a list of all the needed repairs and babysat them for weeks while they made these repairs: -The railing they initially installed didn't meet code. The ends of the railings didn't terminate in a wall. So with the open-ended railing, a person could snag a bag or piece of clothing on the railing end and fall down the stairs. This is such a basic fundamental of railing design that I was shocked they installed it incorrectly the first time. -There were sharp places on the railing where someone could cut themselves. These needed to be cleaned up sanded or grinded down. -The railing was purchased as a kit, but for some reason they chose to use all kinds of mismatched screws in the assembly - there were Phillips head screws, square drive screws... -They left out in the rain on our newly refinished decks screws, drillbits and sawblades which caused rust staining we weren't able to remove. -They touched up the railing with black spraypaint, but didn't put down dropclothes, so they sprayed black spraypaint on my newly installed concrete. -Glass pieces weren't centered in the opening, which looked bad. -They left a mess - cut off pieces of metal and other sharp fragments were left in the patio and lawn area. -Missing screws in the railing. Screws not fully set flush. -There were many places where the black paint scuffed off and bare metal was showing. Some issues popped up with the railing a little over one year after it was installed. I reached out to the owner, Volkan Tetik, and he wanted to charge almost $2000 to come out and make the repairs. What a dishonest contractor! Never use Volkan Ironworks or Volkan Railing. It's an awful use of your time and your money!

In mid-March 2019, we contacted a number of concrete contractors for a relatively small job,…read morepouring a slab inside an existing structure, around 250-300 square feet. We ended up receiving two bids, one from the Guion Brothers and one from another company which was $600 less. Because of the glowing Facebook reviews and people recommending them on the Facebook's Snohomies page, we opted to go with the Guion Brothers even though it was so much more money. We made a mistake at this point, failing to notice that the contract did NOT specify a start or completion date. When I spoke with Shane Guion, he said that it was a small job for them and they "would fit it in no problem." We sent a deposit check ($1500) along with the signed contract on April 2nd and then heard nothing about it. We followed up and they indicated that they had received the check and ended up cashing it. We then asked twice when we should expect them to show up and do the job. The first time, we got no response. The second time we asked when to expect them, we were told "we're gonna have to squeeze it in because we're booked through summer right now" and "can't give you an exact date but we will take care of it in the next month or so." Although we were not in a rush, we were less than pleased to hear them being so vague on when they could get to our job. They said we could wait or they could refund us our deposit. We opted to get a refund since it seemed like our small $3K project wasn't a priority for them and we wanted our work done before the summer. They said the check would go out the next day (April 18th). A week later after receiving nothing, we asked again for an update and was told it was sent out the previous day. Having dealt with more than our share of contractors at this point in life, we told them that if we didn't receive our deposit by Friday (the 26th), we'd take further action. They responded with a snarky comment that "they're doing us a favor" because "we signed a contract and were breaking it." We did finally receive our refund, and now have to find another contractor to do the job after having wasted nearly a month trying to get them to do the job we paid for. If this is the type of customer service you expect to get from a contractor, then feel free and try it. We were so excited to go with someone so highly recommended even at the expense of paying a higher fee but our experience wasn't matched all the glowing reviews unfortunately.

We were looking for years, and absolutely fell in love with the place they built. While I can't comment on the working relationship, I can can comment on their quality of outcome, which is stellar. Gas line? Hot water recirc? Heated flooring? Large overhangs? Pushing your space to the legal height limits? Balconies, induction stoves, floor to ceiling Anderson doors and spacious windows or open concept living areas? Glass garage doors? Garappa platform decking? Energy recovery ventilator? Electric car charging? Mini split AC? Everything is beautiful, everything works, and we're super happy with the end result. Is it perfect? No. Is anything ever perfect? Also no. Has every inspector or tradesman we've hired made an unsolicited comment on the build quality? Yes. Has that happened to our friends or family? No, definitely not with this unprompted consistency. While we have some settlement problems with the flooring, issues with some appliances, some scraping on the balcony doors, and the drainage pump should have used waterproof wing nuts (also the float valves easily get caught), overall it's a supremely complex 5 story build with stellar results. We're only a year in, so we'll see how it goes, but so far so great.
