    SFW Construction - Column dry rot

    SFW Construction

    Northwest, Alphabet District

    About the worst news you can receive as a homeowner is that you have failed siding that needs…read morereplacing, because it's not just the siding, it's what is underneath that has to be addressed. Two side of our house needed siding replaced due to construction flaws and water intrusion. We chose SFW Construction based on their Angies List recommendations. The workers were very skilled, they knew exactly what they needed to do, explained everything to us every step of the way. This is painful work for a homeowner: it is slow, noisy, invasive, and very very expensive. It took over three weeks to do two sides of our tall skinny house, and we spent about 10% of the purchase price of the house on the repairs. Painful, as I said. Very happy with the work and the people who did the work. 5 stars for that. I took one star off because they recommended SFW Painting to paint our house, and if you read my review of that company, doubt may creep into your mind as to whether you should do business with SFW. I can say that SFW Construction did a good job, and they were very good people to work with.

    During a roof replacement, dry rot was identified in two second-story dormer window sills (~25-30…read moreft up, difficult access). I contacted SFW Company, which sent a representative who proposed accessing the area via the roof using boards already in place from the roofing crew. He and I spoke directly with the roofers and asked them to leave those boards in place for that purpose. I agreed to that plan. The next day, that approach was changed on-site by a supervisor without prior discussion. This raises a basic question: why send someone to evaluate the job who does not have the authority or knowledge to accurately define the work plan and access? Instead, three workers (billed at $125/hour each) spent essentially the entire day setting up two ladders with a plank between them, including fastening into my newly installed shingles. The total came to $3,000 for the day just for the labor, with very limited actual repair work completed (partial shingle removal on one dormer). The company also charges for worker break times, stating in writing that their 2 breaks must be paid by home owner due to "Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA)." As a homeowner, I found this unusual--I have not previously been billed for contractor break time. Additionally, while lead paint procedures were initiated (notice on the home entry and paperwork), the containment method discussed was not implemented. Overall, this hourly model--combined with a last-minute change in approach--while lucrative for SFW is not economical for the homeowner and does not incentivize efficiency. Spending a full day on ladder setup with minimal progress was difficult to justify. I discontinued the project after the first day (additional $1781.25 charged to remove the set up!--3 men at $125 per hour ($375 per hour) adds up quickly).
