Their bid was in the middle of the pack, but the companies owner's professionalism, technical expertise, and genuine concern about our happiness and satisfaction was significantly above his peers. He did not tell us what he thought we wanted to hear, he gave us his honest opinion and feedback - even when he did not agree with our ideas. He discussed our project with us, it never felt like he was trying to sell me something. His team is the epitome of professionalism, from their technical competence to their work ethic, to the respect they treated the project and our property with. Hard workers. effective and efficient. Superior product delivered. I would choose Va Deck Works again in a heartbeat. Investing a latge amount of money on a home improvement project is scary, but this company did everything right. Photos to follow at a later date.

We wanted a large chain linked fence area for a chicken run…read more And as I mentioned to Joe of the problems we needed to solve, he said he could build us a little wood retaining wall, would weld a chain link fence over the top too, and build tunnel from the run into the gated area. Struck me as an eager problem solver. He really did a good job of it over all. The wooden retaining wall wasn't perfect though, like they didn't put a gravel bed down first which AFAIK is usually done. And oddly the sides were built with the angle of the hill slope vs building the side level with the back as it probably should have been (level with the back, then level up to front tapper of a downward slope). Although it added some wacky charm to it which fits our custom chicken coup anyhow. The whole chain linked fence with welded top (of crossmembers and chain link) is great, the tunnel was way better than expected (very study and solid). But I'll take one point off for: A) I wish Joe was a more communicative over the build period, and B) He charged almost double the VA legal max for the deposit. Overall he did good by us and happy we chose Joe to do this work.

We paid $4800 for an elegant arch fence but he installed an extremely cheap fence and hope we didn't notice. The worse part about him was he didn't even think about asking for our approval. He just installed another gate because "How would a woman notice?" We have text messages and photos of him showing us the gate we approved, but then he installed another. Who cheats families like this? Furthermore, when we sent an email with all the photo and text message evidence, he called us crazy and said it was a "pretty" fence and he made a "mistake" by installing another fence. For a man that has been in business for 33 years, that's not a mistake. When he finally cowardly admitted he made a mistake and he re-ordered it on August 1- he kept telling us it will be here in 2 weeks... 2 weeks go by and he avoids our calls and communications. With over 8 attempts to collect proof that he ordered the correct fence we paid for (which turned out to be $990.00) to which we charged us $4800, the supplier- Iron Mountain- confirmed that he JUST made the order on August 18th. When I confronted him on this, he called me a child and said he would come to my office to "discuss". Why would he think it is okay to persuade me that I am wrong when I paid him in full $14,000 worth to install a cheap gate and he's avoiding correcting his mistake. JOE is a fraud. not one word in his mouth is true. He is a shady contractor and I urge all families out there to take caution of Kidwell Fencing. In addition to my gate, I had them complete my fence mind you it's only 293 ft of 4 board padlock with wire mesh and that took his team nearly 4 weeks to complete. The issues arose when his team only worked 4 hours a day, left a colossal mess with their personal garbage including watermelon everywhere, and the worse was when they kept driving over my septic tank when my husband told them not to. The pure disrespect and unprofessionalism. Note, I am a contractor and I own a federal construction company and it's companies like Kidwell Fencing that gives us a bad name. Joe is a duplicitous con man.

AMAZING! If I could give Whitmer Decks six (or more) stars, I wouldn't hesitate…read more Cliff Whitmer and his entire crew--Sam, Mike, Pavlo, Wade, and Keen--truly knocked it out of the park from start to finish. From our very first meeting with Cliff (the company owner!) to the final walk-through with Sam, the project manager, the experience was exceptional every step of the way. The communication throughout the entire process was outstanding. Not once did we feel anything less than a top priority. Texts were answered within an hour, and emails were always returned within hours. That level of responsiveness gave us complete confidence and peace of mind. Mike, Pavlo, and Wade were the primary builders, and they were phenomenal. They treated us like rock stars during the entire three-and-a-half-week build. Mike, the lead carpenter, took the time to explain every phase of the project in detail, which my wife and I truly appreciated. Whitmer Decks removed our old deck and built a beautiful new 14x12 screened porch, along with a 10x10 deck and staircase. I'm no professional photographer, but the results speak for themselves--we are absolutely thrilled. We can't wait for warmer weather so we can fully enjoy our stunning new space. The craftsmanship is simply incredible. These guys are true artists. Every time we look at the work Whitmer Decks completed, we're blown away all over again. Thank you to Cliff, Sam, Mike, Pavlo, Wade, Keen--and Spark Roofing as well. You are all amazing, and we will not hesitate to give our highest recommendation to anyone who asks. I want to mention that their estimate/upgrade process was incredibly easy and actually fun to work with! Each upgrade came with about 5-10 photos that were VERY helpful in envisioning what the final product would actually look like! With gratitude, Shawn Purcell

It has taken me a few days to reflect on the extraordinary experience of dealing with a Veteran,…read moreFamily-owned business. Some context is in order first. This past Memorial Day Weekend, Saturday, my wife and I came home from celebrating between 6-7PM. As we entered our house, just as we stepped inside we heard an explosive crash. Immediately we thought someone had driven into our garage door, and it had fallen on our car. Somewhat of a relief, when we opened the door back into the garage, snapped cables were evident, and the door could not be lifted. We debated whether or whom to call knowing that no one would be working over the Holiday. So we began an AI search of regional garage door repair companies. After an exhaustive search we homed in on Door Serv Pro---their customer reviews, their standing with the BBB and rankings in several regional publications were encouraging. We gave a call fully anticipating that a recorded voice mail would be encountered. Instead Riley picked up the phone and very cheerfully greeted us. Frankly we were immediately shocked that a real human being would be manning the phone over the Holiday! After describing our situation (we were unable to exit the garage in an emergency) she first re-assured us that we were very very lucky that the door missed our car by inches. Second, she said Door Serv could get someone out the next day but there would be Holiday Service charge and that frankly, if we were able to wait till Tuesday, she could have one of their best techs at our place almost O-Dark Early Tuesday. Adam and Dylan arrived first thing Tuesday; we were smart to wait. Adam is the Service Manager with 16 years of garage door repair experience. Dylan is a young and capable apprentice. They knew exactly what to do. TOTAL PROFESSIONALS. They communicated throughout their door exam and recommended a course of action. Yes, they were not the least expensive; however two of our neighbors just recently and took "the least expensive" firm and regretted it (had to repeat the repairs with other firms!) Adam and Dylan are quite the team: highly knowledgeable, immaculate in their work, and a pleasure to have repairing what could have been a disaster. Not only are they personable, they made certain they cleaned up everything, and removed the debris/leaves in our garage! Within a day their team notified us to make sure we were pleased....we cannot lavish more praise on Door Serv--- we took a shot and they hit the mark. WHAT A PLEASURE TO WORK WITH A FIRM THAT IS NOT ONLY COMPETENT, BUT UNDERSTANDS SOLID CUSTOMER SERVICE. I would give them 10 STARS IF ABLE!

After explaining to the young lady, "Maddie," on the phone that I only needed the torsion springs replaced and provided precise measurements for the parts, she said no problem. Our technicians are fully stocked and can replace them on-site if I agree to the price. Once the technicians arrived, they examined everything and stated that they would have to install a conversion kit. However, this was not what I had requested nor what Maddie had suggested could be done. The conversion kit parts and labor would cost just over $1,200.00, sir. Unfortunately, the complete conversion kit costs $287.00, and the total labor hours are limited to two hours. Therefore, $1,200.00 minus the parts ($287.00) equals $913.00. Subtracting the labor (2 hours) from $913.00 gives us $456.50 per hour. I'm sorry, but that's certainly not good business practice. And certainly not what an average garage technician gets paid even if you split the 456.50 between the techs. 228.25/ hr is still nowhere near what garage techs get paid around this area. Made a call as soon as they left to another company "The door guy" same kit , same service $636.00 after parts labor and taxes.

To me that's not worthy of bad star ratings I can tell you from my perspective this family and the people that work for them are great to work with. We went and talked to them got a quote for a pool last year put a nonrefundable thousand dollar deposit down because we knew we wanted a pool and was not supposed to have started the dig until August 2024 ( this year ), because we put a deposit down a few people in line dropped off to wait, which bumped us up and our pool was started in November 2023 and completed a month later. From the time they started digging until the end of this season, they have been nothing but helpful. Anytime I have water issues. I take a water sample in and both Jane or Amber will look at it and guide me on what needs to be added. Anybody that is looking to have a pool put in needs to give them a chance keep in mind they're a small company so they have a set of guys that work on a pool so there is a waiting period but they are very much worth the wait.
