One star is better than they earned. They seemed nice and capable when they came to bid our project…read morebut that changed very quickly! This is the seventh renovation/project we have done and their work was the absolute terrible; they used the wrong brick so it does not match our existing brick, they did not grade one of the two patios correctly, every plant they transplanted died including the 6 they threw away. Further, they are condescending and no matter what was agreed to they will deny it and say you are lying or misunderstood. We did not realize we should have gotten every single conversation in writing. They were hired to put in two small patios- one on either side of an existing walk way, stairs across one patio and a platform for our ceramic grill. They started the job a couple of days late, complained that we had to get the area treated for termites since "everybody else just uses bait stations here", even though they were told about the treatment before they bid the job since we had a termite issue last year. They were to match the brick and pattern as the front porch and outdoor fireplace in the back next to the new patios- they did not. We told them the brick was wrong before they laid it but we were told "it was it just had to weather and let the chemicals leach out." We repeated our concern four time and was told something different every time. The second time I talked to Richard Fister about the brick being wrong I was alone; he had come to our house at 6:45 without letting me know. As I was expressing my concern about the brick asking if they had taken a brick to compare before ordering like the other contractors that provided quotes he said "his wife was going through menopause and maybe that is happening to me and I should go in the house and have a glass of wine." While they laid the brick in the same pattern they used the face not the side like all of our other brick so it is clear that it is different even if they had matched the brick. We hired a graphic designer for the area- not one of the specs was accurate- one side is wider than the other, the cubby openings are smaller and the workstation platforms are 2" taller than the design because Richard Fister, the owner told Lucas Fister, his son who also over saw the project "it would look better" however they didn't bother to speak with us until it was too late to fix. Lucas Fister said it was hard to do because of the cinder block. The designer specifically pointed out that her dimensions and spacing took into account the sizing of cmu blocks which is just a cinder block. As stated, all plants and shrubs that were not thrown away died because they did not transplant with a root ball or plant correctly, the wind would literally blow the plants over. When we told Richard Fister his response was "well the guys really just didn't want to transplant them." Then why charge us $650 to transplant them?? Once they died, he said "well sorry that isn't guaranteed." Even for the 6 thrown away. At the end they wanted an additional 2K+, when we asked for invoices, Lucas Fister became irate and verbally aggressive. He was asked to leave our property; we have never had anything like this ever happened to us so unsettling to say the least. We had to install additional cameras in the back of our house for security. Richard Fister was there and said he would finish the punch list which included an enormous amount of mortar at the side of the stairs, wholes all in our yard where they moved plants, landscape lighting wire that had been cut in several places, drip lines cut, paint on the siding of our house and column repair. He has agreed to come four different times and canceled each time the day of. We have not heard from them in a month and assume they will not be back to complete the punch list. I cannot stress how much you should stay away from these people, especially if you live on Daniel Island or Dunes West (I assume any nice neighborhood would get the same reaction) which Lucas Fister made sure to let us know we are all "broke" people.

It was completed right on schedule, and the cost stayed true to estimate despite the additional time and extras that were added to ensure my yard was perfect.

I love my newly landscaped yard, and I am incredibly grateful for their service.

I can't say enough good things about Priority, and do not understand the negative reviews here…read more After using a "mow, blow & go" landscaper for years that underwhelmed, I hired Priority to do an extensive cleanup. When I say extensive, they were here several days and hauled out 4 trailers of cuttings. The attention to detail and responsiveness to my ongoing requests was outstanding. My contact, Connor Bailey, was a joy to work with. He is a very professional and honest guy that communicated effectively throughout the project. My property now reflects the quality that I want my guests to experience. Lastly, the workers were excellent-I've never seen such a hard working group of guys, and they were all courteous. I highly recommend Priority-they more than exceeded my expectations

In September 2015 we had new gutters placed on our house and the team that assisted me from the original quote in August 2015 (Tommy) to the installation were fantastic. Gutter Masters were open and upfront with their installation date and the cost of installation. Since we had the gutters installed we've had the 100 year storm and Hurricane Matthew. During both downpours we had absolutely no problems with our gutters. I can't recommend this business enough. Great workmanship, full transparency, and courteous service.

I've used Express Sunrooms for 4 projects now over the past 3 years, and I'm very grateful to have…read morechosen a locally owned company. We just finished our 4th project today, an outdoor patio covering. We've done a concrete firepit, pool decking and sunroom. These projects were not inexpensive, but I felt that the value is there for the craftsmanship, warranty and overall experience. I appreciate that they answer their phones when you call and they get back to you quickly. The craftsmanship is excellent. Jose and his team really did impressive work. I appreciate the fact that Chip who oversaw several aspects of our projects helped to advise us whenever we had questions. In all 4 projects, I never had a concern about who was coming to work at our home. The crews left the work sites clean and orderly and always took great care to make sure our yard was cleaned off. (I can tell you there aren't many companies who actually do that!) The project wasn't always perfect, but no construction ever is. Here is where Express Sunrooms set themselves apart. When my husband and I weren't happy with part of the project, Express made it right. They truly stand behind their work and resolved our concern. I would recommend Express Sunrooms to anyone in the Lowcountry.

I purchased motorized shades for my back porch almost one year ago. Let's start with the sales man…read more He told me the shade would be able to go all the way to the ground. However, surprise,surprise after fill installation we were told that's not even an option for unspecified reason. And of course my contract did not specify the length so we were stuck. Then the installation crew damaged the framing to my porch. Instead of fixing it properly they just offered us money to do it ourselves which was not suitable and did a bad patch job when they finally returned. Now to the present, 3 of my shades are broken and I have been calling the office for over 1.5 month and the "service" person has never responded or called. If I could get a full refund and replacement value I would be happy. I do not recommend anyone me use this company
