We had just built our house and custom pool and were in desperate need of 2 large patio covers. We did not want the average everyday cover though. We needed something custom, 2 tiered and very large. After weeks of looking and asking around we were directed too SAE. We talked with Scott, who came out onsite promptly and had tons of ideas that were just what we were looking for! After multiple meetings and finalizing the build, we had materials quickly and Scott (owner) went right to it. Our patios were both completed on time and with great craftsmanship. Scott really dedicated his days at our home with the upmost respect and quality! We are very pleased to say the least and would definitely recommend SAE builders to our community! Thanks again

Upon moving into my newly constructed house in Redlands, I had a fairly large job for the right contractor: - Concrete driveway extension (~1,020 sf) - Concrete side and rear patio slab (~1,060 sf) - Solid Alumawood patio cover (44' x 14') with recessed lights - Lattice Alumawood patio cover (300 sf) with post lights. - 21' x 18' x 8' freestanding garage/workshop/accessory building with electricity I solicited a number of quotes and SAE Builders was not the cheapest, although they also weren't the most expensive. I found Scott to be down-to-earth, highly knowledgeable, and thorough. I felt confident that he would do a high-quality job and that I'd be getting good value for my money. Given the scale of the work and my detail-oriented nature, there were bound to be lots of questions from me. Scott was always extremely responsive, typically answering correspondences within minutes, and was always willing to take the time to explain things that I didn't understand or was uncertain about. He was also very accommodating in several design changes that I requested such as changing the workshop to a structural ridge beam design and replacing the simple roll-up door with a specialized garage door with a track that followed the slope of the roof. Did the job go perfectly? No, but most of that was due to the Redlands permitting office which works painfully slowly - it literally took over a year to get everything approved and permits secured. As for the things that Scott was responsible for, there were some cracks in the concrete that appeared shortly after it was poured, and the external paint of the workshop ended up not matching the color of the house as was desired (Scott definitely did try to match the colors, but I guess color matching is hard to do). Despite those issues, I am overall very satisfied with the work that SAE Builders has done and am rounding my review up to 5 stars. I would not hesitate to recommend Scott and, in fact, have already done so to one of my neighbors. If you want to save as much money as possible, SAE Builders might not be your best choice. However, if you want quality work done for a fair price, they definitely deserve to be on your shortlist.

This is a late post but last year SAE Builders transformed our backyard in ways we couldn't imagine. We knew we wanted a patio cover and Scott gave us a direction and walked us through each detail from design to options. He remained in constant contact and always let us know what the next step was. He planned for future additions if we decided to add things later on. He coordinated the concrete work and once it was dried had the patio cover up in a few days (which he did alone). He tested it for leaks and followed up with us later for assurance. His attention to detail, productivity, and communication leaves us highly satisfied with choosing him to work on our home. Thank you Scott. Highly recommend and would use again.

We're so lucky to have found Scott and his company that pride excellency, honesty, integrity, and professionalism in his work. Our family could not be any happier with the project (patio cover) results. You get all your money's worth. Thank you Scott for your excellent work. We really cannot thank you enough. More power and projects to come your way! Highly recommended for anyone looking for perfection!

Scott is hands down the best contractor I've ever worked with. He's personable, professional, punctual, and a total detail-oriented craftsman. He converted my downstairs laundry and guest room into an ADU and turned an upstairs guest room into a dream laundry room and office. It turned out amazing! As long as he's in business he's going to be doing all of my projects!

Scott is a professional perfectionist His work is outstanding ... He has done work for us and quite a few people we know. For example he just recently installed an Anderson arch Picture window in the front of our home . His work was clean and precise from start to finish . Also , When/if you ever see the outcome of some of his projects it's instantly tempting to have work done from him because of his creative designs!!!! Looking forward to more of his work around our home ... worth every penny !!

Scheduling maybe a bit long, but overall SAE builders Provided an excellent customer service. Thank you for your honesty and excellent work. Looking forward to getting another successful job in the near future! Way to go

SAE Builders did an outstanding job on our backyard Alumawood patio. Scott transformed our concrete slab area with a gazebo into a gorgeous covered outdoor dining and sitting area! Superb customer service and workmanship! You won't find another contractor who genuinely cares and doesn't cut corners!

5 stars for not returning calls. Seems my 31x12 patio cover and triple that in concrete is not a big enough job to return a call. Business must be good for you. Congrats.

SAE Builders installed this lattice/solid patio and fan. We were very happy with the finished product!!

SAE Builders were very professional and knowledgeable. Scott was helpful in going over the options available and gave great advice. He was able to quickly give us a quote and the price was competitive. Contractor arrived when they said they would and on time. They provided quality workmanship in a timely matter. Scott and his crew did a great job on the installation and my family will enjoy this for years.

Our experience with Scott and his crew was great! Scott was easy to reach via email and text and he answered all of our questions (and I had a lot!). He consulted us well on the design and dimensions of the patio cover, even down to the color, which we love. All the guys on his crew were very nice and professional. The total amount of time it took to build our patio cover was 3 days-- better than we expected. We now have a really awesome covered patio in our backyard that feels like two separate rooms. We had a bbq recently and everyone was amazed at how good it looked. I'm already passing out SAE's contact information. Thank you so much, Scott and Crew!

Gretchen M.

We recently had our patio put in by SAE and we are completely satisfied with the results. We choose SAE because they were exemplary professionals. They provided proof of workers comp, licensing, and reponded quickly to provide an estimate. They submitted the plans to the city and had the patio signed off for us. I won't have to worry about resale issues. I appreciate working with people who take pride in doing things right.

Finished Alumawood lattice patio cover. Love the partial sun / partial shade it provides.

Immediately after install, the gutters leaked. No big deal, as I imagine it happens from time to time. The issue is that they dodged my phone calls and emails repeatedly. They kept pushing back their availability for weeks at a time. Months go by and they're never available to come out and do a very small adjustment. They're usually not even available to return a call or email. We ended up having another contractor come to adjust the gutters. Paid out of pocket. Update: It seems necessary to provide a timeline of what is being referred to as "availability". I'd also argue that a "good install" is not one that has a leak in the exact same spot as the original system that caused damage to my deck. 08/02: We send initial email requesting adjustment 08/05: Stutzman response: Can send someone out after the 10th and will confirm a date later on. 08/11: No update from Stutzman. I send follow up email indicating that we're available this week as Stutzman indicated he should be available as well. 08/12: Stutzman response: We're out of town. Will follow up when back in office. 08/15: Stutzman response: Maybe available next week 08/20: We send a text message, no response 08/22: We send email asking for follow up 08/23: We call and leave a voicemail 08/26: Stutzman response: We're working on a job for two weeks. We can come out after that. I will reach out when I'm available. 08/28: We send email. No response 08/28: We leave a voicemail. No response 09/23: We leave a voicemail. No response 09/25: We send an email. No response 10/03: Stutzman response: We might be in your area next week. At no point was an actual date set in the two months that we attempted to get help. We either received no response from Stutzman, or were given the run-around. If Stutzman had simply set a date to come out, this issue could have been resolved, but no availability was ever offered. The 1-star review is indicative of a job that didn't solve our original problem and poor customer service. Both of which could have easily been handled and changed the outcome of this review.

From the start, communication was clear and professional, and they helped me choose a layout that would look great and work well for everyday use and entertaining. The workmanship was top-notch. The patio cover is sturdy, level, and neatly finished, and everything looks like it was done with real care rather than rushed. The lighting setup is especially impressive, and being dimmable makes a huge difference. I can easily set the brightness nighttime cooking on the grill, evening dinner, or a relaxed ambiance at night, and the dimming works smoothly without flicker or weird behavior. They were also respectful of my property, kept the work area clean, and made sure I understood how to use the lighting controls before they wrapped up. Overall, the finished patio looks fantastic and has completely upgraded how we use the space. I'd highly recommend West Coast Aluminum Patios to anyone looking for a quality patio cover and well-designed, controllable lighting.

I have had several handymen and painters that promised they'd rehabilitate the shingles. Either they don't fix all the shingles or they do a bad job. I had almost given up. I found Excel Siding on "Thumbtack" I think. Finally I got someone that knows what they're doing. It wasn't cheap but l could see it was a lot of work.

After meeting with Adam and several other contractors, I decided to go with Patio Guy not only…read morebecause of his five-star rating, but several other factors that were important to me (and probably you as well): 1) He could deliver and install my new cover within a week vs. the other guys taking months; 2) I wasn't limited to just the AlumaWood product (which wasn't modern enough for me), and (3) his price to install with an upgraded cover (insulated) was far below his competitors constrained by higher overhead and slower delivery times. I ended up selecting a Duralum cover that his company also offers, and I'm glad I did. It's just the look I was going for. I was also impressed with Adam's business model, which is built on quality and efficiency at a very reasonable price without cutting corners or sacrificing customer service. Now for the best part: A guy named Brody, his lead installer. In addition to being a super nice guy, his work is meticulous. The back of my home isn't linear, so there are bump-outs and protrusions, making the installation more difficult and time consuming. This wasn't the slightest challenge for Brody and his team. The finished product is snuggled tightly against my stucco and professionally sealed on the roof to prevent any water dripping through when it rains. I watched him work, measuring and cutting the aluminum to match my home so the fit and finish is far greater than I imagined. As you can tell from the photos, I still have work to do (concrete coating, fence repairs, etc.) to match the beauty of my new cover.

We ended up getting a quote from Andy's Glass last fall for significantly less money and with a better warranty! Obviously we went with Andy's and the windows were a huge update on our house. We are very happy with the look and quality! The most recent home update they completed for us was a new front door. I already knew exactly what I wanted and they were able to make it happen and again, for a great price!

We've used a different shower glass company multiple times in the past for our last house we remodeled and LOVE that company but figured this time around we could try Glass Guru for this newly remodeled shower because they are more local and our previous experience with them was great! Unfortunately, this experience was subpar, 2/5 stars (hence my 3/5 star rating, I split the difference between my two experiences with this company). Setting up the estimate appt was easy and they came out quickly. The estimate arrived promptly as well. We decided to pull the trigger and that's slightly where it went downhill. Due to the tile we used, I did ask the estimator Jay what option would be best. Floating shower doors or a set up that had metal trim around the whole thing that holds the glass in a more sturdy manner.. he said either would work. When the guys came to install, they didn't really seem to know what they were doing. The end result looked very sloppy, the clear silicone looked like it was pasted on by a 5 year old and a black trim piece placed along the bottom was crooked. When I mentioned this to Jay, he said he would happily replace the trim piece but would need to order it. When I told him this was our only real "complaint" he followed up with a statement "well, so I have a complaint now, the tile you used is really thin". Um, ok, what does that have to do with this situation?! I asked from the beginning what shower glass would be best and was told that any would be ok but now we're talking about how thin my tile is?! What a very odd statement to make to a customer AFTER install. This should be assessed prior to install AND I asked what glass set up would be best for our shower. Anyhow, 2-3 weeks went by after mentioning all of this and complete silence. I had to actually call to ask when this new trim piece would be installed and then they finally set up the appt. When a customer has an issue with something, they shouldn't be the one to have to call and follow up, right? The same kids came to install the new piece and they did a better job but as I sit here today writing this, no one has followed up with me to see how everything looks now. The customer service is non existent with this company. I will definitely be returning to Exquisite Shower Glass in Corona for my next shower remodel, not Glass Guru. They might be good at some glass related things but sliding shower glass doors don't seem to be it.

The next Wednesday, without calling, he sends someone out. I'm not even home at the time, you want to know why? My Mom died that day and I was meeting with my family. I get a call from Caleb that someone from his "company" is at my home. I get home and the guy starts taking off the skirting and spends about 45 minutes checking everything out. The guy then tells me my place is off 4 inches in some places and 8 inches in others but he can't start today because he doesn't have the materials. He said he'd call Caleb and give me an estimate. Caleb then calls me and says he'll get back to me with an estimate, but for now, pay the guy's gas, $200! My Mom died unexpectedly 5 hours before this so I'm not in a great frame of mind. I ask for the fee again and he repeats $200. So I ask the guy do you take a credit card or can I zelle you? He said No, he needs cash. He wants me to drive to the local liquor store and pay another $10 in fees to pay this now obviously minor league, crooked company. Anyway I get him the money. Now let's get to the estimate of the work. If my home was off level by 6-8 inches, the skirting around my place would have buckled, bent, and sure as hell wouldn't look perfect. The wall in my home would be cracked. Kitchen cabinets wouldn't stay shut, it would be real obvious that my home wasn't level. OPM is a shyster. I bet the guy makes a living without ever actually doing any work, just collecting gas money. Do not use this company unless you like talking to bullshit artists and hate your money.

Extremely pleased! SAE Builders installed a solid alumna wood patio cover across the entire back of my home in December 2015. The end result was exactly what I had hoped for. I wanted the cover to have a specific look, extend two feet past the posts and independent wiring for fans and lighting. Scott answered all my questions and gave me a quote that included everything I wanted. The other quotes I received were competitively priced, however several contractors said the installs they do would not include some of the specifics I wanted. When asked why a specific item could not be done in the way asked for I was told "we just don't do it that way." Clearly SAE Builders works to please customers. Scott was always easy to contact via email or text. He worked with me to fulfill all the requirements of my HOA, provided very detailed paperwork for the patio cover and specific details of all permit requirements. Scot made sure all Inspection requirements were completed and ensured there would be no permit problems. I have very rarely been totally pleased with any work I have had completed in the past and dreaded even starting the process of this project. I am happy to say there was no aspect of the experience with SAE Builders that I am not pleased with. SAE Builders will be the first company called for any future project that falls within the boundaries of their services. read more

We found SAE from Yelp. Based on the other's rating, we decided to contact them to get a bid for replacing a rot plant box as a part of the exterior wall under the window. The previous owner didn't take care the house, and had the sprinklers directly spray water to it for years and it is rot inside-out. Scott responded to our request with a professionally written bid proposal. There are two two reasons we chose SAE, (1) Scott told us from the beginning that our project is relatively small so we have to wait about 4 weeks to fit their schedule, and he kept his word. (2) In addition sending his bid, he also suggested us to get a 2nd bid to compare. We indeed get the 2nd bid but overall we feel Scott'sbid is more straightforward. They finished the job in two days and we were not even there. We are totally satisfied with the results: they used the composite materials as we discussed in the phone to replace the rot wood, so it is virtually maintainance free, and they painted it to match the original. We are totally happy with their quality work. In another area they forgot to put the tile back to the proper place, and Scott came back to fix it after I called him. We are very satisfied with the work done by Scott and his team, and will use them again. read more

I don't normally write reviews, however, knowing how hard it is to find an honest and reliable company, that also follows through and provides top of the line final product, I chose to take the time to share our experience with Scott and SAE Builders. Scott was honest and knowledgeable about requiring a permit, working with our homeowners association, and choosing which patio cover would best serve all of our needs. From the very first meeting, until the final light bulb was screwed in, we were overwhelmed with the professionalism. The crews were on time, courteous, respectful, cleaned the area each and every night...and completed the job on time, exactly as quoted. I would highly recommend Scott and his company to anyone who wants an honest quote, creative input at the level you desire, and absolutley beautiful final product. We feel that the patio cover that was added to our home has added beauty, energy efficiency, and thousands of dollars in value. A+ experience, start to finish, and we could not be happier. read more

Finding a new contractor is always something that I hate to do. I never know if I'm going to be happy with the end results. I finally decided to go with SAE Builders and I'm extremely happy that I did. Scott and his crew installed an alumawood patio cover for us. Their attention to detail is amazing. Small details are given as much attention as the large ones. Things like finding the centers of the studs when attaching the ledger and sealing up all holes with polyurethane sealant. Small details like this make a lot of difference to me in the long run. All of the cuts and angles in the corners line up perfectly. It is very easy to miss an angle on a miter cut and cover it up with caulking but all of Scots cuts wered perfect. All electrical was run through conduit (SAE was the only one who did this as standard) and all access holes were sealed. I could go on and on but I think you get the point. If you want a quality installation that you will be happy with for years to come use Scott if you can get him. read more

I hired SAE Builders to replace my old wood patio cover. They did a fabulous job. I was in the middle of getting my house painted as well so they needed to split the job into 2 parts. 1st they came out and removed the old wood cover, and they took the time to seal the holes in my house where it attached and to sand down the metal posts where it attached to the ground so not to have any damage to my house or to trip over pieces sticking up. Then about 2 months later, once my house was painted, they came back and installed the new patio cover. Their installation method allows for the least amount of plugs so the appearance is smooth and it looks amazing. Even better than the old. They were professional, hard working, and cleaned up the area perfectly. I highly recommend Scott and his crew. read more

Scott and his crew are amazing. We started with an Alumawood patio cover that we just love. We went with a solid middle and lattice on both sides. Soctt even put the lights on a dimmer so we could enjoy our patio with the perfect ambiance. A few months later Scott was back for work inside. Bathroom, laundry room upgrade. We had crown molding and new base laid, The list of upgrades is huge but the bottom line is everything was done to perfection. If you have ever lived through a renovation you know it can be a nightnare! Scott and SAE made it a dream come true. They were prompt, neat and reliable. read more

The patio cover exceeded my expectations, but what was even more impressive is their genuine dedication to superior customer service. I asked for a cover on the second deck balcony & it has withstood very high winds & lasted 12 years. Scott even came out personally to inspect the cover to ensure it would do the job. After a terrible storm in 2007 with winds over 100 mph, my cover was damaged from roof tiles falling from the roof. Scott again inspected the new cover & made sure it was perfect. I cannot recommend them highly enough. read more

SAE built me a work shop and it turned out better than I dreamed. The workers that were on site were very professional and cleaned up the site each and every evening, including all of their tools. Each and every city inspection went without and negative comments. To the contrary, the inspector was very please with the work. I would definitely recommend SAE to anyone and offer my shop as a visual referral. SAE also beat other competitive bidders. 5 star builder. read more

SAE Builders helped me design and construct the Alumawood patio and pool pergola for my vacation rental home in Palm Springs, CA (www.palmspringscottage.com).

They showed up on time and didn't leave until everything was to my satisfaction. I would recommend SAE Builders for home projects like this. read more

I had an alumawood patio cover installed by SAE Builders. I found SAE Builders to be a very professional organization. I am extremely happy with the outcome of the patio cover. The only issue we had was during installation the ceiling panels were on backorder. This ended up delaying the project a few days, but Scott kept me updated the whole time. I would use SAE Builders again and recommend their service. read more

Front start to finish, Mike Gast and Juan Navarro worked with me to translate my vision into the bright open studio I have been dreaming of... As the project manager, Mike Gast was extremely patient and accommodating, and provided lots of feedback to solve various issues.

They even installed special thresholds so we could be assured of being able to roll equipment in and out of the space easily. After each stage of the job, the crew cleaned up the area and removed all debris. The price quoted us initially was in line with competitors, better than several, who failed to follow up with us. There was no cost-creep, and we finished at the price quoted us. Progress and payment was tracked on their online job project site, which was an added benefit and inspired confidence. I can highly recommend Mastercraft and hope to use them in the near future for several other home improvement projects.

I did my homework and got 5 different quotes for my solid aluminum patio cover project. Not only was Todd's price significantly better than all the rest, but the value and quality he delivered were unmatched. From our very first conversation, Todd was outstanding. His communication is excellent. He answered every single one of my questions and addressed all my concerns without hesitation. What I appreciated most was that he didn't just give me a generic cookie-cutter design. He took the time to ask detailed questions about exactly how I wanted my patio cover done. He consulted with me on every major detail, from how high I wanted the cover to be, down to the exact placement of the electrical outlet, recessed lights, and fan. The installation process was incredibly professional. Todd is meticulous, efficient, and leaves you with a gorgeous, structurally sound, flawlessly finished patio cover that has completely transformed our outdoor space. It is rare to find a contractor who combines top tier professionalism, fair pricing, and clear, honest communication. I cannot recommend Todd highly enough. If you want the job done right the first time without the corporate markup, he is your guy.

The day before Todd was supposed to arrive we ran into an issue with our HOA and had to get that sorted out before we could proceed. They were complaining about the dimensions of the patio cover. Todd was very gracious and patient with us while we got all of that sorted out, which I appreciated because we've interacted with many folks in the past who would just get upset and want to do the job and get paid right away. Even though he had already ordered the parts, he offered to manually adjust the dimensions during installation so we wouldn't have any issues with our HOA. I'm very grateful for that. Todd got the patio cover installed in just two days. Since then I've recommended him to a couple of neighbors, who all went with him after realizing his quotes can't be beat, and they've all been happy with his services.
