Mark Skerlec's crew put on a beautiful roof on our home back in 2009 when the weather was rough. The gentlemen worked hard and ensured that our home would be safely protected for years. They did a great job of cleaning up, too! read more

Our back deck had been a disaster since we moved into our house. It was a previous homeowner DIY project that was used with incorrect materials, and because of this it was causing the deck to sag in multiple locations. It also did not have any steps for access to the backyard. We spent a year and a half contacting contractor after contractor, no one wanted to help us get our deck up to par. Not one person that came out to look at the deck would give us an estimate on what it would take to fix the deck. Some told us they would only give us pricing for a new deck, others just ghosted us all together. Enter Mark Skerlec. Mark listened to our needs and then gave us a variety of options that could rectify the issues with the deck. After making our final decisions Mark quickly scheduled a date to begin his work. He was clean, he was quick, and he did incredible work. Our deck no longer sags. It no longer bounces when you walk on it. I also finally have direct access to the backyard. The most amazing part is Mark was able to take the time to match up the parts he used with the current design of the deck. Looking at it you would never know that it was once a monstrous atrocity. It is one complete, beautiful unit. It looks great. And I couldn't be any happier. Next time I need work done, interior or exterior, there won't even be multiple calls. Mark Skerlec is the only contractor I will use. read more

DON'T hire this company! He charged me over 500$ and My roof still was leaking, hired someone else to fix, he said nothing was fixed, I call to dispute this, and he won't return my calls read more

I hired Mark Skerlec to remodel two bathrooms at my mothers home. He was professional from the start and has always done quality work. More importantly, I can trust Mark to go in and out of the home with or without my mother being there. His work speaks for itself but knowing that he'll be there from start to finish is priceless (doesn't have subs coming in and out). read more

Skerlec Contracting, or at least Mark Sayre took advantage of a situation and shouldn't be trusted. Sayre performed work at my residence when hired by River Communities Fiduciary(which also should not be trusted) while it was held in a Trust at the time. Skerlec grossly overbilled the Trust twice what any reasonable contractor would've charged. I know this because I received all the invoices and asked several contractors to provide an estimate on the same work. I also tried for months to remedy this before writing my review. They charged $8,340(a total of 158 manhours) to seal a skylight, repair nailpops, seal spots on the roof, clean the gutters, replace a furnace filter, patch holes and paint a hallway, put in a new doorstop(which wasn't done), replace a garbage disposal, repair the kitchen floor, put tile in a powder room bathroom(this was done because they cut a piece of the flooring from the bathroom to fix the kitchen floor, even though extra pieces of flooring were in the garage so my bathroom floor was removed and tiled for no reason), they patched and skimcoated the front stairs, sealed a crack on the back porch, fixed drywall in the garage, and put new weatherstripping on the garage door. I say all this so I can be fair and allow everyone to see what was done. The total charge for labor was $6,850 and total for materials was $1,296. They even charged a 15% handling fee for $194. They bought everything at Home Depot and the total cost if I would've purchased the materials was $542. They also charged for basic items they should've had such as utility blades, dust masks, a sponge and spacers for the tile, and 3 separate pieces of "sample" tile to determine which one they wanted to use. I told Mark Sayre that I understood some of the things but it starts to look suspicious when something as simple as a door stop is said to be replaced and it isn't. If small stuff wasn't done then what big stuff wasn't done but billed for. He agreed with me that was a reasonable question. The same went for the sample pieces of tile. They were billed for but not used. They could've been returned. Maybe this was normal until I got the second invoice which was for $2201.13. What was that for. Well it was a total of 38 man hours to thaw the pipes when the furnace broke and the pipes froze. They charged $50 just to make a phone call to the repair company and $218 for materials and $32 for a handling fee?!? to thaw pipes. Once the house was removed from the Trust I had the same issue with the furnace. It was repaired and I simply turned the heat up and everything was fine. Again maybe just two coincidences and it could be explained. Well the final straw was the Trust company(which I should mention is friends with Skerlec/Sayre) kept pushing for possibly putting a new roof on. Skerlec gave an estimate for $20,000. When the house was released from the Trust I was required to to have a roof inspection for my home owners insurance. The roof inspection showed several loose tiles but the roof in good condition. Oddly enough Skerlec was supposed to have been on the roof and fixed issues up there. One of them being the skylight. Well several of the tiles around the skylight were loose and out of place. I also had two separate estimates done for roof replacement. They both came in around $10,000 and $12,000 respectively. Showing once again an overcharge from Skerlec. I called Skerlec and Mark Sayre multiple times and documented each call. It took awhile to finally get a return call and when I did it was still frustrating. Mark Sayre was aware of the exact residence I was talking about but when I asked him what they did for so many hours on the first job he couldn't give me an answer. When I asked what they did for 38 hours to thaw the pipes he again couldn't give an answer but said he would look into it and get back to me. He never did. He told me he would be talking to the actual guy who did most of the work there that day and would get back to me and let me know and we could set up a meeting at the residence to go over everything and discussion possible remedies. I never heard from him again. I called him on 2 separate occasions and got no answer. I also spoke with Eric O'Connor of River Communities Fiduciary who told me any billing issues would have to be taken up with Skerlec. This company or again at least Mark Sayre should not be trusted and took advantage of a situation to overbill and underperform knowing no questions would be asked and the bill would be paid by the Trust. I photographed everything that was on the invoice and still welcome a call back finally from Sayre(its been 3 months since we last spoke) to go over all this work. I will say that I did on 2 occasions make contact with Mark Skerlec(when I reached the secretary she mistakenly gave me his number) and he was easy to speak with but couldn't answer my questions as Mark Sayre was the foreman on my job site. read more

We had a large demo/renovation of an old pool and deck area in our back yard. New concrete sidewalks and fencing were installed. The supervisor and workers were great to work with. They were knowledgeable, hard working and great at cleaning up the work site every day. We highly recommend Skerlec Contracting and look forward to working with them again in the near future. read more

I had the entire outside of my house renovated last year and I am so pleased with the detail to work that was done, the friendliness of the men who were here each day, and the communication I had with the lead guy so I knew what to expect from day to day. I am also pleased with the fact that once they checked out my insulation and determined that what I had was sufficient, they explained how I would be saving money on my project by not replacing something that was still in good condition! read more

We used Skerlec Contracting to remove a deck. They did an excellent job. The deck was a lower deck -- about 750 sf in size. They removed the entire deck, stairs connecting it to the upper deck, replaced the opening for the stairs with uprights and railing and cleaned up the work site. They did this in little over one day. They arrived on the site as scheduled and were very professional. I considered their price for the project very reasonable. I would certainly recommend them to anyone with a contractor/building project. read more

We contracted with Skerlec to do our gutters, soffit and fascia, because the online reviews at the time (circa 2012) were good and they had been in business for 40 years. However, it appears that only the sales team and upper management have 40 years of experience, because they sent us a young man who hadn't even lived 40 years (let alone having 40 years of experience), who had never supervised a job, and who had never worked on a split-level house. I'm not blaming the young man; he was a nice fellow and I think he tried to give us his best. But it just wasn't good enough. The salesman who really might have had 40 years of experience never spent more than 5 minutes viewing the work in progress, even after our complaints. I was told that this salesman was "just" a salesman, despite the fact that his business card reads "PROJECT COORDINATOR and Sales," which indicates that he is supposed to do more than just take our money. I understand that the owner is very active in public service and devotes much time and money to the community. This isn't an issue. The issue is that my husband and I did not put $12,000 up as an act of charity: we expected a job that was worth $12,000! How this company managed to get a "Best of the Valley" in ANY category is beyond me, as they TOTALLY SUCK! Do yourself a favor: DON'T contract with them! read more
