My 2 quote requests on Thumbtack went ignored. But, I was messaged right away from Ilia asking if we needed help. He always communicated with us and advised us on some low maintenance plants. I have no interest in gardening. But I wanted my property to look nice again. I just want to thank Gerardo and his team for making my yard beautiful! We were so impressed with the quality of work that we tipped the crew after work was done.

For us, it was a gnarly, tall, dead, poison ivy covered, rotting tree that in my mind was ready to fall on my car or roof. My experience with A-Alpha clocks in at a 3.5 stars, with some ups and downs, and eventually rounded up for customer service. I was shocked by some initial quotes on just how much it is to not only get a tree down but remove the wood. Shocked. Like $1500/$1600. Gross. We saw the positive reviews from A-Alpha that were totally confirmed when I met with the owner, Calvin. Calvin is super friendly, super responsible and has more reasonable rates. I visited with him and requested a certificate of insurance which he was able to provide for my property faster than I could get the words out -- a great sign. He penciled us in during the busy season (spring) and had a crew out two days later chopping and chipping away. The whole thing was done in an afternoon. Now I have to say, I was bummed when I went outside and saw some massive holes in my yard and a large cracked piece of sidewalk. The crew told me they'd come back and fix that the next day which didn't happen specifically then, but Calvin stayed in frequent contact to make sure they'd make it right. He was a upset with the crew and insisted that this should never happen, that a mistake was made and again that they'd get it handled quickly. They did. They also filled the holes with topsoil and grass seed which I'll have to monitor to get it growing again. It kind of stinks because with the older neighborhood I'm in, the concrete doesn't come close to matching and sticks out like a sore thumb, but really there's nothing anyone can do about that. Spending a ton of money on something like this is never fun, nor is having something go a bit wrong with the project, but when someone makes it right that goes a long way for me. If I hadn't ever heard from them again I'd be livid, but this case was pretty much the opposite. That being said, I hope to hell I never need them again because parting ways with a lot of money to have a tree go bye-bye is not one of life's finer moments!

I explained the situation with homeowner insurance giving me notice of cancellation in 4 weeks if trees not trimmed. He promised he could get it done in that time frame. Had me scheduled for approximately 2 weeks later. Cancelled on me twice because if possibility of rain. It did not rain. It was evident by 8 am it was not going to rain. We were scheduled again and was canceled because " a worker had other plans". I. had to repeatedly contact him to get it rescheduled. He finally told me he was going on vacation and could not get it done. When I asked him about meeting the insurance companies time line he sent a text that said "I can't guarantee anything at this point over a week away. I will call you when I get back, and if you still need it done, I'll be more than happy to take care of you." I ended up signing with another tree company who completed the job in 5 days. Don't waste your time with this company.

The Schonbergs have done everything from promptly cleaning up storm damage to removing dead trees and grinding stumps to pruning and removing dead branches that are over 100 feet in the air. Most recently we thought we had to lose a mature maple tree, but John came up with a pruning plan and the tree is now thriving. They are reasonably priced, and have an experienced crew. We couldn't be more satisfied with their work. Mike & Barb Malone

At the time of construction, a sprinkler line 6" underground was cut while digging a hole for one of the eight piers required for the project. The city building inspector satisfactorily passed all eight piers stating that they were all 36" deep. After two years, I noticed that water was coming out from under one of the piers because of the cut sprinkler line. The water eroded a small cavern under that pier and revealed that the pier was only 6" deep (a short pier). I brought this problem to Adam's attention on 3/16/24. In the past 5 months, he has yet to inspect the problem after having been sent multiple emails, photos, and videos explaining and illustrating the problem. All I have ever wanted was for him to honor his 10-year warranty on his work by fixing the short pier problem, repair the cut sprinkler line, and prove that the 7 other piers in the project are the correct depth. Phone calls to the office go to voicemail that states that all questions and concerns are to be emailed to Dynamic Decksteriors' sales department. The voicemail box is full and is unable to accept messages. His 10-year warranty is useless when he doesn't respond to emails, nobody answers the office phone, and the voicemail is full. Based on his inability/unwillingness to inspect the problem since being notified of the problem on 3/16/24, I can only draw the conclusion that he has no intention of honoring his 10-year warranty. This is the impetus for this review. I have contacted the Johnson County Licensing Review Board (CLRB) to initiate a complaint against Dynamic Decksteriors for failing to fix this building code violation issue. This process is pending. We also filed a complaint with the BBB on 4/8/24. The complaint was closed on 5/31/24 by the BBB after Adam never responded to the complaint. While we are happy with the rest of the deck that encountered the typical problems, and fixed, during construction, we can not recommend Dynamic Decksteriors for your decking needs. It is because we are happy with the rest of the deck is the only thing preventing a 1-star rating.
