He did a quick design for me at our initial meeting and later did an official one to submit to my HOA. I spoke to half a dozen other contractors who all priced about the same for the work. What sold me was Steve's portfolio and how up front he was with everything. Not once did he try to sell my on something I didn't need or go beyond what I was asking for. We decided on a wood deck to match the majority of the homes in our HOA, and because we just like the look better. From the beginning of his crew showing up till the last piece of trash picked up they were extremely friendly and FAST!! They started on a Tuesday and finished by Friday for a 24'x16' deck that was 6' off the ground on uneven ground. Finish product was even better than the graphic design of it. Hands down 100% glad I went with PowerHouse. Even neighbors and friends have already commented on well of job they did and wished their contractor was just as good. If you have any doubts just invite Steve over for a chat and you will see for yourself your money will definitely go the length and you will not be disappointed.

They are the total package; attentive, courteous, thorough, skilled, meticulous and fast! From beginning to end our experience was a pleasurable one. The end result went above and beyond our expectations. We bought a foreclosure 12 years ago and have been steadily updating everything on the interior and exterior. Never has any of our remodel jobs gone as smoothly, nor has any exceeded our expectations the way this project did. I would hire this team again without hesitation.

I spent more than 3 hours with the PWI representative. He came up with an estimate and I mentioned…read morea competing one. He instantly produced one in that range, citing a 30 day window as the reason for the discount. It seemed to me that his spreadsheet generated the new estimate to match the information I provided from the other company. Then he offered a substantial discount if I allowed PWI to take before and after photos, put a sign on my lawn, or post a review on social media. It seemed too good to be true, so I asked three times if I incurred any legal obligations or commitments by signing; he replied "no"each time. After signing, he informed me this agreement required a significant and immediate deposit. This deposit is refundable only by initiating Virginia's three day cancellation rule, which seems onerous, and obviously, includes considerable time pressure. I ripped up the agreement.

Here is a review I also left on google -…read more I reached out for a quote on a deck restoration/re-decking project based on the company's strong reviews on both the Trex website and Google. The representative was on time, personable, and clearly knowledgeable. However, after spending over two and a half hours reviewing their presentation and proposal, the quoted price came in at 70% higher than the average of four other estimates we had already received -- all from companies also vetted through Trex and with solid reputations. Even with the time-sensitive incentives (13% off for signing on the spot, plus another 7% off if they could use our project for before/after marketing), their price was still 45% higher than the others. During the presentation, the rep proudly mentioned that 93% of their customers sign immediately after the appointment. I can only assume those folks didn't get multiple quotes. To be clear, I believe Prince William Home Improvement is a solid company and would likely do a great job. I just can't justify paying 45-70% more for a project when other equally reputable companies are offering comparable quality for significantly less.

I'm leaving an HONEST review here, please consider your options. This review is based on my…read moreexperience (which reflect experiences from others on here). Background: Infinite paved my driveway on 04.10.23. Infinite suggested that we do an overlay, to lay 3 inches of asphalt over my old driveway because the foundation was still good. Miles, the salesman who sold us on the job, ensured that there would be no water drainage issue. However, due to the new pavement being higher than my cement at my side door entrance, there is indeed a water issue where water and dirt is collecting with no path to flow out (photos attached). I tried reaching out to Infinite via phone calls but no one was picking up, so I had reported the issue on Yelp. MIles and team came to my home shortly after I posted the review to look at the situation. They agreed that this part of the driveway was overlooked. So, they provided me with a plan to rectify the issue (photo attached). They also asked me if I would be kind enough to remove the Yelp review. I agreed and was more than happy to remove the review since I appreciated their followup and their plan to rectify the problem. I was flexible with the timeline to fix my driveway as long as it was reasonable and Infinite would communicate with me effectively. Fast forward to today, we are now in a situation where I can't get ahold of Miles and I have no answers from Infinite. I have given them a while to get their situation together and respond to me before I came back to yelp. It's been several months (it's now July) and they haven't responded to my emails. From the screen shot you can see that Miles reads my texts but chooses to ignore me... Could someone please provide answers? As a customer who kindly removed the Yelp review and was willing to be flexible with the timeline to fix my driveway, all I want is to simply resolve the problem per the plan that MIles provided (photo attached) and to have effective communication. Fast forward to today, we are now in a situation where I can't get ahold of Miles and I have no answers from Infinite. Could someone please provide answers? What happened on 04.24? If there is uncertainty with a date to fix my driveway, please communicate that with me. As a customer who kindly removed the Yelp review and was willing to be flexible with the timeline to fix my driveway, all I want is to simply resolve the problem per the plan that MIles provided (photo attached) and to have effective communication. I have a incredibly dangerous water issue, where water and dirt settlement collects at the cement in front of my door due to the driveway being higher. I had to push out the water and dirt dozens of times already and I'm not looking to have this issue in the winter when things get iced up. This is their doing. If anyone would like to discuss their quality and what went down, feel free to contact me. Heck, you can come to my driveway and view for yourself. Please be aware. I have spoken to others who experience similar situations with their customer service and quality. Infinite, if you're reading, you need to fix the problem and honor your promise. I'm tired of waiting. You've taken advantage of me and my family, and you should be accountable for your predatory tactics. If you want to be an ounce respected as a company, you should put customers first and rectify the problems you've created.

Buyer Beware! This is a scam company. I regret hiring them every time I pull into my driveway…read more Read the reviews and don't do business with Peter Hardy or any of his con-artist friends. I had a very similar experience to the rest of the folks who posted a 1-star review. Peter was soliciting in my neighborhood last spring and said he could replace my existing asphalt driveway with a larger concrete one for $5K. Red flag #1- he quoted half the price of other legitimate concrete contractors. Red flag #2- I didn't find any reviews about them. Check it out- the oldest review on Yelp right now is from Mar 2023. They must do an annual scrub of negative reviews which are likely the ones they get. I signed a contract and Peter wrote on it that no deposit was required. The evening before work was to be started, Peter texted that he needed $1K deposit and he wanted the check made out in his name. I agreed...I know, big mistake. That was Red flag #3. Red flag #4 When Peter gave me the original quote, I pointed out the lines where I wanted the new driveway to be expanded to. He said he'd come out with his crew and mark them. I saw his markers when I came home and noticed that they were quite a bit off from what we had discussed. He said it'd cost an additional $1K for "materials" to expand the driveway back to what we had originally agreed on. Red flag #5- Just like other folks have experienced, Peter's crew ripped up my driveway into a big pile of rubble and then demanded an additional $3000 to finish the job. Of course I was very upset and knew at that point that I had been scammed but the real kicker is that the driveway is crumbling and cracking 10 months after it has been installed. Peter doesn't respond to my text messages and the numbers listed on the contract aren't in service anymore. I've filed a complaint with the BBB and am posting this review in the hopes that others can save themselves from a very expensive mistake.

Oscar is a horrible businessman. I hired him to waterproof the underside of my deck…read more He never showed up the first day that he scheduled. No phone call. He then finally showed 2 days later with 2 workers and asked me to borrow a ladder since he forgot his. Workers wouldn't show until 12pm and sometime they wouldn't show up until 2pm. There were days they didn't even show up. The workers were not clean or organized. They never cleaned up the site after they were done. Fast forward to completion of the project. It looks like crap. The gutter leaks and the workers butchered the soffits. Oscar said he would fix it but would never show up. He promised me that they will be out on Monday 10/24. They never showed up and no phone call. no response from Oscar. I reached out to Oscar this morning and he said he was sorry. I told him I am going to hire someone to fix it and hold him responsible for the payment. His responses was "sorry, I'll pay! I asked him does this mean your not going to fix it. No response. So I'm forced to go to yelp and complain. This was my wife's project that she wanted done. Unfortunately, she passed before she got a chance to have it done. I spent a year looking for the right contractor. This is the only time I have ever had an issue with a contractor. I'm not big on complaining but this company is horrible. I will mot recommend OG construction. I have plenty of pictures, texts and emails to prove that OG construction is a horrible company

They poured a concrete patio over the high voltage electrical lines which I understand doesn't meet code. Our contract clearly states that Dream Builders will install drainage as required. After the first hard rain storm, see photos and video, Dream Builders salesman Rob, claimed that no one could foresee the amount of water that would drain to the patio. Looking at the photos, it is very easy to see that the downhill grade of the parking lot comes toward the patio. Yet a professional deck builder stated that it couldn't be predicted because they did not want to pay to make it right. Water has been inches from our door during several rainstorms. Late this afternoon, Dream Builders emailed us and stated that they would not be completing the job and offered an unfair partial refund for a fence and incomplete drainage along with the mess documented by Tom Keogh. Please examine the photos and video and form your own opinion. Update #1 We received a text message from the Dream Builders Project Manager stating that they would come fill in the holes that were left open and clean up the mud. See the attached last 3 photos. Stay away from Dream Builders at all cost! If everything goes well, everything will work out with Dream Builders. As soon as any problem arises they will cease communication, stall and attempt to turn the issue on the customer while asking the customer to pay for their mistake. After severing a high voltage wire, it took 6 months for Dream Builders to make an insurance claim and get the electrical fixed. The owner (Nick) and salesman (Rob) have zero moral courage and did not show up on our site since June of 2023. You would think the owner would be concerned about making things right but look at the last 3 photos, those were taken post cleanup on 15 Dec 23.

For those who don't want to read this whole thing: We don't recommend dream builders and suggest…read moreyou use a different company. We hired dream builders to replace the back porch on our house. We wanted to move from wood to the more permanent and long lasting Trex building materials. We also wanted stairs to the ground which we did not have on our porch. We were thrilled with the initial presentation. We hired them for, what was for us, a pretty large project. We were very disappointed and wish we had gone with a different company. - dream builders does not employ the workers. Our project was sub-contracted to a carpenter who sub-contracted to the workers he brought every day. On any given day, we had no idea who was coming to our house. We rarely saw an employee of dream builders. - In the demolition stage of our project, the crew ripped through both our underground downspouts and our sprinkler system requiring both to be repairs. I was informed that the contract requires me to put flags were all of those are located throughout the yard. Since I didn't, they are not responsible for the damage. I have no earthly idea where all of the sprinkler lines are laid throughout the yard. I find it hard to believe the workers couldn't stop when they felt a little resistance so they could determine if the item was important and fragile. It seemed lazy and unprofessional. It also seemed like a fine print scam. - We made an adjustment to our plan as the project got started (moving where the stairs reach the ground). We were provided a picture of what that adjustment would look like. When the stairs were about 1/2 way done, it looked nothing like what we expected. The stairs now were going to terminate right in the middle of our patio opening. We protested and we were told that the picture couldn't look exactly like the finished project; it was just an estimate. ??!!?? Are you serious? Even if that is the case, which I don't believe, we were never informed that such a result was a possibility. We were then charged more for them to correct what I fully believe was their error. Though they came down some in the cost they intended to charge us, from this point on we felt uneasy about the project and again scammed. - Included in our project were lights for the stairs to illuminate the steps. The finished project looked ridiculously amateurish. The wires were strung up under the wood panels with simple nails and remained totally visible. The power box was simply placed on a couple of nails driven into our siding. Nothing was wired into the house or stored in such a way as to look nice. It looked like I could have done it myself on a weekend project. Again, we protested and were told that the job they did was standard procedure. They don't employ an electrician and what we were asking for was both unrealistic and expensive. For the size (and cost) of our project, it deserved to look better. - Speaking of the electric box, the lights were merely plugged into our outdoor outlet. I asked of the safety of such an arrangement and was surprised it could even pass code. I was again told it was standard procedure. I was later told (by a contractor I trust a whole lot more than these guys) that the arrangement was neither safe nor up to code. He fixed it for us while doing another project (free of charge, BTW). - We had the wood posts under our deck wrapped to look nicer. Some of the posts were a bit taller than the wraps however and the wraps were not secured; they could slide up and down. - the project did not actually meet code initially. The carpenter did not install 2 x 8 beams under the bottom of the porch for extra stabilization. This was corrected but it makes me wonder where else they cut corners. Speaking of which, while building the upper landing for our stairs, we saw a small chunk of wood fly off as a result of being hit with a nail gun. Rather than replacing the board that now had a piece missing, the worker just kept on nailing. Agin, we were assured the piece was not structurally required and nothing was wrong with the board. In the end, the porch and stairs are completed and look adequate structurally. I have little doubt that they will last and I have no concern with my family being out there. That's the end of the good news. The process cost far more than we thought it should have for the work they did. The communication and interaction with the company was substandard. I did not appreciate having our project subbed to someone who then subbed it out again. We felt cheated out of money for their design flaw. The accessories look no better than doing it myself (we hire other people for a reason). We paid them a significant amount of money (at least for us) and it constantly seemed like they were trying to cut corners and maximize their profit instead of focusing on a great finished project. I wish we had gone with someone else.
