    a view of a deck railing

    Keith saved the day! We had drama with a different contractor who almost ran off with our money so we turned to Keith to build our deck. He was fast and efficient with permit submission and scheduling our deck build. I fully expected to have to wait a long time to have our deck installed but Keith fit us into the schedule in such a short time period. Not only that but the deck itself is beautiful and they did a fantastic job. If you're looking to get a deck done, go with A & L.

    We went to a party at my boss's house and complimented them on the really nice screened-in porch they have. My boss's wife raved about how great their contractor was and told us all about what a great experience they had, and then they gave me their A&L Construction business card. My wife and I weren't sure how much it would cost or if we could afford it, so we contacted Keith from A&L Construction, and he came out and did an estimate for us last summer (summer of 2018). Then we had a ballpark amount of money we needed to save up, so we started setting money aside to do it later. Fast forward to February 2019, we were starting to think about our son's high school graduation and wanting to have a graduation party for him, and wouldn't it be nice if we could get a new screened-in porch done in time for his party. I contacted Keith, half expecting him to say, sorry we're booked / too busy and/or, sorry we need to redo your estimate and it's going to cost more. I was wrong on BOTH counts. He honored the initial estimate he did for us last summer, and he said no problem, they could get it done in time for our graduation party. Much to my surprise, they are very different from other contractors in that they want ZERO deposit and don't expect you to pay a DIME until the project is completely DONE. I think a lot of other contractors want you to pay a deposit, and then they want full payment when the job is like 80 to 90% done, and then they never come back to finish the last 10% little odds and ends. Not with A&L. They completely finished the job before we wrote them ONE check for the entire amount. I interacted with Keith doing all the paperwork and submitting the modification request to our HOA modifications subcommittee for approval. Keith took care of getting all the county building permits. Keith wanted to start pretty fast after the building permits came through. He called me on a Thursday night to say the building permits were approved and he wanted to start work on Monday. We spent Friday and Saturday getting all the stuff off our deck. The guy who actually did all the manual labor was Earl, and he was awesome. This is all he does is go around building fabulous screened-in porches all the time. I was very glad I made a point to meet with Earl face-to-face on Saturday morning before he started work on Monday so we could make sure everything we wanted was accurately captured in the contract paperwork Keith gave him. Earl is FAST. I think he took about 6 or 7 business days to completely demolish and remove our old deck and completely build our new screened-in porch. We have neighbors down the street who started building a screened-in porch weeks before us, and they were still working on building it weeks after ours was done. Of note, the estimate and construction with A&L was all for the physical porch itself. Keith recommended a great guy named Miguel to come do electrical work, install a ceiling fan and lights and power outlets for us. I guess Miguel works with them a lot, and he's familiar with how Earl builds the decks and where to route the wires, etc. You will want to factor in the electrical work into your budget though. Our screened-in porch is my new favorite room of the house. It really did add a room to our house. We're out there all the time now. I love sitting out there at twilight, watching the fireflies and listening to the frogs in the nearby pond. I'm VERY pleased with this investment and VERY pleased with the responsiveness and great service by Keith and Earl.

Gerber responded very quickly, was prompt in coming out and telling me what he thought I should do. While he was there, I asked if they did stonework on walkways and patios as that was also part of what I needed. The work they did on the house and the walks was excellent. The team was great to work around, completed everything beyond expectations. Would recommend!

They delivered excellent craftsmanship and top notch design experience at a fair price. I initially hired Gerber to tune-up all my existing pavers, add a new paver driveway, and add some new path lighting. Adding the new driveway was somewhat of a challenge as the adjacent paver sidewalks were initially constructed over 10 years ago. So, Gerber was able to find a great match to my existing pavers and masterfully piece the new driveway together in such a fashion where old and new appear seamless. Amazing!!! During the process, we learned that his team also offered landscaping. So as the hardscaping and lighting was coming to an end, his team met with us for a design consultation. Both Kathy and Katherine brought some great experience/knowledge to assess our current situation and offered wonderful ideas to the overall design. We loved what we heard and proceeded with the landscaping work immediately. In the end, we could not be happier! And we look forward to using Gerber and his team should we have any additional hardscaping, landscaping, or lighting needs in the future.

He took over an hour to measure everything and sent me the lumber quote he received so that I was fully informed, then we talked labor. He would point out problematic areas (like rotting framing) and would ask me if I wanted to have it replaced rather than just covering it up with the new surface. He did an amazing job that had my mom's tenants and the neighbors complementing the work and I felt the price was very reasonable. Based on that job, I brought him out to take a look at my townhouse to possibly replace the siding and he suggested sanding, priming and painting instead due to the price of replacement. They sanded almost every square inch of it, primed it (in some areas twice) with a peeling paint primer that is like glue to fill in gaps and keep the rest of the old paint from peeling, and then put a double coat over everything. When they finished, I was surprised to find that they had power washed our patio, porch, and front half-height fence and even painted the fence though we never talked about doing any of that work. I felt compelled to pay him extra. Deck Video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wELQYf0YGKY
