I took bids from multiple contractors to demo our existing 8' x 33' deck and 8' x 20' overhang. It…read morewas in horrible shape, and (worse) had been anchored directly to our house by the prior owners. Chad and HMC were the most reasonable bid for the scope of work and my wife and I could not be more pleased with the results! Demo took only a couple days, and (once the construction crew was assembled), construction took less than a week, including the new roof. The new dimensions are 14'x20', and it's a fantastic living space. My girls love being outside on it. And, to boot, I've gotten compliments not only from neighbors, but from two other contractors who have come to my place for unrelated jobs. Those pros complemented the quality construction, especially the double edging and the blocking under the support beams. Go with HMC and you will be so happy you did!

I don't know how the other positive reviews came about, because our experience with HMC Contracting…read morewas pretty bad. We had our enclosed patio redone... It took forever, and once we were in the process I couldn't wait till it was over. It felt like the Three Stooges were sent to do the work. The painting had to be redone several times -- their "team" clearly had no idea what they were doing. We had to have them rebuild the door at least twice, because the quality was truly subpar. Six months later, the door is already showing age (see photo). They were careless with the space (inside the patio, and in the surrounding garden). They never cleaned up after themselves. I had to entirely cut back one of the plants behind the patio because it was so badly broken. I'd find nails and debris around outside that I would have to throw away; they brought plastic, but barely covered our patio furniture (so I did that myself); and they broke one of our side tables. Attention to detail was absent -- I've attached photos of just SOME of the trim corners that do not match up -- there are gaps instead. Chad and his son Adam were nice enough, but we were paying for something that should've looked excellent in the end. It looks OKAY (if you don't really look at the details), and it was no fun getting there. I would absolutely suggest using a different contractor.

The fence around our driveway and parking area was not the best quality but was in good shape when…read morewe purchased our home 11 years ago, but in the fall of 2019, it needed to be replaced. Mark Dolan responded promptly to my inquiry and gave me an estimate within a few days of my initial call. He was friendly and knowledgeable and, since his estimate was reasonable, we hired him for the job and were placed on his schedule within a week or two. His crew arrived on time and worked diligently throughout the day, almost completing the project in one day. They returned the following morning to finish up before lunch. They removed the old fence and took care of the disposal. What they installed was a 5 foot semi-private fence with two gates, one a single entry, the other a double gate for vehicle passage. After completion, the crew cleaned up quite thoroughly. This fence is much better quality than the one that preceded it, a world of difference. We could tell the old fence had been built by a novice, but it became starkly evident after our new fence was finished. The hinges and gate latches are examples of the superior quality and finish of this fence. It has now been two months since the fence was installed, and we still couldn't be any more pleased! Thanks, Mark, for a job well done!

I used JD Land Development while they were out here in California. The owner/contractor/carpenter…read morewas absolutely the greatest choice we could have ever made! He was responsive to all of our questions and requests, his bid was less than 80% of the other contractors, and finished the job a week early and under budget. We added a bathroom & bedroom to the first floor for my father and could not believe how great the job turned out. His crew/subs were here early or on time, not one mess was left behind every single day, and would personally go over what was completed and asked for input at the end of each week. We were gone one day when the extremely expensive tile we picked out and bought for the bathroom but he sent his tile subcontractor to another job because when he started the tile it didn't look good to him in terms of color and size. He left a voicemail, text and email, all with photos and we were so happy he had stopped the tile from being installed. He also saw how much we paid for the tile and suggested an alternate tile that was more than half the price for both the tile and labor due to the size of the tile. I looked at the review left by another person who had used them for another job and I'm having a hard time believing what she had to say. BTW, Miguel, the partner/contractor only recently completed this work for us has a great reputation for the work he has completed on every job out here in California. We checked with the people he listed as references and even visited with a family he had worked with and got to look at the work completed and got to ask questions about his work. This family gave such a positive reference that we signed with him that da

7/29/25 We hired Armstrong Construction to build our deck,…read moreand I am leaving this review as a last resort after numerous attempts to have issues corrected have been ignored. Shortly after the build was complete, we discovered several cracked boards, spindles, etc. We called, and about three weeks later, they sent a technician to make repairs. I spoke with him directly and made two things very clear: 1) To please use the exact same higher-end lumber we had paid for, and 2) To perform a thorough inspection of the entire deck to find any other issues, as he is the expert and we wanted this to be a one-time fix. He left without a word. Furthermore, it took me only a few moments to find several additional cracked boards and spindles that his professional inspection had completely overlooked. To make matters worse, the boards he did replace were a cheaper, different type of wood. For over a month now, we have tried to get this resolved. We have made three additional calls, sent an email, and a Facebook message. We received one call back promising a visit that never happened. Our Facebook message was seen and they asked if we had called the office, when I confirmed we had, there was no further communication. Our other calls and messages have not been addressed. My call today went unanswered with no option to leave a voicemail. This lack of follow-through also extends to promises made by the owner, who was supposed to conduct both a pre-build and a post-build inspection to ensure quality. Neither of these inspections ever took place. Disappointingly, this brand new deck feels no more solid or of higher quality than the 25-year-old deck it replaced. We are now left with mismatched lumber, unresolved cracks, and a company that refuses to communicate. I absolutely do not recommend working with this company. A final note: I fully expect this public review will finally get a response. Be aware that this review reflects our entire experience of poor service, shoddy repair work, and being ignored for over a month. For that reason, I will not be changing my 1-star rating or my recommendation, regardless of their response or eventual repairs. This review will stand as is to inform future customers. The only update I will make is to note if and when the repairs are finally completed correctly. ************************************ Update 7/29/25 16:24 (The company responded to my initial review and can be found on Google. The following was my response to them) Thank you for your response and explanation. First and foremost, I am sincerely sorry to hear of the losses your family has endured. I wish you all good health and fortitude during what is clearly a difficult time. While I appreciate that context, it's important to correct several key points in your statement so that my original review is understood accurately. The issue has never been about the natural "checking" of lumber. As I made clear in my initial emails, which included photos and videos, I'm somewhat aware of how wood naturally cures. This was never the complaint. The problems I have tried to get resolved are about poor workmanship: boards that are split and broken where nails were driven through, chunks of wood hanging off, and spindles that are split because they were nailed incorrectly. To your point about issues being "pointed out," when your technician was here for the repair visit, I not only identified these flaws but, as stated in my original review, I specifically instructed him to inspect the entire deck. I deferred to his professional expertise to find all obvious issues, which were not done. And thank you for the recommendations on how to fill the cracks. Regarding the final walkthrough, your account is incorrect. Coby and Eli did not do a walkthrough with my wife and me. My wife was in meetings all day and was not present. A walkthrough was conducted with only one of your team members and me, a fact I can confirm with security camera footage from that day. It was on that day that I went to the bank to get cash to pay the final balance while he waited. To be clear on the timeline: Yes, someone came for the initial repair 2-3 weeks after my first call. However, there has been no visit since then, despite my four additional phone calls to your office. A few weeks ago, I spoke directly with Coby, who said he would send one of his brothers out to look at the deck. Two weeks passed, and no one came or called. My subsequent calls went to a female employee who transferred me to Coby's voicemail twice, but I never received a return call. I understand that your phones were down today, which prevented me from calling to resolve the issue one last time before my review. However, this does not account for the weeks of unreturned calls that preceded this incident. My review stands as a factual account of our experience with the quality of the repair work and the complete lack of communication from your company. **Update in photos, out of space here*
