We were concerned about a strong odor emanating from our laundry room, so we contacted Ye Old Town…read moreSweep. We suspected the dryer vent was slowing the exhaust, posing a potential risk. It had been many years since it was cleaned. The technician arrived slightly early and got straight to work. He seemed knowledgeable and had all the necessary tools and supplies. After getting under the house, he quickly determined that the odor was coming from the laundry area, not the dryer vent. It was the foul smell of a skunk. The dryer vent was indeed in need of cleaning; reassembling the ductwork, he used screws and tape, so I feel it's very serviceable. The gentleman was considerate and flexible because I asked him to give our wood insert chimney a mid-season cleaning. Having a strong draw is essential since it provides over 60% of our heat. So thanks to the skunk, we now have more efficient facilities and a new resource. I will put the Ye Old Town Sweep in my contacts for their service next year.

What why? 2 scuffed wires, ok so will tape them up and proceed with testing to find what is wrong. Tec. stated I'm not here to repair only inspect LOL. No testing of anything, no diagnostic NOTHING! Then wanted payment-For what you did nothing!!! Never seen anything like this! Where we come from you have to actually do something to get paid, seriously. Would have had no problem paying if either a diagnostic/trouble shoot or repair was done. In this case nothing! So, when he left still didn't know the problem and had to replace the augur, he broke the wire off. Wow!!! Can't believe they didn't want to make this right as we tried and hated to leave a bad review. Sad! As the owner was out and does not even know what the employee did which was lit. nothing and had he been here would have been applaud! Lit. spent seconds looking at it moving the wires and then debated for the entire time to at least do something, anything!

My experience with Combat Construction started out promising but ended up quite frustrating…read more Jesse, the owner, seemed very friendly and gave me a really reasonable bid for a new fence and short retaining wall. When they put the fence in, it looked great with the exception of one 8' section that was not even with the rest (it sat 3-4" higher than the adjacent sections with a 3-4" gap below). I asked Jesse why this had been done and ended up asking for it to be fixed, which really seemed to annoy him. There were a couple of other inconsistencies with what Jesse said he was going to do and what he actually ended up doing. For example, he had said that there would be a 9.5" grass board along the bottom of the fence, but he used a 6" one instead. He also told me that they would be applying a clear coat sealant on the fence and instead he put on a "cedar" color stain. When I asked him about the color, he also seemed to get perturbed. The fence ended up looking great, so I didn't mind that he used a stain, I just didn't understand why he specifically told me he was going to use a clear coat and then used a colored stain. I was also lucky that my neighbors, who were sharing the cost, didn't mind the changes. They then tried to install my retaining wall directly on the dirt/mud in my yard with a corrugated pipe sitting on the dirt behind it. When I told Jesse that I thought that the wall needed to be installed on a compacted rock base to be even and avoid settling and that the French drain would need to sit in rock or have a water barrier between it and the wall to function correctly, he became very upset and told me that "this job was becoming a real hassle." He argued that he had bid for a decorative retaining wall only (not what I had asked for) and that he was already losing money on my project. I found this to be really odd since he was the one that had written the bid. There was no way I was going to pay them to install the wall and French drain incorrectly, so after a heated argument, I ended up telling Jesse I would pay for the materials that they had already had delivered to my home and put the retaining wall and drain in myself. There were a couple of other sloppy workmanship issues I noticed once they had finished. They used a sprayer to apply the stain to the fence and ended up spraying onto my house siding. They didn't replace the corner posts at the back of my property, so there are still old, rotten posts holding up the new fence at the corners. They also left quite a mess when hauling away the old fence, including dropping nails in my driveway and my neighbor's. A few of the boards they installed have since warped or split, causing two so far to detach after only a little over a month. Combat Construction offers a warranty on the fence, but I have opted to fix the problems myself rather than deal with Jesse again. It was really disappointing that they were trying to cut corners on my project and that Jesse apparently felt it was unreasonable for me to question him. The crew doing the work for Jesse were really friendly and professional and the fence ended up looking fantastic for the most part. Based on the deviations between what was communicated to me and what was actually done, as well as Jesse's attitude when asked to do the work correctly, I would not hire them again or recommend them to anyone else.
