The folks who did the work were professional and very talented. The customer service before, during and after the job was beyond fantastic! They're coming back to do another job for us (deck work) and if they hit this one out of the park, we'll give them more work after that! If you're in the market for a fence or deck, call these folks!

From our very first meeting with Cliff (the company owner!) to the final walk-through with Sam, the project manager, the experience was exceptional every step of the way. The communication throughout the entire process was outstanding. Not once did we feel anything less than a top priority. Texts were answered within an hour, and emails were always returned within hours. That level of responsiveness gave us complete confidence and peace of mind. Mike, Pavlo, and Wade were the primary builders, and they were phenomenal. They treated us like rock stars during the entire three-and-a-half-week build. Mike, the lead carpenter, took the time to explain every phase of the project in detail, which my wife and I truly appreciated. Whitmer Decks removed our old deck and built a beautiful new 14x12 screened porch, along with a 10x10 deck and staircase. I'm no professional photographer, but the results speak for themselves--we are absolutely thrilled. We can't wait for warmer weather so we can fully enjoy our stunning new space. The craftsmanship is simply incredible. These guys are true artists. Every time we look at the work Whitmer Decks completed, we're blown away all over again. Thank you to Cliff, Sam, Mike, Pavlo, Wade, Keen--and Spark Roofing as well. You are all amazing, and we will not hesitate to give our highest recommendation to anyone who asks. I want to mention that their estimate/upgrade process was incredibly easy and actually fun to work with! Each upgrade came with about 5-10 photos that were VERY helpful in envisioning what the final product would actually look like! With gratitude, Shawn Purcell

Waited nearly two weeks for the quote and get a call they don't "replace" and confirmed they said they only do new construction per the "manager". Missed HOA deadline for May due to waiting on this final quote to make my decision to submit the application. Frustrating.

That is, unless I had my deck replaced and assorted other work done all within 30 days. We were already going to do the work, but not yet...but now the job became time critical. I was in a desperate fix. It would have been easy for any contractor to try to gouge someone in my situation. Elements not only gave us a reasonable price, they did the job very well and finished it with days to spare. They had interest-free financing available for us to bridge the gap while we refinanced our home to pay for the work. They were even willing to talk to my insurance company/State Board of Insurance if it would have helped. In other words, they owned my problem without any obligation to do so. Home Contractors are famous for being flaky and doing crummy work. It's a horrible industry. Elements Home Remodeling seems to have a great business model. "Do good work and be obvious about doing so. The contrast will bring in business". I cannot recommend EHR enough. Really.

I scheduled their visit for 9am but they jumped over my fences around 8am. They proceeded with the tarp and severely damaged my sidings/window frames and hammered large nails all over my deck which seemed to be an experiment because they weren't sure if those nails would work on vinyl siding. The two man were also coming in and out of my kitchen door (connected to deck) inside the house to see if my windows were covered or not WITHOUT knocking/permission. Made me feel very uncomfortable. Pricing - the owner said it'll be a few hundred when HE STOPPED BY in person after evaluating the house but hit us with a bill that was over a thousand dollars. This quote was for urgent service however, he tried billing us much more. Inconsistency occurred throughout the interaction. PLEASE do yourself a favor and hire someone else. I informed that he'll be paid once insurance pays or he can directly claim with insurance, which he agreed however he is now threatening to put a lien on the house.

Merrifield Garden Center has a plush abundance of indoor and outdoor plants. We came here looking for evergreen flowering shrubs to replace the gradually and painfully dying shrubs in the beds in front of our house. We looked around their inventory to get an idea of what Merrifield had available. When we were satisfied we were ready to ask questions, a gal nearby appeared and asked if we had any questions. We did, and she answered thoroughly. She also recommended what potting soil to use. There's also a little open air stand out in the shrub section with somebody there available to provide assistance. We settled on several Caventine Andromedas and one Camellia Londontowne Blush. Keeping my fingers crossed that these babies do well in our not the best in the world clay soil. By the way, we also checked out Lowe's and Home Depot to see if they had anything comparable, and they did not.
