Seldom do we order service, pay less, and receive MORE in today's society. Such IS the case with…read moreSouth Coast Construction. It is no wonder they are busy, and you must wait a bit to get in line for having your work done.
Ours was an unusual situation, leaving both us and our neighbors in quite a lurch. Years ago the state re-routed driveways off a main highway and added a "street" for an alternate entrance to a few homes. The city annexed Eastside and took over where the state left off. The road has a water-board easement and other property owners, a street sign, stop sign, and is on city maps. Yet, city officials, politicians, and even the water board seemingly do not care if our driveway/city street literally falls off the edge of the hillside! We have battled every known official trying to get help for ourselves and our neighbors, realizing this horrific street condition should NOT be our responsibility.
So... we begin getting bids to have the city street paved. The local bids were completely unreasonable for two property owners to split to pave a road that was not their responsibility to begin with. Three companies who came out and gave bids all assured us the road could not be "patched"... it must be entirely repaved.
Finally... our neighbor contacted South Coast Construction, who came out with a VERY affordable bid to have the road "patched". Much to our surprise and delight, we got FAR more than we feel we paid for (even though it was never us homeowners who should've been paying to begin with).
These guys showed up on a Thursday morning, and by evening, we had an entirely new road! They not only patched the major potholes, they did an overlay of the whole road, AND added a pullout for us to easily access our postal boxes.
Though I obviously wasn't thrilled about being held responsible to fix a city street - we apparently don't belong to the "good ol' boy club - I was thrilled with the results, work, business ethics, and customer service offered at remarkably lower pricing than what we ever anticipated.
Now I would love to ask the other 3 companies who assured us it couldn't be done if they are simply under-qualified for repair work, or if they too were just "trying to make an extra buck" by all the outrageous and hideous quotes.
Thank you South Coast Construction for doing a superb job - going the extra mile unexpectedly, and at incredible pricing. We appreciate knowing there is still such a thing as "getting more than you bargained for" in business... especially locally.
I highly recommend if you have any paving work, repair, or other construction needs that you save yourself a bundle and call South Coast Construction FIRST. You'll be glad you did!
