When I requested a quote fir a yard fence from Trost Plastics, the president of the company arrived…read moreto measure and price the job. Justin gave me his cell phone number, and has been very helpful in planning the fence and providing advice. As with so many home projects during these COVID times, there was a several month backlog for installation. Justin told me up front that the fence would not be installed until September. He explained that his firm does not hire extra crews of unknown workers during busier tomes only to let them go when work slows. His crews have worked for Trost for many years, and know what they are doing. It shows now that the project is complete. The crew was polite, and responsive to our requests. They placed excess dirt in a spot that needed fill, and spread it out professionally. Afterwards, I noticed one post cap-a VERY small detail- was not secured, called Justin and they were back the very next day! The fence is beautiful and we will call them fir our next project- a pool deck!

They did a fantastic job! They Arrived and communicated when they said they would and even started our project earlier than expected! They have in-house installers and had 4-5 workers each day until the project was finished! If we could give 10 stars we would! Also wanted to mention Terry had great ideas for colors that we went with and we are so glad we did! Thank you Trost for doing an excellent job!

We hired Jerry to replace two decks. Work was started Aug 2020 and stopped Sept 2020 because Jerry…read morehad not ordered enough deck railing. We were told that we had to pay an additional $845 because the additional railing was not part of the job. Old deck had railing on all three sides so I don't know why Jerry decided we only needed railing on two sides. Wife paid the extra money. Here we are in Jan 2023 and we are still waiting. Jerry says he'll be here to finish but never shows up when he says he's coming. So we still have a deck people could fall off and get hurt. Not a reliable contractor.

MDR Build recently completed a multi-phase renovation project for my home - a crumbling deck, aging…read morecountertops, cracked tile due to cracked basement floor, decrepit old shower and vanity, and fog-filled builder grade windows. End result? - beautiful high quality deck, countertops and backsplash, windows, shower, vanity, and fog-free windows that have reduced exterior noise and reduced our utility bills. My number one positive about the experience is the quality of products MDR Build uses. The second is communication - if MDR says they will email you a bid within 24 hours, they do it! There were bumps along the way - weather, product availability, and a brief delay due to installation crew availability. MDR kept me informed throughout the entire process and quickly addressed issues that arose. I'm very pleased with the end result.

Both Glenn and Caleb were easy to talk to and answered any questions and concerns we had through the process. Overall, a couple of really nice guys that worked really hard each day they were here. We really appreciate all the work that went into making our project look great, meet code and to be strong and sturdy. Would definately hire again. If you need quality work done, give them a call!
