Excellent work. We highly recommend Sione's! Here's the quick summary (longer one below it, if you're interested):
We hired Sione's to replace our wood porch with a concrete one, replace the supports holding up the porch roof (while preserving the roof), and also replace the concrete stairs leading to our porch. We are super happy with the results. Paul and co. are reliable, communicative, and they have the know-how for a wide variety of work!
More details: The roof over the porch due to be replaced was in good condition, so we wanted to preserve it, and we hoped to save money by preserving the existing supports that held up the roof, as well. We also wanted to replace our old, uneven steps leading to the porch with safer concrete ones featuring a rounded corner, so that you can walk diagonally up/down. Paul and co. signed on to this initial scope. After starting the project, we discovered that the old supports holding up the roof were in worse shape than we realized, and in need of replacement. Paul and co. were helpful and proactive about finding a solution for replacing the supports that stayed within our budget. They also did a great job of temporarily supporting the roof while replacing the supports.
Our project involved a lot of steps and thus spanned roughly a week, and throughout the process, Paul and co. kept us well-informed of progress, scheduling, next steps, and they also were happy to answer every question and we had along the way. This was the biggest project we've done so far with our home, so it was really great for us to have this level of support and communication.
Another thing that stands out to us about Paul and his team was how they went above and beyond, multiple times.
For instance, it hadn't occurred to us that filling the porch in with concrete could make it more difficult to discreetly run electrical power to our shed in the future. Paul noticed this situation and offered to install an out-of-the-way cable pipe of sorts (not sure what the technical name is) that we could use to cleanly and easily run power under the porch in the future, saving us a future headache.
Another example: initially, we didn't know that our porch roof and house siding are less-common materials that are hard to find these days. Paul's team had expert experience with these materials, realized this potential issue, and did a great job of maintaining and reusing these materials as they cleaned up the underside of the porch roof. Then they tightened up the porch roof underside that was sagging (it looks so much better now). They even constructed a cover/hatch for our crawlspace out of some of the leftover scrap material, so that it matches the rest of our porch and house!
All in all, we are very happy with the finished results. Our backyard and house experiences have been seriously upgraded as a result of their great work. Thank you to Paul and the rest of the team. We highly recommend them for your next project. read more
