    In March my wife and I decided it was finally time to get a deck built on our TH after almost 10 years. I realized it probably wasn't the best time to be building a deck with wood prices sky high, but figured we'd see what we could find. I contacted 5 companies to come out and give me a quote. Out of those 5 only Virginia Deck Builders and 1 other sent me a quote for the deck within 24 hours. And out of both of them only Virginia Deck Builders replied to every email question I sent (even after hours). My wife being a graphic artist was very impressed by the multiple autocad renders of what the deck would look like that were included with the quote. Nikolay answered all our questions a long the way and filled out the HOA approval form for us. From start to to finish everything took about 3 months (permits, HOA approval, inspections etc). We did run into 1 snag where we had to make an adjustment to how the deck was supported which increased the price slightly but Nikolay was willing to split the cost with me. After the deck was finished I had to have Virginia Deck Builders come up and do a few things that probably should have been done without me asking (cleaning up the work site better etc). There is still a couple minor things I still need them to do but they haven't stopped us from enjoying the deck. Also as we know no review can be 100% perfect my only real complaint so far is the Trex Select deck seems to be scratching very easily, obviously not an issue with the building of it, but I sort of wish I had been warned that it scratches easily and maybe I would have maybe gone with the Trex Transcend.

    We had actually sought a proposal a year ago at the beginning of COVID, but decided to put off our deck project until this spring. Nikolay stuck with us and really stood out when we compared his overall proposal with three others. Several of whom took weeks to come look at our project. Meanwhile, Nikolay had already submitted his proposal! Pros: Nikolay was very responsive and helpful as we figured out what exactly we really wanted. I always felt he guided us as if he was building this for himself, from a quality perspective. If we had ideas that needed flushed out, and/or put to rest, he helped. He knows what looks great and what doesn't. For example. We were planning to leave underneath our deck as it was originally - not very appealing to the eye. Nikolay showed up one day with some stones and landscape fabric to put underneath and said let's do this. They then built a small retaining wall to hold everything in place - at no cost to us! We are thrilled and very happy with our deck now. Nitpicks: Could they have started a few weeks sooner and proactively updated us of the slight delays? Sure. Did it really matter in the end? No. Every contractor worth hiring should have a backlog at the moment. This was understandable because several of his crew had come down with COVID, and given many supply constraints, they got a little behind schedule. We would hire them again in a second and so should you!

    Highly recommend VA Deck Builders. I wanted something very specific and Nikolay worked with me to make sure the design was what I wanted. The team worked to ensure the construction was high quality. I am super happy with the outcome and hope to hire them for my back deck as well.

    This vendor does a good job but the follow up is terrible almost disrespectful. He promised to do some touch up during the first year and staining and that never happened, I called at least 50 times and dmd on social media. Once he will cash that huge check you can be sure he will never show up for the smaller projects... I also asked him for a rooftop quote and it's been almost 6 months, COVID is not an excuse here...

    Nickolay called me the moment that I posted to Yelp. His crew came down with COVID. Whether an excuse or the truth, (even if true, a simple text is needed as the business owner) his crew came the day i posted to Yelp and got to work. A couple things changed from the original design because of structural issues with our existing deck. Because of the changes, we decided to add on to the original design and add steps going to both parts of the yard - the addition was completed right away. Our project was to add stairs from the existing deck to the ground. It took 8 days to complete with one or two men there at a time each day starting at 9. The crew did a great job, were nice, and cleaned up afterwards. They didn't work in odd hours which is also helpful. Be ready for quality work, but likely delayed communications. We're very pleased with the quality job. Thanks Virginia Deck Builders.

    Virginia Deck Builders did a fantastic job on both of the decks and the fence that they put in at our house. They worked quickly, quietly and efficiently and we absolutely recommend them and we would definitely use them again in the future

    Our experience was absolutely fantastic. Nikolay (owner) and Phil were heavily involved from start to finish - he helped us with colors, layout, permits, inspections, multiple renderings to help us make our decision, and was here constantly to check in on his crew (who was also fantastic). He was always very responsive, and in multiple cases has gone the extra mile to make sure we were happy. The deck was built exactly on schedule, and the workmanship is superb. Several neighbors have already sought quotes after seeing our finished deck. Like any project, there are some delays, complications, changes, etc. - but even with multiple projects going Nikolay and VA Deck Builders moved schedules, crews, etc to get things done on time and to our complete satisfaction. I'd strongly recommend for deck and any related projects.

    From the very first visit (June 8th) to the finishing touches on our project (July 26th), Nikolay and his friendly Virginia Deck Builders team were truly a pleasure to work with! We wanted a new composite deck to replace the original wooden deck of our 21 year-old townhome. Of the 4 contractor proposals we received, Nikolay's was reasonably in the middle of the range. Not only that, his proposal was the only one with computer renderings of the design (quite accurate in hindsight) from several vantage points. He was also the only contractor to recommend a darker border color (Trex Spiced Rum) to match the cocktail rails but contrast with the lighter decking color (Trex Rocky Harbor). We're happy we went with his idea because it turned out beautifully! Communication was excellent and responsive throughout, whether by email, text, or phone. This proved valuable and reassuring as this was our first project requiring a HOA submission package, county permit and inspections. Nikolay helped with all of the logistics, which made for a seamless experience. Invoicing also went smoothly via email. After the project started with tearing down the old deck on July 19th, Nikolay and his team finished the new deck exactly one week later! We couldn't imagine a better experience and outcome. Neighbors have also noticed and inquired. My family loves the new deck and we look forward to spending more and more time on it as the Fall weather approaches. I rarely feel compelled to post reviews but I had to make an exception for Nikolay and his team. I highly recommend them!

    Virginia Deck Builders did a fabulous job giving my almost 1000 ft.² deck a much needed face lift. They repaired and replaced numerous boards and were literally on their hands and knees for 3-4 days sanding and staining the deck. They were reasonably priced and efficient. Highly recommend.

We removed the wall between the kitchen and the tiny dining room, and Traylor rerouted HVAC, relocated plumbing, updated electrical, and installed cabinets, counters, and new flooring. The transformation has made a huge difference in how we use our home. The quality of the work is solid, especially given the price--which is truly hard to beat. The team was professional, punctual, and respectful throughout the process. They cleaned up daily, which we really appreciated. Renata and Livia were always responsive, and Andre checked in on progress regularly. One of the most impressive parts of the project was how they matched the new kitchen floor to our existing hardwoods. They removed the old kitchen tile and weaved in new boards seamlessly with the dining room flooring--it looks like it was always one room. Several guests have commented on how great it looks. We're overall very happy with the work Traylor completed for us and will work with them again for our next project.
