They were the lowest cost, but still competitive, and went the extra mile to hand dig every fence post so as not to hit any buried electrical lines. Additionally, they are family-owned and local, which is important to me because I want to always refer my neighbor's business over big conglomerates. Call John and his family and get the job done right!

We contracted Winkler Deck and Fence to replace 4 gates and perform minor repairs on our existing…read morefence after receiving a referral. The initial engagement with the owner Curt was pleasant, the quote we received was reasonable, and the job started 8 weeks after we signed the contract. Unfortunately, that's where the good ended... On the day of the job, the crew didn't let us know they were onsite, which wasn't a good start. Then after the work was completed they left without notifying us that the job was done nor doing a walkthrough with us. The next day we looked over the work and noticed that two of the installed gates were not level and were substantially tilted to one side. We contacted their office manager, Tammy, who stated that the owner Curt would stop by the following day to review the issues. Curt was a no-show and after following up with Tammy she stated he would stop by the next day instead. He was again a no-show. We once again followed up and asked for a specific day and time that they would come out so that we didn't have to miss work again and never received a response... The following weekend Curt finally showed up unannounced and without notice and never apologized for the no-shows. He then immediately asked in a defensive tone "What's your problem with the gates?". We explained the issue and he tried to blame it on the previous fence builder. We stated that the previous gates were level and installed correctly and he replied "Well then what do you expect, this was a repair job". Uh ok... I expect properly built and installed gates, per our contract. He finally agreed that one of the gates should be rebuilt after initially denying it had issues and said he would try to reposition the other gate to reduce the slant, but he clearly was not happy about doing the work. Also, after providing feedback on the crew's disappearing act he stated "We have bigger jobs than this that are more important". When I stated I couldn't recommend them to others due to their lack of customer service, he walked off and barked "We have plenty of other work in this area so I'm not worried about it". Wow... A simple apology would have gone a long way... Ultimately they did fix the gates and followed up to see if we were satisfied. However, based on our overall experience I would not recommend this company due to their lack of basic customer service, lack of basic respect for their customers, and shoddy workmanship. Also, they clearly don't value smaller jobs, which is a bad move on their part because they lost future business with me as well as my neighbors who asked about my experience.

Jeff and his work crew have been wonderful. I was a bit startled at first contact, but I soon came…read moreto realize that Jeff is just very direct. So don't let that review from 2015 put you off! He communicated with me directly at every step, which is more than I can say for our landlord! When he and his crew showed up to begin work, we didn't know they were coming - so all of our stuff was still on the old balcony and the lanai underneath. No complaints from them, they just started moving everything. From start to finish, I could see the quality of their work (I actually have some construction experience). They were polite, respectful, and along with the solid construction, cleaned up after themselves when finished. I didn't pay for the new balcony, so I have no idea of the cost, but I would certainly hire these folks myself if I needed a deck or other such work.

So much so the garage foundation was visible on the side of the porch. The entire concrete pad was at different angels. I thought surely the entire structure would have to be replaced.

Returning what looked like a hopeless situation to a safe, once again attractive structure. Mike at Chesapeake Concrete Raising / Belair, Md. is responsive and knowledgeable and performed meticulous work. He does business with integrity at a huge cost savings.

This was our 2nd time using Creative Deck. This review is for customer awareness. We contacted the…read morecompany and discussed these matters with them before posting this. #1 - Although we are the property/homeowner, you do not have to be home during install. We are nervous homeowners. We took off work to be there. Unlike other construction we have used, Creative has only ONE crew that installs. That weight is on the ONE foreman who will have to take off work unexpectedly. No one showed. #2 - Calls the day of. We were called the morning of and asked "Can they come today?" We felt this "same day" scheduling was very erratic, compared to what we experienced with this company before. #3 - Customers - mark your wires and inform your adjuster. Your buried internet and automower wires are not marked by the Utility company. Inform your adjuster so he/she can help you get these marked. The 3-star rating was a 1-star. The company took time to speak with us about the issues, so we are showing some teamwork. Gary has been there for decades and knows his stuff. The management here - doesn't have time for conversation or empathy. They will throw the paper work back in at you, and you can see that response in their comments to reviews here. Sometime everything legal isn't moral/correct. We aren't sure we will use them again. It just seems sloppy and unorganized for our type of property ownership. I'm sure it would work great for other types of homeowners.

I would highly recommend against using this company…read more I was given a reasonable quote from them for a new fence for my yard, so that my dog can play without getting out. I decided to go ahead and signed a contract and scheduled the work. The work was completed in a reasonable amount of time, however this is about all that went well. The fence was installed very sloppily with several issues. I immediately tried to resolve these issues with creative deck design, however they argued and refused to do anything. They will not stand by their work at all, and will instead insist that it was the best that they can do. Eventually the issues were resolved with my fence, after several months repeatedly asking them to resolve the issues. However I can't give any better review because these issues should have never been there in the first place. Additionally when if issues did arise, they should have been addressed rather than trying to avoid fixing it. For anyone else considering this company, please read the reviews and pay attention to the bad reviews. There is a common theme amongst all of them, these aren't just bad reviews from people not getting their way. I've also put two pictures of their workmanship up, it will speak for itself.

If you are looking for a contractor that combines master-level craftsmanship with unparalleled integrity, look no further. The Vision: Wisdom Meets Creativity From our very first meeting, it was clear that Garry is in a league of his own. His wisdom and creativity are "over the top." He didn't just listen to our 40-year-old dream; he fully developed it, refined it, and raised our vision to a level we hadn't even imagined possible. Beyond the aesthetics, their technical expertise is profound. They are extremely knowledgeable regarding both sophisticated design and the complexities of State and local building codes, ensuring that our dream was built to last and fully compliant. The Build: Garry's "A-Team" Once the design was set, Garry's A-Team took over, and they are truly a force to be reckoned with. This crew consists of: · Self-Motivated Professionals: They are true self-starters who take immense pride in their craft. · High-Intensity Focus: There was no stalling and no wasted time. Each team member was goal-driven and highly focused from the moment they arrived. · Elite Work Ethic: The level of mutual support and professional ethics shown by this crew was the highest I have ever witnessed in the industry.

Bottom Line: If you want a "World Class" experience and a result that reflects the highest standards of excellence, call ARH Decks. Garry and his team don't just build decks--they make dreams come true.
