It is rare to find a contractor who does excellent work, charges a fair price, communicates well…read moreand actually does what they say they are going to do. EnviroTek exceeded my expectations in every way.
A deck is a major expense and there are a lot of pieces involved -- design, materials, engineering, permits, inspections and construction. Before choosing EnviroTek, I got three bids. Some of the other proposals were extremely expensive, and it wasn't always clear who would actually be doing the work or how much would be subcontracted.
EnviroTek was different from the beginning. Sammy, the proprietor, was straightforward, responsive, organized and very easy to work with. He never pressured me or tried to upsell me. His proposal was clear, his pricing was reasonable, and I always knew what I was paying for. There were no unpleasant surprises with the cost and Sammy was always upfront whenever a decision needed to be made.
Sammy uses his own crew and has worked with them for years. They showed up every day, worked incredibly hard and clearly took pride in doing the job well. Even my neighbors commented on how impressed they were with them and how consistently they worked.
My home is in an HOA, so I couldn't get too creative with the design and everything had to fit the existing architectural style. Even with those limitations, the finished decks and walkway came out beautifully and I am extremely happy with the result. The work was done cleanly and properly and we passed every inspection without any problems.
I was away for a good part of the construction, which could easily have made a project like this stressful, but it wasn't. Sammy kept me updated, regularly sent photos and let me know how things were progressing. I never had to chase anyone down or wonder what was going on. I felt completely comfortable having the work continue while I was away because I knew they cared about my house and were going to do things the right way. That is not something I take for granted with a contractor.
Overall, EnviroTek went far beyond what I expected. They turned a stressful situation into a manageable and successful project. They were dependable, responsive, trustworthy and genuinely cared about getting things right and keeping the site clean during construction.
I really cannot say enough good things about EnviroTek. This was one of the best referrals I have ever received, and I would recommend them without hesitation. If you are considering building or replacing a deck, I would absolutely call Sammy before making a decision.
My only regret is that Sammy doesn't do every kind of construction and home repair, because I would happily hire him for everything in my house.
Truly an outstanding company and an outstanding team. Five stars is not enough.
