Get matched with top architects/engineers in Round Rock, TX

"Excellent engineer with excellent communication skills and reliability"

"My uncle just had finished his project on the house, so I asked him how was the experience with the contractor and he said it went really good! I contacted Alter Construction and explained in few words about the project. Cynthia asked the right questions and when Eli came he already had all the information. Now that everyone is working from home I had to have a dedicated office. Eli asked if we had an architect or an engineer, we didn’t so he provided those services as well. The nice thing was that we could see the final design and the materials even before we started the project. Me and my wife are working all day from home and taking care of the kids, I just didn’t had the time to manage the project. So that was a such a huge relief to be able to trust them with that. This was our first project and for us it was really big, and they took all our worries away! The communication was exceptional, considering we are always busy from meeting to meeting, so the only way to communicate was through emails or late evening meeting. They adapt to our necessities. I’ve worked with many people before and Eli definitely set the bar high up with work quality, availability and most importantly, honesty. We will definitely keep recommending Alter Construction to our family and friends!"

"I would have given an A due to the quick response and the work performed. All were very good - on time and very professional. The outcome was a report from an engineer - we were told the report will be very detailed (the inspection part was very detailed), but the synopsis and recommendations were very very basic with hardly any value at all. As a home owner, I am aware and know the basic information shared. The price paid was not worth the money at all."

"Prompt response to my request for a structural assessment of a wall. Engineer was thorough in his assessment and provided a clear and precise explanation of the necessary steps to proceed with the project."

"Bryan from level Engineering was very helpful and was aware of our time line. We really appreciated his work."

"Kamal was extremely helpful in surveying the structural integrity of our dock. He went through immense detail to outline everything that needed to be repaired and was very efficient in getting it back to me for our broker in the sale of our home. I highly recommend Alaska engine engineering!"

We have a small heavily landscaped yard with a number of large live oak trees. Our house has a metal flat roof and had collected 2 years worth of leaves and debris.  Abel arrived as scheduled to provide an estimate of $1,200.00 for proposed work.  He did not get up on the roof when making the estimate.  He committed to bringing a crew of 4 including himself.  He and his 3 crew men arrived on time as scheduled at 9 am and worked until 4 pm.

They removed some branches, small trees, and bushes as agreed and cleaned out all overgrown beds.  They bagged all leaves and removed debris from the property in two separate trips.  We had a roofer coming at the same time to repair some small leaks.  Both Abel and the roofer took photos of the roof and reviewed with me.  Abel said that the work to clean off the roof and to really clean the gutters would require additional work and power washing.  Based on the photos, I agreed with him.  We agreed for his crew to return the next day and to power wash the roof and gutters for an additional $400.00.  We also agreed for an additional $100.00 to remove tree branches that were over the house on the long side of the house and that were pathways for ants, bugs, etc.  They removed a large amount of tree limbs to protect the roof and did a great job - well worth the add on costs. 

Per the original quote, they removed about 15 large established bushes in the beds and cleaned them up.  They trimmed vines as requested, weeded beds, and mowed the grass.  Returned the next day at 8 am as scheduled to power wash roof and gutters. 

Summary:  We had let our yard get overgrown and our previous lawn company was not good at maintaining and removing leaves and debris.  We thought the original estimate was on the higher side, but based on the actual work performed, quality of work, as well as additional work identified, we felt it was justified based on the condition of the property.  Abel and his crew were very professional.  Would suggest to be very clear about your expectations and be realistic depending on the condition of your property. I was working from home while they were working.  I had to remind him and his crew about some things to cover, and if I had not been home, I am not sure they would have been done.  However, I believe Abel would have come back and taken care of them if they had been missed.  I appreciated Abel actually pointing out some issues that we were unaware as taking care of them actually will protect our home and property.  We will using him for another smaller project as a follow up.

"I should have used Charles Todd Helton. A friend recommended me to another architect. I used the other. Big mistake on my part. I had a bad experience using the other one. I found Charles to be more professional, honest, more tuned in to what I wanted for a home design."
