I highly recommend Scott's Construction. They installed 9 windows for us, always showed up on time, did great work, and at a reasonable price. We will definitely be using them again!

They were very professional. They were on time. Brian and Chris were very friendly and accommodating. They were meticulous and always cleaned up when they were finished for the day.

I wanted an opening in a wall between the kitchen and dining room in my 1929 home with plaster walls. I told Scott what I wanted and showed him a picture I found online. He did work based on that picture and I couldn't be more pleased. I wanted to save the old plaster crown molding and he had no ploblem doing that. I figured my house was going to be a mess during construction, but it was very clean throughout work. He finished project when he said he would. Pricing was very fair. Will definitely recommended Scott to anyone and will use him for future projects.

Guy showed up with Trump hat/ shirt and long winded propaganda. I thought his politics did not belong "in the client's face" and though I found enough tasks to give me a fair value for the $275 minimum charge to come out, next time I will go thru Angie's List or YP.
Response from Scott's Construction
"There are several things wrong with this review... 1. This is the second time this homeowner has posted this review. The first time it was removed by HomeAdvisor. 2. I do not, and never have, owned a Trump hat or shirt. 3. Even if I did, why should that matter?!? 4. There was never "in the client's face" propaganda spoken. 5. I believe the homeowner was heavily medicated from a recent medical issue and may not recall the events clearly. 6. During the initial contact phone call, I advised the homeowner of my company's minimum charge and tried to walk her through how to complete the task herself in order to save her money. The homeowner quickly declined and still wanted me to come out to complete the task. 7. While I was there, I offered to do a few additional minor things at no extra cost to the homeowner. 8. Prior to leaving, the homeowner was discussing several other projects that she wanted me to do, as well as signing up for our maintenance program. 9. See her review for Value for Money (1). There was no arm twisting - she agreed to the price I gave her PRIOR to my arrival and then slanders me for it. 10. My company's minimum charge is $225. I honestly think that she has me confused with someone else."

I was very pleased with their work. Scott encountered an unexpected problem and he devised an elegant work around. His cost was very reasonable.

After a fair and reasonable price quote which I accepted, they performed terribly inferior work. They also are negligent and disrespectful in their routine ignoring messages left - and receiving no replies back often for many days. If you need someone reliable while providing competent work you would not hire them - and simply look for another service. I have a long string of evidence in the dates and content of text messages to demonstrate these facts, should I choose to post the history in detail. I also tried many times to work directly with Scott to resolve the poor quality work - for which he came back to review, agreed, and then disappeared. I left numerous additional messages trying to amicably resolve this directly with him - to only be ignored repeatedly. I now understand that they have no intentions on making good on the $200 I spent on terrible, incompetent work in laying floor tile which 3 months after is still oozing glue up between the seams and being tracked across the floors! I'm also posting a complaint with the Better Business Bureau. As Scott mentioned that he had larger paying work, I realized I was of no interest to him for menial labor. I should find someone who respects all clients in whatever size job is done.
Response from Scott's Construction
"It is unfortunate that there was a product failure however the homeowner provided all the products to be installed. When I requested the tile packaging or installation instructions, I was advised that he did not have them. Prior to the installation, the homeowner was advised that there was no guarantee that the tiles on the stair risers would not fall down due to gravity. An additional adhesive was suggested, and agreed upon by the homeowner, to use. It is not typical that homeowners provide materials, but when they do, contractors do not typically provide any warranty due to possibly inferior products, which was the case with this particular project. These tiles were budget tiles, to say the least. The bottom line is that the homeowner hired me to install his tiles with his glue, for a labor price only. I completely reject his statement of "they performed terribly inferior work". The true fact of the matter is that we installed a terribly inferior product with no product information to review. Furthermore, I too have a history of text messages that recorded my responses as promptly as he responded to mine. On December 21, 2016, I proposed a solution on the tile failure issue and received no response until three (3) weeks later on January 10, 2017, where he irately asked for more solutions. At that time, I was out of state on vacation and one week later on January 19, 2017, I received the final text saying he was hiring someone else and was demanding a $200 refund. The homeowner has been issued a check for $200 to settle this dispute (Check #3483). Installation of an inferior, customer supplied, product does NOT translate into inferior workmanship."

Gutter was not fixed properly. Leak continues. Am calling a different company for repair.
Response from Scott's Construction
"Gutters were hanging to low. Water was flowing past the gutter during heavy rain. The job was to raise the gutters. The gutters were raised to there max without doing additional work (remove and cut the gutter guard down). Homeowner never expressed issues or dissatisfaction untill leaving bad feedback. Communication would have gone a long way."

The work Scott did for us was custom inside gates. They control access to areas for protection and security. His work was beautiful and timely. We are very happy.

They were always punctual, polite, hardworking, and trustworthy. They started the job and worked daily until it was finished. They cleaned up everything afterwards, and left it looking perfect. I was very pleased with their workmanship and knowledge. I would recommend them, without reservation, to others. I love my new deck.

I am very pleased with the finished product and a few changes were made along the way and cost was always discussed before anything was done. This was a complete tear out and redo. They were very easy to work with. I will definitely use them for other projects.

Scott's Construction not only added on our whole second floor addition but also remodeled and repaired a portion of our basement, installed hardwood floors throughout the main level, completely remodeled our kitchen, refaced our fireplace with stone and added a beautiful wood mantel as well as additional ledges. You can't even tell it was the same house we purchased! They were incredibly professional, kept on schedule, and were VERY easy to deal with. I recommend them to my family and friends all the time!
