Your Decks Next

Prior to hiring Scott to build my deck, I got bids from 10 different companies. Scott's price was in the middle, but from our first meeting he stood out from the rest. Scott took the time to truly consider my ideas and help me figure out what I wanted by providing feedback and ideas of his own. He put together a great design and quickly got to work despite some rough weather. Unfortuantely my project got delayed due to some issues with the city that were in no way Scott's fault. As a result I asked Scott to change the design, but he took it in stride and readily made the adjustments at no charge, while maintaining his positive attitude. In the end, Scott wasn't happy until I was fully happy, and he spent extra time putting in finishing touches that weren't in the original plan, and making some tweaks when I changed my mind. I can't spreak highly enough of Scott's professionalism, patience, kindness, and commitment to the quality of his work. I recommend him wholeheartedly.

Scott is a great person to work with. He listened to all of our requirements for our new deck to replace the old deck, did the design exactly as specified and handled submitting the design and obtaining the permit from the city. Throughout the permit process Scott handled getting inspections completed for each stage including the final approval. Our deck is a two level deck connected by a staircase. It included new footings and also other cement work around an adjacent hot tub. We went with the composite decking and couldn't be happier with the quality of the materials used not just for the decking but for the structure itself and the railings. The quality of Scott's craftsmanship is superb. I have dealt with quite a few contractors over the years and the quality and professionalism Scott provided is among the very best.

Scott Lewis/Home Enhancements was great. We found Scott on Angie’s list and then also identified that he had successfully performed work for our neighbor. Always sensitive to our budget, he took our desire to replace, expand, and cover our deck and turned it into a backyard space that we have received nothing but complements on. Beginning first with his own initial ideas, he listened thoughtfully to what we were looking for and completed a design that matched that. During construction he was really easy to work with including helping us with a couple changes that we made after construction started. We highly recommend Scott and his work.

I could not be any happier. Scott was a pleasure to work with from the start...his plans were very professional, and he was very experienced in working with the county on getting the proper permits and approvals. Scott was there every day, rain or shine, and we did have some inclement weather for part of the project. We made a few changes on the project as we went on and Scott was always very responsive to my questions and concern. He was always very polite and had a very positive attitude throughout the deck project. Anybody who needs a beautiful deck done by a true professional cannot go wrong with Scott. I am so happy with his work I have a couple more projects that I will have Scott perform for me....he is a true craftsman, and his attention to detail and the quality of his work made this a very rewarding and happy experince...I would recommend Scott to anybody!

This company was a pleasure to work with -- from the time of initial planning and estimate until completion. They are very professional, personable -- and (best yet) gave us good advice, while listening to us and building the deck we needed. They were flexible and accommodated changes identified as the deck became a reality. Additionally, they installed a much-needed french drain. We are an extremely satisfied customer.

Went very well. Scott and his team were very professional, efficient and did a beautiful job!

Scott was fantastic. The work was done quickly, efficiently, and it exceeded my expectations in every way!

After having such nice work from Scott earlier this year (see our review from April 2016) we invited Scott to bid on a project for an 800sf surface level deck for which the footings were going to be more complicated than we wanted to deal with. Bids for this project from all bidders ranged up to 40k which was way beyond our plans. Scott was willing to bid just framing, leaving the decking to my husband and me. Work was done on time and exactly as we had hoped. He also worked around our septic system so we could maintain access as needed. They work a clean job site which is important with kids and pets in our yard. He will stay on our call list for future jobs.

Scott was very communicative and thorough in his approach to the addition of the new deck.  He provided ideas and layouts that that we didn't originally think of and gave us an unbiased opinion and pros and cons of material and design.  I requested it to be done in time for a party we were planning on having and he assured us that he would be able to make it in on time.  They did a great job building it and we were very impressed by the quality of the final project.  The cleanup was outstanding and better than I expected.  I would recommend Scott and his team to anyone looking for a communicative and quality deck builder.   

Working with Scott and his team was great. He came out and gave a prompt estimate, and worked with us on what our options were as far as materials and layout. We had to reconfigure the plans once because of the City's requirements for setbacks, and while we didn't get to go with our "Plan A", what we did get was amazing. We are so glad we did this project. We previously had a 10'x20' second story deck off of our dining room but had no stair access to the back yard, which basically left our large yard unused. Scott and his team were transparent with what their plans were as far as coming on site, and what work would be done and when. The work was done on time, and the only setbacks we had were weather related, and because we forgot to leave out a power source one morning - so nothing that was in Scott's control. They put up with our barky, 90lb German Shepherd the entire time - she was on the existing deck while they installed the stairs, and then as a last step pulled down the old railing, so that we didn't have to keep the dog indoors for the whole week. That accommodation was huge for us! Since installing the deck, our dog is happier than she's ever been now that she can free-range and bark at cats and squirrels up close and personal. Our daughter also loves playing in her yard.  We'd gladly work with Scott again in the future.

Everything went great. Scott was very good. Him and his son came and did very good.

<p><em><br /> <br /></em></p> <p> <br /> <br /></p> <p>These guys showed up when they said they would, worked efficiently and quietly, were open to negotiation, and <em>CLEANED UP EVERYTHING AT THE END OF</em><em> </em><strong><em>EACH DAY'S WORK!!!</em></strong><em>   </em><em> </em></p> <p> <br /> <br /></p> <p><em>The materials were top-notch, and the result is brilliant.  Two neighbors have asked me for their business card.  Their work speaks for itself.</em></p> <p> <br /> <br /></p> <p><em><br /> <br /></em></p> <br />

Home Enhancements Company is an excellent pick.  Scott is very <br /> professional and did the work just how I expected it to be and more <br /> so..  The cost was reasonable and work was done in the time frame  that <br /> was promised. Now I have a beautiful cedar deck.  I couldn't be happier. <br /> I would recommend him to anyone needing work done and to my friends and family. <br /> Thank you Angies List!! <br /> <br />

We needed to replace our 25 year old large lower deck and the smaller balcony upstairs. We were so lucky to have Scott Lewis and Home Enhancement do this job. Scott is so polite and hard-working. He understood what we wanted and the deck he built is exactly that and more. High quality, superb craftsmanship. We are very happy with our new deck. <br />             His price is very reasonable considering the quality of his work. His team protected the flowers and bushes grown around the older deck and when they finished the job they cleaned all the yard of wood debris. <br />             Scott is one of the most amiable and nice persons I've met and it was a pleasure to have him do our deck. <br />              I will wholeheartedly recommend him to anyone in need of a deck builder. He is the best. <br />              <br />

The work was done quickly, professionally, and solidly.  They were very friendly, courteous, truthful, and thoughtful.  It was bittersweet when the job was done, because they felt like friends but the end of the 7 days.  We are very happy with the workmanship.  Scott Lewis is a great communicator by phone or email and is very responsive.  I would hire them in an instant to build other projects. <br />

Working with Scott was a great experience.  He is an A+ guy who does A+ work.  Scott is an easygoing guy who really wants his customers to be happy (and we are!).  The deck and railing look fantastic.  Even the Building Inspector who came out for the final permit review remarked "it's beautiful".  Scott is an excellent craftsman who makes sure everything is done "right".  When our metal railings (ordered from the railing manufacturer) were delivered, Scott measured the distance between vertical rails and noticed they were spaced too far apart (1/16" over code).  Scott dealt with the manufacturer and had them remake the railings so they would pass the permit inspection.  I didn't have to worry about a thing, Scott took care of it all.  Originally we got bids from 3 different companies, and after talking with all 3 of them, I knew Scott was the guy that would care the most about my deck.  I highly recommend Scott to anybody looking to build a deck (if my mom needed a deck built, I'd send Scott over). <br />

Scott replaced a supporting joist and post that was rotting from exposure. He and his assistant did an excellent job. He was clear on what he would do, what problems he might encounter, and what the cost would be. Did the job in one day, and did a good job cleaning the area after the work was done. We would definitely use them again if needed. <br />

Scott Lewis of Home Enhancements is the ultimate contractor who has obviously done many, many decks before and knows what he is doing.  He has integrity, is fair, a good designer, a genuine craftsman who takes pride in his work, methodical, personable, reasonable in price and interactions, a great communicator, cooperative, responsive to our interests, safe, and keeps a neat work site.  I could go on and on about Scott.  You can't find a better contractor for decks.  I only wish that he did other work as well as I would hire him in a heartbeat. It was an absolute pleasure to have Scott do our deck, and we love the finished product.  There were a couple of very minor things that I brought up to him during construction, and he cheerfully and easily found a solution to them.  Other than the framing for the garage door below the deck that we agreed ahead of time was not in his cost, there were no change orders.  His lump sum price that we contracted for is what the final cost was.  When the city's inspector came for the final inspection of the deck, he carefully looked it over and was very impressed with the quality of the workmanship and found no problems, but only offered praise.  We interviewed a number of contractors before finding Scott and were not particularly impressed with the others.  But we instantly liked him when he came to look at our project.  He listened to us and didn't make snap judgments about what we should do, but gently offered his opinion when we didn't know which way to go.  Unlike larger contractors that have high overhead that you end up paying for, Scott is a small business who worked with his very skilled and knowledgeable son on the project.  Scott's concern is to do the project right and he calmly and professionally went about the process of building us a deck that will last a lifetime.  You can't go wrong with Scott of Home Enhancements and I offer up my unqualified recommendation of him as an outstanding deck contractor! <br />

Had a 10 ft x 10 ft deck with a rotted ledger board (no flashing between the house and the ledger).  Previous owner must have installed it themselves.  Wasn't allot of room on the deck for entertaining. <br /> Found Scott on Angie's List.   <br /> He's a busy guy so I had to wait for the installation.  But it was well worth it!  Some things shouldn't be hurried. <br /> Completely removed the old deck and stairs. <br /> Replaced it with a 10 ft x 24 ft deck <br />

We have a faux deck above our front entry where the railings needed replacing.  Scott Lewis was the only contractor that pulled out a ladder and looked closely at the job.  He indicated that there might be some rot under where the deck rails connected, but couldn't tell the extent until it was torn apart.  He quoted to replace and rebuild of the railings to match what was there before.  He was the best price of 4 contractors by half.  Once he had the deck apart, to replace the posts, he did find rot that he showed us.  We told him to go ahead and replace the rotted wood.  He did a great job with everything he did for us.  It took about 4 days to do the entire job and he was at our home when he said he would be.  Even after the additional work for the rotted deck, the price came in below the other construction company estimates. <br />

Provider took a very professional approach to the evaluation of the project and explained way a few of our ideas may not produce the outcome we hoped. Most of the final design and project was a collaboration and we appreciated his efforts to include our point of view. His estimate of the project was clear and thoughtful. The provider scheduled all supply drop-offs, use of additional labor, and managed the space around the job site so we could easily continue to use our garage. The providers communication was clear, timely and frequent during the course of the job. Despite the damp weather and dealing with the county, he finished on time and on budget. <br /> We are pleased he convinced us that a metal railing with powder-coated finish was less in keeping with the style of house and neighborhood than the high quality cedar he used in the construction. The combination of the composite decking (which has color variation) and cedar is visually pleasing. <br /> Finally, the providers communication, timeliness, project management, respect for our property and easy-going attitude are qualities we greatly appreciate; thus, we are planning to use his service in the near future. <br />
