Get matched with top carport (wood) builders in Oxon Hill, MD

"We are a repeat customer of Adam Contracting and will continue to use the company. They have done an excellent job on everything we've hired them to do; this project was no exception. The room looks great! For this project, Adam Contracting redid wainscotting in the room and added a shelf, did wall repair, installed crown molding, painted the walls and trim, and installed a light fixture."

"We recently hired KMA to remodel our kitchen and they did a beautiful job!! They were very knowledgeable in all aspects of the project and kept us informed every step of the way. We will be using them again to update our 2.5 bathrooms in the future."

"RJ Construction made significant repairs to our 30 year old cedar deck, stairs and screened porch. The old wood was replaced by Trex; a modern railing and screen system were installed; and the porch posts wrapped in a white pvc trim. The result is an outstanding modern looking porch/deck. Working with Robert was easy from beginning to end. He understood what we wanted, gave us good ideas and was timely in all communications with us. His team was also excellent in both the construction phase and in cleaning up the significant amount of wood and nails from the demolition of the old decking."

"Manny and his crew did an amazing job for my bedroom and touch up. They were prompt extremely professional and did an excellent job within the time agreed upon. I highly recommend them."

"I called Deck Cetera in May of 2011 to get an estimate for the construction of a new deck at my house.  Jean was very helpful, asking great questions about what we wanted, and provided us with a design that suited our needs, as well as our budget.  They were to take down an old existing deck on the third floor, which was connected to our master bedroom.  The existing deck was accessible through a french door, and Deck Cetera was going to replace it with a window and build a new knee wall and window sill.  I had difficulty locating a window that would be the right size, and Colin from Deck Cetera was helpful in tracking down and purchasing the correct window, for which he was reimbursed.  I did have some problems with Colin not returning phone calls for multiple days, but everything wound up happening in due time without too much trouble.  He provided my HOA with a packet detailing the construction and took care of obtaining the correct permits from the county.The construction began in the beginning of August, and Pete, the foreman, was extremely knowledgeable, kind, and a stickler for quality and craftsmanship.  We encountered a slight problem when the deck boards were about to be laid down, as I had specified the boards to be done at a 45 degree angle, and Pete had begun to lay them out straight.  I discovered that he had not been informed about the 45 degree angle design from Colin, indicating a breakdown of communication.  Had I not been present to notice this and correct it before the boards went down, it may have caused us some serious issues.  The old master bedroom doors were replaced with a window, which was finished and drywalled by Colin's dad.  The quality of the drywall work, window frame installation and caulking performed inside the house was considerably inferior to the quality of the exterior work done by Pete.  I did raise a concern about this with the company, and Jean came to take some pictures, but no resolution has come about.  I would have hoped for a better explanation about the discrepancy in workmanship but according to Jean, this is not the first time someone has complained about Colin's dad's work.  Quite a shame, since the deck really is solidly built, and we were extremely happy with Pete's workmanship and demeanor throughout the project.  Overall, I would hire them again if given the chance, but would steer folks away from having any interior work performed by this company."

"The remodel was seamless, professional, timely and relatively hassle free."

"Although we have not moved forward yet to build our screened-in porch, James and his team at DesignBuilders will be the contractor I select when we do.  (Due to an unexpected health concern with a family member, we had to put our plans on hold.)   We want to add a 14? by 16? screened enclosure to our existing deck which is extremely high off of the ground.   While the other two contractors complained about this (one even charged extra for it) James was confident that he could build exactly what I wanted no matter what obstacles our location would present.
I interviewed three contractors for our project.   Their proposals all fell within $2000 of each other.  Yet James was by far the most professional and knowledgeable of the group.  The other two contractors merely pencil-drew their vision of the porch while James and his team provided a computer-aided design (cad cam) of the proposed porch.  When I called to set up the initial appointment, James asked me to first send him a few pictures of my project area, a site survey (plat), and a brief description of what my project entails. 
Jodie, his designer (who is amazing and very personable!) then used this information to set up an online meeting.  For those of you who have never experienced an online meeting, don?t let it intimidate you ? Jodie is so helpful; she will walk you right through it.  Jodie builds a sample design for your project so you can give instant feedback and make necessary design changes right on the spot.  The online meeting is a starting point.  Next is the site visit by James and his team, who, because of the preliminary online meeting, arrive with a good working knowledge of your project.   Unlike your average contractor, James is ahead of the game and can provide you with much more detail about what you can expect when the project is completed. 
Because my roof lines were so complicated, Jodie came to my home to make sure she had all of the information she needed.  Just like James, Jodie is very professional and very easy to talk to.  She immediately put me at ease.  The cad cam designs she prepared gave me a clear picture of the different roof options (gable, shed, flat, etc.).  They also showed how the porch would attach to my house from several points of view.  This gave me a very detailed picture of what the finished project would look like.  All contractors should offer this approach!  It allows you to tweak and modify the design to your exact specifications. 
Next Jodie, James and Edward (another awesome DesignBuilder team member) came to my house and spent more than an hour suggesting a variety of options and some alternative approaches for me to consider - some I would never have thought of. They came up with some excellent solutions to the problems associated with our complicated roofline issue.  We settled on a design that met all of my needs while keeping the project within my budget. 
When James sent me his proposal, I felt very confident that he included pricing for every stage of the project, with no hidden fees or surprises.  James and his team prepared two design options, each with detailed pricing and a cad cam picture of how the finished product would look.  I loved both options, so I have the flexibility to pick the one that best fits my needs when I?m ready to start the project.
James has several videos on YouTube (search ?James Moylan builder?) and at his website http://www.designbuildersmd.com  that show his building process from beginning to end.  These videos will clear up any doubts you might have about the quality of his work or his experience in the field.   His is extremely knowledgeable, his team offers the level of professionalism and comfortable communication that is very hard to find among builders and remodelers, and every person I?ve talked with DesignBuilders has shown a genuine interest in my building project. 
Without a doubt, when we are ready to move forward with our project, DesignBuilders will be the contractor we hire! 
(Note:  This review was written by an actual homeowner in Columbia, MD.  I am not connected financially in any way with DesignBuilders.  In fact, I first became aware of Design Builders by searching Angie's List myself!  I am a homeowner who believes it is important to recognize and document great service by a contractor and share it with the Angie's List community.  In this way, we all benefit.  Good luck with your project!)

"I’m very pleased with the workmanship, value and timeliness of the work MTR Service did for me in April 2019. Had a 26 yr. old shingle roof replaced, entire house with mold growth on Al siding power-washed, some rotten exterior wood replaced and painting of all trim, gutters and garage doors done. The owner, Carlos, responded quickly to provide an estimate, offer advice on what work would be best value and responded to all my questions and requests in a timely manner. His work crews showed up when he said they would, were friendly, professional, and skilled and exhibited great work ethic. Really appreciate that they took time to prep for painting correctly, caulk exterior seams and do the job with care like it was their own home. I had gotten estimates from four separate roofing companies and had two neighbors that had similar work done to compare against. I’m certain that I got the best value. Bottom-line is that they did a great job at a fair price and showed that they can be trusted. I won’t hesitate to contact them in the future for additional maintenance and renovation tasks or to recommend them to others."

"Excellent. He diagnosis the problem I did not see and provided recommendations to properly align the new slides."

"They were really efficient of what they were doing. As soon as I hired him, he was at the property knocking out the work for me. he wasn't wasting time"
