"5 fails in one job, didn't even listen on what the problem was. Then raised the wrong floor, probably damaged the house. [*** Link removed ***]"

"Derek gave me fair pricing. He was kind, punctual, and courteous always. He answered all my questions. He showed up on time as discussed. Finished the project on time, as scheduled. And finished project at budget."

"I am very pleased with the outcome of the porch but I did have to spend a lot of time communicating with the crews myself during the job. Mr. Jones does not perform the contract work himself but instead he has different crews come in and work on their own specialties and they communicate with Mr. Jones via smartphone. When one crew ends, he sends out the next crew. The contractors that came in to do their own work were graded an A. Their skills were way better than I expected and they were very cordial. The contractors he used for my job were excellent. It was stated that all of their work is done to code but I can't stress enough, PAY THE $170 FOR A BUILDING PERMIT. I was told a permit may cause a delay because when Mr. Jones requests an inspection at certain stages of the build it takes a week at the most for the inspector to arrive. Those delays were minimal. Since mine was a permit job I was also told that if mine was waiting on an inspection he would send the crew to another non-permit job while we waited. They didn't come back when my job was ready to move on so that is where some of my delays came. My porch took 6 weeks to complete but it was started at the beginning of December and finished mid-January so we had two Holidays to work around and some days the weather caused delays but those were minimal. Since the job is not overseen onsite it was up to me to constantly bring up areas that needed addressing and I had to stay on top of that communication. Mr. Jones was always pleasant but there should have been more site visits to make sure the crews completely finished their stage of the build since this is not my area of expertise. But again, having an experienced inspector helped to keep the build to code. I have to say I was at fault by NOT discussing the exact type of door to install. He had a basic door that he uses but it was worth me paying the difference to get a better door. Remember, YOU are the one having the work done by a contractor so certain decisions need to be made by YOU for your own comfort level. You need to inspect every job by any contractor as it progresses because if it gets too far along and something isn't quite right, you may not be able to easily go back and make changes if things get "layered". Some areas to control from the beginning on this job: get a building permit, discuss the exact door you want, discuss the color of gutters, discuss the swing of the door (in/out, right/left). Mr. Jones was trustworthy and said if I had any issues in the future he would come back and address them, and I do believe him."

"John and his crew are excellent. This was a large screened in deck build, over 200 square feet, and they had it done in under a month. They would have been done even faster if not for weather. Extremely reasonable pricing for a job of this size. The entire crew was incredibly polite and professional. Most of this job was done while we weren't home and I never had any worries about that. The quality of the carpentry done on the deck, especially the frame, was very impressive, the screening was done neatly with no seams showing, and the roof looks extra study too. I would absolutely hire again and probably will in the future."

"We needed our driveway fixed badly and had some massive quotes for cement and asphalt. Everything was done exactly the way we needed and better. We couldn't be happier with the job done and highly recommend!"

"Team did a beautiful job. Hired for additional work."

He also gave me a bonus and fixed my gravel drive way . There are no weeds in the driveway now ,and all the gravel is together! He is going to come back in the spring for another project ."

"The quality of the work and responsiveness were top notch. It has been a pleasure doing business with Creative Bobcat Concepts; Cory is extremely honest, hard working, very knowledgeable about excavation best practices, and provides very reasonable and fair pricing. Within hours of my request for quotation, Cory drove 1 ½ hours to examine the work necessary, provided a quotation the next day, and completed the job in a timely manner within the highest standards of quality. Thank you Cory, Creative Bobcat Concepts has my highest personal recommendation."

"We are very pleased with the work done by Smoky Top Contractor. They listened carefully to our wish list, then helped up design and ultimately constructed our our dream outdoors living area.

We love the work they did and truly enjoy our new outdoor space. We highly recommend Smoky Top Contractor."
