Reviews in Houston for Porch Railing Installation
Handyman Service by Ralph Kallie
Ralph did the job when he said he would and seemed to be a very nice and honest man but the quality of his work is questionable. For example: 1. Some of the braces holding up the middle part of the wood were not nailed down; they were just shoved under it. 2. The railing on one set of stairs does not match the other side. 3. Some of the pieces of wood are nailed in crooked. On some pieces where it should be aligned, it sticks out by 1and quot; on one side and is indented one inch on the other. 4. On one of the handrails in the front, he put a piece of wood with a big gouge with splintery edges on the top whereas the bottom of it is smooth. Why wouldn't he just turn it over and put the nice side up? 5. I asked him to replace a piece of rotten wood on one of the stairs. He replaced the wrong one. 6. The wood does not butt up against each other. There are small spaces between them. 7. One of the cross pieces is cracked where a nail was hammered. I don't think he would do this quality of work at his own house. His attention to detail is severely lacking. I have not been able to get him back out now that he has been paid in full and knows that I am not happy with some of his work. This work was done on a small weekend place so I was not there to supervise

FOUR SEASONS SUNROOMS
Horrible service--a complete waste of $10K. Their sales guy (from Isle of Man) assured us of a top notch job--complete customer satisfaction. We were in a hurry to get this done and plunked down 1/3 of the cost.....then no one got back to us for 3.5 months. We had originally asked for a screened-in second floor back porch and just replacement rails/posts on second story front porch (the originals were 40+ yrs old and showing signs of wood rot). We showed them the house down the street and asked if they could give us similar posts/railings. They said they could. When they finally sent a crew, they demanded the next 1/3 payment to buy supplies, which they did. The crew, however, had no drawings or plans, and could not do simple math. An 8th grade wood shop student could have done a better job. The crew was some guy named Scooter and his son, along with the construction supervisor, Rick Stutes. Once we saw what they were doing on the back porch we asked him to stop work, forget the screens, just replace the railings and posts with new wood--an extremely simple assignment. They could have purchased the pieces at Home Depot or Lowes! Instead, they fabricated posts out of a Hardy-plank substance and never finished the job. Left big gaps where the posts meet the porch roof and holes in our siding. It looks horrible now, and we need to hire someone else to come in, tear the old work out, and redo it. Expensive lesson learned--these guys are nothing but crooks and liars. I would be glad to provide photos to show you their workmanship. Some time in spring of 2015, I contacted them and asked when they would finish. A guy named Jason Rose emailed me and said all of the former people had been fired, and that he had been brought in from CA to clean up their messes. He came and saw the work, promised to fix it, and never came back. Last contact was August 2015, when he promised that it would be done by October.......crickets. We have an older house and have had lots of repair work done over the years--pool resurfacing, new roof, hardwood floor refinishing, painting, kitchen and bath remodeling. We have never written a bad review. Stay far away from these nitwits

The work that was done was perfect both in terms of appearance and price. The initial bid was reviewed carefully and the estimated time was spot on. Not only did we get what we asked to have done but we also got suggestions on how to do it better which were most appreciated and accepted. Quick, quiet and trustworthy. I wish we had more to do

We called three companies for an estimate. Jim Lupo was the only one to call us back and come to give us an estimate. We thought his prices were fair and he showed us pictures of previous jobs he had completed. We decided to have him do the work and we are very glad we did. They spent a lot of time on the front door frame to make sure it was done right and did a beautiful job. We are extremely impressed with the job they did. The other projects were great also. Jim and his crew are professional, courteous and pleasant. We will definitely use them for future projects

Wood Customs
This was the second time we used Wood Customs. As with the first time Cesar's crew did a great job. They were friendly and worked quickly and cleanly. Cesar came by frequently to check in progress, and everything was done in the time and for the price estimated. Cesar also beat the other quote I received. I will always check with Cesar before having any work done at my house. He's friendly and I trust him to make sure good work is done

JB Property Maintenance & Decking
Wonderful, for the first time in 23years of renting my houses, I have a contractor that knows what he is doing, stays with the job until it’s completed, sent me pictures at the end of the day. Because of this I felt very confident and didn’t have to worry every day if the work was going to be done correctly and on time. His pricing is very reasonable. I have jobs for Johnny to do after the first of the year , he is now my go to contractor, and highly recommended JB property maintenance & decking

Venetian Stairs
The beautiful transformation started when the sales rep matched us with the perfect pattern and color and worked the deal for maximum cost savings. The highly-skilled workers were very professional and exceeded our expectations. The work was done on-time and added so much value and luxury to our entry-way. We would highly recommend Venetian Stairs for your customer stair needs

Because this was a very small job, I had to wait a few weeks until Jim had an opening in his schedule for his guys to do the work. It was worth the wait. The two stair railings look like they have always been there. If I didn't tell anyone, no one would know that anything had ever been changed. I am very pleased

The boards were cut and painted with primer paint, then installed and painted with decking paint. The boards are now to far apart with 1-2 inch gaps and the trim in back of deck was not finished with cross trim finish. Banister post in back was not attached back on very well. Railing now Wobbles. there was a big dent left in a handrail that was not touched. I also had to call and have them come back to finish painting the entire front deck to match the boards replaced. Have not decided if I will have them fix the gaps in front porch decking boards. Post repair and handrail installed along with gutter downspout installed was done well. Power wash house and walkway was good and bad depending on which power wash crew was working. One crew did a great job, another I don't want back. Had to have them come back and finish power Washing one side of my house that was not done. The person who did my back room roof with HydroStop waterproofing did a fantastic job. He (think his name was Tony) worked alone and was very careful to waterproof and seal. Instead of power washing roof first, which was suggested to him, he power blew and swept debris off roof area to waterproof. He did this because Power Washing would have flooded the room below roof. He worked hard and long to get the job done correctly. He even came in and worked on replacing wet insulation below roof and replaced screws that had fallen out and were missing. He did superior work. No leaking yet 5/9/2016. I will definitely have this done again when needed. I decided later that the back 8'X14' deck needed painting after Power Washing. The price quoted I felt was high for the type of job, but I couldn't say no, because I couldn't do it, and it really needed paint, so I had them go ahead. The back deck was painted, No priming done

Infinite Construction
From my first call, Charles was responsive and open to ideas about what materials to use and how to lay out the project. He helped me pick what I think are very good choices to meet my goals for the project. He got started pretty promptly and finished on a schedule that was satisfactory to me. His crew did a good job of covering my pool to keep debris out. Throughout the work, I never got the idea that they were trying to cut corners to save time or money. His carpenter, Jose, appeared to have good skills and took pride in the work. Charles was always pleasant and easy to deal with, even though I had a lot of details I was worried about. On price, they were high bidder on this project, but I hired them anyway because I had more confidence in their ability to deliver a good project. Also, it wasn't a true apples to apples bid comparison because each of the 3 contractors I talked to was going to use different decking and railing brands and types. I think I got good value for my project, but, if you're looking for the cheapest option, you may find it elsewhere. If you're looking for a good result and a good working experience at a fair price, I can heartily recommend Charles and his guys

Victors did an excellent job. The price was right on the money, the crew was very professional. We had some weather issues around Christmas and work was delayed a bit but absolutely no problem for me. The crews were friendly, knew their job well, cleaned up the mess every day and when it was finished it looks like a new house ! I have referred them already to a couple of people and highly recommend Victors for siding and outside work
