Stoneking Enterprises

We hired Stoneking Enterprises in 2019 after a total loss house fire to demolish the remains of the old house, remove a tree that was next to the house and limit the ability to rebuild, and build a new house. I can’t post a normal review because the complete honest story is 10K characters longer than allowed, so here is a quick summary of the worst: -Violated contract price and terms -Didn’t adhere to build schedule -DIdn’t adhere to materials selections -Swapped to cheaper subcontractors without consent or notifying the county to update the building permit -Delayed documents necessary to get construction loan -Ignored construction loan deadline and extensions -Took two years to complete a house when industry standard for this area during the same time frame was about half that long. -Didn’t maintain a clean safe job site -Didn’t follow erosion control regulations during construction -Materials went missing from jobsite Poor workmanship included: -Not removing a tree that is causing settling issue for the house -Causing the existing retaining wall to fail and have to be replaced -Not putting the house in the correct location or elevation in the lot which necessitated putting in a whole new sewer line -Random wires sticking out of walls -Light fixtures hanging by their wires from the side of the house -Dark gray grout left all of the ceilings over showers -Not properly restoring the grade of the lot -Not pouring sidewalk all the way to our lot line or from the sidewalk to the front door -Damaging the neighbor’s sidewalk with their equipment -External outlets that don’t work or don’t have an outlet in the hole -Using the wrong materials -Siding doesn’t completely cover the exterior walls and sill plate in places which is causing pest problems -Incorrectly building the deck and leaving off the stairs to make up for the wood they were short. To top all of this off, they sent us our final invoice before the job was completed and before we were eligible to close on our mortgage and it was almost $40,000 more than our contract. We tried communicating with them through a lawyer and they rebuffed every effort. We ended up having to file a lawsuit in order to get them to communicate. There are not enough words for me to say how strongly I recommend that no one risk doing business with this company. If you do want to take the chance, then I strongly suggest you have legal council involved from step one and that you insist that the scope of work description state that the job is to follow the plans and the selections rather than trusting the clause on a later page that references those supplemental contract documents to be enough to protect you.

still waiting for reply

They never responded or contacted me in any form.

They never got back to me. Too busy I assume.

Never got a response

Never got back to me with a quote.

It went well. They were always polite, did a great job, and explained everything to us. They wanna made sure that all things were right and I would highly recommend them to all. The pricing was reasonable and they always did excellent job.

It went very well. They were easy to work with, included me in decision process, let me know if there was a delay, and prompt.

We are very happy with everything. They did exellent work.

We really liked working with them. There's not much they can't take care of and they pack a bunch of experience into every project.

Everything went pretty good and the guys was helpful until he told me that there was going to be a cost for leveling the floor. At first he told me that it would probably cost around 8-10K just to level the floor (700 sq ft). After we were discussing my options because I simply wasn't going to pay that much he found out that i didn't order the material through Lowes yet and that it was just a measuring job and nothing else. He then said after measuring that it would probably only be 2-3K for the leveling. I definitely will never be contacting this company for future work.

They were clean. They picked up their mess and moved furniture as they had to do the job. They were very polite and were just fabulous. They looked around on the floor and looked for mistakes and ndash; they're so meticulous about the carpet flowing and going in the right direction. I've never seen anything like it. My house is perfect.
