+ 0 moreExcellent experience. Ovi was professional and communicative before project began, and he and the team were thorough and efficient once it got underway. We are very happy with results. Would call them for future projects, would recommend them without hesitation.

+ -1 moreOvi and his crew were great! I have a condo with a small back deck and the wood boards were falling apart. Even though it was a small project, Ovi was great. The price was good relative to another estimate. Ovi was extremely responsive and professional, and gave great advice. His crew worked quickly and cleaned up well. We’re so happy with our new deck!

+ -1 moreWe'd just moved 6 months prior, and were worried about people even using our porch it was so rotted. I got estimates to tear down and rebuild our meager front porch. Ovi at 4th Gen was actually a little higher, but after explaining to both companies what we wanted, I felt only Ovi actually understood. He was also able to make several recommendations (first time homeowners - *** do we know about porches?!) We were hoping to have it done before Halloween. His crew finished in just two days, two weeks before Halloween. We couldn't be happier with the work or the service. Ovi gets it. Our slightly less meager porch is now wider, deeper and much more sturdy.
Description of Work: Tear down existing front porch, rebuild with an extra section, deeper and wider.

+ -1 moreQuality was fine, but now that they have overcharged, we will not be using them again for anything on our property. If you don't want a job, just say you don't do small jobs and move on with life instead of ripping people off.
Description of Work: We had two fence posts that needed to be replaced, unfortunately, shame on me, I should have gotten more quotes. We were overcharged by over $1000 for two fences posts and still need two more replaced, as our fence is still blowing all over in the wind. Thankfully, we have found other providers who are able to do this for $300-$450.

Description of Work: "Power wash and water treat wooden porches to our six-flat condo building. Ovi, the owner, was punctual on his arrival for the estimate. He was thorough and clearly understands city regulations/codes for wooden back porches. He offered excellent advice and counsel. |The overall job took a little longer than expected due to weather conditions and we were informed the entire way through as to when and why the delays. |When the job was finished (and after full payment) we noticed that the wrong water treatment was used - a colored stain other than a clear as stated in the contract. Ovi was responsive to our letter of complaint and showed the appropriate concern. "

+ 1 moreWorking with Ovi and the team was great. They were incredibly skilled, quick and thoughtful about their work. The job did change a bit once we started - which can cause some anxiety - but Ovi was super patient and always provided great alternative options to consider. I should also mention that 4th Generation had to work in partnership with another contractor group we had hired for other jobs - Ovi took the lead in coordinating with the other group and it as seamless for us. We found Ovi b/c he was very highly recommended by the contractor from Gary's Finer Landscaping - who also did some wonderful landscaping for us. I was surprised to see 4th Generation doesn't have many reviews on Angie's List - their work was top quality. Don't let few reviews keep you from contacting them!
Description of Work: Ovi and the team at 4th Generation were hired to do several jobs. We are totally satisfied with the work, the crew was very professional and they are incredibly skilled. It was also a pleasure to work through Ovi who responded to all our calls, emails and worries. First, they ripped out about 100ft of an old falling down steel backyard fence that had become over grown with trees, weeds and bushes. They built a brand new cedar 4ft fence in a dog ear style. Beautiful. My neighbor has told me a dozen times how wonderful it looks. Second, they removed 6 large windows in the back of our kitchen and replaced with a sliding glass door + 6 foot wide landing/stair steps down to a brick patio. This project required they remove sliding, re-frame the door, reside the back of the house, dig footers, build a staircase and paint the inside of the kitchen when the door was installed. Third, they rebuild a set of old rotten stairs that is a secondary entrance to the house. This required some demolition, digging/pouring new footers b/c the old stairs were not built to code (unforeseen extra work that was not charged!), and a total rebuild of the stairs. Fourth, they built a beautiful cedar fence across our driveway as a safety feature to keep our children away from cars and the busy street we live on. The cedar fence is about 12 feet long and opens in the middle. Huge peace of mind for us :)
