Allied Construction

Great job! Helped us to design a two car garage. Worked efficiently to remove the old garage, and then poor concrete and build a new garage for us.

They did vinyl siding repair. They also did gutter work. They are wonderful. I would never go to anyone else but them. They are very professional.

They did what we asked for and completed the work in a timely manner. We did call them back with questions about the concrete work and asked them to supply us with a warranty documentation. They sent us a letter stating how they would stand by their work, but didn't supply the warranty paperwork without having to be asked for it first.

THE SALES MANAGER WAS VERY POLITE AND SEEMED TO KNOW HIS STUFF. I WAS IMPRESSED, UNTIL I READ THE COMMENTS ON ANGIE'S LIST. MAYBE THEY HAVE IMPROVED SINCE THOSE COMMENTS WERE MADE, BUT THERE WERE SO MANY AND THEY WERE SO CONSISTENTLY POOR, THAT I TRUSTED ANGIE'S LIST AND WENT WITH SOMEONE ELSE.

WE ENCOUNTERED SEVERAL DIFFICULTIES IN DEALING WITH THIS CONTRACTOR. IT IS NOW OUR OPINION THAT THIS CONTRACTOR IS NOT QUALIFIED FOR CUSTOM WORK. WE DISCOVERED, TOO LATE, THAT THEY PUT IN THE WRONG FOUNDATION FOR A TWO-STORY STRUCTURE. THIS FORCED THEM TO MUDDLE THROUGH GRADING THE GARAGE FLOOR PROPERLY FOR DRAINAGE, SO THAT THE SECOND STORY WAS NOT SLANTING. NOW THE GARAGE DOES NOT DRAIN CORRECTLY AND WATER POOLS IN SEVERAL PLACES. THEY WANTED MORE MONEY TO FRAME THE UPSTAIRS BATHROOM EVEN THOUGH IT WAS ON THE PLANS WE SUBMITTED TO THEM FOR AN ESTIMATE. THE CEMENT PAD OUTSIDE THE SIDE DOOR WAS DONE HALF THE SIZE. I HAD TO BREAK IT ALL UP AND DO IT OVER MYSELF. THE FRAMER (A SUBCONTRACTOR) WAS THE ONLY PERSON WHO WAS PROFESSIONAL AND SEEMED TO CARE ABOUT HIS WORK. THE REP FROM ALLIED WAS VERY RUDE AND SEEMED BOTHERED BY OUR QUESTIONS AND CONCERNS THAT WE HAD ALONG THE WAY. OVERALL, IT WAS A VERY BAD EXPERIENCE THAT HAS SOURED US TO NEW CONSTRUCTION.

SOME THINGS DIDN'T GET DONE ON THE EXACT DAY THAT THEY SAID IT WOULD AND THEY SET THE JOB BACK A LITTLE BIT. THIS WAS THEIR BUSY SEASON. I WAS HAPPY WITH THE WORK, THEY DID A GREAT JOB OF CLEANING UP AS FAR AS LOOSE NAILS, ETC... THEY LEFT AN APPROPRIATE AMOUNT OF MATERIALS, IN THE EVENT THAT WE NEEDED THEM.

WE WENT WITH THEM ON THE RECOMMENDATION OF THE SALESMAN AND IT WAS JUST A HORRIBLE EXPERIENCE. AFTER LAYING THE CEMENT, IT TOOK THEM TWO MONTHS TO EVER COME OUT AGAIN. WE HAD TO CALL AND THREATEN THEM TO GET THEM TO OUT TO FINISH.

I HAD TO KEEP GETTING ON THEM TO FINISH THEIR WORK. I HAD TO KEEP CALLING THEM TO COME BACK AND CLEAN UP. THIS IS NOT THEIR SPECIALTY AND THE ROOM TURNED OUT TO BE AVERAGE. THEY MADE A LOT OF DRY WALL MISTAKES THAT MY PAINTER HAD TO COVER UP.

GAVE A FALL ESTIMATE, THEN NEXT SPRING EST. FOR SAME JOB -- 2,000+ DIFFERENCE, BOTH HIGH
