After setting up an appointment, receiving an over the top glossy brochure in the mail and having two people come out to take a look at our job, we heard nothing back from Capital Construction. I phoned twice to get the quote and was told by Karla that it was on the way. They never sent the quote. Obviously our job was too small for them and they couldn't be bothered. Very unprofessional.

Response from Capital Construction Contracting Inc
Hello[Member's name removed], Thank you for your feedback. We apologize for the trouble you’ve encountered with your quote. Here at Capital Construction, we strive to ensure all clients are treated with the utmost respect and receive our top attention. Although this is not an excuse, the estimator assigned to you had to go out-of-town and encountered computer issues, which caused him to fall behind on work and communication. Unfortunately, you were caught up in that and never received your proposal. It was an oversight on our end, and we deeply regret it. We will be happy to take another look at the work and provide you with an updated proposal right away. At Capital Construction, we value every customer and every job. No job is too small or too large for our undivided attention. We would love an opportunity to make amends and show you personally that we can meet and exceed all your construction related needs and expectations. We do look forward to hearing from you and hope you give us the opportunity to make this experience a positive one. Thank-you Karla Vasquez Sales Associate

Aaron and crew were excellent. This was a tough job, in the bitter cold and they did not stop until the job was completed. They asked about problem spots, assessed the area for snow deposits from the roof and did a great job. Many thanks to this team.

The team that came out was amazing! What a great work ethic they all had, and they were really nice guys too! The leader of the 3-person team did a wonderful job walking around and sizing-up the situation before beginning (complex roof on a 3-story home with dormers, multiple valleys and very step pitches). He explained everything in detail, and answered all my questions, and taught me a lot along the way. The team worked very hard to meet our needs and did so in the 2-hr time frame we were allotted. By contrast, last week our gutter cleaning company came out to do the same job and accomplished very little. The difference between their work and Capital Construction's work was like night and day!
Description of Work: They worked to remove a tremendous amount of snow from our steeply pitched, 3-story 2-family home.

Purchased a two hour minimum, and they were done in 45 minutes leaving snow on two ends of the roofs, so they only removed approximately 3/4. They completely removed the back because the roof is flat, and removed some off the edge on the front of the house, but left two pretty big piles on both sides about a foot high . I thought since they were done early I would get a break on cost, unfortunately, I still had to pay for two hours. Since I paid for two hours, I expected the guys to get back on the roof after their call to the office and remove all the snow. When I called in to schedule an appointment they called back a few hours later the same day, and they arrived on time on the scheduled day, so in this area they are good.

Contractor did not return calls to change service, then arrived at our residence a day early and refused to wait until we raced home (20 minutes) for guidance on where to dump snow. Ended up ruining several mature plantings and burying bird feeders. Had they notified us prior, or arrived as expected, we would have arranged to be home to direct their efforts appropriately. We paid the bill, but would not hire them again.

The team arrived at the agreed upon location at the time specified. They showed care for the items they were moving as well as for the many people in the the busy hallways and in exiting the public entrances they needed to negotiate. Similarly, the move at the other end went very well. They made the process of moving office furniture to and through our home a quick and easy process.

The work was done by a few different teams of workers, because it involved a variety of skills, and was managed by Dave and Jude. The painting was extensive and the team was a pleasure to work with and did a great job for a fair price. The concrete was also done extremely fast and professionally. Dave was good at reviewing and checking each job after it was done, and bringing workers back to address unfinished work. He was also responsive to any concerns that came up. It took a little while to fully complete the whole project, what with rainy weather and changing crews, but we were happy with the level of ongoing communication and never felt that they had dropped the ball. We will definitely work with them again, particularly with projects like this that require a wide variety of work.
Description of Work: The work included several different components: exterior painting of single family home, repairing and replacing shingles and some aluminum trim, rebuilding and staining a wooden front porch, removing and replacing broken concrete around the house foundation, replacing a basement window, and rebuilding a rotted wooden platform in basement.

It went pretty well and we didn't have any concerns. They were prompt and followed up. We have asked them since for an estimate to repair the roof. We went with a different provider as their estimate was significantly higher for the roofing work. The pricing for the gutter cleaning was good.
Description of Work: They performed a gutter cleaning and evaluated our roof.
I needed to paint, cover or replace some of the exterior wood siding to comply with the lead law following an inspection. Some of the wood was unpaintable, and I don't like the appearance of vinyl or aluminum siding, so I searched for a company to replace the wood with Hardi board siding. I learned that Hardi must be installed correctly to exact specification to avoid problems with moisture damage, and I hired Capital Construction because of the good reputation it had garnered and because it was certified to work on projects involving lead paint. Jude Watters handled the estimation and negotiation process. He was respectful throughout, answered all my questions patiently and never made me feel pressure to sign. He also managed interactions with the work crew, and was on top of the work process every day. The work was very professional, and the crew took care to minimize disturbing the tenants and neighbors. The building is in a tight location, so the disturbance could have been substantial if not managed carefully. At my request, they took some trash from the basement, cheerfully and at no extra charge. Damaged window screens were repaired promptly. It was a big job and took more than 3 weeks, but notwithstanding the local disturbance and inconvenience to folks, I had no complaints from either tenants or neighbors, which I greatly appreciated. The only small issue for me was that the white trim showed some dirty hand prints, but it's not noticeable until you get real close and I didn't feel it was worth making an issue. The company is very responsive during the project; calls were promptly returned. After the work was completed, however, the responsiveness dropped. Specifically, I needed an invoice for the lead inspection, and that took 2 months to collect. Ultimately, though, I am very pleased and would not hesitate to hire them again.

Capital Construction did an A+ job. They showed up on time, maintained a clean worksite, observed permit and safety requirements, did not exceed their cost estimate and completed the project on time, as expected with no surprises or excuses. They even replaced some rotted railing on my porch free of charge because “it needed to be done” (I didn’t even ask!). Their staff and workers are polite, professional and easy to communicate with. And the owner and/or foreman did a walkthrough of the project with us before beginning and after completion. And two very minor questions we had during the project were quickly attended to. I can easily classify Capital Construction as reliable. They were legitimately interested in ensuring that we were happy with the results (which we were), taking the time to check in with us, etc. I would use them again without question.
Description of Work: Capital Construction resided our building using James Hardie siding material. They also installed and painted composite/PVC trim.

It was an Angie's List Big Deal that I purchased. It went well. They were on time and professional. The price was good. I'm sure they did a great service but the deal was for them to also check the roof to see if I had any problems and to give an assessment. I never got that information. They honored the price. I should have been vigilant and took the intuitive to ask questions. I was not informed of any results. They were quite responsive. I would get a quote from them but I would discuss my concerns before I would ever consider using them.

This past summer, I contacted Capital Construction to do carpentry and painting on my mother?s garage. Louise was lovely on the telephone, and Jude followed up with a thorough inspection of the site. We then received an extremely detailed work plan with a reasonable estimate, all packaged professionally in a folder. In the end, we were completely happy with the results. My mother reported that the men who came to her house were wonderful ? friendly in conversation and immaculate in their work! We highly recommend Capital Construction!
repainted the entire bathroom, over and above the contractual obligations. excellent and professional job.

When I first contacted Capital Construction for an estimate, my roofing situation was complicated by insulation that had just been added on two rooms in the attic. The insulation was so tight that the ridge vent and louvers were blocked. The remaining attic storage area (beyond the knee walls of the attic rooms) was stuffy, even in the spring, and the build up of humidity could have created several problems. From the first meeting with Jude I could tell that he recognized the importance of adding ventilation. The solutions he suggested were carefully explained and carried out. I am very happy with the results. Jude set the starting date several weeks ahead and kept me informed of the delay which was only a couple of days. The estimate of the length of the job was on target The workmen were professional and respectful. I had only one suggestion at the end which had to do with a small improvement in clean up of the yard. This was done promptly.
Description of Work: Capital Construction shingled my house and garage which included stripping two layers of old shingles, replacing damaged boards, installing ice and water shield, roofing paper, new pipe boots, an aluminum drip edge, a ridge vent and seven extra vents in the roof as well as opening several louver vents that were blocked. They removed the debris as well.

Dave's team is always great to work with. They keep you informed where they are in the project if anything un-expected comes up such as weather or unplanned materials and they're great at returning phone calls and emails. Super easy to work with and very, very reliable! Due to the age of the building the build of layers of materials was a little challenging but Dave kept us informed and the end result was exactly what we were looking for. They did a great job and it looks fantastic!
Description of Work: Repaired set of front steps in historic South End by removing years and multiple layers of paint, concrete and other types of coated materials. Fully rebuilt the steps from the base brownstone to newer material including masonry base for handrail and other foundations. Once completed, ensured all newly installed masonry was painted within historic standards. Also repaired and painted front door, installed new kick plates and hardware and applied a fresh coat along the wrought iron fence of the garden.

Capital did a really fine job of replacing our roof and our front deck -- expert workmanship, polite and friendly workers and they cleaned up after themselves every day. Also, we had the ability to contact Jude of Capital by phone any time with any questions. So we were impressed. But what really impressed us more was was after the house exterior painting was almost done, we noticed a mistake in the color. David, the owner, came out to the house and decided immediately to assign a crew to come back for two days to apply another coat of paint in the correct color on all of the house. In addition, he created a punch list of details that he noticed for his workers to complete at the same time. All of this at no extra cost to us. The result is A+, not only for the work, but for the integrity of the Capital Construction management. We recommend them highly.
Description of Work: Capital Construction replaced roof, replaced front deck, and painted exterior.
