It went great. Dermot and his team were direct, timely and realistic with expectations. The quality of the work was terrific and I appreciated their attention to detail (including clean up and follow ups to make sure everything was good).

I have worked with Royal Contracting for many years. Dermot and his team did an amazing job on our expansive new IPE deck and pergola. Quality and workmanship were top notch including the intricate cable rail system. The project came in at the advertised cost and Dermot kept us appraised the whole time of any snags or issues. I would highly recommend Royal Contracting for ANY home improvement needs. You won’t be disappointed!!!
Dermot McElligott and his carpenter, Fabio, replaced our fir rear deck with Azek. The work was performed efficiently and masterfully. Fabio was meticulous and ensured everything was perfectly done. He also replaced some cedar boards on our front porch and restrained them. This was our first experience with Royal Contracting and they exceeded expectations. Excellent and professional work. I hope to use them in the near future for remodeling work in our kitchen this winter.

I have used Royal Contracting for exterior and interior work on my older home with great results over the past decade. He has a small team and they do the high quality work at a fair price.

The workmanship on all projects was superb. The workers were meticulous in their cleanup and pleasant to deal with. The price was very fair and the work was done in an extremely timely manner. I have recommended Royal Contracting to others and will continue to use them with any future projects.

High quality work. The structure is much stronger as a side bonus. I look forward to working with Royal Contracting in the future. In fact, my last set of house guests plan to use them as well for upcoming work. They were impressed.

It went well overall. Dermot said what he was going to do, and then he did the work. He was fast, efficient, and the result looks great. The price I paid matched the final price. He does things the right way too, meaning he doesn't cut corners and follows codes etc. I will use him again. You can't ask for more in a contractor than to be fair, honest, and get things done.

We had an unfinished space with walkup stairs above our 2-car garage that we wanted to finish. I had a general idea of what I wanted done, and provided. He provided a detailed line item quote, and I was waiting on another quote from someone else (never received). It appeared high at $18,500...but I didn't really have anything to base that on. I am "El Cheapo," and eventually decided to GC it myself. I used my brother-in-law for carpentry (knee walls, box out chimney, floor, window, and door trim), flooring, and a DIY mini-split installation. All of these things I could NOT have done on my own - I needed his expertise. I hired a roofer for the lone skylight install. I bid out the plastering, gyp and painting. I hired the electrician. The space came out great, and I was involved so there's that satisfaction. But I'm sure the schedule dragged out, and I think I ultimately tallied the costs at around $15k on my own. All this is to say is that at the end of the day, his quote turned out to be quite competitive, and had I gone with him I would have saved myself the headaches of finding the subs and potentially could gotten the project done sooner. I did not go with him, but figured the least I could do is give him credit on his punctuality seeing and submitting competitive pricing on the project. Next project that comes up I'll think of using him.

We hired Royal Contracting to do this work because we were pleased with the work they did on a previous project. We are are happy with the work they did this time too and will hire them for future projects.

Dermot and his team are exceptional. Their work is impeccable - right down to the details. I've used Dermot several times for various projects and each has gone perfectly. I had Azec boards installed, replacing my old wood porch floor, front stairs rebuild with Azec with new railings and my back stairs were demo'd and replaced. I would highly recommend using Dermot and his team for any job, large or small, around your home.
