It went very well. Brian was prompt, provided a thorough explanation of his recommendations, and a clear estimate for the repairs. I would not hesitate to recommend Macko for any service required.

At this point there is no communication. we were told in no uncertain terms that it was not up for discussion. DO NOT USE MACKO CONSTRUCTION>
Description of Work: We bought a house that Macko construction built. It had been cut into a sand dune. We expressed concern about this and they told us it would be stabilized with a land scape mat used especially for that purpose. Well 1 month later with several rain storms the mat has deteriorated to the point that we have major erosion. After several phone calls asking that they come look at it ,we were told that is the way they do things. To fix the problem a very large retaining wall will need to be built or we will have the dune up against our house.

Response from Macko Construction
That is incorrect. We specifically told the homeowner that there would need to be some sort of landscaping. We told them there were 2 or 3 ways to do it but they chose to not do what we advised them. The bulkhead was engineered and a approved by dare County.

Nightmare experience. Received written estimate for interior repairs for my vacation rental home and paid initial 50% down payment. Was given a 6 week estimated time frame for completion of work. Two months after the 6 week estimated time frame the work was only partially completed. Made numerous phone calls to company, leaving messages with secretary. Was told that person I needed to speak to was on vacation. There was no one else who had any idea when the work would be finished. Two months after the estimated 6 week estimate for completion and before the work was finished, I received an email with the final bill for the remaining 50%. After two weeks of then calling the company and sending emails, asking when the work will be finished, I finally got a return call from the owner of the company. When I asked when the work would be finished, he started screaming, said he was going to go to the house and rip out the part of a window that was repaired and said he was placing a lien on the property, and then hung up the phone. I sent them a check for the remainder, even tho the work was not finished as per written agreement, just to avoid any further confrontations with someone that apparently has mental health issues. Overall, after 30 years of dealing with home repair companies, Macko Construction was by far the worst company I have ever dealt with, in fact, this was the first bad experience I've ever had. The owners lack of professionalism, failure to complete the job, and threat to enter and damage my property, was a nightmare. Strongly recommend home owners take their business else where.
Description of Work: Window repair, door replacement per manufacturers warranty and repairs to door.

They're wonderful. They come whenever I need them. I have them on my list all the time. They do a variety of things and I've had them for a lot of years. They're very responsible. They're not the cheapest but you don't wanna have the cheapest. They do anything that I wanted them to do in the house. They're very good people and they do a very good job. They guarantee every work they do and they come back and fix it if it's not right. The whole company is very efficient. They don't do sloppy work at all.
Description of Work: Macko Construction replaced my beach steps. They also put hurricane shutters up, fixed drywall then painted.

In short the price was very high and do to the need to have some rotted wood replaced they would not provide a realistic cost for the repair work. The man did get out of his truck and came back to explain that some of my windows had a seal problem and Macko could do the work. This caught me off guard so I put his off and had it verified by the largest window supply company this summer and none of my windows proved to be out off tolerance. I also discussed this contractor with several neighbors who, fire chief, home owners review members and not one had good things to say about Macko.
Description of Work: While the provider did send a representative to provide a bid quickly the pricing was very open ended. The person was somewhat pushy and they just send out workers to with no owner on site.

Response from Macko Construction
This is a complete fabrication. We did meet with the customer but we never even sent this homeowner a quote. The work that we were going to do was completely covered by Andersen as was explained to the homeowner. I don't know what the issue is with this complaint, but the homeowner needs to get his facts straight.

Quality salt pressure treated lumber used. Stairs to include small landing and short set of steps turning south to beach. Very sturdy construction. Price included tear down of damaged stairs, building new stairs, and hauling old damaged wood out of area. Very reliable company.

I did have an excellent and pleasant experience. They did a great job. He told me it will take about three weeks to do the job and they did it greatly. They are one of the recommended installers and they are the one closest to me. Pricing was worth the cost for the work they did.
Description of Work: I did have some improvements done at my house last May 2011 by Macko Construction. We had a contract to put new siding and trim at my house. The house was originally wood-sided and we took off the old siding and placed new sheet.

Macko was great to work with. We had problems with Anderson windows and they being the Representative worked with Anderson to find and fix problems. They were very patient tried every remedy to stop leaks and ultimately reported to Anderson they windows needed to be replaced. The workers they sent were very nice and did a good job, not their fault the Windows had defects from factory. We also had problems with a couple of Anderson doors that Macko helped fix. Brian also was able to get new hinges for the doors. This was something he was not required to do but went the extra mile to help us resolve problems. Anderson Window Corp. did replace all defective windows and paid to have have them installed. I am sure Macko had a lot to do with the warranty being honored. Great company and do just about any thing you need.
Description of Work: Macko was the Representative for Anderson Windows. He worked with Anderson to determine why new windows were leaking. Windows were not purchased or installed by Macko.
