+ -1 moreDelay in starting the work, but once he started did a nice job. During the replacement process broke a window and told me he would fixed. He has yet to show up to fix the window (4 months later). I even offer to take cash and get it fixed myself. Reach out 5 times and never got a response. I haven't made last payment and he hasn't requested it either. But the window replacement will costs more. You would think he would return the call and be professional about the situation. But that hasn't happen. They do good work, but the unprofessional service is unacceptable.

+ -1 moreSo far, we are extremely unhappy with the owner's timeliness and lack of communication. We signed a contract in mid-July and made a payment of approximately $8400.00. Work was promised by owner to begin mid-September, work did not begin until mid-November. Owner and contractors have not shown up as promised multiple times with no communication to us to complete the work. Owner and contractors have not taken advantage of non-rainy days to work on our deck and owner has promised to work weekends, and only showed up for one. We have so far paid the owner approximately $18,000.00 so far for very little work done. Needless to say, we are extremely unhappy with the situation and the inconvenience this has caused us. The owner makes so many promises and very few have been kept, Today is sunny, 48 degrees, no rain and no one is here. This whole ordeal has been very disheartening so far.

+ -1 moreOur deck is fine, but big mistakes were made with the lack of flashing over the pergola. We endured damage to our wood flooring, ceramic tile floor! His workers repaired the floor but as yet have not repaid us for the hardwood that we had to purchase. We are going to have to go the the District Magistrate to get our money and take time off of our jobs to do this.. Beware of Decks Unlimited!
Description of Work: In 2016 we hired Bruce to intall a deck and pergola at the back or out townhome, we signed the contract in early spring of 2016. The deck was competed in December of 2016. This past summer, in August of 2017, Pittsburgh experienced severe weather, with very heavy rains and storms during the first two weeks in August. We were away on vacation, but when we returned, after a few days, we noticed a change in our "new" hardwood maple flooring and ceramic tile in the kitchen. We had a brand new wood floor and kitchen floor installed as well, so we called Home depot. Their installers came over and told us that WATER coming in through the back wall (facing the deck) were the cause due to an absence of flashing on top of the pergola. We were told that the proper installation of a pergola near an outside vent required the install of flashing t prevent water coming into our home. We contacted Bruce Monsour and surprising he responded immediately, once h realized what had happened. He told us his team would do the repair and they did repair the wood and ceramic floor, but as yet, we have NOT been reimbursed for the wood flooring, the transition strip or the low cost flashing (which my husband installed!). He called us last Sunday and gave my husband excuse after excuse. His other businesses always take priority over his loyal customers like us. So, I extended kindest and support for this man over the past year with a previous review, but both me and my husband are done with this contractor. How much time does it required to pick up the phone and call people back? It's not worth your time and aggravation to hire this guy - believe me, not worth it. There are other contractors out there.

+ -1 moreFirst, we love the decks once they were completed, however, I would not use him again nor can I, in good conscious, recommend him. Bruce was attentive at first, until the contract got signed and he had some money He then become a ghost as calls and emails went unanswered including a two week stretch when his voice mailbox was full and there was no way to contact him. Start dates were made and missed with no contact. Applications were said to be applied for and they were not. I kept having to call our township office to see if he actually followed through as I would not allow him to begin any work until there was a valid permit. Because he had a chunk of our money, we tried working with him including rewriting the contract to include financial penalties for days over the completion date he agreed to. He would also show up at the job site and have a few choice words for his employees if something was not done correctly and they discussed it very loudly. My conflict is that I liked Bruce and his ideas. The deck is nicely done and of good quality. The breakfast bar and cabinet are beautiful. BUT...was it worth the 2 months of frustration? No. In all fairness to him, he agreed to a discount at the end because he realized what a difficult road it was.
Description of Work: Removal and replacement of two decks. One of the decks was increased in size with a breakfast bar added plus a ground level deck added. He also built a grilling cabinet to match the breakfast bar.

They would only work for a few hours then leave (this happened twice) then they didn't come back for 3 days. Then 1 guy comes and says he doesn't know where the other guy is. I call Bruce (had already been calling him for several days at this point) and he sends out another guy. Lots of excuses from both sides. After a lot of back and forth calls, the workers got the deck finished and it looks beautiful. I am very happy with how the deck looks but it sure was a hassle to get it done.

Description of Work: I scheduled an appoint for an estimate to build a deck. He said he would call the next day to sign the contract. He did not call the next day or the following day so I called him. We set up an appointment and he did not show. Then we set up another appointment and signed the contract and I have not heard from him since.

+ -1 moreI am concerned about whether my deck will get done this summer. Buyer beware. He's probably stretched too thin. I don't think he's a bad guy, but I'm made to feel like I'm a pest to him, what with wanting to know when the work will actually start. I will post an updated review once anything changes.
Description of Work: Signed contract in May. Paid over $10k so far. During sales process Bruce was very responsive and attentive. As soon as payment was made upon contract signing, Bruce was very hard to track down. He only showed up to collect more money. Very difficult to get any answers or updates. Work was supposed to start last week, then this week, and now no idea. I am concerned about whether my deck will get done this summer. Buyer beware. He's probably stretched too thin. I don't think he's a bad guy, but I'm made to feel like I'm a pest to him, what with wanting to know when the work will actually start.

Description of Work: Weather prevented starting earlier, but it happens with outdoor projects. Once they arrived it was worked on until finished. They replaced an outside outlet that did not work, to power their tools, helping me out. They are very proud of their work and craftsmanship, and take many photos to show others their work. |I would recommend Bruce and his workers to my friends and family.

Description of Work: I called Bruce for an estimate to replace a deck. We scheduled an appointment for 6:30 on Wednesday. At about 6:30 when he was supposed to be at our house, Bruce called and said he wouldn't be making the appointment. He said he had calls to return and would be at home all night so I could call him and reschedule. His other calls must have been more important than a firm scheduled appointment. I did call later in the week and we scheduled an appointment for 5:00 on Saturday. At 5:40 he had not called and had not shown up. I called his cell phone but he didn't answer. I left a message for him not to show up. I will not do business with someone as unprofessional and discourteous as Bruce. I would recommend not wasting the time in calling him.

+ -1 moreFrom start to finish I think this was the most frustrating experience I have had with a contractor to date. He was great for the proposal portion of the process, but the moment he got my deposit, he became non-responsive and verbally abusive. The start date for the project was set for June 21, he said that it would take 2 weeks to complete. The project was mostly completed by October 1, and there are still items that are not finished that I have to do myself. His work is fine, but every step of the process was a frustration. I probably spent over 50 hours of my time managing this project, attempting to get him to show up. In the end, after not seeing or hearing from him for a month, I closed the project, and sent him certified mail. Three days later, he showed up on my property without my permission, "finishing the job". BEWARE! This man is good at what he does but an awful business person.
