Description of Work: They built us a beautiful deck - exactly the way we wanted it. Kati was a pleasure to deal with. She listened, considered, and returned with a great plan. She was always on top of the project and very responsive. The men who did the work were very pleasant and worked very hard. They took a lot of pride in their work and it shows. We couldn't be happier. AVEC Construction is a gem!

Description of Work: They gave me a very detailed quote that was quite high (in my opinion). This was for a new very small deck. I sent them back an e-mail saying I thought their estimate was high and I asked them would they consider doing a repair of the deck at a lesser price. I never got a response. I ended up repairing this myself. It took about 30 hours(one person-me) and the boiling hot sun. I paid about $1,000 for all the material versus their quote of over $4,000. Had they given me a repair quote in the range of $2,000 I probably would have hired them.

Response from Avec Construction Inc
Dear Sir, Thank you for the review. We are pleased to know that you did get the issues resolved on this small landing deck and stairs. I am very sorry if there has been miscommunication and misunderstanding on the deck estimates and repair work. I went back on to our e-mails and the estimates and I realized that I should have responded to your last e-mail to acknowledge that I had received it and just revisit the fact that we weren't able to help you with the repairs due to issues that the existing structure had. At the first meeting on the site I expressed my concerns about the condition of existing structure; age of it as well as structure not being compliance in the current building code, therefore I did not recommend to repair it. That is a reason why we only gave you estimates on a new construction, which you had requested as well. Your request was for four different estimates; two for exact size and foot print of existing deck and two for a larger option, both options in regular pressure treated decking as well as C-select premium decking. Estimates for the smaller options range from $2,500- $2,600. The larger options priced from $3,160 - $3,500. Unfortunately there are some basic fees involved in each project that must be considered (materials, labor, insurances, county permits and fees, office expenses, owners profit, etc.) and charged no matter what size the project is. And often small jobs seems to become more expensive than larger ones. Our goal is to serve each and every customer with excellent customer care and service, provide fair pricing, understand, stay current and honor county, state and international building codes. Also give our honest opinion on issues that can be seen on site especially when safety is involved based on our expertise. Once again thank you for your comments. We wish you all the best. Sincerely, Kati and entire AVEC Team Kati Tolonen, Owner AVEC Construction, Inc.

Overall, even with bad weather, the job was completed in a timely fashion. If there were delays, emails were sent alerting me to any issues, whether it be rain delay or equipment delays. Overall, excellent service, very competitive pricing and a nice personal touch. AVEC Construction orchestrated all the permits, land surveys and drew up the plans for the screened porch. The screened porch is truly lovely and has become an extension of my sun room. The recommendations on materials worked out very nicely and will provide a durable and useable living space for years to come. I truly cannot think of any "don'ts"!!
Description of Work: Kati and P.J. (the owners of AVEC Construction) are very committed to ensuring that the work they perform meets a very high Standard. AVEC Construction removed an old deck and built a screened in porch, and in addition constructed a new stone patio and repaired part of another stone patio at the rear of my home. I would definitely use AVEC Construction on any future outdoor work. The employees are courteous, diligent in performing their functions and what truly impressed me was how hard the men worked. I never saw them slacking off for anything and they appear to genuinely respect their employer. Either Kati or P.J. came by on a daily basis to ensure the quality of the work and ensure that the homeowners specifications were being met. I truly appreciated the personal touch.

We can't be any happier with the work done by Avec Construction. Kati and her crew were friendly, professional, and a pleasure to work with. Kati quickly responded to my first call and her attention to our questions and needs continued throughout the entire project. We were impressed by the quality of craftsmanship and Kati did not hesitate to reaccomplish something if it didn't look quite right (to her or us). We would highly recommend Avec Construction to anyone looking for a quality product at a reasonable price. We will definitely use them again (brick pathway and fence repair). Avec is A++ in our book.
Description of Work: We had our existing Trex deck demolished and replaced with a larger screened patio (also using Trex). Also, a brick patio was constructed.

The project took approximately two weeks due to weather, building code requirements and our changes. We selected Avec Construction for our new deck project because we felt the attention to details and referrals from past customers would give us a quality deck. They delivered an absolutely wonderful deck for us. We are very pleased with the craftsmanship and hands on management of Katie (owner) and her husband. The crew was very professional and accommodating. With the county?s new building codes and our continual changes they had several challenges with our project. We love our new deck and have asked them to do our patio project.
Description of Work: Replaced the old deck with a new 338 square foot composite deck with railing and stairs.
