We used Forks River to add a large screened porch to our existing home, and we could not have been more thrilled with their work. From the initial call and throughout each stage of the process they were responsive, professional, and competent, not to mention being truly delightful people. Their bid was detailed and clear, as were all plans, materials lists, and billing. Their architect provided a creative solution to a difficult roof tie-in, and Kathryn was available throughout the build for any questions. Matt was on-site whenever needed if complications arose (like the unexpected discovery of an old septic tank) and resolved them rapidly and competently.
The entire work crew was amazing. They showed up promptly at 8 am and worked steadily through the day, every day, unless it was hopelessly pouring rain, always good-natured and generally just pleasant folks to have around your home. Dan, the team leader, was experienced, knowledgeable, and steady. He offered ideas that added practicality and nice finishes that enhanced the livability and esthetic of the project. Josh was available for back-up when there was a post-project repair and resolved the issue promptly. And kudos as well to Rob and Jacob, the rest of the crew. They are hard-working and great assets to the team.
The project was undertaken and completed on the schedule outlined at the front end with no unnecessary delays or hidden or unexpected costs. When a post-completion modification was needed (a minor roof leak), they were there to address it literally within a few hours of my call. These folks take their work and their client relationships seriously. They deliver what they promise and stay with it until it is right. We recommend them enthusiastically and without reservation.
