Construction Systems of Virginia

Construction Systems of Virginia is a fantastic choice for mid-sized or smaller construction jobs – a niche that is very hard to find in this area. Joe and his team came to our rescue on a project that other construction companies either refused to bid or bid so outrageously that it was clear they didn’t actually want the work. We needed to replace our interior stairs in a house built in the late 1970s. This was due to structural concerns, not part of a larger remodel, which meant the old stairs had to be removed and replaced without damaging existing flooring or walls. We had the stairs factory built and then Construction Systems demo-ed the old stairs, installed the new ones, and performed the finishing work. We are thrilled with the result. Highlights: Fantastic communication: From first contact to completion of the project, Joe was more responsive than any contractor we have worked with. Problem solving: This was a very tricky project, with lots of on-the-fly decisions required. The foreman on the project did an amazing job of assessing each situation, consulting us when appropriate, and making the best decision under the circumstances. Flexibility: We had a number of hiccups along the way because we chose to have the stair manufacturer install the railings. We should have had Construction Systems do the railings! The railing installation turned into a nightmare with numerous re-dos needed, requiring Construction Systems to modify their schedule to accommodate problems caused by the other contractor. At each step, Construction Systems worked with us to keep things on track so that we could get back to a livable, safe environment for our family. Construction Systems is very busy. They do a great job juggling all of their various projects and weave them together as efficiently as possible. (They don’t stand around watching paint dry. They do a coat, jump to a different job, then come back to do another coat.) This allows them to be flexible when problems arise on your end (like they did for us) but also requires flexibility from their clients. Reasonable pricing and settlement: We had large construction companies literally bid 3 times as much for the same work. As with any project like this, there were changes in scope along the way and Construction Systems was fair and reasonable at every step. Cleanliness and care: The work crew protected our wood floors and cleaned up thoroughly as they went, minimizing construction dust and making us feel like they truly cared about taking care of our home.

I highly recommend Construction Systems of Virginia as a painting, wall covering and remodeling company. We used them for a custom-remodeling project on our basement and for a full-house painting. They were excellent, highly-skilled and efficient. The colors that were chosen based on their recommendations look beautiful in our home and also the unique craftsmanship of special custom features in our basement look extraordinary.
