I contacted AHS to help me with an exterior renovation project that included the replacement of my asphalt driveway, installing a new composite deck and frame to replace a poorly built wood deck and frame from three years ago, path lighting and steps, tree planting, the power washing of a stone deck and front walkway, and replacing joint sand with Romex joint sand.
Matt was my sales contact, and he was a pleasure to work with as he came by my house several times to discuss the project and help me with my decisions. There was never any pressure from him to choose any one thing over any other thing, and I appreciated his down to earth style.
Darlene was the designer, and she was excellent. She collaborated with me on the designs and produced terrific options that were wonderful. She was always open to suggestions and her designs were top notch.
Renat was my project manager and communication with him was terrific. He was always available to discuss the project, and he was open to both providing suggestions and receiving feedback. He was on site often to instruct the workers and to make sure that everything followed the designs.
I cannot write enough good things about the workers, who, without fail were outstanding. The were friendly, they worked hard (especially the crew that did the planting and stone pathway work as they had to remove a backyard's worth of river stones and then put it all back), and they always cleaned up at the end of the day. Terrific people and well trained.
One of the things that really stood out with AHS was that they allowed me to be part of the process, letting me ask questions and make suggestions if there was something that needed to change. I appreciated being part of the process, which was important to me. The project was a bit on the high side in terms of pricing, but it was worth the extra cost. The company and the people were professional throughout the process (things finished on time, and there was never a time when people did not show up as scheduled). The designs, the communication, the work, the people, all great. Plus, I was not responsible for managing the workflow as Renat took care of that. The project turned out GREAT and AHS was a superb company that did an excellent job.
