After meeting with several contractors, we decided to go with Victor for our rental property. Although not the lowest price, we felt confident going with someone who was so well experienced and knowledgeable with porch construction and the city code. Victor did not disappoint — Started and ended on time and on budget with zero drama. His workers were very courteous and cleaned up after themselves. Overall very pleased with the whole experience!

After we spoke with 4 general contractors, we decided to go with Victor @ 773-PORCHES when he was able to promise to deliver the porch we wanted at the right price. He definitely followed through by getting the plans drawn up and through city Dept of Buildings quickly, and had the crew out to teardown and build in a few months. Based on my past home rehab experiences, this was fast! Everything was done to code, and we now have a porch we know will last a long time. Our porch space was expanded by at least 5 feet thatnks to Victor’s experience and creative thinking. We especially like the fact that’s its perfectly level, no slope at all. It feels like our living space was expanded to the outdoors. There was one hiccup with reattaching our electric service line, but Victor had a crew member come back and fix. One note regarding porch replacement. I recommend you or electrician remove all wiring and fixtures, including telephone/cable, except service line(don’t touch that!) before the crew arrives for teardown. It will make everyone’s life easier. We were able to continue cable/internet service by running long line to house that was only partially in the way of the carpenter crew. I was able to save the electrical boxes and fixtures, saving myself $ 500 when it comes to reinstalling. It clearly states on the contract that porch contractor is not responsible for electrical. I’ll try to post before/after photo later.
