I did a complete home exterior renovation with Exovations that included new fiber cement siding, soffit, fascia, windows, roof, gutters, shutters and porch columns. I was impressed with the whole process from start to finish. They seemed to have all their ducks in a row. During the planning and estimation process Joy Branch, the salesperson, was delightful to work with, was very helpful with ideas and was well supplied with brochures and samples of all the materials and products that were recommended. This allowed me to read up and compare products before making the final decision. She was also very responsive in getting back to me with regards to questions or revised estimates as I added and subtracted things from the project. They weren t the cheapest bidder on the job, but keep in mind that you get what you pay for. They follow OSHA lead safe regulations and practices when dealing with older houses such as mine that might contain lead.

When it came time to start the project I had a meeting with Chris Thomas, the project manager, and he laid out the whole schedule for me and they pretty much stuck to it. Chris reviewed the scope of work with me and was very patient with all my questions. The roofers, siders, window specialists, and painters were all courteous and professional and did good work. They showed up on the scheduled date and did a good job of cleaning up when they left for the day. With a project of this scope there were bound to be some surprises, and we did encounter some, but the whole team worked together to come up with resolutions. My only regret with the construction phase was that I didn t contact Chris sooner whenever I noticed something I wasn t quite happy with. When I did, he was very responsive and got the issue taken care of.

If I had to say anything negative about the whole project it would be that the landscaping did take a bit of a hit, but nothing that it won t recover from. Unfortunately the cash out refinancing to fund the project took longer than anticipated and the project started later than anticipated. My newly seeded fescue lawn did not like all the foot traffic. Also, a few of my wife s flowers got trampled, and a few branches on the Hydrangeas and Azaleas got broken, but Chris did tell me at the beginning that with a project of this size there was going to be some damage. Plus my wife is a prolific gardener and she leaves no soil unturned, so unless they flew around on magic carpets something was going to have to give.

If you asked me at the end of the two week project if I would go with Exovations again on another project knowing what I know now, I would have to say yes . If you re thinking about doing a home renovation project give Exovations a call, you ll be happy you did.
