POLLI Construction, inc.

The work was fairly extensive, more complicated than originally contemplated. Throughout, each and every worker was thoughtful, on task, attentive to detail, making a near miracle happen… while also being new friends for my rescue dog! They basically rebuilt a wall while also replacing severely degraded windows, and also tending to new woodwork for the interior. Please see the pictures… beautiful.

I got Polli to come out first to get an estimate on getting my front porch redone. Complete rebuild. Full disclosure asked for quote with Trex. I know this is a lot more expensive than pressure treated. I also asked for a quote with pressure treated. The quote I received was $159,000 and change. For a front porch. So, I then thought that pressure treated would me way cheaper. Nope, only $15,000 dollars less. The next company I asked for a quote was nearly $70,000 dollars less for Trex and $100,000 dollars less for pressure treated. This is not a question of quality of work as I have seen the quality. It is very good. I wouldn't have reached out otherwise. But it seems they just didn't want the business. They could have just said that, and I would have been fine. I asked 2 other contractors what normal material markup was, and they stated 10% to 20%. 50% is outrageous. Needless to say, we went another direction. Also, the person who did the quote spent all of 5 minutes at my house. Took a few measurements and was gone.

We had Polli help replace a section of basement flooring that was water damaged. I had done the removal of the old flooring and they did the install for the replacement area. While I wish we had been put on their list a little faster (after the initial estimate meeting), they were very professional and the process was pretty seamless. I was particularly impressed with the professionalism of their crew. Communication was good and most importantly they were timely and did a great job cleaning up after themselves -- something I have not experienced from other mid size to large construction companies. They also did a nice job with "touch up" work like caulking and baseboard trim -- painting was not included in our estimate but they still make it look nice by doing the small things well!
