Gecko Projects Ltd

Thanks to Derrick and his crew we have a fabulous finished garage in two days. The workmanship and experienced crew were amazing men. From the initial setup to the finished product they were on time, cleaned up as they worked and everyone worked well together. Dedicated to their job. We would highly recommend the company!

We had received some really high quotes for building our garage because we were told that the lot was "tricky" and excavation would be difficult. We heard about Gecko and read their reviews. We thought they must be writing the reviews themselves they were so good but we contacted them. They gave a really reasonable quote, took care of everything (permits, timing, they even managed to keep our dogs corralled during the demolition of fences) and completed it really quickly. We couldn't be happier with the end product and can't believe how easy it was to get the garage done on such a tricky lot with no drama. I cannot recommend them highly enough. And they didn't write this review.

Gecko Projects is hands down the absolute BEST! When we were first discussing having a garage finally built it was a no brainer that we were going to use Gecko for our build as we know of Derrick's work that he and his team have previously done for friends of ours. From the very beginning Derrick has been nothing but awesome to work with. The professionalism throughout the entire process has been fantastic, we also appreciate being able to customize the garage to exactly how we wanted with our special requests. In the weeks leading up to and the start of the actual build we were always kept in the loop as to what was going to happen or happening so not once did we have any questions that weren't already answered nor did we feel that we didn't know what was going on at our house while we were both at work. We appreciate that fact that Derrick was constantly in contact with us at the end of everyday to check in to see if we had any concerns and let us know they schedule for the upcoming day.

We are also extremely impressed with the efficiency of the crew, not only did they go above and beyond our expectations with how quick the build went but with the high quality of workmanship produced...it certainly shows that care and attention to detail is taken by everyone on the project. Everyone was a pleasure to chat with and we also appreciate that fact that our property was never left a mess, cleanup at the end of everyday was impeccable.

We are very happy with our beautiful new garage, that being said you can depend on us for recommending Gecko to anyone we know who is looking for a new garage! Its been an absolute pleasure dealing with Derrick and the entire Gecko team throughout the whole process.

Thanks again!

We have nothing but good things to say about Gecko. Derrick has fantastic customer service and his team was quick, clean, and went above and beyond - We have dogs and the crew ensured the yard was secured before they left. From start to finish, the process timeline was clearly communicated. The garage looks amazing, we are so happy! Thank you!

After saving money for a few years, I finally had enough for a new garage. As I was researching companies, I came across the Gecko Projects reviews on the HomeStars website. I contacted Derrick and he got back to me right away which was followed by a site visit. After talking for 20 minutes, I knew that Gecko was the company that I wanted to build the garage. We ironed out all the details and as I was preparing for the garage, I realized that the fence needed replacement. So Derrick and his crew installed a great new fence and a garage at the same time. The projects were completed on time and on budget and there were no hidden costs involved. I couldn't be happier with the final products and I am very impressed with the quality and the workmanship and their attention to detail. If any other projects come up in the future I know that I don't need to shop around.

We found Derrick and his team by chance!
A neighbor a few doors down was getting a brand new garage. We happened to need siding, so I walked over and chatted with the guys to see what their pricing was like and weather they would even do JUST the siding.
I got Derrick's contact info and let him know we had been needing to FINALLY finish our garage. Not only was he professional and kind but he was also understanding and very accommodating.
Within 1 week of contacting him, we were able to get a quote and have the siding completed. The team was fast, efficient, and friendly! Great quality work.

We would 100% recommend Derrick and his team to anybody!
Thanks again guys!

Less than 1 week later, he was able to accommodate us and finish our garage

Derrick and his team were very professional and efficient in building our detached garage, we are incredibly happy with the finished project. Derrick answered all of our questions promptly and communicated with us every step of the way. Would highly recommend Gecko!

We hired Derrick from Gecko Project to build our garage. We built a 24x24 garage with insulation and forced air heating and couldn’t be happier. Derrick was great to work with from the beginning, was very personable and always quick to respond. He was able to give us a quote with a breakdown of everything we were getting and went above and beyond to help us with building a gate, extra steps in and outside the garage and a few other extras for us as well. He is definitely proud of his work and it shows as he thinks about what he likes in his garage and just adds it to his packages such as extra lights and such which is much appreciated. His prices are fair and the workmanship is top notch. Once the work started, the garage was up in only week or so. Always provided updates and never tried to nickel and dime us. Very knowledgeable with any questions we had and he was willing to provide assistance whenever needed. We are so happy with our garage and we strongly recommend Derrick and his crew if you need a new garage or to replace an old one, you will be getting the best.

I contacted Derrick in the summer to get a quote and he called me back within 2 days and arranged to come out to do an estimate. I had called another company as well but didn't get a good first impression. I had the quote from Derrick emailed to me within a couple days. I think the quote was reasonable and the nice thing was that in his email Derrick stated that "the cost to build your garage WILL NOT change during the build unless you request a change in the scope of the project that differs from the agreed upon terms". Now, with that being said, I did make some changes. Some of them last minute which Derrick had no problems accommodating! But, he was correct, the price of the quote didn't change. For example, I wanted to add a light fixture above the garage door so I could install a motion detector. He instead offered a better solution of installing a timer switch in the garage that I could program. Very nice suggestion and it didn't change the price of the quote. Another nice thing was that I had an old 4ft x 10ft shed that needed to be demolished or moved. He offered( at no additional charge) to have his guys come over and tear it down and remove it for me! Also, I had to remove a portion of my fence(which again, his guys helped me tear down and remove)so he installed some temporary fencing during construction to keep anyone from coming into my yard. It was just the little things that he did to accommodate me and it was also nice to hear when I asked " how much extra money will it be to do that" that his response was "nothing, no extra"!!
He was extremely quick to respond either by phone, email or text. His crew is great. They did an excellent job constructing the garage and cleanup of the site was also well done! And fast!! After the concrete set they had the garage built in 2 days minus the garage door(which his guys came over the next the day and installed) and the eavestrough( which his guys came over 2 days after it was built and completed eavestrough). Derrick was great with giving me suggestions as to what to add or things that weren't necessarily worth the added cost( having a gas line installed for a gas heater) for my particular situation. The components they used definitely seem top quality( garage door motor, switches, etc.).
My only problem is that I'll probably only build one garage in my life so I won't be able to use them again!!!! I highly recommend Derrick and Gecko Projects!

Derrick and Gecko did a great job building a new garage for us in Riverbend!  
Derrick was very responsive, made sure everything was clear in the quote, committed to the price with no changes and then met our very aggressive schedule.  
It was remarkable how quickly the garage was built once the concrete had cured.
Derrick was very easy to work with and always quick to respond to our questions or requests. For example, when we were out of  town he sent photos regularly of the progress and when we wanted to make sure the walkway would be safe for kids on Halloween, he quickly had the forms removed, brought in soil and contoured it to make it safe.
It was a pleasure working with Derrick and Gecko and we highly recommend them.
