Rebuild old front porch

Our old front porch was rickety and ugly. We hired Andrew to replace the flooring, railing, steps, ceiling, and partial walls on both sides. He also added insulation in the ceiling and surrounding cavities. The main bedroom is partly over the porch and we could feel the cold coming in there. His work was professional and finished in a timely manner. We now have front porch we are proud of, with a good sturdy floor, railing, and steps. Replacing the old aluminum ceiling with wood made a big difference. I had made drawings and taken photos of how we wanted the side walls and railing to look and he matched our ideas perfectly.

After he had finished everything we noticed that the steps were uneven; he had calculated the riser heights incorrectly and they were not all the same, making them somewhat awkward to climb. Andrew quickly returned, with no argument, and corrected the problem even though it meant a rebuild of steps.

I believed we paid a fair price for the work, and we are very happy with the results.
