Manitou Springs Gazebo Building

I had used Rick previously and was impressed by his professionalism and hard work. I contracted with him to refinish my deck and gazebo with Restore. Rick suggested waiting until the weather had cooled rather than applying the product in the full heat of summer. As it turned out, the time he chose to work on the gazebo coincided with the horrendous September rains and my vacation. Being gone was no problem; Rick is trustworthy and he worked around the rains and had the job done in less than three days. Rick emailed me a picture of the finished work so I could review it and it looked fantastic. It looked even better in person. Rick had not worked with the Restore before but his work looked like it had been done by someone who had worked with the product for years! I am totally pleased with Rick's work, his pleasant attitude, and his creativeness in getting something accomplished and making it look easy and fabulous.

Delighted with the outcome and process was so much easier than I expected. Estimate was done quickly with detailed plans, showing really listened to what I wanted. Permit and final plans done quicker than I expected. Crew did a great job and introduced themselves. Very neat and clean cut. They were very familiar with the plans, worked hard and quietly. They made sure I was happy with each step -- including the stain color. Pergola is over a large, round patio with a stone wall containing multiple columns and openings. Pergola is a trapezoid and looks amazing. Complements the round patio nicely and gives much welcome shade in a yard with an unobstructed southwest exposure that gets a lot of wind. Two of the columns were not needed for the pergola posts. I wasn't sure what I wanted on top of those columns besides the stone top. Crew suggested adding shorter posts in them to be used for lighting or hanging plant baskets. Was very reasonably priced and looks fantastic. The job site was cleaned every day. They worked straight through the project and were not called off to do other jobs. Foreman Jack was involved an appropriate amount and checked up often. That was much appreciated. A quality business.

The projects went well and in many cases they went over and above what was expected. I will be hiring them to work on some inside projects this month.

Genesis Group is a very professional outfit.  I interviewed three deck building companies. Genesis was not the low cost bidder,but struck me as the best suited for my project. When asked about specific details of the bid, they provided detailed answers and not a generic response "Oh, we'll take care of that".  The owner worked on the bid and met with us to finalize the details.  They were responsive and eager to build the deck we wanted - not what they thought we should have.  Several times during the project, I changed the plans(several minor changes and one major change).  Genesis was not only able to make the changes,they were happy to do so.  The crew was professional, arriving on time and cleaning up after themselves.  I am a believer in inspecting the ongoing work and the crew did not mind me poking around.  The very few minor corrections that I asked for at the end of the project were taken care of quickly.  I would highly recommend Genesis to friends and neighbors.

Fantastic attention to detail and a very thoughtful design, much better than the others whom we had out for a quote.  The cost was in line with the others but the end product was much higher.  I definitely plan to have Chuck back whenever I need custom, high end carpentry work done.  Great to see a small business man do so well.

We've used Jake's Designs in the past and have always been impressed with their professionalism, promptness, and friendliness.  Jake and his staff are very easy to work with.  This project, like all of the others, went very well.  Their work is also under warranty so they'll replace any plants that die within the next 12 months and fix anything that needs to be fixed.  This project wasn't cheap but the work is always top-notch.

Found them on Angie’s list with good references, they came over and gave two estimates, one with both pergolas and the other with each built on different dates. They checked with the city and got all the permits needed. Each day, of the job, they were there on time, did a full day’s work and cleaned up after themselves. Very polite and professional, I highly recommend them.

The Genesis Group transformed our property. The outcome is quite amazing. There are two aspects to a major landscape project, developing a plan and then executing the plan. Barry Aho and his team are expert at both. Another important aspect is to be flexible as the project is implemented in order to accomodate changes, another area in which Genesis Group excels. They came to work early and stayed late when necessary. As many as ten people were working on our project at times. None of them is afraid of hard work, and as I told Barry, it is satisfying to see young people willing to work hard when that ethic is not particularly prominent anymore among millenials and generation Y. The work done by Genesis Group on our property was of a very high caliber. It looks great. Our friends and neighbors are jealous. A particular salute to Jorge who built the water feature. We had never imagined that it could turn out so well. Jorge is a pro of the highest order. He visualized the water feature and then brought that visualization to reality. We would not hesitate to recommend Genesis Group to anyone, and we have already done so.

It was a real pleasure to work with this group of professionals. From the first phone call to getting the job done, they were very prompt and courteous. They were up front and to the penny on the price, to all the changes we kept adding to the basic design. The finished product exceeded all expectations and we are very pleased with the craftsmanship and quaility of the work. These guys did a fantastic job.

This was our first major construction project and our call to Rob at Affordable Views was for a second quote on our project. After meeting with Rob to discuss what we were looking to do, we immediately felt that he would be the one we would work with. He was very knowledgeable and communicated easily with us about he project without being condescending. He was very respectful at all times, responded in a timely manner and provided great detail in his quote. We felt very comfortable with him from the get-go. He was very realistic and thorough about what the project would entail, the timeline it would take and what needed to be included in the cost in order for it to be done right. Once we hired them for the project, they were starting within a couple of weeks and the guys he had on site were AMAZING! They were such hard workers, paid such close attention to detail, were so thorough and took the time needed to make sure the job was done right. They did not cut corners at all and created a beautifully built, high quality outdoor living space for our family. I truly cannot say enough good things about Rob and his crew! Our project was estimated to take 4-5 weeks and I think we went to about 6-7, but there were some rain delays when they just weren't able to work. They minimized these as much as possible though and worked through the weather they could without being in harm's way or jeopardizing the quality of the work. Rob's quote did come in slightly higher than the other quote we received, but we feel that his was more thorough and we felt that due to the comfort level we had with him from the beginning, paying a little extra was worth it. After seeing the quality job they did, we truly feel that we received more than our money's worth and more! We have many interior remodel jobs to do in future years and we won't be looking anywhere else. We have found a top-notch company with Affordable Views/RJB Construction and they will be the one and only company we call - as long as they agree to send us the same on-site crew! Beyond pleased and we highly recommend them!
