Constraction reviews in Alexandria, Virginia

If you want an actual description of how awful this company is check out reviews for "construxure," guessing they changed their name since all they had were accurate 1 star reviews.

Great experience having Alward put in a new vanity and painting. They were very helpful in ensuring the vanity would work in an odd space, and then getting the work done quickly. Everyone from the company was punctual, friendly, and lovely to work with and we are so pleased with the total new look of the bathroom.

Alward Construction Corporation is the contractor for several Home Depot stores in the Northern Virginia area, specializing in kitchen and bath renovations. When I ordered my cabinets from Home Depot, my designer suggested using Alward to install them. I’m certainly glad I did since they work seamlessly with Home Depot. This became important when I needed a couple of cabinet doors replaced due to defects. Alward and my HD designer got replacements in no time, thereby keeping the project on track.

Since I was not living in the house, It certainly helped that I was assigned a project manager who checked in with me daily to give updates and receive my feedback. But as with most construction projects, not everything went to plan. However, Alward was always willing to work toward solutions until I was satisfied. The head contractor makes customer service a priority.

If you plan to order kitchen or bath cabinets from Home Depot, I strongly urge you to consider using Alward as your contractor. They have the experience and professionalism to ensure a finished project that will meet all your expectations. I’m thrilled with my new kitchen. It’s beautiful and efficient, making meal preparation a pleasure. Thank you Alward and Home Depot.

They did a great job patching drywall after our electrician opened up walls and ceiling to run wires. They were professional and courteous, and the work quality was superb.

They worked with my schedule and did a great job for a decent price. We are very happy with our experience with American Aim Construction and will return for future home projects.

Dan and his crew have done an amazing job.
The workmanship is great, they took care of a big list including painting, deck power washing and stain, replacing electrical fixtures, backsplash in the kitchen, the vanities in the 2 bathrooms and other handyman tasks. It was a pleasure working with him and when we need work done in the future, he'll be the first one we call.

American Aim Construction is a top-notch construction company. I had them handle a bathroom renovation project, and their attention to detail and craftsmanship were exceptional. They communicated effectively throughout the project, ensuring I was always in the loop. The final result was a beautifully remodeled bathroom that added value to my home. If you're looking for a reliable and skilled construction team, American Aim Construction is the way to go.

I recently hired American Aim Construction to remodel my kitchen, and I couldn't be happier with the results. From the beginning, their team was professional, efficient, and dedicated to delivering high-quality work. They transformed my outdated kitchen into a modern, functional space that exceeded my expectations. The project was completed on time and within budget, and I highly recommend American Aim Construction for any home improvement needs.

I highly recommend working with American Aim Construction. They have done a lot of work in my home from work like painting (which looks great) and installing light fixtures to more complex jobs like redesigning my kitchen and replacing floors or removing wood paneling. They have a great, friendly team - especially Dan the owner. They are always willing to work with you on pricing and timing. I will continue to work with them for anything we need in our home.

Good

I recommend this company for the excellent and professional work they do in a timely manner

Amazing service. Mr. Juan came himself and proceeded to help replace the AC unit. I would call again.

would not recommend at all , the managers and owner are very poor . They do very poor quality work and are only working for their money . They claim they have a lot of experience but are only nothing but talk. They provide very poor service . Do not I repeat do not do any service with them! You will regret it .

They are shameless. They'll do the worst possible job. You'll be paying for their crappy workmanship for years to come until you finally have to just got your kitchen and start over.

I purchased my kitchen cabinets and installation at Home Depot in Dale City. Alward was the installer sent by Home Depot. I’ve been through multiple renovation projects, and this was by far the worst. I certainly won’t be doing any further renovations through either Home Depot or Alward. Here are just a few of the problems I experienced:
- When Alward’s crew damaged appliances that had been itemized to reinstall after the new cabinets were in, Alward refused to replace them.
- If I hadn’t been home watching and making corrections, some things would have been installed incorrectly – like a crooked cabinet on the wall.
- After the counter tops had been installed on the base cabinets, Alward sent a team back to finish the rest of the work and told me they’d be there until the job was finished. At the end of the first day, they called to say the team was being reassigned to a different project and they couldn’t say when they’d have a crew ready to complete my project.
- When things were done badly or damaged, Alward resisted making any corrections.
- When I contacted the store manager at Home Depot regarding problems I was having with Alward, the manager responded but never did anything – seemed more interested in protecting the relationship with Alward than making sure my project was completed satisfactorily.

Came to me as one of Home Depot's installers for a glass shower door. Eagerly responded that they would do the job. After radio silence for 2 days I get one email saying, "Unfortunately we will not be able to install the shower door." I call them and they said they wouldn't do it because the tile work was done by another contractor? Really? 99.999% of shower tile has been done by someone other than Alward Construction. I guess business is good that they can use bogus excuses to turn down business. Avoid them and go elsewhere.

For a Bathtub Removal/Installation

Bathtub contractor bait and switch or Incompetent Home Depot department?

The contractor Alward Co, aka ConstruXure of Alexandria, VA., was scheduled through Home Depot to complete a removal and installation of a bathtub.

After arriving and surveying the work area, the contractor representative asked me to sign a change order for over a thousand dollars to have the tile removed and installed, saying this work wasn’t explicitly stated in the contract.

That’s over a thousand dollars extra to remove and install the bottom row of tile, and 3x3 foot section of tile on the side wall for a regular-sized bathtub.

She asked for my credit card and asked me to sign a change order hastily drawn on the original contract.

Home Depot wrote up the order very generally as “tub removal/install/debris removal” so I assumed the tile removal/install was included in the contract, since you need to remove tile in order to remove the bathtub.

I believed the contractor understood this when they accepted the contract, but apparently not.

Again, I’m not saying this was a bait and switch, but the contractor should’ve clarified with Home Depot what exactly it was we paid them to do before accepting the contract.

Home Depot is also to blame for not managing this work order correctly because they did not list the specific work I needed done and then price it accordingly.

In addition, the work lasted three days (because the company didn’t bring a tile cutter and other issues) and there was no follow-up afterward from the person who came with the change order about whether I was satisfied with the work.

Conclusion: Not much communication between Home Depot and Alward Co, and they were not prepared for the work.

My company has been working with the Cleat team for several years and had a ton of success together. We have been consistently impressed by the team's professionalism, timeliness, and dedication to quality in their work.
