Client Review on Exovations
Feedback:
Asked Exovation for a cost to add a Portico and Front Porch. He quoted a price of $200 per square foot. They are trying to make $40,000 profit for 2 weeks work... Hahahaha! Thats almost 3 times the going rate! Shop around! Guess you can wait around for a sucker at $20,000 a week profit!Didnt even get into pricing the covered back porch, and opening an exterior wall, ( pretty basic for good remodeling/framing crew) I was told we were going beyond there expertise. He then tried to tell me I needed a new deck to attach the roof, yet the roof wasnt attaching to existing deck. When I pointed that out he admitted it probably wasnt needed but he wasnt sure they would do the job unless they could do the deck as well which more than doubled the price. Hahahaha Guess they dont quote inspectors often. He did say he usually cant close deal with anyone in the construction industry.Ok since I cannot respond to the response from Exovations I will add to this post. The response from the sales rep is very dishonest or shows he wasnt listening. 1st off the roof for the back deck being quoted was a shed roof that was not supported by the deck in any way as it extended beyond the existing deck and tied into the house roof structure. I pointed this out to the sales rep that it would need to have its own footing and he agreed but said they wouldnt consider it without doing the deck. At that I said well that would more then double the cost and he agreed sp I said lets focus on the front porch and portico then. I had estimated the deck and portico to be approx. 250 sq ft. and had used average rate of $75 per sq foot plus an extra $6000 for columns to figure a price. By the way $70 is the going rate but since I wanted nicer columns I added on a few grand to compensate. When he told me he was thinking it would be over $50,000 I laughed! Thats is over $200 per sq ft. Then I said that they are way over priced and we could end the process. He agreed and said we are obviously not for him. (Again he told me earlier he usually could sell today people in the construction industry). When I walk him to the door he tried one more time saying well dont forget to have to block, back fill and pour your porch. He said that alone would be $20,000 hahahaha.... Going rate to pour a concrete foundation is $15 - $20 per sq ft., and he was trying to sell me at $80. Thats 4 times the going rate! At that point laughed, told him I could get it poured all day long for $3000. He said it costs them $3000 just for rock fill. Hahahaha (thats expensive rock!) I told him find another sucker and shut the door! Again shop around! They are looking for suckers! Youve been warned
