“The work they did was extremely professional. I'm in the trades my self, so I know the worth of a job done well. They took the time to make sure it was done right. A lot out of people are out there to take your money and run, but they did the job I wanted and made sure it was done right. I am very satisfied. I have a high standard, and they met it without a doubt.”

Response
We are elated to hear how happy and satisfied you are of the project, the crew and the result. We strive for excellence in every area of our team and craftsmanship. Thank you Gary for your review and feedback!

“This company was professional in all aspects. Charlie Crippen helped us think through options, was fair and a bit lower in price than other bids, and his team did a good job. They finished it mostly on time (only had to wait a day or so extra for parts) and addressed very minor things in a timely manner. Would highly recommend this company.”

Response
We are grateful you chose us as your builder! Thank you for the great review. We enjoyed working with you and appreciated all the communication. Thank you for trusting us with your project!

“CRIPPEN Woodworks is by far the best company that I have ever worked with. They were on time every day. I was kept informed about everything they were doing. All my questions were answered. Charlie and his team were great . Mike and the other project manager were outstanding. I can’t say enough about their outstanding customer service. I definitely recommend this company.”

“I thought the Best Picks ratings were too good to be true for Crippen Woodworks, but when I read several of the review comments, I was convinced that this was the company I wanted to work with. We could not be happier. Charlie and everyone on his team was a pleasure to work with. Their communication, care, and workmanship was first rate. Charlie listened to what we wanted, and with his expertise and willingness to entertain alternative design ideas, we now have a beautiful, low maintenance deck and usable space underneath to meet our needs for years to come. Thank you, Crippen Woodworks!”

Response
Thank you for the review. We really enjoyed bringing your idea for the unique skirting to life. It is one we are certain to replicate in the future.

“My wife and I interviewed several highly-qualified deck contractors – and unquestionably chose the best in Charlie and Crippen Woodworks. Our reasons were as follows: 1. Background in fine interior carpentry. We knew we were getting a skilled contractor. 2. Large enough to have a sophisticated operation / multiple crews, but small enough to ensure the attention of the owner 3. During the initial interview, Charlie highlighted a water/soil-grading issue that every other contractor missed. Small details matter! 4. Entire staff were employees, not independent subs – and all were long-time employees. Strong internal culture of quality. Again, small details matter. 5. Crew were professional, polite, and extremely hard-working. Staff cleaned up work area at the close of every day. Everybody was accountable. 6. Competitive and fair pricing. 7. Charlie was always accessible and on job site frequently. Charlie is also well connected – we had to replace a retaining wall that was failing – Charlie pulled strings to have this fixed quickly and kept project on track. 8. Everyone, from Charlie on down, were good people…in a way, family oriented & super friendly. 9. Finished product is A++ (see pictures – we couldn’t be more thrilled) and we have full confidence he will always be around if we ever have any minor service issues. We recommend Charlie and Crippen Woodworks without reservation.”

Response
Thank you Doug for the great review! I'm looking forward to seeing your project again in the spring once everything is in bloom.

“So glad we found Crippen Woodworks. Charlie is a good-hearted and committed craftsman. He brought along a lot of similarly dedicated and talented subs with wide-ranging specialties. His communication was great in that we always knew what was happening next and where things stood. Our screened porch is now our favorite room in the house!”

“I highly recommend Crippen Woodworks to anyone looking for a high-quality screened-in porch or deck. Our project included a back deck, screened-in porch with a high ceiling and beautiful skylights, a stone patio, Hideaway privacy screens, and landscaping. We couldn't be happier with how everything turned out and we love our porch and deck!”

“I recommend without hesitation. Absolutely one of the best decisions to hire Crippen Woodworks to replace our deck. Perfect blend of experience/knowledge (only company we interviewed to advise on re-grading soil to eliminate water seepage into foundation) + 20 years of deck building experience (got his start as interior finishing carpenter, skill (work was exquisite with fine detail), to explaining differences / advice with decking options, plus long-tenured staff (you rarely see this anymore), plus top-notch customer service, plus everyone were just good people. Final product is WAY better than we hoped, and I think we had high expectations. Hire this company.”

“Charlie and his crew were absolutely amazing. The quote for the work was reasonable, and Charlie worked with me on minor design changes for the existing deck layout. They hadn’t often worked with the decking I chose, but did a bang-up job of installation, including putting a water barrier on top of the existing joists so they will last longer. I would absolutely use them again!”

“Charlie and his team did a fantastic job in demolishing our old deck and creating a beautiful outdoor living space with a new deck and covered patio. The craftmanship was excellent. The materials and instillation quality were outstanding. They handled everything very professionally and delivered on time. The Crippen team helped us think through options and make the right decisions for our tastes and preferences. Everything looks even better than we imagined. And Charlie was a delight to work with. I definitely fully recommend Crippen Woodworks to anyone interested in creating a beautiful outdoor space.”

“We used Crippen Woodworks to build our new ipe deck and have all positive things to say. When we first met with Charlie, we got such a good feeling and sense of trust. He was responsive start to finish and very transparent about costs. Charlie took time to talk through options with me (wood vs composite, railing design, small details). Mike and the crew were always friendly, reliable, respectful of our home, and professional. I consider myself a perfectionist and am completely thrilled with the whole project.”

“Charlie Crippen and his team are one of the premier home improvement teams I have every worked with in Atlanta. From concept to completion they provided guidance and options to completely remove and rebuild our BackYard Deck. Charlie was flexible in design providing us with the maximum usage and expansion of our current deck within city code and building guidelines. His Crew has been together and they worked as a professional team throughout the entire project. They accomodated a couple of last minute additional that allow us to fully use all the aspects of our Deck project.”
