What recent reviews say

Reviewers consistently report that Exterior Additions delivers exactly what was promised, with crews who show up on time, explain each phase, and solve problems without extra costs. Staff like the team, the team, the team, the team, the team, and the team are named repeatedly for their knowledge, attention to detail, and genuine care; county inspectors have specifically praised the build quality, and projects from over a decade ago still stand up with minimal wear.

The company handles complex jobs smoothly, from the team-the team window systems to Trex decking to metal louvered pergolas, often improving on customers' original designs. Long-term responsiveness sets them apart: customers years later still get quick replies to questions, and warranty service (like free screen replacement after squirrel damage) is done without hesitation.

Common questions

Do they warranty their work?
Yes. Customers report free replacements (e.g., screens) and responsive service years after installation; a 13-year-old porch received complimentary equipment checks and adjustments.
Do they integrate with other contractors?
Yes. They coordinated with StruXure to integrate a metal louvered pergola and the team-the team windows into a three-season porch on a property with water restrictions.
What timeline should I expect?
Timelines are explained upfront and adhered to. The team-the team window orders took 2.5-3 weeks; typical projects are delivered without delays.

Ebony's core strength is consistency: reviewers experience thorough communication, timely completion, and polished finishes across 3-season rooms, screened porches, and deck rebuilds. Staff (notably the team, the team, and the team) guide projects through permits and design choices with professionalism and patience. One recent complaint flagged a month-long quote delay, but 99% of reviews praise fair prices, clean jobsites, and craftwork that exceeds expectations. Projects range from TimberTech deck resurfacing to full Eze-Breeze sunrooms with electrical and fireplaces. The team appears as owner and main contact; crew members show up on schedule and leave sites tidy each day. Reviewers frequently recommend them without hesitation and report plans to return for future work.

A Deck Above

Every review praises A Deck Above's combination of craftspeople who work methodically (measures twice, cuts once; crews stay deep in holes to set posts right) and project managers who show up when promised and leave sites cleaner than found. Staff like the team, the team, the team, the team, and the team are named repeatedly as both friendly and meticulous. Work spans treated lumber, composite, Trex, pavers, and screened porches on projects from demo-rebuild to extensions. Reviewers consistently mention no delays, permit handling without friction, and designs that solve problems (zoning issues flagged by others missed; hexagon pavers delivered exactly as specified). Multiple repeat customers affirm the value justifies the cost.

Almost all reviews celebrate the quality of outdoor builds and the professionalism of named staff like the team and the team, who keep clients updated and handle design decisions thoughtfully. The rare friction points stem from uneven communication during projects and a single estimate that never arrived. Clients praise curved decks, screened porches, 3-season rooms, and patio conversions, as well as the team's ability to handle multiple tasks (permits, material selection, retaining walls, pergolas) in one estimate. Service extends across Greater Charlotte, including Belmont, Concord, Cornelius, and Harrisburg.
