Agora General Construction

I can’t say enough wonderful things about Sam and his team. He is thoughtful, punctual, and respects your time and resources. He has excellent references who all sang his praises. The work was on time and his communication was unparalleled.

Sam was very helpful in seeing through our renovations/repairs. He was able to work with us and any concerns that arose, with much patience and understanding. His crew were hard-working and we greatly appreciated the end results.

Agora General Construction just completed a deck project for my family and we had an incredible experience working Sam and his team at Agora. Throughout the project, we experienced excellent project management, consistent and effective communication, and strong attention to detail. Sam and his team set a clear process for the project at the onset and effectively managed project development, transparently. Sam consistently communicated at key points in the project and was always accessible if we had a question or concern. Additionally, the Agora team had a strong attention to detail throughout the project which showed in the effective ordering of materials, and also the strong craftsmanship and construction of the deck. We've gotten so many compliments on our deck so far and can't wait to enjoy it for years to come. We highly recommend the Agora General Construction team!

Sam and Agora General Construction did a fabulous job from beginning to end on the remodeling of our basement space. Sam graciously and efficiently adapted to the changes and additions we kept making. He went really above and beyond in so many ways -- far more than I ever could have expected. He was a true partner in this process. He and his crew were terrific to work with throughout. And we are thrilled with the result. Even when not using the space to work out in, or to use the new soaking tub, I go down there several times a day just to admire the transformation.

We hired Sam to redo our front porch that a different contractor did very poorly last year. It was letting in rain water pretty badly. Sam had a plan right away to get it waterproofed after talking with me about my concerns. He remained in constant contact throughout the job and kept me updated every step of the way. He reacted quickly when one of the components went out of stock and suggested an alternative that I think turned out even better than the original plan. We went a little over the original budget, but him and his team provided quality work, were always punctual and gave it a very personal touch which is getting harder and harder to find these days. Will be keeping him in mind for future projects and would definitely recommend.

We hired Agora to renovate our primary bedroom. We had a tiny bathroom and quite a large bedroom so the project included tearing down walls and completely reconfiguring the space. Sam and his crew worked with us to bring our design to fruition. The project was completed before we expected and on budget. Sam was a pleasure to work with. He answered our texts and emails promptly and we found him and the crew to be completely trustworthy and respectful. We only ran into a couple of snags and they were remedied promptly without any pushback. We are absolutely thrilled with our new bedroom and bathroom. All the tiling, painting, plumbing, etc all completed to our satisfaction. We would use Agora again and highly recommend them.

We love our new bathroom and we are so happy that we decided to go with Agora Construction for this project! We did a complete tear out and remodel of a very large bathroom and Sam, the owner, was extremely easy to work with and very communicative from start to finish. The crew showed up on time every day and worked extra hard to get the project done within the estimated time frame and budget. We highly recommend Agora construction and look forward to using them again for future projects!

Agora finished a small bathroom remodel that another company left unfinished. They were fast workers but not very good at finishes or fittings. They had a good tile person, but the plumber took shortcuts that give the bathroom a less than professional end product. It's not worth doing over, but certainly not a quality renovation.

Had a terrific experience with the team at Agora General Construction! From quote through to completion, we found Sam to be extremely attentive, thorough, and flexible to our needs. The crew was very hard working and their craftsmanship was outstanding. We had a complete bathroom g ut and remodel. The team finished ahead of schedule and we could not be happier! Would definitely recommend and would use them on future projects!

From the beginning, we found that Sam and his crew were always available, which really eased our minds. If we had questions, if we (or they) thought something should be changed, they always had the time to discuss it. Sam was especially prompt, as he always got back to us the day we called and was always there when we needed him. This crew is extremely professional. They take pride in what they do, and they use their working hours efficiently. I was worried about moving some of our furniture, but the men from Agora Construction moved everything quickly and carefully, making sure not to scuff our new flooring! Along the same lines, if there was something amiss, they cheerfully came back and fixed the problem immediately. We will be working with Sam and his crew in the near future. He will be tearing down our old back porch (attached to the house) and rebuilding it, to include a powder room, space for laundry and space for a pantry with a couple of chairs. So to wrap up, we really have nothing negative to say. It was a completely positive experience, and we can say that we highly recommend Agora Construction for any residential needs you may have! Here is our project: 1.Interior: Front porch •Repaired and replaced front porch roof •Installed drywall ceiling •Insulated and covered a common wall (shared with neighbor) •Repaired wood, when necessary •Installed recessed lighting and a ceiling fan •Installed laminate flooring •Painted the interior of the porch •Installed and painted new interior door •Installed new exterior door 2.Interior: Downstairs •Installed laminate flooring in the living room and dining room •Repaired wooden molding, as needed •Sanded and painted both rooms •Sanded and stained the stairs and the landing 3.Exterior •Roof: Repaired the parapet •Side of house: Pointed the bricks

Refurb of old single story house. Found Sam to be extremely responsive and flexible. We had a delayed start but as soon as we pulled the trigger he had a crew on-site and working. He handled changes and additions extremely professionally. The crews cleaned up after each stage and worked with us to overcome issues. Highly recommended.

We had the pleasure of working with Sam of Agora General Construction on a few estimates for our house. Sam is always professional, a great communicator, timely and really listened to our needs to understand the work that needed to be done. He even brought in expertise in specific areas to get specialist’s opinions when needed. We would absolutely work with Sam and his team again. We are fortunate to have found a reliable, knowledgeable and skilled contractor in the area. Highly recommended!
