    When S Scott Construction was recommended to us by a friend, the comment accompanying the recommendation was “they are not cheap by any means, but they are worth every penny.” Having had the pleasure of working with S Scott, we couldn’t agree more! From the moment we met Shaun, Larry and the S Scott team, we were impressed with S Scott’s level of professionalism, creativity, attention to detail, and unwavering customer service. From beginning to end, they were phenomenal to work with!Throughout the design stage of our project, Shaun and Larry patiently worked with us, incorporating our input, bringing clarity to our ideas and ultimately arriving at plans that provided everything we were looking for. Then, Shaun and Larry walked us through various construction options, and transparently and honestly explained pricing and timing implications of each such that there would be no ambiguities later on. Anyone who has done a home construction project will acknowledge this is highly unusual and uncommon in the industry.Once construction began, S Scott’s professionalism and strive for perfection became immediately apparent. The care taken during the demolition stage to not damage even a leaf on the nearby trees was as if our house and property was their own; the precision in construction with which each bracket and beam were placed was incredibly impressive; and the mid-project pivots were incorporated with ease. Once complete, the S Scott team went over the entire project with hawk eye attention and fixed anything and everything they were not satisfied with, unprompted by us and at their own expense. Most importantly, the team that managed our project was so warm, friendly and accommodating that we were actually sad when they told us their last day had arrived.If you are reading this and think there is no way any construction project went this smoothly, we would have thought the same until we worked with S Scott. They were just that good. And yes - they are not cheap, but they are indeed worth every penny and more!

    Could not be happier with the design and construction of our deck and pavilion. Shaun and Larry were fantastic to work with right from the start. We had made some mistakes prior to contracting with S. Scott (which included using a massively overpriced architect) which delayed the start of the project. S. Scott came in and we did an immediate 180 on the project ideas. They were also able to provide us with architectural plans for the pavilion and made great recommendations throughout the planning portion. As for the construction, we were extremely happy both with the product as well as their continuous communication from start to finish. Highly recommend!

    I am very impressed with this company. Both Shaun and Larry are extremely professional and very helpful throughout the entire project. Designing a deck can be a daunting task, but Larry walked my wife and I through each step, making the process much easier than we anticipated. The crew worked very hard every day and completed our deck ahead of schedule. Thank you S. Scott Construction for a job well done. I would highly recommend this company!

    The S Scott team was fantastic for our deck project. It was a challenging project given the amount of stairs on our property, but they figured out creative ways to help us problem solve. They held our hand every step of the way through permits and inspections.The quality of the work was very high, and we love the finished product. They use the best materials, and really felt like they had our best interests at heart.At the end, even when I was happy with the work they had done, they self-identified a couple of very minor things to be cleaned up and came back to give us a perfect product. I would definitely use them again if I have another deck project.Special shout out to Larry, the Operations Manager, and Tyler, the lead carpenter. They really went above and beyond.

    An absolute amazing company to work with. Professional, punctual, and very communicative. We couldn’t be happier with our show stopping new deck, along with some work on our pool shed! The workmanship is unmatched! Highly recommend and will only be using S. Scott from here on out!

    I couldn’t be happier with the deck that S Scott Construction built. It came out exactly as designed and even know it was a bit of a challenging project, they did an amazing job. The workers were polite, professional, clean and on time. Once the project got underway the communication was clear and and I was never left questioning anything. What stood out to me the most during construction was the exacting work. As painstaking some of the work looked, no detail was too small and nothing was overlooked. Even after work was completed, as a few questions came up, they were super responsive and helpful. I would absolutely recommend them to anyone looking for a new deck.

  • Review 7 (2023-11-29 - Rating: 5)

    S Scott did an excellent job helping us with the carpentry components of our project. We are pleased with the new staircase for our deck and the TimberTech front landing.Larry provided excellent service and assistance throughout the experience. He was always available for questions and provided timely answers for us to make sound decisions. He coordinated with our landscaping project manager to ensure the project remained on track and experienced minimal delays.We will consider using S Scott for future projects and would recommend their services to others.

    We tackled a outdoor deck project this past summer and solicited proposals from multiple companies. We opted for S Scott Construction as their professionalism and responsiveness was evident immediately as they fully analyzed the scope of the project and made excellent suggestions. We needed to replace a multilevel old deck, address drainage issues, reroute plumbing, reconfigure an abutting stone fireplace deck and work around mature landscaping. Shaun and Larry were a pleasure to work with as they addressed each issue and ultimately built a beautiful well crafted deck. The master carpenter, Herb, was superb and led the onsite workmen in executing the plan. My wife and I were very pleased with the work and would highly recommend S Scott Construction.

    Hiring the S Scott Construction team to redo our deck was the best decision I couldve made. Pictures dont even do the work justice, and theres more that could be said about the professionalism exhibited by Larry, Sean, Herb and the rest of the team. Such a pleasure to work with, and would highly recommend for anyone looking to create or remodel a killer deck. Kudos to you guys!

    We are so happy with S. Scott Construction and our new deck! Shaun is great to work with and super responsive! He has a great team working for him. They work quickly and efficiently but take pride in their work and do an excellent job. We would highly recommend S. Scott Construction to anyone looking to do a new deck!

    We had the pleasure of working with Larry and the S Scott construction team for our backyard pavilion. Larry was very professional, knowledgeable, and a great partner to work with during our backyard project. The team created a beautiful, custom, high quality structure that we are looking forward to enjoying for many years. Highly recommend!

  • Review 12 (2023-01-28 - Rating: 5)

    We found S Scott Construction through our landscape design company and could not have been happier with the way that our beautiful deck came out! From detailed conversations about what we were looking for, what our material/color options were, the team at S Scott were incredibly knowledgable and we cannot wait until we get our deck furniture in and get to really put it to good use this coming Spring! Communication was reliable and once construction started, was swift- I cannot believe how quickly the deck was completed! Thank you, Larry!

  • Review 13 (2023-03-02 - Rating: 5)

    Our deck project was challenging given the back yard configuration. Shaun Scott, Larry Baills & their teams can do approach served us well throughout the process. S. Scott Construction handled all phases of our deck project - from permits to the final project. We were most pleased with their guidance & professionalism. In our case - we were offered several options for a deck - ultimately gong with each recommendation S. Scott Construction made. The entire project was completed with minimal inconvenience and on a timely manner. We would recommend S. Scott Construction for your deck and outdoor structural needs. Bob & Meredith.

  • Review 14 (2020-06-29 - Rating: 5)

    I highly recommend S Scott Construction. Shaun worked with us to design a great space for our back deck, recommending the layout & material that came together for the feel we were looking for. Shaun & Larry on his team helped us through a difficult zoning issue, and we appreciated their coaching through the process. At the end of the project, they had great attention to detail, ensuring we were fully satisfied with the project. We are now enjoying the space, and know we made the right choice going with Shaun and his team!

    S Scott recently completed building a new deck and pavilion for us. They were a great partner throughout the design and build process while also assisting with remediation of existing water/insect damage along the way. Everything looks great!

  • Review 17 (2022-02-25 - Rating: 5)

    I highly recommend the S. Scott Construction team to anyone interested in repairing/replacing a deck. We replaced our deck recently and from start to finish, from designing the new deck to coordinating the permit process to driving in the last screw, we couldn’t be happier with our choice in SSC. In particular, Eric, Larry, and the rest of the workers were honest, professional, and regularly met or exceeded our expectations.Tom & Cindy

    The team at S Scott Construction is best in class when it comes to residential construction. They were professional, accommodating and provided the highest level of expert craftsmanship, completing indoor and outdoor projects at my home Shaun, Larry and the rest of the team were amazing to work with. Highly recommended across the board.!

  • Review 19 (2022-02-06 - Rating: 5)

    We had S Scott Construction build our Trex deck summer 2021. We could not be happier with the end result. Our project was more challenging than the typical deck build in that the dimensions were limited on all 3 outer sides: we had to be so far from our septic tank along the back edge, and we had just had a concrete patio and pathway poured on both side edges. We wanted stairs coming down on each side. Since you cant pull up pavers with a concrete patio, they had to be EXACT in their measurements, planning, and building. Everything turned out perfect. The owner Shaun and operations manager Larry were very responsive and knowledgeable, and the deck builder Eric was an absolute pro. There were a couple of small items in the final walk-through that needed to be addressed and they came back and made it right. Again, very responsive and accommodating. They stuck to the timeline they gave us (actually think they were able to start even earlier than they initially quoted) and we are thrilled with our deck. We would absolutely recommend S Scott to anyone! Thanks for the great work, guys!

    Larry, Shaun and the entire crew at S Scott Construction were fabulous and delivered the deck of our dreams! Their workmanship, professionalism, responsiveness and timeliness are what every contractor should strive for. We couldn’t be happier. Highly recommend!!!! 😊

    S.Scott Construction does amazing work! They installed a unique timber frame front porch for me that transformed the front of my house and made my vision a stunning reality. They will be installing a new back deck for me in the near future as well.Theyre Versatile, Knowledgeable, Courteous & Skilled craftsmen that perform remarkable, code compliant work.

  • Review 22 (2024-11-19 - Rating: 5)

    We hired S Scott Construction to build our backyard deck after considering several companies in the area. Larry and Tyler led the team with a high level of expertise and attention to detail, and it was clear they knew everything there is to know about decks and pergolas. They guided us through the design process, offering helpful suggestions to make the space even better than we’d imagined. The finished deck looks incredible, and it’s become the centerpiece of our backyard. We’re super pleased with the quality of their work and would highly recommend them.

  • Review 23 (2023-02-24 - Rating: 5)

    Highly recommend S Scott Construction & Design for deck replacement and construction. They removed our old deck, and designed and built 2 new Azek decks exactly as requested. They handled all permits required from our town, drafted all plans, and coordinated with our pool builder and hardscape team to make sure everything worked together seamlessly. I would use them again in a heartbeat!

  • Review 24 (2021-09-18 - Rating: 5)

    We had a great experience working with Larry and Eric for a new deck this summer. Larry was responsive, knowledgeable and made the process painless for us. Eric’s work looks amazing and our deck was finished beautifully in a timely manner. We are very happy with the final product, thank you!!

  • Review 25 (2021-11-23 - Rating: 5)

    Its tough to find honest, reliable work but S Scott Construction definitely delivers. Shaun and Larry were both upfront and honest with regard to the project deadline and pricing. On top of that, the work they do is amazing and of the highest quality. Highly recommend for any size project!

  • Review 26 (2019-04-05 - Rating: 5)

    Shaun Scott and his team are fantastic! If you ever need a carpentry project done, please do not hesitate to reach out to them. Shaun has done many projects for me over the years and they always come out great with a reasonable price. Projects include: Custom cabinets, custom baseboard, custom deck.

  • Review 27 (2019-02-19 - Rating: 5)

    S Scott Construction did a beautiful job with our deck. We used Azek decking that they helped us select, and a cable-wire railing that came out gorgeous. The crew-members are all lovely to deal with. Highly recommended.

  • Review 28 (2018-08-27 - Rating: 5)

    Shaun and his team replaced our deck and did an amazing job. They are very detail oriented and constucted a deck that we will admire and enjoy forever. Shaun was always available to speak with and we especially want to thank Eric who built the deck. Thank you all.

  • Review 29 (2018-06-18 - Rating: 5)

    Shaun and his guys were all great. We could not have been happier with them or the deck they built us. The design was far better then we could have hoped for. They came in on estimate/budget even with some major hurtles getting the footings in. They were prompt, professional and meticulous in their work. I would highly recommend them.

  • Review 30 (2023-11-24 - Rating: 5)

    Great company! They removed an old landing outside and made it larger, installing new railings, etc. They also did amazing carpentry work installing ipe wood on our fire pit and the front of our grill. The end product was amazing, great communication along the way - and Larry is a really nice guy!

  • Review 32 (2021-11-19 - Rating: 5)

  • Review 33 (2019-01-03 - Rating: 5)

    Shaun’s work is exceptional! At a time when most companies (if/when they show up) do subpar work, Shaun goes above and beyond. From his design suggestions to attention to detail, Shaun he is the whole package. If there was 6 stars, he would have gotten it! I will absolutely hire him again!

  • Review 34 (2021-11-18 - Rating: 5)

    Larry was wonderful. He was always available for calls during the design process, had knowledge of products, and provided pictures with suggestions which helped us tremendously. Highly reccomended and no surprises with pricing. Very transparent, which made us comfortable.

  • Review 35 (2020-01-16 - Rating: 5)

    S Scott is absolutely the place to go to to build your deck/handicap, accessible ramps. Not only are they amazing people to work with!!! the work speaks for itself. This company went above and beyond to accommodate the need of my daughters ramp to fit her wheelchair and was apart of these amazing project. The deck and ramp is absolutely beautiful. No better place to go and get yours done. If we could give more then 5 stars we would. Again, staff are easy and professional to work with.

  • Review 38 (2024-02-05 - Rating: 5)

    We hired S Scott Construction to assist with creating our dream backyard that includes an inground pool, new decking and landings, firepit, outdoor kitchen, lighting, landscaping, and fencing. 9 months of planning went into the project and S Scott came prepared with architectural drawings and their A-team to complete the work timely and of the highest quality of materials. They recommended decking, railings, and outdoor kitchen appliances that we loved, and were always on time with completing the work. The S Scott team was very collaborative to work with to address all our questions and concerns. If you are looking for a contractor to do any type and level of carpentry work, I would highly recommend S Scott Construction and Design to complete the work. They are the best in the business and have far exceeded our expectations!!

    From start to finish S Scott Construction & Design were prompt and professional. They installed a Timbertech deck and railings with the highest quality of work. They obtained the necessary permit and scheduled the inspection literally taking care of everything from beginning to end. Both Shaun and Larry are very knowledgeable and easy to work with. The crew was courteous and at the end of each day they were diligent in leaving the area tidy. It is without hesitation that I recommend S Scott Construction and Design.
