Deck

Dimitri and his team are amazing and so easy to work with. We tore down our old wood deck and replaced it with Azek. Dimitri is so knowledgeable, and was able to install an under-deck rain system so we can enjoy the area under the deck as well as the deck itself! His team picture-framed our deck and the stairs; it’s everything we envisioned. His price is fair, he’s lovely to work with, and the team is excellent. Everything the other testimonials say is 100% accurate! You won’t be disappointed with Dimitri and his team.

Nicole Benner

Deck Remodel

I had a lot of deck contractors come out to give me estimates on my deck construction. So many questions and so many different answers. I finally settled on Dimitri & Smart Choice Construction. What lead me to select this company, is how promptly Dimitri was, at getting back to me to answer each and every one of my many, many questions, always calm and never argumentative. I saw his work and that’s another reason, along with his answers, that gave me the confidence to hire him. This helped me to feel more confident in his ability to do the work and trusting someone who I never met before. His work on my deck, was as all his pictures on his website, just as professional looking! He would always keep me informed on the progress of the material ordered and when he would start. You won’t be disappointed with him. Again, Dimitri keeps you always informed and his work is nothing but quality!

2nd fFoor Wooden Deck Replacement

We are SO pleased to have chosen Smart Choice Construction for our new deck. The owner, Dimitri, is incredibly punctual and communicative.When I first had him out for a quote, he was thorough and explained the finest of details (like which screws would be used and how they would be fixed).

Dimitri (he is on site every day) and his crew worked quickly and what I thought was minimal noise considering the scope of the project. This could be my perception because the work was all outdoors, but still it was refreshing. They were ready to start promptly at 8am each of the 3 days they were here, and were never here past 4pm. It was pretty impressive. Not only were they quick and relatively quiet, they did an exceptional job cleaning up after themselves – no construction debris!

BONUS: One other thing that should make you feel good about hiring Smart Choice is that if they are replacing an existing wood deck, they have an arrangement with another company to repurpose that would for picnic tables and the like. I didn’t know this until we had Dimitri out for the quote, but every little bit of good in the world helps.

If I had one knock on the experience, it would be that I had to file my own permit. Having never been through that process and unwisely never having my lot surveyed, this was a little more of a pain than I had anticipated. That being said, Dimitri still started on the exact day he said he would when we signed the contract and the quote he gave me was SIGNIFICANTLY easier to digest than one we had for the same work. With the benefit of hindsight, filing the permit myself was more than a fair tradeoff, but it doesn’t mean I have to like it. 🙂

All in all, I really can’t recommend this company enough for your new deck. Hire with confidence!

Deck Remodel

Dimitri and his crew were fantastic. Dimitri was always on time, and was very clear about the schedule and any schedule changes. His communication was excellent, phone calls were followed up with emails.. He explained all the work that needed to be done, there were no surprises. Everything that was in the contract was completed. Every details was given his full attention. Our deck needed new decking and railing. He also had great suggestions to help preserve the existing sub structure. He used quality materials, and his price was very competitive. In the end our deck looks amazing. It’s all thanks to Dimitri and his team at Smart Choice Construction.

Excellent experience with Dimitri and Smart Choice Construction. I would not hesitate to recommend him and use him again. Pls reach out if you have specific questions.

Fern Vernick

kitchen remodel

Dmitri provided a brand new kitchen in my condo. His work was meticulous with excellent attention to detail and a reasonable price. The latter is important today when far too many contractors are gouging customers with spurious claims of expense of materials. The reality is they are simply recouping money they lost during Covid. Give Dmitri the opportunity to come out and talk to you about your next project. You won’t be disappointed.

Harold N. Boyer

Accessibility Ramp, deck and steps

Dmitri provided a thorough inspection and project discussion, offering design and material suggestion without a hint of high-pressure sales. He promptly translated that to an estimate and an easily readable contract. Once agreed, he provided a start date within 2 weeks. He and his crew were there when he promised, and they stayed on the job until completion. He followed up to make sure everything was satisfactory. The resulting structure is beautiful and complements the property perfectly. Dmitri gave a fair estimate, stuck to that price, and worked start to finish without interruption. He is a craftsman who is honest and easy to talk to. I highly recommend Smart Choice Construction for decks, steps and accessibility ramps.

Andrew Coste

Porch Railing

Working with Dmitri was great! He was extremely responsive from initial contact through to project completion. He added a railing to our front porch, and it looks like it was always part of the original porch / house design. I would definitely recommend him!

Julie

Backyard Porch and Steps

I am beyond pleased about the work that Dmitri and his crew did for me. They installed a beautiful back porch and steps at my home, and accomplished it all in one day. A last minute cancellation allowed Dmitri to schedule me sooner, so I was grateful. He is the consummate perfectionist, and he ran the show in a very organized, efficient, and professional way. I would highly recommend Smart Choice LLC for any decking work you need. You will be making a “smart choice”!

Patty O'Donnell

Deck remodel

This is the second time we’ve worked with Dmitri (the first being a front porch remodel) and once again we are extremely satisfied customers! He finished the entire project in just 2 days, ahead of schedule yet beautifully done with sturdy craftsmanship and attention to detail. Dmitri is easy to work with and we appreciate that he takes the time to go over all aspects of the project beforehand. His prices are reasonable and his work is superb. He clearly knows his craft! We will not hesitate to use him again. Highly recommend!

H Cannarella

Deck

Dimitri and his team were terrific. The job was started a month early and finished in a day and a half. From removing old deck to rebuilding was the smoothest process ever. I am very satisfied and glad that I decided to go with smart choice. I have already recommended to many, including my daughter.

T. Mary acquarola

Deck

Dmitri was excellent in all phases of the project. From our initial meeting to completion of our deck only three (3) days after he began construction. He is straightforward, intuitive to his customers needs and extremely conscientous of his work product. We will recommend him to anyone without hesitation!

G. DiCarlo

Deck

Very pleased with Smart Choice Construction. Dimitri and his team did an awesome job by replacing my old deck with a composite deck. Totally pleased and very professional to work with. Would highly recommend them. A+ all the way .

Joe Dagney

Deck Replacement

Dmitiri did a great job completely replacing our deck. He was very thorough going through the options for design and materials and drew up a detailed contract. We got a couple other quotes and Dmitiri was able to offer us higher-quality materials at a lower price. He also helped to make sure that all the needed permits from the township were obtained. Once we settled on the details, he gave me an estimated start time and was able to begin within a week of that date.

Once the work started, it was done efficiently and quickly. Throughout the entire process, Dmitri was always available to answer questions and was quick to reply to emails. After the job was done, the inspector even noted how he went above and beyond in the construction, doing things like including seals to keep water out that other contractors would sometimes skip. Shortly after the job was complete, I noticed a very small crack in the gate he had installed and asked him what he would recommend as a patching material, as I was fine making the repair on my own. But he ended up coming, unsolicited, to fix it himself.

It’s obvious Dmitri takes pride in his work and he wants his customers to be happy with the finished product. The new deck he installed for us is beautiful and I’d definitely recommend Smart Choice Construction to anyone looking to get this kind of project done.

Robert DeAngelis

Deck

We had our wood deck demolished and a new and larger composite deck installed by Dimitri. From start to finish he was an excellent communicator and always very professional. He is highly skilled and thorough in his work…we love our new deck! We highly recommend him and look forward to using him for other jobs in the future.

Elisabeth Hertzler

Remove old wood deck and replace with Azek decking

Dmitri did a great job replacing our deck he was on time finished it when he said he would and his craftsmanship was impeccable. If you are looking to have your desk replaced Smart Choice Construction and Dmitri is definitely the smartest choice you can make. Our new deck is beautiful we are looking forward to enjoying it for years to come. Dmitri Thank You !

Ron Lang

Composite Deck (New Construction)

I’m a researcher when looking to get work done and no one had better review stats online than Smart Choice Construction. Dimitri was quick and responsive from the first outreach, and when he came out to quote the opportunity, it was clear he knows his stuff. Great product and industry knowledge, detailed presentation of options and suggestions, it was easy to choose Smart Choice for our new deck build.

Dmitri’s precision, craftsmanship, and experience showed from day one when the job was started. All the steps he laid out for us happened exactly as he said they would, in the times he said they would, and the quality of his work was just as good as he is fast (incredibly fast work!). Also important: Cleanliness. My property was very clean the entire time, which was as surprising as it was satisfying.

Fast-forward to the deck being done: we love our new deck, its perfect and beautiful, exceeded my high expectations, and Dimitri has followed up to make sure I felt the way I do. Don’t look any further than right here, Smart Choice is the best in the area!

Christian Stagg

Deck

I found Smart Choice Construction when my husband and I decided to replace our existing deck with something more durable, larger, functional and appealing. From our first meeting, we were confident that we had made the Smart Choice, as implied in their name. We decided to build a wraparound deck with a waterproof patio underneath. Throughout the entire process, from deciding materials, designing the layout, discussing the contract, determining timeline, reviewing township requirements, inspections and construction, Dimitri impressed us with his instinctive knowledge that can be attributed to years of experience. Smart Choice leads with transparency and integrity in their work which left us with no surprises once the project was complete. If there was ever an obstacle, there was always a solution that was discussed with my husband and I before they continued. Every detail was executed beautifully with precision being of utmost importance. Smart Choice was accommodating with changes throughout the project including the expansion of our patio for a designated grilling area. I could set my watch to Dimitri’s punctuality and could always count on his responsiveness when necessary. I cannot recommend Smart Choice construction enough, look forward to working with them on future projects and will pass on my highest recommendations to anyone looking for a contractor.

Laura Gill

New Deck

Recently I had our side & back deck replaced and then added an addition of a stone patio. After my daughter found Dmitri’s company, Smart Choice Construction and read the reviews I decided to get a consultation. I was highly impressed with his professionalism and knowledge for the job. He took the time and explained every step of the process in detail. It’s very apparent that he cares about his customers and the work he is providing. He puts an emphasis on the detail in the work and that’s what sets him apart from other contractors. I am extremely happy with the end result and can not give him enough praise. Would highly recommend!
Thank you Dmitri

New deck 1 story high

Every phase of the project went smooth as silk. From the estimate meetings , contract review and signing, working with the township inspector, starting the project and six short days later an absolute beautiful perfect deck completed. You can absolutely see that Dimitri’s dedication in doing a perfect job – as if the deck was attached to his own home. Everything is professional and on paper. He picked up the cell every time I called with a question. When it comes to installing decks you know right away that you have the best deck guy on the planet. Guess what else the price wasn’t too low or too high it was JUST RIGHT. I love the pictures of the great job and so long handshakes. Nice touch to the end of a great working relationship. So can you see that I think this is the guy you should call for your perfect deck. I am going to get Dimitri to work with my brother for his deck too.

installation of steps and sliding glass door and kitchen remodel

We recently had Dmitri create an exit to our patio which involved breaking open an exterior wall, installing sliding glass doors and building stairs to our concrete patio. Dmitri presented as a very honest and appeared to take a lot of pride in his work. The project was finished on time and the results were amazing.

We were so happy with the results we invited him back to complete our kitchen remodel. Dmitri was very patient and worked with us to create a wonderful plan for our kitchen. He was very organized and kept the work site very clean. He supported us through all of the decision making process and made the remodel very easy. Because of his careful planning there were no hidden cost and we remain on budget. Dmitri was punctual and reliable. We also liked that he worked hard to recycle materials from our old kitchen as much as possible to reduce our foot print on local landfills. The kitchen was finished on time and the results were phenomenal!

For us it is also important that we really liked Dmitri as a person. He was very honest and detailed oriented. We have had other services providers in our home and often times they were not respectful of our home or our routines. Dmitri and the individuals he brought in to help were overall good people and it made the intrusion of construction much easier to bare.

Dmitri will be the first person we call for any future projects in our home without a doubt.

Front steps, deck landing, and new patio.

Recently, we had our falling apart concrete front steps replaced with a landing with steps to a new patio. We used Smart Choice Construction and they did excellent work with fair pricing! Dmitri Tourchiev is a wonderful person to work with and he is very professional. When he gave us his description of what he would do and how he would do it, it was obvious he really knew his stuff and we had perfect confidence in him.
He and his crew were punctual throughout the process and extremely reliable. When he said they would be there on a certain day and how long it would take, (which wasn’t long at all), he kept his word and they also cleaned up everything, beautifully.
Over the past year since we bought our home, I have been horrified by so many workers and companies, from plumbers, roofers, HVAC, and electricians. So many people today are not skilled or they are not honest or reliable. It has been so refreshing to have a person and his company with such high integrity!

Deck

Over the past few years we’ve made several home improvements, most recently replacing our aging wooden deck with one that incorporates a variety of synthetic materials. As disappointed as we were when potential contractors failed to follow up on our projects, neglecting even the courtesy of informing us they would not do the work, we should thank them, because it enabled us to finally make the right choice, the smart choice, Smart Choice Construction.

Working with Dmitri Tourchiev was a pleasure from beginning to end. He helped us navigate our options, envision our deck, and worked with us to make it happen as efficiently as possible. He placed a high priority on communication and was always punctual. While discussing the project and watching him work, it became obvious that he’s a craftsman who exhibits an extraordinary degree of attention to detail, and sets customer satisfaction as his highest priority. We love our new deck. Without hesitation we would choose Smart Choice again, and we give them our highest recommendation.

James Geckle

New Deck

Simply put, Dimitri of Smart Choice Construction is AWESOME. First and foremost, he is an honorable, courteous man who truly wants his customers to be 100% satisfied with the work he’s done. That means he listens to you and hears what you want done. He then explains, in detail, what he can and will do to make it happen. If you change your mind during the planning stage, he is happy to work with you on the changes. If something should come up during construction, he explains what’s going on and works with you to figure out a solution. As a result, there are no surprises during the construction process or in the final results. Second, and equally important, he does excellent work. He pays attention to the details, which results in superb craftsmanship and meticulous work. In addition, he is prompt when he makes an appointment with you and is willing to go the extra mile to keep the construction on schedule. AND he cleans up the construction site so that it is as clean, if not cleaner, than when he found it. All in all, I’m thrilled with Dimitri’s work and the deck is truly beautiful. When it is time to do my kitchen, Dimitri is the one I’m going to call.

Thank you, Dimitri. It was wonderful working with you.

Dimitri is truly a unique individual especially in the contractor world. He has all the qualities the most customer service oriented and demanding consumer would want. He is responsive, knowledgeable, polite, respectful and an absolute master of his trade making the ordinary look extraordinary. His knowledge and confidence when discussing numerous types of building materials and the way he carried himself made me want to hire him and that certainly proved to be the smartest decision I ever made. His pride in his workmanship and attention to every little detail made my deck project look like it belongs on a million dollar home. Want it done right? Dimitri is your guy as he really simply put is that good and exceeded any expectations I ever could have imagined. You will not be disappointed by any aspect of your process, so look no further. Smart Choice is definitely the right choice, period.

It went amazing! Kitchen turned out great!

Dimitri of Smart Choice Construction did an entire kitchen remodel for us and put new flooring throughout. He did an amazing job. Always comes through with what he says and his prices are very fair. Work is beautiful and I couldn’t have asked for a better outcome! If you don’t hire him, you are missing out.

Best Deck

After we met with Dmitri (Owner of Smart Choice Construction) we knew we had found the right contractor for our deck. He was very professional and knowledgeable and was willing to answer any questions or address concerns throughout each phase of the project. Dmitri was genuinely concerned with making us 100% satisfied and that was very refreshing. The product Dmitri delivered to us is by far the best deck craftsmanship I’ve seen. From start to finish he was top notch and we don’t regret a single thing. With regard to schedule he finished the project ahead of contracted completion date and always arrived as promised.

Kitchen Remodel

In January 2017, Dimitri from the SMART CHOICE CONSTRUCTION has done the remodeling of our kitchen. The entire work was performed fast and perfectly done. We could not be more pleased. Dimitri was on time, working without making a mess, friendly, and great craftsmanship. He made lots of great suggestions to what was to be done, when and how. He stuck to the schedule and completed the work early. We are very happy with his work, products and workmanship. We are glad that we picked him and his company to do the work. We will have him come back, if we need to remodel other areas in our home. Thank you Dimitri.

Kitchen and Bathrooms Renovation

The renovation of our kitchen and bathrooms is the second job that Dimitri has done for us, having previously built a deck. Given his excellent skills and work ethic, we knew from the start that we wanted Dimitri to be our contractor.

Some of the assets he brought to the job included: showing up on time, keeping us informed of the details of the project, making cost saving and design suggestions which were very helpful, making sure that we understood the project details, and always working hard to please us.

He brought an impressive variety of skills and knowledge to the job, and, most impressive of all, his work ethic is outstanding.

Thank you Dimitri for all your hard work on our most beautiful kitchen and bathrooms.
