Schmucker Quality Construction LLC

Customer experiences with Schmucker Quality Construction (siding and related work) are mixed. Several reviews describe ongoing communication and scheduling challenges, including deposits being cashed with long delays before any work, repeated follow-ups needed for inspections, and instances of unannounced visits. Some customers had to guide the company on permit processes or verify permit status themselves, indicating uncertainty about who handles city permits and inspections.

Work quality and adherence to code also vary. Reported issues include porch posts not properly anchored to concrete, a claimed lack of necessity for a moisture barrier under siding (which the customer disagreed with), and at least one instance of materials or parts arriving that did not match expectations. In other cases, projects were completed quickly or to satisfaction, such as roofing, gutters, shutters, and siding replacements, with praise for professionalism, workmanship, and cleanup. A number of reviews note that after initial problems the company acknowledged issues, took corrective action, and followed through to make things right, while others describe prolonged timelines and unfinished or rework-heavy experiences.

Timeline stability appears inconsistent. Some jobs were completed in a matter of hours or days, particularly roofing or small-scale updates, while larger siding/porch projects extended over several months with multiple visits and fixes.

Practical takeaways for potential customers:
- Clarify who handles permits and what inspections are required; obtain a written permit plan and point of contact.
- Set and document a detailed schedule with milestones; confirm responsiveness expectations.
- Obtain a clear scope of work, material specifications, and part numbers; verify sizes and styles before ordering.
- Insist on corrective processes if workmanship, safety, or code concerns arise; request a written plan for any required corrections.
- Check references for similar siding/porch projects to gauge consistency of outcomes.

Overall, experiences range from satisfactory, timely work to frustrating delays and workmanship concerns, underscoring the importance of clear communication, a defined scope, and explicit permit plans for future projects.
