Report
I purchased a commercial building that needed a significant amount of demolition and construction work in order to make it usable for my business. I also had a very tight timeline. I had an excellent experience working with Descco. The project manager for my project, Eric Peterson, went to great lengths to accommodate my needs and every Descco employee who worked on my site was pleasant, experienced, and accommodating. My project had a lot of twist and turns, change orders, and last minute changes. The Descco team just rolled with my every need and request. In the end, my project finished on time

I at first had reservations about hiring DESCCO for my residential bridge construction. I knew that they were the premiere company for Berks County commercial bridge projects, so I figured that my project might be too small for them to be interested. I was quickly proved wrong. Sales VP Eric Peterson made the time to meet with me and size up the work. It didn't take long before I received the comprehensive quote on the required work and pricing. I was pleasantly surprised that the costs were fair and reasonable.
