Austin LoBue and his team did excellent work on two projects. The first was a wood fence and gate. They worked a good portion of the days in the rain to get it done. The second project was an extension of an existing sidewalk, concrete pad for hot tub, assembled a steel gazebo, and installed a chainlink gate. All excellent work and I highly recommend Austin LoBue! See more See less

We have lots more work to do in our back yard and Austin will be doing it all. In the market for deck, call ALC!! See more See less
Austin Lobue Construction did an outstanding job building our porch. From the very beginning, Austin provided a thorough initial consultation by phone and later in person, carefully taking into account everything we wanted and making sure no detail was overlooked. In addition to the beautiful porch, the team also graveled our driveway and built concrete footings for a container, all with the same level of care and precision. The craftsmanship is excellent, and the attention to detail truly shows in every part of the work. Austin and his crew were professional, hardworking, and reliable from start to finish. They showed up on time, worked efficiently, and made sure everything was done right. The final results exceeded our expectations. I wouldn’t hesitate to use ALC again for any future project and highly recommend them to anyone looking for quality construction work. See more See less
Austin came through for us after 2 other contractors flaked out on building a dock for us. He was efficient and tidy, cleaning up after. By the time we hired him the weather turned cold and rainy, but the job got done and we are very happy with how it turned out.

We had a disaster of a gravel driveway on a sloped elevation. It was mostly undrivable. I brought Austin in for advice on what to do with the mess of a situation. We ended up having him put in a concrete driveway. He did a fantastic job, especially impressive considering the challenging topography and needing to work around an electronic gate and property fence. The workmanship was outstanding, and the whole process was smooth. Estimate was accurate and competitive. Definitively going to use him again for future projects. Highly recommend ALC to others.

Austin and his crew installed a large cement front porch, with a 10 foot front roof extension and a 40 foot driveway on the front of my home. Work quality was above my expectations! Will be using ALC again for another driveway and a garage door in a few months. When you find a person who really cares about the quality if their work, tou'll want to use them again!

Austin does fantastic work. He’s on time, works hard, and leaves the place cleaner than he found it. He removed a large trellis attached to the side of the house and repainted.

I highly recommend Austin, as he is professional and worth the investment. See more See less

We hired Austin to replace a large wraparound deck at our home. He came highly recommended and has a portfolio of several other beautiful decks he has built locally. From his initial visit to do the bid, through completion of the deck, it was very clear that he is highly skilled, knowledgeable & professional. During construction, Austin constantly communicated with us to ensure we were apprised of and happy with his progress. He kept the job site immaculate, clear of screws, nails and other hazards. Austin consistently went above and beyond to make us happy. We would definitely hire him again, and actually just had him bid for another project! See more See less
Austin totally transformed my yard. He went way beyond what I imagined. He made me 2 flower boxes, poured concrete to define my yard, added rock and artificial grass. He also moved a chain link fence and added a white vinyl fence for an RV area. He was knowledgeable about putting a gopher barrier and what materials to use under the artificial grass. He was very attentive to detail and constantly was making sure I was happy with the work. I highly recommended him for any project you may have. See more See less
Austin Lobue took care of all our needs. The deck of our house we bought was coming away from the house and we found out shortly after that it was not permitted by the county and there were no engineering plans either. Austin jumped through all the hoops for us and took care of the engineering designs and county permitting process. After removing the old deck he replaced it with a beautifully structurally sound deck that will not only add to our houses value and will last, but we can enjoy all year long through our snowy winters and sunny hot summers.

Austin and his helper Jonathan are wonderful! They built a super nice shelter for my RV and other equipment. Austin dealt with everything…..permits, the POA, materials, building plans, equipment, plus etc. I was kept informed of everything in advance. Very talented and thorough! They were tidy and left the property neat and tidy….I highly recommend them! See more See less
Austin and his crew did excellent work extending our patio and pouring a shed pad. He’s professional, on time, keeps me informed well in advance of his planned on-site work, and he’s got the knowledge, skills, and experience. Would call him again if we have additional projects. See more See less
