Porch repair?

How did it go with Lineal? I have a problem with moisture in my front hall and under my porch and need someone with good analysis skills to determine what's going on as well as repair it.

Lineal did a great job! They are very nice and very competent. There's one piece of trim that's left to put one which has dragged out for several weeks, but it's not a pressing thing for us.

In terms of figuring out the problem, they were very upfront about not being able to see inside things and behind wood, etc. I didn't want them to drill and see what was rotten and what wasn't, so I took the risk that the bill would come in over the estimate and it did. They didn't do any extra work without checking with me first and were willing to do the extra work even though it made the job longer. Given the unknowns, they charged by the hour which I wouldn't necessarily suggest, but I don't really know how different the final amount would have looked.

As far as the work, they did everything the right way and didn't try to cut corners and were very nice about it the whole time.
