Performance Issues
Christopher Venturini's review highlights a disappointing experience with Nevada City Engineering. He was told that he would receive a bid by Tuesday, but it wasn't delivered until weeks later. When he called the company multiple times, he was met with unreturned calls and emails. This lack of follow-through and communication is unacceptable for any business.
Exceptional Service
On the other hand, the majority of reviews demonstrate exceptional service from Nevada City Engineering. Andy Cassano, John Baker, and other team members receive praise for their professionalism, responsiveness, and quality work. Many clients appreciate the company's ability to communicate effectively and deliver results on time and on budget.
Variability in Services
Brad Peceimer's review notes that Nevada City Engineering has done multiple jobs for his company, all of which were completed on time and on budget. However, it seems that the company's services are not always smooth sailing. Al Salazar's review mentions that the surveying process took a long time due to government bureaucratic issues, and he advises patience in the process.
Recommendations
Overall, Nevada City Engineering appears to be a reputable company with a strong track record of delivering high-quality services. Many clients would recommend them to others, citing their professionalism, responsiveness, and excellent work.
