Testimonials
Your crews have been amazing to work with. Your engineering technician was super professional, patient, and one of the quicker air testers I've had on site. Your Project Manager has consistently gone above and beyond for us-he is incredibly intelligent and clearly a great asset to VINE!
I have had nothing but great experiences with the crews over the years and often tell others of the hard work and dedication your crews provide on every job.
I have found VINE's employees to be extremely hard working and conscientious, and willing to take on tasks and perform them in accordance with industry standards.
Mrs. Norwood, I just wanted to take a moment to let you know how pleased I am with the staff you have had on the job site. Your P.E. got the ball rolling and kept the Contractor honest for the first couple of weeks. His replacement was great - What more can be said about having a P.E. on-site with Lord knows how many years of experience? He was great. Your Project Manager is doing a fantastic job keeping the utility contractor in line. They are a great utility contractor and do high quality work, but do tend to bite off a little more than they can chew on some days. I appreciate him giving me the heads up when he sees something that might not be quite right. On a very busy job site, he is making my job a lot easier. It's nice to have experienced personnel on.
I wish to commend the Vine Laboratories team on this project. They have provided consistent high quality service on inspection, materials testing and documentation portions of our project. I recommend them to any CDOT project in these roles. CDOT would be pleased to work with them again.
I wanted to put this in writing, because it speaks volumes to your business. Our superintendent said "VINE's potholing crews found a utility in less than a day, that has previously eluded another subcontractor for more than two days with no success". I hope you pass this along to your crew, to ensure they know we appreciate their hard work! We appreciate your dedication to providing excellent customer service, and your ability to adapt to changing field conditions and requirements.
