Are you licensed and insured?
Yes. Tenax Contracting holds City of Sioux Falls contractor license #17903 and carries general liability insurance, and we are glad to send a certificate of insurance before any job starts. If your town requires its own license or registration that we do not hold yet, we take care of it before work begins.
What areas do you serve?
Garretson, Sioux Falls, Brandon and the towns around them, see areas we serve. If you are a little outside that, ask anyway and we will tell you straight.
Do you take small jobs?
Yes. Our minimum is $200, which covers travel, setup and cleanup. If you have a few smaller repairs, put them on one list and we will knock them out in a single visit. That is what the punch list work is for.
How do quotes and payment work?
Send a few photos and a short description and we can usually give you a ballpark right away. For bigger projects we come out, take measurements and send a written quote. Most jobs take a 50% deposit to schedule and cover materials, with the rest due when the work is done.
Do you warranty your work?
Yes. For one year from the day a job is finished, if something fails because of how we installed or built it, we come back and put it right at no charge. That is our workmanship: flooring that separates because of the way it went down, a railing we built working loose, trim pulling away.
What it does not cover:
- The materials themselves. Manufacturer warranties pass through to you, and we will help you file a claim.
- Materials you supplied yourself.
- Normal wear and tear, and hairline or shrinkage cracks in concrete, which are expected rather than a fault.
- Damage from misuse, neglect, accidents, pets, leaks, flooding, settling, frost heave or severe weather.
- Work that someone else has altered or repaired after we finished.
- Damage caused by work done to the house after we finish, including foundation repair or lifting, structural work, plumbing or HVAC, or remodeling by someone else.
Call or text when you notice it. We come and look, and if it is our workmanship we repair or replace it, whichever makes sense. We do need to be allowed to look at the problem before anyone else repairs it. The warranty applies to jobs paid in full, and covers the repair itself rather than other costs or damages.
Do you offer payment options on larger projects?
Yes. Larger projects can be split into milestone payments, so you pay as the work progresses rather than all at once.
Can you handle a whole project, like a bathroom or basement?
Yes. We run the project start to finish, and any electrical, plumbing or HVAC is done by licensed trade contractors we coordinate with, so you have one point of contact the whole way through.
