We loved their ability to take an idea we had for a small deck and then add their expertise to make it perfect. They were prompt and communicated really well about when they were showing up and what changes they wanted to make to the design. They also started on time and completed it in two days. We love the final product and VIVO is a great company to work with. We have multiple projects we’ll continue to work them on. Great job! We highly recommend talking with Elmer about your project.

VIVO was fantastic. the entire crew was professional, efficient, and productive - with keen attention to detail. they were on time (they finished slightly ahead of schedule actually) and their prices were fair and reasonable. communication was great and any issues that emerged were discussed and resolved effectively. all in all, a great experience. they were a great partner.

Tremendous work. Some of the exterior woodwork had deteriorated and badly needed replacement. They provided a very reasonable price and were able to start and finish the project within a short period of time without compromising quality. I would absolutely recommend this contractor.

I was very happy with the job Vivo did on our historic fan house. They are very knowledgeable about how to fix any problems but still maintain the historical integrity. They did everything they could to be sure we were happy with the result. We will hire them again if we have any construction needs in the future.

We hired Vivo to paint the exterior of our house. They worked around the clock to complete the project in a timely manner and were responsive and friendly. Our neighbors keep commenting how it looks stunning and we are so happy to have it updated by a professional team.

We had an outstanding experience working with Vivo contracting on our home addition, and can’t recommend them highly enough. From start to finish, the entire process was handled with professionalism, care, and an impressive level of efficiency. The speed at which they completed the project was remarkable, especially considering the quality of the work too. Every detail of our vision was brought to life exactly as we had hoped—if not better. What really set them apart was their collaborative approach - they worked closely with us to refine and optimize the design, offering thoughtful suggestions that improved both the functionality and overall feel of the space. It never felt like a rigid process—they were flexible, creative, and clearly invested in getting the best possible outcome. Their work ethic was equally impressive. Showing up consistently and working six days a week, they kept momentum going without compromising quality. It was clear they took pride in what they do. On top of all that, they were simply a pleasure to work with—friendly, approachable, and easy to communicate with throughout the entire build. That made a big difference during what can often be a stressful process. If you’re looking for a contractor who is fast, skilled, collaborative, and genuinely enjoyable to work with, I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend them.

Vivo Construction was a pleasure to work with. Exceptional work, great communication and service. They did above and beyond what we expected. Even when we asked for changes after the fact, they did what we asked without any questioning. See pictures to see how great work they did. New recessed lighting, wood floor installation, knocked out 2 walls and installed arched openings, all trim replaced, walls and ceiling painted, and electrical work rerouted. All done to perfection!

Common Questions

Frequently Asked Questions About Home Additions and Renovations in Greater Richmond

Do you serve all of Richmond or just specific neighborhoods?

We serve every neighborhood across the City of Richmond, including The Fan, Museum District, Westover Hills, Windsor Farms, Church Hill, Bellevue, and more. If your home is within the Richmond city limits, we cover it.

My home is just outside the cities you list. Do you still cover me?

Possibly. Our service area is built around Greater Richmond, but we occasionally take projects in neighboring areas case by case. Reach out with your address and we will confirm right away.

How fast can VIVO get to my neighborhood after I request a consultation?

Within 24 hours of your request, we reach out to schedule the in-home walkthrough at a time that works for you. Most consultations happen within the same week, often faster for Richmond proper.

Do you offer same-day consultations across the Greater Richmond area?

Same-day is not standard for design consultations because we want every walkthrough to be thorough, not rushed. That said, we book most consultations within the same week and prioritize urgent timelines whenever possible.

Are you familiar with Richmond, Henrico, and Chesterfield permit processes?

Yes. We pull permits in Richmond, Henrico County, Chesterfield County, and Goochland County on a regular basis. Our team handles every permit submission and inspection in-house. You never have to call the city or county office yourself.

Do you have experience with older Richmond homes and historic districts?

Yes. Many of our projects are in older Richmond neighborhoods like The Fan, Museum District, and Church Hill where craftsmanship and code knowledge both matter. We respect the architecture and we know how to work within historic district guidelines.

Does your pricing change based on which Greater Richmond city I am in?

No. Our pricing is based on the scope and complexity of the project, not the distance to the job site. Whether you are in downtown Richmond or out in Manakin-Sabot, you get the same fixed-price proposal.

Are design consultations really free across the entire service area?

Yes. The in-home design consultation is free across our full service area at no charge. We come to you, walk the space, listen to your vision, and follow up with a clear written proposal. No travel fees, ever.
