In an April 2022 Angi review, he replaced two sections of a wooden fence damaged by wind at a price the customer liked; a September 2022 Google reviewer says he installed deck stairs, railing and lattice and ran an exterior water line, on time and on budget. A May 2022 customer called him a no-nonsense, hard worker and praised the fair pricing and the time the project took. All of the written reviews date from 2022. The company holds 4.2 stars from 7 ratings on both HomeAdvisor and Angi and 4.5 from 2 on Google, and lists home repairs, carpentry framing, trim and molding, decks and remodels.

Mike did some deck work for me this summer. Installed stairs, railing, lattice and put in an exterior water line. Did nice work. Was on time and on budget. I recommend him.
Quick and super meticulous!

A great crew. Easy to talk to. No attitude.
Mike is a no nonsense, professional, a hard worker and easy to communicate with. I was exceptionally pleased with the completed project, the amount of time that it took and the fair pricing. I plan to hire him again for other projects. Kathy
