It holds 4.9 stars from 24 ratings on HomeAdvisor and 4.9 stars from 24 ratings on Angi. A 2025 review says he showed up when he said he would, did the job quickly and efficiently, and cleaned up afterwards. In a 2024 review, Steve took apart and built a very large composite deck; the project took less than three weeks, Steve was responsive with straightforward information, and that customer called his quote the best in town. In 2023, Steve rebuilt a deck with composite and replaced windows with sliders for one customer, arriving when he said he would, finishing on time and spotlessly cleaning up. A separate 2023 review said Steve was fair and transparent and worked with the customer through changes to their deck project. In 2020, Steve rebuilt a deck for a customer who called him responsive and reliable with a fair price. In 2019, Steve and his crew built a screen porch in 2 days from start to finish, and Steve recommended an Azek composite to trim the job out; that reviewer said the price was fair with no surprises. A 2018 review said he patched some concrete work that now looks fantastic, and another 2018 customer hired Steve for an entire home renovation project. In 2017, Steve responded on a Sunday by phone, scheduled the work within a week, and took care of a wide range of fixes, some of them a little tricky.
