Jay is very meticulous, accurate, hard worker, dependable and neat. The finished product manifest each of these qualities He repaired my deck and it is now in better condition than before the problem. This when all the others said it had to be replaced. High quality work and a pleasure to work with.
Jay rebuilt my front porch (in Waltham, MA) quickly and without any shortcuts. He dealt effectively with the local building department/inspectors (who had no issue with the work). Jay answered all my questions and solved several problems in insightful ways. He is professional, knowledgeable, and his rates are very reasonable. I highly recommend Jay without any reservations.
Jay did a great job repairing our floor and subfloor after we had a leak through our exterior door. He also installed a pan and a storm door with extra frame. He was on time, cleaned up after a day of work, and the result looks great. He communicates well and kept us updated on progress. A really nice guy too! Highly recommended!
Professional, hard working, good communication.
