Jerry took time to look at a non-paying customer's deck railings and side stairs, according to a June 2020 Google review. The customer said Jerry confirmed that replacement was needed for safety, even though he could not take the job then because he had too many pending projects. They praised his assessment and hoped he would become available for the work. Jerry Mazzola LLC's website describes interior and exterior home improvements and renovations in Acton, Massachusetts.

A February 2020 Google reviewer described a worker repairing rotten wood whenever more was found and painting a neighbor's house.
I have some repairs to be done for my deck railing (some rot) & side stairs to the house (extremely loose railings, cracks in posts). I have had a couple people in to quote the job, 1 said we only needed to put wood filler in the cracks of my railing posts....ummm, I'm no expert but pretty sure that won't fix the safety aspect. Anyway, Jerry said he couldn't do the job right now because he has too many pending projects, but he still swung by to look at the railings & stairs to confirm my suspicions that they need to be replaced in order to be safe for my family. He took time out of his day for a non-paying client and gave honest assessment of the work needed to be done. While I really want to fix the unsafe railings, part of me hopes I can't find someone else until he is available for the job!
Painting his neighbors house he game over and fixed the rotten wood every time we found some great neighbors.
