Austin Deck Waterproofing

Recent Review: Very pleased with the overall product. It took a lot longer than expected though. We were very picky and George did everything we asked him to do. Allied was our most expensive bid by far, however, the quality of their product seems to be far superior than others.

Recent Review: Mr. Jon Paulson, proprietor of JP Construction, was immediately responsive to our inquiry. He visited us the following day and provided knowledgeable advice about the problem, about the dwindling supply of Masonite siding and the difficulty of matching our smooth surfaced 'colonial' style siding. We discussed 'spot' repairs, replacement of Masonite with Hardi siding on that wall, and exterior painting either only of that area or or the entire exterior. The day following our discussion he provided a detailed bid for each of the components discussed and told us that he had located a source of Masonite siding. He also provided a full page of references, including both corporate clients and individuals -- perhaps 20 in all -- as well as a link to his firm's listings at the Better Business Bureau and Angie's List. I later telephoned to ask about the possibility of replacing all exterior Masonite siding with Hardi siding; he scheduled a brief visit the following day to calculate the square footage that would be required and submitted an augmented bid by e-mail that included this approach. During his second visit he offered to quote on sealing and painting our wooden deck; I decided not to do so at this time. His bids included a 10% Angie's List discount. We contracted with JP Construction on April 11 for repair of the affected area with Masonite-type siding, which he had located, as well as full painting of all exterior surfaces (the house is about 60% brick clad, with most siding in the rear of the residence). The bid specifically included other minor repairs where siding or door frames were showing signs of wood rot. Mr. Paulson scheduled the job the following week, beginning on April 18. He arrived with a foreman and two workers promptly at 8:30 a.m., reviewed the job with them and us and left his foreman in charge of the work. The team worked efficiently, paid attention to our concerns, and did quality work. The job included pressure washing of all surfaces and materials, removal of damaged siding and attendant downspout, spot repairs, caulking and sealing of all siding new and old, reinstallation of the downspout, hand painting two coats of paint on trim, frames, downspouts, soffits and fascia, then spray painting of garage door, chimney and all siding. The foreman matched the exterior color exactly. The team cleaned up at the end of each day and stacked and stored their tools, ladders and supplies. They were careful to preserve existing plants and vegetation. The foreman kept us informed throughout the process.

Recent Review: We received outstanding service and a great paint job from Carnival. They were the lowest bid. We usually won’t take the lowest bid because companies sometimes low-ball the bid and add extra charges after they start the job and find things they missed. In this case, though, Bruce Beltran was so thorough that we knew he caught everything. In fact, he pointed out things that other company’s estimators didn’t notice. We pointed them out to other estimators just to make sure we got apples-to-apples bids. After receiving the initial proposal, we emailed Bruce several times to get clarification or add things and he always replied by the next day with answers and updated proposals. Carnival said it would be 2-3 weeks before we could get on their schedule but Bruce called us 3 days after signing the contract and said his guys wanted to get started the next day. They showed up right on time on Thursday morning and worked all day. They pressure-washed the whole house exterior, as well as two brick patios and front porch, cement patios and walks, and a wooden pergola. Just as Bruce promised, the whole crew stayed onsite the whole day. By Friday at 5:30pm, they were completely done and cleaning up. At one point, they had 8 guys working on our house. It was quoted as a 2-day job and they made sure they got it done. All the work is clean, no paint spills, no over sprays. The paint on the house and the stain on the pergola look great. They also replaced a few rotten boards and a bunch of worn out door weather stripping. We have nothing but praise for Carnival. Highly recommended.

Recent Review: It went well! Alex came out and when he looked at our deck, noticed that a major reason for its degradation was a failing gutter that was leaking a large amount of water on the deck. Alex then recommended that if we wanted to get a new deck, we would probably be repairing it sooner than later if we also did not fix the gutters. He did a good job explaining why that was the case and it never felt like he was trying to push an additional job on us. He also worked with us to ensure we got a fair price package by combining it with our deck. The final product, both deck and gutter, look great and most impressive was the speed it was all done. From first quote to all done was one week! Would work with them again.

Recent Review: Of all the bids and proposals received, Capital Construction Services made the most sense and was competitive. It was clear they were well-versed and experienced. The job as a whole went very smoothly. Whenever we had concerns or questions, John listened and answered. One area of the deck was painted a different color that we were not expecting. Even though this caused a bit of delay, when we expressed the concern, John had his crew update it to match the rest of the deck quickly. We would definitely work with them again.

Recent Review: I HAD TO ASK THE PAINTER TO DO OVER SOME PARTS AT THE BEGINNING, BUT HE DID ALL WE ASKED EFFICIENTLY. OVERALL, WE ARE VERY SATISFIED.

Recent Review: It worked out really well. I worked with Karen, one of the owners or managers of the company. She was very attentive to our needs as far as picking out colors for the fence stain. She was really flexible working around the weather. We were very pleased with the results.

Recent Review: Beau, his brother Aaron, and Charlie did a superb job in performing the work that we requested--they deserve an A+ for their workmanship, courtesy, attention to detail, and our needs. Be assured that I am not exaggerating because I have evaluated hundreds of individuals as a requirement of my job and they are tops in the field of reconstruction and home repair. They are efficient, do not waste time, and give the customer the best value for their dollar. They worked for us off and on according to our schedule over a two month period of time to complete the tasks we asked them to perform. We would definitely call them back if we have similar work to be performed. Courtesy, respect of the client and their wishes, and professionalism were their greatest attributes.

Recent Review: David and his team went over and beyond my expectations! From the estimate to the finished project, I knew what to expect, when, and who would be doing the work. There were also several little things David fixed that others would've either overlooked or ignored. I appreciate his professionalism and attention to detail. I also don't know many who would stand outside during a thunderstorm to measure for a deck cover! I would hire him again without hesitation and recommend him to anyone who needs work done at their home.

Recent Review: The process was very orderly. David did the majority of the work but Dustin would assist at times. Both were easy going and a pleasure to work with. Each day prior to coming to the job, David would call me to tell me he was on his way. Dustin would call whenever he was coming over or to check to see how I felt things were progressing. The first job was to rebuild the floor to the laundry room. This was accomplished within a couple of days and it looks fantastic. I requested a door stop be added to the floor and Dustin did it without question. The next job involved rebuilding the steps to the deck. The original steps were too deep and were difficult to go up and down. I explained to Dustin and David how I wanted the steps to be reconfigured and they look fantastic. The steps are much easier for me and some of my friends to go up and down. The extra handrail provides additional assistance. The end product is better than I expected. The big job was to remodel or should I say build a small bathroom. Dustin selected the tiles, colors and fixtures. He brought the materials to me prior to beginning the work for my approval. I loved the colors he selected. I liked the fixtures as well. The only suggestion was the type of shower device which he changed. The original bathroom had to be gutted. My home was built in 1925. It may have been remodeled once since it was rebuilt. David and the plumbers had to remove all of the original fixtures (sink, toilet, bathub, tiles, medicine cabinet, lighting, etc). The plan was to replace the bathub area with a walk in shower. David explained all of the steps to doing this job. There were a number of steps which I can honestly say I don't remember all of the steps. Each day he called me in to show me the progress he had made. He suggested I move the electrical outlet up. It was originally near the floor which was not good since it was close to the shower area. A walkin shower was built to including tiles and accent tiles. The floor was tiled. Walls and ceiling were painted to match the tiles.In addition to fixtures grab bars were installed in the shower as well as near the commode. I cannot describe the quality of work completed. The workmanship was exceptional. As a side note, while they were working on this project, the ceiling sheetrock on the area next to the bathroom fell down. David and the other worker removed this material from the area without charge. That meant a great to me since I am on a walker and would have had to find somebody to remove it for me. Dustin came by to add some additional touches and to make sure I was satisfied with the jobs they had completed. I am completely satisfied. The professionalism displayed by Dustin and David beyond reproach and I would not hesitate to have Stanush Contracting do additional work for me or recommend the company to friends and/or relatives.

Recent Review: The job went great. We first got a quote from another vendor and they wanted me to supply the custom stain color (which we no longer had and couldn't contact the original painter who did it to get the color). Additionally, their quote was TWICE what 21st Century Paint & Roofing quoted me! Needless to say, we didn't use them. Then we called 21st Century Paint & Roofing. These guys were prompt, courteous, and professional. They did a great job refinishing all the wood and matched the custom stain color perfectly. They told me when some of the water stains and/or scratches might not come out completely and I appreciated the honesty. However, the water stains are barely noticeable. They really made everything look like new again. We encountered 2 issues, and both were promptly and professionally handled. One, was that one of the workers said that they would return the next morning, and he didn't. I did have to call, but when they called me back, they were very apologetic and immediately got someone else to come later that day and were trying to put another team together to finish the job on time, which it was. The other issue was that one screen got damaged when they removed the protective covering, but they took care of it right away and got it fixed. I would definitely recommend 21st Century Paint & Roofing for the quality of their work, their value, and their treatment of their customers.

Recent Review: Fantastic. Estimator and project manager were both very responsive. Team lead and PM were efficient and flexible. The quality of the work and the speed at which it was accomplished were extremely impressive
