"I had an emergency roof repair and he came the morning after I called. Did a great job patching my roof the same morning. Great for me since we are expecting heavy rain in the next few days."
"Very pleased with the work GNB did on this deck project...They tore down the old deck and built a brand new one in a very reasonable timeframe considering the oppressive Alabama summer. I will not hesitate to use them again"
"Anthony is a great person to work with. He went above the call. He will be coming back to do more work for us. I will highly recommend him to do home repairs."
"We own a small business in the Dothan, Al area, but live out of town. I found Fred Klein through Angie's List and at the time there were not that many options in the area. Their company didn't have stellar reviews, but we decided to go with them. For a project that I was not able to directly oversee, it went pretty smoothly in the beginning. Fred was willing to work around our hours of operation as much a possible with a remodel of this type. Issues didn't really emerge until the end of the project. On three separate occasions, strips of vinyl fell off of the building. To his credit, Fred came out to fix the issues, but recently another siding issue came up and Fred has stopped returning calls. I have yet to personally inspect his work, but so far it's suspect. I will update this post once I am able to view the work firsthand. My biggest complaint with the company is that they took a $1200 deposit from me on 4/12/12 to install carpet "around Memorial Day." It is 6/22/12 and it has yet to be installed. Fred has not returned my emails or answered my calls. For my part, I am not always quick to respond either, but two and a half months is a bit ridiculous. About their professionalism, Fred wasn't aware that we have some personal friends that work for us. He would refer to us as "Corporate P*****" when he spoke to them and the rest of the staff. We spoke to Fred about this and he did apologize. Another unprofessional issue was that his son and the crew smoke and toss cigarette butts throughout the property as well as in the kitchen sink and the toilets. All in all, our customers like the looks of the remodel, which is great. Hindsight being 20/20, I would have chosen another company.
"Very knowledgeable of the work to do. Between him and his worker they have 50 years experience. We are set to start work on Monday. So hopefully it will go as well as the meeting."

If you have wood decking, there are several common deck problems that you might encounter. For example, your natural wood boards may fade over time due to things like sunlight, weather, and debris. On top of that, some types of wood decking can rot, grow mold, and attract destructive pests—including termites, carpenter ants, and woodpeckers.
Yes, an elevated deck can increase a home's resale value. Homeowners can expect a 65% return on investment from the cost of a second-story deck installation. For example, if you spend $5,000 to install a second-story deck, that deck will add $3,250 to the value of your home.
Composite decking might cost more upfront, but it delivers value in terms of durability. Unlike wood, composite material resists common deck problems such as rotting, fading, warping, and all the other things you don’t want a deck to do. The extra processes lead to a higher price tag, but you’ll save big in maintenance costs down the road.
It depends on the type of wood. The average cost to build a deck out of pressure-treated lumber is $15 to $25 per square foot, but more affordable varieties such as bamboo and cedar cost less at around $3 to $10 per square foot. However, when comparing the cost of vinyl decking versus wood decking, it’s important to also consider ongoing maintenance costs. For example, most woods require regular sealing to keep them protected against weather and rot.
PVC decking might be long-lasting, but this synthetic material lacks the natural aesthetic or sustainability of wood decking. If you want to match your decking to your new garden furniture or just freshen up the faded surface, it’s not usually possible to paint PVC decking. When comparing PVC to composite decking, PVC is pricier and more prone to warping in hot regions.
