"Another job well done! We hired Frankie and his crew, Anderson and Ronnie, again for a second project repairing our large second story wood deck, stairs, and patio cover. They replaced all the wood posts with lag bolts, deck rails, stair rails, patio cover lattice, lower main post covers, and primer painted everything. They also ran electrical and installed 2 electrical outlets, indoor power switches, and 2 large ceiling fans and patched drywall inside and painted to match. Our black railing balusters with be installed after our house and deck are painted. Just like our first project, they did a very professional quality job! They worked all day every day in the hot sun until the job was completed. At the end of every single day they spent time cleaning up all debris. Everyone on Frankie's crew was very respectful, friendly, and accommodating. The end result was exactly what we asked for at an affordable price. Would definitely hire them again!"
