Get matched with top deck maintenance specialists in Graton, CA

"CalPreserving was the total deal! I didn't know what all we needed and all the serves Iooked at seemed to offer only a piece of the puzzle, such as just power washing, or construction, or staining. This group did it all. The initial visit to assess the issues was informative and helpful. We could see our choices. They offered sound advice and looked at ways to save us money where it was possible. We ended up replacing about half the boards on the oldest deck. The finished product on both decks looks amazing -- like new. The workmen were thoughtful, knowledgeable, hard working, and polite. I was impressed that they even followed up with tips on maintaining the decks for years to come. I will definitely have them back every couple of years just to check on the decks and preserve the investments we have made in them. My highest recommendation."

"Matt is a very professional and knowledgeable guy with one of the best experienced crew who did an amazing job of power washing my pavers around my home and driveway. They were also hired to seal everything with an added enhancer that made the pavers "pop". They took great care of my many plants and expensive Asian decor that is around the home. I highly recommend Matt and his team to anyone looking for high quality work. Two of my friends have hired them based upon my recommendations and I feel confident they will be as satisfied as I am."

"They were on time and installed the handrails and shower grab bars. I should have gotten a written estimate as they charged $50.00 more than quoted."

"We can recommend Canul's Landscaping Services very highly! We used their services for re-landscaping our front yard in Rohnert Park. They were prompt to our inquiry and fast to schedule our appointments. Efrain and the crew were on time, very professional and courteous, and open to discussion of what we needed. They did a fantastic job! Now it's ready for our own planting! We will definitely use their services in the future."

"They did an amazing and meticulous job- I will definitely hire them for future projects"

"If there was a zero rating this would be it. I don't like reviewing companies in general but I cannot in good conscious let this go un-noticed to anyone that would like to have their home painted or stained. This company is terrible for so many reasons it's hard to tabulate. I hired Alex and Viv to paint my home and stain my decks. What started as a reasonable quote became the worst case of scope creep I've encountered ever. The entire job went from 12,500 to 22,000 (paint included) - All of which has been paid to date. Throughout most of the project, Alex and Viv were non-existent site/project managers and only showed up when they wanted to be paid. If there were issues (most of the time) - Alex and Viv would play good cop/bad cop with Viv playing the part of bad cop/bulldog while attempting to address consistent issues she would always having some excuse as to why something was wrong with the work and it would cost extra to fix the issues. Her demeanor toward me/homeowner/customer was terrible and frankly abusive. From day one it was a fiasco. I left to go on my regular walk/hike early in the morning and came home to find Alex's crew (Jose and Julio) had arrived, unloaded, and should have been setting up to start power washing - but NO - I come home to find Jose standing on top of the work van power washing the work truck in my driveway. I had a beautifully stained front door/entrance to my home that was aging and needed a lift - they stripped the door and re-stained it - the results were abominable - it's in describable how bad it turned out. I asked Alex to strip the door again and he wanted to charge for the extra work. They did stripe the door, but I elected to not have them re-stain because frankly these two clowns have no idea how to apply stain and Alex and Viv actually pressed that the door looked terrific! Needless to say the decks turned out the same and they stained the decks the wrong color! The crew were consistently taking days off from the job, worked slow, and took long lunch (sometimes longer than an hour), and played loud music throughout the day without even checking to see if it was okay. For the work and some of the issues : They over sprayed onto light fixtures, sliding screen doors, didn't actually paint/stain what was agreed upon, and now the paint on the house is bubbling in areas. I have contacted Alex on a number of occasions only to be scuttled with him mentioning excuse after excuse he has something else to do and will get back to me. In our last contact and what is likely a need for some kind of income, he expects to be paid cash to fix the things that remain damaged or that have issues AND wants to be paid cash upfront before any work starts. In the end, Alex and Viv are operating a sham business, using cash paid unbonded/uninsured labor that is not qualified to perform paint/stain work. Unprofessionalism doesn't even come close to describing their attitudes and work. Here's a short list of the issues for easy reference : 1) Power washing work van in the driveway 2) Do NOT know how to paint/stain 3) PAINT is BUBBLING in areas - wants to be paid CASH UPFRONT to fix it and is attempting to reduce his repair work with an unacceptable solution 4) Created DAMAGE on the house and expects to be paid for the repair work (sliding screens damaged, light fixtures were stained) 5) Parts of the job were NOT COMPLETED 6) Deck prep was TERRIBLE - hence just one aspect of ISSUES with the application results 7) WRONG stain color 8) Rolled stain or sprayed it with a sprayer (a huge NO-NO) and did not go back over the applied stain with rags to properly apply the stain as was agreed upon 9) DAMAGED deck post (ALEX actually did the DAMAGE - it's almost as if he did it on purpose because when he noticed the damage he continued doing more DAMAGE!!) 10) RUDE and UNACCEPTABLE TREATMENT of a client 11) Will NOT repair damage 12) UNBONDED/UNINSURED cash paid workers 13) EXPECTS to be PAID CASH UPFRONT for the repairs Alex and his crew created Net net, these guys should not be running a paint/stain business and should be SHUT DOWN immediately. I have asked repeatedly for an acceptable resolution and have been put out and blown off. If you would like to pay a couple lazy scam artists to make your home look worse than it was before they started - you should contact Alex and Viv Sharp at A&V Painting contract lic #802201. How this guy actually has a license from the State of California is unbelievable. I would suggest to NOT call these guys for anything let alone what they profess as their business. A note with regard to these other so called 5 start ratings - Alex and Viv had to have paid for these ratings. With my experience, It's impossible to fathom actually and certainly not beneath them to do."
