Deck or Porch Repair
Jordan and his team are excellent craftsman. They are a true general contractor with values and determination to meet the clients needs. They maintained a professional and respectful attitude throughout the project, even when unforseen conditions threw a wrench in our plans. They quickly adapted their aproach, communicated potential cost and schedule impacts with quick turnaround on estimates. I often received detaild daily updates with photos and weekly summaries of work performed. Weekly billing that consistently tracked with proposed budget and occasionally came with cost savings. I know it can be hard to find a reliable contractor but Jordan made sure I got the quality product I payed for. I will gladly use Second Gen Carpentry & Construction again.

Their carpenter's were fantastic, they made all the required repairs to the deck structure and did a great job putting down the decking itself. The management was very responsive for taking care of any issues.

Deck or Porch Repair
Jordan Tapia and his brother Clayton who did the estimate were top notch. I can not say enough about how professional and helpful they have been throughout my porch repair. This was a small project, but they were just as responsive and attentive as if on a big job. James, who supervised the replacement of three porch posts was also very professional and efficient. They showed up with the correct materials ready to go and left the job site cleaner than they found it for sure. I will definitely be using Second Gen Carpentry and Construction for future projects.

Commercial Deck or Porch Build or Replacement Service
Having completed my third deck with Second Gen, I wish I wrote this review sooner. Jordan was very professional and would take the time and effort to answer any questions I had. As a Real Estate agent, time is crucial when it comes to houses, and there aren’t that many contractors that I can trust to complete a job in a timely manner. These deck installations helped create more value to these properties which in return brings the properties more money. I will continue to use Second Gen for all my carpentry needs and would definitely recommend them!

"Thank you Rami, your business is always appreciated and I?m happy to be apart of any team you?re on. I am available anytime you need and I am grateful for the opportunities to be of service to you and your clients."

This company appears professional at quote but have zero basic carpentry, design, communication and customer service skills. We were bullied by Jordan for payments â so he could make payroll.â Substandard materials were purchased for our job initially and would have been used had we not complained. And the finished project is unacceptable by most standards. We have wood cut too short in multiple places leaving significant gaps. In addition, the finish work is appalling. Poor painting, caulking, sanding. This company is incapable of installing any kind of door. Carpentry 101 not even met. In addition, should we ever need to replace screening the entire fascia and doors will need to be removed. This was not the original plan. Jordan Tapia declared our job â acceptableâ to him and refused to correct the problems without us paying additional for his mistakes. He is a crook.

The crew from Second Gen Carpentry & Construction was very professional. They arrived at the agreed upon time every morning, provided ongoing updates throughout the project and kept the work area tidy. The project was completed in a timely manner even though extra damage to the structure was found at the time of dismantling the existing deck. I am very satisfied with their work and would not hesitate to use them again

Second Gen Carpentry & Construction was a joy to work with from beginning to end. They were on schedule, maintained a neat and orderly work area, and delivered our deck project below estimate, but exceeding our expectations. I can't find a single item to criticize. I'd use them again, and heartily recommend them for decks or other construction needs.

Jordan and his team at second gen carpentry built an amazing deck for my house. They were 50% cheaper than the lowest bids I found on the market, and surprisingly the quality of the deck is beyond my initial expectations. They were extremely professional throughout the process very mindful of the work space, they always cleaned up every day before they left, finished the project ahead of schedule and also passed on some savings my way. These folks are fully licensed to undertake other work as well, they were a revelation for me. Would highly recommend them
