"Rupert began the job on the day and time agreed to. He and a second worker carefully removed all of the existing redwood deck boards from the portion of my deck I had agreed to repair. They were careful to preserve all boards by prying them up from underneath (after removing the first board in the middle). They then inspected all removed boards for rot and fungus growth and other structural damage and sorted them into a still good, possibly good, and likely bad piles. I was asked to review each board in each pile to confirm which boards I wanted to re-use. They did a great job of categorizing the removed deck boards as I agreed with their judgement.
After removing and sorting all of the old deck boards, they then removed all of the old, rotten/deterioriated wood support structure that was causing "squishy" boards, causing nails to stick-up, and causing a generally uneven and uncomfortable deck surface. They then removed years worth of leave litter and rotten wood debris from the exposed concrete surface. Next, they built an entirely new and extremely solid support structure out of pressure treated 4x4 posts. This support structure was leveled and reinforced so thoroughly that I could just tell it would last for 30 years or so. 
They then properly spaced each board onto the newly-built support structure while using new deck screws to secure each. The whole job took 4 days but only because they took so much care and attention to detail in the work they did. The rebuilt portion of my deck is so solid and tight that I feel sure it will last for another 30 years. They will be returning to stain the old and new wood to ensure that the deck is protected for years to come from the elements, foot traffic, and lawn furniture. I wouldn't have rewarded them with the staining job if they didn't earn my praise on the carpentry/rebuild job.  I would recommend Summit Deck Doctor for your repair job. The alternative to repairing half my deck was to pay 4 times what I paid for repair. I feel like I did the right thing with Summit.

"Out of the numerous contractors we interviewed prior to selecting Dinh, many had charismatic salespeople who presented their services well. However, Dinh stood out in a different way. Despite not being overly talkative, he exhibited attentive listening skills and provided a tailored proposal that precisely addressed our needs. Furthermore, his pricing was competitive, adding to our satisfaction with choosing him for the project. Remarkably, Dinh single-handedly completed the entire project, displaying meticulous attention to detail and delivering repairs of exceptional quality. In addition to his impeccable craftsmanship, Dinh went above and beyond by assisting me in selecting the most cost-effective materials, as I was responsible for managing the material expenses. This exemplifies his dedication and willingness to extend his support beyond the scope of his primary responsibilities. Overall, we are extremely pleased with Dinh's work and wholeheartedly recommend him for any future home improvement projects you may have."

"We spent 3 months trying to find the right contractor to tear down and rebuild our deck. We hire Brian ONeill after receiving a bid and discussing the project with him. He listened to what we wanted and worked with us to come up with the correct deck configuration that we wanted. He is a true craftsman and exceptionally easy to work with. We couldn't be happened with the finished product and that he did everything he said he would do and was a complete pro before, during, and after. Thank you Brian!"

"Karol and his crew are very talented, efficient builders. We hired Karol to build a composite deck to compliment the pool we had installed in the back yard. It turned out beautifully. He is a great communicator and listener, prompt and reliable."

"Ivan, Sarai, Ismael and others were fantastic to work with. I hired New Generation to paint the interior of my condo. They did a fantastic job and I'm so very pleased with the results. I had lots of questions and they were very patient with me. They explained the steps they would take and I learned a lot about different grades of paint, wall textures, etc. Outstanding customer service. Punctual as well. Will hire them again when I get my kitchen cabinets done next year. If you need any painting work done, I HIGHLY recommend New Generation Painting. You won't be disappointed."

"Richard documented and itemized the work to be done in a good quote. This made it easy for me to select the priority services I wanted. While I bought the replacement door, Richard was helpful advising me what door to select, and an efficient Home Depot to get it at. Richard was patient while inspecting the work to be done, and explaining what was need. Richard began in a timely fashion, and worked with my schedule. i am very happy with the resulting door installation."

"Kasia was extremely responsive and kept me will informed throughout the project. We had a very tight time frame to complete the project and Kasia made sure it happened. The work was done quickly, professionally and was very high quality."

"I needed an arbor painted. We had it built about 3 years ago but the staining had faded. I bought the Tool Time big deal coupon for $350.00 for 4 hours of work. I purchased the deal early March, but had to email the company several times to actually start the job. It was finally completed in May. Spoke with Eric the owner over the phone but only met the painter in person. The painter stated that the arbor would need to be washed and primed and I agreed. We bought the materials like paint and primer. Was happy with the results. Didn't here from the company till August. For some reason, they were using an old email address instead of the one we were previously using to communicate. They did not try to communicate with me through Angie's list till 8/15. When I finally got the invoice, I was shocked to learn that they were asking $1500.00 for the job, which is more than I paid to have the arbor built, and about four times the amount of the initial deal. Eric's wife and I got into a heated, shouting argument over the cost. She states it cost that much because after the 4 hours, they were charging me their hourly rate. But come on! Over 24 hours of work to wash and paint an arbor? It didn't take that much time to build it. It ended with her request to email them with what I think is a fair price. I replied with an email stating that I would pay &800.oo on top of the the original price of the deal. That was in August and still haven't received a response. Seveal things went wrong with working with this company, maybe because it was a small job, there was not adequate communication going on. I wasn't given a quote verbal or written prior to the start of the job.
