"Did a great job replacing polymer sand and resealing my concrete paver patio. I had to stay on him about getting the materials I wanted. Polymer sand and sealant weren't what I specified. But he made it right and was delightful to work with. "

"I am still in shock. We paid Justin in cash. $500.00. When I saw his work, I asked my husband when he was to return to finish. He said, "He's done." My contractor that was there doing another project, looked at the bedroom and said it would be nice when it was finished. Unfortunately, it was finished. I don't even know where to begin. Streaks showing through irregular brush strokes. Drips on to baseboard. Justin lied to us and said he had applied three coats of paint, but obviously he had not. My husband and I spent many hours over the weekend completely starting over and re-painting the job. Justin did not return our calls or hold himself accountable for the atrocious work he performed. It was obvious he wanted quick cash. He did not honour my concerns what so ever and lied to us over various things. I am left with the feeling that Justin needed fast cash and didn't invest himself professionally in the work. Not his house, doesn't care. I trusted him and feel deceived. PLEASE do yourself a favour and do not let this person touch any wall in your home unless you are prepared to redo the entire project yourself at your expense or hire a real professional. This is the worst work I have ever seen. He did nothing to make retribution. He did not apologize. He lied and said my husband approved of his work upon completion of the project. My husband paid him cash in the parking lot and did not get the opportunity to have an inspection. He did nothing with the trim work and said that he "doesn't do trim work. No one does." Except that he did not mention that during our initial interview. I rue the day I met this thief and unfortunately, it makes me question Angie's list and all people that profess themselves professional. When I can do a better job than the professionals, you know they are suspect. BEWARE of Justin Nolting!!!!"

We specialize in most all construction trades and only sub contract out mainly mechanical components of the build process. We have a loyal and dedicated professional staff that can be trusted to deliver quality work on every jobsite. We offer free estimates and an opportunity to develope long term relationships with our satisfied customers.

"I had Cutter construction replace my old 12 x 14 cedar wood deck with a Trex capped composite deck (same size), as I had grown tired of stripping and staining it every 2 years. I had done research on capped composite decks and found out they were pretty reliable now. They were able to reuse the old pressure treated deck framing as it was still in decent shape, and I had them replace the deck floor boards, all the railing, the stairs, and fascia boards with Trex Transcend floor boards, picture framing, composite shells over the existing rail posts, Trex Signature aluminum railing and balusters with a cocktail rail, and new stairs. I also had them put pavers at the end of the stairs as I had problems with my old deck stairs directly contacting the ground, and didn’t want that happening again. They did a really nice job with the picture framing which also helps protect the fascia boards as the picture frame overhangs the fascia boards. The framing they added to put the picture frame floor board on also looked to be done very well. I had them use the hidden fastener system for attaching the deck floor boards and that really makes it look sharp. Mike was very aware of problems decks can have if they are not done correctly , which my old deck had where the flashing between it and the house was not correctly installed causing significant water damage to the walls contacting the deck, not to mention causing a carpenter ant infestation in the wall. It got to the point I finally had to have that water damaged wall repaired the prior year for some $3500 by Service Master 380 (who did a very nice job). Cutter construction is a certified Trex Pro installer which I wanted as Trex will guarantee their work meets all the requirements their warranty calls out for the warranty to be valid. Cutter also sends in the warranty registration for you. Cutter’s estimate was the middle of the 3 estimates I got. I went with Cutter due it being a certified Trex Pro installer, having installed many decks, and due to the numerous discussions I had with Mike Cutter prior to them even giving me an estimate or me giving them the job. The final invoice was about $170 more than the estimate due to some minor changes along the way. As any issues came up Mike would contact me to discuss them. They were able to fit me in their busy schedule and got my deck done when they said they would. I also liked that they used saw horses to hold their material to keep from killing the grass. I am very pleased with the job they did and look forward to minimal deck maintenance from here on out."

Deck Maintenance questions, answered by experts

There are several methods of supporting a balcony. Very small balconies, such as Juliet balconies that don't include any usable floor space and don't need to support human weight, may simply require supporting bolts drilled into the home's structure. Cantilevering is a method that requires no additional exterior supports, and larger balconies typically need posts and footings to carry the weight from below.

Not all porch columns are load-bearing, though they can be. Some porch columns are simply decorative. There are ways to identify a load-bearing column, like looking for visible seams and a foundation. Also, check to see if the column directly enters the ground. In some porch installations, a contractor will excavate a hole to install a column into the earth along with a buried cement base for stability.

Both deck footings and deck posts help prop up your deck. However, footings are the bottommost parts of a deck that touch the ground. They’re usually made of concrete. Posts are pieces of wood that attach to the top of the footings with brackets. They run upwards and connect to the underside of your deck to support its weight.

Rot loves moisture, so deck rot typically impacts the parts of a board that stay wet. This includes the underside of boards, in addition to support posts and joists. However, any part of a board can rot, given the right conditions. 

Rescreening your porch can take a few hours to a whole day, depending on the size of the enclosure and the amount of screen that needs replacing. If you decide to have a professional handle the rescreening, be sure to get a timeline and a cost estimate so you know how long you’ll be without the screened-in space.
