"THE GOOD   The interview went very well. I had a list of questions as to how the work would be performed and Mike answered the questions with confidence in every part of the job. After talking to him I felt comfortable believing the job would be done correctly.  We talked about materials and agreed on a price that was comparable to other bids. I told him I was not in a hurry. A different contractor said it would be 6 weeks so I guess in my mind I thought work would start in about that time frame. To be fair, Mike never gave me a start date.  This all happened in the middle of May.
 THE BAD   It took a week before we picked shingle brand and color and I paid an $8000 payment. 2 large pallets of materials arrived in the first week of June. The next communication with Mike was the last week of June with him saying the weather had slowed him down.The next contact was the middle of July. Mike said it would be a little longer. I contacted him again at the end of August and he said he was heading my way soon. I contacted him middle of Sept. and was told 2 weeks weather permitting. After 2 weeks Mike texted me saying it would be longer.  I replied with concerns about the material being on pallets in my yard for 4 months and gave him 3 weeks to start work or refund my payment minus material costs. He replied he had the permit and would start work the first week of Oct. Dumpster arrived on a Monday 8 days later. Some wood was dropped off on Friday. Work started the next Friday.
 MORE GOOD   Once the crew was here they did a great job. They protected my and the neighbors house during tear off and cleaned up every day. After tear off we discovered the addition roof tie in needed to be corrected which was outside the original bid. Mike rebuilt that and it looks and functions great. He did a lot of extras like disposing of some junk I had and putting some bolts in the front porch for a swing. He also partially roofed the playhouse to match the house(untill he ran out of shingles).I was very happy with the work.
MORE BAD  A week later I requested a paid in full invoice for taxes and the playhouse roof to be finished and Mike said he would take care of it.
It's been 7 weeks and still no invoice or finished roof on the playhouse.
FINAL WORD   If you want a quality job and have no time pressure then I recommend Mike. This was a 2 1/2 story hip roof and was not an easy job and took over 7 days to complete. That may have figured in to to delay. All in all it's been a roller coaster ride. He probably would have gotten here sooner if his Angies list A rating (and rightfully so in most cases) wouldn't have increased his business so much.

Small jobs welcome

"I hired A&K decking fencing and more to replace my front and back porch. Prior to hiring them, the front porch steps were loose, the railing was ineffective (for the front porch) and there was no railing on the back porch leaving quite a bit of a drop-off, not to mention it was sloping and felt unsafe. They were quick to come out and give me a quote on the spot and were affordable. The longest part was getting the permit from the city and as soon as that was acquired, they were ready within 48 hours to do the job. They kept contacting me to follow up to check on if I had the permit, which I appreciated their responsiveness. They did an excellent job of replacing both porches, went above and beyond in helping with my fence issues (the gate install wasn't done right by a different contractor), and were affordable for making those repairs. They also noticed that the back porch roof wasn't secure to the wood block and replaced that for me as well. Every step of the way I felt confident in the work that they provided. I would hire them again in an instant (and wish I'd have known about them when I had my fence done because my fence contractor was a nightmare). These guys are reputable, dependable, affordable, and high quality. I'm extremely satisfied with the work they did, the end product, and their level of service. Highly recommend."

"I want to begin by saying that I am hard to please. I usually do it myself if I can. I really didn’t plan on paying someone to do the work; but Liquid Illusions quote was unbeatable so I said ok. I don’t think that I have ever had a company care as much as Liquid Illusions and Todd. He and Blake did more than what the contract specified. They called when they said they would and they showed up when they said they would. They prepared and stained my house; prepared and stained my garage; and prepared, fixed and stained my deck. Because there was some overspray on my windows, yes, they even did windows. They also cleaned up after the job was complete. My house looks new and I could not be happier. I have other work that needs to be done at my daughter Lisa’s home and I will ask Liquid Illusions to do that work."

Deck Cleaning questions, answered by experts

Both a well-constructed deck and a patio can add value to your home. Patios are generally cheaper to build but don’t offer the same aesthetics as a quality deck. Therefore, decks can be more appealing to buyers than patios, increasing a home's resale value.

Both composite and PVC decking are excellent alternatives to wood. However, while composite is moderately priced and lasts around 30 years, PVC costs more and lasts longer. PVC is also more durable, though both materials are more durable than wood decking. Ultimately, the choice between composite and PVC decking will come down to your budget and preferences.

Yes, adding railing to a deck is a great way to improve safety and your home’s aesthetic appeal. Railings can be constructed from wood, metal, or composite, and there are plenty of choices regarding design and style. Always consult local building codes before starting any building project—there are often requirements regarding spacing and height that can differ slightly from place to place.

You typically don’t need a railing and handrails on a deck that’s less than 30 inches from the ground. However, consider adding them regardless. Railings provide additional safety for you and your guests who use your deck—plus, railings give the deck a more finished look than it would have without them.

The best way to clean your decking is to clear debris from the gaps between the boards, sweep the surface, rinse it, apply cleaner, rinse again, and let it dry fully. A homemade deck cleaner made of two gallons of warm water and 1/2 cup vinegar is a simple cleaning solution for both wood and composite decking. You can sprinkle baking soda on any spots with mold or mildew, then scrub the area and rinse clean.
