"SK Construction was hired to install new sliding glass door, that were replacing a double hung window. Sean was extremely professional and knowledgeable about the Anderson sliders that were being installed. He was creative and gave suggestions to help enhance the moldings around the door frame for a custom look. The project was finished quickly and neatly and the crew was very easy to work with. Would definitely hire SK Construction in the future!"

Steel Penn is a Home Improvement Company serving both residential and commercial accounts. Our men are skilled in all areas of interior and exterior construction from building decks and porches, to window and door installation, to bathroom and kitchen remodeling, etc.

"I signed a contract to have my ipe deck power washed. While it was advised to stain at the same time, I chose not to have this service done by this company at this time. The work done was incomplete, the deck had areas that were not cleaned and the railing which is a softer wood, shredded on many spindles. There were areas of the railings that seem to randomly be sprayed and had inconsistent markings from uneven strokes. I initially spoke to Frank about this by phone. While most of the main deck was done well, and in my opinion was completed/clean, the areas stated above were not acceptable. I was told that he would send someone to the house when he was in the area. Two of our neighbors then remarked at how unsightly the job was upon entrance to the yard. I then sent Frank an email with pictures. He responded right away asking to come the next morning to see the job. The owner, Frank was rude and condescending, taking no responsibility for the quality of his work. He accused me of lying about the initial contract, saying that I crossed out staining the deck on the agreement when in fact I only signed to have it cleaned. I was shocked and disappointed at his behavior. He said that he told us the deck would look terrible-(that is his subjective opinion about cleaned ipe) the areas that were cleaned did look the way I expected, and in my opinion looked the way I paid to have them done, clean! He was not able to hear that, and as he instructed my husband to go in the house because he did not like his behavior, I asked him to leave my property, which he did. In the end, the young man that was left to try and fix the job, was very kind and did greatly improve the work especially the dirt left on the deck. He explained that he would sand the rails but in the end did not have the correct sandpaper or the correct nozzle to get to the small spaces. The owner said he should clean it as hard as it could, even if all the wood splinters. Fortunately the young man had better sense and did his best which did not include further damaging the wood. Seventy percent of the payment was made and they are returning payment for the remaining 30 percent, they don't want anything to do with me. Thankfully I feel the same."

Fernandez & sons masonry landscaping design Corp. was established over a decade ago. Family owned and operated, full service masonry and landscape contracting company. We specialize in stone work: including walls, walks, patios,decks, steps, stone veneer, fireplaces and chimneys. All work is owner supervised and satisfaction is guaranteed. Always a free estimate and satisfaction guaranteed.

"This is one of those companies you hear about that is super communicative about the job until you pay them and then......NOTHING. They came out to do small job at my home, and the next day one of the stone stairs was loose and needed to be re-glued. Sounds like a simple fix right? Come out and re glue the step and be done with it. NO. I have called no less than 15 times. Victor has promised me that he would be out to fix it 3 Fridays in a row and never came and never called. I am still calling them but now of course they know my number and don't pick up. I thank God it wasn't a larger job I hired them for. They are not reputable and they do not stand by their work or their word. GO elsewhere"

Dock Building and Repair questions, answered by experts

Bulging walls, cracks in the seawall's top or side, and the appearance of a seawall "pulling away" are all signs that you need repairs or reconstruction. The area around the seawall can also provide clues. For instance, you may notice water bubbling over in areas of your yard if your seawall has holes or cracks. The soil around the seawall may also appear to be sloping or sinking.

Repair costs range from $500 to $5,000, depending on material type, structural damage, and labor. Extensive piling or decking replacements increase the price.

Rotting wood, loose boards, rusted fasteners, and damaged pilings often require repair to maintain safety and functionality.

Minor repairs like replacing boards can be DIY-friendly, but structural or underwater repairs require professional expertise.

Here are a few other considerations before you build, even if you're convinced you're in compliance with the law:

  • Are you damaging the environment? Bodies of water are often delicate ecosystems, and building a dock can be destructive and disruptive to the wildlife.

  • Are you blocking access? Lots of people like to use a lake, so you need to make sure your dock doesn't block public access to the water.

  • Can you enclose the dock? Just because you can build a dock doesn't mean you can build any dock you want. Some areas don't allow enclosed docks, for example.

  • Do you need to follow any specific rules or guidelines? Check with the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Association (NOAA) Office for Coastal Management for any guidelines you’ll need to follow, including size and type restrictions.
