"Great communication throughout the project. The new deck looks fantastic. Very respectful of the property and their crew was polite and cleaned up each day. The work was done on time and on budget."
"Miguel and his team of contractors were responsive, prompt and professional for the multiple jobs I required. My project entailed repainting two large rooms, installing an audio soundbar with wires snaked behind wall, fixing two closet doors, installing blinds and curtains, patching up a small hole in our wall and touching up paint in two other rooms. They accomplished this in one day, no questions asked, at the quoted rate with no upcharge to the estimate. They also vacuumed when finished and cleaned up very well. When they were packing up to leave after working 12 hours, there was an issue with my cable television - no service. They stayed with me while I was on the line with Comcast to ensure my cable TV was working properly. Turned out it was an issue with Comcast's service and my cable box needed a complete reboot. Point is, they cared and were willing to stay late to ensure everything was working properly. From my experience, the level of service and customer care is second to none. Miguel's attention to detail, cleanliness, price and professionalism cannot be overlooked. After dealing with quite a few contractors in the past who were expensive, late, lethargic, unresponsive and unprofessional I will now call M.A.S for all of my general contracting/painting needs: both large and small."
"Cesar and his crew just finished a remodel of my master bathroom. This is the second major project completed in my home by CSZ (prior kitchen remodel) and once again they exceeded my expectations. Cesar worked with me along the way to come up with the perfect design to ensure all my requirements were met. He is knowledgeable and his attention to detail is second to none. The CSZ crew, Armondo and Benjamin were also a pleasure to work with. They are knowledgeable, trustworthy, and hardworking. They also did an exceptional job cleaning up at the end of each work day. My dog even loves them! I highly recommend CSZ Construction. They will most certainly be back for future projects in my home!"
"The work was excellent. You can't tell the difference of the old wall (1939). I would highly recommend them for work. Was done fast. Left the area clean. Was very impressed. Will definitely be using them again!"
"We hired Peter Dorizas from Dorhos Management, LLC and he was an excellent painter and very reasonably priced. He also did other things that needed fixing and cleaned everything up. I would definitely recommend him."
"Freddy and his team are great. They are organized, neat and cleaned up once job was completed. They did a great job pairing my foyer and hallways which contained many detailed moldings. Highly recommended!"
"Highly recommended! Rafael was responsive, professional, flexible, and creative in finding solutions. He and his skilled crew were able to complete a series of masonry and carpentry projects in a timely manner. It was a pleasure to work with him."
I pride myself on my professionalism, as well as my ability to complete every job to the homeowner's total satisfaction. I never leave a job unfinished, or a homeowner not 100% satisfied with my level of service - Call today!
You can nail or screw composite decking, but 3-inch decking screws are the better fastener choice. Unlike nails, decking screws won’t back out of the composite material over time. There’s also little danger of splitting composite material when driving screws, so you don’t need to pre-drill holes unless otherwise recommended by your decking manufacturer.

Furthermore, it is simple to spread, available in various textures and tones, and adds a polished look that complements any deck design.
