"I hired Long Island handyman construction group to remodel a 400sf basement and bathroom in Melville. They were priced in the middle compared to other bids. I picked them thanks to their out of the box advice which saved me thousands of dollars. There was one problem with the plumbing which cost an extra 1800 dollars. The owner settled with me 50/50 even though it was a pre-existing issue. The project was started early and completed early. All mess was cleaned up and the crew was very friendly and fully aware. Very reputable guys and very easy to deal with. Thanks Moises and Eddy."

"Gulf2Bay did an excellent job. Our roof was covered in moss & mold. After G2B completed their work, my roof looked new again. They did an excellent job power washing & cleaning our vinyl siding. They also cleaned our paver patio and composite wood deck. Both looked great. Several neighbors commented how great our house looked after G2B completed their work. It should be noted that they showed up promptly on the date scheduled and abided by the COVID recommendations."

If you live somewhere that experiences high winds and earthquakes, you may need to dig for your deck posts. Deck blocks, post anchors with base plates, and helical pile systems are the three no-dig deck post options you can choose from if local code permits.
