Get matched with top deck staining pros in Gloversville, NY

"Ryan and his crew were extremely professional, punctual with great communication. Installed siding, repaired screen porch. It looks beautiful. Definitely would hire again."

"The owner Scott showed up, we talked about the work to be performed and we scheduled a date to start work. We then sat down and discussed materials, building permit, etc... Scott asked me if I wanted to handle the building permit and the materials. I have never hired a contractor so I assumed that the contractor typically does this part of the contract and I was a little intimidated. He then told me that he would take care of everything and he would even draw up a plan of what he was going to do and that the inspector would more than likely accept the drawing and give us the permit. I gave Scott a $13,789 deposit for materials and half the cost of labor. Then after several calls with Scott, he told me that the 12" pad that was preexisting structure was on, was not up to code per the building inspector and it had to be removed. I told Scott I would remove it, but winter had set in. So Scott and I settled on an early start date for construction in April of 2019. I rented jack hammers, a cement saw, a bobcat skidsteer and 2 roll offs(of which the roll off sank into my driveway and caused an additional $3,800 in damages). I broke up the cement and threw my back out in the process. I called Scott back to have his guys clean up the property so he could start work finally (late April). He came over, looked at what was left and told me it would be another 6 to 7. I said "hundred?" and he responded " no, thousand" then he continued by saying that he knows a lot of cops and he did work for them and when the jobs hit the ceiling of their budget, Scott worked out a payment plan with them so he could finish the work and make them happy. Now, my yard sits in rubble and my back was hurting. I contacted the local building inspector just to see why a pad 12" thick was not enough to build on and he told me no one ever contacted him regarding my property address. So now I sit nearly $20,000 in debt with 0 work done by this contractor. I want to point out that when I hired him, I went to home depot pro referral desk and they gave me 3 trusted contractors. I researched them all, looked over their websites, checked the better business bureau and made my calls. 1 contractor never returned my calls, 1 called back but told me that I was going to have to wait 6 month before he could even think about doing my project because he was headed South for work. So, I looked over Scott's info and he had an A+ with the BBB. The pictures on his website were plentiful and looked really professional. He had nothing but good reviews on his page. Seemed like a shoe in. I just, within a weeks time (today is 7/7/19), went onto his website again and noticed another person stating almost the same exact thing that I am posting here. I contacted that individual and they are pursuing legal action against him as well. DO NOT USE THIS CONTRACTOR. HE WILL TAKE YOUR MONEY AND RUN!!"
