"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."
"I recently had the interior of my home painted, including 5 rooms, and I couldn’t be happier with the results. Dwayne was professional, punctual, and paid close attention to detail from start to finish. The walls look smooth, clean, and perfectly finished, and the lines around the trim and ceilings were sharp and neat. He took his time to properly prep the rooms, kept everything clean throughout the process, and completed the job in a timely manner. The color came out beautiful, and the entire space feels fresh and transformed. I highly recommend his services to anyone looking for quality interior painting. Excellent work, great communication, and very reliable!"
"We recently had SwiftBuild Roofers refinish the roof on our 1st floor, and we couldn’t be more pleased with the results. From start to finish, Chris was incredibly responsive and stayed true to his word every step of the way. The work was completed efficiently, and the team was super polite and professional throughout the entire process. Another thing that really stood out to us was how thoroughly they cleaned up after the job—leaving no mess behind, just a beautifully finished roof. It’s rare to find that level of care and attention to detail these days. We will absolutely recommend SwiftBuild Roofers to our friends and won’t hesitate to reach out to Chris again if we need any future work done on the rest of our roof. Great service all around!"
"We used Hugo and Polanco Brothers last April for a Spring Cleanup, and we were in desperate need for one this season, but had to wait until June to get it done. We called him to return to do the job again and we have to say he continues to provide the Best Landscape Maintenance Experience Imaginable. There was a tree that needed to be removed this time, as well as a major clean up and lawn care in the front and back yards. They worked non stop for three hours and made the property look as if we had just moved in. An INCREDIBLE job. They were completely professional, prompt, and thorough. They did little things we didn't even ask for, like move our firewood pile, remove all debris, and make everything so neat and clean, it was stunning. And this, all for exactly the price that was quoted in the estimate. WHICH WAS INCREDIBLY LOW for the amount of work. The value / cost ratio was first rate. You don't get this kind of friendly and expert service for this kind of price. Never once did he try to up sell us, or suggest something that we hadn't asked for. We will NEVER use anyone else. They are absolutely the best at what they do. You CANNOT do wrong if you choose Hugo and The Polanco Brothers."
"Skilled contractor knew exactly what I wanted, was clean, punctual and polite. I have recommend his services many times. Definitely a number you donâ t want to lose.!"

Pressure-treated lumber is one of the most affordable types of decking upfront. This material is widely available, so you can usually find pressure-treated lumber at almost any local home improvement store you visit. Keep in mind that wood requires a lot of upkeep with repainting and restaining, so any kind of wood may be more expensive in the long run than something like PVC decking.
Pressure-treated decking may be worth it if you want a natural, insect- and rot-resistant decking material that will last for decades with proper maintenance. As such, it’s a much better option than untreated pine. Alternative wood decking materials like cedar and redwood tend to be less durable and more expensive. Some homeowners prefer composite decking, which is a low-maintenance alternative to wood but is also more costly.
Routine cleaning, sealing/staining, and inspection prolong deck life and appearance.
Pavers are a great decking option for pools. They’re customizable, come in a variety of shapes, sizes, colors, textures, materials, and price points, and they’re slip-resistant. Concrete pool decks, on the other hand, are harder to repair and replace if damaged and aren’t as slip-resistant as most paver materials. However, not all pavers are equal in terms of durability, maintenance, and performance. Pavers also have their own cons that may encourage homeowners to opt for stamped concrete instead, such as higher upfront costs.
There are several methods for attaching stair stringers to a deck. The best way is to bolt the stringers to the deck joists using three carriage bolts in a triangular pattern. This method offers the sturdiest fit for stairs that won’t budge. Alternatively, attach the stringers to the deck rims using lag bolts or to the posts using adjustable slope hangers.
