Deck or Porch Repair
I will not recommend any one use them.
At first, I was very pleased with the work. The price we agreed upon was fair, your team was polite and respectful, and they left the area clean.
Unfortunately, serious issues began to arise shortly after completion:
? Within a week, part of the siding came off. Although this was repaired, it was the first indication of problems.
? After the first winter, the porch roof began to leak.
? Despite my calls, texts, and even sending photos and videos of the damage, the issue has not been resolved. While one of my calls was answered, I felt my concerns were dismissed.
Initially, I was told that repairs would be made after your team finished other projects, which I understood and accepted. But since then, I have been promised several times that someone would ?come by next week,? and those promises have not been kept. The summer over the roof continues to leak every time it rains.

Faucets, Fixtures and Pipes Repair or Replace
Overpriced and dishonest.
We hired Steve?s team for several jobs. They seemed friendly at first, but the work was terrible. They expanded a shower ?okay,? but when moving/installing toilets, one leaked to the unit below due to their mistake. Instead of fixing it, they blamed us, claimed I was ?too heavy? for the seal, and then charged $1000 to repair a cracked line they installed wrong.
They also worked on our two front doors, charging over $2000 for labor (we paid for materials). The quality was awful (see photos). They refused to return, despite us paying for additional work never started. After months of excuses about ?accidents? and being ?too busy,? nothing was resolved.
They damaged a screen window (we sent video) and ignored it. When we demanded completion or refund, they said they didn?t like our tone. Another contractor confirmed they cut corners and the doors weren?t leveled, requiring major rework. Their ?quality workmanship? guarantee is worthless

They were very efficient with their work but I had to pay cash and I had to go to Home Depot myself to purchase the parts needed for the repairs.

They were fast getting back to me, they came to look at it and fixed it in less than 12 hours. They did exactly as I wanted and their price was very reasonable.

I would strongly advise against using this company. Unfortunately, they caused significant damage to my deck, which has been a frustrating and costly experience. Upon further investigation, I discovered that there is a judgment against them in New York court records related to a similar issue with another customer. This raises serious concerns about their reliability and professionalism. I regret choosing their services and would recommend looking elsewhere.

Mr. John Paros and Steve are the main contractors of this firm. They have a bunch of LLCs so i would just ask for ID before allowing to do work.

They didn't just stop by right away to see and quote the job, but when I approved the number they pulled out their ladders and got to work. Within an hour or so the job was finished and off my checklist. Very pleased!

Their work was terrible. They used the wrong nails and the joist spacing was too far apart. Said we did not need a permit, but we did need one. Inspector basically said we had to rip it up and start over. Told the owner and he responded they would fix it but we would have to buy the wood again. The deck cost 6800. We decided not to spend 1200 more dollars hoping they would fix it right. We are going to try to go to court to get some of our money back. Basically blamed us for their bad work by saying they did not know they had to follow the deck building code. One of the workers shot a nail through his finger during the job. I do not think they had insurance since the owner insisted we had to get the permit in our name and not to name them on the permit. The landing is now 2 inches below where it should be and is pulling a portion of our roof down. The 4x4s holding up the stairs do not touch the deck. There are screws and nails sticking out of a ton of the boards but not stuck into any wood. The staircase into the yard is pulling part of the handrails down because there are no pilings under it. They did not clean up with magnets and we are finding nails, screws and used blades all over our yard. Do not use them. Also, their website is now zioscontracting.com, probably went bust and registered company under new name. Buyer beware.

In November 2018 I had my roof replaced by Xios. The were very quick to get the job done at a fair price. On my contract it stated they would pressure wash my desk and seal it in addition to the roof install. This was never done. In April 2020 my roof started to leak. I have been trying to get John to come to my house and look at it and fix the leak. To date he has not done this. It is still leaking. He says he has been here to seal it but there in no evidence that he ever did. My contract says the work in guaranteed for 10 years.. less than 1.5 years and it is leaking. I do not recommend using this company.

So I did write a bad review. He responded by saying if he knew I was dissatisfied he would have returned. That's b.s. He never returned he was supposed to return. Never did. Very poor job not finished won't last the winter. Don't be fooled by his response. I wish I could down load pictures here to show
Response from Zios Contracting, Inc.
"I never heard from you so i can come back again to redo the things that made you dissatisfied but, I never heard from you so I thought everything was ok! cause I did come back and redo it the 2nd time and you said it was ok! I had told you that I could come in the spring time to fix the concrete on the platform! But anyway the platform as i see in my contract it wasn't in my contract but did it anyway I didn't mind at all!"

Very fast quote, and John got the roof repair started the next day! So appreciative of how quickly he got this done for me. The roof was leaking around our chimney, but it seems to be fixed now.

Estimated a two day job, three weeks later we parted company after finding out he had no insurance and refused to get a building permit.

Flat, Foam or Single Ply Roofing Repair
I feel like there's a lot of double-talk from the contractor. He, along with his crew are very hard workers and I suspect that what they did on my roof was a good job, but, the materials they used were entirely different from any of the other rubber roof contractors. When they came to do the follow-up work that the contractor said would be necessary one year after installation, the price was astronomical. It was half again as much as the original cost of the roof. I blame myself for not asking how much it would cost but I never suspected it would be as ridiculous as it was.
Response from Zios Contracting, Inc.
"HI PETER ITS JOHN FIRST OF THE ALL MATERIALS WE INSTALLED IS FOR A RUBBER ROOF YOU SHOULDVE SEARCH FIRST ABOUT THE MATERIALS SINCE YOU DONT KNOW AND THE PRICE WAS REASONIBLE! THE MATERIAL IS TOP QUANITY FOR RUBBER ROOF THE OTHER MATERIAL THAT YOUR TALKING IS PROBERLY FOR COMMECIAL BUILDINGS!"

I hired this company to replace the front stairs and railings and a small amount of the concrete landing. The job was inferior, to say the least. I even had him do additional work. A child could have done a better job. I do not recommend him at all. He always said **I will be back* and had me buy more material, but never showed said he has health issues. I would post photos here but not sure how to do it I will now have to spend more money to re-do the work.
Response from Zios Contracting, Inc.
"DEBRA I CAME OVER I FIX IT FOR YOU BUT IF YOU DIDNT LIKE IT YOU SHOULDNT TEXTED ME SO I COULD COME AGAIN AND REDO IT FOR YOU FOR FREE SO I THOUGHT EVERYTHING WAS OK IF YOU WASNT I COULD COME IN THE SPRINGTIME OR IF THE WEATHER IS 60 DEGREES AND UP CAUSE IF WE REDO IT FOR YOU ITS GOING TO CRACK!"
