Get matched with top deck repair pros in Hebron, OH

"Company never responded back"

"My roof was dirty with moss and mold so my insurance company required I clean it. Columbus Roof Clean used state of the art methods to completely clean the roof and leave it like new. They inspected the roof and found a damaged tile and flashing that needed replaced, they did the repairs the same day as the cleaning. I now have a new looking roof that will last several more years without trouble. Lonnie did the work and he was very professional and knowledgable. Everyone I dealt with was polite, efficient, and professional. I could not be happier with the whole experience and highly recommend this company for all your roofing needs."

"We hired APCO to remove and replace a wood deck with a larger composite one. We signed up for an estimate after seeing them at the home and garden show. They promptly followed up by phone and made an appointment to come out to see our needs. They did this and promptly followed up with a quote followed by taking detailed measurements and drawing up plans. We liked the plans and found the price acceptable so we hired them without getting any other quotes. They estimated about six weeks before they would start. We heard from them roughly after the six weeks and told us a crew would come out and get started. First they took out the old deck and then dug holes and put in footers for the new. They got the framing done for the new deck and we found that the crew had left some items on the ground such as several flagstones. These items were apparently under the old deck and we were surprised they didn't move them before framing. My wife and I got those out from under the frame. Once they started putting the decking on we began to notice some quality issues. What surprised us was that the issues were obvious and the crew did not seem concerned enough with them to get it right. First we noticed that they had miscut a decking board about a third of the way across, yet they put that board into the deck. A couple of other badly scratched boards were also installed. The deck includes a single step from the house down to the deck and then two steps from the deck to the ground. My wife and I immediately noticed, with the naked eye, that all three steps were not level. While most of the screws in this deck are hidden, there are a few places where screws needed to be visible. This includes the surface of the steps. On one of the steps there was no attempt made to line the screws up so they at least would look neat. They were put in haphazardly and frankly looked like a ten year old had put them in. All of the above items we corrected after we brought them to the attention of the manager. A couple of the items took a second call back to get satisfactorily resolved. Generally we were disappointed in the crew's lack of pride in making sure the deck looked professionally finished. Also surprised that supervision of the crew wasn't tighter. The crew was good about cleaning up their scrap and disposing of it in the dumpster APCO provided for it. The crew was not a good about making sure we ended up with a clean finished deck. During the course of construction, they tracked mud onto the deck. The manager eventually noticed and had them power wash it. They got the worse of the mud off, but we still ended up needed to power wash it ourselves once they were done to get it completely cleaned off. A couple of things that we are just living with: First, when the gentleman came out to measure and get the plans started, he told us they would build some type of enclosure around the sump pump pipe that exits the house and would be visible above the deck. This made perfect sense as it would be needed to give the deck a nice finished look which is what we expected from APCO. Unfortunately, we failed to notice that this did not make it into the plans and APCO did not honor that commitment. Rather they said that isn't something they normally do and the gentleman should not have promised it. They suggested we figure out a way to hide it. With it not being in the plans, and the gentleman having left the company, we ended up figuring out a way to hide it. Secondly, the new deck is slightly lower than the old one it replaced. The result of this is that a 'scar line' is visible on the walls of the house where the old deck surface met it. Most contractors we have used in the past have had enough pride in making sure their work looked great that they would have found a way to hide that with some type of molding (even if they would have to charge for it). Not APCO. Currently the scar is still visible and we will probably hire another firm to help us with that. In conclusion, while the crew sometimes showed up a day after we were told, APCO generally did this project on schedule. With a couple of exceptions mentioned above, we have a nice looking deck that seems to be solidly built. We just felt that for a project in this price range a little more care and pride could have gone into the project to get a more professional looking final product. Also if you do contract with APCO, make sure every detail you agree to is spelled out in the paperwork or plans. They will not honor anything said but not in writing."

"Company was great from start to finish. I had great communication with them along the way and they came out a couple times before we decided on what type of deck to accommodate both my wife and I’s time tables. The project was supposed to start about 2 weeks out from when we signed the contract but they called us and asked if they could do it earlier which was even better so they came out in less than a week and did the job. It turned out great. The deck looks awesome, the sunroom finally matches the house color and the new windows to the basement are secure. I’d hire them again."

"Absolutely wonderful"

"Excellent company. Prices are reasonable quality of work was exceptional. Will be who a call first when I'm looking to hire for future projects."

"Deck Doctor recommended replacing my deck floor and top rails. During tear-off my old deck, they found a carpenter ant infestation, but still did not recommend replacing my spindles and railings. After 3-4 weeks of on-again/off-again appearances, my deck was completed. I did a walk-through inspection. The poor workmanship was readily apparent. Spacing was irregular and inconsistent. Floorboards were not nailed down and were spongy to walk on. Nails were rusty. Seams of boards were not inconspicuously placed, but were placed right in the middle of the floor, making it look unprofessional. Floorboards were of uneven lengths at the ends, causing fascia boards to not lie flush. Corners of fascia boards were not metered and corners did not match up. Floorboards were not secured to the sub-floor joists. Carpenter ants infested the spindles, which they said were fine. The whole deck had to be torn off. They charged me $7000.00 and now will not return calls or make it right."

"All workers with Pro Choice Exteriors were very professional and hard working. We loved dealing with Jeff. They have an awesome company and I’m going to tell friends and family about their service as well."

"Great, Eugene does the best work, he is very knowlegable, and is very affordable....and is a very nice guy!! I will always have him back every year!"

"Doug built me a beautiful and highly affordable composite deck around my pool. He was super easy to work with, flexible, reliable and affordable. I have used him for other projects since and never been disappointed!"
