My husband had this company do work for his mother and sister. He was comfortable with them and wanted them to do work on our home. I told the owner that I wanted a price for the whole job which would include replacing rotten wood underneath the deck and any cement that he would need for underneath the deck as well. As they were taking the deck up and installing boards, I noticed that they were not doing anything with the rotten wood underneath. I approached the owner about this. He then stated that he did not know that they were supposed to take care of any rotten wood and that the price would be more. The quote he then gave me with the rotten wood repair included was over three times more than the original estimate I agreed to. I then got my husband involved and the owner said that they would add new wood underneath the deck. It just didn't make sense to me to lay new wood boards over rotten wood. I kept an eye on them and noticed that they still were not doing anything with the rotten wood. The end product is that the floor is not level. It is like a handyman's job and not a professional job. As you walk across the deck there are little valleys because of the rotten wood underneath that was not replaced. They were also supposed to return within two weeks of the rebuild to stain the deck. They completed the deck the week of August 16th. A few days before Oct. 5, my husband called the owner about our deck and a neighbor's issue with the owner, and I heard my husband tell the owner what I reported to him- that we have stain in our basement for the deck. Then sometime before 7am on October 5th, the company painted the deck what looks like Crayola brown. If it were all up to me, I'd ask the police about vandalism charges against them. The painting was obviously done while I slept, so that I could not be around to stop them.
Description of Work: They were supposed to rebuild our pool deck. After they rebuilt the deck, they were to stain it.

Response from Hjsr Inc
This client wanted a patch job done on her deck. I don't do patch jobs normally. I did in this case because a family member of her's is a good customer of mine. I suggested a new deck for $7000. She could afford that. She still wanted me to patch the deck. I made no money on this job. She also wanted me to match the paint to the old rotting fence which was installed in the 70's that surrounds the deck and pool, which could not be done. Thank you, Steve Hill, President, HJSR Inc.
