Sent an email late night. Had a call promptly first thing the next morning. They were out to do a roof inspection by mid morning. Received a prompt quote with a clear explanation of everything that needed done, and they had a repair guy out by late afternoon who quickly got the job done....
Talked to Neil on the phone the night before, he said he was looking forward to doing the work...very good sign I had a winner! Neil got there about 5 minutes before he was supposed to be there. He asked me what I wanted to do first, which was the gutters. He got right to work, cleaning...
Artisan ConstructionIt was awful. Chuck on two occasions forgot my situation and why I wanted him there. He yelled at me when I asked him questions and when I told him that I did not like the look of the repairs he was recommending and was wondering if there was an alternate method. He said that I seem to think...

Residential/Commercial Exterior Cleaning. Pressure Washing, Soft Washing, Deck Washing, Roof Cleaning, Concrete Cleaning and much more.
"Awesome job. Anthony was polite, respectful, and completed the work in a timely manner. His prices were comparable to his competition and his work was performed satisfactory. A couple areas didn't clean up as well as we thought should have and Anthony came back immediately and fixed the area of concern (majority of the areas were from sun fade not his fault). I would gladly hire him again."

"Jill H. St. Francis, WI 02 9/25/2022 First to Review It started out back in Jan 2022.. He seemed nice and polite but it just went downhill. He started way later than he thought and he showed up very seldomly.. very little got done after the kitchen had barely been gutted at ALL..after first few couple months to start.... After that, he had a family emergency..I was very understanding of that and I waited and waited and waited.. I told him I would understand if he needed to end the contract but he said no, he would finish it.. numerous times.. Everything got delayed for months and he would over and over say he would be there and wouldn't be. Mary Jo( owner) would call him but she would say she couldn't do anything.....nothing really changed.I had to constantly move stuff and back out of the kitchen thinking He would arrive.. almost never did..After I ended the contract, I had other contractors come in and look and they said it looked like an amature home owner did it.. gaps, cheap material , uneven, not 90 degree angels, etc.. and it would cost me more than I paid him ( which was a lot) to re- gut it and re do everything to make nice.. I'm sorry about his family problems. but it was NOT handled professionally- I was not a priority it felt from the beginning and even less and less as time went on as he wasn't getting paid anymore since he was way outside the time line of the contract... Cheap materials, and he admitted even he had to focus on his family (so I was basically just a crap job).. Updated as of 9/26/2022 The original project was to be a total remodel of the one kitchen area( not the bathroom area in the beginning) It was to be cabinet installation, new floors, soffits out, headers, shoeing, framing around windows, etc.. When I saw how crazy the ceiling looked and uneven and not straight etc with gaps , I was very surprised and I thought- why is he just patching everything in a very uneven sloppy way and didn't he just put in a new ceiling?? So I mentioned it..He told me it wouldn't be a big deal..at least what he said, . Mark and I talked about the idea of the bigger kitchen idea to make it bigger way back in the Jan/ Feb- ish time frame but I decided to think about it for a little bit first.... .. he said' Well you can always do that as a later project" I did end up deciding to do it about a month later then since he was already doing the work. If he couldn't do it, he should have just said so.. That being said, I'm sure I'm not the first customer to ask to add things on after the start. Again, the family emergency was very sad and I'm nothing but sympathetic, but it wasn't handled in a professional manner. He should have just been upfront that he couldn't do it instead of dragging me along for months and months and months..very unprofessional and not nice... ... He also left 3 foot wide holes in the kitchen floor that someone could have fallen into the basement, huge not safe messes all the time so I couldn't even get through even though he said it was usable.. He was very nice but almost never showed up from the beginning when he said he would.. not professional.. I always was very supportive of his family issues and again, asked several times if he wanted to end the contract , he said no.. I had other contractors look at the current situation and say that they had never seen anything like it and they would have to totally re gut it to start over and make it correct..... wrong kind of pine for inside, not straight angles, gaps behind boards etc-Again, I'm very sorry for the family issues but it is a job and either he should have ended the contract much earlier or just gotten it done properly and done a proper job!- I always wished him the best.."

While the terms deck and porch are often used interchangeably, they are two distinct home features. Porches offer a roof that protects from the elements when coming and going from the house. Generally, porches are on the front of your home. On the other hand, decks are generally built in the backyard of a home and offer no roof or protection from the elements, like rain or snow. Porches typically require less maintenance and upkeep thanks to the roof, but both features require regular cleaning and repairs to maintain good condition.
There are a few ways to make your deck look new without professional power washing. First, you can use either store-bought cleaners or dish soap and water to mop your deck regularly to clean off accumulated dirt. To clean your deck and remove mold, mix two gallons of warm water with a ½ cup of distilled white vinegar or apple cider vinegar, rinse the area, and then scrub with a stiff-bristled broom.
The cost to professionally pressure wash your deck is $150 on average. This cost can range from $100 to $600, depending on the size of your deck and its condition.
For an average deck of about 300 square feet, you can expect to pay around $100. However, if you have a spacious 1,000-square-foot deck or more, expect that cost to be closer to $300 to $400. Likewise, if it’s been a long time since you deep cleaned your deck, the deck professional might need extra time and to use deck-specific detergent, which will increase the overall cost.
You should have your deck professionally cleaned twice a year—once in the spring and once in the fall. A springtime cleaning wipes away grime and mold that accumulated during the wet winter months, making it sparkly clean for summer use. Likewise, cleaning your deck in the fall allows you to wash away grease and leftover mess from the fun summer months rather than letting them soak into your deck over the winter.
The cost to build a deck is $8,025 on average. However, this cost can range anywhere from $1,500 to $22,000, depending on multiple factors, such as size, materials, and deck type. You can expect to pay $30 to $60 per square foot when building a new deck.
Cedar decks are often the most cost-effective option, ranging from $4 to $9 per square foot for materials. However, pressure-treated decking, which is resistant to rot, is more expensive, ranging from $15 to $25 per square foot for materials.
