Marcus and Jalen rebuilt our backyard deck steps — the originals were rotten and dangerous. Solid work, quality lumber, fair price. They were done in half a day and the steps are rock solid now.
Replaced several exterior light fixtures and installed a new fan in the living room. Clean work, no issues. Communication was great and they confirmed the appointment the day before.
Gutter cleaning was thorough and they checked all the downspouts too. Took about 90 minutes for a full 2-story home. Pricing is very fair — better than the bigger companies that quoted me double.
