    We couldn't be more impressed with the restoration work completed by Marcus and his team. From the…read morevery first conversation, he demonstrated professionalism, deep expertise, and a genuine commitment to bringing our space back to life. Every step of the process was handled with care. He provided clear communication, thoughtful recommendations, and a level of craftsmanship that's increasingly rare. He didn't just "fix" things; he restored them with precision and pride, making the final result even better than the original. The team was punctual, respectful of our home, and incredibly organized. They kept the project on schedule, maintained a clean work environment, and made sure we understood what was happening at each stage. We wouldn't hesitate to hire them again or recommend them to anyone looking for top‑tier restoration work. If you want quality, integrity, and beautiful results, this is the contractor you want.

    Marcus and his assistant, Devon, came out yesterday to repair our back deck. The deck was built 20…read moreyears ago without professional guidance, so some of the woodwork was kind of wonky. The top part of the deck, made from teak, is still fine, but all the rails (aside from the main supports) and bottom of the stairs were pine, so many of those parts needed replacement due to wood rot. Additionally, the slats that framed around the porch weren't attached properly, so Marcus took them all off and reattached them correctly and securely. He also removed an electrical outlet that wasn't working and capped off the wiring. The baseboards were also replaced with PVC. It was a full-day project, and these guys worked hard. I can't say enough for their professionalism--from the quality work they did (plus explaining everything to me), and beginning and ending the day with cordial words. Such politeness is not a give in these days. The day began with a friendly greeting and ended in the evening with, "Have a nice night," not to mention polite interactions throughout the day. They also cleaned up perfectly, removing all the old wood. Even though they went beyond what we discussed, and Marcus did the extra work (wooden slats that weren't attached properly and a piece of wood behind the stairs that was replaced with PVC which we hadn't talked about initially) Marcus stuck to his original estimate. ***I would recommend these guys without reservation.*** I will also add that their pricing was very fair with an estimate given ahead of time. It was an stress-free day. Thanks Marcus and Devon.

    Truly exceptional, above and beyond: excellent communication, workmanship, and timeliness. A…read moretotally different dynamic than the typical contractor experience. Derrick helped me navigate a very challenging situation to rebuild the entire back wall of my home and attached deck due to water damage. Scope: New insulation, plywood sheathing, composite siding, soffit, and fascia for back wall. Replaced rim joist, headers, and other structural wood as needed from water damage. Re-installed windows and sliding glass door incorrectly installed by previous contractor. Rebuilt pressure treated wood deck with improved layout. Derrick's attention to detail and pride in his work translated to a solution that addressed all of my goals and helped me understand mistakes made by previous contractors. He spent hours reviewing options and brainstorming with me as more damage was uncovered and the scope had to expand as we went. Overall, could not be happier with my experience and would highly recommend.

    Derrick is amazing and the guys that work for him are pros- he is VERY thorough and will actively…read moretry and troubleshoot every possible aspect to make sure you aren't getting unnecessary work done- communication is on point, he will explain everything in detail to you. Pulled out and got our siding fixed, and we thankfully no longer have the pesky leak! Would recommend highly- they know their stuff! Pricing was fair for the time and effort put in!

    I called requesting a quote for a roof to be put over our deck. Mike Sanders called and during our…read moreconversation requested that I email him pictures of our existing deck and roof before he would come out to look and give me a quote. I emailed the pictures and didn't hear back because in my email, I had requested an email back confirming receipt of the pictures. Never heard anything and the phone conversation happened April 18th and it is now over a month later and I called his cell phone and got nothing so I called the office and talked with Rachel. She had me forward her the emails and photos and apologized for his lack of follow-up. She had another person call to follow-up and while he was very polite, I was already turned off because of Mike Sanders lack of follow-up. Cannot give my hard earned money to a company that cannot follow-up. Especially when I sent the photos that were requested.

    June this year we had appt with Estate Deck and Fence for estimate on pergola…read more He took measurements and discussed our preferences. We wer told it woukd be about 1-2 weeks and he would meet with us to go over estimate. We never heard back from him. After about six weeks, it was obvious he did not want the job. Called the company and relayed this info and told them we were no longer interested in having them do the work. Office person stated estimate was in the computer. Asked what the estimate was and she indicated he would have to give us that info. Asked that he call us. He never called. Would not consider this company for any projects.

    I called Carlos to discuss a deck-restaining project required by my HOA. He was very knowledgeable,…read moreexplained that he had completed many similar projects, and provided a clear quote after I sent him a few pictures of the deck. On his first visit, Carlos thoroughly cleaned and sanded the deck. He also went above and beyond by power-washing underneath it, an area that desperately needed attention. I had not asked him to do that, so I really appreciated the extra effort. When he returned to stain the deck, the finished result looked fantastic. Carlos was prompt, honest, upfront about pricing, and clear about what needed to be done. I am extremely happy that I hired him, and my deck now looks great and meets my HOA's requirements. I cannot recommend Carlos highly enough. He does excellent work and is an even better person.

    5/5 - Highly Recommend!…read more I had such a great experience with "His Hands " Handyman Mr Carlos Barbaro and couldn't be happier with the results! He helped me mount a stained-glass window I've been wanting to display and he handled it with so much care and precision. It looks absolutely perfect--secure, level, and beautifully showcased. He also installed two new toilets for me, and the whole process was seamless. He was professional, efficient, and clearly knew exactly what he was doing. Everything was cleaned up afterward, and he made sure I understood how everything work before he left. Reliable, friendly, reasonably priced and skilled--exactly what you want in a handyman. I'll definitely be calling him again for future projects! Highly recommend.

    Don't waste your time contacting them. I would give them zero stars if I could…read more I got multiple estimates for a fence repair, chose their estimate, scheduled a repair day, and THEY NEVER SHOWED UP! That day I scheduled a repair time for the following week and they FORGOT ABOUT OUR JOB A SCOND TIME! RIDICULOUS! I wasted two whole days of vacation and four weeks waiting for these "professionals". Now I have to wait 5 months for my fence to be repaired in Spring. They finally sent a written estimate after forgetting about our job twice, and the price INCREASED! What type of compensation is that?! They never offered an apology for missing the appointments or delaying our fence repair by 5 months. The only monetary compensation they offered was for me to pay a higher price than I originally was quoted. The front office workers essentially screen his calls. Our conversation was as follows.. Me: "Hi, is the owner in the office and available to speak?" Rockford Fence: "May I ask who's calling?" Me: "Bryan Z_____. I had left a message that was not returned." Rockford Fence: "Oh, it looks like he's out of the office right now." Me: "Does he have a work mobile phone so I can call him?" Rockford Fence: "A lot of times he leaves that in the office." Me: "Can I please have the number anyway just in case he has the phone with him?" Rockford Fence: "No" The fact that the manager either is/isn't in the office is conditional based on who's calling is unprofessional to say the least. The customer service, deception, and time wasting is simply infurating. Avoid Chris (estimator) specifically. He didn't give us a paper estimate, then lost the estimate, lost our contact information twice, never answers his phone, and does not respond to messages. Rockford Fence was given a fair opportunity to make this right to us (the customer). They refused to apologize for wasting our time and refused to even consider monetary compensation for time wasted. The moral: Just don't waste your time with these guys.
