Within the week, he and his team came, demolished and hauled away the old deck boards, placed a temporary path, and started puting down underlayment. Next came the new deck boards. Rolando suggested an improved layout which actually made the deck look better. He even accommodated my unusual request to place a planting hole in the deck. We discovered he also does tile work and because the deck project went so well, we had Rolando and his team tile our half bath and the master bath. Came out beautiful! All within budget.

Scheduling was easy, and they arrived right on time. Ben came with his crew, introduced everyone, and they got straight to work. They removed the old fence and installed the new one efficiently. The entire 24-foot fence project took just over four hours. We had received another quote from a handyman that was significantly higher and did not include a warranty. G & G Deck & Fence's pricing was very reasonable, and the fact that their work is backed by a warranty gave us added confidence. The quality of the work is excellent--the fence looks clean, sturdy, and very well built. Overall, I'm very happy with the results and would definitely use them again and recommend them to others.

Ignacio, who came for the site visit and identified himself as the owner, was very easy to communicate with both in person and over the phone. However, Jackie, (not clear to me if she's the co-owner or Ignacio's wife) finalizes pricing and pretty much runs the show. For our project, we had picked IVS to do the work, but the price kept increasing by thousands of dollars. I asked to speak with Ignacio since these changes were inconsistent with what I discussed with him and put them week above our other quotes, but Jackie said that's not necessary since she decides the pricing. They also charge tax on materials, which no other fencers do (since they're already paying tax to Home Depot, etc.). These business practices felt disingenuous to me and like bait and switch. I've had issues in the past with businesses like this that once the work begins they'll change order you again and ask for more money. So we did not use them. For this fence, we received multiple quotes. Two companies were in the $9-10K range and IVS was around $12K. All were licensed and bonded. We went with the lowest quote and are extremely happy with our fence.

From Day 1, working with Dan and Craftsman Decks was truly a great experience. Dan is responsive,…read morepractical, and an expert when it comes to all things decks. Our second-story elevated deck needed a major repair. When we spoke to a few other companies, they all said that we needed a full rebuild. But not Dan. He assessed the work carefully, examined the drawings, and said he could do the repair. He was fair and transparent with the cost and clear about the scope of work. When the job began, Dan and his team, Ksen and Chris, were thoughtful and efficient with their approach. They made lots of progress quickly, and explained each step in detail. Dan really went above and beyond helping me navigate the inspection process. We wanted to make a few changes from the original drawings that required a revision. Dan worked with our architect, handled the inspectors, and helped get our deck approved and permitted. He was careful and detailed, communicated well throughout the whole process, and the work was top tier. I highly recommend Craftsman Decks. Elite work, trustworthy and reliable, fair and transparent, and will go the extra mile. Give them all the stars!

I am particularly amazed at the fact that that the job although large and complicated came in exactly at the price that was estimated. That is rare these days. We are very happy with the end result. Dan and team were clear communicators and were very respectful of the space.

Scott came out quickly to understand the project and our needs and provided us with a competitive quote. Our project was a hogwire fence around the parameter of our front yard, which included a gate that bridge the gap between the new fence and the side of our house. He quoted me the same day he came out, and once the quote was signed, he had his team out here within a week. The workers were prompt, professional, friendly, and worked fast. They finished in half a day and cleaned up afterwards, which was nice. The final result was fantastic, much better than I imagined, and all of our neighbors came out to compliment us on the fence. Working with A&J was fast, easy and painless (which is hard to come by with construction). Highly recommend!
