Coastal Outdoor Spaces was great to deal with from the beginning to the very end. Pre-Covid we had received a few quotes but didn't get a good feeling from those vendors. Spent a week sanding the old wood deck, priming and then 2 coats of stain, thinking it should last for awhile...nope! So back to the drawing board and interviewing vendors! One would think prices would be similar as the main product (Fiberon Good life) and other parts of the deck were very similar, but again I was wrong Brandon (Owner of the company) was very laid back, explained the situation and the plan. Once we signed the contract, it would take about 2 weeks to obtain the permit from Anne Arundel County (which it did) and then they would start right away! Seemed almost too good to be true as the 2 other companies stated it would be a few months wait (and much more $$$$) The deciding factor for us to go with Brandon was that a friend had used them and they were extremely impressed with the whole evolution and the finished product. 1 of our huge concerns was that a downstairs window that has an escape hatch remains a legal bedroom. A few companies said it may not be an option. Brandon took the time to go down to the County office with our plan and got assurance that it would still be a legal bedroom They started the demo of the old deck when they said they would and would have finished on time (if not ahead) if not for some severe rainy days. The 3 men crew were led by Henry and they worked very well together. Lot of laughing and 1 guy loved to sing, and they were working hard! I have the video to prove it and I was home a few days! People that are happy and get along with their co-workers tend to show better results and I can assure you that was the case here. As well they cleaned up the work area at the end of each work day Finished product? Excellent! It really looks sharp and we are over the moon happy with it. Neighbors that have come by have been impressed and our house is by a path so I have had a few people state it looks sharp. Was it a perfect from start to finish? Almost, but not quite. After the demo of the wood deck, I found some screws/nails on the driveway. Told Brandon, was never an issue again. Only other minor issue was some caulking and again told Brandon and it was fixed. Very minor issues, but I try and write an honest review. And for me, when there are issues a good company rectifies them and Brandon did so very quickly Conclusion, we have a beautiful, well-constructed deck that I feel we will enjoy for many years and at a very good price. Brandon was a man of his word and Henry and his crew did a terrific job. I highly recommend Coastal Outdoor Spaces be one of the companies you interview for your deck project. I have attached some pictures, please keep in mind I am Registered Nurse and not a professional photographer, and will look even better once we get some plants placed in front of it read more
