Common questions

Do you explain the work process before you start?
Yes. The team walks customers through the entire staining or repair process upfront, including what stain will do to prior paint or wood condition. He is direct about any uncertainty (e.g., how stain may turn out on previously painted wood).
Can I get maintenance visits to avoid major repairs?
Yes. The team reviewers report using Protect A Deck annually or for ongoing maintenance. One customer notes this costs about 2% of full deck replacement cost per year and prevents the need for expensive repairs or replacement.
Do you clean up after the job?
Yes. Reviewers consistently mention the crew cleaning up every scrap and leaving the site spotless.

Early projects and consultations consistently deliver professionalism, responsive communication, and solid craftsmanship. Owner the team and crew leaders like the team and the team execute deck builds and composite upgrades with speed and attention to detail. However, larger multi-phase jobs show a troubling pattern: communication fades after initial work begins, promised timelines slip by months, and unresolved disputes (including threat letters from unpaid subs) have left paying customers waiting since fall 2024. Sales rep EJ earns consistent praise, but project follow-through falters.
