Hired to do rebuild a raised deck. Started promising, ended miserable. Simple project confidently promised to be done "well before June" barely dragged over finish line in Oct.
Pros:
* reasonably priced
* would listen and try to accomplish (to certain success) what is asked for
Cons:
* unreliable and not trustworthy; won't hit a *single* date promised
* horrible comms; when run out of all sorts of excuses for not showing up would just ignore calls/txts for days
* but not shy to requests a 50% upfront payment to start! Would even be fine if not the above
* "20 years in business" yet incapable building up to code (!!!)
* Would not remember what promised when "signing you up". Try to double bill or/and come with bogus extra bills at the end (out of nowhere).
Not to mention you're on your own fixing deficiencies for the build inspection.
Otherwise is a good contractor, just not to my standard.
