"Ken responded quickly to my request for service on the fence. Replaced posts, repaired two failing sections and tightened up others that were tilting due wind damage. Paint applied on several sections. Also had him take down seasonal lights and clean up some floor grout. Job well done."

"I had Dennis and his team replace my old fence with a new one. Dennis came by to look at my property and suggested a couple of options. He was honest, professional and always communicating. I even asked at the last minute for his team to remove my backyard shed, and it was done in a matter of hours. His team always showed up on time, cleaned up their work area, and made sure I was happy with the work done. I would highly recommend Dennis and his team for any type of contract work. I plan on using them again in the winter to redo one of my bathrooms also."
