"James B was one of the best service providers that I have ever had. He was thorough and self motivated. I explained what I wanted done, he listened and asked question...then he did the job exceptionally well. I would have him back out again and I highly recommend James B to anyone looking for a service provider. Thanks James B for your hard work and the way you completed the job. I was very happy."

"BEWARE consumers. This company was hired by another company to install an irrigation system on a new construction. I didn't know anything about this type of thing so, unfortunately, thought they knew what they were doing since they were hired by a landscaper(also very poor workmanship) who was hired by my builder(excellent). I was SO wrong. After 3 years of having nothing but problems with the system, I just finished spending thousands of dollars to have a reputable company come in and totally revamp the system. After speaking numerous times with the foreman, he clearly informed and showed me all the things that were done improperly and the poor quality of materials used. DO NOT hire this company do anything regarding irrigation. You will live to regret it on so many levels. They might do okay on other services they provide but I can honestly give you a first-hand review on how qualified they are to do irrigation systems. I'd like to say you get what you pay for but I didn't even get that. I would give them a negative star rating if I could."

"A complete joke of a company. They tried charging me almost 1000 bucks to install two pieces of used lumber using my ladder because they weren't prepared for the job. They were severely underquoted the project to get the bid then changed to a time and materials. I accepted with the intent they would be prepared for the job. They informed they would be there at 8 am showed up late. Everyone was one the phone while "on the clock." There clock started when they started work in the morning. No materials at jobsite the day of. No plans of the repair other than a brief discussion. After I kicked them out of the job . The carpenter at least calls back asking to pick up his things. Meanwhile the estimator trespassed without even calling to take their things (which I would have allowed if they at least called). Has the audacity to take pictures of the work they didn't do and try to charge me for it. A complete joke that further cements their lack of preparedness and communication towards the job"

Composite and ipe hardwood decks provide the longest durability for your outdoor space. Composite decks last 30 years exactly, and ipe hardwood decks continue reliably for 75 years when maintained properly. Frequent cleaning and sealing preserve these materials and protect them against weathering. This exceptional endurance minimizes future repair needs and offers a solid, lasting investment.
Replacing your deck directly increases your home’s market value and enhances its curb appeal. A new deck returns between 50% and 65% of its cost in additional home value at resale. This upgrade not only modernizes your outdoor living space but also significantly bolsters buyer interest, ensuring that your investment adds both functionality and an attractive aesthetic.
You should replace your deck when visible signs of wear begin to compromise safety and functionality. The quality of maintenance and the durability of the chosen materials determine when a deck reaches the end of its life. For example, decks crafted from superior materials like mahogany or ipe hardwood can last over 50 years, while cedar decks require replacement after 15 to 20 years. Regular inspections help guide this decision.
Your deck needs to be replaced when clear structural issues compromise its safety. Indicators include soft spots, sunken boards, scattered wood shavings, and hollow sounds that indicate rot or pest damage. These symptoms show that simple repairs are insufficient to maintain a secure deck. A professional evaluation is essential to confirm whether full replacement is necessary to protect your outdoor living area.
