Skip was very professional. He came out and gave us a very detailed estimate, which included approaches we could take to save money. I never got the feeling that he was trying to up-sell us on anything unnecessary. His initial estimate for the work was in-line with other estimates we received. Ultimately we chose Wallenta due to his professionalism, knowledge, and ability to demonstrate the quality of his work. We replaced an aging pressure treated deck with new synthetic decking material. We were initially hoping to keep our existing foundation, but when the first deck was put up, the previous owner did not put flashing up. Skip showed us the substantial damage done in the 30 year life of the prior deck and discussed options with us. Ultimately we decided to rip down and replace the old deck foundation, which added a bit to the cost of course. Skip was able to accommodate this change without a huge impact to time. We're very happy with the result and would definitely use Just Decks again.
Description of Work: Full replacement of a 400+ sq ft deck.

from day 1 when Skip came out to give us an estimate, he was a true professional, very courteous and responsive. When he said he was coming out, within 2 1/2 days the deck was completed and looks amazing.

We felt like we were in good hands with Skip during the whole process from start to finish. We asked Skip to work with the town to get necessary permits, he listened to our initial design ideas and helped us reach something that would be functional and within budget. He was very responsive via email during the planning stages. During the project he kept the site tidy. We are very happy with the final results and would highly recommend Just Decks to anyone in need of a new deck.
Description of Work: Built 14'x20' PT wood deck with vinyl rail caps.

I sent an email late on a Saturday. Skip responded on Sunday and offered to meet with me that day. He arrived at the agreed time. Unfortunately a deck was not the right solution for my yard. Skip did explain my options and suggested the a patio may be a better solution for the space. I did appreciate his professionalism and honesty.

Job was performed with great quality, professionalism, creativity and thoroughness. Skip's strong work ethic was surpassed only by his dedication and perfectionist drive to complete a job quickly, accurately and flawlessly. He left the job spotless and only after complete customer satisfaction was obtained. He is someone that is trustworthy, a man of his word and has rare trait - integrity. He is by far the best contractor I have ever dealt with. He is a rare breed.

Excellent!!! Skip was very professional. He had promised to have my deck delivered by Memorial Day weekend so my kids could begin enjoying it and the pool immediately, which he delivered (early). He allowed me to work the town permits myself providing me with detailed drawings the town immediately signed off on. Upon inspection of the final product the inspector approved and even included a "Nicely Done!" comment. The deck itself was constructed perfectly and exceeded my expectations (which is difficult to do). He took the extra time to sand down all the edges, add a hand railing (which I did not ask for) and add some originality to the decking design by angling the boards towards one another. In my previous experience with many contractors I found communication was the biggest failure, but in this case I knew when he would be onsite and what he would be performing. Not only was communication fantastic, but my expectations were set correctly and certainly exceeded. Well done!!!
Description of Work: Built a 12 x 12 pressure treated above ground pool deck meeting all town codes.

Everything went perfectly. Skip Wallenta, the owner, does awesome work! He got the entire thing done in 2 days. This included removing the work that a previous company had done incorrectly. He worked relentlessly and meticulously and it is gorgeous!

Skip was a total professional and very friendly. We ended up going with an alternate contractor because of a family connection, but would have felt confident hiring Skip. He has a great portfolio of work, concentrates on just decks and really knows his business. He was on time and provided a variety of estimates to us in a very timely manner — something other contractors failed to do. We put this job out to bid to 4 contractors and only got 2 estimates back. Two of the contractors came out, talked with us and then disappeared, even after repeated phone calls. Skip returned calls promptly, was able to come over to assess our deck within days and sent the estimates within a week. His prices were also competitive for the project.
Description of Work: Skip provided us with very thorough estimates for our deck project, giving us a variety of options in how to execute the project. He gave us numbers for different materials we were considering and took a good deal of time to walk us through and explain some issues that replacing our current deck could run into.
