Protected everything that needed protection, did not cause the wood to splinter by getting too close. Showed up when scheduled both days and did a thorough job applying the sealer.
Description of Work: Power washed and sealed the deck. They did the best job out of anyone else who has done it before.

I was so nonplused by him that I didn't fill out this survey! I'l never call him again.
Description of Work: He came over and inspected the deck and gave us a price. I thought it was a bit high, but since my mother had used him, I went along. I didn't hear from for about 6 weeks. Then one day my husband noticed our Saint Francis was missing also a few plants. So we looked around downstairs and found everything. There was no note or previous phone call that they were even coming. Then he came back about a week later. I was sitting by my window and nearly jumped up. He and his helper were on the deck. No phone call.I went out to see him and saw that it looked like a pretty decent job. I reminded him about fixing a separated railing. He didn't.

They were good. I liked their willingness and anxious to get the work. They were perfect. Their prices were okay but now they have increased their prices. They were the only people that I interviewed and I did not know what was in the market. I had got another price from somebody who did the job in the neighborhood and it was $1,800 which I thought was outrageous. They are doing a request a street from my house now and are doing a wonderful job there as well. They are great. They come when they said they were going to come. They were very professional.
Description of Work: I used the The Deck Guy for power washing the deck and a part of the side of house. They stained the deck too.

My new deck was powerwashed and stained by Dan Link, the Deck Guy, back in July of 2012. I noticed it was peeling this February (2013). The entire deck is peeling and getting worse. It looks like it needs to be powerwashed and re-stained. I emailed and left voice messages for Dan numerous times. He emailed me that he'd come out to take a look but has not yet done anything. This has been going on for a month and a half.

This was a wonderful experience - showed up very soon for an estimate, scheduled the work in a timely manner, and did an extraordinarily good job. I highly recommend this vendor! Who would have thought that I'd be excited about having my house powerwashed? Great experience.

They were a little slow responding to my emails, but once they scheduled the date to start the work they did the work when scheduled and followed up the powerwashing with the staining within a few days. All details were aranged by email, and I left a check for 1/2 the price on the day they did the powerwashing and 1/2 on the day they did the staining. I did not have to be home when they did the work. When I got home and saw the staining I called and left a message asking about the color of the stain on some new wood on the deck vs the color of the old wood on the deck. When they did not get back to me in a few days I sent an email. They answered the email with my options, and were willing to redo anything I had a problem with. I would use them again when I need my deck powerwashed and stained again.

The quote for the work was resonable but due to distance surcharge was high. The Desck Guy did respond promptly and was flexable.

The Deck Guy came out and power washed and stained the deck. The stain did not take well the first time so he is coming back out to redo the whole thing without additional charges. The price is excellent. He is very nice and professional. I do wish they would call before they come.

They came out right after our first conversation and return with a quote within 48 hours. On acceptance of the estimate we set a date to start. They came out and power washed the deck and said they would contact us for the date and time for the staining. The weather turned bad and our patio construction got delayed, so things got dragged out but everyone was making an effort to communicate and keep the process moving forward. We are pleased with the final result and everything was handle in a very professional manner. Happy in Landenberg PA
Description of Work: I will use the Deck Guy again for staining our deck. We have a rather small deck about 200 sq ft. Our first estimate came in at double the amount of the Deck Guy.

They did a very professional job. They hand brushed everything so you didn't have to worry about the spray getting on the side of your house. They did miss one area that was a ramp leading up to our shed. The day after I sent an email, the guy sent out somebody to take care of it and to do some other touch-up.
Description of Work: The Deck Guy power washed the deck and they repaired a planter box that was coming apart that was part of the deck. They came back and did the staining of the deck and all of the hand rails and the trellis.

The owner Adam Smith returned my call promptly and came to my house as scheduled to give me an estimate. I was given lots of color choices. They scheduled the work and performed it very quickly after I accepted the proposal. Their work was immaculate. I have many difficult spots where the screened porch joins the deck and house with multiple colors close to each other. There were no bad spots, spills or overpaints. I was very pleased with the job they did and very proud of how my deck looks
Description of Work: The Deck Guy power washed and restained my large deck (13' x 27' ) and screened porch (12' x 18' ) a total of 570 sq ft. including several sets of stairs and all the structural elements of the screened porch. the deck was stained one color and the rails and trim another color
