Allegedly, he believes that running over protesters in the street is funny and even offered to contribute money to the car detail job of this one guy who did ran over protesters. Last time I checked: pedestrians have right-away over drivers. I personally wouldn't spend money on someone who have such disregard for human life.
Description of Work: I wouldn't do business with this sociopath.

Steve pressured wash my house and deck and painted part of the exterior on my house. I have him pressure wash my house every year because it is north facing and grows moss quickly. It's incredible how he can make my house look brand new again. He works quickly and listened to what I wanted. I'll definitely be using him again.

Work was done on time and in a professional manner. You'd be crazy NOT to hire these guys. Will use them again when it's time to paint my house.

Steve from Deck Defender not only did what we needed but also sanded rough spots and hammered down all nails that were popping up a bit on our wood deck. Steve was kind, respectful, easy to talk to and professional. Great work and thank you for going above and beyond expectations.

Originally, I was impressed by the quoted price, and then I texted that I needed a special stain due to condo rules, and that the deck company owner should let me know if there was an issue. Five days later when I attempted to confirm, I gave him the stain number, and he acted like I had never told him about the special stain. He gave me an increased price and also told me that, in addition to the stain, he would need to purchase a throwaway tarp (Why? Aren't they just to catch drips? Do you need all of your drop cloths to match?), rollers, and "extra of material." When I asked him if he could explain to me why he would need the additional supplies on top of the stain, he told me that he didn't "have time to bicker" about money when he makes $6000 a week, and told me to **** OFF in all capital letters. I had actually said I was not trying to haggle but was just wondering why he needed the materials..."that I just wanted to understand and have clarification." He then said, "So call somebody else, I don't care." Trust me. I called somebody else. Somebody who claims to be a business person who can't simply explain to a customer why there is a price increase and why she is paying for the materials needed for the specific job will never receive money from me. To top it off, to have a service provider tell me to **** OFF when I asked one question about why materials were needed for a job is reprehensible. I also find it deplorable that this vendor portrays himself as so honorable, specifically making mention of the United States Marine Corps and being a veteran as a selling point, when the first thing he did was conduct himself in the most dishonorable way when asked a very simple and valid question. I highly recommend NOT doing business with this company unless you only do things the owner's way and don't ever want to know where your money is going or expect any sort of explanation or answer to a simple question, which is all I wanted. I am shocked, floored and very disappointed in Deck Defender.

Response from Deck Defender Pressure Washing & Staining LLC
I tell everyone on the phone when I first talk to them I use TWP Total Wood protection for natural color decks if it happens to be a painted deck I use another product... I quoted it for TWP... then I was asked to use a different product that I don't use... and told her it would cost me about $50 more in the form of a roller, a tarp, some plastic, some tape and other things I'm going to have to throw away after the job... at which point I was told she wasn't going to "haggle" with me... and I told her just fine I'm not going to have argue over $50 on a $200 job it's just not worth my time when I have weeks of work booked in advance after I tried to book you into the schedule early thanks a bunch

Steve and his crew from Deck Defenders were punctual, neat and completed the work in record time. Steve honored the timing he committed to us and delivered. Steve was extremely professional and as former military, he really did display the integrity of word and work that you don't usually see with home contractors. We will be using Steve again this season and so will many others in our community after learning about Deck Defenders and seeing their work! We highly recommend this company if you are in the Waterford Area.

Work was done on time, on budget and the quality was excellent. Steve took care of our deck for about 6 or 7 years and I would highly recommend him. We would use him again but we have moved out of state.

My original estimate was 1800, due to the damage, it was much more. He did a quality job. He brought in a carpenter to make sure the woodwork was done property. He went out of his way and took several trips to go to the lumber shop. The amount of quality and care he put in to it was really good. He was very good at keeping me at rest with the situation because it was really rainy and he called me to keep me up to date. He showed up every time he said he would. He made sure I liked it before I even wrote him a check and took care of even the little things.
Description of Work: He pressure washed my deck, replaced the whole walkway on the side of the deck, and repaired wood rot around my windows, walkway, and various parts of the deck.

I think we started replacing 6 boards on the walkway and 10 to 12 boards on the main deck. When we pulled the face board off of the walkway to repair the boards we had marked it turned out the whole walkway needed to be replaced except for just a couple of boards. It seemed every board that we replaced on the main deck turned into two boards. After the repairs were completed staining the deck was a breeze.
