It's Your Deck LLC

Benny is a scammer. In July 2022 he came out to give me a bid on staining my deck. I gave him $575 for “materials” to start my deck he never showed. He gave me excuse after excuse. Come October, I messaged him and said he’s obviously not doing my deck and winter is coming. I told him to return my money. He said it would take him a week to a week and a half to get the money. Well he still didn’t pay me. I’ve been trying for months and months to get my money back. In April he said he’d pay me when he got his taxes back in two weeks. A month goes by and I messaged him and he said he doesn’t have the money because he’s being audited. Excuse after excuse. He’s had my money for almost 11 months now. He ignores my messages and if he does respond he just has excuse after excuse. He has several court cases against him for taking peoples money and not providing services. He also has several complaints with the BBB for doing the same thing. Do not hire him. He’ll just take your money and run.

You (Benny Guzman) and I met at my home to review my deck project. we agreed to have you preform repairs on my deck in exchange for $500. $250 was paid upfront and the remainder was to be paid at the completion of the project. Both parties were provided a copy of the agreement. We scheduled the repairs for the morning on 7/23/20. On the morning of 7/23/20 I reached out to contact you Benny as I had not heard from, or seen him, the morning of the project. After exchanging phone calls and text messages, both parties agreed to cancel the project and have the $250 refunded. At this time I am actively trying to obtain the refund as agreed upon. He is being extremely difficult and not agreeing to meet with me at any specific time or place.

Do not hire this guy. Came out, gave me a bid, started the work, told me he needed more money, finished the job. We paid him in full. The paint started peeling off the deck a month or so later. By the end of winter nearly 1/3 had come off. We contacted him to ask him to come out and honor his 1 year guarantee - he said he would contact me when the weather broke. He did not contact me. We contacted him several times with no response. Ended up hiring another person to redo his terrible job.

We paid $2800 for Benny Guzman (It's Your Deck LLC) to do external painting on our house. Payments were made on 9/12/19 and then 10/1/19 for him to start work 1-3 days after the second payment, which was for paint and supplies. He never showed up. After several texts he finally got back to us and made numerous excuses, i.e. illness in family, the weather, his own illness, his cell phone not working. He rescheduled 4-5 times after we kept trying to track him down. Each time he never showed up and each time I had to contact him and track him down. Finally I saw that various complaints on BBB had been filed against him, as did poor reviews on google showing he had a history of taking money and not delivering services.

We chose this company because they had great ratings on Angie's List and the Better Business Bureau. They were fast to come out to quote the job and to clean the deck. We were told all of our old stain would not come off because it was difficult to get it off the knots. That was true, but it looks terrible. Benny told us their stain was better than what we had. He said it would soak into the wood and then after a couple weeks, it would magically pop back out. We waited for this to happen, but it never popped back out and looks like it is not well covered. There are spots that clearly were not covered with the stain and there are areas that were covered, but don't look like they were. We are not sure if it is covered enough to keep out the moisture. I called Benny and left a message for him to call me four times and even told him the last time that I would be posting a review here if I didn't hear from him. I never received a call back. I was really surprised because he was very responsive up front.

Loved the finished deck. Looks amazing!!! Structure is very sound now and safe for kids and pets. Great job overall. Friendly service.

We are very happy with the service and work performed. They were prompt and courteous. They honored their price and there were no surprises.

Everything went great. My deck had been stained two years ago, using an inferior product. When they cleaned the wood they got most of the unevenness from the old stain off. Now my front porch looks great.

Really lousy job. First, it was difficult to get anyone to return my calls and emails. They didn't show up on the days they said they would. Then, when they finally showed up, the staining was uneven and splotchy. They came back out to "fix" it, but made it look even worse. I chose them because their price was competitive and the person on the phone the first time I called seemed friendly. But now that I'm not getting called back, we plan on hiring someone to fix their work.

Benny Guzmann, owner of Its Your Deck, stained my deck in July of 2011. I had previously tried to do it myself and it didnt turn out. Benny was on time and did a great job! The end result was beautiful and he restained it in summer of 2012 at no additional cost. I'm truly impressed with his superior customer service and I highly recommend him to anyone.
