He did a very good job except that I felt I had to tell him way too much. He was either too hurried or doing other jobs at the same time and I had to correct a lot of things. These were things that I thought he should have taken care of. I was the one that had to point them out, such as things being level and perpendicular were being overlooked. I felt I was paying pretty good money for this. It was actually very affordable and came out really nice. Had I not been available that week, he probably would have had to fix about eight different items. Every day he would work and then the next day, I would point out things that needed to be corrected. He was supposed to come back to do something else for me and he never came back, so I would probably not use him again.
Description of Work: I used Affordable Decks in July for my deck.

The job was terrible. The fence was done a week ago. The boards are too far apart and are already curling. I called them about this and he said he would come out to look at it and he never did. He argued with me that I was happy when he left but I didn't see the separation and the boards are just now starting to curl. Also when he finished, he said he wanted cash but I refused saying that this was not a part of the deal. After I submitted the report, he ended up coming out and looking at the work. He said that the fence was fine and there was nothing wrong with it. He said if I wanted him to repair the spaces, it would be at my own expense. He called my home and told me, "You better get rid of all that bad stuff you wrote about me or you don't want to know what I've got for you."
Description of Work: They built a 6 ft cedar fence in our side yard.

Everything went wrong, the deck is about 90% complete. Lots of little things that need to be done. He already took my money and is not completing what I paid him to do.

THIS LADY NEGOTIATED TO BUILD 2ND FLOOR WRAP AROUND DECK FOR THE REAR APARTMENT OF HER DOWNTOWN HOME. I HAD FINISHED THE WORK AND INCLUDED FREE EXTRA OUTSIDE LIGHT REPAIR, AS WELL AS OFFERING TO DO RETURNS ON WOOD BECAUSE A PRIOR CONTRACTOR WALKED OFF ON HER. THE WOOD WAS RETURNED AND I GAVE HER RECEIPTS. I PICKED UP MY SCRAPS IN HER YARD ON THE NEXT DAY AND SHE CALLED THE POLICE ON ME SAYING I DID NOT GET PERMISSION TO GO INTO HER YARD. THE POLICE JUST SUGGESTED THAT I STAY AWAY FROM HER AND THAT SOME PEOPLE WERE JUST THAT WAY. I ALWAYS BEND OVER BACKWARDS TO MAKE MY CUSTOMER HAPPY AND WISH THIS ISSUE HAD BEEN DISCUSSED WITH ME WHEN IT WAS POSTED ON THIS SITE. IF YOU HAVE A PROJECT I HAVE HUNDREDS OF PEOPLE IN SAN ANTONIO THAT WILL HIGHLY RECOMMEND ME. I SELDOM EVEN TAKE MONEY UP FRONT ANY WAY! I DO NOT SWINDLE ANYONE OUT OF MONEY AND ALWAYS COMPLETE PROJECTS. I AM NEVER FINISHED UNTIL THE CUSTOMER IS HAPPY.

Mr. Bradshaw came out with his son to provide an estimate for the work. Their estimate was reasonable. We chose to go with them for the work. I called back to schedule a project date, and Mr. Bradshaw said he would call back with a potential date to discuss specifics. His son called back four days later, and told us we needed to meet to re-discuss the estimate. I was somewhat confused by this, but scheduled a date to meet anyway. At the appointed time, no one showed up. I received a call the next day from Mr. Bradshaw informing me that he was not going to perform our project. I was taken aback by this unprofessional behavior, and I would suggest that anyone considering using these contractors do so with caution.
Description of Work: Estimate for screening in porch. Estimate $2500.

THIS BUSINESS HAS MANY REPEAT CUSTOMERS AND MANY REFERRALS FROM HAPPY CUSTOMERS. I PUBLISH MY NAME IN ALL ADVERTISEMENTS BECAUSE FOLLOW-UP AND RESPECT ARE MOST IMPORTANT TO ME. ON THIS PARTICULAR PROJECT, THE CUSTOMER WANTED LAST MINUTE CHANGES SUCH AS USING CERAMIC TILES ON TOP OF ROOF INSTEAD OF SHINGLES. THE WEIGHT LOAD AND BUILD REQUIREMENTS CHANGED COMPLETELY BUT HE STILL WANTED THE SAME PRICE. SORRY ABOUT THAT BUT SOME PEOPLE WANT TO GET OVER ON YOU AND IT IS TOO BAD THIS WAS POSTED ON ANGIE'S LIST FOR OVER A YEAR BEFORE I EVEN FOUND OUT ABOUT IT. MY PHONE NUMBER IS OBVIOUSLY LISTED BUT I WAS NEVER CONTACTED.
