It was great to work with Nelson and get the repairs I needed done. He replaced my deck handrails/deck boards and repaired other deteriorated wood. Nelson kept in constant contact with updates on the project as we progressed until it was complete. I would absolutely call him again for any other projects!

Nelson remodeled my covered deck by constructing a new railing system, building new stairs, and adding a skirt along the bottom of the deck. He arrived every day on time, worked hard until the job was complete, and even worked on Easter Sunday! He has excellent workmanship, and came up with ideas to make the project better than I imagined. His pricing was great as well. I highly recommend Nelson, as he is a very skilled craftsman with an amazing work ethic!

Did a great job for the repair and painting of my garage trim. Showed up when he said he would and responded quickly from the first inquiry to the last.
I would definitely recommend using his services.

Nelson was excellent! He took care of four rotting columns on my front porch. He was responsive, polite, and nice! He came to my house four times to talk about my project. Then, he helped me save money by thinking of a different way to do it. Excellent work! Will use him again. Highly recommended!
