Michael and his team were godsends! They were so great helped us with everything from carrying really heavy pieces to furniture assembly to identifying unknown maintenance problems! They helped us with more than we had asked for and were able to pick up items for us as well Michael responded really quickly and was so so so nice and considerate we’re so grateful for his team they worked so hard and helped take out all of the boxes and trash from everything and made it all as easy for us as possible. Thank you so so so much Michael and everyone else! And thank you so much Zach!

I had to take my ramp apart when I moved. Michael and his sons were able to put it back together using all the original pieces, screws, and tar paper in about an hour and a half — less time then he originally estimated. He also made sure that it was at a slight angle, so it'll drain away from the house the next time it rains. All that's let for us to do now is to give it a new paint job. Thanks, Michael!
Details: 2 - 5 hours (A few different projects) • Repairs • Deck or porch • Home
