    patio

    We love our patio now. It was easy to work with Kastus, he explained everything, gave us options re wood types and other materials. We'd recommend Kastus to anyone who wants a reliable contractor.

    Refreshed deck, got rid of the squeaking planks, filled in cracks and a new coat of paint.

    Its been 4 years since Kastus worked on our deck. The Cupertino sun takes a beating so we needed a refresh and also to have our cement floor pressure washed from algae growing in shaded area under the trees. Great job as expected. Very happy with the results.

    Kastus is a true professional carpenter! He is very detail- oriented and takes great pride in his work. He thinks of things that you have not considered and makes excellent suggestions. Is very reliable and trustworthy and is very reasonable in his fees. He just finished our lower deck where we will put our hot tub and we plan on having him build our upper deck next, which is a bigger project. I highly recommend him.

    Kastus did a fabulous job on our pergola that needed a lot of TLC. He was prompt, diligent and very communicative through the entire work process. Apart from surprises along the way on the amount of work that was needed, he doubled the time needed on the project so he could leave behind exemplary work. I highly recommend Kastus for any decks and yard contractor work.

    Kastus did a great job remodeling our pool decking. It was a complex piece of work requiring significant planning to make bespoke wooden fittings. The work was done very professionally, he is an artist and perfectionist. I am very happy with the results and we are already working with him on our next project.

    A-1 did a great job replacing a 120' side fence and adding a front yard fence for us in San Mateo…read more Matt and the office team were patient and thorough when providing a quote. They worked with me on figuring out how to hide a sump pump pipe and navigating through our neighbor's concerns. The build quality is very nice and the crew was great about making adjustments for issues we discovered during the build. They even made the back of the fence look nice for our neighbor by covering the sump pipe. Communication with Wilson and his onsite crew was great. They also did a very good job cleaning up. They didn't have the cheapest quote but I felt this is one of those kind of things where you get what you pay for. For something we see every day I wanted it to be right. Great job A1!

    A-1 Fence Company absolutely deserves all 5 stars. From the first visit to the final walkthrough,…read moreMatt and his team made both my home project and my mom's fence replacement completely stress-free. Homeowner experience I hired A-1 Fence to replace an aging fence at my house, and the difference is night and day. Matt took the time to walk the property with me, explain options, and give a clear, detailed estimate with no surprises. The crew showed up exactly when they said they would, worked efficiently, and left my yard cleaner than they found it. The new fence looks fantastic, feels solid, and has already gotten compliments from neighbors. Work on my mom's house After seeing the quality of their work at my place, I had A-1 Fence come out to my mom's house for a much-needed fence and gate upgrade. Matt was incredibly patient with her questions, never rushed her, and helped her choose something safe, secure, and attractive. His team treated her property with real respect, checked in with her at every key step, and made sure she was comfortable with the plan and timeline. Knowing my mom now has a sturdy, professionally installed fence gives our family real peace of mind. Matt and his team Matt is the kind of owner you want on any project: responsive, honest, and deeply knowledgeable about fencing and gates. He returned calls and emails quickly, kept us updated on scheduling, and personally checked the work when it was done. His foreman and crew clearly take pride in their craftsmanship--every line is straight, the posts are set perfectly, and the finish work is meticulous. You can tell this is a long-standing, family-run business that cares more about doing it right than just getting it done fast. Why I'd recommend them Between my home and my mom's, we got consistent, top-tier service, fair pricing, and beautiful results from A-1 Fence. They handled everything--from removal of the old fence to the final cleanup--with professionalism and courtesy. If you're in the Bay Area and need any kind of residential fencing, I would not waste time shopping around; call Matt at A-1 Fence and you'll be in excellent hands.

This was not my first time working with Leo and his team -- I've partnered with them several times over the past ten years at different properties, and they continue to exceed my expectations. Leo promptly returned my initial call and scheduled a site visit within just a few days. Shortly after, he provided a detailed quote, and we arranged the project timeline around his understandably busy schedule. When rain interfered with our original installation date, Leo was quick to coordinate a new date as soon as the weather cooperated. On installation day, Leo and his crew arrived on time and fully prepared. The team was outstanding -- communicative, professional, and respectful of the property throughout the entire process. At the end of each workday, the site was left clean and tidy. The project took nearly three days to complete, and I couldn't be happier with the final result. It was truly a pleasure working with Leo and his team once again. I would not hesitate to contact HH Fence and Deck Company for future projects and confidently recommend them to anyone seeking quality craftsmanship and dependable service.

The entire crew and all subcontractors were professional, communicative, and helpful from start to finish. We especially appreciated how transparent they were throughout the permit process. Techwood handled everything for us -- design, engineering, permits, and construction -- which made the entire experience smooth and stress-free. Managing all of those moving parts on our own would have been incredibly challenging, so we're very grateful to have had Techwood oversee the entire project. We're thrilled with the look and quality of the TimberTech product and would absolutely recommend Techwood to anyone considering a new deck. We'd gladly work with them again!

Final results are beautiful, quality, craftsmanship, and attention to detail. Very happy with all the work they did in the back of the house so we hired them to do additional work to the front of our house and replaced all wood with PVC product and all handrails and banisters with metal. They look absolutely gorgeous. I found their communication software very user friendly. Payment process was disclaimed at front based on milestones. Of course there's always glitches in the process and it wouldn't be fair to leave a review without mentioning them. 1- working to get architecture and engineering completed took a few months. 2- a significant surprising unsightly design change was not disclosed. There were additional costs to cover it up. 3- designer renderings showed all wood posts and joist in black paint but this was not included in the original cost, this was another significant cost increase. 4- all decks were to have lights on all railings, that was on the original contract. However, we were told later that the cost of an electrician was not included in our contract. This was yet another cost surprise. Overall, I am very pleased with everything as they addressed every single item that needed to be addressed and it looks beautiful. I will definitely hire them again, but just make sure to ask all posible questions no matter how silly to ensure that everything is included in that upfront quote and there are no surprises.

Another one wanted to tear down the existing deck and make repairs to the foundation as needed. Carlos, on the other hand, felt that most of my existing wood was ok and suggested that we just replace pieces as needed, and also make repairs to the foundation as needed. His approach seemed reasonable to me and much more cost effective. I also told him I had a very tight timeline because I needed to have the deck ready for an upcoming party. Carlos and he team started right away and with minimal input needed from me throughout the project, it was completed very quickly - on time and on budget. I'd alway recommend that people check with several companies before selecting a vendor, but if you are looking to repair or replace your deck, make sure your first call is to Carlos at Total Wood Preservation!

They have also done some cedar siding refresh work that turned out quite well. I feel fortunate to have found Carlos and his team: they are a rare breed nowadays!

[The following was edited to provide a play by play to show I acted in good faith and communicated my concerns _several times_ before giving up.] We scheduled work to start on a Friday. The job was for a straight railing of about 11 ft to replace our old railing that was rotted out. I asked that the new railing be installed into studs, because the previous railing mounts were loose and I didn't want the same thing to happen with the new railing. The contractors didn't show up until 4:30PM that day. I helped them plug in the welder and they got to work removing the old railing and then installing the new. Several times the welder blew our fuse so I reset it. The crew left that night without a word. The next day I went to check out the work. The new railing was installed in the same place as the old, not in studs, was rounded around the corner and covering our mailbox, and had been spray painted in place, getting black paint all over our beige exterior walls. Needless to say I was extremely surprised at the job and what had been done. It was almost comically bad. Just see the attached picture. I called Roman to voice my frustration. I mentioned I was unhappy with the obvious things but also that the railing had not been secured (a few tugs on the railing would likely pull it out) and that the end of the pipe (because that was what was installed as a railing, plumbing pipe) was not sealed, leaving an unfinished, unprofessional look. He agreed to come back, remove the curved railing blocking my mail slot, paint the wall, and that he would address my concerns. Again, the crew came by late in the day (sensing a trend here, I think they were maybe overbooked and coming from another job, but I speculate...). The wall was painted and the curved piece was cut. That was it. The welds were obvious, seams were visible where returns had been installed, the spray paint was already chipping. I called Roman. I made very clear my frustration with the apparent lack of quality, that it seemed there was a focus on getting things done quickly rather than well, and that my concerns and requests weren't being addressed. He said he would come back and address my concerns. I sent a text also describing these concerns. He cancelled the next scheduled visit. He called a while later but at this point I had moved on and wasn't willing to engage further. I had only agreed to pay half of the job up front, so I wanted to cut my losses and move on. This was supposed to be what I thought would be a simple steel railing installation. It turned out to be quite the opposite. On the plus side, I only agreed to pay half up front. So there's that.
