Emma N.

Very professional and the quality of work was outstanding! I had an old deck removed and replaced with Trex with vinyl posts. They also put lattice a with a gate around the bottom of the deck to hide underneath. The deck looks elegant and will last a very very very long time. The owner and crew were very responsive to my texts and questions. I highly recommend!

My front porch had a decretive railing that caused leaking where it connected to the roof. The former owner must have left it leaking for years based on the water damage observed. Alex and the Deck Soldier team took off the old roof, replaced all the rotted wood and redesigned the roof as a pitched shingle roof as requested. Communication was good throughout. The team arrived when they said they would and did quality work at a reasonable price. Very happy overall.

Deck soldier / Better living sunrooms completed building a four season sunroom on my existing deck in June 2025. They provided me the best quote and took care of the entire process. They sent very good workers who knew the process well and built the structure per my satisfaction . Their communication was clear and there was no overpromise anytime . I had very good experience working with their project manager Mr Barrett Day

Taking 3 years to respond to the review summarizes it all. Fortunately, we found an amazing deck company, and have had no mold issues.

We needed to have our old deck rebuilt in 2026, and we found Agustin via personal recommendation. From the very beginning he was more responsive than other contractors we were exploring, and he even made some suggestions that improved the design while keeping costs low. His crew worked quickly and did a great job (even in hot, muddy conditions). Agustin even checked back with us after the completion of the job to make sure that we had not encountered any issues. I would definitely work with him again.

The crew provided meticulous attention to detail and communication during the process was clear. They cleaned up the work area everyday after they completed their task. There were small cost overruns, but they were reasonable. I would contact them without hesitation for another job. The professionalism helped ease the stress of such a large endeavor. I am excited about enjoying my new outdoor space. I was pleased with the outcome and would highly recommend Creative Exteriors Plus.

Kevin, our Salesperson came to the house and discussed our project (white vinyl railing around front porch and handrails on both sides of steps.) He understood exactly what we wanted done. We had a budget in mind and after meeting with Kevin went over our budget very little. Chris, Project Supervisor, was our next visitor. Chris reaffirmed measurements. Seven days later we met Christian and Hector our Installers. They were EXCELLENT! Very friendly, polite, and hard workers. After railings were completed they cleaned up, and even wiped down the railings. Even though we went a little over budget, we truly believe we got our moneys worth. Thanks again, Kevin, Chris, Christian and Hector?

Chris was fantastic to work with. He listened to exactly what we wanted, delivered everything he promised, and gave us a great price. The entire process was seamless--from the initial quote and permitting to the installation. Their team handled all of the permitting for us, kept us informed every step of the way, and communicated exceptionally well throughout the project. What impressed us most was how efficiently everything was completed. Our entire project was finished in just one week, and the quality of the work is outstanding. If you're looking for a company that is professional, honest, organized, and delivers exceptional results, I highly recommend Fence & Deck Connection. We had an amazing experience and would absolutely use them again!

The crews…read morethat came were very friendly but they would ask us where certain materials were so we were constantly the ones having to call the owner (Rick) or the supervisor (Nathan) to ask them questions for the workers. The supervisor would tell us one thing and the owner would tell us another. No one was on the same page. After the work was completed, I have contacted the owner and supervisor more than 20x to get some things fixed, like cracking walls from where they did drywall too close to my vent system (so now it makes a loud boom sound every time it turns on) and the closet doors being put on the wrong way so we struggle to get them open. I keep being told "I'll put you on the schedule" and we never hear from them. It has been 6 months and still no one has shown up to fix this stuff!!!! I would not recommend.

We checked 5 different services in the area and references were very mixed. One of our friends referred us to ACE - Eldersburg and had a great experience with them so we decided to give them a try. Callback after the first inquiry was very prompt, same day and after an email exchange to show some photos of the work we needed, we had the agreement and date. Rosemarie Jones was extremely friendly and efficient in the office for scheduling us and arranging all the details and dates, and we could not be more pleased. Richard, the craftsman was just over and above on every part of the project, from being on time (even slightly early the first day), extremely polite and friendly, but most of all in his workmanship. We've all heard the nightmare stories of 'jackleg' home improvement projects, and we were really concerned because this project had some challenges that came with it being a 50 year old home with some unique construction obstacles to overcome. Despite the challenges, Richard some up with professional solutions for shoring up the area under the deck to support the railing and to mounting a 2'x12' backing beam to the upstairs smaller deck to mount the railing. BY HIMSELF. All in all he just nailed it and we highly recommend ACE and Richard. The price was fair and reasonable, but the craftsmanship was priceless! And for what it's worth, Richard politely declined my offer of a cash tip. It was very warm in late May when he did the work, and had his mask on the whole time (Covid era!) & I felt he deserved something extra but it was not to be. That's about as professional as it gets. Thanks Ace & Richard!

I filled out the online form and within a few hours, Lisa contacted me. Cliff came out to look at the space within a few days. I was so impressed with his knowledge (permits, codes, expectations, etc.) and what we would need to do in order to make everything work. We loved the deck design he came up with and were excited they could fit us in before the end of the season. They only have one crew, so we did have to wait a few months until they started. Cliff kept us up-to-date on the start time and what to expect on weekly (or more than weekly) basis. We were so happy with the quality of craftsmanship and the friendliness of the crew, I can understand why they only have one crew. Cliff is on-site for (and assisting with) the build. He was honest, friendly and very accommodating. I cannot say enough about Whitmer Decks. You should use them!

From our very first meeting with Cliff (the company owner!) to the final walk-through with Sam, the project manager, the experience was exceptional every step of the way. The communication throughout the entire process was outstanding. Not once did we feel anything less than a top priority. Texts were answered within an hour, and emails were always returned within hours. That level of responsiveness gave us complete confidence and peace of mind. Mike, Pavlo, and Wade were the primary builders, and they were phenomenal. They treated us like rock stars during the entire three-and-a-half-week build. Mike, the lead carpenter, took the time to explain every phase of the project in detail, which my wife and I truly appreciated. Whitmer Decks removed our old deck and built a beautiful new 14x12 screened porch, along with a 10x10 deck and staircase. I'm no professional photographer, but the results speak for themselves--we are absolutely thrilled. We can't wait for warmer weather so we can fully enjoy our stunning new space. The craftsmanship is simply incredible. These guys are true artists. Every time we look at the work Whitmer Decks completed, we're blown away all over again. Thank you to Cliff, Sam, Mike, Pavlo, Wade, Keen--and Spark Roofing as well. You are all amazing, and we will not hesitate to give our highest recommendation to anyone who asks. I want to mention that their estimate/upgrade process was incredibly easy and actually fun to work with! Each upgrade came with about 5-10 photos that were VERY helpful in envisioning what the final product would actually look like! With gratitude, Shawn Purcell
