We just sold our house and were reminiscing on all that has happened here and this incident was discussed. At that time, I was young, and my mother (a single mother) was doing a major renovation to our attic, creating a third floor and adding 4 rooms and a dormer. She hired Bill Moore for the job and it started off fairly well. The dormer was done, and the rough framework for the stairs and rooms was assembled. He had all the drywall delivered and put up, (not mudded or sanded) and then DeckMasters never returned to the job site and would not return phone calls. He manipulated my mother into taking out the permits in her name, had her pay most of the costs upfront, and abandoned the job site not completing the work she had paid for. We had to pull in additional contractors and the job took 4x as long as originally estimated. If my mother went after him we would have had to pay legal fees and at that time, especially in the middle of an addition, that was not feasible.

We hired WND flooring for a floor project, a few years back and for the floor project he did a good…read morejob...but then...we gave him an opportunity to do "more", as he had showed customers and projects for additions, etc. and we liked him as a person. So late summer of 2022, we hired him to renovate a 3-season room, re-haul our front porch and build a new pool shed. Between the services, delays, failed inspections and REDOs (yup we had to have a good deal of work redone because it wasn't up to code), we told WND that we would not be moving ahead with the Front Porch. Deposits and/or payments in full had been made for all 3 projects. We were at our wits end. Then, trying to move forward and just finish our relationship with a delivery of a fully paid for manufactured shed, he ends up basically ghosting us, keeping our funds, all while taking on other work. We went through nearly a year of run around and excuses for lack of delivery for a shed delivery (that was PAID for in full (check cashed in October of 2022) that was never delivered. His "buddy", the one he purchased the shed from, was unable to deliver, etc. etc., etc. We have pictures of the shed we paid for and the check cashed, as well as descriptions from Willy and confirmation of size, cost, etc. and as you can see, our "pad for the shed" still sits empty. After MONTHS of excuses, the option we presented to him was to just return the fees (Totaling $ 9,900.00. Of course this never happened. When we asked for his current insurance binder (to go after his insurance company as they could deal with his "friend" directly (the insurance waiver he gave had expired), he "couldn't find it". Monday, July 31 we gave Willy an option to reimburse funds, or we would need to go through legal proceedings. We were looking to be reimbursed the full cost of the shed (cashed $8,400.00 and an additional $1500 for electrical services for the shed that were already paid for, and we have cancelled checks into Willy's account that verify this). He stated on the July 31st to my son, as well as texted me after I again contacted him about the situation at 11:13 at night ,that he would have a certified check, which did not happen. At that point, we were not going to go after other items that should have been reimbursed. Not having the shed led to the destruction of several of our power tools and lawn/gardening/pool equipment because of the elements and the inclement weather is sustained as it waited on our pool deck for MONTHS for him to deliver the shed (even have a nice picture of what he allegedly purchased). As stands to date the first picture is of where the shed was supposed to go. Never delivered. The "blue shed" was what we paid in full for, as were all of the electrical hook ups! As the previous reviews note, it has been a nightmare. We are seeking restitution. My family does not want anyone else to have to go through this. Our Saga started in September of 2022. I wish the reviews were on here then.

He is not a finish carpenter and should not represent himself as one. We have more trim pieces throughout his work to cover edges. I wish we knew this before hiring him. Also found out he is not honest. We (stupidly trusted him) paid him in full for windows and a slider and labor in November, along long story short.. he never came back to put in either.. finally showed up with the wrong window brought casement instead of replacement. Took him 8 hours he blamed us and the house.. We no longer trusted him,After many nasty texts from him...we agreed he would refund the money we had paid him. This took weeks to months when he gave me a check , it was out of a closed account ( cough: by accident) the police became involved with threat of a felony charge.. it took him 7 days before he met me at the police station with a cashiers check. This saga began in November.. we dealt with this till the following June! Beware..

He communicated with us throughout the project of installing a new Timberteck deck. His crew worked straight on through from start to finish without empty lapses of time. The men are so highly skilled. We continue to be happy with our beautiful deck. Therefore, we asked Ruy to install a Timberteck stair rail at our front doors, which also has withstood the test of time. We'd been concerned that installments like this would compromise the brick, whereby requiring a total rebuild, but a rebuild wasn't necessary. He also advise us on an easy and effective fix to divert water from flowing from the gutter and freezing to ice on those brick steps in winter. Based on the outcome of these projects, and our experience in their progression, we highly recommend this company.

Brutal experience with them back in 2022-2024. Would take weeks and, more than once, even months…read moreto get them to come back and do any work (see screenshots of my text interactions with them -- note the dates). They were supposed to build a new rubber roof. It started leaking on 3 separate occasions (which btw was never fully fixed -- we moved on to different contractors who did address the issues). And like I said, it would take months for them to actually come back and attempt to fix anything. Often they'd come by, look at the damage, then I wouldn't hear from them for multiple weeks. Meanwhile, more damage continues to accrue to the walls and ceilings. The internal fixes they applied for the water damage were just patch jobs. They just plastered and painted over. Meanwhile, the insulation behind the wall was soaked and accrued black mold that we had to address later. Also worth pointing out a major blunder at the beginning of the project (see attached videos and pics). They opened up the roof, and left it open for multiple days without doing any work. Well of course a major rainstorm came by (which was on the weather forecast well in advance). Alll that water poured into the house in the middle of the night setting off fire alarms. It was a nightmare to deal with on my end.

However, I thought the materials estimate for the post to be replaced in the porch was too high. Home Depot's price was $100 less. Matt checked it out and agreed to get the post at Home Depot and pass on the savings to me. Then, when I told him I only needed 3 window trims replaced instead of 4, he abruptly stopped returning my calls. The morning he had agreed to do the job, I called him again. He then told me he was no longer interested in doing the job because I had beat him up on the price???? I find this behavior very unprofessional. I wasted precious days waiting and now I need to start the process again!

The stairs were tricky due to existing structures (old house) but they figured out the best approach and executed it beautifully. PBS handled the permit, the check for gas/water lines, and multiple inspections. All I had to do was make a couple decisions when presented with options, and then sit back and relax. Work proceeded on time, in pretty much all weather--in fact they started the day after a February blizzard, which didn't seem to bother them at all!
