You can stop searching. If you're looking for help with your deck, Mike is THE guy.
I was searching, literally for months, trying to find someone who could fix our roof deck. There was a leak in our bathroom and our roof deck was definitely in bad shape. 3 guys scheduled then never showed up or called back. Another guy said I needed to get my husband's approval before they could send a written estimate (what?!). And everyone had the tone of they were doing ME a favor by adding me to their job list. I just didn't get the feeling that anyone really cared about actually fixing the deck. And it's not a cheap job so I couldn't bring myself to do it.
Enter Mike, he came in and basically did what nobody was willing to do which is go beyond the cement so we can see if any wood is damaged (of course there would be, it leaked through our ceiling). All the other guys recommended a resurface which would only take off the top layer and then add a new layer never addressing the compromised wood. So basically they'd just be putting a coat on top of compromised wood. I had a gut feeling that was wrong but literally everyone but Mike recommended that. Only Mike said, "Dion, it's gonna be more expensive but it's the right thing to do for long term." His price was still very reasonable and competitive. And I'm really glad I did it. When they got to the wood, there were 2-3 spots that were compromised that he replaced and treated.
Beyond that, him and his team are REALLY respectful of the property for both us and our neighbors. They were always so courteous and discreet during the entire time.
I've written this months out from the job to give you an honest review. Mike is not just someone who does a great job, he's someone who cares. And like the other review said, he is really such a GOOD guy.
Looking for a deck guy in the South Bay who won't rip you off is unfortunately such a big ask. They see beach cities and automatically the price goes up. So to ask for an honest, reliable guy with an equally good team and reasonable pricing is unicorn territory. Mike is that unicorn. Hire him and you won't regret it.
Thanks Mike for taking care of us! You're the best! read more
