Recently needed to replace an existing deck that was over 20 years old. I went on line for quotes and was surprised at the differences quoted. I found South Shore Deck Builders who I called. The on line reviews were good, and I received a return call promptly from the owner, Reggie Newcomb. Reggie came to my house the next day and reviewed the project, took measurements, suggested materials and gave me a reasonable quote on the spot, which was less that half of some previous quotes. It was an easy decision. I paid a 50% deposit, and Reggie advised when the materials would be delivered. The original deck had to be disassembled and disposed of. He, also provided the dumpster to remove the old deck, and his crew proceeded in building the most impressive replacement deck. The materials used will last for years and the craftsmanship of their work was meticulous. They cleaned up all materials and when all was done I was very impressed and thankful for choosing South Shore Deck Builders. I recommend contacting Reggie for any deck project you may be considering. You will not be disappointed.Posted on Debbie CarboneTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.
