Fencemax

Max and his crew are an absolute pleasure to work with! We couldn’t be happier with our overall experience! We had Max build the decking around our new pool. Max helped tremendously with the design and was keen to make suggestions (which we needed and welcomed)! He has great attention to detail and pride in his work. He doesn’t just oversee a crew, he is out there working hard. At the outset of the big job, we asked Max to finish a part by a certain date. Well, the rains came and didn’t stop! Nonetheless, Max and crew were out there working during many rainy days in order to keep his word.
We are impressed and so happy with his work! We will always go back to Max for any building/​decking needs!

I have never been more impressed with a contractor.
First, even though the company is «Fencemax,» they build amazing exterior decks and patios. I think they build fences too.
The Bid
Max’s crew works at a set hourly rate (it’s really reasonable when compared to say… a plumber). While, that doesn’t seem like a big deal at first, after dealing with probably 12 different bids over the course of a remodel, all trying to gouge me where they can, I found this to be incredibly honest. He is the only contractor, out of 12, to hand me a bid that openly lists material costs (so you know then what you are paying in labor). And if along the way there’s a problem, (if you are like me and own a 100 yr old house, there WILL be problems) Max will charge you time plus materials… He doesn’t make prices up.
The Design
Max designed a heavy timber, tongue-​in-​groove, covered patio with a wrap around pergola, and composite deck for us. It looks even better than it sounds. It was made to fit the look and style of our house. It really moved us from being a ho’hum craftsman, to a standout on the block. We took other bids from a few guys with pretty impressive resumes, and their designs didn’t even come close. Their bids were also twice as much.
The Work
He showed up on the day he said he would, and worked full days until the job was finished. He showed up with every piece of material he needed, and would even lay out by-​the-​day what he would get done. Other than lunch, I did not see him or his guys stop working, period. It also really impressed me that even though Max runs the business, and does the design, he also leads work on the project.
Finish Product
If you can’t tell, we love the deck. So do the neighbors. I’ve met at least 20 people on the block, and I’ve seen people cross the street to tell us how wonderful everything turned out.
