Pro Deck & Design

I had a great experience with Randy and his guys. Randy was very friendly and helpful. I felt like he was giving me a fair price. He was a bit disorganized and I had to follow up with him a couple of times to ensure the appointment, but the quality of his work and his price were great. I would happily use him again.

When I left this review the owner of this company Randy Everhart sent this message to me knowing that my father had passed away last summer from pancreatic cancer just before my daughter was born so he never got to meet her. He knew that I was doing the outdoor space for my children in honor of his memory:
«There is obviously something mentally wrong with you.
I bet your father would be proud…»
Ask youself if this is the type of person you want working for you and YOUR family? Do you even have to read the rest of the review?
(Do be sure to read through screened reviews to the first one discussing his bankruptsy in 2011 and the guy he screwed over.)
Original review:
3 mos he screwed around, one excuse after another. Disorganized, had to call repeatedly to ask the status. Tried to get me to pay more for him to do the job in the time frame he stated because he said he under bid. Then acted irritated when I said no. Never called when he was supposed to call and never did what he was supposed to do until finally, 3 mos in, a week before my job is supposed to be DONE, it was never even started and we said we’re DONE with this crap!
I have no doubt the work would have been quality, but first you have to show up to do the work. no thanks.

To the comment below apologizing would have been better than lying… WARNING TO WOMEN trying to deal with this guy apparently he thinks we’re stupid. First of all if you are noting that you are having problems w/​negative comments being left up too long, clearly this is not the only negative you have gotten, including an unresolved complaint with the better business bureau which I found too late. NEVER did I try to add extras unless I paid for them, YOU did however try to sell me a bunch of crap I didn’t want and try to get me to pay more over and over again. Your original bid was 15k for the large portion of the job + 2k for the small portion of the job. which you somehow ended up charging me 20k which I agreed to because you found out that was what I had saved up and then backed me into a corner with a sob story (apparently a door/​screen door and ceiling fan cost 3k I guess? Those were the only extras I asked for.), and then you wanted 24k when you knew it was too late for me to get the job done in time by anyone else??? He didn’t appear to have a clue from one visit to the next what he said or what we discussed lost his notes and never even filed for the engineering report or permit from the city which was a HUGE red flag. Bid me a screen porch with cedar then snuck in to the 2^nd drawing after I refused to pay more than he bid «treated NO cedar.» (His exact words were «You mean you won’t pay me more if I get your job done on time?»)
Refusing to work for someone means that you say «I’m sorry, I don’t think I want to work for you.» Screwing around and not doing the work you sign on for, trying to force someone into paying more for work than you originally bid it, and lying time and time again about why and when you will or will not be showing up to work after promising you can do something in a certain time frame (I gave you a 2 month window already for a 2 week job.), costs you business. Those things result in negative comments.
FINALLY tells me he can’t start the 3^rd week in a row following the date he promised (over a month in advance) because he lost an entire crew. LOST a entire CREW??? Why does that happen? #1 because you can’t pay them, #2 because they walk off the job for some other reason. this does NOT happen to quality businesses. I saved all your voice mails, text messages, and altered drawings, continue to act like I was at fault not you, I will offer to let anyone and everyone hear/​read them. Your own words. Those don’t lie.

I found Randy and Pro-​Deck & Design’s website via Craiglist. I called Randy and he came out immediately to give us a quote. After getting a couple of different bids, we chose Randy based upon both price and overall level of professionalism. We are thrilled with the way our deck turned out! Very high quality and looks fantastic. Randy and his team are very hard workers, did not take breaks, and finished the job right on time. They were also very sweet to our two young boys and very curious dog :). I would 100% recommend Pro Deck and Design — they did a superb job!
