Our 25 year old wood/fiberglass deck was showing rot and needed a new surface and new railings. We chose Citywide because they were one of the few to offer a wide range of colours on the aluminum railings, which was a must-have for us (we wanted a non-standard green). The demo/carpentry crew was very prompt, friendly, and professional and cleaned up after themselves on a daily basis. We had a new surface to sit on within two weeks! The railings took a bit longer - custom production - but once ready were installed in about 30 minutes. We are very happy with the end result - looks fantastic! . One note: the original quote did not include the extra carpentry required to replace rotted wood - this added about 30% to the expense (we were prepared) and Citywide did discuss this with us - however, they didn't give us a cost estimate of the repair work. It didn't bother us, but if you are on a tight budget then be sure to ask for numbers when such discussions happen.
bottom line: would not hesitate to use them again; definitely recommend Citywide.

Hi Reena,
We are happy that you think your deck is fantastic and would recommend us. We strive to make our quotes as accurate as possible, but we are not always able to give a hard estimate for rot repair costs before starting a project. This is because we can't always determine the extent of rot until we complete demolition of the existing structure.
Thanks,
Trevor and the Citywide Team
