Build a new deck and stairs in my garage
Alex is NOT a carpenter and shouldnt advertise that he is. The stairs treads are tilted down and he said it is for water to drain. They are 1/2 lower at the front of the tread than the back He asked me how far apart I wanted the spindles I told him there is a law about how far apart they can be. He built mine anywhere from 3 to 5 apart.They cannot be more than 4. He asked me how high I wanted the handrail, I told him same as before,in fact it is 1 1/2 lower. The handrail at the front is not level. He didnt cut the spindles at an angle to match the handrail as you go down the stairs. When I sent him an email the next day pointing out the deficiencies he said no way was he redoing the work but I had to pay him for the material anyway. He wanted $400.00 , however there was not $400.00 in material in here and agreed on $300.00. Now I am in the process of finding a REAL carpenter who knows how to build a deck and stairs.
