Absolutely outstanding craftsmanship and an incredible team! After a frustrating experience with a previous contractor whose work was already buckling and failing within three months, I hired Stryker and his team at Tuff Jobs to completely rebuild my deck from the ground up. I honestly could not have asked for a better experience or a more beautiful result. Marquis, who did the majority of the construction, is an absolute artist with an engineer's mind. His craftsmanship is extraordinary. Every board is perfectly aligned, every gap is meticulously spaced, and every detail reflects the pride he takes in his work. The deck isn't just beautiful — it's incredibly solid, thoughtfully constructed, and built to last. Marquis is a true perfectionist, and it shows in every inch of his work. Stryker, the owner, was equally impressive. He spent considerable time with me during the estimating and planning process, was incredibly responsive, and offered thoughtful design recommendations. What I particularly appreciated was his honesty about costs. Rather than upselling me, he suggested practical alternatives that achieved the same beautiful result without unnecessary expense. We also encountered an unexpected foundation issue after the old deck was demolished. I had to quickly find another contractor to handle the foundation repairs before the deck construction could continue. Stryker was incredibly accommodating, working with me to adjust the schedule and allow enough time for the foundation contractor to complete the repairs. Once that work was finished, he coordinated getting the deck construction back on the schedule and saw the project through to completion. His flexibility and responsiveness made what could have been a very stressful situation much easier to manage. What sets this team apart is their combination of exceptional craftsmanship, problem-solving ability, integrity, and genuine pride in their work. They're hands-on, knowledgeable, meticulous about doing things correctly and to code, and they clearly care about the finished product. After everything I went through with the previous contractor, working with Stryker, Marquis, and the Tuff Jobs team was an entirely different experience. They took a difficult situation and turned it into something I'm genuinely thrilled with. I cannot recommend them highly enough. If you want a deck that's not just built, but beautifully crafted by people who truly know what they're doing, this is the team to hire.

full transparency the whole way. had great idas and thoughtfulness regarding the job.
Stryker did a wonderful job on my new deck. He was easy to communicate with and I appreciated his flexibility. I even hired him to do some other things around my yard. Thanks!
We recently had our deck done and roof cleaned and couldn’t be happier with the results. The quality of work is outstanding! Stryker really brought our vision to life, and the finished deck looks amazing. We’ve already received so many compliments from friends and family. Highly recommend to anyone looking for reliable and high-quality deck work! Thank you!!
Working with Stryker has been a great experience from start to finish. He was very responsive, communicative, and kept me well informed throughout the entire process. The quality of the work is excellent, and the attention to detail really shows. I highly recommend working with him and will definitely keep him in mind for any future projects I may have.
We had a great experience working with Stryker on our front porch stairs. Communication was clear and professional from the beginning, and he took the time to explain the scope of work and potential issues upfront. The stair treads were replaced cleanly and carefully, and the stairs feel much more solid and safe after the work was completed. I also appreciated his attention to detail and willingness to address concerns as they came up.
Had a great experience with Tuff Jobs! Reasonable, honest, and quality in character and execution. Would definitely hire again!
Stryker is the best handyman/contractor I have ever worked with. Worked on things were hard to fix and he did a solid job.
Nice guy,but looked at my project,said would give me bid next day.Never heard from him,and been couple weeks.Would have liked a respond,even if didn't want job.
Tuff Jobs were on site to scope out the project next day, much more responsive than other vendors. They had a quote the same day - I am still waiting on official quotes from other vendors who visited. He began the job in bad weather conditions and executed high quality work over the course of 3 separate days. He was emphathetic to our needs and desires and consulted well with us to provide the perfect backyard deck for our unique situation in a tight and irregular space.
Stryker did an amazing job of removing the paint from our patio. He was professional, easy to work with, and came up with a great solution to fix our problem patio.
Excellent experience with Tuff Wash! Stryker was responsive, punctual and professional. Pressure washed my concrete in preparation for a clear coat sealer...check out the before/after photos for quality of work! Would definitely hire him again.
I was so impressed that Stryker came out the same day and took care of such a huge wrap-around porch into the evening giving it the best detail ever! All of the patrons at the Reunion Coffee House thank you!
