We hired Jesse to build our deck and privacy fence, and we couldn’t be happier with both how the entire process went from start to finish. We didn’t initially have a clear vision of what we wanted, but Jesse was patient, friendly, & knowledgeable, and he helped us turn our dreary cramped deck into a cheerful, inviting, and much larger space. Communication was excellent throughout the process & Jesse was very patient with our many questions 🙂 He was also reliable, super hard-working, and clearly talented - I’m still amazed he did this whole deck himself! We are so happy with how both the fence and the deck turned out, & we have nothing but great things to say about Jesse & his work. He kept us in the loop at every point in the process & every detail of the project was done with care and precision. He’s a gem- we’ve already recommended Ground Zero Exteriors to several others!

Jesse was amazing! We couldn’t get anyone to call us back for our small project and Jesse responded immediately and kept in great contact the entire time. He gave us a quick estimate and got to work! We were on a short deadline and Jesse accommodated us without question. Our patio steps look AMAZING and are exactly what we wanted. This work will last forever. Would 10/10 recommend!

I was given Jesse name as a possible handyman. But he is so much more. I can do practically anything or he will try to research it out. He is very fair in cost, honest and reliable. I highly recommend him.

Ground Zero Inspections did a very thorough review of our property. Very impressed with their work. They made it a point to cover every inch of the property and make sure we were aware of every potential issue. We would definitely recommend their services to anyone and everyone.
