The job presented many challenges since Dana and his crew had to work with previously existing poor workmanship. Decosta Construction rose to the challenge, presenting us with a few different options and helping us to decide what would work best for our budget and needs. Dana and the crew started promptly, finished quickly, cleaned up well, worked with some special requests we had, and overall provided great service. The roof looks beautiful and is keeping us warm and dry. We would certainly work with Decosta Construction again.Thank you!

Good luck to Mr. Woodward and Decosta Construction thanks you very much for giving us the work.

We’ve been asked to come in and finish a few walls to enclose a 2nd floor furnace & A/C unit, then finish-trim the entire room, paint the walls and ceiling, then carpet the room. 

This job, though a small one is what DeCosta Construction is all about.  We don’t treat any job as being too small.  They are just as important to us as they are to you.  We will post some pictures here, once the job starts.  Stay tuned!
