“Had a noisy, jerky garage door that was getting worse. CrestLine replaced worn rollers, realigned the tracks, and installed a new weather seal at the bottom. The door is whisper-quiet now and the garage stays warmer. Very professional crew.”

“Water damage from a roof leak left a big section of our ceiling wrecked. They cut out the damaged drywall, replaced it, mudded, sanded, and painted. Looks like nothing ever happened. Really impressed.”

“Had an old rotting wood deck torn down and a new Trex deck installed. Also added a pergola. The craftsmanship is solid and it looks fantastic. Great for entertaining this summer.”
