Julio and his team should be avoided. They damaged my home both inside and out, took money from insurance for work they did not complete, and still have not finished the job they were paid for over two months ago.

Everything You Need to Know About Evanston Deck Builders
How does invoicing/payment work for most Deck Contractor projects in Evanston?
Every project differs, but you should ask any deck contractor for an estimate, before they do any work. In fact, ask for their general payment terms before any decking services work is done.
If the job is large and going to take longer than a day, it's common practice for deck contractors to request a down payment. Usually, this will be around 25% so they can commence work on your deck contractor project.
If it's a quick job, you'll likely be given an invoice/bill when the job is complete. Then it's up to you and the deck contractor to determine if you pay immediately or can send payment at a later date.
