Mr. Alwill came in his Bermuda shorts and flip flops to view and give me a quote on repairing my old redwood deck. After viewing it and a short discussion where I asked him two or three questions to explain some of his comments, he said ""I think you should get another contractor"" turned and left and refused to explain himself.
I have dealt with contractors over 50 years in three countries and have never been treated with such rudeness.
This man is a prima donna. After reviewing his company on the web I understand he sub-contracts the work and is very expensive, with mixed results.
Save yourself problems, find a professional, courteous contractor, which he is not.
