JUNK Deck Costs Homeowner THOUSANDS!!

Precision Craft out of St. Louis Missouri promised a deck addition and left behind the absolute worst deck I have seen to date. Pure junk. So bad. This poor homeowner hired me to perform a deck inspection on this deck. She paid this contractor thousands of dollars and after nearly 5 months left the homeowner with this mess. #deckconstruction #decks #deckbuilding Support Cheryl (homeowner) in helping her get her money back from this deck: https://www.gofundme.com/f/support-za...
