Royal deck you knocked it out of the park. Great work from start to finish. Dedicated skilled workers who took their time to ensure the deck underneath was reinforced and they took their time to ensure it was all level prior to installing the composite boards. Looking forward to spending time on our new front porch… 😊 Thank you

If I ever want my outside projects done fast and right this is my pick. Top notch. I felt like I owed them more money. What a relief my family can safely enjoy outside now. It did not disturb my kids safety because they were done before my babies got off the bus.

Reliability (24%) — How rarely jobs go badly: share of 1–2★ reviews — 60% the last 24 months (or the 20 newest if fewer), 40% all-time; 0% = 100, 15%+ = 0; the category percentile can only raise it.

Craft & service (penalty, up to −10) — Google review highlights: Quality, Professionalism, Responsiveness, Punctuality — how rarely reviewers flag them as a negative, per review since highlights began; 0% = 100, 5%+ = 0. Subtracted from the score (up to −10), never averaged in — clean highlights are the norm, not a bonus.

Value (14%) — Customers’ own price verdicts (Great / Reasonable vs Overpriced) and Value highlights; 65% absolute (all “reasonable” ≈ 80, “great” = 100), the category percentile can only raise it.

Momentum (penalty, up to −10) — Penalises only a real slide: last-12-month average below lifetime (−0.5★ = 0). Still 4.8★+ over the last year, or steady/improving = 100. Subtracted from the score (up to −10), never averaged in.
