Frank Cinque and his team (Nate & Oryan as our on station Project Mgr & lead carpenter) installed a beautiful new 15'x15' porch (14' high) aligned with a 15'x19' deck all neatly tied to our existing roof/siding and right off of our sliding glass doors in the back of our home. It took their team exactly 3-weeks from start-to-finish and this included the necessary inspections. Frank is also recognized for his responsiveness and wins the excellence award for customer service!
This is why his management of their Deck/Porch division is "killing it!" My wife and I can't say enough about the level of detail and the workmanship and professionalism of Frank's team. "Frankly" no one better in the region and I interviewed several companies! Thank you Advance Inc!

Great experience from start to finish. Honest, straightforward estimate without all of the sales pressure. Quick progress to the installation day and the team was prompt, clean and very friendly. They worked extra hard to make sure the landscaping was not damaged as they removed the old roofing materials. Cleaned and swept each day with a magnet. Our house is over 100 years old and had some original cedar, which they carefully removed and repaired where needed. Dumpster was promptly removed, and there was no debris when the job was complete. New roof looks perfect, was exactly what we asked for and there were no issues at all. Honest, clean, careful and communicative. Would highly recommend.

From start to finish on our 6 double hung and one bow window project with Advance went seamlessly. All team members were professional and knowledgeable. The 600 series Okna windows are of exceptional quality. The install team of Tom and Mathew did a great job. Within two days, the only way you can tell someone was here, were the beautiful new windows.

Advance rebuilt my deck, tore it down started from the ground up, did a great job, very pleased. They just installed a pre-hung entry door and storm door. The storm door was sticking on one side, made a call to advance someone was out the next took care of the problem, everything is working as designed. Overall I've found this company to thorough, professional and timely. Highly recommend.

From start to finish, Advance Inc. is a 10 out of 10 contractor. Starting with our Consultant, Rob, and finishing with our Construction Experts, Dave and Bill, everything was exceptional. Rob routinely kept in contact with us prior to construction and quickly answered all of our questions. Dave and Bill consulted us on a design change; we took their expert advice and everything came out beautifully.
We are very thankful they thought to ask the question because they really know what looks best! Clean-up was awesome! Advance is now our go-to contractor! If you want a contractor that talks the talk and delivers 100%, and at a very reasonable price, call them. You will be extremely happy with the results!

Advance just replaced our old falling apart deck with the Trex system, and it looks GREAT! The head of the team that replaced our deck was very pleasant, neat, and did an excellent job on the deck. If we had questions, he was always more than willing to answer them. Great team, fabulous deck - great job - would recommend them to anyone that needed a new deck. And it only took them 3 days to finish even with the rainy weather. Finished earlier than expected, and very sturdy.
