It’s heartbreaking to see how social media highlights bad contractor experiences, because the truth is that the vast majority of local contractors are dedicated, hard-working entrepreneurs. We know how hard you work to save money and invest in your home, and we respect that deeply.
Unfortunate stories usually come down to two major fears:
The Fear of Being "Ghosted": Homeowners worry a contractor will take a deposit and disappear without updates. Our Reality: Communication is our top priority. You will have a single point of contact who keeps you informed every step of the way no silence, no guessing.
The Fear of Hidden Costs: Homeowners fear low quotes that lead to constant, expensive "surprise" change orders. Our Reality: We provide honest, detailed estimates upfront. We respect your budget, and we don't play pricing games.
Our Mission is Community. We believe in building a united community of honest builders. We celebrate great craftsmanship whether it’s ours or another reputable contractor's and we stand firmly against poor, unskilled work that puts homeowners at risk. By supporting ethical contractors and holding ourselves to the highest standards, we leave no room for bad actors to take advantage of people.
We know how hard it is to find great customers who value quality work, and we value your trust above everything else. Whether we build your deck directly or work alongside our trusted contractor friends to bring your vision to life, honesty, craftsmanship, and respect are our non-negotiable priorities.

We specialize in both high-quality wood and low maintenance composite decking, and we can help you choose the best fit for your budget and lifestyle.
-
It depends entirely on size and materials. A standard treated or cedar wood deck typically runs between $8,000 and $25,000, while premium, low-maintenance composite decks generally range from $15,000 to $80,000+. We provide a detailed, exact quote upfront.
-
Wood is cheaper upfront but requires power washing, staining, and sealing every few years to prevent rotting. Premium composite (like Azek) costs more initially but lasts 25+ years, never splinters, and requires zero maintenance beyond a quick soap and water wash.
-
Once we break ground, construction typically takes 1 to 3 weeks, depending on weather and size and complexity of your design.
Regarding your start date, we build on a first-come, first served basis determined by the order in which contracts are signed. After your city permit is officially approved, we will place your project onto our active production schedule and give you a realistic start date. We keep you informed every step of the way so you know exactly when our crew will arrive, and we maintain a clean, organized job site from day one until the final inspection.
-
While custom decks are our specialty, we are a full-service outdoor construction company. We also design and build pergolas, 3-season porches, and complete structural deck repairs including replacing rotted framing and full re-decking using premium materials.
If you have a different project in mind, just ask us! If it involves outdoor construction, there is a very good chance we can provide exactly what you need.
-
Absolutely! If your underlying post-and-joist framing is structurally sound, redecking is one of the smartest, most cost effective ways to get a brand new look for a fraction of the cost of a full rebuild. We inspect your existing framing, make any necessary minor repairs or joist reinforcements, and install high performance composite or fresh wood deck boards right on top.
-
It all comes down to the sub-frame. If the framing underneath is free from rot, soft spots, and structural sag, a simple repair or redeck is all you need. During our evaluation, we inspect joist spacing, ledger board connection, and timber integrity to give you an honest recommendation on whether saving the original frame makes financial sense.
-
Older decks were often built on undersized shallow footings, deck blocks, or even simple patio pavers. Over time, ground freeze thaw cycles cause these decks to shift, sink, or pull away from the house. Adding proper frost depth concrete footings, diamond pier or helical piers stabilizes the deck permanently, prevents structural sag, and allows you to safely support heavier materials like composite decking, picture framing, or a new pergolas and railing system.
-
Yes! We can safely shore up and temporarily support your existing deck structure while digging and pouring new, code compliant footings underneath. This gives your current structure a bulletproof foundation without forcing you into a full demolition.
-
Building codes evolve for one main reason: safety. Older decks frequently relied on nails instead of modern structural screws, missing ledger flashing, or incorrect joist hangers, which are the primary causes of sudden deck failures. Bringing your deck up to current code protects your family and guests, ensures your home insurance remains valid, and prevents costly hold-ups if you ever decide to sell your home.
-
Because no one wants to lose half their summer waiting in a contractor backlog! By starting in the fall, we can pour your concrete footings before the ground freezes solid and handle demolition while your yard isn't in high use. When spring hits and your neighbors are just starting to call around for quotes, your brand new or upgraded deck is 100% finished and ready for your first summer BBQ.
-
It’s all about smart scheduling! We get ahead of the frost by digging and pouring your structural footings in the late fall. Once the footings are set, frame installation, composite decking, and railing builds can easily continue through the winter months. Framing in cold weather actually prevents lumber from warping in humid summer heat, giving you a tighter, higher-quality build.
-
Waiting until spring usually means waiting in line. Spring is the busiest time of year, and permits, material lead times, and build schedules can quickly push your completion date into mid summer or fall. Locking in your spot on our Late Fall / Winter Build Calendar secures your project pricing, beats spring material cost increases, and guarantees your deck is ready the very first warm day of the season.
-
Yes, and it’s one of our greatest strengths! While we handle all deck framing, custom carpentry, and structural builds in house, we also build complete outdoor living spaces that require specialized licensed trades like custom roofing, electrical for low voltage lighting and heaters, and matching home siding.
To deliver total versatility without sacrificing quality, we work exclusively with a very select, close network of trusted professional tradesmen and long time industry friends. We don't just hire random crews off a bid list every professional on our job site is someone we know, trust, and hold to our highest standards.
The best part? You never have to manage them or play phone tag. You will only ever deal with one dedicated personal contact your project lead who manages every detail, handles quality control, and keeps your project running smoothly from start to finish.
-
Absolutely not. We operate on a strict foundation of loyalty, ethics, and mutual respect. We believe in building a strong contractor community that empowers our industry friends.
When we work on a partner’s job site, we are entirely committed to fulfilling the exact scope of our contract and representing your brand with total professionalism.
