Danny Deck Construction Inc

Highly recommended. Danny had great recommendations for the deck design and his crew did a great job during construction. Very happy with result and his price was very competitive.

Danny Deck did a fantastic job. When Danny came to look at your yard he had clear ideas and a very good sense of what we we wanted. His estimate was detailed, very competitive, and spot on. His team showed up on time, worked hard, and were very respectful. They extended a retaining wall, built a custom deck around our pool, and built a fence with a custom bench/storage box. We made some changes during the construction and also decided to resurface our pool. He was patient with us and the delays. He also came up with some great ideas for our fence. I highly recommend Danny Deck. You will not be disappointed.

Great! They were able to come the next day and finished in that day too. They sanded the deck, all except the railings which were in normal shape. They had removed all my deck furniture and pots to begin with.after sanding they fixed all the loose boards and rails. Then they completely stained the entire deck, the sides, back, even the railings.. After waiting for the sun to dry the stain, They replaced my furniture and pots, perfectly in the same places they were in to start with.

Danny did my new deck about a year ago and it was wonderful. His guys did a spectacular job on this major project (900 sq ft large deck and two other small ones). Called for re-stain on my deck and he responded in two days and the job was excellent. He is responsive, reasonably priced and stands behind his work.

It went very well. The workers were on time, personable, professional and patient in answering my questions and helping me with decisions on a few things that came up. Above all, they did a great job on the deck! I am extremely pleased with how it came out. I would recommend this company without thinking twice. A terrific experience from start to finish. And after the work was done, Danny called to follow up to make sure I was happy and satisfied with both the work and the deck.

We've contracted Danny Deck to help us with our backyard, which includes building a stucco retaining wall, IPE wood deck, and cement flooring. Because of our bad experiences with contractors while building our house, we've made sure the contracts we have with Danny was written out to a T including the measurements/ price which was $40K. However, when it was done and after we've made final payments, he told us that he actually spent more money to buy more wood and that we had to pay him extra $1700. Our land didn't expand, the lines were drawn on the contract with measurement. Most important of all, is the construction quality of their work. Just 2 months after the construction completed, our stucco wall started to peel off. 3 months later after just one rain, the wall started to have mold stains that do not dry even after an year now. In addition, we had a wall we built in the front cub that has no soil behind it, just a straight wall, it started to crack vertically with 1/4 inch gaps at 2 places!We had Danny and his crew Sabino came out, they told us that cracks are normal. We have had walls built at other parts of our property that have never cracked after 3 years. These 1/4 inch cracks are different from hairline cracks, which means that they haven't done the wall correctly. And they also admit that they didn't put enough water proofing layers on the back of the wall, therefore causing the mold stains to become permanent. We also had them build in benches on the wall, and the metal underneath the benches started to rust leaving stains on the cement flooring just after 4 months! They didn't even have the knowledge to use treated metal for outdoor?! The quality of materials and craftsmenship were cheap and unethical. They told us that they would come back and fix the problems (although they didn't have any concrete solutions to the inferior quality of work they've done), they have never showed up despite our numerous texts and emails. Do not use them for your projects. Irresponsible, unethical, and the worst part is, cheap and unacceptable quality of work!

Nothing. I emailed him with pictures and details of what I was looking for but he did not respond. I followed up with a telephone call and he said he would call me back that same day to look at the property. That was 5 days ago and no response.

Results were far above expectations! We have really enjoyed the deck.

Danny and his team are amazing! The 3 decks look beautiful and this was a very complicated job because of the architecture of the house. There were lots of details to work out and they went above and beyond to make sure the end product was amazing. We're finishing up the project now and moving onto a new project as I write this. Danny Deck is great...if he's available I'd hire him without a second thought!

It went smoothly from start to finish. Ari arrived for the inspection and gave me a thorough explanation of the work that needed to be done. Hannah gave us great support from the office when it came time to schedule the work. On the day project started Ari came out again with the crew to make sure everything was done properly. They did an excellent job and we would recommend Danny Deck to anyone who needs deck work.

Working with Danny Deck Construction was an absolute pleasure and on top of that Danny has a great eye for design and adds good ideas into the mix. We did this project via email and phone calls mainly from New York to LA - so it had added complication which Danny made irrelevant. A fabulous experience all round. It has made me want to build more but I have nothing else to do right now! Thank you.

The project went extremely smooth. Danny was involved at every step, and his crew finished the job on time and in a professional manner. In addition, Danny's design input was extremely valuable throughout the renovation, and he worked collaboratively with our general contractor to make the project a success.

Pretty well. Punctual, and finished timely. It was a big job. Danny was not onsite for construction except to come and check up once a week or if there was a problem. One of his workmen started laying the flooring too high - if they had continued, flooring would have been higher than previous flooring (they were supposed to replace at same level) and would not align with existing concrete entry. Danny nearly convinced me that it would be fine, they would create a small ramp up etc. I insisted on getting what we agreed upon. He was out of town; his excellent manager took charge and tore everything out and they started again. The result was beautiful and just what we had agreed upon. My only caution is: insist on getting what you agreed upon. The result is excellent.

Can't say enough good things about Danny and his team at Danny Deck Construction. I hired them to build a 3,000 square feet Ipe deck for my new home. Danny came out himself to give me a quote. I shopped around a bit, but found that Danny's quote was the most cost efficient. He offered more for the money and sound more reliable and professional than the other competitors. At first we were a bit stressed about that work but thank goodness we were in great hands! The thing I like the most about Danny is how knowledgeable he is. I am a little embarrassed to admit this, but before I met Danny I didn't even knew what Ipe is. Today I can write an article at the "construction gazette" about Ipe decking. I was also impressed that they buy the Ipe decking products from well-managed forests in South America. By doing so they can hand select the finest Ipe and still keep great prices. The crew completed the job in less then 3 weeks which is phenomenal considering the amount of work they had and the high quality they provided.

This review is a long time coming. Every single email is pasted below. There were also phone calls. We could not have been more patient with this guy. Originally, I posted the last few emails to show that we were not responded to. Now I am posted all of them. There were phone calls not responded to. I only use my cell phone so I have record of everything. Danny Shushan <dannydeckinc@hotmail.com> Mar 25 to me Hi Katy, It was nice talking with you earlier. We are scheduled for next week Tuesday between 11-12 . I will call before to confirm . Thank you.

He said you might have the number for a surveyor you've used in the past. And a structural engineer. Can we get those? Thank you so much! Katy Apr 1 to me Hi Kathy, See attach for contact.

I don't recall why they didn't work out. I think they said they couldn't come out here. We found another company to do it for us. We just got that survey done. We'd like to get a recommendation for an architect. Danny, you said you have one you can recommend. We need somebody who can talk to the city for us. Just to remind you, we'd like to do this as a repair and not a rebuild. Our next door neighbor was in town last week and he said there's an easement for the deck crossing the property line. I know we are taking a long time to get around to all this. We are both so busy. But we really want to get this done. And if we feel confident in your architect, we can move forward. Can you remind me how much you said this would cost a square foot. I'm sorry I can't find my notes. Thank you, Katy May 13 to me Hi Kathy, In regards to our engineer / architect unfortunately he is booked for the next few months maybe you can fine someone local to you.In regards to pricing per soft you are looking at around $45 per sqft. Let us know your thoughts. All the best, May 13 to Danny Okay, I'll shop around for an architect and engineer. Thanks for getting back to me so quickly. My hope is that once I find that person then we'll be cooking with fire. :-) Jun 4 to Matthew, Danny Hi, Danny - We are ready to get started on this deck project with you. I would like you to meet my husband and get a more formal contract and all that stuff. Would it be possible for you to come out here again to do that? We do need an architect and engineer, possibly soils report guy. We would like to wait for the guys you know, if that's possible. How many months out are they, do you know? Looking forward to have you do the work. With all your positive reviews we feel we're in great hands. Thank you!

Jun 27 to Danny Hey, Danny - Checking in. i know this is a busy time of year for decks. Let us know where you're at schedule wise. Thank you, Katy (After the above emails we never heard back from Danny. And I called, too. I figured he was in over his head with working on big deck projects and would get back to us when he could. I also emailed him in July for a tiny deck project, never heard back from him then either.) July 13th Hi, Danny -- This platform at the top of a flight of exterior stairs is dry rotted out. Need to get them fixed asap, I have tenants in the unit. Please let me know if you have time, want to do it and roughly what it would cost. Thank you! Katy (NEXT EMAIL HAS PHOTO ATTACHED.) Jul 13 to Danny View from below. Sent from my iPhone Danny never replied.

Danny and Hannah were responsive and helpful throughout the entire process from start to finish. Danny listened to what we wanted, made suggestions, and provided a deck design that was exactly what we were looking for. He was patient while we decided on final deck material and color. Once work started, Danny's crew (lead by Luis) worked efficiently and got the job done in about a week or so, just as he initially said. I was able to reach Danny at any point during the project with no issues, and if there was any concern, it was addressed immediately. We chose Danny after receiving a comparable quote, but his approach to not perform necessary work or be pushy about the project sealed the deal. We now have a solid, beautiful deck that we will use on a daily basis.

Danny responded quickly to my email request to visit my property. He gave a quote for the deck on his first visit to our house. The quote for the fire pit and planter box was given after his second visit to our house when we decided that we wanted these things . Danny was helpful in deciding the scale and location of the fire pit and planter. Most of the work on the deck was performed in the first week of work. ( The start date from the time that we agreed with Danny that we wanted him to do the deck was just a few weeks). The fire pit and planter were completed in the second week. His people extended an irrigation pipe to the planter, and brought a gas line to the fire pit. There was something minor in the deck construction that didn't satisfy me. I brought the issue to Danny, and he made the necessary correction.. I am 100% satisfied with all the work. I am thrilled at how everything looks.

My initial estimate appointment was on a Friday at 11 am. At 11:30 am they called saying they needed to reschedule to the following Friday. The following Friday came and nobody showed up. I called and nobody answered, so I left a message. I have not heard from them since and definitely won't be using them in the future.

Was scheduled for 11 am at 11:45 left message. After 12 pm they called to say it had been for 11 to 12. I remember saying it was for 11 am. But they were running late & they didn't phone service so they couldn't call.

Went really well.

The guy was great and I was really happy with the work. He did it in the most efficient way, was clean and I was happy. He was absolutely fair and reasonable. He had someone on the job who was responsible, who you could talk to, and made sure everyone knew what the project was. They did nice work.

Initially, we had only wanted to replace the top layer of decking with mangaris. However, in the course of tearing up that top layer so that another contractor could repair a storm drain running beneath the deck, we discovered that the deck was not properly draining and the existing substructure was rotten. Danny revised his quote quickly and was very accommodating regarding the schedule, since we needed to have the drainage contractor repair both the storm drain and the deck drain before a new deck could go in. Once the drainage contractor's work was completed, Danny's crew was back and on the job, quickly completing the deck as well as the additional repair and waterproofing work on the storage shed, fencing around the property, the outdoor pergola, and the trash area. In the end, we were very happy with how Danny and Hannah communicated with us regarding important changes as well as the quality of the work. Danny and his crew were very professional and created a fantastic looking deck.

This is an addendum to my last review. The deck was completed today 2/19/2015 and it looks awesome. It is exactly what I had designed and meets my expectations. I noticed a minor oversight and Danny sent the crew back to fix it immediately. Job site is cleaned up, just waiting for the finish to dry before I can partake a beer on the deck. Thank you Danny !

I made the right choice. Danny and his artisan crew delivered a quality product at a more-than-competitive price.

The project went very well. From the quick bid, to Danny's recommendations for enhancements, to the quality construction provided by Luis and the entire construction crew, we are extremely happy.
