"We worked with Ali (sales manager) and Tony (project manager), who took the time to design a project that made sense for our property and our budget, made a number of suggestions and recommendations and were never pushy or tried to "sell" us on something. The crew really went above and beyond to provide top quality workmanship and overall we were in very good hands. Highly recommended!"

"He is well experienced and good at what he does. I feel as though he is excellent. He came to the house and examined everything and gave me an explanation of what he was going to do and how the job was done and who does good work and who does bad work. His estimate was for $3,000. He seems like a very professional and knowledgeable person, and I assume that he is, but his price was just too expensive for me. It was a good experience. It went good. Everything went perfect. He was very professional and I have no complaints about him or anything, and it was just the price. He was on time. I would use him in the future, considering his prices."

"They had to come back and redo it. The initial person who came out was not very professional. She was the salesperson as well as the provider and was always in a hurry to get somewhere and was kind of condescending. They were not very good communicators."

"waiting for special order deck boards, and then Most of the job was fine, some of the work was ok, with some craftmanship details (asthetics) being good but not great.  The job took a lot longer that anticipated with 2 different 2-4 week delays between workers showing up.  (Partly waiting for special order deck boards, then some rain on the days they would have been back working).  All in all a 1 week project ended up taking 8 weeks. (I think they also got busy and sort of forgot about us).
The replaced doors and frames are really good with nice work being done, but the deck had some design and asthetic choices that I found a bit odd and left the job looking ok but not great once you start looking at the details.

Deck Maintenance questions, answered by experts

Always sand a deck before repainting so the wood is smooth and ready for paint. While you do not need to fully remove paint before repainting, sanding helps remove any areas with weather and sun damage. Sanding also helps remove chipped or flaking paint and opens the wood pores to improve paint adhesion.

Building a deck is often worth the investment, not only because it provides more utility to your yard and gives you more space to entertain but also because decks tend to add value to your home. Keep in mind that second-story decks often require concrete footings, which means they will bump up your property taxes, while decks built on the first story generally don’t require a permanent foundation and won’t affect your taxes. Even with the tax increase, decks are usually a good investment in the long run.

Whether you need a permit depends on the deck design and local regulations. Most areas mandate a building permit if the deck is over a specific height or if it's attached to a pre-existing structure. Shorter, freestanding decks may not require a permit, but you should check with local zoning ordinances and your homeowners association for specifics.

No, it isn’t necessary to skirt a deck, but investing in the cost to install deck skirting can bring more value to your home. Not only does deck skirting make the deck look more complete, but it can also turn otherwise unused space beneath the deck into useful storage space.

Building a deck without a permit could lead to fines for both the homeowner and the contractor. The exact penalties will depend on your state and municipal building laws. You might also be required to remove the deck and apply for a permit before you can build another. While it might be tempting to skip the permit to save a few bucks, it’ll cost you much more if you’re caught.
