About us

As a result of over 4 decades of deck construction the jobs flow smoothly. My mission is to provide friendly, trustworthy service that people deserve. I get an additional reward at the end of the job when we're shaking hands and I know my customers are really happy with my workmanship, I can see it in their faces. I've also made friends. That good feeling we're left with is about more than just the project, it is what makes the job so worthwhile. I have recently moved to Port Charlotte FL. and will continue to apply my craft here and in surrounding areas.

It worked out excellent. They are very professional, knew what they were doing and their bid was lower than most. I will highly recommend them.

Jeff was extremely professional.  He was very easy to communicate with, he answered his phone and emails quickly.  He emailed us a written estimate with a diagram right away.  High quality craftsmanship.  I highly recommend Jeff. A+++

Went well, good price, all completed as asked in a timely manner. Called him back to replace a broken trim piece that we broke over the winter with a shovel, and he took care of it with no problem.

I wanted to build a new deck, but decided I needed help getting it framed correctly.  I called Jeff for help.  He came over, listened to what I wanted to create, offered some suggestions that I hadn't thought of, took measurements, gave me a list of materials that I would need to order and showed me where to install the new footings.  Once the footings were in the ground and the material was delivered, Jeff came back and went to work.  He started in the morning and by mid-afternoon, my new deck was framed out.  I was blown away.  If you want someone to build  your deck who knows what he's doing, Jeff is the only person to call.  Thanks Jeff!

Fantastic!  After reading so many positive reviews about "the Deck Man" we were looking forward to meeting him.  Jeff visited the site when we were off cape.  He provided a written estimate and proposed drawing and sent it to us via email.  He agreed to meet in person to review the estimate and answer any questions.  When we met in person, we agreed to some modifications to the plan and asked Jeff if he could complete the work before the end of June, 2013.  Jeff promptly got back to us and confirmed he could complete the work by our desired deadline.  Once started, it took about one-week to build and everything went according to plan -- including completion by our deadline.  
Jeff has a very friendly, easy going style.   Where we live off cape, he sent us emails with pictures each day showing us the progress of the deck.  He was a pleasure to work with.  We are entirely pleased with the project and have no reservations recommending "the Deck Man" for future work.

Responsive, punctual, reasonable.  Jeff came and gave an estimate that was far more reasonable than other quotes I received.  He did not try to sell me on unnecessary structural support improvements.  He did an outstanding job, cleaning up as he went.  He goes above and beyond, replacing an step down to the beach that he saw needing replacement.  This was a big job as the deck is about 600 sq ft over the water.  He used stainless steel cabling and railing and post wraps providing suggestions to minimize cost and maintenance.  We also added to his scope when he suggested improvements for an adjacent patio railing.  The overall look and workmanship was great.  He sent pictures everyday so I could see the progress since I was not on site.  He's also just a pleasure to work with.
I am using Jeff for another deck this fall.

He was fabulous.  He was extremely responsive, very detailed, and told us exactly what to expect.  He told us ahead of time that there might be some areas that would need some repairs and what to expect around that.  He finished the deck at the time he said he would and it came out really nice.  His pricing was great as well.  He was at least $3000 less.

He did everything on my list-they alllooked great when he was done and even with one thing that was not how I liked it he returned and redid. I ahve referred him to several of my friends. They love his work ethic as much as I did.

After receiving three bids we selected Jeff to do the job. He arrived with the material pre-cut and ready to assemble. It took ~2.5 days to complete the job and it was done exactly as we wanted it. Eight years later it still looks good. I would recommend him.

Terrific from start to finish. He was delayed to our first appointment but persisted in contacting me to notify of his delay. His work was beautiful all done in our absence. His prices were very fair, his workmanship superb. I would recommend Jeff highly. I intend on using his services over the winter on some other projects

Considered both a deck extension and the creation of a stone patio. The deck was surprisingly affordable relative to the patio option. Deck man was prompt in providing the quote and completing the work. We are very satisfied with the results.

It took a few days to get an estimate from the Deck Man. He provided picture examples of his work and a list of references. I called two of the names and they could not be happier. One person had used him eight times and was using him at that time. I accepted the estimate and paid 10% down. He delayed starting the project by about 5 days due to rain holding up his then current project. He answered e-mails and telephone calls about the starting date delays promptly. I met him at this second house when he started the project and gave him 40% of the estimate. I went home to wait for for him to finish. He sent photographs of his progress via e-mail. I asked about replacing a window while he was there. He looked at it, got price and we agreed to the additional work. I met him at the house on his last day and paid for the rest of the job. The Deck Man, Jeff Hennemuth, was very pleassant to talk with about the project and about what was happening locally while I was away from the house. He did everything that I expected for the project. He cleaned up the area well afterwards. There was a lot of small wood pieces from the deteriorated sections of the old deck. The quality of the work is way above average. I would hire him again without reservation.

We are extremely pleased with the additions to our deck and garden. Jeff is very good at problem-solving and can give creative design suggestions. In addition, he is easy to work with and very professional (prompt, completes work in a timely fashion.) His prices are fair and his work is excellent..
