Archadeck of Fort Wayne

At our lake property, we encountered many zoning difficulties. Baron Biedenweg explored every option to build the deck we desired. We love the deck so much that we had him rebuild our old wooden deck at home with a superior Timber Tech product. I highly recommend this company because they deliver a quality product and exceptional workmanship.

Builder supplied detailed drawings, steps to be taken, full list of supplies needed to complete the project, four-part payment schedule, pulled permits and oversaw three required inspections, smooth coordination of a variety of craftspeople, prompt and courteous professional communication throughout and follow-through that still continues today. Work and materials are insured and warrantied. The outcome is serviceable and stunning and life-enhancing for years to come.

Archadeck was very professional. They determined the problem and decided we needed to tear down the entire deck, rebuild the frame and steps, and then redeck it. We chose Azek composite decking and a TAM-RAIL railing system. We ha d lots of rain which delayed the start of the project but it only took 3 days to complete it once the weather cooperated. While this was an expensive project, we know it will last.

Baron Biedenweg of Archadeck gave me a quote to fix a deck that lost support in one corner due to the original poor mounting to a concrete slab. He had a good understanding of the problem and provided various options to fix it and enhance the deck appearance. His details were better than we had received from other bidders.  We decided to repair the concrete mounting
and redo the complete deck and use the existing structure.  We ran into many issues using our existing structure,
such as the angles used were not standard as well as some other anomalies. This resulted in some redoes of part of the deck and stairs. Baron took care of all the anomalies that were a result of using the previous structure. Baron and his
crew were very responsive to every issue and took wherever action to make the deck conform to the structure and look good. He sent emails to keep me informed of scheduling needed to correct any issues. I am very pleased with the overall results.  The aluminum railing was one of his options we selected and it was a very nice enhancement to our previous wooden railing. I think Baron?s costs were higher than estimated due to working with our existing non-standard structure, but he completed the job as bid.  Overall Baron and his crew were very professional and responsive.  I would recommend them for any type of deck work.   Baron was very patient in responding to any concern or change I had.  It has been a pleasure working with Baron and his crew and we would not hesitate in using them on other projects. We are very satisfied with the quality and look of the finished deck.

It went well! Very professional! Beautiful workmanship.

Working with Baron seems like it will be very easy and professional. Archadeck will begin construction early October. I will leave a more detailed review when completed.
As expected, working with Archadeck was a very pleasant experience. We are very pleased with our new screen room. What a wonderful addition to our home!

Baron had a good understanding of the low maintenance we wanted to accomplish and was very creative in his design plan.  His emails and detailed invoices were better than we had received from other bidders.  He kept us informed of any changes or setbacks.  We are very satisfied with the quality and look of the finished work performed by his Amish crew.  We observed how patient Baron was with us as we had changed our minds on the choice of railing after the project started.  What sets Archadeck apart is their professionalism in handling changes along the way and more importantly completing the punch list to our satisfaction.  It has been a joy working with Baron and his crew and we would not hesitate in using them on other projects.

We were looking for a deck with low maintenance and the materials seemed to be great. The installation by Archadeck of Fort Wayne went well. The Supervisor checked with us frequently to ensure the people doing the work were doing it to our satisfaction. He came out personally and inspected it. When we found something we weren't totally pleased with, he got it corrected immediately and agreed that they should have got it the first time. We were overall very pleased and liked the look of the deck and the service couldn't have been better. They tidied up after themselves, everything was removed.

Working with Baron Biedenweg of Archadeck of Fort Wayne was a pleasurable experience. Within a day of submitting an online request to be contacted by someone from Archadeck, Baron contacted me and was the utmost professional from the start. We agreed on a date for him to come take a look at our back yard and to see what we wanted to replace and hear our ideas for what we wanted in our new deck. Baron arrived on time and after we talked about ideas for design, material options, convenience options, etc. for the deck, he took measurements and told me he would get back with me in a few days with a design. He also left us some literature and brochures to look over. As promised, he got back with us with three different designs for our deck. None of the three designs hit the mark perfectly, but were very close in what we were thinking. I would definitely say he was on the same page as we were and it was obvious he listened to us very intently during our first meeting. After a few minor modifications to the design and some great suggestions from Baron on design questions I had, he presented us with the design we really loved. One of my "must-haves" was to have a maintenance free deck, and being that our deck would be on the west side of the house in the full sun, the heat of the decking was a concern of mine. Baron listened to all of our concerns, wants, and wishes and came up with a beautiful design to meet our needs. We ended up going with the Timbertech composite materials. A maintenance free decking material that Baron assured us wouldn't get too hot on our feet in the blazing sun (more on that later). He even made some design suggestions that saved us money in the long run.
The quote for the design came in very close to our budget and some last minute additions on our end put us a little over what we wanted to spend, but we felt comfortable spending the extra on some additional accessory type-changes. Baron brought out board and railing samples for us to choose our colors. That was a big help to see the actual product up against our house. After signing the contract, Baron gave us an approximate start date and said he would get us a more concrete date a few weeks out and he did. They ended up starting one day later than originally planned, but no complaints on that. They started by removing the old deck, which I had considered doing myself at one point, but am VERY glad I let his crew do this. They were very efficient and fast in removing the old wood deck. The estimated time to complete our deck was three days. The crew were all very nice and professional, it was very apparent in watching them work that they knew what they were doing. At the end of each day, they cleaned up the job site and took care of all the scrap material from that day's work.
At the end of the third day, they had completed the deck and railing and it looked absolutely fantastic. The quality of work was stellar and it turned out more beautiful than we imagined it would. And the hot deck boards under our feet from the hot westerly sun? - Not even an issue, not even in the later afternoon. Surprisingly, but just as Baron told us, the deck boards did not get too hot to walk on, even in the 100 degree weather we had. We even chose one of the darkest decking colors offered. You couldn't walk on our old wood deck barefoot, but this we can! We have had so many great compliments from family, friends, and neighbors. The quality of customer service, workmanship, and materials were all top notch. We couldn't be happier. After all the work was completed, Baron went through all the warranty information, how to care for our new deck, and made sure there weren't any lingering questions or concerns.
Archadeck made all the necessary arrangements for permits, dumpster, ground marking, etc. All we had to do was sign the contract and pay the bill. It was an extremely smooth process and we would definitely use Archadeck of Fort Wayne again!

They did a really good job overall. It was excellent. The owner took the time to meet with us to find a design concept and find something to fit our budget. They cleaned up after themselves each day to minimize the mess.
