Our Purpose

Mission Statement

Who We Are

What We Do

Our premium deck building, restoration, remodeling, and repair services allow homeowners an affordable avenue to maximize their outdoor living space, while receiving excellent communication and customer service from start to finish.

Our Impact

We help clients bring new life to their old decks without breaking the bank. Proper deck care is a major investment, and we believe that customers should be afforded consistent high-quality results and a smooth experience throughout.

Our Journey

Our Story

In 2012 Jonathan started the company because he wanted to help people to fix up their homes.

He had been working for other large companies as an estimator doing home remodeling but there was a problem. What he found is that he could not promise details to a customer and be sure of the results. There seemed to be a disconnect between the sale and the production. Customers were not getting what they were promised!

Because of this, Jonathan decided to start his own company in order to have more control over the service provided.

Knowledge and Perfectionism
An intimate knowledge of wood and a perfectionist's approach to the task at hand, are fundamental requisites in knowing how to care for your wood and your home.
Proper Treatment
We ensure that your wood gets the proper treatment to revitalize it and preserve its natural beauty for many years. We are obsessed with achieving the best possible results for our customers.
Reputation
Our reputation is built on dependability, trust, mutual respect, and integrity.
Attention to Detail
All estimates are performed in person, and with great attention to detail. This way we can apply the same passionate attention to detail for every deck and every customer, from start to finish.
