Our Story

How we ended up doing this

We build and repair decks around Anaheim, working on everything from a simple redwood platform to a full outdoor kitchen deck. Most of us started in framing or general carpentry and drifted into decks because it's the one part of house-building you actually get to sit on when it's done.

If you're here, your deck probably has a rotten joist near the house, a railing that's started to lean, or boards that cupped after a few summers of sun. We pull the decking back, check the ledger flashing and joists for rot, and replace what's compromised instead of just screwing new boards over a bad frame.

Why Choose Us

What you get when you hire us

None of this is complicated. It is mostly just doing what we said we would do.

Licensed & Insured

We carry the license and insurance California requires for deck construction work. Ask for certificates before we start, we'll hand them over without hesitation.

Written Quotes

Every quote lists the lumber grade, hardware and hours we're pricing, not just a lump sum. That way you know what you're paying for before we touch the yard.

Permits & Code

Anaheim requires a permit for most decks over 30 inches off grade, and we pull it rather than skip it. Passing inspection on the framing and railing height means no surprises when you sell the house later.

Own Crew

The people framing your deck are the same people who finish it, so nothing gets lost between trades. That consistency shows up in how square the railing posts end up.

Material Options

Some homeowners want the look of real wood and are fine restaining every couple years, others want composite and never want to touch it again. We'll tell you honestly which one fits your budget and how much shade your yard gets.

On Time

Weather in Anaheim rarely delays a deck job, so our schedules tend to hold. If something does push the timeline, we call you before you notice.

Common Questions

Things people ask us

Questions about who's doing the work and how we operate.

How long has deck building been the focus of the work?
Deck construction and repair has been the focus for years, built on a background in general carpentry and framing. That framing background matters most in the parts of a deck nobody sees once it's finished, the joists and footings underneath.
Is deck work done by an in-house crew or subcontractors?
The same crew handles a deck from demolition through final staining, rather than handing pieces off to different subcontractors. That keeps framing decisions and finish work consistent from one end of the job to the other.
Can past deck projects be seen before hiring?
Photos of completed deck projects are available on request, showing framing before the decking goes down as well as the finished result. Seeing the framing stage matters because that's the part that determines how the deck holds up, not just how it looks.
Why hire a smaller deck builder instead of a large remodeling company?
A smaller deck builder means the person who quotes the job is usually the same person on site running it, so nothing gets lost in translation. Larger remodeling companies often subcontract deck work out entirely, which adds a layer between the homeowner and whoever's actually building it.
Where is the deck building business based?
Work is based out of Anaheim, California, and jobs are taken throughout the surrounding Orange County area. Being local also means a faster response if something needs a follow-up visit after the job is done.
How far in advance do deck projects need to be booked?
Booking a few weeks out is typical, longer during spring and early summer when deck requests pick up. Repair calls usually get worked in faster than new builds since they're shorter jobs.
Is the site cleaned up after a deck is finished?
Old decking, cut-offs, packaging and hardware scraps get hauled off at the end of the job, not left for the homeowner to deal with. The yard gets swept for stray screws and nails before the crew leaves, since those are what end up in tires and bare feet.
What happens if something gets damaged on the property during deck work?
General liability insurance covers accidental damage to the property during a deck project, from a fence panel to a sprinkler line. Any incident gets reported and addressed directly rather than left for the homeowner to chase down.
Will a deck another contractor started or walked away from be finished?
Taking over a partially built or abandoned deck project happens fairly often. The existing framing gets inspected first to confirm it meets code and span requirements before any new decking goes on top of it.
How can a homeowner tell if deck work is being done correctly?
Joist spacing, hardware type and ledger flashing are the three things worth asking about, since they fail first if done wrong and are hardest to check once decking covers them. A contractor willing to show that work before it's covered up is a good sign, and photos during construction should be offered without having to ask.
