Excellent communication by Sloane throughout the project Very satisfied with the process from start to finish I would recommend Austin Deck Company read more

I want to start by saying how incredibly satisfied I am with the work Walker and his team at Austin Deck Company did for me this spring. They built a sizable deck--around 800 square feet--with multiple levels using high-end materials from Trex. I had been preparing for this project for a while, speaking with several contractors, and what really stood out to me about Walker was his communication. He was quick to respond, clear, and always provided updated visuals whenever we made changes to the design. His transparency and follow-through on every promise were key reasons I chose Austin Deck Company. One of the more complex aspects of the project involved resolving issues caused by a different vendor whom I bought a pergola from. Walker and his team went above and beyond to help me navigate and fix those problems. Everyone on the crew I interacted with -- Paco, Rick, and others -- was professional, friendly, and easy to communicate with. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Austin Deck Company to my friends, and I'll definitely be reaching out to them again for any future deck projects. You guys rock! read more

Awesome job by Sloan + crew. We heard about them b/c they'd done Central Market's deck. We thought there's no way we'd be able to afford them b/c they're probably premium priced. We got a few other bids and their price was right there with the rest of 'em. So went with Austin Deck Company ... project was excellently managed, communication was great, and the final product is awesome. read more

From the design to the construction, Austin Deck Company was the best! The staff provide excellent customer service and care deeply about their customers and their happiness with the project. The quality of my deck is amazing - I could not have asked for a better result. Now I am enjoying my deck on these cooler days and could not be happier. Thank you! read more

I highly, highly recommend this company! I was fortunate to work with Walker after firing the first contractor. Walker was prompt, knowledgeable, honest, professional and polite. He had a drawing of the project to me in a couple of days. The pricing was very fair and if there was any issue a text to Walker was all it took to have it taken care of. The work was done very quickly. The men even worked one day in a cold rain to have it finished for Christmas. I cannot tell you how happy I am with the finished project. The railing and skirting are so beautiful! My neighbors all compliment it. Thank you Austin Deck Company for a job well done! read more

I have now used Austin Deck Company twice for deck work. First time nine years ago, and again this year. Both times outstanding work. Timely, meticulous detail, great cleanup, wonderful communication. Working through the design process to connect the original deck to the new deck was seamless. And the iron railing adds a distinguished touch. You can always count on a finished project that will delight you every time you see it! Completely recommend this company for any of your deck or iron railing needs. read more

They did a great job building an Ipe wood deck in my backyard. The quality of the work was great.

Austin Deck Company just replaced our two-level deck and it's beautifully done. Sloan provided various options in his quote and answered our questions patiently. He made himself available throughout the process, and made sure that we were posted on the progress. Edgar proved to be an outstanding leader of the team, and we were impressed by his work ethic and attention to the details. He took time to make sure things were done right. We are truly satisfied with the results and would recommend them to all. read more

Courteous service, excellent response time, appears to be excellent workmanship, as well. A real pleasure to work with Abe and his crew. Highly recommend based on service, doing what they say they will do, and addressing any problems immediately, although there weren't any problems that I would consider significant during the pre-installation phase or installation phase of the project. read more

Abe and his team have been fantastic to work with from start to finish. They replaced our entire deck in less than 2 days and it is a beautiful replacement of what we had. read more

Austin Deck Company is hands down the best contractor we have used in almost three decades of home ownership. They are a pleasure to work with, do high quality builds, and operate with unparalleled professional integrity. I'd give them 100 stars if I could! Do yourself a favor and hire Abe and his team to build or repair your deck. read more

Abe Oeltjen and Austin Deck Company added a 16x20 2nd tier extension to our current deck. The goal was to create an "Oasis" feel entertainment area. The outcome - a beautiful deck overlooking the hill country landscape with amazing night time views of the stars. We could not be happier. The crew was efficient, polite and completely recreated the style of the existing deck so it does not look like an add on. We used Austin Deck with a former home deck and knew they were an exceptional company. We highly recommend them. Debbie H. read more

Abe had his work cut out for him when he tackled our deck replacement. Ours was a project had been rejected as "too complicated" by another local deck company. The project had many steps to coordinate: - Obtain permit. - Removal of the existing deck surface, including 3 layers of indoor/outdoor carpeting, along with existing railing. - Replacement of the deck underlayment and waterproofing of same. - Demo and removal of the existing metal and concrete stairs. - Addition of the new Ipe deck material and cedar facia. - Rebuilding the stairs and stair landing. - Addition of new metal and glass railings. After overcoming the usual unknowns on a project such as ours, Abe/Austin Deck Company pulled all the parts together and delivered a beautiful finished product. We've received lots of compliments on the new deck and highly recommend Austin Deck Company. read more

My project was a small deck in my side yard and after getting bids from four different contractors, I found Austin Deck Company to be the best combination of price, quality, timing, and company values. I'd definitely work with them again if given the chance! read more

Abe and his crew replaced a failing substandard exterior stairway to an apartment we have on top of our detached garage and added a small deck. This was more of a "utility" project to enhance existing functionality than an "architectural" project to beautify a home. This drove the practical design and budget. Abe was on time for the initial consultation, on time with bids and up front about design considerations and costs. He was also transparent about some minor glitches along the way. None of this was typical for other contractors I engaged. Most other contractors were obviously in over their heads. A few applied costs more typical of a commercial project - I needed a Honda and they were trying to sell me a BMW. I was seriously ill during the entire duration of the project and was not able to monitor progress, so I trusted Abe to deliver as promised and he and his crew exceeded my expectations. His crew are full time craftsmen, not contractors hired job to job and it shows. I was not disappointed, they did a great job and left the work area cleaner than they found it. I cannot recommend this Veteran-owned business highly enough. read more

We hired Austin Deck Company to replace our existing deck earlier this year and we couldn't be happier with their work. Our original deck was 20-year-old standard yellow pine and the previous owners apparently did nothing at all to preserve it. It was also split into two height levels which reduced the usable area of the surface, so we wanted the new one to all be one height. I was left with a good impression after my first meeting with Abe. Out of the four contractors we got quotes from he was the most professional and just seemed to have a lot of experience to draw from. He gave me some suggestions about the design and fleshed those thoughts out later through the design drawings he sent me. Kris, the crew lead, helpfully answered the questions I had once construction began. He and the rest of the crew were all very polite and they just did an amazing job. I planned to install deck lighting myself afterward so I asked them to pre-drill small holes in the posts during construction (to run wiring through) and they took care of that no problem. It's been about six months now and we're still completely happy with our new deck. We love the natural color variations of the western red cedar and everything feels wonderfully sturdy and secure. It's rare that I am left 100% satisfied with a company, so I wanted to make sure and leave a review for these guys. We will gladly use them for any carpentry projects like this in the future. read more

Two words: exceptional experience! We went into this process very reserved, since we were almost scammed out of our money by another company. Honestly, this was not necessary when dealing with Abe Oeltjen and Austin Deck Company. We called them him out on Monday evening, for a quote. We received an excellent quote for our (~20' * 30') deck. Tuesday, we decided to go ahead and move forward, signed the contract, and asked when they could start (expecting a bit of a wait). They were waiting outside our house the next day at 07:00. Chris and his crew were 100% professional the whole time they were here. They even took a moment to fix a fence post for our neighbor, at no charge. They were fully open and honest about anything we asked, and always checked before doing anything that we might have an opinion about. They completed our giant deck in two days (writing this on Thursday). They definitely overbuilt the frame, so it is not going anywhere. I will recommend them to anyone who ever wants any deck work done. Great price, great craftsmanship, great people. 100% great experience. read more

I cannot say enough about Austin Deck Company! We recieved a few proposals from a few other contractors and no one else compared to the level of professionalism, attention to detail, and quality that Walker and Austin Deck Company promised. From start to finish Austin Deck and their installers were the gold standard of craftsmanship and professionalism and were attentive to and followed through on every desire that we had in our deck replacement! I would 100% refer and use Austin Deck Company again and again!!! read more

Austin Deck Company is fantastic! We had to rip out our existing Azek deck due to the replacement of cast iron pipes. From my first inquiry until the completion of the deck, the team was amazing - responsive, communicative, honest, and meticulous. Sloan's excellent project management skills and superior client service combined with Victor's craftsmanship and attention to detail resulted in a gorgeous deck. I would highly recommend Austin Deck to anyone looking for repair, replacement or a completely new deck. They are amazing! read more

Austin Deck was recommended to us by our pool builder for the decking around the pool. This was being done at the same time of building the house so I had to deal with many sun-contractors for over a year. We are coming up on finally being complete on the house after 14 months. Abe, the owner of Austin Deck, was on hand for every process .... Looking at job site and doing the bid, giving feedback on the best material to use for our wants and needs, being very patient with delays from pool builder and house builder that caused his installation to be postpone, lending a solution during installation to add steps that we originally didn't consider needin.g. The list goes on and on! He is calm spoken, kind and caring about his customers. His crew was just as professional as he is. They got the job done within the timeframe they committed to and showed up on time each morning. and the end job is superb!! The five star rating is absolutely deserved! read more

I always like to wait awhile before reviewing stuff, especially contractors, because lets face it: Hiring folks is never a perfect process. Even the best of experiences typically has a point or two where you second guess whether that was the right outcome or not. That being said, its now been about a month and I think its fair to give them an honest assessment. The thing about Austin Deck Company is that they will do a good job for you, but they will not do a great job. However, they will charge you the great price. We hired ADC to remove our aging deck/frame and replace it with a brand new frame and composite deck. The scope of the project was a complete 'scorched earth' reboot: Remove everything to the ground and build it from scratch. I think this is important to call out, because this really gave ADC complete control of the entire process with no challenges like having to bend to this or that. The space was theirs and they owned it. Despite being contracted to remove all elements of the old deck, ADC chose to only dig out about half of the old concrete footings that the old deck had. Instead they just sawed the supports off at ground level and tried to cover some of them with dirt. The workman did not remove some of the other physical materials from the old deck (garden stones, etc) but I went ahead and did this myself as I wanted to move the project, which had legitimately stalled due to rain, ahead The new frame went in very nice - I give full credit that this was a success and I am still very happy with that element. And the decking itself went on very well, although I am afraid that is about all that did go as expected. Despite a clearly defined conversation and subsequent email, the ADC project coordinator took it upon himself to customize the deck by cutting a hole in it, even though we had discussed the option and he had been told in writing not to. That decision nearly put the project in serious jeopardy. A few days later the deck was installed and the posts and railing up, but I was very disappointed at the lack of detail work that remained undone. For example, the railing made sinking the mounting screws difficult, which I can understand, but that left a good quarter inch of the screws sticking out at a 30 degree off angle. When I raised the issue, the ADC coordinator shrugged it off with a comment about how hard it is to get them all the way in. Not exactly my problem as a customer in my opinion. Also, the railings were not exactly even level. That seems like something that could have been avoided by simply measuring from the deck up and marking the target spots with a pencil. Another key misstep was the way the workers tried to discard their leftover cement through our fence to the green belt behind our house, coating the bottom railing with cement. Eventually it was all done and I have been using the deck for about a month now and it feels very solid. The edges are clean and straight, and my family is looking forward to using it for years to come. However, I expect we'll still be picking up discarded screws from the workers out of the grass that whole time. We've lost track of how many dozens of screws were littered about the job site, and my favorite, the discarded razor sharp metal pieces trimmed from the railing scattered in the grass around my infant son's sandbox. Very disappointed about that. I am glad I had the work done, but if I give it too much thought I cannot shake the feeling that I did not get the top notch quality I was actually charged for. Although I have no plans to ever redo the deck, if I did, I would likely go with a different vendor next time. read more

After soliciting a proposal from another company, my husband and I decided on having Austin Deck Company do the deck replacement behind our home, mostly because of the very professional and friendly initial visit we had with Walker. Walker's work crew was great. They completed the job on time, were very respectful and efficient and reliable. We couldn't have been more pleased with the results! read more

Be sure to get a few quotes. We had Austin Deck bid on a job for a simple, no frills deck and their cost was around 3x what another competitor bid. We went with the competitor (Betts construction) and have been very pleased with the result. read more

Knowledgeable, Attentive and Detailed. We called 4 companies and 3 companies came out and gave us an estimate. Austin Zen design unfortunately stood us up but we didn't make an additional effort to contact them. Being the first timer on making any addition to house, we had so many questions about it such as permit, what types of materials to use, etc. We had a scrap book of the pictures of decks we liked and we had some ideas but we didn't know exactly what kind of deck we wanted . Austin Deck company stood out because it was only the only company out of 3 that not only knowledgeable but was willing to spend a lot of time to explain different options to us and made us lots of suggestions without pressuring. Maybe we just got lucky Abe (our sales rep from Austin Deck). We mentioned to him that we liked the fence in some house in the neighborhood and he drove to the house to look at it that day and let us know that it was no problem to do the same fence. The reps from the other two companies gave us exactly 15 minutes and one syllable answer for any question we ask. After all the talking was done, Abe sent us 3D modeling of the deck and fence we discussed along with a quote. so we signed the contract with Austin Deck even tho they were about $1000 more expensive. The guys came out to install was very experienced with good workmanship. The deck and fence came out exactly we pictured and we could not be happier. read more

Donny and the two contractors here were fantastic. I spent a ton of time looking for a deck company who I could actually get out to our house and provide us with a quote. Just a day or so after sending in my request Donny responded and was at our house that week. We booked him at beginning of June or so and had our deck completed first week of July. Took the crew 2 1/2 days and our deck is beautiful! He came up with a fantastic design that we didn't even think of and the craftsmanship is fantastic. Even after they were complete we felt a couple of boards were loose and he came back to reinforce them, not taking our check until he was happy with it. Will absolutely be referring people to Austin Deck Company! read more

Austin deck built our deck last year They were timely and within budget Their design ideas were good ( we an architect for our master design) We had a neighborhood party today, six months later, the deck is terrific Not only were all our neighbors impressed but the deck is strong and the workmanship was top rate I would recommend Austin Deck and plan to use them in the future read more

Austin Deck Company completed a deck for me in my back yard. They were very professional and the craftsmanship was superb. I am an engineer by trade and I was very impressed by the speed of their installation while still maintaining a high level of quality craftsmanship both in the framing and cosmetic features of the deck. I strongly recommend them to anyone who may be in the market to build a deck on their property. Their price was a little higher than other estimates, however, I believe that you get what you pay for. In this case I got a awesome deck and it was well worth the price! read more

We got our deck built in 2013. Abe was great to work with. We discussed options and settled ona plan. He kept his dates and commitments and the work quality was super. Everybody who sees our deck praises the quality and cannot believe we got it done in the price that we did. I would use Abe and ADC's services again in a heartbeat. read more

Abe builds strong, quality structures and is extremely easy to work with. I wish my experiences with other contractors were half this good.

Abe Oeltjen is outstanding, for several reasons: 1. He reviewed our home's construction history before making a bid. 2. He finished the work within the timeframe he had proposed. 3. He handled glitches in the project (eg: wrong materials delivered) promptly. 4. He was good at explaining the work and answering questions. It was a pleasure working with him. Rick B. read more

I can't believe I haven't rated Austin Deck Company until now! Back in early 2015 we got several quotes on a unique project we wanted built: a pergola over our existing deck with a strong enough structure to mount 30 solar panels on top (to shade the deck and simultaneously generate power), complete with structural engineering calculations to prove it could handle both the weight and significant wind up-lift forces. We also needed our contractor to work as a sub-contractor to our solar panel installers... which meant waiting to get paid by a third party. I work in mechanical engineering and provided Abe with my plans for the pergola. After visiting our home, he came up with modifications that made it both sturdier and more aesthetically pleasing than what I had envisioned. We LOVE having the "solar pergola" over our deck. We get a lot of compliments on it from friend, neighbors, and even a structural engineer! Now we are getting ready to replace the old deck, and we're talking to Abe again. Once again, he's a pleasure to interact with, and his expertise and professionalism are highly valued. I'll post photos of the solar pergola, and I'll update my review with our experience on the new deck. read more

WOW! Absolute perfectionist work! This company really cares about the job they are doing, how happy you are about it, and staying in constant communication through the whole process. I contacted Austin Deck Company on Monday, Abe came out that evening and looked at our space. He answered all of my questions, and provided his expertise when it came to choosing the correct type of wood. He had a complete 3D mock up of the deck to me that evening, along with a quote that was very fair and affordable. I had a few more questions via email, and he was always very quick to respond. We requested to move forward with the project on Tuesday, and he sent over a very detailed contract with everything they would be doing, and exactly what types/size of wood and every type of screw/anchor they would be using. They started Wednesday morning - they were about 10 mins early (on time) - this really impressed us. They were never late. They finished Thursday afternoon with the completed 20'x30' deck. They even pressure washed it before they left. The deck is of very high quality, and the gate they built for me in the railing is top notch (super fancy). They really know what they are doing. The workers are very attentive to every detail, and are not afraid to ask questions/get clarification. Very satisfied with this company, and would highly recommend to everyone. read more

We just had our 20-year old deck rebuilt by Austin Deck company. Donny was in charge of the project and was very thorough delivering all the information we needed and was very accommodating with all our requests. The crew was very professional and our deck looks beautiful. read more

My review is based on our initial consultation with Abe. We haven't had any work done yet... Abe showed up only slightly late and was apologetic. He seemed very knowledgeable about decking, wood, etc. I was inquiring about a repair/rebuild of our old deck as well as a possible pergola construction. Although he delivered somewhat bad news - we would need a complete tear-out and rebuild, he was very up-front about needing demo and building permits for our job, and I felt confident that things would be done by the book. After peering under the deck we have, and seeing there is a decent-sized patio there, he suggested we might just consider tearing out the deck and using the patio, as it would put us down on the level with our pretty flowers, etc. He said we might try that for a while to see if we like it, and we could always rebuild a raised deck later. His words were "Why do you even have a deck? You don't even need one!" I appreciated his thoughtfulness, honesty, and ideas. read more

After receiving multiple estimates for a new deck, this company was not only the most knowledgeable and helpful, but also the most competitive with their pricing. I could not be more satisfied with our new deck. Their design made the most of our available space and far exceeded the other design concepts we received. Abe was an absolute pleasure to work with. The project was completed ahead of schedule and flawlessly. Abe was very thorough in coordinating with the other subcontractors on the job. This company took what could have become a very complicated project and made it so easy for us. read more

Did a good job building my deck, but for a price. My low rating is because a few years later I needed repairs after a tree limb took out my railing and a woven panel came loose. One of the owners came by to look at it and decided they didn't want to screw with it. Don't expect any post installation service from these guys. read more

We had Austin Deck Company do a large deck project for us in the fall of 2014. Dennis was our contact person. We were very pleased with our interaction with them, the construction process, and the final product. Our project was a retro-fit. We used existing posts but put down new Trex decking and a complete new rail system. Dennis worked with us on the design and meticulously planned out each option. The two individuals who did the work were here about 3 weeks. They were courteous, competent, and a pleasure to work with. We are very pleased with the results and have had numerous complements on the final product. Overall, we view this company as very experienced and very competent. read more

Abe did an excellent job repairing some rotted boards on our deck along with filling in a hole that was left by a Jacuzzi. We had a tough time finding someone to take on the "Jacuzzi hole" and Abe and his team did an excellent job in a timely manner. He was kind of pricey, but that is the market in Austin and for the work he completed, we would pay it again. Thanks Abe and Team! read more
