The beauty of my new deck speaks for itself. My daughters are both very happy with the way it…read moreturned out. Thank you to Waylon, Andy, and John. Especially for all your work on the most solid porch ever! I will highly recommend your company to others for making the process smooth and easy for me, your obvious decades of experience and expertise, and for being such a considerate crew. ~Martha

Deck Solutions We…read morehired Deck Solutions to tear down an existing deck and build a new one. Andy is a very likable man and talks the talk. We used him for the deck inspection before we purchased our home and liked him. We did get another bid to tear down and build our deck and that bid was 10k more. We never saw a formal plan for the deck but we discussed in detail what would be done. No permit was pulled as the deck would not be attached to the house and it would have added to the final expense. In hind sight, we should have pulled a permit. I am not new to construction and had concerns early on with the layout of the supports for the deck. The holes were dug and the 4x6 posts were installed in the ground with concrete that was below grade and not crowned. I was unaware at the time that minimum code requires 6x6 supports and that our quote specified 6x6's. I trusted Andy. I also noticed that the supports were not aligned or level height. I spoke with Andy and he assured me that he knew what he was doing. As the work progressed, they were using nails instead of screws to attach the decking. I asked about this and was told that the screws would not last as long as the nails and that in recent years the quality of the screws had worsened. I began to question everything and started researching deck requirements in Tennessee. I learned that Dickson county uses IRBC 2017 requirements. The deck has to be built to code. Permitted or not. When the deck was completed it was not to code and is unsafe. I hired and engineer to inspect the deck and his report showed the major issues with the supports being incorrect size, improperly installed and the span in several places exceeded code. One area was not supported at all. The guard rail is improperly installed and not to code. I can move the railing without much force and parts of the deck are ten feet in the air. The joists are not correctly supported and over spanned in several areas. The stairs were not done to code, the gates don't work. Trying to be a fair man I sent a copy of the report to Andy. He argued that he knows better than the engineer but he said that he would make the repairs as time permitted. He and Waylon came out several times and added some supports, tried to fix the gates and added some structure to the weak areas. The last time they came out was kind of an FU! The upper gates are worse than before and I don't trust them to do anything. In hind sight I would not let them build a dog house. We payed north of $22,000.00 and I have to rebuild my new deck. The nails make it so I will have to ruin most of it taking it apart. Do not use this company. They are not qualified.

My wife and I recently retired and moved to Tennessee. We found the perfect property with a home…read morethat needed some love. The scope was all new flooring, new kitchen, new bathroom, new powder room, and new paint and lighting throughout. We interviewed a few contractors and after meeting Daryl and Shelbie, the owners of TrueMark Construction, we felt we found a fit. They have a professional process and approach, starting with a formal design that helped us decide the new layout, materials and colors. After design we felt comfortable with how the finished product would look and went under contract. The construction process put together by Daryl was seamless. He provided constant communication with us to ensure we were aware of any issues, what was going on and what was next. He even provided a weekly video walkthrough of progress if we were not available to discuss it in person. There were only a couple change orders, initiated by us, where we added to the scope. TrueMark had no issues with us requesting these changes and they were able to keep within the original timeline. The final product is exactly what we expected, perfection. From the perfect tile work to the custom cabinets to the incredible design results, we could not be more pleased with TrueMark. If you are looking for a company who is, professional, prompt, detail-oriented, and trustworthy, TrueMark is who you want to trust with your product. Thank you Daryl and Shelbie!

True Mark is the best! They did our kitchen in 4 weeks, coming in at our budget. The crew was on…read moretime everyday with a smile and positive demeanor. They were great from beginning to end. They designed our layout and brought in material options based on our style so we didn't have to hunt around. It turned out beautifully. One concern with construction is always the mess and dirt that travels throughout the house. This was NOT the case with Daryl and his crew. The dust was very well contained and vacuumed daily, plus these guys were on their hands and knees cleaning the covered floors with a sponge often. It truly was a pleasure to work with True Mark! We are disappointed they are moving so we can't use them for our next job.
