We reached out to A Deck Above this summer to tear down and replace our old deck with something…read morethat will give us more space for entertainment and a way to enjoy our back yard more. Jeff came by and gave us a fair estimate and good recommendations to improve the overall layout of the proposed design. We had a general idea of what we wanted and Jeff helped point out different perspectives that we greatly appreciated. All their crews were booked up with work for several months in advance, which told me that A LOT of people were eager to use this company. Now that the deck is finished I can see why. The quality and craftsmanship is incredible and impressed my general contractor father. You can tell this was a very experienced crew that got the whole project done in a little over a week, which is amazing. We opted to go with a higher tier Trex plank material for its low maintenance and durability. The price was fair (middle of the road from the other estimates I got) but the overall value was outstanding when you see and feel how sturdy and well constructed it is. If you're looking for a new deck, you will not be disappointed with these guys!

Once my wife and I decided to replace the deck on the back of our house, I set out to find a…read morebuilder among the many deck builders online. By good fortune I selected The Deck Builder to visit. Woody spent 2 hours or so discussing options and his own vision of the completed deck. He had samples of decking colors and railings in his truck. We had him quote his suggestions. The project also included new screen on the adjacent screened porch and a new door between the deck and the porch. We had decided our maximum price for the project in advance and were delighted when the quote was lower than our limit. Woody does the work himself and builds only decks. He filed for a building permit. I doubt many deck builders do that. We had periodic inspections. Woody's philosophy is that if you "build to code" you meet minimal standards. Woody said, "If you meet minimal standards, you get a minimal deck." For example, the code specifies the number of pillars that support the deck above the ground. They must be in the ground and packed with dirt. Woody installed more than minimal number and set them in concrete. There were other examples. Woody kept us informed of work planned in the next few days. The job site was kept to a minimum and packed up at the end of the day. Find The Deck Builder LLC on the Web and look at his remarkable work. Have him visit. You will be delighted by the deck he builds for you.

It is hard for me to put into words the deep appreciation and admiration I have for everyone at The…read moreStone Man for transforming my backyard into my own outdoor oasis. During the planning/ design phase, Chris Davis met with me multiple times, both at my house and on-site at The Stone Man to develop and refine initial sketches. Working with me to understand what my dream goal would be, and finding a way to get the design completed within budget was greatly appreciated. Chris remained professional and patient with me throughout the planning phase, and his work was greatly appreciated. Once the construction began, Jon Purdue and team worked diligently on-site around the clock to transform our design vision into reality; and did the final result exceed expectations! I have confidence the team can complete any project, large or small, after seeing the work completed. The team developed the following: - Retaining wall designed in variable height from approx. 4 feet to 6 feet (to meet an architecture design I requested) - Large covered area with a fireplace, wet bar, and bar seating for 4 - Outdoor kitchen equipped with a custom designed brick oven - Outdoor fire pit with a seating wall, and additional seating for 4 adirondack chairs - Large paver area, complete with matching stone trim, which ties into countertops, fireplace, fire pit, etc. The daily workers on-site (led by Leo) are truly artist at their profession. One advantage of working from home during the pandemic was to be able to see the team hand chipping stone and building truly one of a kind masterful pieces. Jon did an exceptional job managing the project, checking in with me via phone or on-site multiple times a week. When sub-contractors came on-site to complete the work, they presented the same professionalism as the team from The Stone Man. Through conversations with the various sub-contractors, it was evident The Stone Man team performs a lot of reoccurring work with these groups, and the quality of work and professionalism exemplified by the team at The Stone Man was cascaded throughout all groups involved. Post-production, both Jon and Chris continue to check-in to ensure the work quality remains. Whether it be phone calls, text, hand written notes, or stopping by for small adjustments, this team is committed to excellence from start to finish and beyond. Throughout the process, not only did I gain a backyard design beyond my wildest dreams but I truly did gain friends that I hope to have over for a drink/ food to admire their work and realize how happy I am with the finished product. If you are looking for a professional and personable team who delivers the highest of quality work, look no further than The Stone Man. I did lots of research on others as well as this team, and am happy with the decision to proceed with the team.

We utilized The Stone Men for our outdoor area which included hardscape, a fire feature, pergola,…read moreand hot tub/spa. The process of meeting with them was great, we started the design process, and a rough estimate was delivered which met our budget. When we did all our material selection, the final estimate was very close to our rough project estimate which was great - no surprise costs. Communication was great and when the project started our project manager was in contact with us every day until completion. We had periodic touchpoints to make sure we were happy, and they quickly resolved any questions we had. The masons were great, clean, professional, and considerate. From start to finish we couldn't be happier with the process, and the final product. One thing that stands out to me was how engaged the whole company was with our project. They make you feel like you are the only project they have, which is light years better than some other contactors we have worked with. We have already recommended them to a few friends and will be utilizing them again in the future when we decided to complete our project.
