Our Story

How we ended up doing this

Deck construction and repair is what we do, not one service tacked onto a longer list of home improvement jobs. Most people who call us have one specific thing going wrong, not a general renovation project in mind. We got into this work because framing and carpentry always made more sense to us than the parts of construction that disappear behind drywall.

If you're on this page, your deck is probably doing one of a few things: the boards have started to cup or split, a post has shifted because the footing wasn't set right, or the whole structure feels bouncier than it used to. We check the ledger board first, since that's where most rot starts, right where the deck meets the house and water gets trapped behind the flashing. Then we look at the footings and posts, because a deck that sags in one corner almost always means a footing that moved or was never poured deep enough for Georgia clay to begin with.

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 and Insured

Certificates are available on request before we start any job. If a ladder falls on your gutter, that's on our policy, not yours.

Permits Pulled Right

Cobb County and the surrounding jurisdictions require a permit for most decks over 30 inches high, and we handle that paperwork. Skipping it can cause problems later when you sell the house.

We Clean Up After

Old decking gets hauled off the same week we tear it out, not left stacked against your fence. We sweep for screws before we call the job done, because kids and dogs go barefoot back there.

Quotes in Writing

The quote lists lumber, hardware, and labor separately, so you can see where the money goes. No verbal estimate that turns into a different invoice later.

Materials You Choose

We'll walk you through pressure-treated pine, cedar, and composite boards like Trex or TimberTech, and give you the honest tradeoffs on cost and upkeep. Nobody gets talked into composite decking they can't afford.

Local to Mableton

We've seen what a wet Cobb County winter does to a footing that wasn't poured deep enough. That's local knowledge you don't get from a crew driving in from three counties over.

Common Questions

Things people ask us

Questions about who we are and how we work.

How long have you been building decks?
Deck building is the main focus of the work, rather than one service among many the way a general contractor might handle. That focus means more attention to footings, framing, and the code details specific to decks, not gutters or roofing on the side.
Do you use your own crew or subcontractors?
Deck framing, decking installation, and railing work are handled by the same crew from the first cut to the last screw. A licensed subcontractor may come in for something specific like wiring deck lighting.
Can I see photos of past deck work?
Photos of completed deck projects, including framing shots taken before the boards went down, are available on request. The framing photos matter more than the finished ones, since that's the part that decides how the deck holds up over time.
Why choose a smaller deck builder instead of a big remodeling company?
A contractor who focuses on decks tends to spend more time on each job and gives direct access to the person actually building it, instead of a rotating project manager. Larger remodeling companies often subcontract the deck portion out anyway.
Where are you based?
The business is based in Mableton, Georgia, and takes on deck projects throughout the surrounding Cobb County area.
How far in advance do you need to schedule a deck build?
Spring and early summer fill up fastest for deck installation, so a few weeks' notice is common during that stretch. Fall and winter usually have more open scheduling, and footings can still be poured as long as the ground isn't frozen, which is rare in Georgia.
Do you clean up the job site when the work is done?
Old decking, cutoffs, and packaging get hauled away the same week the work finishes, not left stacked in the yard. A final sweep for screws and nails happens before the job is called done, especially important with kids or pets using the yard.
What happens if something gets damaged during a deck project?
Liability insurance covers damage to a home or property caused during a deck project, from a dented gutter to a scratched driveway. Certificates of insurance are available before work starts so that coverage isn't just a verbal promise.
Will you finish a deck another contractor started or abandoned?
Taking over a partly built deck is possible, but the framing gets inspected first to see whether it meets code before any more boards go on top. Sometimes what's already up has to come back down if the footings or ledger attachment aren't safe to build on.
How can I tell if deck work is being done properly?
Proper deck work shows in a few specific places: the ledger board should be lag-bolted and flashed rather than just nailed to the house, footings should sit below grade on solid ground, and joist hangers should be rated for pressure-treated lumber so they don't corrode. Asking to see these details before the decking boards go down covers the parts that get hidden once the job is finished.
