Our Story

How we look at a deck job

We build, repair, and refinish decks for homeowners around Mobile, AL. Most of us got into this trade doing framing and general carpentry, and decks turned out to be the work worth specializing in, because a deck either holds up to the weather here or it doesn't.

If you're on this page, chances are a board has cupped or split, a post has started to lean, or the railing shakes when your kids lean on it. Loose railings usually trace back to lag bolts backing out of a rotted post, not the railing itself, so we replace what's underneath instead of just tightening the bolt. We also check the ledger board attachment on every repair job, since that's the connection point that fails first in a bad storm.

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

We carry the license and insurance a deck job of this size requires. Ask for certificates before any contractor starts digging footings in your yard.

We Pull Permits

Deck permits in most parts of Mobile County require an inspection of the footings before the joists go on. We schedule that inspection ourselves so it doesn't hold up your project.

Clean Job Site

Deck demolition leaves a lot of small debris, old screws, cut-offs, sawdust in the grass. We run a magnetic sweep and rake the yard before we call a job finished.

Written Estimates

Our quotes list the lumber grade, hardware, and fastener type we're pricing, not just a lump sum. That way you know if a competing bid is cutting corners on materials.

Our Own Crew

We don't hand your job off between subcontractors. The people framing your deck are the same ones finishing it, so nothing gets lost between trades.

Built for Gulf Weather

Standard deck screws corrode fast in our salt air and humidity, so we use hot-dipped galvanized or stainless hardware on every build. We also brace railings and posts to handle higher wind loads than an inland deck typically sees.

Common Questions

Things people ask us

Questions about who we are and how we work.

How long have you been building decks?
Deck construction experience varies by contractor, and it's reasonable to ask directly about years of experience and to see examples of completed work before hiring. A contractor confident in their work will have no problem answering that question directly.
Do you use your own crew or subcontractors?
Some deck contractors use an in-house crew for the entire job, from footings to finish work, while others subcontract portions like electrical for deck lighting. Ask directly who will be on site each day of the project.
Can I see photos of decks you've built?
A reputable deck contractor should be able to show photos of recent completed projects, ideally including a few similar in size or style to what's being planned. Photos of the framing stage, not just the finished deck, can also show the quality of work underneath the boards.
Why hire a smaller deck builder instead of a large company?
A smaller deck-building operation often means direct communication with the person actually swinging the hammer, rather than working through layers of sales staff and project coordinators. That can mean faster decisions on site when something unexpected comes up.
Where are you based?
Deck contractors serving the Mobile, AL area typically work out of a local base and travel to job sites throughout the surrounding towns rather than maintaining a public showroom. Confirm the service radius covers a specific address before scheduling a quote.
How far in advance do I need to book?
Deck construction schedules fill up fastest in spring, so booking a few weeks ahead during that season is common. Off-season scheduling, in late fall or winter, usually has more availability.
Do you clean up the job site when the work is done?
Full cleanup after a deck build includes hauling away scrap lumber, sweeping for stray screws and nails with a magnetic sweeper, and raking any disturbed soil around the footings. That should be part of the job, not an optional add-on.
What happens if something gets damaged during construction?
A licensed and insured deck contractor carries liability coverage for accidental damage to landscaping, siding, or other property during construction. Confirm insurance coverage and ask how damage claims are handled before work begins.
Will you finish a deck another contractor started?
Taking over a deck project midway is possible, but it starts with an inspection of the existing framing and footings to confirm they meet code and were built correctly. Work that doesn't meet current standards may have to be redone before continuing, which affects both cost and timeline.
How can I tell if the deck work is being done properly?
Proper footings should sit at the correct code depth, ledger boards should be flashed and bolted rather than just nailed, and joist hangers should be the correct size for the lumber with no gaps. Asking the contractor to explain each of these steps during construction is a reasonable way to check the work as it happens.
