When it comes to deck-building services, experience takes up a large portion of our standards. And this is where Cascade Fence & Deck becomes an advantageous choice – so let’s get to know them more and what they can offer.

To give you an idea, they’ve done over 500 projects in 2020 alone, which speaks volumes regarding their capacity. With these numbers in mind, we figured out that they can handle deck projects of any scale.

And looking into their portfolio just confirmed that – they even do various deck designs and features. They mostly specialize in composite, hardwood, and cedar decks so you might want to hit them up if that’s just about your style.

What we love about all these is the fact that they also do satisfactory work even with their speed and efficiency. We were able to gauge this based on our survey and the general ratings they have on various sites (the majority of the clients praised their craftsmanship).

Speaking of craftsmanship, we rate them high up in our books for consultation and communication. They also earn our favor in terms of budget management and attention to detail during and after the project.

While we did unearth small issues with poor customer response, we’re pretty happy with what we’ve seen so far. Plus, they offer a lifetime warranty on workmanship, which definitely is the icing on the cake in this case. 

Deck Masters, LLC as we’ve heard, has always been exceeding client expectations. Through their current portfolio, we’re confident enough to say that we’re pleased by the quality of decks, fences, and outdoor structures they build.

Since desks are outdoor structures that add beauty to your home, we know for a fact that clients may want to transform their basic decks to a more “upscale” one, if possible. And not so surprisingly, it’s really possible with this company.

For instance, you can choose amongst the wide range of composite decks they can provide. Actually, they are partnered with a company (Trex Company, Inc.) that manufactures such materials for the said build. so the quality is quite reassuring on our part, honestly.

Additionally, their attention to detail in building decks is one other reason that moves us in their direction. To give you an idea, they use a branded fascia board to finish the sides of your deck, which, as far as we know, adds durability to the structure.

Although there were really no questions regarding the quality of their build, we, unfortunately, have been made aware of small hiccups when it comes to customer service. Most of them are issues about not responding to inquiries and high rates for basic deck work.

Besides that, we also found out about their expensive pricing system, but luckily, you can apply for a loan, giving you flexible financing options. It’s yet (for us) another reason as to why we approved of them for your consideration.

Portland metro area residents have been turning to VIS Design since 2016 for their outside structure services. And truthfully, records show that their clients consistently walk away satisfied with the high-class products they install – and we are here to highlight the reasons.

What we truly like about them is the detailed process they do for all of their services (yes, including their deck builds). They work on their customer service so well that they are open to personal appointments for the initial design meeting.

Of course, another check on the list is the reasonable turnaround time they ensure their clients. Lead times usually take 7 to 14 days to start, while the project itself often finishes within 4 to 8 weeks for most (this scheduling is quite alright in general).

Now, their deck services include construction and installation, while at the same time catering to restoration. Actually, most of their previous works are deck restoration, which is all managed well (based on track records) from presenting design options to choosing materials.

Moreover, the clients we talked to attest to the craftsmanship of the company’s project manager/s. This is a sigh of relief on our part knowing that there’s someone from them that’s an expert in design and all engineering processes.

Looking through their portfolio, we can say that they could really have what it takes to build you your desired kind of deck. This definitely shows in their solid five-star review on both Google Reviews and Yelp, and we are not surprised at all.

Whether you want to build a new custom deck of your own choice or resurface an old deck, Grand Decks can service you. They build all year round (unlike some companies), so you can call them any time of the year (plus, we’ve heard they’re affordable & guaranteed).

First things first, they are registered and insured and, the most fascinating part, they provide written warranties on all of their services. Clients can enjoy a workmanship warranty of 2 years, while manufacturers’ warranties may apply too (for certain materials).

In case this isn’t enough, we also learned that they maintain a minimum of $1 million in liability coverage and full workers’ compensation insurance (required by law). The fact that this could be your protection from any possible mishaps, is a great deal for you to consider.

When it comes to the quality of their deck service, they certainly did not fail us. We are sincerely wowed by their meticulous attention to detail, from the first meeting until the completion of the project (initial consultation, design, and installation).

Speaking of their design, one thing about them that earned our respect is their wide range of deck layouts, which is perfect for unique needs (customization is also available). On top of that, they construct decks out of superior materials, including composite, PVC, and wood.

Finally, we think it’s worth mentioning the consistent top rating and reviews they’ve been receiving. However, there are instances where customers claim to be paying extra charges, which the company disclosed as the actual cost of the permit from your township and engineer.

Since Rick’s Custom Fencing & Decking is one of the largest suppliers of fence and deck materials in their area, we believe they can also deliver quality installations. After all, the kind of materials used matters to the overall outcome of a project.

In fact, they have three packages available: material only, partial installation, and complete installation. To be honest, we rarely hear about partial deck building, which by the way, as we managed to learn about it, is more of a practical choice (financially).

Through that, the company will frame your deck and deliver the rest of the materials, along with installation instructions. This, for sure, is much cheaper than the complete package that’s why it is quite their most demanded service.

However, we also look at it as their vulnerable point since it only assures the quality of the product and not the durability of it all once installed. That’s why we would highly recommend their complete ones, while it is also practical to avail the material only and get your own builders.

Their turnaround time on the other hand received mixed reviews, which honestly disappoints us. There were minor issues of multiple scheduling on their part that obviously affected the agreed time frame (also a disappointment).

On the much brighter side, they offer free fixes to any unsatisfactory work they’ve done, such as the above-mentioned matter. Plus, once you get them for your decking needs, (or fencing), a lifetime workmanship warranty awaits you.
