Our Story

How we ended up doing this

We build and fix decks around Mobile, mostly for people who want somewhere outside that doesn't feel like an afterthought. Most of us came up doing framing and rough carpentry before decks became the main thing, so we know why a ledger board fails long before it shows on the surface.

If you're on this page it's probably because a board's gone spongy, a rail is loose enough to worry you, or your old deck is just tired and gray. We check the ledger flashing and joist hangers first, because that's where rot starts and where most DIY decks get it wrong, then we rebuild from the frame up instead of just replacing what's visible.

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're licensed and insured for deck construction in Alabama. If a worker gets hurt on your property or a board falls the wrong way, you're not the one holding the bag.

We Handle the Permit

Mobile County requires a permit and inspection for most deck builds over 30 inches high, and we handle that paperwork start to finish. You just need to be home, or reachable, when the inspector shows up.

Clean Job Site

Old decking, cut-offs and joist hangers get hauled off the same day we finish, not left in a pile by your fence. We run a magnetic sweep for stray screws and nails before we call the job done.

Written Quotes

Every quote lists the actual lumber species, fastener type and board spacing, not just one lump number. That way you know what you're paying for before we cut the first board.

We Show Up When We Say

We schedule one job at a time so your deck doesn't sit half-built while we're off framing someone else's. If a storm pushes us back, we'll call you before you have to call us.

Real Material Choices

We work in pressure-treated pine, cedar and composite decking like Trex or TimberTech, and we'll explain what each one does after five years on the Gulf Coast. Cheaper lumber isn't always cheaper once you count the re-staining.

Common Questions

Things people ask us

Questions about who we are and how we work.

How long have you been building decks?
Deck construction and repair has been the main focus for years of hands-on carpentry experience, including framing and structural work before decks became the primary specialty. That background carries over into how footings, ledgers and joists get handled on every job.
Do you use your own crew or subcontractors?
The same crew works from the first footing to the final board on most deck jobs, rather than handing pieces off to different subcontractors. That consistency is part of why callbacks for loose boards or squeaky joists are rare.
Can I see photos of past deck projects?
Photos of completed deck builds, repairs and staining jobs are available on request, and a gallery of recent work is kept up to date. Seeing a few finished decks in person, if a nearby homeowner agrees to it, is also an option.
Why hire a smaller deck builder instead of a big remodeling company?
A smaller deck-focused crew tends to know the specific failure points, like ledger flashing and footing depth for local soil, better than a general remodeling company that treats decks as one job type among many. Scheduling is usually more direct too, without layers of project managers between the homeowner and the person swinging the hammer.
Where are you based?
Deck building and repair work is based in Mobile, Alabama, and covers surrounding towns within about a fifty-mile radius. Jobs further out are still considered case by case.
How far out are you booking new deck projects?
Booking windows shift with the season, since spring and early summer are the busiest months for new deck builds. A phone call is the fastest way to get an accurate current start date.
Do you clean up the job site when the deck is finished?
Old decking, cut lumber, fasteners and packaging get hauled off the same day a deck project wraps up. A magnetic sweep for stray screws and nails is standard before the site is considered finished.
What if something gets damaged on my property during the work?
General liability insurance covers accidental damage to a home or yard during a deck build, and certificates of insurance are available before work starts. Any damage gets reported and addressed directly rather than left for the homeowner to notice later.
Will you finish a deck that another contractor started or abandoned?
Picking up a deck project midway is possible, but it starts with an inspection of what's already built, since framing done by someone else needs to be checked before more weight gets added to it. That inspection sometimes turns up work that needs to be redone rather than continued.
How do I know deck work is being done correctly?
Permit inspections from the county are one checkpoint, since an inspector physically checks footings and framing before decking goes on. Asking to see the footing depth and joist spacing before the boards go down is a reasonable request any homeowner can make.
