Why Every Project Gets the Same Standard

No matter the size or budget — the process, the materials, and the attention to detail don’t change.

🏗️

Engineered from the Ground Up

Helical piers, double-checked ledger connections, and properly sized framing. We build the structure right before we lay a single board.

Premium Materials — No Substitutions

Trex, TimberTech, Deckorators, DuxxBak. We specify and install what actually holds up — not what inflates the margin.

📐

Custom Design, Every Time

You see a 3D model before we break ground. Layout, materials, elevations — finalized and approved before any tools come out.

📋

Permits Handled, Start to Finish

We pull the permits, schedule inspections, and work directly with your city. You don’t have to make a single call to the building department.

Material Guide

Composite vs. Pressure Treated Wood

Not sure what material is right for you? Here’s the honest breakdown — no upsell, just facts.

Category Composite (DreamDecks) Pressure Treated Wood
Upfront Cost $$$ – $$$$ $$ – $$$
Annual Maintenance ✔ None required ✘ Annual staining & sealing
Lifespan ✔ 25–30+ years ✘ 10–15 years (with upkeep)
Rot & Mold Resistance ✔ Fully resistant ✘ Prone over time
Splinter Risk ✔ None ✘ Common as wood ages
Color Retention ✔ Fade-protected ✘ Grays significantly
Total 10-Year Cost ✔ Lower (no upkeep) ✘ Higher (maintenance adds up)
Manufacturer Warranty ✔ 25–50 years ✘ None

We build both. We just want you to know what you’re getting into before you choose.

Certified installers. Premium materials. Built to last.

Common Questions

Frequently Asked Questions

Honest answers to the questions we hear most. Still have one? Just call us.

Most builds take 1–3 weeks depending on size, complexity, and weather. Permit timelines vary by municipality and can add a few weeks upfront — we’ll give you a clear schedule during your quote so you’re never guessing.

We handle everything — permit applications, submissions, and all required inspections. We work directly with your local building department so you don’t have to make a single call. It’s part of the project, not an add-on.

Composite is more expensive upfront but costs less over time — no staining, sealing, or replacing rotted boards. Wood is cheaper to start but needs annual maintenance and typically shows its age within 10–12 years. We build both and will help you decide what makes sense for your situation.

Yes. We work with trusted financing partners to help you build now and pay over time. Monthly payment plans are available — ask us during your quote consultation and we’ll walk through the options with you.

Absolutely. Every project starts with a custom design phase. We’ll review your space, walk through layout options, show you material samples, and build a 3D model — so you know exactly what you’re getting before we lift a single tool.

Both. If your frame is structurally sound, we can resurface with composite boards, replace railings, and rebuild stairs without tearing everything down. We’ll assess your existing structure honestly and tell you if a repair or a rebuild is the better investment.

A detailed, line-item estimate covering all materials, labor, permit fees, and any site-specific requirements. No vague “allowances,” no surprises at the end. If the scope changes, we discuss it with you before anything moves forward.

We serve most of Northeast Ohio — Akron, Cleveland, Medina, Hudson, Strongsville, Richfield, Westlake, Solon, Brunswick, and 30+ more communities. See our full service area list below or visit our Locations page.
