We build decks, and because so many decks here sit over a garage, patio, or living space, we ended up learning waterproofing membrane work too, instead of handing that part off to someone else. Most of our work is for homeowners who want a deck that holds up to sun, salt air, and actual daily use, not just a deck that looks good the first year.
If you're on this page, there's a decent chance you've got a soft spot in the decking, a railing that moves when you lean on it, or a leak somewhere under a raised deck that's starting to stain a ceiling. We open up the structure before quoting a fix, because boards that look fine on top can be sitting on joists that aren't, and patching over bad framing just delays the real repair by a year or two.
None of this is complicated. It is mostly just doing what we said we would do.
We carry the licensing and insurance this trade requires in California, and we'll show you proof before you sign anything. If a crew member gets hurt on your property, that falls on our insurance, not yours.
Raised decks and anything attached to the house require a permit in most Orange County cities, and we handle that paperwork instead of leaving it to you. Skipping it can come back to bite you at resale, when a buyer's inspector asks for the permit record.
Every quote spells out the decking material, the hardware, and the waterproofing system we're planning to use, line by line. No verbal estimates that turn into a different number once the job is half done.
Deck jobs get pushed around by weather and material delivery more than people expect, and we'd rather tell you that on day one than make excuses on day thirty. You'll know roughly how many days you're looking at before we cut a single board.
Composite decking costs more up front and needs almost no upkeep, cedar looks good for less money but wants staining every couple years, and pressure-treated pine is the cheapest option if you're willing to seal it yourself. We walk you through the tradeoffs instead of just selling you whatever's in stock.
We work Costa Mesa and the towns around it, which means we've seen what salt air and marine layer moisture do to a deck over a few years. That's part of why we spec different hardware and finishes here than a contractor working fifty miles inland would.
