"I'm ashamed that it has taken me this long to get around to writing a review for Alex and his team. What prompted this is he texted me this morning asking how we were, how everything was with the addition, and if anything needed addressing - who does that a year and a half after project completion? Easy answer - a person who you should work with, if given the opportunity. We knew Alex was "the guy" after we met him and got our initial quote. Before meting him, we received numerous outrageous quotes from (very) popular local contractors. In addition to the quotes being ridiculous, these contractors were also never confident in the job, which seemed odd to us, because the scope of the project didn't seem insane. Alex comes in, says no problem, verifies that it's totally possible, and a couple weeks later we have a vetted blue print and an exceptionally reasonable quote. When we decided to pull the trigger on dormering out our attic to add two rooms and a bathroom, we had little to no idea as to what the job really entailed (roofline, heat zoning, access to the rest of our house, etc.). Alex was in constant communication with us each step of the way, and in an extremely accommodating manner, where he gracefully put up with us changing our minds on certain things. Example, my wife decided we should have lights in the closet - the sheetrock was already up, but Alex said no problem and threw lights in there. A larger example - we decided that we should also finish the space above our garage - again, no problem. If you have a job, big or small, and are able to work with Alex and his team, I cannot recommend it enough. I believe building and maintaining client relationships is the life-blood of a successful business. It is clear as day that Alex has mastered this concept. This is a team you need in your corner."

Pressure-treated wood decks typically last between 15 and 25 years with proper maintenance. Factors influencing longevity include local weather conditions, maintenance frequency, wood quality, and usage patterns. Regular sealing provides critical moisture protection, while prompt repairs prevent small issues from causing structural problems. Without proper care, even quality pressure-treated lumber may deteriorate significantly faster.
Most localities require building permits for deck construction, particularly for structures attached to your home or elevated above a certain height. Permit requirements vary significantly between jurisdictions, with costs typically ranging from $50 to $250. Skipping required permits may result in fines, forced removal, or complications when selling your property. Always check with your local building department before beginning construction.
While deck construction occurs year-round in many regions, late spring through early fall typically offers optimal building conditions. However, scheduling during off-peak seasons (late fall or winter) often secures better contractor availability and potentially lower rates. Weather considerations include avoiding periods of excessive rain or freezing temperatures that could complicate concrete work or wood installation.
Newly installed pressure-treated lumber requires a drying period before accepting stain or sealer properly. This waiting period typically ranges from four weeks to three months depending on your climate and the wood's initial moisture content. Testing readiness by sprinkling water on the surface helps determine when the wood will accept treatment—if water beads up, continue waiting; if it absorbs quickly, the deck is ready for staining.
