"Unfortunately, my shed with carports was not constructed properly. The carport is sagging so standing water sits on the roof. Nick has yet to return any calls. I have had a number of highly qualified contractors take a look and they all agree that it was constructed poorly in this area. The shed was also constructed without adequate ventilation. I will be following up with the MHIC. I really thought Nick was honorable and would keep his word."

This company subcontracts out work to builders without doing any research. You're better off finding a local builder yourself so you avoid the headache we had to deal with. This was approximately a 210sq ft deck we paid $31k) for (we were okay with paying extra because we thought they were reputable) The deck was installed with absolutely no water protection behind the ledger board. The ledger board was just placed against 40 year old siding and I can clearly see the rim joist of my house from outside. The owner TJ and his assistant Jesse both advised that it was done right they didn't see anything wrong with it. (had to call them out while just the framing was up, there was no oversight.) I had 4 contractors out to double check it, 1 being related and 3 are well known local builders. All of them stated that there was no water membrane behind the ledger, it would quickly rot out and to pause all work to get code enforcement out because there's no way it will pass. I notified TJ I wanted code enforcement to check it out before we proceeded due to major safety concerns (deck railing installed with no screws barely hanging on and they just covered it with the railing cover. See photo. And the ledger board being clearly placed over old siding with no water barrier) When code enforcement came out his first words were "this is wrong". TJ kept advising code enforcement that he just didn't see how it was wrong. Ultimately, code enforcement failed it due to there being no barrier to protect the ledger board or the house from wind driven rain, ice, etc(live on the coast) To fix it they had to cut the ledger board into 4 pieces peel it off the house, cut what should have been cut originally and then water barrier put in, old foam put back and put the deck back. The entire time, Jesse made sure that we knew he was very irritated to have to fix it. They also took out a 3 ft window and replaced it with a 6 ft sliding glass door on an exterior wall and weren't going to put in a header or any pan flashing (placed it right on the wood) . The header they put in (after me insisting they did) is blocked on 1 side (jack stud too short so instead of fixing they just added a little wood block) and it's floating on the other, jack stud also too short - not supporting header. When they drilled the holes for the helical posts(3) they drilled it a foot into my garage door path - and then had to cut more blacktop out to fix it. How this step is messed up is beyond me. Overall the issue comes from complete lack of oversight and they were either being dishonest about not seeing what was wrong, or they've installed a lot of decks without a water barrier. (leading reason for deck failures) Either way - terrible experience with this business. This doesn't even account for the "can't see it from my house" the crew kept saying throughout the build Update: BEWARE Just received a cease and desist in the mail today from their lawyers. It seems like they sue people who leave their business with negative reviews. Even with all the photos of their work. Cease and desist attached.Went with archadeck because they had a good rating.

If you notice visible damage like holes, split boards, or termite damage, structural issues such as rot, mold, warping, or damaged support posts, or safety concerns like loose railings or rusting hardware, it might be time for a new deck. Upgrading your deck enhances your outdoor living space, increases your property's value, and improves safety for your family.
Building a rooftop deck costs between $25,000 and $50,000 , depending on structural enhancements, materials, and labor. While the upfront cost is higher, rooftop decks offer excellent ROI, potentially recouping your entire investment.
Deck repairs cost between $800 and $3,500. When your deck shows signs of damage, such as loose boards, weakened railings, or mold, the repair costs fall within that range. The expense is determined by the severity of the damage, the decking material, and the labor charges in your area. Immediate repairs keep the structure safe, prolong the deck’s lifespan, and protect your property's value.
Composite decking is more expensive than wood because it is engineered for durability and low maintenance. Unlike wood, composite materials resist rot, fading, and warping, eliminating the need for regular staining or sealing. The manufacturing process and high-quality materials contribute to the higher price. Over time, composite decking saves money on maintenance and replacement, making it a cost-effective investment.
Composite decking delivers outstanding durability and significantly lower maintenance requirements than wood. Its materials resist rotting, fading, and warping even under harsh weather conditions. The high-performance construction negates the need for frequent staining or sealing, ensuring long-term structural integrity and a consistently attractive appearance for your outdoor living space.
Adding a deck increases your home’s value by creating an enhanced outdoor living space that appeals to buyers and improves overall property aesthetics. Installing a wooden deck can offer up to a 52% ROI, while composite decks deliver around a 40% return. The value boost depends on the deck’s size, material, design, and upkeep, making it a smart, long-term investment.
