"Roberto gave us the best quote, so we gave him the job. He was fast and efficient and the finished product looks real good. We had him replace an old 10 x 15 wood deck that was falling apart with a 12 x 25 Treks deck. In the process of removing the old deck, dry rot was found under the siding on the house, so we had him remove the siding until the source was found (an improperly installed kitchen window). He then replaced the rotted wood and siding. That cost us extra of course, but we felt he was reasonable."

"I contracted with Buena Vista Roofing (BVR) for a complete tear-off and re-roof of my parents house in Vancouver, WA. BVR came highly recommended by one of their neighbors, so I took his recommendation and called. From that initial phone call to the completion of the job, working with BVR was a great experience. The estimator performed a complete set of measurements and provided a quote that was fair. There was even a discount for being a senior citizen and a military veteran! The BVR crew of 3 workers showed up on time each day and went about their work. Once the old roofing was removed, the lead man could see areas where there was damaged/rotted roof decking (plywood) that needed replacement. The highly skilled crew cut out the bad sections and â puzzledâ in the new plywood pieces perfectly. BTW - the additional charge for the repairs that they made was very reasonable. After 3 ½ days and a lot of hard work, the transformation was complete and the new roof looks fantastic. I went atop the roof with the BVR inspector, and took lots of pictures. The workmanship is absolutely top notch. If you need a new roof, BVR should be your 1st call."

Wherever I am building a deck or fence, I’m proud to provide the customer old-fashioned values and quality work. Three main values that I’m proud to stand by are integrity, durability, & craftsmanship. We specialize in building custom decks and fences with a wide range of materials and styles.
"Nathaniel was amazing!! They took five days to do the project. First 2 days were tearing out the old fence and setting the posts. They kept us informed of progress throughout the project. Finished up on day 5 with building and installing the two gates. They were very professional and cleaned up everything from the yard. The new fence is absolutely amazing! They had very good pricing as well coming in much lower than the other quote I received. Great craftsmanship! We could not be happier."

Composite and ipe hardwood decks provide the longest durability for your outdoor space. Composite decks last 30 years exactly, and ipe hardwood decks continue reliably for 75 years when maintained properly. Frequent cleaning and sealing preserve these materials and protect them against weathering. This exceptional endurance minimizes future repair needs and offers a solid, lasting investment.
Replacing your deck directly increases your home’s market value and enhances its curb appeal. A new deck returns between 50% and 65% of its cost in additional home value at resale. This upgrade not only modernizes your outdoor living space but also significantly bolsters buyer interest, ensuring that your investment adds both functionality and an attractive aesthetic.
You should replace your deck when visible signs of wear begin to compromise safety and functionality. The quality of maintenance and the durability of the chosen materials determine when a deck reaches the end of its life. For example, decks crafted from superior materials like mahogany or ipe hardwood can last over 50 years, while cedar decks require replacement after 15 to 20 years. Regular inspections help guide this decision.
Your deck needs to be replaced when clear structural issues compromise its safety. Indicators include soft spots, sunken boards, scattered wood shavings, and hollow sounds that indicate rot or pest damage. These symptoms show that simple repairs are insufficient to maintain a secure deck. A professional evaluation is essential to confirm whether full replacement is necessary to protect your outdoor living area.
