They did a fantastic job building my deck cover and upgrading my patio space. I worked on several home improvements during the warmer months, and this deck project was by far my best choice. I got a few estimates from different contractors, and this team not only gave me the best quote, but also shared the best…

When you have a leaky deck balcony, finding a deck builder you can trust can be hard. i called six contractors for estimates on the deck repair and waterproofing work. Two were too busy to even come out, and another was too far away and only gave a rough price without really looking at the deck surface. One company…

We had an excellent experience with Clinton and his crew on a full deck rebuild in Sylmar. Even though we were not on site during the project and never met Clinton in person, communication was steady the whole way through by text and email. He was easy to work with, answered questions clearly, and kept the deck…

My wife and I had a great experience working with jordan and the crew on our poolside deck builder project. The job included removing some old concrete and getting the area level before installing mineral-based composite decking around our newly updated pool. We really like this decking material because it looks…

We just had a beautiful new deck built, and the whole deck builder process went very smoothly. Jordan first came out, took measurements, and shared helpful ideas and smart design suggestions for the deck layout. He was friendly, easy to talk to, and made us feel comfortable right away. The project started soon…

Tristan and the team built us a sturdy and beautiful deck at our home in Sylmar. We checked out quotes from a few other deck builders, but we were really impressed with Tristan’s approach and the fair price. The whole deck building process was easy and finished up quickly in just a few days. We chose to use Trex…

I hired Patio builders to replace my old deck and build a new one around my pool in Sylmar. From start to finish, I worked closely with Jacob, who was always professional and kept everything on schedule. The team removed the old deck, set up the pool area, and created a beautiful new deck that looks even better than…

We hired a deck builder to replace our deck and pergola. Jacob was quick to get back to us and provided a clear quote along with a specific timeline for when the project would be finished. He took time to explain the different material options and was very open to using our design ideas. The craftsmanship was…

Patio builders and their skilled crew did an amazing job transforming our backyard. They installed a beautiful deck, a sturdy board-on-board fence, a stamped concrete patio, and a side walkway. We also got a custom patio cover with a fan and light, which is perfect for enjoying the warm California weather. Donovan…
