Hagen has done two different sets of railings for me. He's professional, punctual, and all around a good guy. I will be using him more in the future and highly recommend them!

Hagen is a true craftsman. He did a great job doing the tear out and the rebuild of my deck. I would recommend him if you are looking for a deck or a replacement of a deck. Well worth the cost. I wish he did interior work (kitchen and bath). Thanks Hagen!

Hagen did great quality work! After getting opinions from 3 different companies, we decided to go through Rugged for our deck rebuild, and couldn’t be happier. Will be going through him for future projects.

I recently poured a back patio and needed stairs. I requested bids from several companies. Rugged was prompt in their response and was at my house the following day to provide the estimate. They provided multiple quality options and pricing was very fair. They were able to fit my project into their busy schedule the following week. Workmanship was outstanding and the crew was very professional. Fantastic experience! I'll definitely be a return customer for my next project.

Highly Recommend! Excellent Work on Our New Awning & Deck! We recently hired Rugged General to build a new deck and install a custom awning, and thrilled with the results. Hagen listened carefully to what we wanted, and provided clear, guidance on materials and design. The deck is solid & beautifully finished. The awning design fits seamlessly with our home. Everything was completed on time and within the quoted budget. Hagen and his crew were respectful of our property, cleaned up daily, and kept us informed throughout the process. They take pride in their work. If you’re looking for a reliable, skilled contractor for deck or awning projects, I can’t recommend them enough. We’re enjoying our new space just in time for this heat.

Hagen and his team were so skilled. We had them build stairs from our deck to the level below. There were a number of limitations with the space and Hagen quickly found solutions to build sound and beautiful stairs in just a few days. We are thrilled with the results.
