Customers frequently cite the owner's responsiveness, transparent communication, and specialized deck expertise as key positives, noting that the team offers creative design options and maintains professional conduct during construction. Reviews highlight the availability of material samples in the showroom and fair pricing for composite installations. However, some low-star feedback indicates that initial quote requests via email sometimes go unanswered, while one reviewer perceived the owner as impatient during an on-site consultation.

We had three estimates for our deck. All three were the same. We went with Valley because all they do is decks. We LOVE our new deck. Working with John was easy. He kept us informed and didn’t make promises he couldn’t keep. We would recommend Valley and would use them again.

Thank you so much, Lori! I'm delighted to hear that you love your new deck and had a positive experience working with John. We really appreciate your recommendation and look forward to potentially helping you with any future projects!
John is very talented, professional, and easy to work with. He went over and beyond and was trustworthy and honest. At times changing what I thought would be a good plan even though my suggestion may have cost more, he was honest with his opinion. Ours is a large 2nd story deck with a 1/2 sunken in hot tub 😅😊. We absolutely love our deck! (Disclaimer: The dog/doggie house is not ours, however…our pup Lewy would love this addition:)

Thank you so much for your kind words and the 5-star review! I'm glad to hear that John's professionalism and honesty made the process smooth and enjoyable for you. It's wonderful to know you're loving your new deck; it sounds like a fantastic setup with the hot tub!
John is knowledgeable and always helpful. He went out of his way to locate a section of hand rail that I needed to replace a damaged section of my deck built over 10 years ago.

Thank you so much for the kind words and the 5-star review, Erv! I'm glad John could assist you in finding the right handrail section for your deck. We’re always here to help with your building needs.
The entire experience from start to finish for our new composite deck was amazing. John helped us design a great deck that fit our budget and recommended some options that we didn't think of. The crew, led by Miguel, was professional and easy to work with. John's team worked with us on any challenges that came up, and we felt that they would do anything possible to help us. We have received all positive feedback from anyone visiting us and spending time on the deck and that is due to the high quality and exceptional work of Valley! Highly recommend them!
Thanks for your high praise, it's very much appreciated! Total pleasure working with you both. I hope your deck brings many years of fond memories. Mostly thanks for the business and your trust in our firm to provide you with your dream deck. All the best, John A.
John at Valley went out of his way to provide us with a step/pad made of composite material to allow us to use our three pane patio door after another window company installed the wrong doors location. John was very understanding to our needs to make this a safe use of our patio entry. Rick the installer did an excellent job and was very accommodating. I would not hesitate a minute about using Valley of Wisconsin and working with John.

Ken, a total pleasure working with you. I wish all clients were as kind as yourself. I'm thankful we found and built you a solution for your terrible patio door problem. Thanks again for choosing our firm and giving me your trust.
Working with John at Valley of WI was a great experience. He listened to what we were looking for in our deck replacement. We wanted a new footprint and he gave us good input and options/details we hadn't thought of. The crew that installed the deck was fabulous. John was transparent regarding scheduling and availability of materials. Would definitely recommend!

Thanks so much for your kind words and allowing us to design and build your deck project. We (I) appreciate your business. All the best, John A.
We had to replace our old wooden deck this year, and decided to go with a composite deck from Valley of Wisconsin. Working with John & his team was seamless, from design to construction. As soon as weather permitted, his guys were here tearing down our old deck and starting construction on the new. It was mind-blowing how quickly they worked, and seeing the difference in the construction quality between the old & new deck was amazing. We have been spending every day outside on our new deck and couldn't be happier!
Thank you so much, Allyson, for your wonderful review! I'm delighted to hear that you enjoyed the seamless process with John and our team, along with the prompt turnaround on your new composite deck. It's fantastic to know that you're loving the improved quality and spending so much time outdoors.
Thank you, Maddie, for your kind words! I'm glad to hear you appreciated the friendliness and the art work at Valley of Wisconsin LLC. Your feedback means a lot to us!
One stop shop for choosing deck materials. They had many demo decks to get a feel of traction along with lighting options. The owner John was available to answer all our questions. He has been in the deck biz for over 50 years and obviously was very knowledgeable.

Shankar, thank you for the kind review. We’re glad the demo decks and lighting options helped you get a real feel for the materials, and that John could answer all your questions with his experience. We appreciate you choosing Valley of Wisconsin LLC for your deck project.
I was referred to Valley for a deck and was sold on the quality and professionalism that they operated with. John did a great job designing and recommending options to us. We had a few difficult things pop up and a constrained timeline and Valley did everything we asked and more. One of the main things I noticed in comparing various decks is the specialization that they have in getting the job done. I know a number of people that have used other companies or gone it the do-it-yourself route that are still waiting to complete the job or can't get materials. You get what you pay for and if you try to cut corners it will show. Valley doesn't cut corners, they deliver a great product and great service.
