Huge shoutout to Russ at Dektex! He came out last minute when I really needed a hand and got my driveway plowed quickly and professionally. Friendly, reliable, and went above and beyond without hesitation. I couldn’t ask for better service. Highly recommend Russ and Dektex to anyone needing reliable, quality work—top notch all around!

From start to finish, Dektex did a great job on our home deck replacement. The professionalism and courtesy that the crew gave through the building process was great. The finished product is beautiful.

Finished off our deck project with beautiful contrasting wood post cladding (and a new concrete coating from others). Quality workmanship and attention to detail. Could not be happier.

We contracted with DekTex for our deck remodel, which involved complete demo of our old deck and reconstruction using Timbertech vintage decking and rail system. Our new deck turned out fantastic and we are thrilled with the results. Many thanks to Russ and all his crew!

As promised, Dektex delivered the most beautiful deck in August this year. It's unbelievable to finally be able to use that part of our house to grill, to relax, and thanks to a great built-in gate, to play with our babies. Russ is fair and works hard. I'd recommend him to anyone. Pictures include some in-progress, worksite during the day and picked up at end of day, and the final product.
Very happy we went with Dektex! We brought our own design to the table, and Russ not only made our plan a reality but suggested some details, such as the copper roof under the balcony and lighting elements, that improved on our vision. We weren't sure if our idea of a balcony off the master bedroom was realistic, but Dektex made it a reality along with expanding our too-small deck below. Great workmanship - really above and beyond, especially in the framing.
