Deck Building Services in Crystal Lake, IL

“We had a considerable amount of work done on our home by several contractors. Archadeck was, by far, the easiest to work with. Their craftsmanship left no room for complaint, and their daily communication via email kept us updated as to job status.”

“Excellent work. WIthin a day of the original phone call, someone came by. By the next week, they were working. I had a back deck completed. The workers were prompt, friendly and pleasant. They knocked it out in three days, even finishing the last part in the rain. Everything was great.”

“Don't miss the opportunity to work with Deckwerks. I found everyone on the job site to be professional, polite and fully capable. I thoroughly enjoyed planning the project with Ted Benson, although mine was not the largest job, it was treated with respect. My thanks to the shop crew and the carpenters that provided an awesome result.”

“I recently had the pleasure of working with Damian and his team on a deck replacement project, I cannot speak highly enough of the exceptional customer service and quality of work they provided. From the initial consultation, Damian was professional, knowledgeable, and attentive to my needs and concerns. He took the time to listen to my vision for the project and offered valuable suggestions and insights based on his expertise in the field. Throughout the project, Damian and his team were communicative, responsive, and respectful of my time and property.”

“When it came to finding a good composite deck building contractor near Barrington, I was stumped. We are new to the Barrington & Inverness area and did not know many local deck builders or decking contractors nearby that may be able to help with replacing or repairing my crumbling back deck. We moved into an older home in downtown Barrington that we knew had deck repairs to be done from the initial inspections but soon found out that we needed to replace the entire deck after a more thorough deck inspection was done. I didnt really know where to start when it came to replacing our deck or if there were actually contractors that specialized in deck building in Barrington. We knew we liked the idea of maintanence free decking, like the composite decks you see in Home Depot or Lowes (aka Trex decking -which is the brand we ultimately chose), but that was pretty much the extend of our knowledge about decks or building a deck. Luckily, I found Platinum Decking online when searching for a local Barrington deck builder. Tom and Kyle came out for an initial deck inspection and took some time to explain some of the composite decking options with different manufacturers including the difference between Trex, Azek (which is the same as Timbertech now I guess) and other composite decking brands. They were able to show us the difference in costs vs rebuilding a wood deck vs composite deck as well which was super helpful! After meeting with Tom from Platinum decks, we realized half the work in finding a good decking contractor is having the knowledge to determine the good local contractors from the bad. The fact that these guys were ready to spend the energy educating us spoke volumes when it came time make a decision which is one of the big reasons we chose Platinum Decking in Barrington to build our new deck. The entire deck building process was seamless from start to finish. The deck building crews were very friendly and took the time to explain some unforeseen deck ledger issues as soon as they came up. After a few weeks of hard work, we finally had the composite wood deck of our dreams! We are thrilled with the results and 100% recommend using Platinum Decking for any Barrington area homeowners who are looking for a great deck building company nearby!”

“Unequivocal recommendation for Joel. I started the project with someone else and after repeated delays and hassles I gave Joel a call and we got the project moving along quickly. The best thing about Joel is that he stays in close contact and is flexible and responsive to change. Trust and responsiveness were best in class. Joel and his crew were genuinely invested in making sure that I was happy with the end product and he didn't try to nickel and dime me at any point. Another big plus is that all of the guys that work for Joel were friendly and professional, which really mattered to me given how much time they were spending at our place.”

“I hired Curt to build two sets of steps from our lake house in Twin Lakes WI. Overall, our experience with Curt and his company was excellent!!! From the beginning Curt was very responsive to our requests, submitting draft plans and costs, working with village officials, and executing on the project in a timely manner. The steps turned out great and has really expanded the value of our lake house. I would definitely recommend Curt for these types of jobs and other carpentry work. The price was also very reasonable and we felt we received a fair deal for the work that was performed.”

“We have designed for homes with Royal Corinthian columns and balustrades and have known this company for years. Their products are always in some of the most beautiful built homes. Royal is by far in a league of its own with price and quality. They are constantly adding products with great customer service, the owner is easy to reach any time of day. Their portfolio speaks for itself, ranging from unique and custom, to large commercial projects. Their catalog is also a great reference for architects.”

“We've worked with Gasca's for close to 20 years, starting when we were in a single-family home. We first learned of Gasca's when we noticed the French Drain they put in at another home in the neighborhood. They provided several wonderful landscaping enhancements which we loved, from raised planting area next to our driveway; to front stoop repair with a brick walkway (adding a nice curve to the path); to a 6 ft cedar fence in the back of our yard; to buried rain gutter discharge; moving a utility shed and providing landscape accents for it (including more brick); to a stone path in a drainage swale next to the house that couldn't support grass and was often a soggy mess. Until we moved they also provided the lawn care and snow removal. We even had some plumbing and electrical done, though that wasn't a main activity for them at the time. After moving to our condo we didn't have much need for their services and lost contact for several years. Fast forward to 2 years ago, after I became involved with our HOA and began developing some thoughts about some work inside our unit. When I encountered Javier at Home Depot we caught up and I discovered that Gasca's had expanded their areas of work. I was delighted to start having Javier and his crew to help with things like siding; shiplap, drywall & painting; and more electrical. There's little that they can't do. Oh, and we've always felt that their prices were fair & comparable to others. I can't recommend them enough.”
