At OnDeck we're not concerned with selling you something that you don't want we want to deliver your vision but we want to deliver at the absolute best value. That doesn't mean using high-grade products or low-grade products, it doesn't mean using plastic versus stainless steel or composite versus wood. It really doesn't matter.

THE EVOLUTION OF OUR TEAM OVER THE LAST YEARS
WHAT OUR CLIENTS ARE SAYING
I was referred to OnDeck by a neighbor as we were both looking for a reliable group to help us tackle separate deck projects. Overall, I couldn't be happier with my experience. From my initial site visit through the repeat trips back to the house before the project kickoff to ensure we were all on the same page, I've been incredibly impressed with my interaction with Phil, Santo and the team. They are responsive, timely, professional, incredibly knowledgeable and reliable. I was pleased to learn they do more than deck work as I would certainly consider using them for several other projects. From my experience and interaction with the OnDeck team, I would highly refer them to anyone looking to complete some house projects.
