My wife and I learned about Hard Decks through the Google app.
We took a chance with them and got them out for a quote and were very pleased after getting two other quotes. We talked about our decking options and how to keep cost within our budget.
The crew is very detailed in their work and I was very impressed at how diligent they work. Always willing to answer any questions we had.
We are so happy that we went with them and I would recommend them for anyone looking to have any kind of deck added, improved or replaced.
They responded to phone calls and email quickly. It looks great and we are completely satisfied. Thank you Jayme and Crew! Professional work. Jim & Jan Rockford IL
In 2023, Hard Decks installed our beautiful new deck. Recently, we faced some weather damage to one of our deck lights.
Without hesitation, we reached out to Jayme and he promptly responded. He swiftly ordered the replacement part and installed it in record time.
We really appreciate Hard Decks exceptional customer service and we highly recommend Hard Decks to anyone in need of quality deck installation and maintenance.
We had an unfortunate accident with a tree falling and destroying our deck.
Jayme was incredibly easy to work with from the start. He was able to get over and start working on a plan to remove the old one and build a new composite deck within a few days.
He listened to our requests, and offered a couple different options. We never felt like we were pushed into more than we wanted or wanted to spend.
They started the project within a reasonable amount of time, and the quality was exactly what we expected.
I would highly recommend reaching out to Hard Decks if you are in the market for building or replacing your deck.
Jayme, Andrew and the Hard Decks team were very professional.
They completed our deck on time and were able make changes on the spot to suit our needs and applied credits where needed based on the new plan.
They also cleaned up after themselves and we are very pleased with our new deck. I would definitely recommend them.

Special thanks out to one and all members of the Hard Decks crew and all the people working behind the scenes to make our deck replacement absolutely beautiful.
The crew showed up every day with a plan and worked it flawlessly. Andy kept us informed of daily progress and made sure the work site was cleaned up and ready for the next day of work.
Highly recommend this business to anyone interested in deck replacement.
Hard Decks did a beautiful job replacing our deck as well as helping to replace the sliding doors.
They were prompt, professional, courteous, and in general a great pleasure to work with.
Left a very clean job site at the end of each day and when the work was complete. Overall a wonderful experience.
