Our team is not only licensed across various regions but also certified in installing specific brands of composite decking, aluminum railings, and steel frames. This expertise ensures that your deck is built correctly, preserving warranties and maximizing durability. We also utilize advanced techniques, such as g-tape for ledger attachments, to provide an extra layer of water protection, preventing structural damage.
From ensuring proper ledger flashing to calculating accurate pier sizing and framing spans, DW Elite Decks handles every detail with precision. Many contractors overlook critical aspects like spacing for synthetic decking, leading to expansion and buckling in extreme temperatures.

Making the wrong choice when selecting a deck contractor can lead to costly mistakes, unnecessary stress, and potential safety hazards. The most expensive deck is often the one that needs to be repaired or replaced due to poor workmanship or improper installation. Common issues include inadequate inspections and unclosed building permits, leaving homeowners vulnerable to violations and additional expenses.
These mistakes can escalate further with improper licensing. Contractors might be licensed in one jurisdiction but not another, causing delays and potential legal issues. Even worse, improperly installed materials can void warranties, leaving you with no recourse if something goes wrong. These challenges highlight the importance of thorough vetting when selecting a contractor.
