    I left a great review the day of install but now I have to take it back I had my deck installed by them after they told me that they did hotels, and that the deck was one of the best quality you could put I had issues with water damage on it, not from me from the rain so they came within two months of installing to re-oil. They told me I have to re-oil it every six month which I had no problem having done Then after they came in, they re-oiled it after less then 3 months and then The dew started doing water spots everywhere within a month of re-oil (meaning 4 months since the instal, give or take) and I've been trying to deal with that since August and they keep giving me The runaround like oh we are busy, or we were on vacation, or the owner is out of the country. I've been trying to deal with this problem and now they are saying that I must've done something wrong and I didn't follow the oil treatment when I've just been trying to get my problem fixed since the beginning I paid $15,000 for that deck and it looks like shit And now I have no other choice then to file for a lawsuit STAY AWAY

    The most professional, knowledgeable, and truly passionate team I've ever met. From start to finish, the entire process was seamless. The owners are incredibly friendly and took the time to understand my vision, ensuring every detail was perfect. It's rare to find a company that consistently delivers top-notch service and impeccable craftsmanship, but LA Decks exceeded all my expectations. I couldn't be happier with the results and highly recommend them!!

    Deck is 10 years old and just as fabulous as day 1. Thank you LA Decks

    Professional, accessible, hard-working, detail oriented and quality focused are the words I use to describe LA Decks. You will be grateful for partnering with them to create stunning work. We have had our Ipe deck for almost 10 years; and it looks just as it did when LA Decks built it. It is great to be able to trust LA Decks to deliver quality services and products consistently.

    New railing
    CHRIS W.

    I had LA Decks come out to replace my redwood railing with a powder coated aluminum railing for easier maintenance and to add steps where a section of railing was to be removed. Tal came out for the estimate and to give suggestions. He was very professional and showed up on time. Victor, the owner showed up on construction days to monitor the job. We couldn't be happier with LA Decks and the new railing and steps.

    Finished deck, see foundation in previous deck pic. Note: they cut out chunk of concrete and fixed, called it "gratis".

    Deck replacement. Deck resides on a slope, 36" at high point. The deck was completed and more or less met expectations, process to reach completion was somewhat less. The following documents part of my experience, depending on your impressions you may or may not choose this provider. The contract specified completion in two months, actual completion was in five. The project followed Murphy's Law: everything that could go wrong, did. Also, "Every shortcut has a price usually greater than the reward." There were a series of missteps, most of which can be attributed to the project manager: Nick. Additionally, Nick has a casual relationship with truth, declares items as gratis that should be included, refused to deduct cost of eliminated feature, and claims completion prematurely. I believe the workers were good, the only oddity was when they poured cement into footings from a height of several feet. The website is excellent, unfortunately it doesn't appear the company has all described capability. Recommendations- Check dates on reviews. When reference check, ask lots of questions. I initially asked references whether they were satisfied, later details emerged. One reference stated that it was a good company but there had been management changes, quality declined, prices escalated. L.A. Decks was not the least expensive, they were about 20% higher than other estimates. Know exactly what you want. Get permits, you want the work to conform to the building codes and you want inspections. Check licenses, go to CSLB, (verify the name on the license is your contractor). Check insurance, verify ALL workers are covered, beware if it says EXEMPT. Consider having the contract reviewed prior to signing, mine had ambiguity. Include a schedule in the contract. Request prior notification of their presence. Do not make any payment before contractually due. Document communications. Use cameras to oversee worksite. My experience began with Project Manager Nick's contention that a permit was unnecessary, he contended the job was a repair, not requiring a permit. I did not want to begin prior to March 1, 2025 when funds would be available but Nick pressured for a start date of February 24. They demolished the prior structure, but not the foundation even though the new structure would only be partially utilizing, construction began. The new deck framework has treated wood on dirt, while not expressly against code, many advise against. Nick repeatedly pressured for payment prior to March 1 and later prior to a phase completions. Funds were transferred March 1. Construction continued including wooden railing. Nick queried for color, I wanted it to match the house trim, brown, (included the manufacturer and color code). It was painted khaki. Nick claimed it was the color I specified. Received a stop work order from the city March 4, 2025, the city charged: construction without a permit. Also, received a threat of a mechanics lean from Ganahl; L.A. Decks claimed that was an automatic email sent to all clients. L.A. Decks didn't have a business license for the city. It's a requirement to conduct business in many cities. Nick thinks I should supply, it is a deductible business expense and is valid for any work the entire calendar year, not a specific job. We needed architectural and engineering plans. An additional cost to me, Nick hired firms (not in house as one might expect given their website). They drew diagrams of the existing structure which went to an engineer, the plans were submitted to city planning followed by building and safety. The plans were approved May 14, 2025. The city was very fast at turn around. Nick claimed the holdup was the engineer. Nick requested that I pull the permit because "it would be easier." First inspection was framework, inspector stated: the structure did not match the plans, fail. They added additional footings, second inspection for framework and foundation, second fail. Significant additional work. Licensed contractors are supposed to build to code, why was so much additional work required? For over three months I was unable to exit my house via the rear doors. June 23, they put down sheathing so I could walk on the deck. Unfortunately, at this point, they were nearly ready to cover the framework. They also put sheathing on the steps, the workers stepped through it. Although I never commented on it, for most of the build a growing pile of refuse resided in the yard. There were also piles of dirt and debris everywhere, I picked up daily. Prior to the third inspection, Nick arranged for the engineer to do a "Structural Observation". June 25, 2025, the inspection, contractor tried to show the inspector the report, inspector was not interested. This inspection was cursory, passed. Cover material arrived that day, work towards completion began June 26, 2025. July 3, cover material complete. July 24, deck complete. Not my first foray into remodeling, all had issues, this one was unique.

    IPE Brazilian wood deck .
    Roger B.

    Almost a year after installation of my IPE Brazilian wood deck the planks are off sized during installation and now they are shrinking and show big gaps . I have followed instructions on oiling and have reached out to this company about this and they are brushing me off. In my contract it stated there would be a supervisor /owner on property everyday . He was there on the first day and last day. They left on vacation and left me with day laborers Shameful company . I retract every post prior to this .

His team were efficient and punctual, finishing within the time they stated. The quality of work was excellent as well, it's like night and day with the new deck. The pricing is also very fair, not selling us more than needed but what is required for a sturdy and waterproof deck. Overall I highly recommend Mike and his team if you need a new deck repaired and waterproofed.

    All Weather Construction - 5 Stars…read more We didn't end up using All Weather Construction for our balcony waterproofing project -- but in hindsight, I probably would have chosen them if I hadn't missed their proposal (it ended up in my junk inbox and I found it too late). Mike was professional, experienced, and thorough. His quote was detailed and all-inclusive -- covering drains, slope correction, flashing, and stucco -- with no surprises or "TBD" add-ons. It was clear and straightforward, which I really appreciated after dealing with unexpected change orders from the company we ultimately hired. Even though we didn't work with All Weather this time, I wanted to leave a review because their approach stood out in the best way. I'd absolutely consider them for future projects and recommend others take their bid seriously.

Throughout the entire process, Mike was very professional and the level of expertise he exhibited was obvious. Before Mike, I had met with 3 other contractors to compare services and quotes but what sealed the deal for me was the 3D render service Mike offered. It was affordable and it would be free if you end up going with MDM for your remodel. Mike was able to get the renderings to me very quickly and made adjustments whenever we wanted to change something. Seeing the details of the renderings really brought what we were envisioning to life and helped with the design process. Fast forward to beginning of demo/construction, Mike's employees were impressively fast and efficient at their jobs, but what really impressed me was how clean they kept our property after each day of work. And that stated true throughout the entire process of our 7 month renovation. During construction, if there were any last minute changes, Mike would always try to cater to our needs whenever possible. Even if subcontractors made mistakes with anything, Mike would make sure it is fixed and perfect right away. Keep in mind, you can't rely on Mike for everything (as much as you might want to). You really do have to do your research (in terms of design, finishing materials, sourcing those materials, and getting them delivered on time) and know exactly what you want and how you want it, that way, Mike can plan and put into action what needs to be done. After this entire process, we are extremely happy we got this project completed with MDM. What really sets them apart is the quality of work, dependability, and the great people that work for MDM. Shoutout to Mario! They really respected our home and were very considerate of us during construction. Even after everything was finished, they guaranteed that they would come back and fix anything that needed fixing. Cannot recommend them enough if you want to improve or build your new home!

Shawn was easy to reach, responsive, and great to work with throughout the project. The crew showed up on time, kept things clean, and finished everything in under 5 weeks.

Definitely recommend MDM Remodeling if you're doing a bathroom remodel in Los Angeles we'll be using them again.

We also needed someone to paint the entire house, including the eaves, wood windows, trim, and exterior doors. As the project progressed, we also added on removing a window, re-siding the back of our house (a long wall without stucco), installing a new back door, and replacing our old garage door with a brand new one. Through all these changes, Daniel and sons rolled with the punches and delivered an absolutely gorgeous end product. They even consulted on paint colors, and I could not be more satisfied with the results. As a bonus, Daniel and his sons are just the nicest people you'll meet (and you will meet ALL four sons). I'm originally from the Midwest, and they reminded me of everyone I know from back home - friendly, honest, and always up for a chat.

Both James and Max were great when I reached out with questions, they were very responsive. A big thank you to his awesome team who helped build the deck and showed up everyday with a smile. One of the reason why I went with MG Construction was because Michael's eagle eye was able to notice certain detail of the job that that the other contractors who provided bids overlooked.
