"Added an extension and new steps on to our deck. Matt does great work. He also works with you to customize the design the way you want it. The whole project went smoothly, good communication and a good price. We’ll be having him back for more projects at our home."

"Did a great job repairing some wet rot we had on our deck! The cost came in quite a bit under other quotes we’d gotten. The work was done fast in just a few hours, and they were able to get us booked on the schedule really fast. Will definitely be reaching back out for any future projects we need help with!"

What I Build

Deck & Fence Contractor in Cedar Rapids

New decks, rebuilds, railings, stairs, and wood privacy fences — measured, built, and finished by me in Cedar Rapids, Marion, Hiawatha, and the surrounding area. Posts and footings set right so the work holds up through Iowa freeze-thaw.

New Deck Building

Composite and treated-lumber decks, pool decks, and wrap-around builds. Framing, footings, and ledger done to hold up for decades, with the boards and layout picked to fit how you use the space.

Deck Repair & Rebuilds

Structural repairs, new joists and posts, board replacement, and full rebuilds when the frame has gone soft. Porch repairs and refreshes too, so the old deck is safe to use again.

Railings, Stairs & Pergolas

Composite and black metal railings, new stairs, and safety upgrades for older decks and front entries. Pergolas and shade structures to make the deck usable through a hot Iowa summer.

Fences & Gates

Wood privacy fences in cedar or treated lumber, custom heights and decorative trim, gate installation and hardware, plus fence repairs and full replacements.

Included on every deck & fence job

  • On-site measurement and assessment
  • Help choosing composite, treated lumber, or cedar
  • Written estimate with no pressure to sign
