Projects that are of
no interest to MR. DECK:

  • Structures strictly utilitarian or low budget so as to be predominantly devoid of design.

  • Any project involving repair or maintenance. We start fresh - existing structures are to be eliminated, not modified.

  • Projects on real-estate for sale, intended for market, or occupied by tenants.

  • Reworking existing architectural plans that are of a style or use materials foreign to what is depicted here in my web site.

  • Absolutely anything on a steep hillside or taller than 16 ft.

  • Projects on common ownership property such as a townhouse community.

  • Any project where the owner does any of the work himself.

I do no work where the realtor plays the middleman. If you are a realtor and desire to recommend MR. DECK's services, have your customer (current owner) go to this website and deal with MR. DECK directly. By law, a licensed contractor may not grant payoffs, kickbacks or finder fees to anyone.  MR. DECK also doesn't give free estimates or do appraisals of any kind.

 


MR. DECK CO. involves itself with outdoor structures having
distinctive architectural flair.

Decks must be fabricated on-site and are specified to use our solid-plastic PrimoPlank for the planking on a pressure-treated wood frame.

The company prefabricates all the arbor elements and designer deck components and then ships them to the job site for assembly and erection.

The company offers design work and structural engineering as key aspects of its services.

 

 California Operations

Outside of our local area, projects are first evaluated by looking at digital pictures sent to us by e-mail. If we accept your project for further review, you will be required to pay a $250 up-front service fee for MR. DECK to visit your location and meet with you on-site to complete the evaluation.

During the on-site visit, if you wish to proceed, you will prepay a design-work drawing fee, usually in the range of $300 - $500 per structure. Each design drawing is necessary for doing a cost-evaluation because it helps me figure out what it will take to do the project as designed and it provides me the means for deriving the material portion. It's the material costs upon which our shop labor and overhead costs are based.

To do a cost-estimation, a $250 fee is charged per structure. This fee (only) will be applied as a credit against the purchase price if you elect to have MR. DECK prefabricate the structure or provide a significant proportion of the materials.

If you contract with MR. DECK to oversee your project, you will hire your own local, licensed, qualified contractors to do the construction work. If an arbor is involved and it's local, I will personally monitor the erection of the structure on-site myself. If it's a deck, you will hire your own local licensed deck-contractor to do the work under my supervision. Out of the area, I will oversee either an arbor or deck project remotely via digital email photos that you will furnish periodically at designated progress points.

Note: Because of the large volume of intrusive calls I have gotten requesting free advice or abusive calls from condescending arrogant deck and landscape contractors, I have deleted the Mr. Deck phone number from this website.

I've paid my dues over 25 years learning how to do the things I do – these are my trade secrets and they are not available for public disclosure. I'm not a public information service and I don't do anything for free.

If you want to contact me about your pending project, first send me an email in a respectful and proper manner stating clearly and fully the nature of your project. Pictures would be helpful for my comprehension of your description.
