Deck Builders – Use Tufdek Vinyl Decking

Have you decided it’s time to install a new vinyl membrane on your deck, patio, roof deck, or pool surround? How do you go about finding the right deck builders for the job? Tufdek has pulled together the top recommendations for choosing a professional deck builder to help you with your project.

Importance of Professional Installation

Hiring a professional is very important. For one, it ensures that your vinyl membrane is installed correctly to maintain waterproof protection. Second, it provides the opportunity for a thorough review of your deck to correct any problems that might have arisen during construction. Finally, a professional can help make improvements to your deck for long-term viability, as well as to increase the value of your home.

Tip: Is something about your deck just not right? Mention it to your contractor – they’ll probably be able to help make a fix or correction.

Hiring a Deck Contractor

Word-of-mouth referrals are a great way to get a first-hand recommendation for a deck remodel, but it’s not the only way to find a competent deck professional. If you don’t have friends or family members who have recently completed a deck makeover project, look online for local deck installers, and thoroughly check out reviews on sources like Yelp, Google+, etc. Make sure the contractor you choose has examples of finished projects and don’t be shy about asking to speak to a previous customer about their experience.

When interviewing a deck builder to install your vinyl membrane, find out the following:

• Year in business
• Three to five references you can verify
• Insurance and licensing to work on the project
• Association membership (such as NADRA)
• Estimated start/finish dates
• Hours worked daily (consider whether these might be an inconvenience to your neighbours)
• Days worked (weekdays/weekends)
• Ability to work overtime to finish the project (and associated cost)
• Decking Materials used, whether higher-quality/longer-lasting materials can be chosen
• Estimated cost

Cost should really be your very last decision factor; in reality, you want to ensure that you are choosing a reliable deck remodeler to install your vinyl membrane to ensure that the finished project is going to last. Also, check online reviews. While it’s not uncommon for an installer to have a handful of negative reviews (it’s hard to please some people) avoid anyone with a regular track record of unfinished jobs, lateness, or requesting more money after the job is started.
