The deck looks fantastic!!! We have a very large deck that was originally wood. Johnâ s sons and team worked hard to demolish the old deck and put the new one on, even through the tough heat. The deck looks incredible with the crew paying careful attention to detail and constantly looping us in to get our thoughts on how we wanted it to look. Throughout the process, we had different choices to make with lighting and lattice around the bottom which the crew were able to guide us through these decisions and tell us their recommendations. The crew was so nice and friendly while working. After they finished, they did a final look with us to make sure everything was how we liked. They even wiped down the vinyl railings and hosed any dirt off the deck. It was a great experience-highly recommend them if you are in need of a new deck! Thank you!!!

The level of skill of their crew and professionalism was beyond outstanding. This was a 2 week project in tremendous summer heat. They started at 9 am every day and worked until 4 P.M. they replaced our 30+ year old deck with a magnificent composite deck including demolition and repair of footings and braces as necessary. A large job done on time, on budget and on spec. Hire them for your next deck project!

They were all wonderful. Mr. Nelson kept in contrast communication via text with me so I knew what was going on. They came within two days, did a great job and arrived on time cleaning everything up after they were finished. I would highly recommend this company.

I have a flat roof with a deck above my family room. After 25+ years the roof began to leak. John explained the problem clearly. Roof repair would require removal of the existing deck and railing, then install of new roof material and sealant. Following the roof work, a new deck and railings would be installed . John provided an estimate for the repair. Johnâ s carpenter and roofing crews completed the work efficiently and left the workspace clean and tidy. I appreciate their professionalism and expertise throughout the process. I highly recommend Nelson and Sons.

John and his team were phenomenal to work with! He was very attentive to us, really wanted to understand our vision and requirements, was clear about scope and costs, and committed to delivering a high quality composite deck and outdoor kitchen. This was my family's first major home improvement project and John made the whole process so simple and easy for us. We trust this team and its work!

I had them replace a rotten, 12x12' deck. The job started within the timeframe that we discussed. The actual work from demolition to finished deck was only 2 days with a dumpster getting delivered the day before, and retrieved the day after. I couldn't be happier with the timing, or the quality of work. They even stayed to finish the railing when it started raining. The price was a bit steep, but not getting jerked-around is priceless.

John and his sons replaced our aged wood deck with a new composite deck, complete with vinyl railing and a lattice skirt. Additionally they replaced our aged side steps with composite ones. The work was professionally done and complete within 48 hours start to finish. I am looking forward to many years enjoying the deck!

Nelson and Sons Builders is an outstanding family-run contracting company that provides high-quality services. Their crew comprises skilled and friendly young men who pay attention to details and love their work. I recently had an enclosed deck installed, and the final design exceeded my expectations. The new 18â x15â open â Aâ framed screened-in porch is absolutely beautiful. It features recessed lights in the ceiling that can be dimmed and a fan that operates remotely. John Nelson , owner, is an experienced, knowledgeable, and honest person who listens to and takes care of his clients from start to finish. I highly recommend Nelson and Sons for their excellent and professional services.

John & his sons did an excellent job on converting a wood deck to a new composite deck. I am delighted with the results from start to finish. The guys were prompt, professional & did high quality work. I appreciated that they cleaned up at the end of each work day & were very neat. They were also helpful with advice

Would highly recommend Nelson & Sons for your deck project. We were impressed from the beginning, when John listened to our objectives us and gave us multiple options at various price points to replace our failing deck. Once we decided to proceed with John & his team, we were able to get our deck job started quickly and finished within 2 weeks! John communicated with us at multiple points throughout the process. Pricing was fair and transparent. We have already been enjoying our new deck!
