Small Deck & Stairs

From start to finish, the whole process was as we hoped for. My wife and I are very satisfied with the end result. The process was not complicated, it began with a site visit and discussion of what we wanted. Geoff Aucoin (owner) provided a drawing, his crew (not outsourced)arrived on time, built the deck to specifications (which exceeded minimum code)and the finished product looks great!

They will be at the top of the list when we go forward on the next deck project.

Hi Daniel,

Thanks for your kind review as well as the slideshow and words on your blog. I know Ibrahim (builder) enjoyed seeing the slideshow.

Enjoy the Fall season and feel free to contact me once you have an idea of what your thinking for the next project.

Take care!

New Deck

John Whitehead and his crew are fantastic guys and did a great job on building my deck in North York. It's not a huge deck but is on two levels/storeys joined by stairs. John's quote was not the cheapest, but not the most expensive either. John was very responsive to my request for a quote and came to my house at times that were convenient for me. His quote was very detailed and outlined the measurements, type of material everywhere (from PT structure, cedar skirting and rails, composite deck boards, etc.) Most of the other quotes did not go into that level of detail. The quote also came with diagrams along with measurements so there were no surprises - a nice touch especially considering no one else's quote provided me with that level of information and detail. Lastly, when John himself came by, each time he was super respectful to me, my home (taking off his shoes when entering) and family. He takes the time, even during the quote process to explain exactly what they were going to, that the grass was likely to get damaged, the garbage and dirt for first while, etc so there were absolutely no surprises when they started to the end.

His crew came in the mornings and left late in the afternoons. I never once needed to be home, although I would come home from work earlier just to watch the construction of my new deck.

I would highly recommend John Whitehead and his skilled carpenters anytime to anyone. The finishing touches are excellent and despite the very small premium compared to other quotes, you get complete ease of mind, a responsive contractor, detailed quote and backed by a quality brand parent company (Hickory Dickory deck) and warranty. Why would you consider choosing someone else? Just give John a call and you will see.

Build deck

My husband and I are very happy with the deck that Hickory Dickory Decks built for us. Geoff our salesman was very pleasant to work with and helped us make decisions on the design. Even though we changed the design many times, he never made us feel rushed and told us not to worry about how long it took to come to a decision.

The deck is extremely well constructed and we are very pleased with the workmanship. We did have some design issues during the build but Geoff resolved every issue to our complete satisfaction.

Deck with pergola

We have an amazing deck (with pergola) and are enjoying our 4th year with it. We had contacted 2-3 different companies for quotes and what made us choose Hickory Dickory Decks was Geoff Aucoin. He demonstrated much patience going over detail after detail; from the 1st question to the 50th, his helpfulness remained the same. The work was done with meticulous detail, and the workers were very nice to deal with. Once the project was nearly over, there was one detail that we didn’t like. There were no questions asked, no arguing – they simply re-did it to our satisfaction. We are also very grateful to the company for their “win $10,000 contest” as we were the 1st winners! We will happily show off our deck to anyone who is interested and will recommend Hickory Dickory Decks.

Hi Carmelle,

I can't believe it has been almost 3 years since your deck was installed. No doubt your still enjoying it and I will have to come back soon to look at installing the ShadeFX awning you were asking about. Thanks for the kind review. See you soon.

Deck Design and Construction

Adam was professional and paid extra attention to detail. He listened to what we wanted and came up with a spectacular customized design. After initial consultation, he gave us a cost estimate, pricing with an itemized list. He took the time to email us different versions at different costs. He worked with our budget and recommended design ideas that would put our deck above the rest but also give the most bang for the buck. He came to our house a 2nd time to measure our yard with string and nails to show the exact dimensions of the deck so we could see how it would look in our yard and make adjustments if we wanted. He came to our house a 3rd time to drive us around our neighbourhood to look at 4 decks he built in our area so that we can decide between Cedar and Composite. They made sure we had all the information needed to make the decision. His team (Matthew and Devin) were exceptional craftsman and paid attention to the little details showing true pride in workmanship. Even during the building they would stop and ask us if we had any questions. Everyday they cleaned up after themselves and did not leave a mess in the yard. Adam and his team rock! I definitely recommend their services.

Browse the photo galleries and have a clear idea of what you want. Get at least 3 different quotes to compare. The material, labour, design details and extra accessories such as benches, planter boxes, railings will all factor into the final cost. Make sure you are comparing apples to apples.

Hey Tod,

I went for a bike ride past your place and took a look and the deck looks great.

Sure I'll see you sometime this summer.

Deck in backyard

From start to finish, our dealings with Geoff and Ibrahim were exceptional. Planning the design and agreeing on the final design was an enjoyable process. They listened to our questions and were patient in making the several changes to the design that we requested. Even once construction was underway we greatly appreciated that they continued to welcome our minor changes. Everything was done on time and as promised. We appreciate being kept abreast of the progress and that they exceeded our high expectations. The quality of work and attention to detail was exceptional. Every wood cut was done to perfection. Angles are perfect. The final product looks like a work of art and not simply a deck, including privacy glass surrounding the hot tub, the cedar privacy lattice, cedar rail, and benches made of composite. We are very happy with the composite used on the floor surfaces, and the contrast between composite and cedar is very nice.
Unquestionably, Ibrahim is an “artist with wood” and a master deck builder.
