About Deck Builders of Greensboro

The Premise: Deck Buyers Deserve the Numbers

The deck industry runs on information asymmetry. Homeowners can't see under their own decks, don't know what a footing should cost, and can't tell a structural screw from a deck nail at a glance — and a certain kind of contractor makes a living off exactly that gap. Our whole operating model is closing it. The price ranges are published. The bad-contractor checklist is free, works on any bidder, and we invite you to run it on us. When a repair beats a rebuild, or pine beats composite for your timeline, we say so — because the customer who trusts the "no" comes back for the "yes," and tells the neighbors.

How Every Job Runs

• A real phone call first. Five minutes gets you a ballpark from our published ranges and an honest read on whether the project makes sense. No visit required for a rough number.
• A free on-site estimate. We measure, look at the clay, the drainage, and the house connection, and talk through options — then leave. The quote follows in writing.
• An itemized quote. Footings, framing, decking, railing, permit, haul-away — every line, its own number. Compare it against anyone; that's what it's for.
• Permits and inspections, always. City of Greensboro or Guilford County, filed before work starts. The inspector's sign-off is your independent proof the work is right — we wouldn't build without it and neither should anyone else.
• Insured crews, documentation on request. Certificate of insurance available the day you ask, which is exactly what we'd tell you to demand from any contractor in your backyard.

What We Ask of You

Hold us to the standard on our own website. Check our bid against our published ranges. Ask us the two ledger questions. Request the insurance certificate. Ask about licensing on any project approaching North Carolina's $40,000 general-contractor threshold. A contractor who resents informed questions is showing you something — we built the site around inviting them.
