I'm interested in any suggestions you have for a contractor to rebuild a deck. I live near Inman Sq. on the 3rd floor. Last year, we had to dismantle an existing deck due to the previous owner's faulty construction, and now we'd like to rebuild it. If you have had good experiences, please share. Thanks.

The guys working there are fully knowledgeable, very helpful, and decent human beings. I definitely recommend working with them.

I think composite + hideaway is the way to go if you're going to be at your place for a while. As for the rails, the composite really looked and felt better, but wasn't within our budget (the cost of rails was the most surprising thing about the project to me). I don't mind the vinyl rails matched up with the composite decking at all.
