I met with four different deck builders, and let me tell you — by the end, I felt like I was on a bad reality show called “Who Wants to Build My Deck?” ?
Then along came John Franek, the hero of my story. This guy is the real deal — professional, reliable, affordable, and honest (yes, all at once… rare, I know). While the others were still “thinking about it,” John had already sent me a legit quote and a plan that made sense. Efficiency level: legendary. ?
His crew showed up, worked like deck-building ninjas, and totally crushed it. The final result? Way beyond anything we imagined — I half expected HGTV to show up and film the reveal.

Franek (Joe) is literally the best. I’ve built two homes (currently on my third) and I’ve had them do multiple projects (2 decks and 2 patios) and he’s currently doing a 3rd patio/outdoor bbq/fire pit/pergola for me. He doesn’t feed you a line of BS, he’s straight forward, affordable and does excellent work. While some deck companies will quote you 20-30k he’ll come in realistically at 12-15k. I’ve referred him to all my friends and anyone in my community who needs a deck/patio. You won’t regret making the call/connection.

We don't know why anybody would use anyone else but John and crew. Never thought we would get jazzed about concrete. Their job is literally a piece of art. His business is like a "well-oiled" machine. John showed up days ahead to form, equipment was dropped off, people showed up, did their jobs excellently, left no mess. Now we know why elders sit in their garages and watch traffic go by!
