Decksouth built my patio in 2017. Great job but now 9 years later had some soil erosion. They did an amazing repair job and called it warranty! Two workers digging, forming, and pouring concrete! These people are amazing. Thanks Decksouth great job! Hal

Decksouth is the best company we have ever worked with on a home project. Every point from planning to the final walkthrough was executed flawlessly. They have no equal in their business.

John and @decksouth are hands down the best, most professional, most honest contractors, and even business i have ever delt with. Outside of the amazing work they did for us, which hands down is the best, you can also tell the work culture is the top in the business. Alot of times when the boss moves on because he is starting another project, his team would start slacking, start to be a little unprofessional and makes mistakes. With Decksouth, the two main guys, Miguel and Chris, were not just professional, they were personal. They were patient with my children, and definitely patient with my wife, and that is a strong feat in itself. They got there earlier than they told us and worked nearly to 6 or 7 pm daily then took the time to clean up all trash that may have been there from the work that day. I dont just recommend, I strongly urge everyone to use them, and if you dont, that will be your first mistake of the entire build.

Appreciate you trusting us with your project.

Decksouth made our dreams a reality. We had a fairly unsafe existing deck and a backyard that had seen better days. We now have an outdoor living space that we can use year round and a backyard that is built for fun for our entire family. Our daughter is currently planning her birthday party for our backyard instead of Main Event because of the fun she's having in the space.

I can’t say enough good things about Decksouth and the incredible job they did transforming our backyard.
Our project was completed in two phases, which allowed us to finance the work at a comfortable pace. Phase 1 involved a complete tear‑down of our old deck and the construction of a brand‑new, 100% maintenance‑free deck and railing system. They also installed a full water management system that created a completely dry and usable under‑deck space. The finished area includes beautiful stained tongue‑and‑groove wood ceilings, lighting, and ceiling fans, turning what used to be wasted space into a great place to relax and entertain.
About a year later we completed Phase 2, which added an incredible entertainment bar under the deck with beverage and wine fridges, an ice maker, and storage. Decksouth also renovated our existing pool and added a spa, truly turning the space into a backyard oasis.
Additional work included stacked stone retaining walls, board‑and‑batten trim to conceal the under‑deck structure, landscape lighting, new sod and irrigation, and restoration of our aluminum fencing and gates.
Everything was completed on time and on budget. There were no surprises—any additional work was clearly discussed and quoted before moving forward.
Just as important, the crews were outstanding. Every team member who worked at our home was courteous, professional, and the kind of person you feel comfortable having around your family.
If you are considering a deck or backyard project, I highly recommend Decksouth. Their craftsmanship, communication, and professionalism are truly top‑notch.

Outstanding deck builder. We could have repaired our old rotting unsafe wooden deck but wisely chose to have DS build us a new maintenance free composite deck with lights and a big concrete slab beneath it.
Most professional crew and company. Built to present code and kudos to the Cherokee county inspector that came at various stages of construction.

Most amazing experience working with DeckSouth! They worked tirelessly to give us our dream deck that we did not know was even imaginable. Outdoor grilling station..hot tub corner…most amazing outdoor party bar…second level dining. From perfect 3D renderings…artistic changes to accommodate our requests…absolute quality workmanship delivering perfection. And even after the job is done, follow ups to be sure we are doing well and no problems. Lastly, the people are true rockstars! We could not have asked for nicer, more genuine people to work with us on this project. I encourage you to check them out if you are considering an outdoor project!!

John and his team are simply the guys you want to do business with. When considering adding something permanent to your home, you want it done by people you can trust will do a quality job. Stated simply - they do what they say they are going to do - which is rare for businesses these days.

Decksouth recently completed our deck project, and we are very happy with the results. This is our second deck built by Decksouth. This time we upgraded from wood to composite decking. John Lea (owner) recommended that we paint our pergola and railing support posts to match the trim on our house. In addition, we added black powder coated aluminum railings with cocktail composite top which looks amazing!
We were very impressed with the quality of their workmanship, timeliness, and their overall professionalism.
Decksouth also has a great on-line communication tool making it very easy to communicate any questions or changes with Bianney (customer service coordinator). Bianney also updated us each day on work crew schedule.
I highly recommend Decksouth for those looking to start a deck project.

We had an old deck redone , a new deck constructed for a recessed hot tub, new walkway and patio installed with pavers.
Pictures are attached. When we had a question or problem that needed resolved John was available and made sure everything was completed correctly. There were issues during construction and everything was resolved.
We love the new decks and patio.
