When a deck goes wrong, your name is on the recommendation
Clients often get pointed to a crew that did a great remodel, a roof or the landscaping. Decks aren't that crew's everyday work, and when the deck has to be redone, the client pays twice and remembers who sent them.
We only build decks, pergolas and deck railings. That's the whole company.
What your client gets
Questions go straight to Michael, the owner. Licensed California contractor with general liability insurance. We don't disappear halfway through the job.
How we work with you
You design it, we build it. We don't do design drawings or renderings for these projects.
How we handle your design
Show us the plan early. We'll give you a contractor's read on materials and how it builds, flag possible structural limits and go over options with you. Where calculations or sign-off on the structure are needed, a licensed engineer makes the final call, and we build to the approved design after the required permits.

Budget ranges for your client
Our current ranges, so the number you give a client lines up with the estimate they get later. Prices are for a built and finished deck on level ground.
| Material | New deck, per sq ft | Replacing an old deck, per sq ft |
|---|---|---|
| Pressure-treated wood | $40–55 | $45–60 |
| Redwood | $55–67 | $57–69 |
| Composite(Trex, TimberTech AZEK, Eva-Last, Deckorators, Fiberon) | $50–75 | $50–80 |
| Hardwood | $65–80 | $70–85 |
The deck price covers the frame, boards and fasteners; for a replacement it also covers taking down the old deck. Delivery, hauling away the old deck, stairs, railings and a permit if the project needs one are separate lines on the estimate. A slope, a raised deck or tight access raises the per sq ft price. The permit is a separate service for $2,500, and the city's fees are paid to the city directly.
Pergolas are priced by footprint and design, so we range them once we see the size.
These are ranges, not a quote. The exact price comes in the written estimate after Michael sees the site.

"We hired MS Construction and Services for a big redwood deck and pergola project in Los Altos. It was a pretty complex job … They helped us pick the stain color, and honestly it came out perfect."

"MS Construction and Services delivered an exceptional job on our hardwood deck and pergola complete rebuild! Their impeccable workmanship, without any cutting corners, resulted in absolutely beautiful results. Everything was done exactly as promised. … The entire project, including demolition, commenced on time and was completed in just under three weeks."

"For a residential project in the Almaden area of San Jose, I brought in MS Construction and Services for a substantial exterior scope: about 480 sq. ft. of Eva-Last Apex Plus composite decking, a roughly 250 sq. ft. pergola, and about 54 linear feet of aluminum picket railing. … That is what I value in a good subcontractor: a crew that takes responsibility for its work and gives the general contractor confidence that their part of the project is in dependable hands."

Referral fee and terms
We're open to paying a referral fee for clients you introduce, where the rules that apply to you and to us allow it. Before anything is agreed, we check that it works for both sides. Then we agree the terms with each partner individually and put them in writing.
If you're a licensed architect, California rules require any such fee to be disclosed in writing to everyone involved and agreed to in writing by all of them.
On the referral side, your part is the introduction, with your client's OK. Selling the job, the pricing, the estimate and the contract stay between us and the client.
Thanks. Michael will contact your client, and we'll text you once we've reached them.
