I’ve been searching for someone to help build a deck in my backyard but it’s hard to know who’s actually reliable. There are so many companies online, and the reviews don’t always seem real. How do you know who to trust with a project like this? Any tips would be great.

Yeah, I’ve seen a ton of different listings too, it can definitely get overwhelming.

Finding a trustworthy deck builder isn’t easy when you're staring at a dozen websites that all look the same. The first thing I did was check for proper licensing and examples of past work. I ended up finding https://oakshs.ca/deck-builders/ through a local Facebook group recommendation, and it really helped seeing actual photos and client feedback. After that, I called a few people who had worked with them to get firsthand impressions. What set them apart was their transparency—they gave a realistic timeline and budget, and everything stayed on track. I also made sure to sign a detailed contract with milestones, which gave me peace of mind. If you're not sure where to start, talk to your neighbors or community forums. Word-of-mouth really helps weed out the unreliable ones.
