Say “Hello” to our new tool!

We're excited to announce a new tool in our communications tool-belt at DeckTec. The 2013 spring season has been filled with wet weather and an outstanding response to our Early Bird service offer. We are always looking for ways to improve our customer service, and hope this simple solution will improve communication during your service. Our expert finishing crews are now leaving a sticky note on either your front or patio door after they complete one of the stages of service.

I look forward to keeping our customers up-to-date and continuing the fantastic year we've been having."
