“Removed an Old Second Story Wood Deck and Replaced It With New Composite Deck I have used contractors to do work around the house before but I must admit that Decks for Life have been the most professional, capable, honest people I have ever dealt with. They are extremely capable, responsive, knowledgeable, meticulous and hard working. I was extremely satisfied with the pricing, the excellent work and the professionalism throughout the deck project and highly recommend them.”

Highlights
“Deck Demolition and New Build I feel compelled to write a review for Decks for Life as our experience with Iaroslav was exceptional, and we are very happy to highly recommend him. He was extremely professional from our first meeting to our final one, and it is evident how seriously he takes his work and the trust his clients put in him. He has years of experience which allows him to offer great advice and he did not pressure us at all over several months of design and planning. His price was very fair and his workmanship and attention to detail was very much admired and appreciated. He completely cleaned up each day and took all debris and garbage with him. Our final product is very beautiful, solidly designed and will last a long time. We look forward to sharing a beer with him and his wonderful assistant Vlad whenever they have the time!”
“Deck Building I don't write reviews often but I do when I have an exceptional experience. From the beginning, Iaroslav made the entire process of building our deck incredibly smooth and stress-free. His quote was competitive; he was honest, and he gave us great advice throughout while remaining open to our ideas and preferences. Communication and timelines were clear which we really appreciated. When it came to building our deck, Iaroslav and his team were meticulous and clearly skilled in their craft. He went above and beyond to make sure our aluminum privacy screen matched our railing, even at no extra cost to us, which really demonstrated how much he took pride in his work and how much he cared that we have a beautiful deck to enjoy for years to come. After the deck was completed, they left the work area clean and even pressure washed the deck for us. All in all, an exceptional experience from beginning to end. Don't hesitate to call Iaroslav and Decks for Life - we're so happy we did!”
Detailed reviews
Deck Build Eric knows the science and the art of deck building. 2 qualities Eric brings to his work, precision and master class skill. I’m very pleased with the Dream deck he built for us. I’m also very pleased with the rain trough system he installed. Everything professionally done and even ahead of timeline. I recommend Decks for Life for any deck project you have, no matter what build size.
Backyard Deck I cannot say enough good things about Eric and his company. He is extremely reliable. His work is excellent. I have never seen two harder working men than he and his co worker. Despite the heat, Eric remained true to his nature; meticulous, treating each project as if he were building for himself. Highly, highly recommended.
Deck Building We asked 3 contractors for pricing, Decks for Life were smack in the middle for pricing. We're glad we chose to go with them. They are professional, attentive and will bend over backwards to ensure your satisfaction. We were so happy with their work on our back deck, that we've asked them to make our front porch as well. Highly recommended!

Worth checking yourself
Only a few public reviews are shown. Ask for recent references you can contact.
Their public evidence comes from a single source. Look them up on another site before deciding.
No credentials are shown here and the business has not claimed this profile. Ask to see certificates and insurance directly.
Trade licensing in Canada is set by each province or territory. Electrical, gas and plumbing are licensed trades almost everywhere (for example ESA for electrical and TSSA for gas in Ontario), so check your provincial regulator that the contractor is certified for the work before you hire.
A construction lien is a real risk: in every province an unpaid subcontractor or supplier can register a lien against your home even if you already paid the main contractor. Hold back the statutory amount (commonly around 10%) and get signed lien waivers as you pay.
Look for consistent reviews across several named sources, not one polished profile.
