Why Work With a Local Decking Company?

You know you want a new deck built onto your home, you can see it in your head, the only question is who should you have build it? Sure you could try to do it yourself, or you could try to hire a large national construction company, but we’re here today to argue that you should work with a local Maryland decking company.

1. 1. Work With Someone Personable

By working with a local Maryland decking company, you’re getting the level of expertise you would get from a national builder, but with an increased level of customer service. Whereas you may just be a drop in a bucket to a large builder, to a local builder you’re an important client. That means they’ll have the time and energy necessary to devote to your project. With a large company, you just can’t get the same level of personal service. Call their line and you may be on hold for several hours, but a call to a local builder will put you in touch with a real person immediately.

1. 2. Check With Local References

Nowadays, you can find reviews for nearly every company, large or small, on sites like Google or Angie’s List, but how accurate are these reviews? Oftentimes, companies will “plant” their own reviews on these sites to improve the perception of their company. When you choose to work with a local Maryland deck construction company, you can find actual local previous customers and call them. These reviews are much more reliable and should go a lot further to help you understand what kind of company you’re dealing with.

1. 3. Local Deck Construction Companies Know Maryland

One of the most frequently overlooked aspects of deck construction is the permit process. Every state has its own unique construction permit requirements, and each requirement must be met exactly. National companies are forced to spread themselves out and may not know the intricacies of each state’s permit process. However, when you work with a local Maryland deck construction company, you know you’re working with someone who works exclusively in this state and who knows the permit process like the back of their hand.
