"I rarely write reviews, but I felt compelled to in this case. I hired Decks by Ziec thinking my existing deck needed some refurbishment, but it quickly became clear it needed a full replacement. What impressed me most — beyond the excellent final result — was how communicative and professional the team was from start to finish.
This was a small job for them (about 10x19), but they treated it with real care and attention to detail. The craftsmanship was top notch — they personalized elements of the deck to suit my space, added a beautiful gazebo, installed lighting on the balusters and stairs, and made sure every detail was clean, well-finished, and functional.
The crew showed up on time, communicated every step of the process, and clearly took pride in their work. The end result exceeded my expectations, and the deck genuinely enhances the look and feel of my home.
Highly recommend them — I’ll be including a few photos so you can see the quality of the work for yourself."

"From the moment we met Peter we knew, Decks by Ziec was who will be building our deck! Peter, Thomas and the whole team are amazing! Watching their work and how fast they are was jaw dropping!! Decks by Ziec took the deck we dreamt of and made it a reality! I will forever recommend this company to any one looking for a deck!"
Joe A., Lanoka Harbor, NJ. March 2025
"Absolutely fantastic work . Super professional and knowledgeable, they made the entire process as easy as possible and we can't wait to use our deck for many years to come ."
Charles, Morganville, NJ. February 2025
"From the time Peter and Thomas came over to measure my property for the precision drawing plan, they are very knowledgeable and made the whole process very easy and stress free. Thomas is kind, honest, reliable and pleasure to deal with. His team is professional and their craftsmanship cannot be beat. We have never worked with a contractor who cared about the finished product as much as we do. Their customer care and attention to detail were excellent. Look no further! Peter from Decks by Ziec is one of the best deck builders in New Jersey. They do beautiful work and I would definitely recommend them."
Jeffrey, Westfield, NJ. February 2025
"Decks by Ziec are true pros! Started off with a very detailed and competitive estimate. Very open to using the materials I was interested in and stated involved while I pursued a variance request with the town which was a lengthy process. They showed up to work on the deck as promised and were complete within the time frame given. The only thing which stopped them from working was the inspection process which was in my town's control. The deck itself turned out beautiful. Exactly the design I had requested. Very impressed with the quality of their work and wouldn't hesitate to recommend them to family and friends."

"Outstanding. We hired Decks by Ziec to replace the traditional wooden railing on our deck with stainless steel cables. We couldn’t be happier with the results. Andrew made multiple suggestions to improve the appearance and structural integrity of the design, then he and his crew built and installed the railing with craftsmanship, attention to detail, and obvious pride in their work. Throughout the entire time they kept the area clean, and were careful, friendly, and professional. The project was completed on time and within budget, and we’ll definitely be using them again for our next one. Highly recommended."

"Decks by Ziec are truly Deck Masters! We called Peter for an estimate and promptly scheduled an appointment to give us an estimate within 2 days. Stretched up our vision for deck around our pool and 2 days later we received drawings along with all the paper work to submit to our Township for approval. Andrew and his crew went above and beyond building the deck! From start to finish they were the upmost professionals and respectful gentleman that I have had the pleasure to do my business with. True craftsmanship at its best as you can see in Pics. Thank you so much for our beautiful deck!"

"Decks by Ziec was by far the best option we could have ever chosen to redo our existing deck. When meeting with Peter initially to discuss our design options, we knew this project was going to be beautiful. Andrew and his crew were beyond professional, punctual every single day and they did more than we could have ever asked for. They were also respectful of the overall property as well: being sure to always clean up after themselves. They truly understood our vision and made sure it could come to life! These guys really are the real deal."

We couldn’t be happier with the deck that Andrew built for us. He was awesome to work with and really has an artist’s eye for this type of construction. We met with him before our project started and talked through design elements where we worked together to come up with our perfect deck. He had tons of ideas and ended up designing a beautiful custom privacy wall for us. Once the project started (earlier than expected) he would ask questions along the way about our design preferences - which we so appreciated - but we often found ourselves asking him for his opinion because he has such a good eye. We are so happy with every choice and feel so great about our new and improved space. He and Jacob were a great, tidy crew, and we absolutely love the finished project!

"Let me start by saying, I am extremely picky and particular because I know exactly what I want. I met with many different decking contractors and nobody made me feel more confident in their work like Peter did. The deck exceeded all my expectations and came out absolutely beautiful. The price was very reasonable and worth every penny. The quality of the work and the deck is amazing. I HIGHLY HIGHLY HIGHLY RECOMMEND. We are obsessed. Thank you so much Peter, Brian and Eddie ! You guys are awesome."

"We hired them to do a deck around our new pool. They were the only ones to even suggest a semi circular deck to fit the aesthetic (we didn’t even know it was possible). Awesome, hard worrying guys. They even started earlier than expected since our permits were approved quickly! Came everyday, communication was very good and the workmanship is fantastic. They weren’t the cheapest, but you certainly don’t want to skimp on something you and your loved ones will be using for years to come. Very happy with the final result and would recommend the company to anyone seeking quality and professionalism."

OUTSTANDING experience with Decks by Ziec! We are thrilled with the way our deck turned out. Andrew and his team were a joy to work with, start to finish...even before we formally signed a contract, we felt their commitment to their work and genuine care for their customers! They listened to our vision and designed a custom deck to maximize our space and keep on budget. The craftsmanship is beautiful and even the town inspector commented on the impeccable job. I could go on and on and on, but the photos speak for themselves...if you are looking for a deck contractor, we HIGHLY recommend Decks by Ziec without hesitation. Feel free to reach out to me directly if you want a reference - I'd go to bat for these guys any day!

Very pleased with the work done by Andrew and his team at Decks by Ziec. We had a great experience and absolutely love the final product! Andrew redesigned our deck to fit our space (see before and after pics). Within two days of getting our permit they began the demolition. The job was completed with 3 weeks including inspections. His team was professional, meticulous, and hardworking. They are master craftsmen with a eye for detail. We would HIGHLY recommend them for any deck work!

Decks by Ziec did an amazing job on our deck, we are so happy it!! Meticulous work with so much attention to detail! We had a job that wasn’t very straightforward and they had quick solutions that made everything look seamless. They went above and beyond, and worked really quickly and efficiently. We chose them for the job purely on reviews and meeting with Andrew (who did all the work himself plus his team) and talking through the whole process. Would 110% recommend them to any friends or family. Thank you so much!!

We wanted to redo our deck with a jacuzzi and a pergola, and Tomas and Peter did a fantastic job of planning the design and executing it! Tomas would be there with Brian every day for nearly three weeks, working really hard, and the end result was nothing short of magnificent!

My wife and I always wanted a deck in our backyard. We decided to hire Decks by Ziec to design it and build it.
It was a great choice. From the time Peter and Thomas came over to measure the property, design the layout, and throughout the construction of the deck, their professionalism, organization and knowledge stood out.
Thomas with the assistance of Brian, built a deck which exceeded all of our expectations. We never imagined having a deck as beautiful and well built like the deck built by Decks by Ziec.
Besides doing an outstanding work, Thomas scheduled all the necessary inspections during the various stages of the project, a clear sign of their professionalism.
Any questions we had were answered promptly with clarity to our satisfaction, which created an environment of trust.
Thank you Thomas and Brian for an amazing job.

We hired Decks by Ziec (locally owned here in Woodbridge Proper) to strip our deck down to the structure, then refurbish it, add a pergola, and move the stairs. We wanted wood, not Trex or vinyl. They did a great job, especially with dismantling the old boards carefully, keeping track of the nails so they weren't littered over our back yard. They built an access door for underneath. Yes, this is their busy season so if you book now you might have to wait a couple of months, but it was good work.

We decided to put a deck made of composite partially around our above ground pool. We got three quotes. Decks by Ziec was cheaper than the rest, and we liked Peter's plan and, with his help, we chose a style, color and design. Tomas, who came out to build the deck, was prompt, answered any questions we had and finish on time as promised. The town required specific criteria to meet code. Thomas was able to custom build stairs and the gate with a mix of materials to match the deck and also meet the stringent code. The whole process from start to finish was great and I would hire them again.

I had a great experience with Decks By Ziec. Tomas was the primary person we dealt with during the project and he was a pleasure to deal with! Tomas is kind, professional and reliable. I would definitely recommend Decks by Ziec. The owner made it all very easy from the beginning. They do beautiful work!

We couldn’t be happier with our deck.
From the initial consult over the summer Peter sketched a deck that fit our backyard and style that we were looking for.
We enjoyed every minute of this process and that’s very rare when it comes to huge projects that can be filled with doubts and uncertainty.
Tomas and his crew showed up everyday, even after a huge snowstorm and began working on our dream deck. Every measurement and cut is precise and the attention to details really can be felt throughout our new outdoor living space. Any new ideas or concerns were always met with a smile from Tomas and reassurance that this is going to be a beautiful deck. They were right.
From the lighted stairs to the deck illuminating at night it’s a picturesque sight.
Thank you for making our home even more beautiful and treating our home with care during this process.

After getting several outrageous quotes from local companies, we finally found Decks by Ziec. Peter and Tomas made us feel comfortable and confident from the moment they showed up. Unlike many contractors we have dealt with in the past, they kept us informed throughout the entire process. Their attention to detail is unmatched. Thank you for our beautiful deck.

I recently had a deck remodeled by Decks By Ziec and I cannot say enough positive things about the experience. The new deck is absolutely gorgeous and so well constructed, it looks as if it will last forever. Peter was so helpful in coming up with ideas to make the deck everything I could have asked for. He was also a pleasure to do business with. He was reliable, gave me a fair price, and finished the project in a very short period of time (exactly as he said) and is just overall a really nice guy. I would very highly recommend this company. If I could give them more stars I would!

Its exceedingly rare to find a contractor that combines top tier professionalism with superior craftsmanship at an outstanding value. Andrew and his team delivered all promises and exceeded all expectations in the design and construction of our new deck. We couldn't be happier with his work as we enjoy our backyard now more than ever.

You will not find a better company to do your deck project! They do the work themselves. They do not hire crews. They are meticulous and do extra detail work that isn't even in the contract. They have great pride in what they do and do not finish until you are completely satisfied with the work! Call Decks by Ziec!

These guys are the best in the deck business! It is a really daunting task to find a good contractor period. I also knew that Trex was extremely pricey, so I knew that we had to do some research to find the right one. We were referred to Ziec by another contractor we worked with, who had work done by them. They are extremely responsive. We got an estimate within days of contacting them. I just had a good feeling about their work based on seeing their portfolio of pictures and meeting with them. I have to say our Trex porch and back steps look absolutely amazing. I cannot stop looking at it and have gotten so many compliments already. We are so excited to have maintenance free steps and porch. The Ziec team is super efficient, on time, do spectacular/detailed work and their prices are very reasonable. Our project started on time as we scheduled and was finished as we anticipated. It looks like night and day (compared to before). I would not hesitate to recommend Ziec. I would love to use them again in the future for other projects.

We absolutely love the deck built by Andrew and Thomas. Thorough professional work by Ziec. They are very responsive when your needs and respond back with any queries almost immediately!! They were in and our in 2 weeks with our entire deck incl. lights and customized trims. We did reach out to a couple of other deck builders, but no one could come even close to their work product and quality of service. Their prices are competitive as well. Would very highly recommend them for your deck needs. Andrew and Thomas, thanks very much for giving a wonderful deck to enjoy our summers for years to come.

Recently Peter, his brother Andrew and their team from "Decks by Ziec" designed and completed our deck for the backyard. Right from the beginning, Peter understood our needs and came up with an interesting and innovative design. From thereon, he and the team have been very responsive, attentive and prompt in their services. The team completed the work as scheduled, while being very flexible with us during the entire deck building process and did a perfect job. The attention to detail to ensure a high quality finish and making the right recommendations for materials and lights – went a long way to ensure we came out extremely satisfied with their work and to post this endorsement and recommending them to our friends.

Don't look any further, Decks By Ziec are the BEST. At completion, bottom line, hands down, Peter and his team far exceeded my expectations. Upon his arrival, his genuine warmness, knowledge and easy to work with personality gave me the assurance that he may be the choice for us. After 3 hours of drawing, measuring and asking us what we would like, we were beyond confident that he would build the ideal 3-level deck for us. ...He was never pushy and had the utmost patience in answering my many questions. Throughout the 7-week project, if he had a thought or idea to better the original design, he would stop and ask my opinion. His attention and perfection to detail was astounding. Each and everyday, punctually arriving at 8am, the day began with a pleasant good morning, turned their radio on and the day began. Throughout the day I would hear singing, which led me to believe that he thoroughly enjoyed what he was doing. I might add, that his craftsmanship far exceeded his singing. Upon completion of this massive project, they spent several hours power washing the deck. I could not believe how clean he left my deck. At jobs end, I was sorry to see them go. So, with all this being said, waste no time looking for another contractor, Peter Ziec and his team are the REAL deal --

Upon completion of this massive project, they spent several hours power washing the deck. I could not believe how clean he left my deck. At jobs end, I was sorry to see them go. So, with all this being said, waste no time looking for another contractor, Peter Ziec and his team are the REAL deal --

We had a deck installed at the back of the house. What a workmanship!!! Or should I say ART!!! Anybody who comes to my house is impressed of the quality, the precision and the beauty! Peter is professional, honest, punctual, and easy to work with. He has ideas, and seems to have great taste. Very reasonable prices for what you get. He is very busy; but worth the wait and every penny! Thank you Peter!!!

Peter and his team did an excellent job on our deck project. My experience with Peter from the time he came to my home for the estimate to the completion of the job had been pleasant. Peter was easy to work with and a true craftsman in deck building. Peter took pride in his work and he was the guy who built the deck from start to finish. He was also willing to work with the inspector and home owner to make necessary changes along the process. Peter completed the project on schedule. I highly recommend Decks by Ziec to others because I know Peter will personally stand behind his work and care about customer satisfaction.

Decks by Ziec are the BEST.... My experience with brothers Peter and Andrew has been 100% positive. They are both true professionals and craftsman, and their attention to detail is amazing. They return phone calls, emails and texts in a timely fashion --- this is rare in today's world. Peter is passionate about his job and cares about the customer. At the end of the day, he wants you happy. Peter and his team will make sure you are thrilled with the end result. Bottom Line === if you are looking to build a new deck or in need of repairs, you would be foolish not to call Decks by Ziec. Call Peter on his cell at 908-275-7075 for ideas and to get an estimate. You can thank me later.

We knew we wanted to work with Peter upon first meeting with him. In addition to being genial and easy to talk to, his knowledge and expertise impressed us. It was clear that he was truly a designer who could help guide our vision towards the right deck for our space. He proposed ideas but was extremely patient and never pushy. We felt confident during the design process that he knew what we wanted and would execute it exactly as we had discussed…and he did not let us down. Peter was very communicative throughout the project and was even able to begin our deck earlier than the anticipated start date. His professionalism did not waiver from the start to the finish of the project and we now have a beautifully crafted deck. Peter even built a custom storage cabinet that fits perfectly with our deck. Our experience with Decks By Ziec was nothing but positive and we would not hesitate to work with Peter again in the future.

expectations! That is how we felt when we saw the finished deck that Peter and Andrew Ziec designed and constructed for our home. The brothers are both skilled perfectionists who love their work. They take pride and joy in what they do and aim to please. Our experience with Decks By Ziec has been positive. They are dependable, punctual, organized, work efficiently, and communicate well. To ensure high standards of work quality and precision, Peter and Andrew do not subcontract. Everyone who has come by to see the deck has expressed similar enthusiastic comments ----Wow! What a fantastic deck!! Even the building inspector complimented their construction techniques .If you are looking for uniqueness in deck design with an emphasis on fine workmanship, give Decks By Ziec a call. You will be glad you did...

We used Decks by Ziec to refurbish, expand and customize our existing deck. We are thrilled! Our deck and pergola is beautiful, just ask the neighbors . Peter and his team communicated continually throughout the project, were prompt, worked hard, and are highly talented. Peter has great ideas and was happy to listen to ours. We highly recommend them for your next deck.

"If you are in need of a decking contractor there is no one better than Decks by Ziec. Peter and his team take special care in providing the finest workmanship, best customer care and personal attention. They did a composite TREX deck for me complete with lighting which is spectacular at night as well as during the day. Do yourself a favor - call them first and last. You won't be disappointed!" -Larry L.

From the initial meeting with Peter to review my vision for a roof covered Ipe deck as part of a backyard transformation, I was confident that he would do a great job. With Decks by Ziec, you get a small company with a hands-on owner with whom you will deal directly in every step of the process. Staying in contact was easy as he always answers his phone – no hiding behind voicemail or office staff. And his low overhead approach helps to keep the cost down. Ultimately, Peter and his team were able to make my vision a reality that my family will enjoy for years to come.

Good contractors are hard to come by these days. They promise the world but always fall short. This was not the case with Decks By Ziec. Peter and his crew were truly hard workers that you can depend on. They started each day punctually and put in long hours to get the project completed on time. If any obstacles came up, Peter was always upfront with me. I would recommend Peter and his crew anytime. I'm sure you won't regret it.

The Ziec brothers are truly the best there is and a pleasure to work with AND they are reasonably priced!!! You could not ask for a better combination. Andrew was the primary brother assigned to our job. He is a craftsman and extremely creative. Also, he is the nicest person ever, is very hard working and does not miss a day! We are extremely pleased with the deck they just built for us. Every detail was beyond our expectations. I can’t say enough good things about the Ziec brothers. We would definitely use them again. Thank you again for the wonderful deck you built for us!!!

We are very pleased with the work that Peter did for us. He was very patient during the approval process. When we were finally ready, he was able to fit us in and completed the deck within the two week time frame as promised. During the construction period he would accommodate our little requests here and there to tweak the design to our satisfaction. Thank you Peter for the wonderful job that you did. We are so happy with our new deck that we are out there everyday despite this chilly spring weather.

I recently contracted with Peter and Andrew Ziec of Decks by Ziec for construction of a small wraparound deck made of ipe, also known as Brazilian walnut. Ipe is a deep and darkly-colored, beautifully-grained, dense tropical hardwood. Another name for ipe is ironwood, a reference to the challenging nature of this material to work with and the expert handling and treatment it requires.
Peter approached the project with great enthusiasm. Design space in the yard was limited so Peter's suggestions for the deck layout and placement had to be novel and creative. His design was inspired.
Peter's brother, Andrew, a master craftsman in his own right, did the actual construction. His expertise, attention to detail, courteous, friendly and outgoing manner made the whole process a pleasure from start to finish. And the final product is a joy to behold and a home improvement to be proud of. As a veteran of a number of previous home improvement projects, there are few I would characterize as positive. My experience with Decks by Ziec was extraordinary. The Ziec brothers are artisans and masters of their trade, qualities in notoriously short supply in the contracting community.

How many people have called contractors and never received a call back? How many contractors are too busy to take the time to come out and give an estimate and then tell you all the things that they "can't do" instead of what they can do.
Having found Decks by Ziec by chance on the internet, we want to tell anyone that is looking for a great deck to look no further than Peter and his brother Andrew of Decks by Ziec.
Peter's "can do" attitude and his enthusiasm with his creations is a pleasure to experience. We started out with an "idea" of what we wanted to do, and Peter treated our project like it was his own house or his own child that needed to be molded.
His vision was extraordinary and if you choose Peter to build your deck, i recommend you trust his insights and creativity in his work.
From the first time that we met with him, his follow through on returning an "estimate inquiry" to his visit to our home on a Sunday, to fulfilling his start time commitment and end time completion, we have never hired a more dedicated and committed individual.
In the American society today where there are laments about lack of follow through, work ethic and truthfulness in dealing with contractors and tradesman, it was so refreshing to deal with Peter and his brother. They exemplified to us what it must have been like years ago with tradesman who came to the United States and built this great country with their hard labor work ethic.
Peter and his brother exhibit all of the things that many people in our society lack today. His word is as good as gold and his work ethic and talent in his creations is superb.
I would recommend Peter and his brother Andrew of Deck's by Ziec to anyone looking for a beautiful addition to their homes. Trust their vision and building expertise. You will not be disappointed.

"The Ziec brothers did a fantastic job. They built a beautiful deck in a very short period of time. We're happy to recommend them."
"From start to finish, Decks by Ziec did a great job! Peter's Co-Worker took down our 9' x 10' wood deck and built a new 14' x 18'.5" deck with Trex material. He arrived promptly every day, provided expert craftsmanship and closed out each day with clean-up of all material. We could not be happier with our new deck. We would recommend Decks by Ziec to all of our family and friends."

We have never had to search for a contractor to do home improvements in our home. The time came to where we wanted to have a deck rebuilt and a deck added onto our pool. After a long search, we will NEVER have to look for another contractor again because we will always call Peter. I have heard and seen first hand that most contractors are next to impossible to get on the phone or even talk to. Peter was always in close contact when I needed to ask a question. When we first met him he spent 1 hour in the rain measuring and visualizing how our backyard could look. He listened to our ideas and augmented them to create the beautiful deck that we never thought we could afford. He is meticulous about his details. He even purchased a Trex heating machine because the company he used before didn't seem to meet his high standards. He is not just a contractor but truly an artist.
He treats your project as if it was his own home and family. He and his brother work extremely well together. I know this sounds like we are being overly positive but it really was an excellent experience. When ever I read reviews and they never say anything negative, I am always leery of believing that these are actually clients. So here it is, he is very punctual and arrives early and stays late - he almost seemed like part of our family. His enthusiasm towards his work is obvious to anyone that spends a few minutes with him. His stamp of approval means it is truly the best piece of artwork that money can buy!
If this is not something that you are looking for then Peter is not the man for you

Peter from Decks By Ziec was extremely helpful in helping us design our custom deck. The material is top notch and the entire job was completed within a weeks time. Peter was able to renovate our old wooden deck and transform it into a new space that is completely unrecognizable. He was very professional and gave us plenty of referrals from his previous work. He actually didn't want us to sign a contract with him until we viewed other jobs he had done and spoke with his previous customers. I would refer any of my friends and family to Decks By Ziec. We were very happy with the outcome.

Look no further! Peter, from Decks by Ziec is one of the best deck builders in the state of New Jersey. I normally don’t write reviews but I felt obligated to considering how great my project turned out. We found Peter on the internet after searching for several months and seeing many of his jobs. We started with a custom deck that Peter and
I designed together. It has every feature I wanted and was built to perfection with difficult curves and perfect symmetry. Peter even made 2 huge gates below for unlimited storage in a curved area of the deck which was a feat in itself. We even added a section for my dog to do his thing and matched it perfectly to the deck along with a dog ramp for a senior dog. Peter doesn’t skimp out on any material either. You will get a solid structure that looks incredible with all the fine details necessary to bring it over the top. After seeing such quality work we decided to hire Peter to build our Pavilion. Again Peter and I put out heads together and designed it with all the features I wanted. You can really appreciate his passion for perfection as he becomes as excited about the project as you are. He truly care about his work and making his customers happy and that reflects in his work. When there were restrictions to some of our ideas Peter showed us why and often came up with a better solution. The Pavilion is almost complete and it is a great looking custom building exactly as we wanted it. You can’t go wrong with Decks by Ziec if you want to give him your designs or just let the master do his work. I also want to add that Peter surrounds himself with other professionals just like himself. If he recommends someone you can bet they will do great work as well. Peter’s brother, Andrew, is a great craftsman himself and will make any of your ideas become a reality. These guys are hardworking, trustworthy, and dedicated to the job. They both show incredible patience and will explain each facet of the job as it gets completed. They will never leave you hangin’. We were so pleased that we even spoke with the manufacturer of the material “Trex” and suggested that they recommend Decks by Ziec to anyone in the NJ area. Rest assured that if you bring them aboard you will be happy and have a deck that may just last a lifetime. I can’t say enough about this company. They are worth the wait!

My husband and I were very excited to start our search for the
right person to build us a deck.
After interviewing a few people it was very clear to us that we wanted
Peter to design and build for us. We could have had anyone build us a deck but Peter and AJ built us an amazing piece of artwork that we are in awe of. His vision and craftsmanship exceeds all others in his field. Not only are they talented but they are dependable, extremely pleasant, on time and very considerate. We are already looking forward to the day when we can work with Peter and his team again. I would highly recommend Peter and I am happy to have put my faith and trust in his vision. He transformed the back of our home that was bland and unattractive and made it grand and majestic. He will continue to amaze us with his work!

Peter is an excellent craftsman who takes pride in every project he takes on. He created our beautiful deck as if he were building
a deck for his friends, not his clients. The whole process was very easy and stress free from the first precision drawing, to picking out the materials with
the right color combinations for the deck, railing, spindles, post, trim, lights, built-in bench and a customized staircase. We could not be any happier
with the outcome and we have been enjoying our deck everyday since it was done being built! We would gladly recommend Peter and A.J. for any project in a heartbeat. Thank you once again!

From the initial meeting through project completion, Peter demonstrated a keen sense of design inspiration, professionalism and punctuality. While
the estimated project start date was over 4 months from the date of the initial estimate, we were hopeful that it would ultimately be
rewarding. The work started exactly when Peter said it would. Now that the project is complete, we couldn't be more pleased with the
outcome. In this case, the old adage "the best things in life are worth waiting for" rings true. Peter values his customers and his
reputation more than any other contractor we've worked with, and he has "a guy" for everything. Need siding work? Need masonry work? Need a
dumpster? Rest assured, Peter has a guy for that. As far as we're concerned, he is a rock star in the world of deck building and his level of
customer service is unmatched. Highly Recommended

From the initial meeting through project completion, Peter demonstrated a keen sense of design inspiration, professionalism and punctuality. While
the estimated project start date was over 4 months from the date of the initial estimate, we were hopeful that it would ultimately be
rewarding. The work started exactly when Peter said it would. Now that the project is complete, we couldn't be more pleased with the
outcome. In this case, the old adage "the best things in life are worth waiting for" rings true. Peter values his customers and his

Having Decks by Ziec was one of the best experiences in home improvements we have ever encountered. They were professional, reliable, creative and understood our vision and made it happen. The quality of work was beyond our expectations. Perfection is their ultimate goal. We can honestly say we have never worked with a company that cared as much about the finished product as Decks By Ziec did.

Decks By Ziec built a beautiful deck for us. They gave us a good price right up front - better than all other bidders. DBZ drew up an expert architectural
blueprint and then worked tirelessly and quickly to get the job done, even through the coldest and snowiest days. The end result is remarkable and demonstrates DBZ's engineering and building expertise. On top of that, DBZ was always fair, helpful and diligent. The best in the business.

Decks by Ziec installed an elevated 2nd story Deck to my home. The professional work ethic of the staff was a testament to the quality work they
do. They were very patient when it came to me understanding every step of the design, materials and installation process. We are very please
with our beautiful deck and get compliments all the time. Other contractors are amazed at the workmanship. I highly recommend Decks by Ziec.

Thank you, Peter and A.J., for giving us the most beautiful deck in the neighborhood! We’ve had several requests for your cell phone number from neighbors who want to replace and update their decks with the same style and craftsmanship you brought to our home. Once the design was decided, on a collaborative basis, your ability to work to plan with little involvement by us was a relief. You came early every morning and worked steadily until the job was done, on time and within budget. We found the creativity you brought was way above that offered by other contractors we were considering. The new outdoor living space of this deck has added a wonderful expansion to our home. Thank you and good luck as you go forward. We feel lucky to have found you!

Peter has just finished our porch and railings. Our original railings were wrought iron and had to be painted every three years. Since the railings had curves, we could not find any place that could duplicate our original railing curves until Peter.
Judge for yourself -see how beautiful it looks.

I am truly grateful to Peter and his workers for giving me the dream room and deck I always wanted. I was looking for a custom three season room and deck, not the typical cookie cutter three season rooms and decks. Peter delivered and then some. He is very talented and detail oriented. He takes pride in his work and it show; he treats the project like it's his own. He is reliable and committed. He takes responsibility and doesn't use any subcontractor. He took the time to speak with us and explain the job. He gave us some suggestions, that I would have never thought of, comes with experience and knowing your job. He uses quality products and is an excellent contractor; I would not recommend anyone but Decks By Ziec. His designs are amazing; you would not be disappointed. Peter is not only one of the best contractors I know but also a wonderful person. I would consider Him a friend.

We would not hesitate to recommend Decks by Ziec. They are professional, were here when they said they would be, did the work cleanly, and did the job for a good price. Not knowing exactly what colors and options, he has a good idea for ideas. He was flexible to meet with us at times that fit our schedule. He took care of the permits and inspections and everything passed with flying colors. The deck is absolutely beautiful and we can't say enough for his workmanship! Thanks Peter!

Brad and I just wanted to write you a quick email to let you know how pleased we are with our new deck addition. We were impressed with the quality of your work and how quickly you completed our job. You were always on time, very personable, left our home clean every night before you left, scheduled and completed all the inspections on your own, and most of all we loved the design you created for our addition. We look forward to working with you next summer when we replace the next two sections of our deck.

We used Peter from Decks by Ziec to build our 16’x18’ Trex deck. We loved the fact that he specializes in decks and patios and we weren’t going to be hiring just some random general contractor. Also out of the three people we had come out and give an estimate he was the lowest in price. When Peter came to give me an estimate he spent over an hour discussing different ideas and the layout of the deck, as if it was his own home. Peter told us he was doing a job four blocks from my house and kept saying “go over there and look at the job, you can see my work”. That right there told us he took great pride in his craftsmanship, and we were soon to find that out. When the project started we liked the fact that he would actually pick up his cell phone when I called him with any questions, or at least called me right back. I was very surprised with how neat and tidy they kept the job site. Although they were returning the next morning, at the end of each day all the tools and materials were in one pile and covered with a tarp. Peter was very hands on throughout the whole job, and very easy to work with. We truly love our Trex deck, and couldn’t be happier with the way it came out. I even told Peter when he is less busy we would like for him to build a three season room for us.

I just have to say how often does a contractor show the same interest in a project after it is finished?! Peter almost seemed compulsive during and after the deck was completed to make sure I was happy not only with the quality of the work done but about things like cleanup. I also didn't expect to see some "finishing touches" which enhanced the appearance of the deck in ways I just couldn't discover on my own. I would have confidence hiring DBZ for other outdoor projects as well. Good man.

beautiful job. Anyone looking to have a deck built that's the company to go with. I found them to be honest and reliable and the job site was kept neat and tidy but most of all the job was done on time and on budget.
