QUOTES GOOD FOR ONE YEAR

Outback Deck is veteran-owned and community trusted. We have earned the trust of homeowners throughout Cobb, Cherokee, and North Fulton counties, as evidenced by our numerous accolades and glowing reviews.

“We just had Outback do our complete deck teardown and rebuild (adding a covered patio), and we are extremely satisfied with how it turned out! The attention to the details and oversight of the construction teams took extra burden off of us. I can't thank Outback Deck enough for driving the project to completion so smoothly.”

Ross H.

“Outback was great to work with. They were transparent and kept us well-informed from the first sales meeting to completion of the project. The deck and patio they constructed are beautiful. The materials and work are high quality, and well in excess of any building codes. With the composite decking and aluminum railing, we can look forward to many years of enjoyment with little to no maintenance.”

Nick F.

“From start to finish, Outback Deck's attention to detail and eagerness to ensure our happiness was foremost. The crew was on time or early every day and the project manager, was always available to help with any questions or let me know where we stood with the schedule. We love our new deck!”

Lane R.

“Absolutely wonderful company to work with!!! The beautiful covered deck they made for us is just stunning. They use the finest craftsmen to complete their projects and their work is good value for the money. I recommend this company fully and enthusiastically.”

Janet H.

“The footings and bracing of the deck support are what impressed us most. BP did an excellent proposal, JR provide excellent follow through and CM kept the project on task. After watching the construction of our new deck, step by step, we could see the extra measures Outback Deck puts in their workmanship. If we ever have an earthquake, we will run to the deck for the safe place.”
