Dan did a great job expanding my front and back decks. He recommended expanding the front deck as it would be more welcoming than the current deck. Dan recommended going out 8 or 10 feet on the back deck and we chose 8 feet. Both decks look great. Dan is in constant touch throughout the process.

Dan and his crew recently replaced our large aging wooden deck with Timber Tech (a composite product). The workmanship was excellent and our deck looks wonderful. I'm just sorry its on the verge of getting colder and we will have to wait until next spring to enjoy it more. Working with Dan was easy and without stress. He is straightforward and knowledgeable. His price is reasonable. He gets things done quickly. We committed one day and work started on the next day. I recommend him and his crew without reservation.

I used Elite Deck for a rebuild of my deck in the Tiana Shores area of Southampton Town. Dan and his crew did a fantastic job and I received a lot of positive comments from my neighbors. He was very good on keeping me in the loop on progress. On a couple of items I added I thought the price was very fair. I would highly recommend Dan and his company for any deck rebuilds or new decks.

Dan of Elite Decks + Home Improvement and his Team did a wonderful job at our home in Sag Harbor, NY, replacing our old deck and porch with beautiful Mahogany wood. It looks unbelievably beautiful. Our neighbors have already smiled at us more than usual and praised the work. Even my landscaper said Wow to us and asked who performed the work ! His price is fair for the high craftsmanship and materials used on both our projects. The guys were fast, under two weeks and done. Very neat. All old materials removed quickly from our property. I highly recommend Dan and Elite Decks + Home Improvement ! Rosemary A.

The work was first rate. Done very promptly and Danâ  s schedule estimates were very accurate. Everything was cleaned up and disposed of afterwards. Couldnâ  t be more pleased. 2200 square foot wooden deck replaced with composite and surrounding wooden fence replaced with composite fence.

We would highly recommend Elite Decks. Dan, the owner, is really pleasant and very responsive, really top flight experience, and we love our new Mahogany deck he did. He also replaced our front entrance and porch with Mahogany wood and both projects are gorgeous. We've had several neighbors across the street come over to say how nice it is to open there front door and see our gorgeous deck ! Recently, our landscaping contractor also said he loves our deck and front porch and asked who did the work ! Of course we told him to contact Elite Decks and gave him Dan's name and contact number. We will use Elite Decks again as it's a full home renovation company. The crew is super neat too. All discarded materials are quickly removed from our home site. They worked real fast too. Amazed how both jobs done expertly and in less than two weeks !

Dan was very helpful in helping us evaluate our options in upgrading our old worn out wood deck into composite and gave an on point estimate for the project. He was prompt in his responses to our inquiries and updated us with pictures as we were not on site at all times. We are very pleased with the final product and got numerous compliments from our guests.

Elite Custom Decks did a wonderful job of removing an old deck and railing and replacing it. Our small front porch, stairs, and railing were also redone. I cannot speak highly enough about the quality of work that was done. Dan Leach always returned my calls in a timely manner. He made excellent suggestions and gave me good advice whenever I asked. He did not hesitate to come to the house to discuss the plans with my son-in-law. His employees were always on time and extremely skilled. Both my deck and front porch (including railings) look great. The quality of work is excellent.

We;ve worked with many contractors in the Hamptons who were dishonest, overpriced and unresponsive. Elite Decks, and especially Dan Leach, were the oppostie. They were amazing! They were responsive, met with us as many times as we needed to discuss and review the project and its progress, and, importantly, they did exquisite work. They were clean, efficient, and quality-oriented. I cannot say that for the other contractors that I have worked with. Additionally, they were resourcesful and observant when it came to noticing things that needed addressing that we had not anticipated. I'd be happy to provide a reference.

So happy with the work done by Elite. They responded to my request for a repair quote within 24 hours. Came to my home at the appointed time. The work was completed for the exact quoted price (which was far less than other quotes I had received). The work was completed on schedule. Quality workmanship, on time, no "additional costs", professional staff. What more could you ask for...nothing! Highly recommend.

Dan resurfaced our deck with beautiful cedar. Job was done in three days with a professional crew. Price was quite reasonable. Dan is very attentive to his projects and I highly recommend him. In addition, he subsequently power washed our entire house and lower roof peaks. The house looks brand new! Again, he is reasonably priced!

Dan and his team did a fantastic job replacing our front and side porches and a very large rear deck with integrated lighting. Dan was very quick to get going and finish the project - and was great at communicating progress along the way. He was also very responsive to special requests (like fixing the gutter drainage). Would definitely work with Elite Decks on other projects in the future.

What an amazing job Dan Leach and his team did! We feel like we have a new home. The initial project entailed reconstructing a 35 year old rear deck that had structural issues as well as a large area to repair/replace. We didnâ t want to replace the whole deck and Dan agreed, after checking to ensure that the overall structure was worth saving. Most contractors just want to rip out and replace a deck which would have exponentially increased the cost. Dan was able to envision a design improvement, creating stadium stairs, which made the deck more functional and flow better. Since we saw the quality of the work being performed, we decided to expand the project. The rest of the house needed to be stained and areas needed repair including a drain which they were able to recreate the architectural design of the structure. Danâ s team, with Carlos leading, are superb craftsmen who take pride in their work and do a meticulous job. They are reliable, on time and pleasant to work with. The cost was very reasonable considering we kept added additional work. We highly recommend Dan and his team and would definitely hire them again.

Great crew of workers. Were always there early and stayed late. They were hardworking and accommodating. Owner is a good guy and responsive to texts and voicemails. I never had to track him down. Not only did they replace and expand my deck with composite wood versus cedar, but we designed and built a custom fence, which helped create my own little paradise. They also power washed my home, replaced rotting cedar, filled all the holes in the cedar and painted, Looks like a new house. And yes, I think his price was fair.

Had a cedar deck replaced with composite. Price was fair; owner very responsive to any questions I had. Most important to me is that commitments regarding time frames, work process & progress fully met. And, workmanship was excellent. At end of project, a family problem arose and Dan had his staff create a solution quickly and at a reasonable price. Would definitely recommend Elite.

We looked at several different companies to redo our front porch and back deck. Elite Decks had a very competitive quote, was very easy to work with and we would definitely use them again should we need more work done in the future. From the beginning they provided us with quotes using various materials and provided lots of guidance but ultimately respected our choices on materials used and style. The team worked very efficiently and quickly based on our needs. Dan was also very communicative during the entire process and was receptive to any changes to adjustments we wanted to make. They made sure we were happy with the final result and were very accommodating as well as pleasant to work with. We are very happy with the quality of our new deck and porch.

My experience with Dan W. Leach of ELITE DECKS & HOME IMPROVEMENT was totally positive. He performed the work while I was out of town. I observed the progress through photo's and a friend who visited the job site periodically. The work was done to perfection, he left the job site clean and removed all debris. I recommend him highly and would use him again for future projects. Sincerely yours, Frank J. C, Architect
