Q: I’ve just signed a contract with Archadeck of Columbus. How long will it take to build my project?
It depends on the size and complexity of your project, the weather, and the workload of your local office. Normally, projects can be turned around faster in the fall and winter (as opposed to the spring, which is our busiest season). Your local office should be able to give you an approximate start and finish date, subject to weather conditions and materials availability.

Q: Are you insured?
Yes, local Archadeck locations carry at least one million dollars of general liability insurance, and their carpentry crews are covered by worker’s compensation insurance.
Q: Can I get an exact price before I decide to hire Archadeck?
Definitely. First a representative will meet with you for an initial consultation, where we’ll discuss your needs, personal preferences, and budget. After that complimentary meeting, we can decide if it makes sense to proceed to the next step.
Q: What type of warranty do you offer?
We offer two separate warranties: 1) Our own warranty provides you with protection against defects in materials and workmanship for 12 months; defects in structural fitness for 60 months; and passes through all manufacturer warranties (the most frequent being the lifetime warranty provided by treated wood manufacturers). 2) A third-party guarantee backs our warranty. This guarantee is made by The National Guarantee Corporation and assures your work is completed as specified and provides 2-year warranty coverage.
Q: Do you have a written contract that I will sign?
Yes. We supply you with a detailed contract to protect you from any misunderstandings.
Q: Do you sell your designs or plans so I can build it myself?
No, all of our work is custom designed, so we don’t sell our plans or our designs.
Q: How many designs do I have to choose from?
Our work is customized to your exact needs, so your design options are virtually endless. If all that design freedom overwhelms you, you can choose from our Lifestyle Classic deck designs that can be easily modified to fit your space.

Q: Do I need a permit to build my outdoor living structure?
Most construction projects require permitting. It does vary from county to county in our area. We will certainly obtain the proper permits as required by law. If you forgo the permitting process, you could be fined, your homeowners’ insurance may be compromised, and you may be unable to sell your house until permitting requirements are satisfied.
Q: How much is my project going to cost?
One of the most common questions we get from homeowners is “how much will it be?” Archadeck of Columbus understands most homeowners want some idea of what they are getting into before getting too involved with the process, which is a reasonable request. The main thing to remember is, in most cases, the bottom-line number for your quote usually comes in lower once we have input all the relevant information.

Q: Does Archadeck of Columbus do repair work or small jobs?
While we would love to work with you, we are usually not the most cost-effective choice for smaller jobs or repair work. We offer very competitive pricing for our typical-sized and larger jobs, but on smaller jobs we are not going to be your most competitive solution. There are times when what you truly need is a handyman or contractor who specializes in repairs and small projects.
Q: How much expertise does Archadeck of Columbus have?
It’s very important that you do your homework before choosing a company to construct an addition to your home or landscape. Whether it’s a simple patio outside your back door or a multi-level deck and porch combination space, extreme caution and attention to detail are key to delivering a quality product. At Archadeck of Columbus, we believe we offer more from start to finish than any other design or build company.
Q: Do you offer warranties?
Yes, we offer 3 warranties. Simply put, no other company in the remodeling industry provides this level of client assurance and protection. Meaning that when you elect to work with Archadeck of Columbus, you can rest assured that you’ll enjoy quality construction levels and unmatched protections not available from any other builder.
