I had a disjointed balcony and deck that was built in stages by previous owners. It looked terrible and had some wood rot. Pat’s bid was reasonable and the project was done in a timely manner. Pat communicated with me regularly and addressed any questions and concerns I had. The deck, balcony, stairs, and walkway came together beautifully and even my out-of-state contractor brother was impressed with how it turned out.

Pat took a photo of a deck I sent him that I liked in my neighborhood and was able to draw up plans for my deck. He presented options and was up front about pricing at the initial meeting for a quote. I was indecisive on how the steps would go, colors for the decking materials, and railing. Pat is great at giving variations on what could be built and gives his honest feedback on what will look good. He did the deck in two days, and he is on time and hard working. If you want to hire a small business owner, that does the work himself with one assistant, Pat is your guy. His price came in half price of the larger companies that have a lot of overhead for sales staff, marketing, websites, and “show rooms”. It was a fantastic experience working with Pat on a dream deck I wanted for years. He designs it, builds it, and is there start to finish. With working full time and having two small children, Pat made this home project stress free. I will enjoy my deck for many years to come with Pat’s craftsmanship. He also loves what he does for a living, and you can see the joy that he feels sharing his passion for decks with people trying to create an outdoor space. I’m very happy that I picked Pat Forrest to do my deck. I highly recommend him!

Pat and his crew were a pleasure to work with. They really knew their stuff and we are satisfied with what they have done. We can rest easy knowing our deck was built with professionalism, and we will enjoy it for many years to come.

I was absolutely amazed at Mr. Forrest. I would hire him for any project. He is no nonsense and does super quality work. Probably the best Contractor I've ever used in all my houses.

Pat is knowledgeable, professional and creative! He is also fast. He s very experienced and confident. Our deck is beautiful. I loved watching the daily progress as it came together so quickly! He drew plans for us so we knew what to expect. He required his staff to clean up after each day s work. He also was on site for most of the construction and worked alongside his crew. They did not take days off, other than weekends, and worked in the rain! He came up with creative solutions. Pat is wonderful! You won t be disappointed!

We moved into a rental home in Ocean Beach and needed a rear deck built off the back slider. Pat was very responsive! The quality of work was top notch and he's an easy guy to work with! Highly recommended.

Seal of Approval

What is the screening process that Service Professionals go through in order to become members of the HomeAdvisor network?

  1. Verify Trade License
    HomeAdvisor checks to see if the business carries the appropriate state-level license.
  2. Verify Insurance
    As a part of our screening process, we encourage professionals to carry general liability insurance. We require coverage for hundreds of services.
  3. Verification of State Business Filings
    For business types that require a Secretary of State filing, we confirm that the business is in good standing in the state in which it is located.
  4. Criminal Records Search
    HomeAdvisor uses 3rd party data sources to conduct a criminal search for any relevant criminal activity associated with the owner/principal of the business.
  5. Sex Offender Search
    We confirm that the owner/principal is not listed on the official state Sex Offender web site in the state in which the owner/principal of the company is located.
  6. Bankruptcy Search
    We use 3rd party data sources to check the history of the principal/owner of the business for bankruptcy filings by or against them.
  7. Legal Search for Civil Judgments
    We use 3rd party data sources to check the principal/owner of the business for state level civil legal judgments entered against them.
  8. Liens Search
    We use 3rd party data sources to check the principal/owner of the business for liens placed against them.
  9. Identity Verification (SSN)
    HomeAdvisor verifies the social security number(s) of the owner/principal for identity check purposes. This check applies primarily to smaller business entities.
  10. Identity Verification (Reverse Phone Lookup)
    We conduct a reverse business phone lookup to identify records matching the phone number information provided by the business.
