"We love our new Outdoor Kitchen! We had finally found the right company to do the work and we worked really hard just to find the right Contractor. D global Construction had a lot of great references of this type of work so we went with them. They did an amazing job bringing our backyard to live with the new Outdoor Kitchen. We are thrilled every time we cook and have dinner in the backyard. It is an incredible experience we highly recommend it to others. They finished the work really fast we was a little surprised. They had such great ideas and designs from the start we knew we had choose the right company for the job. At the end of it all we are highly satisfied and highly recommend D Global Construction."

"I have many great things to say about KYRA Construction, from working with Rami and the office to the job itself. I contacted Kyra construction about two months ago to update my main and guest bathroom. I had an idea, but I wasn't sure how the bathroom would turn out. However, after meeting with rami and showing him my inspiration, he was able to put it all in a 3D design, and this is exactly what I imagined. Rami even came with me to choose the tile and all the fixtures to help me to achieve my vision (I am not very good at designing, so this was great). The crew was functional, always on time, cleaned after every workday, and were very Professional. I had a very close deadline for this project because I had friends and family visiting, and I wanted the bathrooms to be done before they came. In two months, they finished the project with attention to the small details, and I couldn't be more satisfied. I don't have enough words to thank Rami and the Kyra construction team for making this happen."

Very few things are as enjoyable as relaxing or entertaining outdoors on a beautiful day, and very few places in the country have as many beautiful days as Los Angeles. Deck installation is, therefore, one home improvement project that makes a lot of sense in southern California. Whether you're planning a cookout, looking for a place to celebrate, or simply want a place to chill out by yourself, a deck is a fantastic addition that, in such a mild climate, is sure to be used over and over again for a large portion of the year.
Hiring a Deck Builder
If there's one thing that L.A. has in abundance, it's variety. What's true of its people, its cuisine, and its neighborhoods is true for its contractors, as well. When trying to figure out who is the best person or company to build your deck, there are enough choices to make the decision a difficult one. Using a company such as HomeAdvisor can be beneficial when comparing Los Angeles deck builders, and, no matter how you choose to go about it, it's important to talk to (and get estimates from) a few different companies.
Some companies will have materials and styles of decking that they specialize in, while others may offer you a custom built deck constructed of any material you're interested in. If you want something specific, such as a deck made of plastic lumber, it may be beneficial to go with a smaller company that focuses on that material. Even though smaller companies sometimes have to charge more, often the contractor/client relationship is more appealing, and the quality of work (or quality of follow-up work) may also be affected by a company's size. This isn't true in every situation, but hiring a small company that specializes in exactly what you want is rarely a bad idea.
Options
Los Angeles deck installation is a bit more forgiving than a similar project in other parts of the country. L.A. is certainly not the most moisture-rich environment in the nation, and it's far from the coldest, too. When dealing with outdoor wood, these two conditions tend to do a lot of damage—Los Angeles residents certainly don't have as much to worry about when building a deck as someone who lives in Boston or Seattle.
That said, it is still a good idea to make the best deck you can without going over budget, and the materials you choose will have a lot to do with how long your new deck will last. A deck made of Pine and left untreated will probably begin to have problems relatively quickly, despite the mild climate, but it will be very inexpensive. A deck made of a tropical hardwood such as Ipe will have a much longer life span and require less maintenance, but will cost a lot more. Composite decking and plastic lumber are other options that are available, though each has its own pros and cons. Talking to several contractors and having a good idea of what you want for your deck are both good ways to pick the material that's right for your situation, and getting it at a price you can afford.
Installation Prices
For your average deck installation, Los Angeles residents generally pay somewhere in the neighborhood of $16,500 (about 95% of this cost is recovered in added resale value). Obviously, the price will vary depending on what your deck is made of, what material you choose to use, and, of course, the company you pick to do the work.
