In this day and age when it seems some trades people don't return your phone calls, don't show up for appointments, provide ambiguous start dates and provide poor workmanship, NORTHWOOD CUSTOM DECKS IS TRULY AN EXCEPTION. Steve New (owner) provides a clear quote and communicates with you on an ongoing basis throughout the whole process and Scott (lead hand) and his crew work diligently, meticulously and tirelessly providing the customer with a deck like no other. The attention to detail and quality of workmanship is amazing to say the least. Our new deck is beautiful and will last forever.
Thank you so much Steve, Scott, Tyler and earlier in the process, Ron and Declan. Your company deserves to be successful.
We were so impressed with Steve New and his crew from Northwood Custom Decks. They built us an enormous new deck for our cottage, and the quality of the workmanship is outstanding. Even the building inspector who came by said that "Northwood Custom Decks builds the best decks in and around Bobcaygeon." It was the best experience we have had with a contractor. Thank you Steve and crew.
We are so thrilled with our new deck. So solidly built, it will surely outlast the house! Steve and his crew were so professional and their expertise shows on every detail of the deck. We finally have a deck we can be proud to show off to our friends.
Thank you!
We had an existing balcony on the lake side of our cottage that was in need of repair or replacement. I contacted Steve New to meet at the cottage to review the replacement option. He brought his portfolio book of previous projects, which was very helpful in discussing various options that were pertainent to our project. A quote was accepted and dates set. Some of you may have had renovation work done where you were disappointed in the workmanship or schedule or the deliverable not being what you expected.....I know that I have. This was not the case with our project with Northwood......his crew were real craftsmen providing great finishing details, the project was delivered on time and the site cleanup was spotless. Through my discussions with Steve we utilized glass railings and each morning when I look out at the lake I am happy we went that way. I spent all my pre-retirement life in the construction industry, I am a stickler for details and Northwood ticked off all my boxes.
Steve New is extremely meticulous with every detail concerning our project. Steve took the time to carefully plan and research the design. We sat with Steve on a few occasions and he made revisions to the design until we were both satisfied with the final drawing. We are extremely grateful that Steve is so detailed orientated because the final product of our two level deck with a screened porch and cedar gazebo that was installed clearly reflects his dedication, commitment and love of his work which completely met our expectations. Steve only selects the best materials which were utilized. Steve took care of the permits and ensured that everything was built to code. Inspection passed with flying colours.
Steve's Crew were always on time at the job site, cleaned up at the end of every day, were polite and professional and kept us in the loop. Communication was clear on everyone's behalf. The crew of Scott, Declan and Ron worked tirelessly through all sorts of weather (as this project started last November and was completed this past May). I applaud the crew for sticking it out as there have been some really cold snowy days along with some really hot humid ones. Great bunch of guys!
We have received nothing but compliments on this entire project from our neighbours and friends.
If you are looking for a 4 x 8 deck which is just a slab of wood - you can find an uncle or cousin somewhere to install it. BUT if you are looking for an outdoor living area which enhances your property value, which will be used for entertainment and will last for years to come, Northwood Customs Decks are the people to call. You will not be sorry that you did. You will only wish that you had called them sooner. Both my husband and I highly recommend Steve New and his crew.
We are very pleased with the final product. Steve and his crew were knowledgeable and meticulous in their work, which resulted in a first class finished job that has drawn favorable reviews from neighbors.
Steve's work crew of Scott.Declan and Ron were pleasant and helpful at all times and tidied up after work each day.
We also appreciated the fact that only the best materials were selected and used.
The additions that we opted for over and above the original job scope were no problem and prices were as quoted.
We had a 12 x 16 upper level deck built with stairs down to our lawn/walkout below.
As a contractor, Steve was both courteous and knowledgeable of his services.
Overall, he and his team did an exceptional job and the most important thing was the attention to detail, such as all handrails sanded/rounded down, smooth so no possibility of splinters.
I must also give credit to his staff as they were very professional and worked well together.
They cleaned up their work site each and every day and very extremely polite.
I would highly recommend them and would definitely use them for any future work.
Thank you,
Kim and Wayne Burgess
We were very impressed with the job that Northwood Custom Decks did for us. They did everything they committed to do in the contract and did not take any shortcuts. If we asked for any additional work to be done, they were very clear about the additional cost...no surprises at the end of the job. They answered all our questions and provided solutions to any issues we raised. The crew was very professional and polite. They cleaned up at the end of each day's work and they were very careful around our gardens and lawn. We love the appearance of our new deck and look forward to enjoying it for many years to come.
Northwood built our deck in 2015 and did an amazing job. We are constantly getting compliments on it. This year we added a pool and because of the grade we needed to add a step, I contacted Steve and he pulled out the drawings and in no time had the design done, they came in and the job was done in 1 day lights and all. The step looks great and original. We highly recommend Northwood if your looking for creativity and to have a fantastic looking deck for years to come.

Warranty | In order to write down a warranty that would make anyone feel comfortable, there would have to be all kinds of disclaimers, including how wood naturally cracks and wears, etc. And then there is no faith left in the warranty. Instead, I prefer to say ... If there is anything that needs to be taken care of with my clients and their projects, and it's fair, I will always take care of it, period. |
