Our Customers Are Our Best Sales Staff
“Custom Design Group is the only contractor that we have hired to do more than one project for us… we have been so pleased with their work that we have had them build a deck for us every time we’ve moved – 3 times.”
“I have had Barry build 2 decks for me. His design knowledge and conscientiousness always ensure that I have a wonderful deck that I can be proud of.”
“Barry & Meghan are like family. They built our deck, put in a hot tub, and later remodeled our kitchen. We would always recommend them.”
“What a Great Outcome! It’s even better than the pictures and far exceeded our expectations.”
