The entire process, from quote to finish was easy, professional, and thorough. Mark was extremely personal and kind, walking us through the process and what to expect. Communication was excellent and clear. The crews for both our patio and fence were timely, professional, respectful, and friendly. They did excellent work and we are so happy with everything! We will definitely be repeat customers for future projects and will refer!

Mark and his team made the process of building our deck stress free and clear. I was intimidated to get this project rolling, but Mark with his experience was patient, answered all of our questions and his team was very pleasant to work with. We definitely got what we paid for and we look forward to using our deck for years to come. We would highly recommend Mark to anyone who is looking for an honest, organized contractor. Thanks, Mark!

Mark and his crew designed and built the deck of our dreams. It surpassed all expectations. Their attention to detail is borderline obsessive. Their expertise and knowledge shows in every screw covering. When my rented solar panels posed no problem to Mark, I knew he was the contractor I needed. He “knew a guy”. In fact, he “knows a lot of guys”— all experts at what they do, whether it be roofing, electric, fireplace installation, landscaping, etc. The deck you see in the photos was mostly completed in 2 weeks, ahead of schedule. I was always well informed on the project timeline and status. The crew was friendly, neat, clean and trustworthy. Mostly, they appeared to love what they do. I just can’t recommend them enough. It was an absolutely wonderful experience coming home every day and seeing the progress. Thanks Mark & Crew!!Service: Composite decks

We have been wanting to replace our Deck for the past few years and have had many calls and site visits by multiple contractors. Then we found Custom Design and from the first call we experienced something different than we had from any other contractor! Their professionalism and craftsmanship were evident in every step of the process. You will not regret the call!

Working with Mark and the process insured a perfect outcome to our project. We had talk with other contractors, and none of them even came close to really understanding our vision for our deck. Mark took the time to not only get to know our vision, but then he took the time to really help us visualize the reality of what we wanted when designing the space. Thank you Mark!

Custom Design and Build did an awesome job on my new deck. It looks great, especially the lights going down the steps. And it's must sturdier so we can go out there and not be afraid that we're going to fall. It only took a few days from start to finish and everything was cleaned up with nothing left behind. GREAT JOB!!!

I recently had some deck work completedAt my home in Harford county . The work wasExcellent and fairly priced! We compared with other service providers in our area prior to hiring. , truthfully having work done on our home in the past had been a disaster. This contractor was by far the best... I recently purchased a dog and we were looking for a fence contractor for security and something that looked nice for our property. We reached out to mark once again for some recommendations fence types Etc. Mark was very thorough as always and knowledgeable of codes with Harford County needed for a fence installation. His services from start to finish were great is know how from permit process to installation being complete. Custom design and build has a great group of men in the field doing the work. I will note Mark's price was comparable but a little bit higher than the other companies in the area. I have no regrets of using his services for a second time was well worth the money and the wait to get on his schedule.Service: Fence building

Mark is extremely professional and he and his team do excellent work. Mark assists in planning, keeps in communication, and is friendly and personable. My deck is beautiful! A pleasure to do business with Mark and this company.I am updating my review only to reiterate how awesome Mark and his team are. I am having a problem with my home that is completely unrelated but in close proximity to the deck that this company built and Mark and Louis still came out to my home to support me in reviewing the problem I am having. They know what they are doing and do it well. Professional and nice guys besides!

Mark ans team were fantastic to deal with. They took my weird piece of land and turned it into a stunning piece of landscape. I get comments from every person that comes to my home. We had no idea what to do with it, and they came with ideas, made adjustments in the middle of the project if something wasn't working, and re-did any piece we were unhappy with. They treated the my project like it was what they would want their home to look like. I would hire them again for any work I needed done.Services: Deck installation, Composite decks, Deck design, Patio enclosure construction
