We wanted to be sure we lived with our new deck and pavilion before sharing our full thoughts on our experience. Now after 4 months, we're thrilled to say they look as beautiful as the day they were finished!Lee, the owner, and his crew were amazing to deal with! Efficient, respectful, and true craftsmen. From the removal of our old deck to the layout of the new deck, the River City crew was exceptional. My husband and I were amazed at how beautiful the cedar wood was and how Joe, Austin and Matt took such great care and precision in making sure every nail was positioned just right, and every cut was perfect. You aren't just getting some wood slapped together, you're getting art!Lee’s preferred vendor list made the entire process even smoother. Ben and Matt from DexPert did a fantastic job staining the deck and pavilion. We had to have sprinklers removed and Joe from Bio Green was such a sweetheart and so helpful in deciding the best route to go.We couldn’t be happier sitting outside, soaking up the atmosphere of our beautiful new space. If you’re looking to create your own backyard oasis, we highly recommend River City Deck and Patio. Lee and his team will bring your vision to life!Dawn and George

Just had a new patio cover installed. River City did an excellent job and completed within the time frame as requested. Highly recommend. Pricing was just what I expected and the patio cover is wonderful.

Lee provided excellent service as he offered a variety of solutions to several challenges we experienced related to HOA rules and approvals. His solutions were cost effective and had minimal impact to our initial budget.The end result was a completed product better than what we expected. We love our screened in porch and wood deck. It is a combination quality work and excellent materials. I know my family will enjoy it for years to come. Thank you Lee!!

River City Deck and Patio was a blessing to help us complete our outdoor areas. They helped by adding a front porch area with a great wood-topped railed fencing and extending our back patio area (looks like it was there from a new build) to allow for us to have enough shade to use it in this Texas heat. They worked quickly which allowed for easier scheduling with a pool that went in to connect with the work they were doing. Great experience.

Lee, Heidi and the entire crew was awesome start to finish. My project was a 3 phase one , Patio extension, Concrete, Cover, and coating. The entire project took a few months Due to concrete curing time , custom patio cover and coating. Lee was accurate on his initial time lines of each phase which was really nice to know up front and kept in communication. We absolutely love our new patio and it provides such relief from the hot sun that beats our back yard. Every single member of the crews for each trade, was very polite, knowledgeable, and most of all did a great job and actually cleaned up after themselves. You can tell they care, and stand behind their work, which is a huge relief these days. Highly recommend them for making your outdoor dreams come true.

Lee, Heidi and the construction team did an absolutely phenomenal job. From design to the actual building of our pergola it was everything we imagined and dreamed of. Very reasonable price, and the job was done start to finish in under 6 hrs. I would highly recommended this company for any deck, patio or patio cover needs. Kudos to everyone.

From initial consult to final product, everything’s been fantastic. Lee was great and went through various solutions that would meet our needs and price point. The chosen cover was installed by the fabulous duo Stephen and Randy. They were so respectful and kind and built the cover as if it was their own. It brought instant relief from the Texas sun and there wasn’t one speck of debris leftover from the construction so could enjoy the shade without delay. Highly recommend the team and thank you River City Deck and Patio for all you do!

Lee, Heidi, Jacob, James, and Wade all did a fantastic job on our deck/patio. It came out exactly as we imagined…only better! They explained the entire process every step of way, were very reasonably priced, and overall, just a pleasant experience. I would highly recommend them to anyone and use again for any future projects.Update: Worked with Lee and Heidi to add to and modify my deck to support a sun shade sail and the work was done quickly and with quality. The price was also very agreeable. Glad I used them again to accomplish this project. 10/10 would recommend.

Great experience with the entire team. I won’t use any other company. Heidi initially designed my multi level deck years ago and It went beyond my expectations on how it came out. We also built a solid deck on my detach garage. I recently had to replace my above ground pool and had to demo part of my lower level deck and rebuild. The crew did an outstanding job and were always on time. I highly recommend River City Decks and Patio. Lee the owner and Heidi are easy to work with and in my opinion will work hard to make your project easy and affordable as possible.

We absolutely love our concrete decking. Adding year old pictures. Lee and his staff were friendly, professional and dependable.

Sharon Lovely

We are really happy with our deck design and installation by River City Decks. We thought it might be nice to have a roof instead of a pergola to make the space more useful, so we contacted RiverCity Deck. Lee came over and gave us his thoughts on what he thought would be functional and look great. We went with all of his ideas and love the results. His crew of guys were really awesome. They were just so nice and so professional. We barely knew they were in the backyard (and we have 2 dogs that alert us to everything). It was so nice to have such a worry free home improvement job with such impressive results!! Thank you all so much for making this home improvement so easy and worry-free.

I recommend this company to anyone looking for a beautiful job with honest, hardworking people who get the job done amazingly. The expert who designs, the owner, and every crew member were fantastic and a joy to deal with. I get so many daily compliments on my porch and my patio. If you want it done right and only once, do it with River city deck and patio! 100% exceptional

I had River City demo the existing deck in my backyard, build a new deck and install a deck cover.Everyone at River City that I interacted with was friendly, professional and helpful. The process started with a site visit at my home where the assessor viewed the existing deck and took measurements. Following that, we sat down and created a rough sketch of the plan and discussed cost. The final quote was given to me at that time with a formal contract sent to me over email a day or two later.Once I signed up to have the deck and cover built, I worked with River City to schedule the work. The deck crew showed up first, demoed the existing deck and began work on the new deck. Most of the work was done on the first day with some additional work completed the following day. The crew leader was pleasant to work with. He answered all my questions and we discussed my decision on a couple options that were available to me. The yard was cleaned up very nicely when they were done.It was about a week later that the deck cover crew showed up. The deck cover leader was very responsive and kept me updated on scheduling. This work also took all of one day and a little of the following day. The yard was nicely cleaned up afterwards.The final product is beautiful. I'm very happy with how everything turned out. It's rained several times since the cover was installed and I haven't noticed a single leak. River City kept great communication with me the whole time; they responded to all of my questions and listened to all of my concerns; they cleaned up after the construction; and I'm very happy with the final product.I would absolutely recommend River City for this type of work and if I ever needed another deck built, River City would be my first call.

Lee was great with my deck and patio door repairs. He listened to what the needs were of my family and instead of selling me a huge new deck reconstruction project, he celebrated the value of the existing carpentry. He made our comfy outdoor space more safe and updated the areas I was concerned about. I am thrilled with his work, kindness, great communication, and efficient project management/completion. I highly recommend him and his team!

Excellent company to work with. Lee is informative , listened to our wants and needs and excelled in showing us different options and pros/cons of each style. The scheduling process was easy. His crew called and kept us informed of the process . And what we got was a transformation of our backyard! I am very happy with the product and this company ! Will definitely use them again when the next project comes around !!

Lee and his team were awesome from start to finish. The whole process was very organized and I appreciated the communication throughout the process. Highly recommend!

Lee and his crew did an awesome job. He listened to our ideas and explained the pros and cons, so we made an informed decision on what to build. We were able to get what we wanted within our budget and was so much more affordable than all the other quotes we received. All of our work was permitted through the City and the whole project was flawless when the weather finally cooperated. We know several people who have used River City Deck and Patio and are glad we used them as well!

Thank you so much to Lee and Heidi for helping me and my family out of a horrible situation. After a “family friend” destroyed half the deck and stole three thousand dollars, River City saved us. Not only did they push us (I’m a newly widowed mom of three) to the front of the queue, but they gave us an amazing price and a beautiful deck (built in two days). The contractors and deck builders were professional and efficient too. If you’re looking for a new deck with a professional company and efficient and hardworking crew…look no further. Big thanks again to everyone who helped us. -Kristin

We spent a lot of time researching various options to get our deck rebuilt and we are so happy that we went with river city deck and patio. They were very easy to work with, they were on time, the final product is fabulous, and their pricing was excellent. We are thrilled with the final product and would highly recommend this company! Thank you River City Deck and Patio!

We are very happy with River City Deck and Patio!We wanted to replace and extend our existing deck and Lee worked with us on a few different options until we got to the one that worked for us.James and his crew were great, it was completed faster than I anticipated and with good quality.Overall, we felt like we were in good hands through the whole process.

Heidi and Lee were great with design and project management- working to make sure we had everything we needed for HOA ACC approval. Our construction team - James, Wade, and Jacob - were consistent, fast, friendly, and highly skilled. The craftsmanship of our project was impressive. We’re so glad to have this project wrapped up and ready to enjoy!

Alana Harris

21:49 17 Apr 23

Phenomenal company, run by an honest, hardworking person. Came out and gave us a rough quote on our project, with no charge at all. They even have trusted tradespeople listed on their site - and some will give you a discount if you tell them where you heard about them! When we decide to move forward with our project, you can bet they will have our business!

Katherine Peterson

19:25 12 Apr 23

We highly recommend River City Deck and Patio and would give them 10 stars if we could. We had an old deck that needed to be removed and wanted a screened porch in its place. Lee's design, and his team's execution, created a beautiful area for our family to relax and enjoy the outdoors without all the bugs. The crew was on time, professional, and cleaned up the site before leaving each day. All of the materials used were high quality and the craftsmanship impressive. We are very grateful.

Dinah Johnson

18:35 11 Apr 23

I would definitely recommend River City Deck and Patio. Quick to come out and give a bid and communicated well the entire process. I already had a deck, so we just needed to replace it with what I pretty much had, but I can tell the new construction is far better than what I had before. I am also so happy with the quality! I needed shade, so Lee suggested a mini arbor, and it looks great and helps with the sun.

Caitlin Hengst

20:06 28 Mar 23

Where do I start? Professional! Artistic craftsmanship! Would recommend a 1000 times over. Thank you for the beautiful deck guys! Worth every penny.

Ant Duarte

19:02 21 Mar 23

Great price, on time, very professional from start to finish with all employees and owner included. Only company that gave me practical solutions for issues by design at no extra cost. Completely satisfied with bid, workmen, and completion. We used their recommendation on materials for less price and a way better outcome. Very, Very pleased. Save yourself some time and money and meet with Lee.

Bradley Lloyd

20:09 10 Feb 23

There does not exist a better Deck and Patio company in all of Texas. Not hyperbole, just the truth. Lee, Jacob, and James are phenomenal! Not only did they build a top of the line deck of the highest quality and craftsmanship, they also did it significantly cheaper than competitors and orders of magnitude faster. I HIGHLY recommend River City Deck and Patio.

Kevin Jordan

Our entire experience with River City Deck and Patio has been a blessing beyond belief. From the initial consultation where we designed our deck with Lee, our interactions with Cynthia in the office, to our actual build of the deck. Every single step of the way has been seamless, understanding, and compassionate. They have very high quality workmanship and materials, Lee has had great communication and his team was amazing. They worked very quickly and were done within days. We had catastrophic tragedies occur with our family between our first consultation/agreement and final build. Lee and Cynthia treated us with so much kindness and compassion. Thank you for building the most beautiful deck, to enjoy for the lifetime of our home. This investment will be a reminder of the good hearted, hard working people at RCD&P every day we enjoy it. Thank you for your patience and hard work! We will forever appreciate you 💗

Lee has high expectations for the contractors he oversees. I told him my dream, and he had 4 different experts make it happen. Each one paid attention to detail, followed code, and provided a quality product. My wood deck was removed and the cement slab poured, with the area divided into a shed, a screened-in porch, and a pergola shady area.

Lauren Fredregill

00:25 25 Nov 22

Stop looking for outdoor contractors. You found the best. Lee and Heidi did an incredible job designing our pavilion. The construction crew, led by Joe, was professional, flawless and timely in the construction. It took a little over a week to complete and my wife and I couldn't be happier!!! We highly recommend River City Deck and Patio.

They built an arbor and painted /textured the concrete patio. Made a huge difference to the back yard. The space is now inviting and usable regardless of how hot it is outside. I definitely recommend!

Elsa Nichols

We had three companies come out to discuss building a deck. We were most impressed with River City Deck and Patio. Very professional, timely and an excellent joy on our new screened porch. We would highly recommend them for your needs!

Absolutely top-notch business that is becoming a rare breed these days. Lee and Heidi were truly a pleasure to work with. Outstanding communication and professionalism throughout the entire process. No games, no empty promises...kept their word on everything. Crews were timely, professional, and thoroughly cleaned up at the end of each day. Patio cover turned out fantastic...couldn't be happier with the results! I highly recommend River City and would certainly call them first for any future needs!

River City Deck & Patio has provided us professional results. We are completely satisfied with the finished product. Our new living space is such a beautiful addition to our home.

We are incredibly happy with River City Deck and Patio. My wife and I would definately recommend Lee and his company! We wanted to build a elevated deck with a Patio cover. We did research and chose River City Deck and Patio. Man are we glad we did! After my wife met with Lee on the initial consult appointment, she was ready to hire him immediately. These folks are straight shooters! After a few more estimates, there was no doubt who we were going with. We had no sales pressure what so ever when we sat to go over the proposal.James and his crew were professional, friendly, courteous and proficient. They kept a clean worksite. It was pleasing to see the daily progress. The project was done in short order, and with such quality and craftmenship! We are very pleased with the entire process, from start to completion. We absolutely recommend River City Deck, without reservation!

Ed Derendorf

00:02 25 Feb 22

What a fantastic job Lee and his crews did on our Patio cover! The entire process was smooth and painless, and we couldn't be happier with the results. The crews were all extremely professional, and the work definitely speaks for itself. Highly recommend these guys!

15:23 15 Feb 22

River City Deck and Patio is an awesome company to work with, and Lee is a true artist when it comes to deck and patio work. My mother has worked with him on several projects, and even when multiple other deck and patio companies have told her that her ideas were simply not possible, Lee never failed to design something beautiful and perfect to bring her visions for her yard to life. I would highly recommend River City D&P, if you're looking for something custom, they are the business to turn to. If you've ever been told "no" by another "custom" D&P specialist, call Lee! He'll even tell you what to plant and where to get the dream garden you've always wanted.

We wanted to enclose our patio with screen to control insects. We weren’t sure exactly what we wanted but Lee came over and made suggestions as well as listened to what we wanted.He drew up a plan and gave us a cost estimate and a tentative construction schedule. We agreed to the plan and signed right up.It was really cool how the different crafts people came and did their specialty parts of the project, each time, leaving everything neat and tidy.The patio was completed on time and it looks absolutely fantastic! We’ve had our neighbors over and they, too, have been impressed with the work.The main point of this review is not to brag about how cheaply we had it done. It’s to brag how well it was done. If you want something done as cheaply as possible, go look elsewhere. If you want something done right, as promised and leave you with a product you can be proud of and that enhances you home investment, use River City Patio and Deck.As a bonus, Lee’s crews fixed a problem with a marble slab that had come free on my outdoor kitchen!Danny

Can't express enough our satisfaction with the final product that River City Deck and Patio constructed at our home. Our project entailed screening in a 10'x10' concrete footing from which was extended a 28'x12' cedar deck. When I say extended I mean extended -- our home sits on a severely sloped landscape which meant the deck was suspended nearly 20' high. Lee helped us create a plan that effectively met our spatial ambitions, building & HOA requirements, and budgetary constraints. James and Jacob constructed the deck within approx 8 business days. We were amazed at the pace & care with which this duo completed their work -- especially as the deck suspended at such a significant height. Though it was a physically taxing project, they proceeded with a degree of professionalism we admired -- could tell they took a great deal of pride in the product they were building. Neighbors have commented on the quality of the craftsmanship. Several pictures are provided. The screened space will serve as a mosquito free, UV protected space we can enjoy during summer nights. The arbored deck space will serve as an outdoor dining area that we can use to entertain friends. The remaining uncovered deck space will be used to grill, enjoy a fire pit and lounge in the sun when desired. Love the way this project has come together. River City's bid was competitive with other builders -- plan was superior and I can't imagine the craftmanship could be better. Overall an excellent value. The deck should be stained by a separate party within 10 weeks -- we'll provide updated pictures at that time.

Lee was great to work with. Communication was clear throughout the process. His many years of experience show in our new deck! He helped design and problem solve in ways we hadn’t thought of. Would highly recommend.

Dawn Mizell

14:49 25 Nov 21

This is a company worth writing home about. They're not just good, they're great! From calling and talking with Lee, the owner, to consulting with Heidi, the design gal, to watching Oscar and his helper build the deck, all of it was a satisfying experience. In less than three days we had a beautiful deck that expands our living area and is so inviting. We've had many complements already and it's only been a week since completion. We would certainly recommend River City Patio and Deck, and, as a matter of fact, already have to an admiring neighbor. It was a pleasure doing business with this very professional company.

Our new deck is wonderful!!! Completed in only 3 days!!!...and I even added more work to the job. Adrian (deck builder) and his crew were true professionals.

River City Deck & Patio did an amazing job on my deck!! A++ experience from the Design with Heidi to the team that did the construction.

Thanks to Lee and the guys from River City Deck and Patio. From the estimate to the actual job, everything was well-planned and efficient. Kudos to these guys. They have my endorsement, and strong recommendation! Thanks, Lee!

Definitely recommend this company! My fiancé and I are very happy with the finished porch!

They did an outstanding job! Quick turnover time and I love the western red cedar 5 quarter board that they use.

We found the owner, Lee to be very helpful, knowledgeable and professional. He was a great help in assisting us with the design of our gorgeous new deck & arbor.
