Perfect experience
Perfect experience. From the beginning Dax and team were very attentive to understanding exactly what we were looking for but also proactively suggesting alterations that would make the project better. Dax’s suggestions have resulted in a more functional deck and patio than what we asked for. We are thrilled with the quality of the work, responsiveness of the team, and diligence of the work. Project was completed faster than we expected, kept us engaged in every step of the process, and was done professionally with focus on detail. I would highly recommend Valdovinos Construction.

Deck and Patio Replacement
I hired this company to replace my decking and railing and also replace my stone patio and extend it to my front gate. They did an awesome job with working with me. Even when I made a few changes during the process, they did it without hesitation. It was truly a blessing to have a company understanding your vision as the project moves along and accommodate you. I would definitely recommend them to everyone!

Adolfo’s crews are superior and professional craftsmen. It was fascinating to watch each of the specialized crew members work in tandem to demo and recreate our rather complicated deck plan. Whether rain or extreme heat, nothing stopped these driven workers from completing this job to our satisfaction. We are planning to have them back in the future to do a new patio and have already recommended them to friends. Just incredible work. Kudos to these fine professionals.

Screened Porch, Deck, and 2 New Doors
Valdovinos Construction built my 16'x16' Screened Porch and 12'x14' Deck, replaced an old Bay Window with a Sliding Door leading to the deck, and replaced a window and door with French Doors leading to the screened porch. It all turned out perfect and is beautiful. The materials and craftsmanship are top notch. I strongly recommend Valdovinos for your construction needs. This company was referred to me by several of my neighbors and I have referred them to my friends and co-workers. Everyone is ecstatic with the work completed by Valdovinos Construction.

Backyard Dream Come True: Exceptional Craftsmanship by Valdovinos Construction
Warning – This is a lengthy review, but it’s written to showcase the exceptional workmanship, attention to detail, and overall excellence of Valdovinos Construction.After years of searching for the right company to build our dream outdoor entertainment space—and repeatedly being told it couldn’t be done due to the elevation in our backyard or being pushed toward alternative designs—I reached out to Valdovinos Construction, recommended by a coworker who had hired them.I contacted them in October 2024 for a quote to build a large deck, gazebo, and patio. From my first phone call with Dax to the site visit with Dax and Adolfo Valdovinos, the company owner, every interaction was positive and focused on turning our vision into reality. The final result exceeded our highest expectations.Guided by a sketch my wife drew, Dax helped refine the design with expert input. Together, we visited paver and granite suppliers, reviewed photos of their past work, explored decking catalogs, and did plenty of online research. We agreed on a price and signed the contract on Christmas Day 2024 (intentionally chosen), with construction beginning in late February.Adolfo and his crew broke ground on February 25. Despite weather, material, and inspection delays, the team stayed responsive and proactive throughout.The project ultimately included a deck, screened gazebo, patio, and full outdoor kitchen:Deck• 22 x 24 ft with a 7 x 2 ft bump-out featuring 45° angles• TREX Transcend decking: Havana Gold (main), Lava Rock (accents)• 24 vinyl-wrapped deck posts with dusk-to-dawn low-voltage lighting• Two staircases—one to the driveway/garage, one to the patio—with landing and runway-style lightsGazebo• Traditional 8-sided (octagonal) design, 6 ft per side (174 sq ft)• Interior: walnut-stained pine ceiling, four recessed lights, ceiling fan, two infrared heaters, two GFCI outlets• Ring floodlight camera on the exterior fascia for security• Architectural shingles to match home• All posts and beams wrapped in white vinyl/PVC—no exposed wood anywherePatio• 950 sq ft laid in herringbone pattern with NICOLOCK pavers (Travertina + brown border)• Two 12-ft half-moon sitting walls with four 30-inch piers• One includes a built-in, circular smokeless wood-burning fire pit• Piers topped with 27-inch hammered glass lanterns• Recessed dusk-to-dawn lighting in both half-moons• Two 20-inch retaining walls (25 ft total length)Outdoor Kitchen• 18 x 3 ft cement-block island with stone veneer and granite countertop• Custom-built to house: – Traeger Timberline 880 pellet grill/smoker – 36-inch Blackstone griddle/air fryer combo – Gozney Arc XL pizza oven – Kamado Konnected Joe digital charcoal grill/smoker – Traeger induction cooktop – Cabinet storage• Three GFCI outlets• Topped with a 20 x 2 ft pergola that matches the rest of the constructionAdolfo and Dax handled everything—subcontractors, inspections—except HOA coordination and items I personally purchased (see disclaimer). While they didn’t speak directly to the HOA, Dax assisted me in preparing a detailed submission package including site plans, architectural drawings, material images, and 3D renderings. We received HOA approval quickly with no revisions.The completed space looks nearly identical to the 3D renderings—if not better.We couldn’t be happier. Adolfo and his entire team was professional, courteous, responsive and flexible—even with last-minute changes. Our neighbors were so impressed, several are now planning projects of their own with Valdovinos Construction. Best of all, our married children now visit more often, and the space has become a true family hub—hosting cookouts, birthday dinners, game days, s’mores by the fire pit, and lazy afternoons on the chaise lounges—just as my wife envisioned. It’s everything we hoped for—and more.Disclaimer: The following items were purchased separately and installed by Valdovinos and/or their subcontractors: ceiling fan, two infrared heaters, Ring floodlight and two spotlight cameras, four John Timberland pier lights and two wall lights, Traeger grill and cooktop, Blackstone griddle, Gozney pizza oven, Kamado grill, 3-drawer and 2-door cabinets, and 16 tons of custom-blend river jack rock for ground cover under the deck and gazebo.

A Wonderful Experience
I had a wonderful experience dealing with Valdovinos Construction. Beginning with Dax, the salesman, who answered my many questions, to all installers who were very polite and kept me updated throughout the process. Renee went above and beyond with doing extra work, to make sure my patio was perfect. I love my paver steps and patio! It looks great and I would highly recommend Valdovinos Construction for a patio.

Thanks to Valdovinos Construction
Thanks to Valdovinos Construction we got the walk way and steps we wanted. Dax was super good in presenting a CAD image (only contractor to do that) and helped us through the process of choosing materials, which also had to be presented to HOA. Work crew were outstanding and hard working. Some minor cosmetic issues couldn’t be completed due to change in weather but promises were kept without me having to keep pestering, which was a delight. Would work with this company again.

10/10 Wonderful Experience
I had a great experience working with Valdovinos Construction! The owner Adolfo is very knowledgeable and such a pleasure to work with overseeing the project, Dax who quoted us and organized the contract kept the permit process going and provided great communication around updates and options. The crew was knowledgeable, friendly, and worked until each day's portion of the job was finished. They were very quick to get our deck project going and completed with very little downtime. Valdovinos did an incredible job making our dream deck that is such an upgrade from what we had previously. Again working with them was a wonderful experience and I hope to use them in the future for different projects and looking forward to referring them to others who are looking to update their deck or patio space!

Outstanding quality of work!
Adolpho has been doing work on our house projects for over a decade. The quality of his work has always been excellent. Really appreciate his diligence and thoroughness in completing his projects. Strongly recommend Vavadanos Construction for your deck work and any other house projects.

deck and screened porch
Adolfo did a large deck and screened porch for us. Very good experience. Team was professional and handled several change requests with ease. I have since recommended his company to several friends and they too have been pleased. We are having them do our kitchen next year.

beautiful new deck!
Adolfo did an excellent job communicating before starting the work. The deck he built is precisely what we wanted and is a significant improvement for us. He was responsive to our concerns throughout the process and even returned afterward to address a few minor loose ends. Thank you!
