“We vetted three contractors before choosing DG Builders. David and his team understood what my wife and I were looking for. They took our vision for our new deck and made it come to life and we could not be more pleased with our decision. David was very accommodating. If you’re looking for a reliable, honest, and good contractor to do business with... I can guarantee that you will not regret choosing DG Builders over all the other contractors in the upstate.”

-Travis Stallings

“I cannot thank and recommend DG Builders and their team enough for my beautiful new backyard patio! On June 17th I told them that my goal was to have it done by June 24th for a girl’s weekend at my house (which I knew was probably an impossible request and not going to happen). I’m not sure how, but they managed to get it all done - literally JUST in time!!! On top of getting having the patio beautifully completed in a quick 3 days.. I was surprised with a gorgeous bouquet of flowers, chocolate covered strawberries and a bottle of Prosecco to help us celebrate our girl’s weekend! So kind of you all! THANK YOU!”

- Caitlin Dittrich

“David came highly recommended from a friend, and he didn't disappoint. They tore down and removed our old deck and built a new modern deck with screened in areas and open deck areas. We used the high quality Trex system and are very pleased with the construction. During the process we got to work with several office and construction staff and they were always helpful and courteous. We will, and have recommended David to nieghbors and friends.

- Chuck Hudson

“They were wonderful Caroline kept me informed of everything going on. The guys putting up the deck with very professional. Anyone looking for a new deck I would call them they’re great.”

History of Gantt, SC

Gantt, South Carolina, a small yet historically rich town within Greenville County, boasts a past deeply intertwined with the development of the Upstate region. Originally a rural area, Gantt has grown significantly since its early days, due in part to its proximity to Greenville and the establishment of various textile industries. Today, the town represents a blend of old and new, with historical sites sitting alongside modern developments. This transition from a farming community to a suburban town reflects the broader economic and social shifts in the South over the past century. More about its history can be discovered through its local government site and Gantt’s Wikipedia page.

  • David Craig Anderson: "We wanted a large room to use as a formal library and very best room to gather, with a wood burning fireplace and cathedral ceiling, wainscoting on the walls, etc. We also wanted a large rectangular deck, that when we were entertaining in the formal library we could also spill out onto the TREX deck. DG Builders gave us all of that, a magnificent room and deck. Thank you DG Builders. We are now in the process of filling the room with antiques, old maps and bookcase stacks, and loving every minute."
  • Elizabeth Walker: "DG Builders - always good quality work for a fair price! We had a few pieces of rotting wood in our deck. DG Builders came and fixed it right up, did an excellent job. We have used DG Builders for a number of home repair projects like this, including our roof replacement. They always do great work. Call them!"

Frequently Asked Questions about Decks in Gantt, SC

  • Durability:
    • Weather Resistance: Composite decking is more resistant to weather extremes like humidity, intense sunlight, and heavy rain. It won't warp, crack, or splinter like wood.
    • Insect Resistance: Unlike wood, composite materials are not susceptible to termites and other wood-boring insects.
  • Low Maintenance:
    • No Need for Staining or Sealing: Composite decks don't require regular staining, sealing, or painting like wooden decks. A simple cleaning with soap and water usually suffices.
    • Mold and Mildew Resistance: Composite materials are less likely to develop mold and mildew, a significant issue in humid climates.
  • Longevity:
    • Longer Lifespan: Composite decking generally lasts longer than wood decking, often coming with warranties of 25 years or more.
  • Aesthetics:
    • Consistent Appearance: Composite decking maintains its color and appearance longer than wood, which can fade and weather over time.
    • Variety of Styles: Composite decking comes in a wide range of colors and finishes, often mimicking the look of natural wood.
  • Environmental Considerations:
    • Recycled Materials: Many composite decks are made from recycled plastics and wood fibers, making them a more environmentally friendly choice compared to new lumber.
  • Safety:
    • Slip Resistance: Composite materials can be designed to be more slip-resistant than wood, beneficial in South Carolina's wet conditions.
  • No Splinters: Composite decking doesn't splinter, making it safer for bare feet and pets.

Trex decking is a composite material made from up to 95% recycled materials, including reclaimed sawdust and recycled plastic film. This plastic comes from common household items like dry cleaner bags, newspaper bags, grocery bags, and plastic overwrap on packaging. The plastic improves the wood's resistance to water and insect damage. Trex also uses eco-friendly manufacturing processes.

Yes! We use hidden fasteners with our composite decking to provide a clean, seamless look.

  1. Clear the deck's surface and sweep away any large debris.
  2. Spray down with a hose to remove smaller debris and dirt.
  3. Gently scrub the surface with a soft-bristle brush and warm, soapy water.
  4. Rinse thoroughly using a hose.

Trex decking offers a 50-year warranty on their Transcend line, a 25-year warranty on Enhance Basics and Naturals, but they expect it to last a lifetime.

As a licensed Trex retailer, we consider Trex to be the best composite decking to install.

We recommend using picture frame boards on deck and stair treads.

Depending on the scope of work and any necessary preparations, most composite decks can be built within 2-8 weeks.

The process is simple:

  1. Introductory phone call: Discuss your needs and desires.
  2. On-site design consultation (if we're a good fit): David, our licensed homebuilder and owner, will discuss the scope of work, budget, and schedule.
  3. Formal proposal (if you choose to move forward): David will write up a proposal for your project.
  4. Contract and work schedule (upon acceptance): We will provide a contract and schedule for work to begin.

Once complete, you'll become a happy client with a beautiful outdoor living area!
