"The entire process was a fiasco. Mike and his team built our deck without checking the ledger board or apparently using a level. Our deck started to sag in the middle and we called his team out to look at it. They did a quick fix which did not resolve the issue. We called Mike and had a brief discussion, and he told us, "I don't know what to tell you". He then hung up on us. We eventually got him to come back out. He had an attitude the entire time. His crew admitted to not checking the ledger board. Our deck is lower on one end and has several areas of buckling. Mike had nothing but excuses. One of his team members offered a solution. They worked on it and left without asking for feedback. Mike never followed up. They also don't use hidden fasteners so there are holes in our no maintenance decking. Mike was completely rude and unprofessional. They built our deck wrong and he made us, the customer, feel like the bad people. His crew also took the dirt from the footings and threw it under our arborvitae bushes. I had to dig it all out by hand. There are a lot of deck builders. Do you research. I wish we had."

We specialize in roofing, siding, deck construction and most facets of exterior remodeling. We handle siding replacement in the twin cities, roofing in the twin cities, as well as all twin cities deck construction. We also perform other types of construction and remodeling for the entire twin cities metro area. When i started D. S. Bahr Construction, Inc in 1990, I decided that there were two important standards that I would maintain for my company: high quality & excellent communication. We use only the highest quality roofing, siding and deck materials backed by strong manufacturers. My Minneapolis roofing contractors know that every job must pass my high standards for quality work. You won't find a deck builder in the twin cities that takes more pride in their quality workmanship. Communication - as a home owner myself, i understand that there's nothing more frustrating than waiting for answers and call backs from companies i need service from. At D. S. Bahr Construction, we guarantee that we'll answer all your questions in a timely fashion. No more waiting indefinitely for a call back to get a bid for decks in St. Paul or roofing in Minneapolis. No more playing "phone tag" when you need answers about house siding in the twin cities. As president of D. S. Bahr Construction, I'm still hands-on and in the field. If you contract us to handle your remodeling and construction needs, you'll always have a link to the owner and president of the company. Please include a contact phone number when emailing for estimates. Award winning.
"In the summer of 2024, D S Construction replaced my old roof with a new roof. The project went very well from start to finish. The crew were efficient and professional and I am very happy with the appearance of the new roof. I look forward to working with this company on future projects."

"The work was good, and clean-up was fine. Bad (rainy) weather hampered the start of the project - not their fault. The crew was 2 brothers that always started later in the morning (because "they were coming from up by St. Cloud down to Mpls"). Overall, the finished project is great. Just small nits on communication."

Dupont Decks is a family-owned business that was founded by Justin Dupont in January 2000. Justin worked for many years as a crew foreman for other construction and remodeling companies and noticed that most of the companies lacked in the area of communication and customer service. Being a homeowner himself, he knew that customer service and communication were two of the most important qualities needed in running a successful remodeling business. And so Dupont Decks was created. We take great pride not only in our excellent craftsmanship, unique custom building and design process and high quality materials, but also in the fact that we treat our customers just like we would want to be treated if we were doing a deck or porch project on our own home. We know that our customers are the most important part of our business. If you are considering doing a deck or porch project on your home, we invite you to call our office today for a free estimate and we thank you for considering us for your home improvement project. We are happy to offer Senior Citizens (age 65+) and Military Service Members a 5% discount on services with a max cap of $500 on this discount.
"We loved working with these guys! After going over options with us, listening to what we wanted, and providing the perfect design, our deck went up in no time. Great communication through the entire process - they described step by step what was going to happen and when. Like clockwork, as they say. The end result is outstanding! Better than we hoped for! This adds a whole new wonderful "room" to our house. Strongly recommend Dupont Decks - 5 stars for sure!"

Composite fencing requires minimal maintenance to stay durable and attractive. All you need to do is clean your fence using a composite deck cleaner or gentle, soapy water with a soft-bristle brush. By cleaning it at least twice a year—in spring and fall—you'll remove debris and prevent mold and mildew buildup, keeping your fence in top condition.
Composite fencing can last 30 years or more when properly installed and maintained. Its durability comes from quality materials that resist weather and wear. By regularly cleaning your fence and performing simple maintenance, you can maximize its lifespan and enjoy a long-term investment for your property.
Yes, composite fencing can fade in the sun, especially during the first six months as the wood tannins naturally release. To help manage this change, consider getting a color chart from your fence supplier to see how the color will adjust over time. You can also apply exterior treatments to restore vibrancy and keep your fence looking the way you want it.
Composite fencing is more expensive initially than wood fencing, reflecting its superior materials and enhanced durability. The higher up-front cost is balanced by its long-lasting performance and minimal maintenance requirements, making it a smart long-term investment. This clear cost difference per linear foot helps you plan your budget effectively while enjoying the benefits of advanced construction and reliability.
