Decks, porches and backyard builds are the work Dodge Design & Build is hired for. The company says its projects range from decks and backyard structures to small cabins, ADUs and select additions, and it holds 6 Google ratings averaging 5 stars. A recent Google customer needed an inexpensive but well-built outdoor shower; she wrote that Ben got her "the best prices on materials" and let her little girl build the shower with him. A 2026 customer said Ben created the design for their custom porch, and that a hot tub delivered and installed after the deck was built fit perfectly. That 2026 customer said they called him again to replace a wall. A 2026 customer said Ben brought ideas on both design and materials for their kitchen, explained the pros and cons of different choices and stuck to the schedule. A 2026 customer said they were very happy with how their deck turned out.
What an easy and enjoyable experience this was. I am a single mother and needed an inexpensive, but well built outdoor shower. Not only did Ben get me the best prices on materials he also graciously let my little girl build the shower with him! It is a memory she will never forget and she is very proud thanks again, Ben!
Ben did an amazing job with our custom designed porch. He was so easy to work with, created a dynamic and beautiful design, and he made sure that he did everything the right way. I was especially impressed with his accuracy as we had a hot tub delivered and installed after the deck was built and it fit perfectly! He was fast and dependable, and had great communication. We have called him again to replace a wall and, again, I was so impressed with his workmanship. I wish all builders were like him.
Great guy to work with . Very reliable. Works promptly . I would use him again without hesitation . Very competitively priced .
Ben has completed a couple of projects for us, and we’ve been extremely happy with his work. For our kitchen, he brought great ideas to the table in terms of both design and materials. He was good about explaining the pros and cons of different choices. He was very communicative throughout the entire process and kept us informed about progress and next steps. He stuck to the schedule, which we really appreciated. His craftsmanship is excellent, and the attention to detail really shows in the finished product. We are very happy with how it turned out and would absolutely work with him again.
Ben did great work and was very easy to work with. Highly recommended!!
