About Us
For nearly 20 years Core Outdoor Living has been building decks, porches, patios, pergolas, Tiki bars, outdoor barbecues and fireplaces/pits, stoned terraces, custom drives, and just about every other exterior standing structure you can imagine. We operate exclusively in the Northern Virginia area and examples of our industry-leading craftsmanship can be found in communities across the region.
But don’t take our word for it. Talk to our clients. Look at our body of work. Or best of all, give us 20 minutes to tell you the myriad ways we’re different. Better make that 30 minutes because there are A LOT of reasons that we’re not just another ‘deck company.’
For starters, we have mastered a wide variety of techniques that lend themselves to superior craftsmanship, durable design and construction, reduced materials costs (which we pass on to you) and, frankly, the best decks, porches, patios and other outdoor experiences that you’ll find anywhere in the Mid-Atlantic.
We are also very big on delivering outstanding client service. In fact, we have adopted Fortune 500-style client relationship management practices into our business, something that is unheard of in this industry. We return phone calls promptly and courteously, we show up on time, we don’t leave until the job is done, and we stand by our work. The result is an extensive list of deeply satisfied clients who refer new work to us with their neighbors, family and friends. Indeed, virtually all of our business growth over the past two decades has come from word of mouth and we like it that way. Happy clients lead to new business.
