Remodel Your House Inside and Out

Backed by 25 years serving Toledo-area homeowners

Lateral Decks handles deck construction, gazebo builds, home remodeling, concrete work, and roofing across Toledo and surrounding areas, bringing 25 years of hands-on experience to every project. Martin focuses on larger jobs—typically $10K to $50K and up—that demand dedicated crews, in-house permit coordination, and careful management from start to finish. Licensed and insured, Lateral Decks works directly with homeowners who need custom decks, full kitchen remodels, or structural repairs done right the first time.


If you're planning a new deck for summer entertaining or facing a kitchen that no longer works for your household, you need someone who can manage the complexity without the runaround. Materials ain't cheap, and neither is time—so straightforward planning and quality execution matter. Lateral Decks keeps projects on track whether you're expanding outdoor living space or updating the inside of your home.


Martin takes pride in his work and focuses on making homeowners happy with results that last. Free estimates give you clear numbers up front, and flexible discounts are available for qualifying customers. Lateral Decks delivers the kind of quality that turns a single project into a long-term relationship built on trust and solid craftsmanship..

How Larger Jobs Get Done

Lateral Decks specializes in projects that require dedicated crews and detailed coordination—deck installations, full remodels, gazebo builds, and structural work that involves permitting, material logistics, and multi-stage timelines.

Martin manages every detail in-house so you know what to expect at each step, from the first walk-through to final cleanup. Direct calls and clear communication keep surprises out of the process.

Toledo-area homeowners face November-to-March weather slowdowns that make outdoor construction impractical, which is when interior remodeling and kitchen or bathroom updates become the focus. Spring brings freeze-thaw damage to light, prompting roof repair demand just as deck season ramps up for summer. Understanding these seasonal rhythms means your project gets scheduled at the right time with realistic expectations for weather, material delivery, and crew availability.

When you work with Lateral Decks, you can expect:

Built on Pride and Results

Lateral Decks operates with a straightforward approach: I can pretty much do it all, from pouring concrete footings to framing a custom deck to gutting and rebuilding a kitchen. Martin's 25 years of experience mean he's seen the challenges that trip up less seasoned crews—structural surprises, material delays, weather disruptions—and knows how to keep larger jobs moving without compromising quality. Every project reflects the same standard: take pride in my work and make the homeowners happy.


Licensed and insured status isn't just paperwork—it's a baseline of accountability that protects you and ensures every job meets local code requirements. Martin manages his business to stack revenue through the summer when outdoor work is in full swing, then pivots to interior remodeling when winter weather pauses deck and gazebo construction. That adaptability keeps Lateral Decks available year-round and ensures your project gets the attention it deserves, no matter the season.
