About Hickory Dickory Decks

Custom builders of decks and gazebo's creating the ultimate backyard paradise. At Hickory Dickory Decks, our aim is to be the best quality and service oriented company in the deck business. Our business is built on satisfied customers, one deck at a time.We began by using composite decking materials. These products have many advantages over wooden decks. No more staining, peeling, no slivers, no cracking, no warping, no twisting, and a better non-slip surface. We are the largest composite deck builder in Canada and have over 1,500 of these installed. This "maintenance-free" decking is over 85 percent of our business today and will never need staining but does require an occasional bath. Every year we find crews hundreds of miles away working on projects referred by one of our satisfied customers. They will travel world wide to work with great customers on their custom deck. In 2005, Hickory Dickory Decks became a stocking dealer of the leading easy-care/maintenance-free deck products. We carry Xtendex, Weatherbest, Correct Deck, Procel, Veka, Trex, Dexx, EZ Deck, Weatherdeck, Monarch, Deck Lok and Lifelong Decking. They also can special order any other composite deck of your choice.

About Crop & Drop Counter Tops

As a Crop & Drop Counter Tops franchisee, you will effectively penetrate multiple markets your competition can only dream of. The reason is simple... price. You will basically be offering the same products as a granite fabrication plant at a fraction of the cost. Not only will you cater to an established industry, but you'll also be selling to a market normally outside the reach of the solid surface fabricator - the ordinary home owner. Research has proven that home owners with average incomes would purchase granite if it were more affordable. With Crop & Drop Counter Tops, that obstacle is removed. Your price advantage permits you to sell at up to 50% below your competition and still maintain your profit margins!

This opportunity will only be available for a short time. We are only interested in establishing a few franchises per area, so contact us today to get started! Remember, previous experience is not required - our program was developed to train and certify selected individuals with or without experience.
