Our Story
Serving Families in New Jersey Since 1987
Since 1987, the Barrett Outdoors team has been providing exceptional outdoor living solutions to homeowners in New Jersey. With our attention to detail, construction expertise, and commitment to customer service, we have become a trusted name in the industry. Our company, Barrett Contracting of NJ, Ltd, is a licensed home improvement contractor in the state (License #13VH04871400).
With over 80 years of combined experience in deck design and construction, our team is well-equipped to handle any project.
We have a dedicated office team that ensures smooth communication between all parties involved. From the initial consultation, we take the time to understand your vision and incorporate your ideas into a design that fits your home and budget.
What Makes Barrett Outdoors Different?
Barrett Outdoors goes beyond deck building: We are your all-in-one solution as general contractors.
We can manage every aspect of your project, coordinating with subcontractors like electricians, plumbers, and masons to ensure seamless integration with your deck construction.
This comprehensive approach simplifies the process, making Barrett Outdoors the single point of contact for all your outdoor project needs.
We take pride in our industry-leading warranties and commitment to excellent service. From the moment you reach out to us throughout the construction process and even after the project is completed, we strive to provide exceptional support.
Our dedication to customer service and craftsmanship has earned us prestigious awards and praise from our satisfied customers. We are passionate about creating outdoor living spaces that enhance your home and lifestyle.
Our Values
A core value at Barrett Outdoors is a mindset of going beyond expectations. We are customer- and community-focused.
We do our part to help the world become a better place by donating a percentage of every contracted job to a nonprofit organization. Plus, we invite our customers to choose a nonprofit from our list of highly rated nonprofits, as scored by Charity Navigator.
The Barrett Outdoors team has been very involved with the North American Deck and Railing Association (NADRA) and its community outreach efforts, such as their 100% volunteer Deck for a Soldier projects.
We partner with our licensed architect to design the safest decks in the industry. We do this by exceeding industry safety standards, such as designing at 60lb live load per sq ft rather than the minimum requirement of 40lb live load per sq ft, and by designing the deck specific to your home and your soil conditions.
Our Process
We make it easy to work with us at Barrett Outdoors. Here is our straightforward process:
- Request a Free Consultation: Begin the deck construction process by requesting a consultation to explore the possibilities.
- On-Site Visit and Further Exploration: Schedule an on-site visit for measurements, photos, and we will ask additional questions to better understand your design plans and budget.
- Visit Our Design Center: Preview a computer model of your dream deck project. Schedule a visit to our design center to see materials and visualize the final result.
- Schedule the Project: Approve the deck design and budget, sign a contract, and Barrett Outdoors creates a project schedule for timely completion.
