A Deck That Matches Your Oakland Hills View

Living in the Oakland Hills, whether you are in Montclair, Skyline, or Rockridge, means you have a view worth celebrating. But it also means dealing with shifting soils, strict seismic codes, and the reality of fire zones. Standard “flat land” construction simply doesn’t work here.

We navigate the City of Oakland’s strict permitting process, manage pier-and-beam foundations for hillside stability, and use Class A fire-rated materials to ensure your home is defensible, compliant, and absolutely stunning.

My grandparents backyard deck had taken a beating over the years, especially from all the snow and rough weather. It was definitely time for some love, and Sidex really came through for! What stood out most was the crew and how they treated my grandparents like family and were genuinely so kind throughout the whole project. Really glad we chose them!

I can’t say enough good things about Sidex Siding & Decking! From the first phone call to the final walkthrough, the entire experience was outstanding. The team was professional, punctual, and incredibly knowledgeable. They took the time to answer all of my questions, communicated clearly throughout the project, and paid close attention to every detail. The quality of their workmanship exceeded my expectations, and the finished deck looks absolutely amazing. They treated my home with respect, kept the work area clean, and completed everything on schedule. It’s rare to find a company that truly delivers on its promises, but Sidex Siding & Decking did exactly that. If you’re looking for a trustworthy, skilled, and reliable contractor, I highly recommend them. I couldn’t be happier with the results and will definitely use them again for future projects. Five stars all the way!

We recently hired SIDEX to completely replace the old, worn-out siding on our home and we could not be happier with the results. They gave us a highly competitive and transparent quote with no hidden fees.

We couldn’t be happier with how our new deck turned out! From the very beginning, the whole process was so easy, and the Sidex Construction team was amazing to work with. They really listened to what we wanted and brought our vision to life exactly how we imagined it! Our outdoor space has completely transformed, and it’s now one of our favorite places to relax. It’s exactly what we had in mind for our home, and we honestly couldn’t have asked for a better result. We highly recommend Sidex Construction to anyone looking for quality work!

Had a great experience working with Sidex. Nate was super helpful during the in-person site visit and took the time to explain everything clearly without making us feel rushed or pressured. Andrey was also very helpful with scheduling and keeping everything organized throughout the process. The whole team was professional, easy to work with, and communication was solid from start to finish. Really appreciated how smooth everything went. Would definitely recommend Sidex to anyone looking for quality work and good customer service.
