§ 01 / Our mission

A better way to begin an outdoor living project.

Make the first connection clearer and easier.

Deckari was created to make it easier for homeowners to find experienced builders for decks and outdoor living projects. The goal is simple: help homeowners reach professionals who are suited to the work, and help reputable builders connect with serious local projects.

§ 02 / Founder

Built from a homeowner’s own experience.

Marc Ilgen

Founder of Deckari

When Marc and his family built their own deck, he was frustrated by how difficult it was to find a qualified builder who was a good fit for the project. He started Deckari to make that process easier for other homeowners.

Marc has spent more than 40 years as an executive in software and technology, leading teams, building organizations, and solving difficult technical and business problems. He brings that experience to Deckari to help builders grow their businesses and make it easier for homeowners to find the right professional for their project.
