The moulded surface makes each board slip-resistant and cooler on the feet. Abaco Decking has slotted sides for quick and easy installation of hidden fasteners.

Abaco Decking is competitively priced compared to Ipe and other tropical hardwoods and is available in a rich mahogany color that resembles Ipe.

Available sizes:

Abaco is available in both 3/4″ and 1″ thick boards in widths of 3-1/2″ and 5-1/2″, with random lengths ranging from 7′ to 16′, in one-foot increments.

Miami, FL (June 5, 2009) – After more than 26 years in the industry, business is still going strong for Deco Truss. Deco Truss is a leading supplier of Pre-Fabricated Wood Trusses and Building Materials to the construction industry. According to Mario Espineira Jr., Vice President, the company’s continued success during these tough economic times is due to Deco Truss’s focus on customer service. “It’s a simple prospect, but one that is at the core of our business methodology, provide the highest quality product with the kind of personalized attention each client deserves.” In comparison to big box chain supply stores and national chains that have been adversely affected by the economic downturn, Deco Truss’s commitment to give their customers one-on-one attention and custom-tailored service has helped them to prevail – and thrive.

Founded in 1983, Deco Truss is a family-owned business that has built a reputation in South Florida, the Florida Keys, West Florida and the Caribbean, as offering not just the highest quality, cost-effective pre-manufactured truss systems, but also custom-made trusses, building materials, specialty doors, molding, hardware and accessories.

Espineira also stated, “We’re thankful to all of our loyal customers who recognize us as South Florida’s only full-service truss company and lumber yard, without their continued support, our achievements wouldn’t be possible.” Though the current economic environment has been difficult for many businesses, Deco Truss is still growing, holding on to their philosophy that client needs come before all else – and maintaining these standards will continue to set them apart.

Information From Miami-Dade Building Department

The Emergency Relief Ordinance 09-10 is an amendment to Chapter 8 of the Code of Miami-Dade County which establishes a procedure for issuance of a Stop Work Order which would prevent the expiration of the building permit for qualifying property. Qualifying property includes: new residential or commercial construction with a permit issued or re-issued on or after October 1, 2006 with an expiration date on or before June 1, 2009. The construction work must have been halted due to economic hardship such as bankruptcy, foreclosure, assignment of benefit of creditors, short sales and slow sales as demonstrated by fewer than 50% of the units under construction being under sales contract.
 
For more detailed information and request forms, please visit Miami-Dade Building Department  Website Miami-Dade Building Department Building Department Information Desk, or Permit Records Section.

When times are as hard as they are, competition will make competitors cheat, lie and steal just to get the order and by not knowing or following through you are the one who gets screwed.

Just the other day, a client of ours was given a really great price on his rebar, by a local competitor. But was that price really that good.

.34 Cents Per Pound on His Rebar

Compared to

.37 Cents Per Pound that we quoted.

That’s a .03 Cent Savings Per Pound, The Client Explained

Here’s The problem. The Job Only had 15 Tons (30,000 pounds) in it. The Competitor billed the client for 17.5 Tons (35,000 pounds). Therefore the client paid for 2.5 Tons (5,000 pounds) that were not in the job and never delivered. Consequently the client over paid, $800, for the .03 Cent a pound savings.

The Lesson Here is Simple, look at the whole order, not just the price per pound or what one item cost.

By the way, the customer whom over paid, was not a dumb or an inexperienced man by any means. He was just to busy to look at the small things and never thought anyone would do this to him.

If you have any doubts on an order you previously purchased, send us the competitor’s cut list, will be happy to offer a free re-quote and analyses of the order.

Here are 5 simple questions you should ask, when you request a truss quote. If you don’t get these questions answered upfront, you may find yourself facing change orders and problems down the road.

1. Will all the pages of The Architecture/Engineering Plans you provided for the Bid, be shown on the Contract/Proposal? This insures you are getting a Hard Number for what the Architect and/or Engineer designed or intended.
2. Will Special Conditions, Loadings, Wind Loads and Building Code be shown on your contract/proposal?
3. Will you be provided with a Preliminary Plan prior to Sealed Plans and Engineering’s?
4. Will you be provided with Final Truss Plans and Truss Engineering’s for approval prior to fabrication?
5. Will you accept changes made to your Architect or Engineer’s Plans? Consequently this will cost you money to have your plans revised and re-submitted to the Building Department. If No, than never, ever accept a contract/proposal that states your truss are bid,  per the truss company’s layout; make sure bid is based on the Architect/Structural plans provided.
