The TrueDecks® Advantage

Our Founder

Leadership Built on Integrity, Precision, & Vision

Back in 1999, Jose Ugalde was working as a pressure-washing technician and kept seeing the same problem over and over: high-pressure cleaning did more harm than good. He spent months tinkering in his garage, mixing solutions and dialing in the pressure until he landed on a method that lifted dirt and old sealant without harming the wood. That breakthrough became the PressureLess™ system and set the tone for everything TrueDecks does.

Today we’re still family owned and still hands-on with every project, whether we’re building a new deck or porch, laying a paver patio, installing a fence, or giving your wood surfaces a gentle wash and reseal. We blend honest pricing, top-quality materials and years of know-how so you can enjoy your outdoor space without surprises.
