Richard Larios : Founder
Construction is Richard's passion and first love. " I have been building something since I can remember", says Richard , owner of AZ DECK. By age 13, Richard helped his father build their home from the ground up. By age 16, Richard built his first outdoor kitchen in his dad's backyard. By age 18, Richard was Arizona's bricklaying champion in the 18 and under category. Between 19 and 30 years of age, Richard pursued his other love - teaching, and was employed at Mesa High School, Tempe High School, and eventually Glendale Community College. In addition, a little known fact about Richard is that he was employed with the Boy Scouts of America as a district executive helping young men grow to be strong self reliant young men.
​
At age 30, Richard decided to return to construction and founded AZ DECK. Since 1997, AZ DECK has been helping homeowners achieve their backyard dreams by either renovating their landscapes or their pools. These days, Richard can be found helping other entrepreneurs by growing AZ DECK to create jobs here in Arizona. Richard is also the founder of Hutfix.com, an online contractor directory, that connects homeowners and contractors. "It is a cross between Angie's List and Craig's List", says Richard.
​
On off days, Richard enjoys playing live music with his band, traveling, boating, and spending time with his two sons.
