Builders install piles; the maintenance crew oils decking

Meet the founder, our two construction crews, the maintenance crew, storekeeper and office manager. The project figures come from our work log, which recorded 1,456 jobs by the end of 2025, and from our pile installation records.

  • Tõnis Raidma in a dark green jacket by the office window. Plastic sheeting beneath a terrace can trap moisture under the decking.

    Tõnis Raidma

    Founder and manager, has been building terraces since 2008.

    Tõnis Raidma founded and manages Terrassiehitus Tallinn from Peetri, overseeing two construction crews and a maintenance crew. He writes our construction guides on screw pile foundations, checking site soil with a hand-auger test hole, and shelter frames designed for a snow load of 150 kg/m². Tõnis surveyed all 154 construction sites himself through the end of 2014, and his signature appears on all 795 construction contracts.

  • Ahto Rohtla in metal-framed glasses and a dark green jumper. He draws pile layouts on squared paper at a scale of 1:50.

    Ahto Rohtla

    First construction crew leader, with us since the 2009 season.

    Ahto Rohtla leads the first construction crew. He starts each site with a hand-auger test hole to identify sand, clay, fill or limestone, then records the soil type at the top of the pile record. Before fitting beams, he checks each pile's number, depth and final torque. Ahto has overseen 475 construction jobs and made 1,038 test holes.

  • Heiki Rätsep smiling in a rust-brown flannel shirt. Pergola slats extend 20 cm past the outer main beam.

    Heiki Rätsep

    Terrace builder, with us since the 2010 season.

    Heiki Rätsep builds shelters, pergolas and terrace roofs in the first construction crew. He sizes rafters and main beams for a snow load of 150 kg/m² and gives roofs a fall of 1.5 cm per metre away from the house. He cuts pergola slats at 45° and spaces them 4 cm apart. Heiki has built 63 shelters, pergolas and terrace roofs, plus 31 carports.

  • Madis Ristmets in a light grey T-shirt. A fireproof mat protects the grass from sparks when pile heads are cut.

    Madis Ristmets

    Terrace builder, with us since the 2018 season.

    Madis Ristmets installs screw piles with a colleague in the first construction crew. One operates the driver while the other keeps each pile plumb and watches for the 1,000 Nm target reading. Madis then laser-levels the heads, coats the cut edges with zinc paint and secures the beam seats with two M12 bolts. Since 2018, the pair have installed 2,396 piles.

  • Joosep Ruusmaa in a dark green T-shirt. He fixes decking to the joists with 5 × 60 mm terrace screws.

    Joosep Ruusmaa

    Terrace builder, with us since the 2023 season.

    Joosep Ruusmaa lays 28 mm decking over joists spaced 40 cm apart and treats each cut end before fitting. A 45° diagonal pattern adds one working day. Across the 2023, 2024 and 2025 seasons, he installed 1,574 m² of decking.

  • Marko Rannamäe in a green work jacket. A fine-toothed saw blade gives composite boards a clean cut edge.

    Marko Rannamäe

    Second construction crew leader, with us since the 2012 season.

    Marko Rannamäe leads the second construction crew, building composite terraces with concealed clips and aluminium frames spaced 60 cm apart. After the survey, he prepares an itemised quote for the foundation, frame, decking, railings and stairs. Since 2012, Marko has worked on 406 construction projects, and his crew has built 142 composite terraces.

  • Margus Reinvald in a rust-brown fleece. His terrace steps use 45 mm boards that resist bending underfoot.

    Margus Reinvald

    Terrace builder, with us since the 2016 season.

    Margus Reinvald builds larch and thermowood terraces in the second construction crew. He pre-drills fixing holes in thermowood, heat-treated at 185°C, to prevent board ends from splitting. He builds stairs with consistent 17 cm risers and 28 cm treads. Since 2016, Margus has built 74 larch and thermowood terraces and 219 staircases.

  • Lauri Raadik in glasses and a white shirt. Cardboard-tube formwork for the post base remains in the ground.

    Lauri Raadik

    Terrace builder, with us since the 2017 season.

    Lauri Raadik builds block and post foundations in the second construction crew. Blocks sit on crushed stone; poured concrete cures for seven days; shelter post bases reach 80 cm deep. He uses a level to assess terraces tilted by more than 1 cm per metre before installing new screw piles. Since 2017, he has set 486 blocks and 377 post bases and levelled 14 terraces.

  • Hendrik Riives in a dark green hoodie. Long composite boards are carried on edge to prevent them bending.

    Hendrik Riives

    Terrace builder, with us since the 2021 season.

    Hendrik Riives fits composite decking in the second construction crew, clipping boards with 6 mm gaps and capping their ends. For an extension, he leaves a 10 mm expansion gap between old and new decking, hidden beneath a cover board. Since 2021, he has installed 2,164 m² of composite decking and made nine terrace extensions.

  • Jaak Rammul in a pale work shirt. He applies the final oil coat early enough to dry before evening dew.

    Jaak Rammul

    Maintenance crew leader, with us since the 2014 season.

    Jaak Rammul leads the maintenance crew, restoring weathered pine by washing, drying and sanding first with 80-grit and then 120-grit paper. He applies two coats of oil four hours apart when the temperature is above 15°C and the next 24 hours are forecast to be dry. Jaak has led all 661 oiling and repair jobs handled by the crew and oiled 11,529 m² of decking.

  • Veiko Rõuk in a dark work shirt. Replacement decking is screwed down, as nails can work loose over time.

    Veiko Rõuk

    Maintenance specialist, with us since the 2016 season.

    Veiko Rõuk repairs terraces in the maintenance crew. He checks beams with a moisture meter: a reading above 20% in dry weather calls for replacement. Removed boards, railing parts and steps go in bags to our Peetri warehouse for sorting, even after a three-board repair. Since 2016, Veiko has completed 222 repairs and replaced 1,702 decking boards.

  • Mikk Roosimägi in a light grey hoodie. Longer pine offcuts become packing blocks at our Peetri warehouse.

    Mikk Roosimägi

    Storekeeper, with us from the 2020 season.

    At our Peetri warehouse, Mikk Roosimägi keeps the treated pine, beams, screw piles, fixings and composite boards organised. Made-to-order larch and thermowood wait there until construction starts. On weekdays, he shows customers the sample wall so they can see and feel the difference between larch and pine. Since 2020, Mikk has dispatched 3,613 screw piles.

  • Maarja Remmelgas in a brown jumper beside the office window. Each board on the sample wall has a square-metre price.

    Maarja Remmelgas

    Office manager, with us since the 2015 season.

    Maarja Remmelgas handles calls and form enquiries at our Peetri office, replying on the same working day. Confirmed construction orders start within 14 working days; for winter orders, that period begins on 1 April. For shelters over 20 m², she submits a building notice with the construction design and, after completion, a notice of use. Since 2015, Maarja has answered 4,873 enquiries and submitted 41 building notices.
