Deck Services

What deck building services do you offer?

We offer a full range of deck services to meet homeowners where they are—whether their deck needs a refresh or a full transformation. Our decking services include:

Deck resurfacing, where we replace the deck boards while keeping the existing framing if the structure is still solid and safe
Complete deck rebuilds, ideal for aging or structurally compromised decks
Railing replacement, including updates for safety, code compliance, and modern style

This flexibility allows us to recommend the most cost-effective and long-lasting solution for your specific deck.

What materials do you offer for new deck construction?

We build decks using:

Composite decking, known for durability, low maintenance, and long-term value
Pressure-treated wood, a more traditional and budget-friendly option

During our free estimate, we’ll walk through the pros and cons of each material so our clients can confidently choose what works best for their home, lifestyle, and budget.

How long does it take to build a new deck?

Every deck project is unique. Timeline depends on factors such as:

Deck size and layout
Material selection
Railing, stairs, or custom features
Weather conditions

Most deck projects range from several days to a couple of weeks. We provide a clear timeline before construction begins and keep our clients informed throughout the process.

Do you build custom decks for homeowners?

Yes—custom decks are kind of our thing. We design and build decks tailored to a client’s home, yard, and how they plan to use the space, whether that’s entertaining, relaxing, or creating a safe outdoor area for family and pets.

How do I know if my deck needs to be replaced?

Common signs you may need deck replacement include:

Rotted or soft boards
Splintering wood
Sagging or uneven framing
Visible water damage
Decks that are 20+ years old

In some cases, even if the deck looks okay, updated building codes may require changes to make it safe and compliant—especially depending on height and location.

Do you repair or replace existing decks?

Yes. We’ll assess your current deck and help you determine whether deck repair, resurfacing, or full replacement is the safest and smartest option.
