About the build

A deck contractor who starts with the house, not a package price

[COMPANY NAME] is a deck builder for homeowners in [CITY], [STATE]. We replace tired platforms, add the stairs a sloped lot needs, and build new decks when the backyard is doing nothing but growing weeds. [FOUNDING STORY: one or two sentences on who started the company and why.]

You will get a written scope after we stand on the lot. That scope names the footings, the ledger flashing, the board, the rail, and what happens to the old deck. If a repair is the smarter spend, we will say that too. Read more about how we work, or browse the project gallery.

How a deck project moves

Five steps, from the first visit to the warranty paperwork. Permit timing in [CITY] sits in the middle, and we do not skip it when the code requires a review.

  1. Step 01Consultation and site visit

    We measure the door, the grade, and the old deck if there is one. You leave with a clear sense of what has to be fixed and what is optional.

  2. Step 02Design and 3D plan

    You see dimensions, rail style, and stair location before anyone orders boards. [3D PLAN: name the drawings or model you actually give clients.]

  3. Step 03Permits and materials

    We prepare what [PERMIT OFFICE] asks for and order the frame, decking, and rail once the scope is signed.

  4. Step 04Construction

    Footings, ledger, frame, boards, rails, and stairs. We protect the house and leave the yard walkable at the end of each day when the site allows it.

  5. Step 05Final walkthrough and warranty

    We walk the deck with you, note anything still open, and hand you care instructions plus the workmanship warranty.

Materials we build with

The frame is usually pressure-treated lumber. The surface is a choice. Costs below are placeholders until you confirm local installed ranges.

Comparison of deck board materials
Material Look Upkeep Heat in full sun Planning cost
Trex Capped composite with a wood grain. Several lines, from simple to deeply embossed. Wash it. No stain schedule. Dark colors get hot. Lighter boards stay more comfortable. [CONFIRM PRICING]
TimberTech Capped composite and PVC options, including multi-width picture-frame borders. Wash it. Mind scratches from metal furniture. Same sun warning as other composites. [CONFIRM PRICING]
Azek Cellular PVC. Some lines look like painted wood, others like a timber board. Low. It does not swell the way raw lumber does. Can run warm in direct sun. [CONFIRM PRICING]
Pressure-treated Structural lumber you can stain the color you want. Clean and restain. Ignore it and it grays, checks, and cups. Closer to the air temperature once it is dry. [CONFIRM PRICING]
Cedar Straight grain. Left bare, it goes silver. Stained, it keeps a warmer color. A finish if you care about the color. Still needs airflow. Generally kinder underfoot than dark composite. [CONFIRM PRICING]
Ipe Dense hardwood with a tight grain. Oil it to hold the brown, or let it weather gray. Heavy boards stay relatively comfortable. [CONFIRM PRICING]

Who we build decks for

Most of our work is a single house. We also take calls from people who need the deck done before a buyer, a tenant, or an inspector shows up.

  • Homeowners

    A new deck, a safer stair, or a replacement for boards you no longer trust. We work around pets, gates, and the hose bib nobody wants buried.

  • Home builders

    Decks and landings that match the house you just framed. [BUILDER NOTE: say whether you take builder packages and how scheduling works.]

  • Property managers

    Repair lists for rentals where a loose rail is a liability. We can phase work so a unit stays usable when that is realistic.

  • HOAs

    Common-area decks and help for owners who need a design that will pass architectural review. Bring the guidelines to the visit.

  • Realtors prepping a listing

    A shaky deck can stall a sale. We can inspect, repair, or document why a replacement should be priced into the deal. Timing depends on [CURRENT LEAD TIME].

Questions homeowners ask

How much does a deck cost in [CITY]?

The price moves with size, height, stairs, railing style, demolition, site access, and the board you choose. A ground-level platform and a tall composite deck with cable rail are different projects. We do not publish one square-foot rate, because it would miss half the yards we see. Planning bands are marked [CONFIRM PRICING] in our deck cost guide. A site visit is how you get a number you can actually build from.

How long does it take to build a deck?

Most of the calendar is design, material lead time, and permit review, not only the days a crew is in the yard. After the scope is agreed, plan on [PERMIT REVIEW TIME] if [PERMIT OFFICE] must approve drawings, then [BUILD DURATION] for construction once materials are on site. The current opening for a typical project is [CURRENT LEAD TIME]. We will update that when you call, rather than leave a stale date on this page.

Do I need a permit to build a deck in [CITY]?

In [CITY], attached decks and decks taller than [PERMIT HEIGHT] generally need a permit from [PERMIT OFFICE]. A very low freestanding platform is the case people hope is exempt, and even that depends on the current rule for your address. We check before anyone digs, and we pull the permit when the job requires one.

Is composite or wood the better decking?

Composite boards such as Trex, TimberTech, and Azek cost more to install and need less seasonal finishing. Wood costs less at the start and needs cleaning plus a stain or sealer on a schedule you will actually keep. Shade, heat underfoot, and the look you want matter more than a blanket winner. We can set samples on your lot in the sun before you decide.

What deck material holds up in [CITY] weather?

It depends on [CLIMATE NOTES: summer heat, winter freeze, humidity, and how much shade the lot gets]. Full sun often points toward a lighter composite color. Deep shade and boards that never dry are harder on wood. We judge the yard in front of us, including airflow under the deck, instead of picking one brand for the whole city.

Do you offer financing?

[FINANCING: name the lender you work with, or say clearly that you do not offer financing.] The estimate still separates demolition, framing, decking, rails, stairs, and permit fees so you can see where the money goes.

What warranty do you offer on a new deck?

Labor we perform carries a [WARRANTY YEARS]-year workmanship warranty. Composite and PVC boards have a separate manufacturer warranty, and the term depends on the product line. We register boards when the brand requires it. Both documents should be in your hands before you sign. We will not quote a warranty length that is not in writing.

How soon can you start?

For a typical [CITY] project, the current lead time after a site visit and a signed scope is [CURRENT LEAD TIME]. Permit review and a backordered rail kit can move the start. Ask for the live date when you request an estimate.

Do you remove the old deck?

Yes, when the old frame is not worth saving. Removal, haul-away, and any rot where the ledger meets the house are separate lines on the estimate. If the frame is still sound, resurfacing can be the better spend. We will tell you which one we see.
